PART II
INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Item 3. Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference.
------
We incorporate by reference the following documents:
(1) Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000
and all other reports filed by us pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") since March 31, 2001; and
(2) The description of our Common Stock contained in the Form 8-A filed by
us on June 22, 2000.
If we file any documents with the SEC pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c),
14, and 15(d) of the Exchange Act after the date hereof and prior to the filing
of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered have
been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, then those
documents shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this registration
statement and to be a part thereof from the date of filing such documents. We
refer to those documents which are subsequently filed, and the documents listed
above, as "Incorporated Documents."
To the extent information contained in this registration statement or any
Incorporated Document differs from information contained in an earlier-filed
Incorporated Document, rely on the different information in this registration
statement or the later-filed Incorporated Document.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel
------
The validity of the shares of common stock offered hereby will be passed on
for us by Seyfarth Shaw, Chicago, Illinois. David S. Stone, a partner in
Seyfarth Shaw, is our Secretary and the beneficial owner of 628,599 shares of
our common stock. Certain attorneys and a former attorney of Seyfarth Shaw,
beneficially own in the aggregate 25,500 shares of our common stock.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
------
Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation in effect as of the
date hereof (the "Certificate") provides that, except to the extent prohibited
by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended (the "DGCL"), our directors
shall not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages
for any breach of fiduciary duty as directors. Under the DGCL, our directors
have a fiduciary duty to us which is not eliminated by this provision of the
Certificate and, in appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies such as
injunctive or other forms of non-monetary relief will remain available. In
addition, each director will continue to be subject to liability under the DGCL
for breach of the director's duty of loyalty to us, for acts or omissions which
are found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be not in good faith or
involving intentional misconduct, for knowing violations of law, for actions
leading to improper personal benefit to the director, and for payment of
dividends or approval of stock repurchases or redemptions that are prohibited by
the DGCL. This provision also does not affect the directors' responsibilities
under any other laws, such as the Federal securities laws. We have obtained, and
may continue to obtain, liability insurance for our officers and directors.
Section 145 of the DGCL empowers a corporation to indemnify its directors
and officers and to purchase insurance with respect to liability arising out of
their capacity or status as directors and officers, provided that this provision
shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director: (i) for any breach of
the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for
acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a
knowing violation of law, (iii) arising under Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv)
for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
benefit. The DGCL provides further that the indemnification permitted thereunder
shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the directors and
officers may be entitled under the corporation's bylaws, any agreement, a vote
of stockholders or otherwise. The Certificate eliminates the personal liability
of directors to the fullest extent permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL
and provides that we may fully indemnify any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action,
suit or proceeding (whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative) by
reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of this
corporation, or is or was serving at our request as a director or officer of
another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or
other enterprise, against expenses (including attorney's fees), judgments, fines
and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person
in connection with such action, suit or proceeding.
Item 8. Exhibits
------
Reference is made to the Exhibit Index.
Item 9. Undertakings
------
We hereby undertake:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement to include any material
information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in
the registration statement or any material change to such information in the
registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any
of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.
(4) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or
15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee
benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that
is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
(5) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons
of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification
is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant
certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the
requirements for filing on Form S-8, and has duly caused this Registration
Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly

Re: Registration Statement on Form S-8; 500,000 shares of Common Stock to
be Issued Pursuant to the Directors' Stock Option and Stock Award Plan
Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel for Click Commerce, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the "Company"), in connection with the preparation of a Registration Statement
on Form S-8 to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"Registration Statement") with respect to the registration under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, of 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock, par
value $.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), which may be issued pursuant to the
Click Commerce, Inc. Directors' Stock Option and Stock Award Plan (the "Plan").
We have examined the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, as
amended, the bylaws of the Company, as amended, certain resolutions of the
Company's Board of Directors, a copy of the Plan and such other corporate
records, certificates, documents and matters of law as we have deemed necessary
to render this opinion. In such examination we have assumed the genuineness of
all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of all
documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to original documents
of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies.
Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that (i) the issuance of the
Common Stock has been duly authorized by the Company, and (ii) that when issued
in accordance with the terms of the Plan, the shares of Common Stock will be
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
We are members of the bar of the State of Illinois and we express no
opinions as to laws other than applicable federal law and the laws of the State
of Illinois and the corporate law of the State of Delaware.
We hereby consent to the references to our firm in the Registration
Statement and to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement.
Very truly yours,
SEYFARTH SHAW

the payment of non-employee directors' retainers and meeting fees in common
stock of the Company ("Common Stock"), from and after the Company's initial
public offering of Common Stock. The Plan is intended to promote the long-term

privileges on any national or regional securities exchange, the average between
the high and low sales prices reported, on the composite tape of that exchange
(provided that, if the shares are listed or admitted on more than one exchange,
then on the exchange designated by the Board from time to time) on the day Fair
Market Value is to be determined;
(b) If the Common Stock is not listed or admitted to unlisted trading
privileges as provided in paragraph (a), and if sales prices for shares of
Common Stock are reported by the Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq"), then the
average of the high and low sales price for Common Stock reported as of the
close of business on the day Fair Market Value is to be determined, or if Common
Stock is not traded on that day, the next preceding day on which such stock was

(c) Gender. Unless clearly appropriate, all nouns of whatever gender
refer to persons of either gender.
(d) Singular and Plural. Unless clearly inappropriate, singular terms

(e) Severability. If any provision of this Plan is determined to be

full force and effect and shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or
invalid provision did not exist, unless the continuance of the Plan in such
circumstances is not consistent with its purposes.
3. STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN.
Except as otherwise provided in Section 10, the aggregate number of shares
of Common Stock that may be issued, or subject to Options granted under this
Plan, may not exceed 500,000 shares of Common Stock. Reserved shares may be
either authorized but unissued shares or shares reacquired by the Company and

terminate or expire, as to any number of shares, new Options or shares may
thereafter be awarded with respect to such shares.
4. ADMINISTRATION.
The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. In addition to any other
powers set forth in this Plan, the Committee has the exclusive authority:
(a) to construe and interpret the Plan, and to remedy any ambiguities or
inconsistencies therein;
(b) to establish, amend and rescind appropriate rules and regulations
relating to the Plan;
(c) generally, to administer the Plan, and to take all such steps and make
all such determinations in connection with the Plan and the Awards granted
thereunder as it may deem necessary or advisable;
(d) to determine, on an individual basis, or generally from time to time,
the form in which payment on an Option exercise under Section 7, or tax
withholding under Section 13, will be made; and
(e) to take any action necessary, including amendment of the Plan or any
Award, as required in order for a transaction to qualify for pooling of interest
accounting treatment.
3
Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent necessary to satisfy Rule 16b-
3 under the Exchange Act, action otherwise within the authority of the Committee
shall be taken by the full Board.
5. DIRECTOR STOCK OPTIONS.
(a) Each Director shall be granted (i) if he is a Director on the
Effective Date, an Option to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock at an Option
Price equal to the per share initial offering price; (ii) if he is a Director on
the date of an annual meeting of the Company's stockholders, an Option to
purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock at an Option Price equal to the Fair
Market Value on such date; and (iii) on the date he first becomes a Director (if
other than at an annual meeting of the Company's stockholders) an Option to
purchase a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 10,000 multiplied by a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days such individual will
serve until the date that will be the next annual meeting of the Company's
stockholders (as determined by the Committee) and the denominator of which is
365 at an Option Price equal to the Fair Market Value on such date.
(b) An Option shall be granted hereunder only if as of each Option Date
the Director (i) is not otherwise an employee of the Company or any Subsidiary,
and (ii) has served on the Board continuously since the commencement of his or
her term.
(c) In the event that the number of shares of Common Stock available for
grant under the Plan is insufficient to make all automatic grants required to be
made on a given date, then the Options granted to Directors entitled to a grant
on such date shall share ratably in the number of shares available for grant
under the Plan.
6. OPTION PERIOD.
An Option may not be exercised until six months after the Option Date.
Each Option will expire as of the earliest of:
(a) the date the Participant's membership on the Board is terminated for
cause, as determined by the Committee;
(b) the date one year after the Participant's death; or
(c) ten years from the Option Date.
7. MANNER OF EXERCISE OF OPTIONS.
To exercise an Option in whole or in part, a Participant (or, after his
death, his executor or administrator) must give written notice to the Committee,
stating the number of shares with respect to which he intends to exercise the
Option. The Company will
4
issue the shares with respect to which the Option is exercised upon payment in
full of the Option Price. The Option Price may be paid (i) in cash, (ii) in
shares of Common Stock having an aggregate Fair Market Value, as determined on
the date of delivery, equal to the Option Price, or (iii) by delivery of
irrevocable instructions to a broker designated by the Company to promptly
deliver to the Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds necessary to pay for
all Common Stock acquired through such exercise and any tax withholding
obligations resulting from such exercise.
8. DIRECTOR STOCK AWARDS
In lieu of any retainer or meeting fees payable in cash to a Director from
and after the Effective Date of the Plan, each Director shall receive, on the
payment date thereof, a number of shares of Common Stock with a Fair Market
Value equal to the retainer or meeting fees. The value of annual stock awards to
each Director under the Plan shall initially be $25,000, subject to review and
revision by the Committee at any time in its sole discretion. In addition, each
Director who serves as the Chairman of the Audit Committee of the Board of
Directors shall receive a number of shares of Common Stock with a Fair Market
Value equal to $10,000 on the date of the annual meeting of the stockholders of
the Company. Each Director who serves as the Chairman of the Human Resource and
Compensation Committee or the Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of
Directors shall receive a number of shares of Common Stock with a Fair Market
Value equal to $5,000 on the date of the annual meeting of stockholders. The
Board of Directors may determine, in its discretion, other additional amounts of
grants of Common Stock for other additional committees of the Board of Directors
that may be formed from time to time. [Amended by resolution of the Board of
Directors dated March 31, 2000.]
9. DEFERRAL OF STOCK AWARD
(a) A Director may elect to defer the ownership of the shares of Common
Stock otherwise issuable pursuant to Section 8. Any such election shall be in
writing in the form prescribed by the Committee.
(b) An election to defer pursuant to (a) above with respect to shares of
Common Stock issuable in a calendar year must be made prior to December 31st of
the preceding year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the calendar year in
which the Effective Date occurs, any election must be filed no later than 30
days after the Effective Date and shall be effective for shares issuable after
the election is made.
(c) At the time of deferral, a Director may select the date for the
issuance of the deferred shares. If a Director does not select a date for the
issuance of deferred shares, the deferred shares will be issued upon termination
of his service as a Director.
10. ADJUSTMENTS TO REFLECT CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE.
Subject to the following provisions of this Section 10, in the event of any
change in the outstanding shares of Common Stock by reason of any share
dividend, split, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, combination, exchange
of shares or other similar
5
corporate change, the aggregate number and kind of shares of Common Stock
reserved for issuance under the Plan or subject to Options outstanding or to be
granted under the Plan shall be proportionately adjusted so that the value of
each Option shall not be changed, and the terms of any outstanding Option may be
adjusted by the Committee in such manner as it deems equitable; provided,
however, that in no event shall the Option price for a share be adjusted below
the par value of such share, nor shall any fraction of a share be issued upon
the exercise of an Option.
11. NON-TRANSFERABILITY OF OPTIONS.
The Options granted under the Plan are not transferable, voluntarily or
involuntarily, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.
During a Participant's lifetime, his Options may be exercised only by him;
provided, however, that Options granted hereunder to Directors subject to third
party policies against receiving individual compensation for serving as a
director of companies in which such third party has an investment may be
assigned to or issued directly to such third party, upon the written request of
the Director. Options so assigned or issued may be exercised only by the
recipient or a wholly-owned subsidiary thereof. [Amended by resolution of the
Board of Directors on April 2, 2001.].
12. RIGHTS AS STOCKHOLDER.
A Participant has no rights whatsoever as a stockholder with respect to any
shares covered by an Option until the date of the issuance of a stock
certificate for the shares. No Common Stock may be delivered upon the exercise
of any Option until full payment has been made and all income tax withholding
requirements thereon, if any, have been satisfied.
13. WITHHOLDING TAX.
The Company shall have the right to withhold in cash or shares of Common
Stock with respect to any payments made to Directors under the Plan any taxes
required by law to be withheld because of such payments. Any withholding of
shares shall be made in a manner consistent with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange
Act
14. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN.
The Committee may from time to time amend or revise the terms of this Plan
in whole or in part and may without limitation, adopt any amendment deemed
necessary; provided, however, that unless, necessary to comply with any pooling
of interest requirements, no change in any award previously granted to a
Director may be made that would impair the rights of the Director without the
Director's consent. All amendments shall be in writing and consented to by a
majority of the members of the Committee.
6
15. CONDITIONS UPON ISSUANCE OF SHARES.
The exercise of any Option and the issuance and delivery of such shares of
Common Stock pursuant thereto shall comply with all relevant provisions of law,
including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, the Exchange Act, the
rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the requirements of any stock
exchange upon which the shares of Common Stock may then be listed. As a
condition to the exercise of an Option, the Company may require the person
exercising such Option to (i) represent and warrant at the time of any such
exercise that the Common Stock is being purchased only for investment and
without any present intention to sell or distribute such shares if, in the
opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required by any of
the aforementioned relevant provisions of law; and (ii) enter into a lock-up or
similar agreement with respect to such shares, prohibiting, for up to 360 days
in the case of the initial public offering or 90 days in the case of any other
offering, the disposition of such shares.
16. TERMINATION OF THE PLAN.
The Committee may terminate the Plan at any time with respect to any shares
that have not been issued and are not then subject to Options. Termination of
the Plan will not affect the rights and obligations of any Participant with
respect to Options or shares of Common Stock, awarded before termination.
