We desire to resolve any and all issues relating to your employment and the conclusion of your employment with the Company amicably and on mutually satisfactory terms.

Reimburse You for the cost of conversion of the S1 group term Life Insurance policy to an individual policy during the Severance Period.

All payments will be subject to applicable withholdings, including taxes and Social Security. The Company’s obligation to pay the amounts set forth in sub-paragraph (a) and (b) above shall terminate immediately upon any material breach by You of this Agreement.

2. Release. In consideration for the separation benefits set forth in Section A(1) above, You hereby fully and forever release and discharge the Company from any and all liability for any claim, duty, obligation, debt, covenant, cause of action or damages (collectively “Claims”), whether presently known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, that You ever had, may have had or now have arising from any omission, act or fact that has occurred up to and including the date You sign this Agreement.

(“ADEA”), or the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, 29 U.S.C. § 621 et seq. (“OWBPA”) (such release and waiver to be referred to as the “Waiver”). You understand and agree that:

	(ii)		You do not release or waive rights or claims that may arise after You sign this Agreement;

	(iv)		You have been advised to consult with an attorney before signing this Agreement;

	(v)		You have 21 days (the “Offer Period”) from receipt of this Agreement to consider whether to sign it.

If You revoke, the Agreement shall not be effective or enforceable and You shall not be entitled to the separation benefits stated above. To be effective, the revocation must be in writing and received by Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx, VP Human Resources at S1 Corporation, 0000 Xxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx 00000, or her successor, within the Revocation Period; and

(vii)

this Waiver will not become effective or enforceable until the Revocation Period has expired; and

B. Your Ongoing Obligations

1. Return of Company Property. You will, on the Separation Date, return to the Company all of the Company’s property, including, but not limited to, computers, computer equipment, office equipment, cell phone, keys, passcards, calling cards, credit cards, customer lists, rolodexes, tapes, software, computer files, marketing and sales materials, and any other record, document or piece of equipment belonging to the Company, except for Your laptop computer furnished to You by the Company, with respect to which You have agreed that the Company may remove all confidential and Company proprietary information stored therein. You will not retain any copies of the Company’s property, including any copies existing in electronic form, which are in Your possession or control. You acknowledge that You have not and will not destroy, delete, or alter any Company property without the Company’s consent.

2. Non-Disparagement. You will not make any false, disparaging, defamatory or derogatory statements, whether written or verbal, regarding the Company, including without limitation statements about the Company’s business affairs, financial condition and/or employees.

3. Future Employment. You agree that the Company has no obligation to consider You for employment should You apply in the future.

4. Effect on Stock Options. Set forth on Exhibit C is a true, correct and complete list of all options held by You to purchase common stock of S1 Corporation (the “Stock Options”). The Stock Options, to the extent not currently vested and exercisable, shall become vested and exercisable in accordance with Section 9(d)(v)(B) of that certain Employment Agreement, dated April 30, 2001, by and between You and the Company (the “Employment Agreement”), and shall otherwise remain subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable option agreements. By way of clarification, in accordance with such Section 9(d)(v)(B) of the Employment Agreement, all Stock Options that would otherwise vest if You continued to be employed by the Company during the twenty-four months following the Separation Date shall become vested and exercisable as of the Separation Date.

C. General Provisions

1. No Admission of Liability. This Agreement is not an admission of liability by the Company or You. The Company denies any liability whatsoever. The Company enters into this Agreement to reach a mutual agreement concerning Your separation from the Company.

2. Waiver. The Company’s failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall not act as a waiver of that or any other provision. The Company’s waiver of any breach of this Agreement shall not act as a waiver of any other breach.

3. Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are severable. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be unenforceable, in whole or in part, then such provision shall be modified so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law. If such provision cannot be modified to be enforceable, the provision shall be severed from this Agreement to the extent unenforceable. The remaining provisions and any partially enforceable provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

4. Governing Law. The laws of the State of North Carolina shall govern this Agreement. If North Carolina’s conflict of law rules would apply another state’s laws, the Parties agree that North Carolina law shall still govern.

5. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, your option agreements, and the Covenants Agreement executed by You contemporaneously with this Agreement (collectively, the “Agreements”) constitute the entire agreement between the Parties. The Covenants Agreement is incorporated by reference, and any post-termination obligations

contained in the Covenants Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, and shall survive cessation of Your employment. You acknowledge that the post-termination obligations contained in the Covenants Agreement are valid, enforceable and reasonably necessary to protect the interests of the Company, and You agree to abide by such obligations. These Agreements supersede any prior communications, agreements or understandings, whether oral or written, between the Parties arising out of or relating to Your employment and the termination of that employment. Other than this Agreement, no other representation, promise or agreement has been made with You to cause You to sign this Agreement. The Employment Agreement is hereby terminated and canceled and shall be of no further force or effect as of the Separation Date, except for the provisions of Section 9(d)(v)(B) thereof, which shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. Likewise, that certain Confidentiality, Non-Disclosure and Non-Competition Agreement dated April 30, 2001 between You and the Company is hereby terminated and canceled and shall be of no further force or effect as of the Separation Date.

6. Amendments. This Agreement may not be amended or modified except in writing signed by both Parties.

7. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be assignable to, and shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon the Company’s successors and assigns, including, without limitation, successors through merger, name change, consolidation, or sale of a majority of the Company’s stock or assets, and shall be binding upon You and Your heirs and assigns.

8. Share Repurchase. Excluding shares held in Your 401(k) account, as of November 8, 2006, You and Your spouse currently own 612 shares of common stock of the Company (together with any shares of common stock of the Company You receive upon the exercise of the Stock Options prior to the earlier of (x) the “Put Expiration Date” and (y) the “Put Exercise Date” (each as defined below), the “Shares”). From the date which is 11 business days following the date of termination of the modified “Dutch Auction” tender offer as currently contemplated by the Company (the “Issuer Tender Offer”) until sixty (60) days following the date of termination of the Issuer Tender Offer (the “Put Expiration Date”), You shall have a one-time option (the “Put”), exercisable on not less than ten business days written notice to the Company’s chief legal officer (the date of such notice being the “Put Exercise Date”), to require the Company to, subject to applicable law, repurchase any or all of the Shares at a price per share equal to the greater of (i) $4.75 and (ii) the price paid by the Company in the Issuer Tender Offer, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest, and the Company hereby agrees to make such purchase if You exercise the Put, subject to applicable law; provided however, that if the Company elects not to conduct the Issuer Tender Offer, the Put may be exercised at $4.75 as aforesaid from ten business days following the Company’s announcement of its decision not to conduct the Issuer Tender Offer until thirty calendar days after the date of such announcement. You acknowledge and agree that the Shares are, and will be at the time of repurchase, free and clear of any liens, pledges, security interests, claims, options, rights of first refusal, co-sale rights, charges or other encumbrances of any kind or nature (“Encumbrances”). You shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Company, against payment therefore, stock certificates representing the Shares, free and clear of all Encumbrances. Nothing contained herein shall require You to exercise the Put, it being Your option.

9. Certain Acknowledgments. The Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) as part of the Company’s agreement to pay You a commuter allowance during the time You served as CEO of the Company, the Company will reimburse You for the actual and reasonable moving expenses with respect to moving Your personal property out of the apartment in Atlanta, Georgia You leased in connection with Your employment with the Company to your home in Wilmington, N.C.; and (ii) that the Company presently maintains directors and officers liability insurance coverage that would cover You, subject to the limitations and exclusions contained therein, for claims that arise based on acts or omissions that occurred while You were an officer and director of the Company, and which were committed by You in Your capacities as such.

If the terms set forth in this Agreement are acceptable, please sign below before a notary and return the signed original to me on or before December 4, 2006.
