Attention: Board of Directors

Dear Sirs,

Kinderhook Partners, LP is a significant shareholder of Salary.com with current holdings equal to approximately 9.6% of the total shares outstanding.

We read William Martin’s letter dated March 18, 2009, which was contained in the Schedule 13D filed on March 19, 2009 by Raging Capital Management, LLC. We agree with the views that Mr. Martin expresses in his letter that the board should include new directors who will represent the interests of those who have material shareholdings in the company. The board has the opportunity to replace two of the non-employee directors with two new directors that have material ownership in the company at the company’s next Annual Meeting of Stockholders. We strongly urge the board to do so.

We would welcome the opportunity to discuss this, and other ways to increase shareholder value, with a representative of the board.
