Allentown, PA, June 11, 2004 - Target Software today announced that it has entered into a licensing and services agreement to implement and operate the Target SFA sales effectiveness suite for OSI Pharmaceuticals, Inc.'s Oncology Business. OSI Pharmaceuticals focuses on the discovery, development and commercialization of high-quality, next generation oncology products that both extend life and improve the quality-of-life for cancer patients worldwide. The Target SFA suite will become OSI's central sales information management solution and the Target Software Support Center will provide training, hosting, help desk, data management and other SFA operational services for OSI on an ongoing basis.

OSI's national sales force is being deployed on Target Mobile, Target Software's ultra-portable mobile sales software.
