      This Amendment No. 2 is filed by Pequot Capital Management, Inc., a
Connecticut corporation (the "Reporting Person"), and amends and restates Items
4, 5 and 6 of the Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Person on August 11, 2004
("Schedule 13D"), as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D, filed by the
Reporting Person on October 21, 2005 ("Amendment No. 1," and together with the
Schedule 13D and this Amendment No. 2, the "Statement"). This Statement relates
to the Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), of Saba
Software, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"). Capitalized terms used
below and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the
Statement.

ITEM 4.      PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

Item 4 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

      The Reporting Person acquired the shares of Common Stock pursuant to the
terms of the Purchase Agreement. In addition, on October 14, 2005, the Reporting
Person acquired an aggregate of 95,340 shares of Common Stock at purchase prices
ranging from $3.09 per share to $3.14 per share in open market transactions. The
Reporting Person considers the shares of Common Stock that it beneficially owns
an investment made in the ordinary course of its business. The Reporting Person
intends to review on a continuing basis its investment in the Issuer, including
the Issuer's business, financial condition and operating results and general
market and industry conditions and, based upon such review, may acquire
additional shares of Common Stock or dispose of shares of Common Stock in the
open market, in privately negotiated transactions or in any other lawful manner.

PURCHASE AGREEMENT

      On August 10, 2004, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Issuer issued
and sold to the Funds an aggregate of 2,674,500 shares of Common Stock for a
purchase price of $3.2841 per share of Common Stock representing aggregate
consideration of $8,783,325.45. The funds for the purchase of such Common Stock
held by the Funds were obtained from the contributions of the Funds'
partners/shareholders. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Item 4 or
elsewhere in this Statement shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in
the Purchase Agreement.

      Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, at the Closing, the Issuer amended its
by-laws to increase the size of its board of directors from five to six members
and appointed Mr. Lawrence D. Lenihan, Jr. as a Class III member of the Board of
Directors. From and after the Closing, for so long as the Reporting Person
beneficially holds at least seventy-five percent of the Common Stock purchased
by the Funds pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Issuer has agreed to use
its best efforts to cause: (i) Mr. Lenihan to remain a Class III director; (ii)
Mr. Lenihan to be nominated and elected to the board of directors of the Issuer
in any election of directors; and (iii) any vacancy, should Mr. Lenihan cease
for any reason to be a member of the board of directors of the Issuer, to be
filled by a replacement designated by the Reporting Person and reasonably
acceptable to the Issuer.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

      In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Purchase
Agreement, the Issuer and the Funds entered into a Registration Rights Agreement
(the "Registration Rights Agreement"), dated as of August 9, 2004. Pursuant to
the Registration Rights Agreement, the Issuer filed a Registration Statement on
Form S-3 registering the Common Stock for resale on a continuous basis under
Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), which
was declared effective on January 11, 2005. The Issuer is required to keep such
registration statement effective until all the Common Stock registered
thereunder is sold or the holders are entitled to sell such Common Stock without
volume restrictions under Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act.

MERGER AGREEMENT

     On October 5, 2005, the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization (the "Merger Agreement") by and among the Issuer, Spruce
Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of
the Issuer ("Merger Sub 1"), Spruce Acquisition, LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Issuer ("Merger Sub 2"),
and Centra Software, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Centra"). Pursuant to the
Merger Agreement, (i) Merger Sub 1 merged with and into Centra, with


                                       3





Centra as the surviving corporation (the "First Step Merger"), and (ii)
immediately after the effective time of the First Step Merger, Centra merged
with and into Merger Sub 2, with Merger Sub 2 as the surviving company (the
"Second Step Merger," and together with the First Step Merger, the "Mergers").
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of Centra's
common stock converted into the right to receive 0.354 shares of Parent's common
stock and $0.663 in cash. The Mergers were consummated on January 31, 2006,
resulting in, to the knowledge of the Reporting Person (based on information
provided by the Issuer), the issuance of 10,387,938 shares of Common Stock to
the holders of the outstanding shares of common stock of Centra.

      Copies of the Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement
(which contains the form of Penalty Warrant as an exhibit) were previously filed
as Exhibits 1 and 2, respectively, to the Schedule 13D and are incorporated
herein by reference. A copy of the Merger Agreement is incorporated herein by
reference to Exhibit 1 to Amendment No. 1. The descriptions herein of such
agreements are qualified in their entirety by reference to such agreements.

ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

Item 5 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

     (a) The Reporting Person beneficially owns 2,779,840 shares of Common
Stock, representing approximately 9.8% of shares of Common Stock outstanding as
of January 31, 2006, assuming that 28,341,191 shares of Common Stock were
outstanding after giving effect to the Mergers and the exercise of the
Director's Options. The Executive Officer, Director and Controlling Person owns
188,044 shares of Common Stock in a personal account. The Reporting Person
disclaims beneficial ownership of such securities and such securities are not
included in the amounts reported by the Reporting Person.

      (b) The Reporting Person has the sole power to vote, direct the vote,
dispose and direct the disposition of the 2,779,840 shares of Common Stock.

      (c) Except for the information set forth, or incorporated by reference, in
Items 3 and 4, which is incorporated herein by reference, the Reporting Persons
have not effected any transaction relating to the Common Stock during the
past 60 days.

      (d) Not applicable.

      (e) Not applicable.

ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, AGREEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO
        SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

      Reference is made to the Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights
Agreement described in Items 3 and 4, which were previously filed as Exhibits 1
and 2 to the Schedule 13D, and are incorporated by reference herein.

      In connection with the Reporting Person's participation (through its
employees) on the Issuer's Board of Directors, the Issuer granted to Lawrence D.
Lenihan, Jr. options to purchase: (i) 5,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Initial
Director's Options") on December 14, 2004, and (ii) 5,000 shares of Common Stock
(the "Additional Director's Options," and together with the Initial Director's
Options, the "Director's Options") on December 15, 2005, in each case pursuant
to the Issuer's 2000 Stock Incentive Plan. The Initial Director's Options are
immediately exercisable at the exercise price of $4.20 per share and expire on
December 14, 2010. The Additional Director's Options are immediately exercisable
at the exercise price of $4.16 per share and expire on December 15, 2011. The
description of the Director's Options is qualified in its entirety by reference
to the Issuer's 2000 Stock Incentive Plan and is incorporated herein by
reference.
