VOTING AGREEMENT AND

IRREVOCABLE PROXY

TO VOTE STOCK OF

KANA SOFTWARE, INC.

December 2, 2009

WHEREAS, the undersigned Midwood Capital Partners, L.P. is selling 513,818 shares of common stock and Midwood Capital Partners QP, LP is selling 86,182 shares of common stock (such shares, collectively the “Shares”), in each case of KANA Software, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Company”) to AKKR Special Opportunities LLC (“Special Opportunities”) on the date hereof (Midwood Capital Partners, L.P. and Midwood Capital Partners QP, LP are collectively referred to herein as “Stockholder”);

WHEREAS, Stockholder and Special Opportunities intend that full beneficial ownership of the Shares, including the power to vote the Shares, transfer to Special Opportunities, irrespective of the actual settlement date of the sale of the Shares; and

WHEREAS, Stockholder and Special Opportunities intend that Special Opportunities or its designee be entitled to vote the Shares on all matters for which a record date is established, notwithstanding whether the record date applicable to such vote occurs prior to the date hereof and/or prior to the actual settlement date of the sale of the Shares.

NOW THEREFORE, Stockholder, intending to be legally bound, acknowledges and agrees as follows:

Stockholder represents and warrants to Special Opportunities that it was the holder of record and beneficial owner of the Shares set forth on the signature page hereto with the sole power and authority to vote and transfer such Shares as of the close of business on November 20, 2009 and as of the date hereof.

Stockholder hereby irrevocably (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) appoints Jason Klein, the President of Kay Technology Corp, Inc., a Delaware corporation and designee of Special Opportunities (“Purchaser”), or any other designee of Purchaser, as the sole and exclusive attorney and proxy of the undersigned, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to vote and exercise all voting and related rights (to the fullest extent that the undersigned is entitled to do so) with respect to the Shares in accordance with the terms of this Irrevocable Proxy. Upon the undersigned’s execution of this Irrevocable Proxy, any and all prior proxies given by the undersigned with respect to any Shares are hereby revoked and the undersigned agrees not to grant any subsequent proxies or enter into any agreement or understanding with any person or entity to vote or give instructions with respect to the Shares in any manner inconsistent with the terms of this Irrevocable Proxy.

This Irrevocable Proxy is perpetual and irrevocable (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law), is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable proxy, and is granted in consideration of Purchaser’s acquisition of the Shares from Stockholder.

The attorneys and proxies named above, and each of them, are hereby authorized and empowered by the undersigned, at all times following the date hereof (including, for the avoidance of doubt, at any vote from this date forward regardless of any applicable record date), to act as the undersigned’s attorney and proxy to vote the Shares, and to exercise all voting and other rights of the undersigned with respect to the Shares, at every annual, special or adjourned meeting of the stockholders of Company and in every written consent in lieu of such meeting with respect to all matters (regardless of whether the record date applicable to such vote or consent occurs prior to the date hereof and/or prior to the actual settlement date of the sale of the Shares).

If requested by Special Opportunities or if for any reason the above proxy shall be held invalid, Stockholder agrees to vote the Shares in the manner directed by Special Opportunities at every annual, special or adjourned meeting of the stockholders of Company and in every written consent in lieu of such meeting to the extent Stockholder is deemed to be the record or beneficial holder of the Shares as of the record date with respect thereto. Stockholder agrees to take all reasonable action to assist Special Opportunities in effectuating this agreement, including without limitation, notifying Special Opportunities of the receipt of proxy materials received by it with respect to the Shares, forwarding such proxy materials to Special Opportunities and/or instructing the holder of record (if other than the undersigned) to vote such shares as directed by Special Opportunities.

This Irrevocable Proxy constitutes the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Irrevocable Proxy, together with any rights, interests or obligations of Stockholder hereunder, may be assigned or delegated in whole or in part by Special Opportunities without the consent of or any action by Stockholder upon written notice by Special Opportunities to Stockholder. Without limiting the foregoing, any obligation of Stockholder hereunder shall be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of Stockholder. In the event that any provision of this Irrevocable Proxy, or the application thereof, becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Irrevocable Proxy shall continue in full force and effect and the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances shall be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto.

This Irrevocable Proxy shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without reference to such state’s principles of conflicts of law.

[signature page follows]

This Irrevocable Proxy is coupled with an interest as aforesaid and is irrevocable. This Irrevocable Proxy may not be amended or otherwise modified without the prior written consent of Purchaser.
