<P><FONT SIZE=2>Ladies

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
connection with my request that you authorize the removal of legends reflecting restrictions imposed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), which legends have been
placed on the stock certificate(s) listed on </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Exhibit&nbsp;A</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> hereto, representing shares of the Common Stock (the "Stock") of QRS Corporation (the
"Company"), I hereby certify as follows: </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
of the date of this letter, I have been the beneficial owner of the Stock (including, if applicable, any Preferred Stock that was converted into all of part of the
Stock) for a period of at least two years as determined under SEC Rule&nbsp;144(d) under the Act, and the full purchase price for the Stock (including, if applicable, any Preferred Stock that was
converted into all or part of the Stock) was paid in cash at least two years prior to the date of this letter; </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During
the foregoing two-year period, I have not had a short position in, or any put or other option to dispose of, the Stock or any part thereof (including,
if applicable, any Preferred Stock that was converted into all or part of the Stock), any other shares of the Company's Common Stock or any securities convertible into such Common Stock; </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I
am not an "affiliate" of the Company as defined by Rule&nbsp;144(a)(1) of the Act and have not been such an affiliate at any time during the past three months. I am
aware that an affiliate is a person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, the Company; and </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You
and your counsel may rely on the representations contained herein in authorizing the issuance of unlegended stock certificates representing the Stock. </FONT></P>
