<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">On December&nbsp;12, 2008, Ebix, Inc. (&#147;Ebix&#148; or the &#147;Company&#148;) received notice from Habif, Arogeti &#038; Wynne,&nbsp;LLP (&#147;HA&#038;W&#148;)
of its decision not to stand for re-appointment as Ebix&#146;s&nbsp;independent registered public accountant for the fiscal year
ending December&nbsp;31,&nbsp;2008. As a result, the client-auditor relationship between Ebix and HA&#038;W has ended. Prior to
receiving HA&amp;W&#146;s notification, the members of the Audit Committee of Ebix&#146;s Board of
Directors had not approved a decision to reappoint HA&amp;W. The audit committee had been
considering the possibility of engaging other
independent registered public accounting firms, to explore reductions
in the audit cost structure. The Audit Committee in coordination with Ebix&#146;s management is in the process of
considering other independent registered public accounting firms&nbsp;and will engage a new independent registered public
accounting firm as soon as&nbsp;reasonably practicable.&nbsp;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Since HA&#038;W has been retained as Ebix&#146;s independent registered public accounting firm, its audit reports on the financial
statements of Ebix including those for fiscal year ended December&nbsp;31, 2007 and any subsequent interim period through
the date the relationship with HA&#038;W ended, have not contained an adverse opinion or&nbsp;disclaimer of opinion, nor were any
such reports qualified or modified as to&nbsp;uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.&nbsp;
<BR>
&nbsp;
<BR>
During the period of Ebix&#146;s engagement of HA&#038;W, there were no reportable events as defined in Item
304(a)(1)(v)(A)&nbsp;through (D)&nbsp;of Regulation&nbsp;S-K, no disagreements with HA&#038;W on any matter of&nbsp;accounting principles or
practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing&nbsp;scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of
HA&#038;W, would have&nbsp;caused HA&#038;W to make reference to the subject matter in connection with their&nbsp;opinion on Ebix&#146;s
consolidated financial statements for such years.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">By issuance of this filing Ebix has authorized HA&#038;W to fully respond to any inquires of the new independent registered

Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
On December 12, 2008, Ebix, Inc. ("Ebix" or the "Company") received notice from Habif, Arogeti & Wynne, LLP ("HA&W")
of its decision not to stand for re-appointment as Ebix's independent registered public accountant for the fiscal year
ending December 31, 2008. As a result, the client-auditor relationship between Ebix and HA&W has ended. Prior to
receiving HA&W's notification, the members of the Audit Committee of Ebix's Board of
Directors had not approved a decision to reappoint HA&W. The audit committee had been
considering the possibility of engaging other
independent registered public accounting firms, to explore reductions
in the audit cost structure. The Audit Committee in coordination with Ebix's management is in the process of
considering other independent registered public accounting firms and will engage a new independent registered public
accounting firm as soon as reasonably practicable.
Since HA&W has been retained as Ebix's independent registered public accounting firm, its audit reports on the financial
statements of Ebix including those for fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 and any subsequent interim period through
the date the relationship with HA&W ended, have not contained an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were any
such reports qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
During the period of Ebix's engagement of HA&W, there were no reportable events as defined in Item
304(a)(1)(v)(A) through (D) of Regulation S-K, no disagreements with HA&W on any matter of accounting principles or
practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of
HA&W, would have caused HA&W to make reference to the subject matter in connection with their opinion on Ebix's
consolidated financial statements for such years.
By issuance of this filing Ebix has authorized HA&W to fully respond to any inquires of the new independent registered
public accounting firm to be hired by the Company.
The Company has furnished HA&W with a copy of the above disclosure and requested that HA&W issue a letter addressed to
the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether HA&W agrees with the above statements. The letter provided by
HA&W in response is included as Exhibit 16.1 to this report.
