AMENDED AND RESTATED REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT




Exhibit 7.5

AMENDED AND RESTATED REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT


This Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement (this "Agreement")
is made and entered into as of September 15, 1996 (the "EFFECTIVE DATE") by and
between Checkfree Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "COMPANY"), and
Intuit Inc., a Delaware corporation ("INTUIT").


RECITALS

A. Intuit and the Company have entered into a certain Agreement and Plan
of Merger dated as of even date herewith (the "PLAN"), pursuant to which
Checkfree Acquisition Corporation II, a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company ("NEWCO"), is to be merged with and into Intuit
Services Corporation, a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Intuit ("SUB") in a statutory merger (the "MERGER").

B. Upon consummation of the Merger, Intuit, as Sub's sole stockholder,
will receive shares of the Common Stock of the Company upon the conversion of
the outstanding stock of Sub in the Merger. As a condition to the consummation
of the Merger, the Plan provides that Intuit shall be granted certain
registration rights with respect to the shares of the Company's Common Stock to
be issued to it in the Merger, all as more fully set forth herein.

C. This Agreement amends, restates, and supersedes that certain
Registration Rights Agreement dated as of September 15, 1996 previously entered
into by the parties (the "PRIOR REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT").

1. REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

1.1 Definitions. For purposes of this Section 1:

(a) Registration. The terms "REGISTER," "REGISTERED," and
"REGISTRATION" refer to a registration effected by preparing and filing a
registration statement in compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "SECURITIES ACT"), and the declaration or ordering of effectiveness of such
registration statement.

(b) Registrable Securities. The term "REGISTRABLE SECURITIES"
means: (1) all the shares of Common Stock of the Company issued to Intuit in the
Merger pursuant to the Plan, and (2) any shares of Common Stock of the Company
issued as (or issuable upon the conversion or exercise of any warrant, right or
other security which is issued as) a dividend or other distribution with respect
to, or in exchange for, or in replacement of, all such shares of Common Stock of
the Company described in clause (1) of this subsection (b); excluding in all
cases, however, any Registrable Securities sold by a person in a transaction in
which rights under



this Section 1 are not assigned in accordance with this Agreement or any
Registrable Securities sold to the public or sold pursuant to Rule 144
promulgated under the Securities Act.

(c) SEC. The term "SEC" or "COMMISSION" means the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission.

(d) Effective Time; Nasdaq NM. The terms "EFFECTIVE TIME" and
"NASDAQ NM" shall have the same respective meanings that are given to such terms
in the Plan.

1.2 Demand Registration.

(a) Request by Intuit. If the Company shall receive at any
time after the closing of the Merger a written request ("REQUEST") from Intuit
that the Company file a registration statement under the Securities Act covering
the registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 1.2, then
the Company shall effect, as soon as practicable, the registration under the
Securities Act of all Registrable Securities which Intuit requests to be
registered in the Request, subject only to the limitations of this Section 1.2;
provided, that the Registrable Securities requested by Intuit to be registered
pursuant to such request must be at least twenty percent (20%) of the
Registrable Securities issued to Intuit in the Merger; provided, however, that
the first such request for registration under this Section 1.2(a) ("FIRST
REQUEST") may be for such lesser number of shares of Registrable Securities as
would reduce Intuit's ownership of the Company's Common Stock to less than
twenty percent (20%) of the shares of the Company's Common Stock outstanding
after such sale. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if due to action by an
underwriter as provided in Section 1.2(b), or for any other reason beyond
Intuit's control (including, but not limited to, actions by Checkfree or any
Checkfree stockholder, or any agreement to which Checkfree is a party), Intuit
is prevented from registering the minimum number of Registrable Securities
required for Intuit to request a registration of Registrable Securities under
this Section 1.2, then Intuit shall nevertheless be entitled to have registered
pursuant to this Section 1.2, such lesser number of Registrable Securities as it
is able to register. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the First Request may be
given by Intuit to the Company prior to the Effective Time, and if the First
Request is given to the Company prior to the Effective Time, then the Company
shall (i) immediately begin preparation of the registration statement to be used
to register the Registrable Securities to be covered in the registration that is
the subject of the First Request (the "FIRST REGISTRATION"); and (ii) use its
best efforts to file the registration statement for the First Registration with
the SEC as soon as practicable after the Effective Time.

(b) Underwriting. The Registrable Securities covered by the
Request may be offered by means of an underwriting if Intuit so requests, and
Intuit shall so advise the Company as a part of its Request. If an underwriting
is requested by Intuit in its Request, then Intuit and the Company shall enter
into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter
or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the mutual agreement of the
Company and Intuit; provided, that neither the Company nor Intuit shall
unreasonably refuse to agree to a managing underwriter selected by the other,
but shall in good faith attempt to select



mutually agreeable managing underwriters. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Section 1.2, if the underwriters advise the Company in writing that
marketing factors require a limitation of the number of securities to be
underwritten, then the Company shall so advise Intuit, and the number of
Registrable Securities that may be included in the underwriting shall be reduced
as required by the underwriters; provided, however, that the number of shares of
Registrable Securities to be included in such underwriting and registration
shall not be reduced unless all other securities of the Company and any other
selling securityholder are first entirely excluded from the underwriting and
registration. Any Registrable Securities excluded and withdrawn from such
underwriting shall be withdrawn from the registration.

(c) Maximum Number of Demand Registrations. The Company
is obligated to effect only one (1) such registration pursuant to this
Section 1.2 per calendar year, commencing with 1997.

(d) Expenses. Intuit shall bear all discounts, commissions or
other amounts payable to underwriters or brokers with respect to the sale of
Registrable Securities by Intuit in such offering, as well as Intuit's Pro Rata
Share (as that term is defined below) of one-half of all other expenses incurred
in connection with a registration pursuant to this Section 1.2, including
without limitation all federal and "blue sky" registration and qualification
fees, printers' and accounting fees, fees and disbursements of counsel for the
Company and for Intuit. As used in this Section 1.2(d), Intuit's "PRO RATA
SHARE" with respect to an offering, means the percentage obtained by dividing
(i) the number of shares of the Company's Common Stock registered and sold by
Intuit in such offering by (ii) the total number of shares of the Company's
Common Stock sold in such offering by all parties (including Intuit) other than
the Company.

(e) Rights of the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Section 1.2 or otherwise in this Agreement, the Company shall
not be obligated to take any action to effect any such registration pursuant to
this Section 1.2 as follows:

(i) In any particular jurisdiction in which the
Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process in
effecting such registration unless the Company is already subject to service in
such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act;

(ii) If the Company, within ten (10) days of the
receipt of a registration Request of Intuit under Section 1.2, gives written
notice to Intuit of the Company's bona fide intention to effect the filing,
within thirty (30) days of receipt of such Request, of a registration statement
with the Commission for the sale of securities by the Company (other than with
respect to a registration statement relating to a Rule 145 transaction, an
offering solely to employees or any other registration which is not appropriate
for the registration of Registrable Securities), in which event, (x) Intuit
shall be entitled to exercise its piggyback registration rights under Section
1.3 hereof with respect to such registration, (y) the Company shall be required
in good faith to employ all reasonable efforts to cause its registration
statement to become effective and to give prompt written notice to Intuit if the
Company abandons its effort to file or causes its registration statement to
become effective, and (z) in the event the Company gives notice that it



has abandoned its registration statement efforts, the Company shall promptly
renew its best efforts to register the Registrable Securities that were the
subject of Intuit's demand registration Request if so requested in writing by
Intuit within ten (10) days after Intuit's receipt of notice that the Company
has abandoned its registration efforts;

(iii) During the period starting with the filing of
and ending on the date ninety (90) days immediately following the effective date
of any registration statement pertaining to securities of the Company (other
than a registration of securities in a Rule 145 transaction or with respect to
an employee benefit plan), provided that the Company is actively employing in
good faith all reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become
effective;

(iv) If the Company shall furnish to Intuit a
certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that in the good
faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company it would be seriously
detrimental, for the specific reasons stated in such certificate, to the Company
or its shareholders for a registration statement to be filed in the near future,
then the Company's obligation to use its best efforts to register under this
Section 1.2 shall be deferred for a period not to exceed one hundred and twenty
(120) days from the date of receipt of the written Request from Intuit; provided
that the Company may not exercise this right with respect to the registration
requested by the First Request if such First Request is received by the Company
on or before March 1, 1997; or

(v) Unless at least one hundred and eighty (180)
days shall have expired from the effectiveness of a previous registration of
Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 1.2, or pursuant to a previous
registration under Section 1.3 below in which Intuit was given the opportunity
to include in such registration at least the lesser of (i) five percent (5%) of
the Registrable Securities issued to Intuit in the Merger, or (ii) all
Registrable Securities then owned by Intuit.

Subject to the foregoing clauses (i) through (v), the Company shall file a
registration statement covering the Registrable Securities so requested to be
registered as soon as practicable after receipt of the request or requests of
Intuit.

1.3 Piggyback Registrations. The Company shall notify Intuit in
writing at least twenty (20) days prior to filing any registration statement
under the Securities Act for purposes of effecting a public offering of
securities of the Company (including, but not limited to, registration
statements relating to secondary offerings of securities of the Company, but
excluding registration statements relating solely to any registration under
Section 1.2 of this Agreement or any employee benefit plan or a Rule 145
transaction) and will afford Intuit, subject to the terms and conditions set
forth herein, an opportunity to include in such registration statement all or
any part of the Registrable Securities then held by Intuit. Intuit shall, within
five (5) business days after receipt of the above-described notice from the
Company, so notify the Company in writing, and in such notice shall inform the
Company of the number of Registrable Securities Intuit wishes to include in such
registration statement. If Intuit decides not to include all of its Registrable
Securities in any registration statement thereafter filed by the Company,



Intuit shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include any Registrable
Securities not included in such registration statement in any subsequent
registration statement or registration statements as may be filed by the Company
with respect to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and conditions
set forth herein. If Intuit is given the opportunity to include in any
registration statement filed under this Section 1.3 at least the lesser of (i)
five percent (5%) of the Registrable Securities issued to Intuit in the Merger,
or (ii) all Registrable Securities then owned by Intuit, then Intuit shall not
make a request for registration under Section 1.2 hereof for at least one
hundred and eighty (180) days after the earlier of the termination of such
offering or the effectiveness of such registration statement.

(a) Underwriting. If a registration statement under which the
Company gives notice under this Section 1.3 is for an underwritten offering,
then the Company shall so advise Intuit. In such event, Intuit's right to
include Registrable Securities in a registration pursuant to this Section 1.3
shall be conditioned upon Intuit's participation in such underwriting and the
inclusion of Intuit's Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent
provided herein. Intuit shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary
form with the managing underwriter or underwriters selected for such
underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the
managing underwriter determines in good faith that marketing factors require a
limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the managing
underwriters may exclude shares (including Registrable Securities) from the
registration and the underwriting, and the number of shares that may be included
in the registration and the underwriting shall be allocated, first, to the
Company, and second, to Intuit; provided, however, that the right of the
underwriters to exclude shares (including Registrable Securities) from the
registration and underwriting as described above shall be restricted so that:
(i) the number of Registrable Securities included in any such registration is
not reduced below twenty percent (20%) of the shares included in the
registration; and (ii) all shares that are not Registrable Securities and are
held by other shareholders of the Company, (except those shareholders with
registration rights that, as of the Effective Date of the Plan, are senior to or
on a pari passu basis with those of Intuit and are disclosed to Intuit in the
Plan or any disclosure letter delivered to Intuit pursuant to the Plan), shall
first be excluded from such registration and underwriting before any Registrable
Securities are so excluded. If Intuit disapproves of the terms of any such
underwriting, Intuit may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the
Company and the managing underwriter, delivered at least ten (10) business days
prior to the effective date of the registration statement. Any Registrable
Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be excluded and
withdrawn from the registration.

(b) Expenses. Intuit shall bear all discounts, commissions or
other amounts payable to underwriters or brokers with respect to the sale of
Registrable Securities by Intuit in any offering registered under this Section
1.3 and fees and disbursements of counsel for Intuit in connection with such
offering. All other expenses incurred in connection with a registration pursuant
to this Section 1.3, including, without limitation all federal and "blue sky"
registration and qualification fees, printers' and accounting fees, and fees and
disbursements of counsel for the Company shall be borne by the Company.



1.4 Shelf Registration. As soon as practicable after the Effective
Time (but not later than ten (10) business days after the Effective Time), the
Company shall file a registration statement on Form S-3 for a continuous
registered shelf offering under Rule 415 of the Securities Act (the "SHELF
REGISTRATION STATEMENT") covering the registration of all Registrable Securities
(the "SHELF REGISTERED SECURITIES"). The Company shall use its best efforts to
cause the Shelf Registration Statement and the registration of the Shelf
Registered Securities thereunder to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as
practicable following the Effective Time, and shall continuously maintain the
effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement at all times following the
Effective Time until the second (2nd) anniversary of the Effective Time.
Intuit's right to offer and sell Shelf Registered Securities pursuant to the
Shelf Registration Statement shall be subject to the following limitations:

(a) Limitation on Amount of Securities Sold. For as long as
Intuit may be an affiliate of the Company as defined in the Securities Act, the
amount of Shelf Registered Securities that may be sold by Intuit in each sale of
Shelf Registered Securities in reliance on the Shelf Registration Statement
under this Section 1.4, together with all sales of other shares of the Company's
Common Stock for the account of Intuit within the preceding three months
(excluding any sales of the Company's Common Stock by Intuit pursuant to
registrations filed pursuant to Section 1.2 or 1.3 of this Agreement), shall not
exceed the greater of (i) one percent (1%) of the shares of the Company's Common
Stock outstanding as shown by the most recent report or statement published by
the Company, or (ii) the average weekly reported volume of trading in shares of
the Company's Common Stock on all national securities exchanges and/or reported
through the automated quotation system of a registered securities association
during the four calendar weeks preceding Intuit's delivery to the Company of the
notice required by Section 1.4(b).

(b) Notice of Proposed Sale. Intuit shall give the Company
written notice of its bona fide intention to sell Shelf Registered Securities
pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement at least seven (7) business days in
advance of the proposed date of sale, and the Company shall act as soon as
practicable to make any necessary filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission and regulatory bodies as may be necessary to permit the sale of the
Shelf Registered Securities in accordance with Section 1.4(a).

(c) Minimum Amount of Securities Sold. Each request to sell
Shelf Registered Securities under this Section 1.4 shall be for such number of
shares of the Company's Common Stock having an aggregate sale price of at least
$250,000.

(d) Expenses. Intuit shall bear all discounts, commissions or
other amounts payable to underwriters or brokers and fees and disbursements of
counsel for Intuit in connection with sales of Shelf Registered Securities by
Intuit. All other expenses incurred in connection with a sale of Shelf
Registered Securities pursuant to this Section 1.4, including, without
limitation all federal and "blue sky" registration and qualification fees,
printers' and accounting fees, and fees and disbursements of counsel for the
Company shall be borne by the Company.



(e) Curative Measures. If for any reason the Shelf
Registration Statement ceases to be effective at any time prior to the second
(2nd) anniversary of the Effective Time, then the Company shall use its best
efforts to cause the Shelf Registration Statement (or a new shelf registration
statement conforming to the provisions of this Section 1.4) to be declared
effective by the SEC and remain effective until the second (2nd) anniversary of
the Effective Time.

1.5 Obligations of the Company. Whenever required to effect the
registration of any Registrable Securities under this Agreement, and except as
otherwise provided in this Section or otherwise in this Agreement, the Company
shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:

(a) Prepare promptly and file with the SEC a registration
statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its best efforts
to cause such registration statement to become effective, and, keep such
registration statement effective (i) with respect to a registration statement
filed pursuant to Section 1.2 or 1.3 hereof, for ninety (90) days (or until the
earlier sale of the Registrable Securities covered thereby), and (ii) with
respect to a shelf registration statement filed pursuant to Section 1.4 hereof,
until the second (2nd) anniversary of the Effective Time, which registration
statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses
contained therein) shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to
make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were
made, not misleading.

(b) Prepare promptly and file with the SEC such amendments and
supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection
with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the
provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all
securities covered by such registration statement.

(c) Furnish to Intuit such number of copies of a prospectus,
including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the
Securities Act, and such other documents as it may reasonably request in order
to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by it that are
included in such registration.

(d) Use its best efforts to register and qualify the
securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or
Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by Intuit,
provided, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a
condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to
service of process in any such states or jurisdictions.

(e) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter
into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and
customary form, with the managing underwriters of such offering.

(f) Notify Intuit at any time when a prospectus relating to
the Registrable Securities is required to be delivered under the Securities Act
of the happening of any



event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration
statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or
omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances
then existing.

(g) Furnish, at the request of Intuit, on the date that such
Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale, if such
securities are being sold through underwriters, or, if such securities are not
being sold through underwriters, on the date that the registration statement
with respect to such securities becomes effective, (i) an opinion, dated as of
such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such
registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in
an underwritten public offering and reasonably satisfactory to Intuit, addressed
to the underwriters, if any, and to Intuit, and (ii) a "comfort" letter dated as
of such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company,
in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public
accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering and reasonably
satisfactory to a Intuit, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to Intuit.

(h) Make generally available to its security holders as soon
as practical, but not later than ninety (90) days after the close of the period
covered thereby, an earnings statement (in form complying with the provisions of
Rule 158 promulgated under the Securities Act) covering a twelve-month period
beginning not later than the first day of the Company's fiscal quarter next
following the effective date of any registration statement and any
post-effective amendment thereto.

(i) Make available for inspection by Intuit, any underwriter
participating in any underwritten offering of Registrable Securities, and any
attorney, accountant or other agent retained by Intuit or any such underwriter
(collectively, the "INSPECTORS"), all pertinent documents of the Company
(collectively, the "RECORDS"), as shall be reasonably necessary to enable each
Inspector to exercise its due diligence responsibility, if and to the extent it
has any such responsibility under the Securities Act, and cause the Company's
officers, directors and employees to supply all information which any Inspector
may reasonably request for purposes of exercising such due diligence; provided,
however, that each Inspector shall hold in confidence and shall not make any
disclosure (except to Intuit) of any Record or other non-public information
relating to the Company received by such Inspector unless (i) the disclosure of
such Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any
Registration Statement, (ii) the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to
a subpoena or other order from a court or government body of competent
jurisdiction or (iii) the information in such Records has been made generally
available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this or any
other agreement; and provided, further, however, that in the event Intuit
obtains material nonpublic information concerning the Company pursuant to this
Section 1.5(i) or Section 1.5(a) or (f) or otherwise, such Inspector shall not
purchase or sell or otherwise trade in any securities of the Company in
violation of applicable law until such information is made public by the
Company. The Company shall not be required to disclose any confidential
information in such Records to any Inspector until and unless such Inspector
shall have entered into a confidentiality agreement (in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Company) with the Company



with respect thereto, substantially in the form of this Section 1.5(i). Intuit
agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in
or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction, give prompt notice
to the Company and allow the Company, at its expense, to undertake appropriate
action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, the
Records deemed confidential.

(j) Use its best efforts either to (i) cause all the
Registrable Securities covered by any registration statement to be listed on a
national securities exchange, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is
then permitted under the rules of such exchange, or (ii) secure the quotation of
the Registrable Securities on the Nasdaq NM if such quotation is then permitted
under the rules of the Nasdaq NM.

(k) Provide a transfer agent and registrar, which may be a
single entity, for the Registrable Securities not later than the effective date
of any registration statement.

(l) Cooperate with Intuit and the managing underwriter or
underwriters of any offering involving Registrable Securities, if any, to
facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any
restrictive legends) representing Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to
a registration effected hereto, and enable such certificates to be in such
denominations or amounts as the case may be, and registered in such names as the
managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, or Intuit, may reasonable request.

(m) Take all other reasonable actions necessary to expedite
and facilitate disposition by Intuit of the Registrable Securities pursuant to
the registration statement.

1.6 Furnish Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the
obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to Sections 1.2, 1.3, or
1.4 that Intuit shall furnish to the Company such information regarding it, the
Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of
such securities as shall be required to timely effect the registration of its
Registrable Securities.

1.7 Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Securities are
included in a registration statement under Sections 1.2, 1.3, or 1.4:

(a) By the Company. To the extent permitted by law, the
Company will indemnify and hold harmless Intuit, officers and directors of
Intuit, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for Intuit and each
person, if any, who controls Intuit or such underwriter within the meaning of
the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934
ACT"), against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to
which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the 1934 Act or other
federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities
(or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the
following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a "VIOLATION"):



(i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of
a material fact contained in a registration statement filed pursuant
to this Section 1, including any preliminary prospectus or final
prospectus contained therein or in any amendments or supplements
thereto;

(ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in a
registration statement filed pursuant to this Section 1 (including
any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or
in any amendments or supplements thereto), a material fact required
to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading; or

(iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company
of the Securities Act, the 1934 Act, any federal or state securities
law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act,
the 1934 Act or any federal or state securities law in connection
with the offering covered by such registration statement;

and the Company will reimburse each of Intuit, such officer or director,
underwriter or controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by them, as incurred, in connection with investigating or defending any
such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the
indemnity agreement contained in this subsection 1.7(a) shall not apply to
amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action
if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Company be liable in any such
case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action to the extent that it
arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection
with such registration by Intuit, or by such, officer, director, underwriter or
controlling person of Intuit.

(b) By Intuit. To the extent permitted by law, Intuit will
indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its
officers who have signed the registration statement, each person, if any, who
controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any
underwriter, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or
several) to which the Company or any such director, officer, controlling person
or underwriter may become subject under the Securities Act, the 1934 Act or
other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any
Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such
Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information
furnished by Intuit expressly for use in connection with such registration; and
Intuit will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the
Company or any such director, officer, controlling person, underwriter in
connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained
in this subsection 1.7(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any
such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected
without the consent of Intuit, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld;
and provided, further, that the total amounts payable in indemnity by Intuit
under this



Section 1.7(b) in respect of any Violation shall not exceed the net proceeds
received by Intuit in the registered offering out of which such Violation
arises.

(c) Notice. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party
under this Section 1.7 of notice of the commencement of any action (including
any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim for
indemnification in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party
under this Section 1.7, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of
the commencement of such an action and the indemnifying party shall have the
right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires,
jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the
defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided,
however, that an indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own
counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if
representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the
indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflict of
interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such
counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the
indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such
action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such
indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section
1.7, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party
will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party
otherwise than under this Section 1.7.

(d) Defect Eliminated in Final Prospectus. The foregoing
indemnity agreements of the Company and Intuit are subject to the condition
that, insofar as they relate to any Violation made in a preliminary prospectus
but eliminated or remedied in the amended prospectus on file with the SEC at the
time the registration statement in question becomes effective or in the amended
prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to SEC Rule 424(b) (the "FINAL
PROSPECTUS"), such indemnity agreements shall not inure to the benefit of any
person if a copy of the Final Prospectus was furnished to the indemnified party
and was not furnished to the person asserting the loss, liability, claim or
damage at or prior to the time such action is required by the Securities Act.

(e) Contribution. In order to provide for just and equitable
contribution to joint liability under the Securities Act in any case in which
either (i) Intuit (and/or any officer, director, underwriter or controlling
person who may be indemnified under Section 1.7(a)), makes a claim for
indemnification pursuant to this Section 1.7 but it is judicially determined (by
the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and
the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that
such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact
that this Section 1.7 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii)
contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of Intuit
(and/or any officer, director, underwriter or controlling person who may be
indemnified under Section 1.7(a)) in circumstances for which indemnification is
provided under this Section 1.7; then, and in each such case, the Company and
Intuit (and/or such other person) will contribute to the aggregate losses,
claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution
from others) in proportion to their relative fault as determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction; provided, however, that in no event (i) shall Intuit be
responsible



for more than the portion represented by the percentage that the public offering
price of the Registrable Securities offered and sold by Intuit under the
registration statement bears to the public offering price of all securities
offered and sold under such registration statement and (ii) shall Intuit be
required to contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price of all
such Registrable Securities offered and sold by Intuit pursuant to such
registration statement; and in any event, no person or entity guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the
Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who
was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(f) Survival. The obligations of the Company and Intuit under
this Section 1.7 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable
Securities in a registration statement, and otherwise.

1.8 Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits
of certain rules and regulations of the Commission which may at any time permit
the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, for
so long as Intuit owns any Registrable Securities, the Company agrees to:

(a) Make and keep public information available, as those terms
are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, at all times;

(b) File with the Commission in a timely manner all
reports and other documents required of the Company under the 1934 Act; and

(c) So long as Intuit owns any Registrable Securities, to
furnish to Intuit forthwith upon request a written statement by the Company as
to its compliance with the reporting requirements of said Rule 144, a copy of
the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other
reports and documents of the Company as Intuit may reasonably request in
availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing a Holder to
sell any such securities without registration.

1.9 Termination of the Company's Obligations. The Company shall have
no obligations to register Registrable Securities held by Intuit (i) if all
Registrable Securities have been registered and sold pursuant to registrations
effected pursuant to this Agreement, or (ii) after the fifth anniversary of the
Effective Time of the Merger; provided, however, that if the Company defers a
demand registration pursuant to Section 1.2(e)(iv), then the expiration date
under this clause (ii) shall be extended for one year for each occasion on which
the Company has exercised such rights.

1.10 Preference to Outstanding Registration Rights. The Company has
previously entered into agreements dated as of May 6, 1996 granting to certain
holders of Common Stock of the Company issued in connection with the acquisition
of Security APL, Inc. registration rights with respect to such securities that
provides, that until May 9, 1998, the Company shall not enter into any agreement
granting any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company
registration rights with respect to such securities unless such new



agreement specifies that the rights of such holders under the May 6, 1996
agreements shall have preference to the holders of such new registration rights.
Accordingly, Intuit acknowledges that its registration rights under this
Agreement are subordinate to the registration rights granted under the May 6,
1996 agreements.

1.11 Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights. From and after
the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written
consent of Intuit, enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective
holder of any securities of the Company which would allow such holder or
prospective holder (a) to include such securities in any registration filed
under Section 1.2, 1.3, or 1.4 hereof, unless under the terms of such agreement,
such holder or prospective holder may include such securities in any such
registration only to the extent that the inclusion of his securities will not
reduce the amount of the Registrable Securities of Intuit which is included, or
(b) to make a demand registration which could result in such registration
statement being declared effective (i) during the effectiveness of any
registration statement effected pursuant to Section 1.2, or (ii) within one
hundred twenty (120) days of the effective date of any registration effected
pursuant to Section 1.2.

2. ASSIGNMENT.

2.1 Assignment. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the
registration rights of Intuit under Section 1 hereof may be assigned only to (a)
a party who acquires a number of shares of Company Common Stock equal to at
least fifty percent (50%) of the shares of Common Stock that constituted the
original number of Registrable Securities (as such number may be adjusted to
reflect subdivisions, combinations and stock dividends of the Company's Common
Stock) or (b) any party who acquires ownership or control of Intuit through a
merger, consolidation, sale of assets or similar business combination; provided,
however that no party may be assigned any of the foregoing rights until the
Company is given written notice by the assigning party at the time of such
assignment stating the name and address of the assignee and identifying the
securities of the Company as to which the rights in question are being assigned;
and provided further, that any such assignee shall receive such assigned rights
subject to all the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without
limitation the provisions of this Section 2.

the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may
be, for such period of time (not to exceed ninety (90) days) from the effective
date of such registration as may be requested by the underwriters; provided,
that if any officer or director of the Company who owns at least one percent
(1%) of the outstanding voting equity securities of the Company does not agree
to such restrictions, then Intuit shall not be required to do so either; and
