              INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

Item 3.  Incorporation of Documents by Reference.
------   ---------------------------------------

               The following documents filed by Clarus Corporation (formerly SQL
Financials International, Inc.) (the "Company") with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act"), are incorporated herein by reference:

               (a)  The Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K and Form 10-K/A for
          the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999, filed with the Commission on
          March 30, 2000, and April 28, 2000, respectively;

               (b)  The Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter
          ended March 31, 2000, filed with the Commission on May 15, 2000;

               (c)  The Company's Current Reports on Form 8-K, filed with the
          Commission on January 6, 2000, March 20, 2000, June 12, 2000 and June
          13, 2000, respectively;

               (d)  The description of the Company's Common Stock, $.0001 par
          value, contained in the Company's Registration Statement on Form 8-A
          filed pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, including any
          amendment or report filed for the purpose of updating such
          description; and

               (e)  All other reports filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d)
          of the Exchange Act since the date of the document referred to in (a),
          above.

               All documents subsequently filed by the Company pursuant to
Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior to the filing of
a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered hereby
have been sold or which deregisters all securities remaining unsold, shall be
deemed to be incorporated by reference herein and to be a part hereof from the
date of the filing of such documents.

               This Registration Statement on Form S-8 is being filed in
connection with the registration by the Company with the Commission of 1,511,351
additional shares issuable pursuant to the Stock Incentive Plan of Clarus
Corporation, as amended and restated effective June 13, 2000 (formerly, the 1998
Stock Incentive Plan of Clarus Corporation) (the "Plan").

               Pursuant to General Instruction E to Form S-8, the contents of
the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-59193), filed
with the Commission on July 16, 1998, and Registration Statement on Form S-8
(File No. 333-79565), filed with the Commission on May 28, 1999, relating to
shares issuable under the Plan are incorporated by reference in this
Registration Statement on Form S-8.

Item 4.  Description of Securities.
------   -------------------------

               Not applicable.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
------   --------------------------------------

               The legality of the securities offered hereby has been passed
upon by the firm of Womble Carlyle Sandridge & Rice, PLLC, counsel to the
Company. Members of the firm hold approximately 3,000 shares of Common Stock.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
------   -----------------------------------------

               The Restated Bylaws of the Company (the "Restated Bylaws") and
the Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Restated Certificate") of the
Company provide that the directors and officers of the Company shall be
indemnified by the Company to the fullest extent authorized by Delaware law, as
it now exists or may in the

                                      II-1
<PAGE>

future be amended, against all expenses and liabilities reasonably incurred in
connection with service for or on behalf of the Company. Insofar as
indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act"), may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the Restated Bylaws, in the
opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. The Company has obtained insurance which insures the directors
and officers of the Company against certain losses and which insures the Company
against certain of its obligations to indemnify such directors and officers. In
addition, the Restated Certificate of the Company provides that the directors of
the Company will not be personally liable for monetary damages to the Company
for breaches of their fiduciary duty as directors, unless they violated their
duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, acted in bad faith,
knowingly or intentionally violated the law, authorized illegal dividends or
redemptions or derived an improper personal benefit from their action as
directors. Such limitations of personal liability under the Delaware Business
Corporation law do not apply to liabilities arising out of certain violations of
the federal securities laws. While non-monetary relief such as injunctive
relief, specific performance and other equitable remedies may be available to
the Company, such relief may be difficult to obtain or, if obtained, may not
adequately compensate the Company for its damages.

               There is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any
director, officer, employee or agent of the Company where indemnification by the
Company will be required or permitted. The Company is not aware of any
threatened litigation or proceeding that might result in a claim for such
indemnification.

Item 7.  Exemption from Registration Claimed.

Item 9.  Undertakings.
------   ------------

(a)  The Company hereby undertakes:

     (1)  To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
          post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

               (i)   To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of
                     the Securities Act;

               (ii)  To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
                     after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or
                     the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which,
                     individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental
                     change in the information set forth in the Registration
                     Statement;

               (iii) 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;

     provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if
     --------  -------
     the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by
     those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished
     to the Commission by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of
     the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference 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.

(b)  The Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any
     liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Company's annual
     report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 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.

(c)  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
     may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
     Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has
     been advised that in the opinion of the Commission 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 Company of expenses incurred or
     paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company 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 Company 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.

              INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

Item 3.  Incorporation of Documents by Reference.
------   ---------------------------------------

               The following documents filed by Clarus Corporation (formerly SQL
Financials International, Inc.) (the "Company") with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act"), are incorporated herein by reference:

               (a)  The Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K and Form 10-K/A for
          the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999, filed with the Commission on
          March 30, 2000, and April 28, 2000, respectively;

               (b)  The Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter
          ended March 31, 2000, filed with the Commission on May 15, 2000;

               (c)  The Company's Current Reports on Form 8-K, filed with the
          Commission on January 6, 2000, March 20, 2000, June 12, 2000 and June
          13, 2000, respectively;

               (d)  The description of the Company's Common Stock, $.0001 par
          value, contained in the Company's Registration Statement on Form 8-A
          filed pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, including any
          amendment or report filed for the purpose of updating such
          description; and

               (e)  All other reports filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d)
          of the Exchange Act since the date of the document referred to in (a),
          above.

               All documents subsequently filed by the Company pursuant to
Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior to the filing of
a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered hereby
have been sold or which deregisters all securities remaining unsold, shall be
deemed to be incorporated by reference herein and to be a part hereof from the
date of the filing of such documents.

               This Registration Statement on Form S-8 is being filed in
connection with the registration by the Company with the Commission of 1,511,351
additional shares issuable pursuant to the Stock Incentive Plan of Clarus
Corporation, as amended and restated effective June 13, 2000 (formerly, the 1998
Stock Incentive Plan of Clarus Corporation) (the "Plan").

               Pursuant to General Instruction E to Form S-8, the contents of
the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-59193), filed
with the Commission on July 16, 1998, and Registration Statement on Form S-8
(File No. 333-79565), filed with the Commission on May 28, 1999, relating to
shares issuable under the Plan are incorporated by reference in this
Registration Statement on Form S-8.

Item 4.  Description of Securities.
------   -------------------------

               Not applicable.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
------   --------------------------------------

               The legality of the securities offered hereby has been passed
upon by the firm of Womble Carlyle Sandridge & Rice, PLLC, counsel to the
Company. Members of the firm hold approximately 3,000 shares of Common Stock.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
------   -----------------------------------------

               The Restated Bylaws of the Company (the "Restated Bylaws") and
the Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Restated Certificate") of the
Company provide that the directors and officers of the Company shall be
indemnified by the Company to the fullest extent authorized by Delaware law, as
it now exists or may in the

                                      II-1
future be amended, against all expenses and liabilities reasonably incurred in
connection with service for or on behalf of the Company. Insofar as
indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act"), may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the Restated Bylaws, in the
opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. The Company has obtained insurance which insures the directors
and officers of the Company against certain losses and which insures the Company
against certain of its obligations to indemnify such directors and officers. In
addition, the Restated Certificate of the Company provides that the directors of
the Company will not be personally liable for monetary damages to the Company
for breaches of their fiduciary duty as directors, unless they violated their
duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, acted in bad faith,
knowingly or intentionally violated the law, authorized illegal dividends or
redemptions or derived an improper personal benefit from their action as
directors. Such limitations of personal liability under the Delaware Business
Corporation law do not apply to liabilities arising out of certain violations of
the federal securities laws. While non-monetary relief such as injunctive
relief, specific performance and other equitable remedies may be available to
the Company, such relief may be difficult to obtain or, if obtained, may not
adequately compensate the Company for its damages.

               There is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any
director, officer, employee or agent of the Company where indemnification by the
Company will be required or permitted. The Company is not aware of any
threatened litigation or proceeding that might result in a claim for such
indemnification.

Item 7.  Exemption from Registration Claimed.

Item 9.  Undertakings.
------   ------------

(a)  The Company hereby undertakes:

     (1)  To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
          post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

               (i)   To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of
                     the Securities Act;

               (ii)  To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
                     after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or
                     the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which,
                     individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental
                     change in the information set forth in the Registration
                     Statement;

               (iii) 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;

     provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if
     --------  -------
     the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by
     those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished
     to the Commission by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of
     the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference 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.

(b)  The Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any
     liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Company's annual
     report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 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.

(c)  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
     may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
     Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has
     been advised that in the opinion of the Commission 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 Company of expenses incurred or
     paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company 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 Company 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.

                                      II-3
