PROXY STATEMENT

FOR

ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
TO BE HELD ON SEPTEMBER 26, 2008

GENERAL INFORMATION

We are providing these proxy materials to you in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors of Ebix, Inc. for the 2008 Annual Meeting (the “Annual Meeting”) of our stockholders to be held on September 26, 2008, and any adjournment or postponement of the Annual Meeting. In this proxy statement, we refer to Ebix, Inc., as “Ebix,” the “Company,” “we,” or “us.”

We are holding our Annual Meeting at the Company’s Atlanta, Georgia office located at Five Concourse Parkway, Suite 3200 on Friday, September 26, 2008, at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time. We intend to mail this proxy statement and accompanying proxy card to our stockholders starting on or about September 5, 2008. Our annual report for the year ended December 31, 2007, is being sent to each stockholder of record along with this proxy statement.

ABOUT THE MEETING

At our Annual Meeting, our stockholders will act upon the matters outlined in the accompanying notice of meeting, including the election of directors. In addition, our management will report on our performance during the 2007 year and respond to questions from stockholders.

VOTING INFORMATION

All shares represented by properly executed proxies received by the Board of Directors pursuant to this solicitation will be voted in accordance with the holder’s directions specified on the proxy. If no directions have been specified by marking the appropriate places on the accompanying proxy card, the shares will be voted in accordance with the Board’s recommendations which are:

	•		FOR the election of Robin Raina, Hans U. Benz, Neil D. Eckert, Pavan Bhalla, Rolf Herter and Hans Ueli Keller to our Board of Directors for a term of one year.
	•		For the amendment of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares from 10,000,000 to 20,000,000.

A stockholder signing and returning the accompanying proxy has power to revoke it at any time prior to its exercise by delivering to the Company a later dated proxy or by giving notice to the Company in writing or at the meeting, but without affecting any vote previously taken.

Record Date

You may vote all shares that you owned as of August 29, 2008, which is the record date for the Annual Meeting. As of August 29, 2008, we had 3,176,385 shares of common stock outstanding. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote on each matter properly brought before the meeting.

Ownership Of Shares

If your shares are registered directly in your name, you are the holder of record of these shares, and we are sending these proxy materials directly to you. As the holder of record, you have the right to give your proxy directly to us or vote in person at the Annual Meeting. If you hold your shares in a brokerage account or through a bank or other holder of record, you hold the shares in “street name,” and your broker, bank or other holder of record is sending these proxy materials to you. As a holder in street name, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other holder of record how to vote by filling out a voting instruction form that accompanies your proxy materials. Regardless of how you hold your shares, we invite you to attend the Annual Meeting.

How To Vote

Your Vote Is Important. We encourage you to vote promptly. You may vote in the following way:

By Mail: If you are a holder of record, you can vote by marking, dating, and signing your proxy card and returning it by mail in the enclosed postage-paid envelope. If you hold your shares in street name, please complete and mail the voting instruction card.

At The Annual Meeting: If you vote your shares now it will not limit your right to change your vote at the Annual Meeting if you attend in person. If you hold your shares in street name, you must obtain a proxy, executed in your favor, from the holder of record if you wish to vote your shares at the Annual Meeting.

All shares that have been properly voted and not revoked will be voted at the meeting. If you sign and return your proxy card without any voting instructions, your shares will be voted as the Board of Directors recommends.

Revocation Of Proxies: You can revoke your proxy at any time before your shares are voted if you: (1) send a written notice to our Secretary indicating that you want to revoke your proxy; or (2) deliver to our Secretary a duly executed proxy (or voting instructions if you hold your shares in street name) bearing a later date, which revokes all previous proxies; or (3) attend the meeting in person, give written notice of revocation to the secretary of the meeting prior to the voting of your proxy and vote your shares in person, although your attendance at the meeting will not by itself revoke your proxy.

Quorum And Required Vote

Quorum: We will have a quorum and will be able to conduct the business of the Annual Meeting if the holders of a majority of the votes that shareholders are entitled to cast are present at the meeting, either in person or by proxy.

Vote Required for Proposals:

Directors are elected by a plurality of the shares of common stock that are present in person or represented by proxy.

The amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to increase the Company’s number of authorized shares from 10,000,000 to 20,000,000 requires a majority of the shares of common stock that are present in person or represented by proxy.

Routine And Non-Routine Proposals: NASDAQ rules determine whether proposals presented at the shareholder meetings are routine or not routine. If a proposal is routine, a broker or other entity holding shares for an owner in street name may vote for the proposal without voting instructions from the owner.

If a proposal is not routine, the broker or other entity may vote on the proposal only if the owner has provided voting instructions. A broker non-vote occurs when the broker or other entity is unable to vote on a proposal because the proposal is not routine and the owner does not provide any instructions.

Under NASDAQ rules, the election of directors is a routine item. Under NASDAQ rules, the amendment of a Company’s certificate of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares is not a routine item.

How We Count Votes: In determining whether we have a quorum, we count abstentions and broker non-votes as present and entitled to vote.

In counting votes on the proposals:

	•		We do not count abstentions or broker non-votes, if any, as votes cast for the election of directors, but we do count votes withheld for one or more nominees as votes cast.
	•		Because directors are elected by a plurality, this means that the six nominees receiving the highest number of “FOR” votes will be elected. Neither abstentions nor broker non-votes will have any effect in determining the outcome of the election of directors.
	•		In tabulating whether the proposal to amend the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation has received a majority of votes of the Company’s outstanding shares, it should be noted that abstentions are counted in tabulations of the votes cast and thus have the same effect as a vote against a proposal, whereas broker non-votes are not counted for purposes of determining whether a proposal has been approved.

INFORMATION CONCERNING THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND THE CORPORATE GOVERNANCE OF THE COMPANY

Our business is managed by the Company’s employees under the direction and oversight of the Board of Directors. Except for Mr. Raina, none of our current Board members is an employee of the Company. We keep Board members informed of our business through discussions with management, materials we provide to them, visits to our offices, and facilities, and their participation in Board and Board committee meetings. The Board has three standing committees: the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Board limits membership of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to independent, non-management directors.

The Audit Committee exercises oversight responsibility regarding the quality and integrity of our auditing and financial reporting practices. In discharging this responsibility, the Audit Committee, among other things, selects the independent registered public accounting firm, pre-approves the audit and any non-audit services to be provided by the auditors and reviews the results and scope of the annual audit performed by the auditors. The Audit Committee currently consists of Messrs. Bhalla (Chairman), Keller and Benz. After reviewing the qualifications of the current members of the committee, and any relationships they may have with the Company that might affect their independence from the Company, our Board of Directors has determined that (1) all current members of the Audit Committee are “independent” as that concept is defined in Section 10A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, (2) all current members of the Audit Committee are “independent” as that concept is defined in the NASDAQ listing standards, (3) all current members of the Audit Committee are financially literate, and (4) Mr. Bhalla qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined under SEC rules promulgated under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Audit Committee met five times during 2007. The Audit Committee exercises its authority pursuant to a written charter that was adopted in October 2004 and is attached to this proxy statement as Exhibit A.

The Compensation Committee is responsible for approving compensation of officers and directors and administration of our various employee benefit plans. The Compensation Committee operates pursuant to a written charter that is posted on our website at www.ebix.com. The Compensation Committee currently consists of Messrs. Benz and Keller (Chairman), each of whom is “independent” as that concept is defined in the NASDAQ listing standards. The Compensation Committee met four times during 2007. The Compensation Committee exercises its authority pursuant to a written charter that was adopted in October 2004 and attached to this proxy statement as Exhibit B.

The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee has responsibility for recommending to the Board of Directors the persons to be nominated for election as directors by stockholders and recommending the persons to be elected by the Board of Directors to fill any vacancies. It also makes recommendations to the Board of Directors concerning the qualifications of members of the Board of Director’s committees, committee member appointment and removal and appointment of committee chairs. In addition, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee consider matters of corporate governance generally and reviews and recommends to the Board of Directors, periodically, our Corporate Governance Guidelines. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee currently consist of Messrs. Eckert (Chairman) and Herter, each of whom is “independent” as that concept is defined in the NASDAQ listing standards. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee met once in 2007. See “Nominating Procedures.” The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee exercises its authority pursuant to a written charter which was adopted in October 2004. Its charter, along with the Audit and Compensation Committee charters and our Corporate Governance Guidelines posted on our website at www.ebix.com.

The Board of Directors held five meetings during 2007. All but one of these meetings was conducted via teleconference. All directors attended at least 75% or more of the meetings.

Corporate Governance Practices and Policies

Our Board of Directors has been carefully following the corporate governance developments that have been taking place as a result of the adoption of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the rules adopted thereunder by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), new NASDAQ listing standards and other corporate governance recommendations. In October 2004, our Board designated a new committee, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, and also adopted new charters for the Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee, as well as our Corporate Governance Guidelines.

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines address, among other things, the Board’s composition, qualifications and responsibilities, director education and stockholder communication with directors. These Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that directors are expected to attend our annual meeting of stockholders.

Our Board of Directors also has adopted a Code of Ethics for Senior Financial Officers, which is applicable to our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Corporate Controller and any other persons designated as senior financial officers. Our Board of Directors also has adopted a Code of Conduct, articulating standards of business and professional ethics, which is applicable to all of our directors, officers and employees. The full texts of the Code of Ethics for Senior Financial Officers and Code of Conduct are available on our website.

Nominating Procedures

The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee will consider candidates for the Board of Directors from any reasonable source, including stockholder recommendations. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee will not evaluate candidates differently based on who has made the proposal. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee has the authority under its charter to hire and pay a fee to consultants or search firms to assist in the process of identifying and evaluating candidates. No such consultants or search firms have been used to date and, accordingly, no fees have been paid to consultants or search firms in the past fiscal year. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee will consider many factors when considering candidates for election to the Board of Directors, including that the proper skills and experiences are represented on the Board of Directors and its committees and that the composition of the Board of Directors and each such committee satisfies applicable legal requirements and the NASDAQ listing standards. Depending upon the current needs of the Board of Directors, certain factors may be weighed more or less heavily by the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee.

Stockholders who wish to suggest qualified candidates should write to Ebix, Inc., Five Concourse Parkway, Suite 3200, Atlanta, Georgia 30328 specifying the name of the candidates and stating in detail the qualifications of such persons for consideration by the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee. A written statement from the candidate consenting to be named as a candidate and, if nominated and elected, to serve as a director should accompany any such recommendation.

Stockholder Communications

The Board of Directors has provided a means by which stockholders may send communications to the Board or to individual members of the Board. Such communications, whether by letter, e-mail or telephone, should be directed to the Corporate Compliance Officer of the Company who will forward them to the intended recipients. However, unsolicited advertisements or invitations to conferences or promotional material, in the discretion of the Corporate Compliance Officer or his designee, may not be forwarded to the directors.

If a stockholder wishes to communicate to the Chairman of the Audit Committee about a concern relating to the Company’s financial statements, accounting practices or internal controls, the concern should be submitted in writing to the Chairman of the Audit Committee in care of the Company’s Corporate Compliance Officer at the Company’s headquarters address. If the concern relates to the Company’s governance practices, business ethics or corporate conduct, the concern likewise should be submitted in writing to the Chairman of the Audit Committee in care of the Company’s Corporate Compliance Officer at the Company’s headquarters address. If the shareholder is unsure as to which category his or her concern relates, he or she may communicate it to any one of the independent directors in care of the Company’s Secretary. The Company’s “whistleblower” policy prohibits the Company or any of its employees from retaliating or taking any adverse action against anyone for raising a concern. If a shareholder or employee nonetheless prefers to raise his or her concern in a confidential or anonymous manner, the concern may be directed to the Corporate Compliance Officer at the Company’s headquarters or by telephone at (678) 281-2020.

Independence

We require that a majority of the Board of Directors consist of independent, non-management directors, who also meet the criteria for independence required by the NASDAQ. Under such rules, a director is independent if he or she does not have a material relationship with the Company. Our Board annually evaluates each member’s independence status.

The Board of Directors has determined that as of August 29, 2008, five (5) of the Company’s six (6) incumbent directors are independent, including under NASDAQ guidelines: Messrs. Bhalla, Keller, Benz, Eckert and Herter. Mr. Raina as management director, participate in the Board’s activities and provide valuable insights and advice.

Non-management directors have access to individual members of management or to other employees of the Company on a confidential basis. Directors also have access to Company records and files and directors may contact other directors without informing Company management of the purpose or even the fact of such contact.

PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Our bylaws provide for a Board of Directors consisting of not less than four, nor more than eight, directors. The number of directors has been set as six (6), each of which will be elected at the Annual Meeting. The elected directors will hold offices until their successors are elected (which should occur at the next Annual Meeting) and qualified, unless they die, resign or are removed from office prior to that time. In the absence of specific instructions, executed proxies which do not indicate for whom votes should be cast will be voted “FOR” the election of the nominees named below as directors.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

Discussion of Director Compensation

Under the Non-Employee Directors Stock Option Plan (the “1998 Director Option Plan”), each non-employee director, upon initial election or appointment to serve on the Board of Directors, receives a grant of an option to purchase 1,500 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price per share of 100% of the fair market value of a share on the date of the grant. Of the 1,500 shares of Common Stock subject to such an option, the option becomes exercisable with respect to (a) 500 shares on the day prior to the first annual anniversary of the date of the grant and (b) 125 shares on the last day of each of the eight calendar quarters commencing on the last day of the calendar quarter ending on or after the first annual anniversary of the date of the grant. Each option has a term of ten years beginning on the date of the grant. In addition, the 1998 Director Option Plan provides for each non-employee director, immediately following each Annual Meeting of our stockholders, to be granted an option to purchase 450 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price per share of 100% of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date of the grant. Of the 450 shares of Common Stock subject to each such option, the option becomes exercisable with respect to 112.5 shares on the last day of each of the four calendar quarters beginning with the calendar quarter ending on or after the date of the grant. Each option has a term of ten years beginning on the date of grant.

On December 16, 2005, the Company held the annual meeting of stockholders. Immediately following that annual meeting of stockholders, each non-employee director received options to purchase 1,500 shares of Common Stock, including the options automatically awarded under the 1998 Director Option Plan, at an exercise price per share of $19.51 which was the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on that date. In addition, each non-employee director received an annual cash retainer of $14,000. Each member of the Audit Committee and Compensation Committee, other than its Chairman, received cash compensation of $3,000 in 2005.

The Audit Committee Chairman, Mr. Bhalla received cash compensation of $5,000 following the December 16, 2005 meeting.

On October 20, 2006, the Company held the annual meeting of stockholders.

On November 11, 2007, the board of directors met and decided to double the amount of options granted to each non-employee director it to 3000 stock options after each annual meeting of stockholders. During 2007, however, no stock options or restricted stock were granted to any non-employee director. Each non-employee director received an annual cash retainer of $14,000 during 2007. Mr. Keller and Benz received $5,000 following the annual meeting of stockholders on November 15, 2007 for serving on both the Audit and Compensation Committees.

Our Certificate of Incorporation currently authorizes the issuance of 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.10. As of August 29, 2008, the “Record Date” there were 3,176,385 shares of our Common Stock were outstanding.

Description of the Amendment

On August 28, 2008, our Board of Directors unanimously approved an amendment to Article IV of the Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amendment”), subject stockholder approval, to increase the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Certificate of Incorporation by 10,000,000 to a total of 20,000,000 shares.

If the Amendment is approved by a majority of stockholders, it will become effective upon its filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Company expects to file the Amended with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware very shortly after its approval by stockholders. The authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock would be available for issuance from time to time for such purposes and for such consideration as the Board of Directors may determine to be appropriate without further action by the stockholders, except for those instances in which applicable law or stock exchange rules require stockholder approval. The additional shares of authorized Common Stock, when issued, would have the same rights and privileges as the shares of common stock currently issued and outstanding.

The last sentence of Article IV of the Certificate of Incorporation is proposed to be amended and restated in its entirety. This article currently provides that:

The total number of shares of Common Stock authorized to be issued is 10,000,000 and each such shares will have a par value of ten cents ($.10).

As amended and restated, the last sentence of the first paragraph of Article IV of the Certificate of Incorporation is proposed to read as follows:

The total number of shares of Common Stock authorized to be issued is 20,000,000 and each such shares will have a par value of ten cents ($.10).

Purposes of the Amendment

The primary purpose of the Amendment is to provide additional shares of common stock which may be used by us: (i) to grant a dividend in the form of a forward stock split (ii) to increase the number of shares available to be issued for issuance to holders of convertible preferred stock, options and warrants granted prior to or after the date hereof, (iii) to establish additional employee compensation plans or to increase the shares available under current plans, (iv) for issuance in connection with future financing activities of the Company, including public and private offerings of the Common Stock or upon conversion of other equity or debt securities, (v) for issuance in connection with future corporate acquisitions, or (vi) other corporate purposes.

Upon the effective date of the Amendment, we will have approximately 15,365,250 shares of common stock authorized and available for future issuance. Very shortly after the approval of the Amendment of the Certificate and its filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, the Board of Directors plans to set a record date for a three -for- one forward split of outstanding common stock of the Company. Other than such stock split or as permitted or required under our existing contractual obligations and outstanding options, the Board of Directors has no immediate plans, understandings, agreements or commitments to issue additional shares of common stock for any purposes.

The Board of Directors believes that the increase in the number of authorized shares of common stock will make a sufficient number of shares available, should we decide to use our shares for one or more of such previously mentioned purposes or otherwise. We reserve the right to seek a further increase in authorized shares from time to time in the future as considered appropriate by the Board of Directors.

Other Potential Effects of the Amendment

Upon filing the Amendment, the Board of Directors may cause the issuance of additional shares of common stock without further vote of our stockholders, except as provided under the DGCL (or any national securities exchange on which shares of our common stock are then listed or traded). Under our Certificate of Incorporation, our stockholders do not have preemptive rights to subscribe to additional securities which may be issued by the Company, which means that current stockholders do not have a prior right to purchase any new issue of our capital stock in order to maintain their proportionate ownership of common stock. In addition, if the Board of Directors elects to issue additional shares of common stock, for purposes other than to facilitate the previously discussed three-for-one stock split, such issuance could have a dilutive effect on the earnings per share, voting power and holdings of current stockholders.

In addition to the corporate purposes discussed above, the Amendment could, under certain circumstances, have an anti-takeover effect, although this is not the intent of the Board of Directors. For example, the existence of authorized but unissued shares of common stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

Board Recommendation

Our Board of Directors recommends that you vote “FOR” the Amendment.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation Disclosure and Analysis

Objectives and Goals

The objectives of the committee has been to adopt a compensation approach that is basically simple, internally equitable and externally competitive, and that attracts, motivates and retains qualified people capable of contributing to the growth, success and profitability of the Company, thereby contributing to long-term stockholder value.

• Simplicity. The committee believes that a compensation package with three major elements of compensation is the simplest approach consistent with the Company’s goals. The Company generally does not utilize special personal perquisites such as private jets, payment of country club dues, Company-furnished motor vehicles, permanent lodging or defrayment of the cost of personal entertainment.

• Internal Equity. Internal equity has generally been evaluated based on an assessment of the relative contributions of the members of the management team. In 2007, the committee did not undertake any formal audit or similar analysis of compensation equity with respect to either the CEO relative to the other members of the management team or with respect to the management team relative to the Company’s employees generally. However, the committee believes that the relative difference between CEO compensation and the compensation of the Company’s other executives is consistent with such differences found in the Company’s insurance services peer group and the market for executive level personnel for public companies of similar size.

• External Competitiveness. The committee believes it is important to management retention and morale that compensation be competitive with our competitors. As a part of that exercise, the committee hired an outside compensation consultant to review the competitive landscape and to establish transparent criterion for CEO compensation. Based on the consultant’s report and the contributions provided by individual board members, based on their business experiences, the compensation committee established a transparent plan for CEO compensation. The plan was unanimously adopted by the board of directors.

Major Compensation Components

The principal components of compensation for our executive officers are base salary, short-term incentives, generally in the form of cash bonus programs, and long-term incentives, generally in the form of equity-based awards such as stock awards. We believe the Company’s goals are best met by utilizing an approach to compensation with these three distinct elements.

• Base Salaries. The Company’s base salaries are intended to be consistent with the committee’s understanding of competitive practices, levels of executive responsibility, qualifications necessary for the particular executive position, and the expertise and experience of the executive officer. Salary adjustments reflect the committee’s belief as to competitive trends, the performance of the individual and, to some extent, the overall financial condition of the Company.

• Short-Term Incentives. The short-term incentive for an executive is the opportunity to earn an annual cash bonus. The committee has concluded that bonus payments should be primarily based on the achievement of specific predetermined profit and expense control targets while a smaller portion should be discretionary based on the committee’s evaluation of an executive’s individual performance in specific qualitative areas. We do not disclose specific profit and expense control targets or other specific quantitative or qualitative performance related factors. Such targets and information are intended as a way to allocate risk and reward in the best manner to motivate the Company’s management. Likewise, such targets may be subject to change based on subsequent developments or may be dependent on events or assumptions which are, either in whole or in part, beyond the control of the Company or the named officer.

Short-term incentive compensation is generally based on three performance criteria: (a) profitability, (b) revenue growth, and (c) other specific performance criteria. Under the short-term incentive plan for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, an incentive bonus of $1,050,000 was paid to Robin Raina, our one named executive officer who was employed during the entire fiscal year.

When determining bonuses for executive officers, we particularly took into account two factors, Ebix’s performance as compared to its industry peers and the increased operating income performance. Potential bonuses, as a percentage of base salary, were higher for our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, reflecting their greater responsibility for and greater ability to influence the achievement of targets.

The following table sets forth for each named executive officer, the bonus percentage potentially attributable to performance targets and the percentage attributable to the committee’s discretion. The committee has the authority to adjust, waive or reset targets.

The following chart sets forth information regarding the actual annual cash incentive awards made to Robin Raina as the only named executive officer employed during the all of 2007.

• Long-Term Incentives. While salary and short-term incentives are primarily designed to compensate current and past performance, the primary goal of the long-term incentive compensation program is to directly link management compensation with the long-term interests of the stockholders.

—Types of Equity Awards and Criteria for Award Type Selection. Prior to 2005, we relied heavily on stock options to provide incentive compensation to our executive officers and other key employees and to align their interests with those of our stockholders. Based on changes in U.S. accounting rules and a general trend toward increased use of restricted stock and decreased use of stock options, the committee has increased the number of awards using restricted stock and decreased the number utilizing stock options. For the immediate future, we intend to rely primarily on restricted stock grants to provide long-term incentive compensation to our officers and key employees, without excluding the possibility of continuing to also grant stock options as a form of incentive compensation.

—Criteria for Award Amounts. In considering whether to grant equity incentives, the committee looks at a variety of factors, with no formal weighting assigned to any single factor or group of factors. The committee evaluates equity incentive awards made by our competitors (both individually and as part of a comparative compensation analysis), other insurance services and technology companies, historical levels of the Company’s equity incentives, the extent to which value under the award is subject to risk, whether the award vehicle has intrinsic value, and the need to motivate and retain persons eligible to participate under the Company’s plans.

—Vesting and Holding Periods for Equity Incentive Compensation. As a means to encourage long term thinking and encourage continued employment with us, the Company’s equity awards are usually subject to a multi-year vesting period. Historically, our grants of stock options and restricted stock have vested over a three year period and the committee anticipates that future awards will continue to be subject to multi-year vesting, most likely for similar three year periods. Historically, the Company has not imposed minimum equity ownership requirements for equity compensation awarded to its executive officers, nor has it required any continued ownership of the securities issued pursuant to such awards after vesting. The committee is still evaluating whether such a policy of minimum stock ownership levels or award retention should be implemented and the potential parameters for any award retention policy. It is anticipated that any such policy would provide for sales in the event of hardship and sales sufficient to generate sufficient income to pay taxes in connection with the award or other awards. The Committee does not anticipate making any determination on whether to implement any such policies or the scope of any such policies before the winter of 2008.

Equity Awards in 2007

In 2007, no stock options and 11,001 shares of restricted stock were granted to the named executive officers of the Company.

Other Compensation Components

Company executives are eligible to participate in the Company’s health care, insurance and other welfare and employee benefit programs, which are the same for all eligible employees, including Ebix’s executive officers.

Use of Employment and Severance Agreements

In the past, the committee has determined that competitive considerations merit the use of employment contracts or severance agreements for certain members of senior management.

Recapture and Forfeiture Policies

Historically the Company has not had formal policies with respect to the adjustment or recapture of performance based awards where the financial measures on which such awards are based or to be based are adjusted for changes in reported results such as, but not limited to, instances where the Company’s financial statements are restated. The committee does not believe that repayment should be required where the Plan participant has acted in good faith and the errors are not attributable to the participant’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In such later situations, the committee believes the Company has or will have available negotiated or legal remedies. However, the committee may elect to take into account factors such as the timing and amount of any financial restatement or adjustment, the amounts of benefits received, and the clarity of accounting requirements lending to any restatement in fixing of future compensation.

Deductibility of Compensation and Related Tax Considerations

As one of the factors in its review of compensation matters, the committee considers the anticipated tax treatment to the Company and to the executives of various payments and benefits.

• Section 162(m). Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) generally limits to $1 million the amount that a publicly-held corporation is allowed each year to deduct for the compensation paid to each of the corporation’s chief executive officer and the corporation’s four most highly compensated executive officers, other than the chief executive officer. However, “performance-based” compensation is not subject to the $1 million deduction limit. In general, to qualify as performance-based compensation, the following requirements must be satisfied: (i) payments must be computed on the basis of an objective, performance-based compensation standard determined by a committee consisting solely of two or more “outside directors,” (ii) the material terms under which the compensation is to be paid, including the business criteria upon which the performance goals are based, and a limit on the maximum amount which may be paid to any participant pursuant to any award with respect to any performance period, are approved by a majority of the corporation’s stockholders, and (iii) the committee certifies that the applicable performance goals were satisfied before payment of any performance-based compensation is made.

Although the Company’s stock option plans generally have been structured with the goal of complying with the requirements of Section 162(m), and the compensation committee believes the restricted staock and stock options awarded there under should qualify as “performance-based” compensation exempt from limitations on deductibility under Section 162(m), the deductibility of any compensation was not a condition to any compensation decision. The Company does not expect its ability to deduct executive compensation to be limited by operation of Section 162(m). However, due to interpretations and changes in the tax laws, some types of compensation payments and their deductibility depend on the timing of an executive’s vesting or exercise of previously granted rights and other factors beyond the compensation committee’s control which could affect the deductibility of compensation.

The compensation committee will continue to carefully consider the impact of Section 162(m) when designing compensation programs, and in making compensation decisions affecting the Company’s Section 162(m) covered executives. We fully expect the majority of future stock awards will be excludable from the Section 162(m) $1 million limit on deductibility, since vesting of any such awards will likely be tied to performance-based criteria, or be part of compensation packages which are less than $1 million dollars. Nonetheless, the compensation committee believes that in certain circumstances factors other than tax deductibility are more important in determining the forms and levels of executive compensation most appropriate and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. Accordingly, it may award compensation in excess of the deductibility limit, with or without requiring a detailed analysis of the estimated tax cost of non-deductible awards to the Company. Given our dynamic and rapidly changing industry and business, as well as the competitive market for outstanding leadership talent, the compensation committee believes it is important to retain the flexibility to design compensation programs consistent with its compensation philosophy for the Company, even if some executive compensation is not fully deductible.

• Section 280G. Code Section 280G generally denies a deduction for a significant portion of certain compensatory payments made to corporate officers, certain shareholders and certain highly-compensated employees if the payments are contingent on a change of control of the employer and the aggregate amounts of the payments to the relevant individual exceed a specified relationship to that individual’s average compensation from the employer over the preceding five years. In addition, Code Section 4999 imposes on that individual a 20% excise tax on the same portion of the payments received for which the employer is denied a deduction under Section 280G. In determining whether to approve an obligation to make payments for which Section 280G would deny the Company a deduction or whether to approve an obligation to indemnify (or “gross-up”) an executive against the effects of the Section 4999 excise tax, the committee has adopted an approach similar to that described above with respect to payments which may be subject to the deduction limitations of Section 162(m).

Chief Executive Officer Compensation

The compensation policies described above apply equally to the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”).

Committee Conclusion

Attracting and retaining talented and motivated management and employees is essential to create long-term stockholder value. Offering a competitive, performance-based compensation program with a large equity component helps to achieve this objective by aligning the interests of the Company’s CEO and other executive officers with those of stockholders. The committee believes that Ebix’s 2007 compensation program met these objectives. Likewise, based on our review, the committee finds the total compensation (and, in the case of the severance and change-in-control scenarios, the potential payouts) to the Company’s CEO and other named executive officer in the aggregate to be reasonable and not excessive.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

As of August 29, 2008, BRiT Insurance Holdings PLC (“BriT”) held 330,163 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 10.4% percent of our outstanding Common Stock. During 2005, we recognized approximately $3,762,000 as services revenue from BRiT and its affiliates. During 2006, we recognized approximately $3,117,000 as services revenue from BRiT and its affiliates. During 2007, we recognized approximately $ 1,680,000 as services revenue from BRiT and its affiliates. Total accounts receivable from BRiT and its affiliates at December 31, 2008 were $665,000. We continue to provide services for BRiT and its affiliates and to receive payments for such services.

Rahul Raina, is the Company’s Assistant Vice President of Business Process Outsourcing and the brother of Robin Raina, our Chairman of the Board, President, and Chief Executive Officer. During 2007 Rahul Raina was paid a salary of $120,000 and received a bonus of $111,000. Previously in 2003 Rahul Raina was granted options to purchase 25,000 shares of our common stock. The options vest over four years from the date of grant and expire ten years from the date of grant. The options had originally been granted with an exercise price below the fair market value on the date of the grant. In December 2006 these options were amended and the exercise price was increased from $2.85 per share to $6.70 per share, which is equal to the fair market value of the common stock underlying the stock options at the original grant date. The option grant was valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. This grant was not subject to any of our stockholder approved stock incentive plans. The Company recognized compensation expense of $28,000 during 2007, $41,000 during 2006, and $24,000 during 2005 related to these options.

REPORT OF AUDIT COMMITTEE

The authority, duties and responsibilities of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company are set forth in detail in the written Audit Committee charter, which was adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company and which complies with the applicable rules of the NASDAQ. The Audit Committee has three members, each of whom is independent, under both the applicable rules of the NASDAQ as well as the Company’s corporate governance policies. In accordance with section 407 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, Pavan Bhalla, the Chairman of the Audit Committee, has been identified as an “Audit Committee Financial Expert”. The Audit Committee met five times during 2007.

The Audit Committee reviews and assesses the adequacy of its charter on an annual basis. A copy of the Audit Committee charter is attached to this proxy statement as Exhibit A and is available on the Company’s website, www.ebix.com.

The Company’s management is responsible for preparing the Company’s financial statements and has represented to the Committee that the financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for auditing the financial statements. The Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Directors. Management of the Company has the primary responsibility for the Company’s financial reporting process, principles and internal controls as well as preparation of its financial statements. The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for performing an audit of the Company’s financial statements and expressing an opinion as to the conformity of such financial statements with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the Company’s audited financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2006 with management and the independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed under auditing standards generally accepted in the United States, including those matters set forth in Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61 (Communication with Audit Committees), as currently in effect, and amended by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 89 (Audit Adjustments) and Statement on Auditing Standards No. 90 (Audit Committee Communications). The independent registered public accounting firm has provided to the Audit Committee the written disclosures and the letter required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussions with Audit Committees), as currently in effect. The Audit Committee has also considered whether the independent registered public accountants’ provision of non-audit services to the Company is compatible with maintaining the independent registered public accountants’ independence. The Audit Committee has concluded that the independent registered public accountants are independent from the Company and its management.

In addition, the members of the Audit Committee reviewed, and the chairman of the committee discussed with management and Habif, Arogeti, & Wynne, LLP (“HAW”) (the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm), the interim financial information contained in each quarterly earnings release prior to the release of such information to the public.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the terms of the engagement of HAWare subject to the specific pre-approval of the Audit Committee. All audit and permitted non-audit services to be performed by HAW require pre-approval by the Audit Committee in accordance with pre-approved procedures established by the Audit Committee. The procedures require all proposed engagements of HAW for services of any kind to be directed to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and then submitted for approval to the Audit Committee prior to the beginning of any services.

In fiscal 2007 100% of the audit fees, audit related fees and tax fees were approved either by the Audit Committee or its designee. The Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of non-audit services by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is compatible with maintaining auditor independence and believes that the provision of such services is compatible. Further, the Audit Committee discussed with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm the overall scope and plans for their respective audits.

As a result of the reviews and discussions with management and HAW referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors and the Board has approved that the audited financial statements of the Company be included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

This report has been submitted by the Audit Committee:

The Audit Committee considered and pre-approved all of the above-referenced fees and services. Pursuant to a policy adopted by our Board of Directors, the Audit Committee requires advance approval of all audit services and permitted non-audit services to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm as required by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our officers and directors and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission reports of securities ownership on Form 3 and changes in such ownership on Forms 4 and 5 Officers. Directors and more than ten percent beneficial owners also are required by rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission to furnish us with copies of all such Section 16(a) reports that they file. Based solely upon a review of the copies of Forms 3, 4, and 5 furnished to us and/or representations by certain executive officers and directors that no such reports were required for them, we believe that, during 2007, all of our directors, officers and more than ten percent beneficial owners filed all such reports on a timely basis except for the failure of Robin Raina to file Form 4s for two grants of restricted stock on May 9, 2007 and November 11, 2007.

OTHER MATTERS

We know of no matters to be brought before the Annual Meeting other than those described above. If you execute the enclosed proxy and any other business should come before the meeting, we expect that the persons named in the enclosed proxy will vote your shares in accordance with their best judgment on that matter.

EXHIBIT A

Ebix, Inc.
AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER

A. Purpose

The Audit Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Ebix, Inc. (the “Company”) shall oversee the Company’s accounting and financial reporting processes and the audits of the Company’s financial statements, and shall otherwise exercise oversight responsibility, and assist the Board in fulfilling its oversight functions, with respect to matters involving the accounting, auditing, financial reporting and internal control functions of the Company. In so doing, it shall be the goal of the Committee to maintain free and open means of communication between the members of the Board, the Company’s independent public accountants who audit the Company’s financial statements (the “Auditors”) and the Company’s financial management. While it is not the Committee’s responsibility to certify the Company’s financial statements or to guarantee the Auditors’ report, the Committee will facilitate discussions among the Board, the Auditors and the Company’s management.

B. Composition

The Committee shall be comprised of three or more directors, as determined by the Board on the recommendation of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee. Each member of the Committee shall be “independent” as defined by the rules of The NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) that are applicable to Audit Committee members. Each committee member shall also be free from any relationship that, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with the exercise of his or her independent judgment as a member of the Committee.

All members of the Committee shall have a basic understanding of finance and accounting and be able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including the Company’s balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement. At least one member of the Committee shall have accounting or related financial management expertise consisting of employment experience in finance or accounting, requisite professional certification in accounting, or other comparable experience or background, which results in the individual’s financial sophistication, including being or having been a chief executive officer, chief financial officer or other senior officer with financial oversight responsibilities.

The Committee shall comply with any other Audit Committee composition requirements of NASDAQ and the SEC.

C. Meetings

The Committee shall meet with such frequency and at such intervals as it shall determine necessary to carry out its duties and responsibilities, but not less than quarterly. In addition, the Committee shall hold any special meetings as may be necessary or called by the Chairperson of the Committee or at the request of the Auditors or the Company’s management. Representatives of the Auditors, members of the Company’s management and others may attend meetings of the Committee at the invitation of the Committee and shall provide pertinent information as necessary. As part of its purpose to foster open and candid communication, the Committee shall meet periodically as necessary with the Auditors, the Company’s management and any others that the Committee invites to meet with it in separate executive sessions to discuss any matters that the Committee or these individuals believe should be discussed privately with the Committee. The Committee may meet via telephone conference calls or take action in writing executed by all of the members. Except as otherwise specifically provided for in this Charter, a quorum shall consist of [two] members.

Unless the Board elects a Chairperson of the Committee (the “Chairperson”) the Committee shall elect a Chairperson by majority vote. The Chairperson of the Committee shall set the agenda of each meeting and arrange for the distribution of the agenda, together with supporting material, to the Committee members prior to each meeting. The Chairperson will also cause to be prepared and circulated to the Committee members minutes of each meeting.

D. Functions

In carrying out its functions, the Committee’s policies and procedures shall remain flexible, so that it may be in a position to react or respond to changing circumstances or conditions. The Committee shall review and reassess no less than annually the adequacy of the Committee’s charter.

The Committee’s functions may be divided into the following general categories: (1) overseeing financial reporting, (2) evaluating independent audit processes, (3) reviewing internal controls established by management, and (4) other functions. The Committee shall:

1. Financial Information and Reports

a. Meet with the Auditors and the Company’s management to discuss, review and comment upon the interim financial statements to be included in each of the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q prior to the public announcement of financial results and the filing of the Form 10-Q with the SEC. All members of the Committee are encouraged to attend these meetings; however, a quorum for these meetings or for this portion of regular meetings of the Committee may be the Chairperson of the Committee as authorized by applicable rules.

b. Review with the Auditors and the Company’s management the Company’s annual financial statements to be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K prior to the public announcement of financial results and the filing of the Form 10-K with the SEC.

d. Review the Company’s press releases announcing financial results or financial forecasts of the Company prior to their dissemination.

The proxy statement shall also contain a statement as to whether the Committee members are independent and that the Committee has adopted a charter.

h. Review a report from the Auditors periodically, but no less than annually, as to (i) all critical accounting policies to be used, (ii) all alternative disclosures and treatments of financial information within generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) that have been discussed with the Company’s management, the ramifications of the use of such alternative disclosures and treatments and the disclosures and treatments preferred by the Auditors; and (iii) other material written communications between the Auditors and the Company’s management, including management letters and schedules of unadjusted differences.

i. Recommend to the Board, based upon the review and discussion described above, whether the annual financial statements should be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

b. Pre-approve all audit services and non-audit services (including the fees and terms thereof) to be performed for the Company by the Auditors to the extent required by, and in a manner consistent with, applicable law and policies established by the Committee. The Committee may delegate, subject to any rules or limitations it deems appropriate, to one or more designated members of the Committee the authority to grant such pre-approvals; provided, however, that the decisions of any member to whom authority is so delegated to pre-approve an activity shall be presented to the full Committee for ratification at its next meeting.

c. On an annual basis, review the Auditors’ independence and objectivity by (i) inquiring into matters such as all relationships between the Auditors and the Company and (ii) reviewing annual disclosures from the Auditors regarding their independence as required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1.

d. On an annual basis, obtain and review a report from the Auditors concerning their internal quality control review of the firm, any inquiry or investigation by governmental or professional authorities within the preceding five (5) years respecting one or more independent audits carried out by the firm and any steps taken to address material issues raised by such review or any such inquiry or investigation.

e. Review the experience and qualifications of the senior members of the Auditors’ team.

f. Review the annual audit plan of the Auditors and evaluate their performance and adherence to the prior year’s audit plan.

h. Review and approve or veto the Company’s hiring of employees or former employees of the Auditors who participated in any capacity in the audits of the Company.

i. Following completion of the annual audit, review separately with the Company’s management and the Auditors the effectiveness of the audit effort, including significant difficulties encountered during the course of the audit and any restrictions on the scope of work or access to required information.

3. Risk Management and Controls

d. Review with the Auditors and the Company’s management the extent to which changes or improvements in financial or accounting practices, as approved by the Committee, have been implemented. This review will be conducted at an appropriate time subsequent to the implementation of changes or improvements, as decided by the Committee.

e. Periodically review with the Company’s legal counsel any matters that could have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements, such as compliance with laws, rules and regulations, litigation and inquiries received from governmental agencies and regulators.

f. Review and approve the appointment, replacement, reassignment or dismissal of the Company’s principal financial officer.

4. Other Functions

a. Establish procedures for the receipt, retention, and treatment of complaints received by the Company regarding accounting, internal accounting controls, or auditing matters.

b. Establish procedures for the confidential, anonymous submission by Company employees of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters.

c. Review and approve related party transactions and conflicts of interest questions between Board members or senior management, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand (as defined and required by applicable securities laws, rules and regulations and the rules of the NASDAQ).

Determine appropriate funding, which the Company shall provide, for payment of: (i) compensation to the Auditors engaged for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or performing other audit, review or attest services for the Company, (ii) compensation to any advisors employed by the Committee, and (iii) ordinary administrative expenses of the Committee that are necessary or appropriate in carrying out its duties.

i. Perform such other functions assigned by law, the Company’s charter or bylaws, or the Board of Directors.

E. Scope of Responsibilities

While the Committee has the functions set forth in this Charter, it is not the duty of the Committee to plan or conduct audits or to determine that the Company’s financial statements are complete and accurate or are in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s management is principally responsible for Company accounting policies, the preparation of the financial statements and ensuring that the financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management is also responsible for implementing procedures to help ensure that the Company and its employees comply with applicable laws and regulations and with the Company’s applicable ethics standards. The Auditors are responsible for auditing and attesting to the Company’s financial statements and understanding the Company’s system of internal controls in order to plan and to determine the nature, timing and extent of audit procedures to be performed.

The Committee plays a critical role in serving as a check and balance for the Company’s financial reporting system. In carrying out its functions, the Committee’s goal is to help ensure that management properly develops and adheres to a sound system of internal controls and that the Auditors, through their own review, objectively assess the Company’s financial reporting practices.
