in order to induce PurchasePro to enter into the Agreement, hereby agrees as
follows:

     The Stockholder, on behalf of himself and his Related Parties (as defined

each of their respective individual, joint or mutual, past and present
representatives, Affiliates, officers, directors, agents, attorneys,

claims, demands, proceedings, causes of action, orders, obligations, contracts,
agreements, debts and liabilities whatsoever, whether known or unknown,
suspected or unsuspected, both at law and in equity, which the Stockholder or
any of his Related Parties now have or have ever had against Releasees;
provided, however, nothing contained in the Release shall limit any rights or
claims the Stockholder may have against PurchasePro pursuant to the terms of the
Agreement or against Andrew S. Anderson.

     "Related Parties" shall mean, with respect to the Stockholder, (i) any

profit corporation), general or limited partnership, limited liability company,
joint venture, estate, trust, association, organization, labor union or other
entity.  For purposes of this definition, "Material Interest" shall mean direct

Act) of voting securities or other voting interests representing at least ten
percent (10%) of the outstanding voting power of a Person or equity securities
or other equity interests representing at least ten percent (10%) of the
outstanding equity securities or equity interests in a Person.

     The Stockholder hereby irrevocably covenants to refrain from, directly or
indirectly, asserting any claim or demand, or commencing, instituting or causing
to be commenced, any proceeding of any kind against any Releasee, based upon any
matter released hereby.

     Without in any way limiting any of the rights and remedies otherwise
available to any Releasee, the Stockholder shall indemnify and hold harmless
each Releasee from and against all loss, liability, claim, damage (including
incidental and consequential damages) or expense (including costs of
investigation and defense and reasonable attorney's fees) whether or not
involving third party claims, arising directly or indirectly from or in
connection with (i) the assertion by or on behalf 

 
of the Stockholder or any of his Related Parties of any claim or other matter
released pursuant to this Release and (ii) the assertion by any third party of
any claim or demand against any Releasee which claim or demand arises directly
or indirectly from, or in connection with, any assertion by or on behalf of the
Stockholder or any of his Related Parties against such third party of any claims
or other matters released pursuant to this Release.

     If any provision of this Release is held invalid or unenforceable by any
court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Release will
remain in full force and effect.  Any provision of this Release held invalid or
unenforceable only in part or degree will remain in full force and effect to the
extent not held invalid or unenforceable.

     This Release may not be changed except in a writing signed by the person(s)
against whose interest such change shall operate.  This Release shall be
governed by and construed under the laws of the State of California without
regard to principles of conflicts of law.

     All words used in this Release will be construed to be of such gender or
