This Amendment No. 15 (“Amendment No. 15”) to Schedule 13D amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D originally filed by Red Oak Partners, LLC (the “Reporting Persons”) on April 20, 2009, as amended by amendment 1 through 14 (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”) relating to the common stock (the “Common Stock”) of Asure Software, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”).  The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at 3700 N. Capital of Texas Hwy #350, Austin, Texas 78746.  Except as specifically amended and supplemented by this Amendment No. 15, all other provision of the Schedule 13D remain in full force and effect.  Unless otherwise indicated, each capitalized term used but not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Schedule 13D.
