available to the Purchasers prior to the date hereof, have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting standards consistently applied

complete and correct in all material respects and accurately set out and
describe in all material respects the financial condition, results of
operations, cash flows or changes in stockholders' equity of the Company as of
the date or for the period indicated. There has been no material change in the
Company's accounting policies except as described in the notes to the Financial
Statements. Except as set forth in the Financial Statements, neither the
Company nor any of its subsidiaries has any indebtedness, obligation or
liability (contingent or otherwise) that, either alone or when combined with all
similar obligations or liabilities, would be material to the Company on a
consolidated basis, and there does not exist a set of circumstances that, to the
knowledge of the Company, could reasonably be expected to result in any such
material indebtedness, obligation or liability. Since September 30, 1997, there
has been no material adverse change in the business, financial condition,
results of operations, assets, liabilities or prospects of the Company, which is
not disclosed on the Financial Statements or financial information as of a later
date set forth in the Disclosure Schedule.
(i) COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. Neither the Company nor any of its
subsidiaries is (i) subject to the terms or provisions of any material judgment,
decree, order, writ or injunction or (ii) in violation of any terms or
provisions of any laws, rules, or regulations, except where such violations do
not and are not likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(j) TITLE TO PROPERTY AND ASSETS. Each of the Company and each of
its subsidiaries owns and possesses its properties and assets (other than
Proprietary Assets, which are covered in subsection (k) below) free and clear of
all mortgages, deeds of trust, liens, encumbrances, security interests and
claims except as reflected in the Financial Statements and except for statutory
liens for the payment of current taxes that are not yet delinquent and liens,
encumbrances and security interests which arise in the ordinary course of
business and which do not affect material properties and assets of the Company
and its subsidiaries. With respect to the property and assets it leases, each
of the Company and each of its subsidiaries is in compliance with such leases in
all material respects.
(k) PROPRIETARY ASSETS.
(i) Each of the Company and each of its subsidiaries (A) owns
or has sufficient rights to all Proprietary Assets used in or necessary for its
business as currently conducted and as proposed to be conducted, free and clear
of all material liens and other encumbrances; (B) has taken reasonable and
customary measures and precautions necessary to protect and maintain the
confidentiality and secrecy of all its Proprietary Assets (except the
Proprietary Assets whose value would be unimpaired by
6
public disclosure) and otherwise to maintain and protect the value of all its
Proprietary Assets; and (C) has not disclosed or delivered to any person, or
permitted the disclosure or delivery to any person of the source code, or any
portion or aspect of the source code, of any of the Company's products.
(ii) Except where such infringement, misappropriation or
unlawful use has not or could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect, neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is infringing,
misappropriating or making any unlawful use of or has at any time infringed,
misappropriated or made any unlawful use of, any Proprietary Asset owned or used
by any other person; and no claims or notices (in writing or otherwise) with
respect to Proprietary Assets have been communicated to the Company or any of
its subsidiaries: (A) to the effect that the manufacture, sale, license or use
of any Proprietary Assets as now used or currently offered or proposed for use
or sale by the Company or any of its subsidiaries infringes or potentially
infringes, or constitutes a misappropriation or unlawful use of any copyright,
patent, trade secret or other intellectual property right of a third party, or
(B) challenging the ownership or validity of any of the rights of the Company or
any of its subsidiaries to or interest in such Proprietary Assets. The Company
has received no notice to the effect that any patents or registered trademarks,
service marks or registered copyrights held by the Company or any of its
subsidiaries are invalid or not subsisting except for failures to be valid and
subsisting that would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. To the Company's knowledge, no other person is infringing,
misappropriating or making any unlawful use of, and no Proprietary Asset owned
or used by any other person infringes or conflicts with, any Proprietary Asset
used in or pertaining to the business of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
(iii) The Proprietary Assets used in or pertaining to the
business of the Company and its subsidiaries are sufficient in the Company's
reasonable judgment, to enable the Company and its subsidiaries to conduct its
business in the manner in which such business has been and is being conducted
free from liabilities or valid claims of infringement or misappropriation by
third parties. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has licensed any
of its Proprietary Assets to any person on an exclusive basis and the Company
has not entered into any covenant not to compete or contract limiting its
ability to sell the Company's products in any market or geographical area or
with any person other than restrictions in a license agreement that are typical
of those granted in the ordinary course of business in the software industry.
(iv) As used herein, "Proprietary Assets" means: (A) any
patent, patent application, trademark (whether registered or unregistered),
trademark application, trade name, fictitious business name, service xxxx
(whether registered or unregistered), service xxxx application, copyright
(whether registered or unregistered), copyright application, maskwork, maskwork

intellectual property right or intangible asset; and (B) any right to use or
exploit any of the foregoing.
