                 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                             JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1997
        (DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE AMOUNTS)


The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been
prepared by H.T.E., Inc., without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations
of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to such
rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are
adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These condensed
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements for the year ended March 31, 1996, and the nine months
ended December 31, 1996 and the notes thereto, included in the Company's Form
S-1 Registration Statement (File No. 333-22637) filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein
include normal recurring adjustments and reflect all adjustments which are, in
the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of such financial
statements. The Company's business is seasonal and, accordingly, interim results
are not indicative of results for a full year.

1.   INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING AND RECAPITALIZATION

On June 16, 1997, the Company successfully completed its initial public offering
of common stock. Of the 2,500,000 shares of common stock sold, 1,950,000 were
sold by H.T.E., Inc. and 550,000 were sold by certain selling shareholders. The
Company sold the 1,950,000 shares of common stock for $19,056 net of issuance
costs of $2,818.

Concurrent with the effectiveness of the Company's registration statement on
Form S-1, the Company completed a recapitalization pursuant to which all
outstanding shares of Redeemable Preferred Stock, Class A Common stock and Class
C Common Stock were split 53-for-one and exchanged simultaneously on a 
one-for-one basis for shares of the Company's newly authorized Common Stock. As
part of the recapitalization, the Company paid $624 in accrued dividends on the
Redeemable Preferred Stock. The Redeemable Preferred Stock, Class A Common
Stock, Class B Common Stock and Class C Common stock were then canceled, retired
and eliminated from the shares the Company is authorized to issue.

Subsequent to June 30, 1997, the underwriters exercised their option to purchase
375,000 additional shares of common stock to cover over-allotments. The Company
received $3,836 from the transaction, net of additional issuance costs of $289.

2.   LITIGATION

The Company is involved in various legal actions arising in the normal course of
business, as both a claimant and a defendant. While it is not possible to
determine with certainty the outcome of these matters, in the opinion of
management, the eventual resolution of these claims and actions outstanding will
not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or
operating results.

3.   EARNINGS PER SHARE

PRO FORMA NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE. Pro forma net income (loss) per
common share is determined by dividing net income (loss), as adjusted for the
effects of the assumed conversion of the mandatorily redeemable Class C common
stock as of the date it was first issued, by the proforma weighted average
number of common and

  (DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE AMOUNTS) (CONTINUED)

common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common share equivalents
are computed using the treasury stock method and consist of common stock which
may be issuable upon the exercise of outstanding common stock options, when
dilutive.

The pro forma weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares
outstanding during the period assumes the conversion of the mandatorily
redeemable preferred stock outstanding prior to the twelve-month period
preceding the initial filing date into Class A common stock as of the date such
preferred stock was first issued. Pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission
Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 83, stock issued and common stock options granted
by the Company during the 12 months preceding the initial filing date have been
included in the calculation of pro forma weighted average common and common
equivalent shares outstanding, using the treasury stock method based on the
initial public offering price of $11.00, as if the stock and options were
outstanding for all periods presented.

All share and per share information in the financial statements have been
adjusted to give effect to the 53-to-1 common stock split and par value
restatement which became effective concurrent with the effectiveness of the
registration statement.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS. The Financial Accounting Standards Board recently
issued SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share". SFAS No. 128 will require the
presentation of "basic" and "diluted" earnings per share ("EPS") and is
effective for periods ending after December 15, 1997. Generally, the Company
expects basic EPS, which is calculated based on the weighted-average number of
shares outstanding, to be slightly higher than primary EPS currently presented.
Diluted EPS, which would include the effects of dilutive potential common
shares, is expected to approximate primary EPS. The pro forma earnings per share
for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, utilizing the
requirements of SFAS No. 128 are as follows:

4.   NON-RECURRING CHARGES - OFFICE RELOCATION/MOVE EXPENSES

During the quarter ended June 30, 1997, the Company closed two of its Midwest
regional offices and a West Coast regional office and relocated its headquarters
20 miles north of its Orlando, FL location to Lake Mary, FL. As a result, the
Company incurred non-recurring relocation and move related expenses. The
provision for relocation of offices expense includes the costs for reimbursing
certain employees for real estate transactions, moving expenses and severance.
The provision for relocation expenses also includes move and dual building costs
related to the change in headquarters location. This charge decreased income
from operations by $300 ($180 or $0.03 per share after taxes) for the three and
six-month periods ended June 30, 1997. On a proforma basis without these
charges, earnings per share would have been $0.09 versus $0.06 for the
three-month period ended June 30, 1997.

5.   EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

The Company adopted an Employee Stock Purchase Plan on July 23, 1997, subject to
shareholder approval at the next annual meeting. The plan shall be effective as
of September 1, 1997 and is designed to qualify as an employee stock purchase
plan under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Two
hundred thousand shares will be reserved for issuance over the term of the plan,
subject to periodic adjustment for changes in the outstanding common stock
occasioned by stock

splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations or other similar changes. The plan
qualifies as a non-compensatory plan under APB Opinion No. 25, therefore, the
plan is not expected to have any effect on the income statement.

increase of $5,785 or 81.6%. Revenues from software licenses were $4,827 for the
three months ended June 30, 1997 compared to $1,036 for the period ended June

applications available for sale and an increased investment in sales and
marketing. Revenues from professional services were $2,413 for the three months
ended June 30, 1997 compared to $1,701 for the three months ended June 30, 1996,
an increase of $712 or 41.9%, directly related to new software licenses and the
Company's increased number of service offerings. Hardware revenues were $2,638
for the three months ended June 30, 1997 compared to $2,300 for the three months
ended June 30, 1996, an increase of $338 or 14.7%, as the Company expanded its
third-party re-marketing sales through IBM. Revenues from maintenance and other
were $2,995 for the three months ended June 30, 1997 compared to $2,051 for the
three months ended June 30, 1996, an increase of $944 or 46.0%. This change was
a result of maintenance contracts associated with new software licenses,
customer system upgrades and price increases in the fees charged for annual
maintenance.

   COST OF REVENUES Cost of software licenses, which include third-party
royalties and amortization of computer software development costs, was $1,257
for the three months ended June 30, 1997 compared to $676 for the three months
ended June 30, 1996, an increase of $581 or 85.9%, as a result of increased
number of software licenses, specifically, third party public safety products.
Cost of professional services, which consists primarily of personnel costs and
other costs related to the services business, was $1,423 for the three months
ended June 30, 1997 compared to $1,056 for the three months ended June 30, 1996,
an increase of $367 or 34.8%. This was directly related to increased
professional service revenues and expanded offerings of full service
professional services. Cost of hardware, which consists primarily of costs
payable to vendors for hardware, was $1,938 for the three months ended June 30,
1997 compared to $1,815 for the three months ended June 30, 1996, an increase of
$123 or 6.8%, which is directly related to the increased hardware sales. Cost of
maintenance and other for the three months ended June 30, 1997 was $1,302
compared to $636 for the three months ended June 30, 1996, an increase of $666
or 104.7%. This was due to investment in new customer support processes,
increased personnel to enhance products and additional computer equipment
required to handle GUI interfaces to the AS400.

   RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES Research and development expenses are
comprised primarily of salaries and a portion of the Company's overhead for its
in-house staff and amounts paid to outside consultants to supplement the product
development efforts of its in-house staff. Research and development expenses
were $1,508 for the three months ended June 30, 1997 compared to $1,224 for the
three months ended June 30, 1996, an increase of $284 or 23.2%. This was due to
increased staffing levels and expenses for additional software and hardware
required for the development of additional products and platforms.

of salaries, commissions, travel related benefits and administrative costs
allocated to the Company's sales and marketing personnel. Sales and marketing
expenses were $2,495 for the three months ended June 30, 1997 compared to $1,332
for the three months ended June 30, 1996, an increase of $1,163 or 87.3%. This
increase was attributable to the Company's continued expansion of its direct
sales force, increased marketing efforts, travel and other expenses related to
increased sales activity.

   GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES General and administrative expenses
include the costs of corporate operations, finance and accounting, human
resources and other general operations of the Company. General and
administrative expenses were $2,088 for the three months ended June 30, 1997
compared to $1,251 for the three months ended June 30, 1996, an increase of $837
or 66.9%. This increase was due to additional staffing, additional facility
related expenses and additional computer equipment and software required to
build the infrastructure to support the Company's growth.

                                  JUNE 30, 1997

   PROVISION FOR RELOCATION OF OFFICES During the quarter ended June 30, 1997,
the Company closed two of its Midwest regional offices and a West Coast regional
office and relocated its headquarters 20 miles north of its Orlando, FL location
to Lake Mary, FL. As a result, the Company incurred non-recurring relocation and
move related expenses. The provision for relocation of offices expense includes
the costs for reimbursing certain employees for real estate transactions, moving
expenses and severance. The provision for relocation expenses also includes move
and dual building costs related to the change in headquarters location. This
charge decreased income from operations by $300 ($180 or $0.03 per share after
taxes) for the three months ended June 30, 1997. On a proforma basis without
these charges, earnings per share would have been $0.09 versus $0.06 for the
three-month period ended June 30, 1997.

applications available for sale and an increased investment in sales and
marketing. Revenues from professional services were $4,180 for the six months
ended June 30, 1997 compared to $3,376 for the six months ended June 30, 1996,
an increase of $804 or 23.8%, as result of new software licenses and the

ended June 30, 1996, an increase of $1,961 or 73.0%. This increase was
attributable to the Company's continued expansion of its direct sales force,

   PROVISION FOR RELOCATION OF OFFICES During the quarter ended June 30, 1997,
the Company closed two of its Midwest regional offices and a West Coast regional
office and relocated its headquarters 20 miles north of its Orlando, FL location
to Lake Mary, FL. As a result, the Company incurred non-recurring relocation and

and dual building costs related to the change in headquarters location. This
charge decreased income from operations by $300 ($180 or $0.03 per share after
taxes) for the six-month period ended June 30, 1997. On a proforma basis without
these charges, earnings per share would have been $0.25 versus $0.22 for the
six-month period ended June 30, 1997.


The Company's revenues and operating results are subject to quarterly and other
fluctuations resulting from a variety of factors, including the effect of
budgeting and purchasing practices of its customers, the length of the customer
evaluation process for the Company's solutions, the timing of customer system
conversions, and the Company's sales practices. Historically, the Company has
achieved its highest income in the fiscal quarter ended March 31 due to the
Company's sales practices. Recently, the Company implemented a new sales and
marketing program and changed its fiscal year end to December 31 which the
Company believes will moderate such fluctuations. Based on this change in sales
practices combined with the change in fiscal year end, the Company believes that
historical quarterly operating data should not be relied upon as an indicator of
future performance. However, the Company has often recognized a substantial
portion of its revenues during the last month of each quarter. Since a
significant portion of the Company's operating expenses is relatively fixed, the
Company may not be able to adjust or reduce spending in response to sales
shortfalls or delays. These factors can cause significant variations in
operating results from quarter to quarter. The Company believes that quarter to
quarter comparisons of its financial results are not necessarily meaningful and
should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance. To conform to
industry standards, the Company changed its fiscal year end from March 31 to
December 31, effective December 31, 1996.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

On June 16, 1997, the Company successfully completed its initial public offering
of common stock. Of the 2,500,000 shares of common stock sold, 1,950,000 were
sold by H.T.E., Inc. and 550,000 were sold by certain selling shareholders. The
Company sold the 1,950,000 shares of common stock for $19,056 net of issuance
costs of $2,818. Subsequent to June 30, 1997, the underwriters exercised their
option to purchase 375,000 additional shares of common stock to cover
over-allotments. The Company received $3,836 from the transaction, net of
additional issuance costs of $289. The Company has invested the net proceeds in
short-term, investment grade, interest-bearing securities.

                                  JUNE 30, 1997


Cash used in investing activities (capital expenditures, software development
investments and acquisitions) totaled $1,321 and $1,351 during the six months
ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Capital expenditures were primarily
comprised of the Company's investments in equipment and related software
development costs. In addition, the Company made significant investments in
upgrading internal systems.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $16,109 in the six months ended
June 30, 1997, compared to $408 in the comparable 1996 period. The 1997 period
reflects net proceeds from the initial public offering of $19,056 partially
offset by the repayment of the Company's line of credit. Cash provided by
financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 1996 related primarily to
the issuance of common and preferred stock which raised $476 and net repayments
of $68.

The Company believes its cash balances, cash generated from operations and
borrowings available under its line of credit will satisfy the Company's working
capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months. In
the longer term, the Company may require additional sources of liquidity to fund
future growth. Such sources of liquidity may include additional equity offerings
or debt financings. In the normal course of business, the Company evaluates
acquisitions of businesses, products and technologies that complement the
Company's business. The Company has not executed any agreements with respect to
any such transaction.

      3. ELIGIBILITY.

         (a) Any Employee shall be eligible to become a Participant as of any
Entry Date coinciding with or following the date on which he becomes an
Employee, subject to the requirements of Section 5(a) and the limitations
imposed by Section 423(b) of the Code.

         (b) Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, no
Participant shall be granted an option under the Plan (i) if, immediately after
the grant, such Participant (or any other person whose stock would be attributed
to such Participant pursuant to Section 424(d) of the Code) would own stock
and/or hold outstanding options to purchase stock possessing 5% or more of the
total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Company or

rights to purchase stock under all employee stock purchase plans of the Company
and its Subsidiaries intended to qualify under Section 423 of the Code to accrue
at a rate which exceeds $25,000 of fair market value of stock (determined at the
time such option is granted) for each calendar year in which such option is
outstanding at any time.

         4. OFFERING PERIODS. The Plan shall be implemented by a series of
consecutive Offering Periods. The first Offering Period shall commence on the
First Offering Date, the second Offering Period shall commence on the first
business day in 1998, and succeeding Offering Periods shall commence on the
first business day of January and the first business day of July in each
succeeding calendar year (or at such other time or times as may be determined by
the Committee). The Committee shall have the power to change the duration and/or
the frequency of Offering Periods 
 
                                      3

<PAGE>

with respect to future offerings without stockholder approval if such change is
announced at least fifteen (15) days prior to the scheduled beginning of the
first Offering Period to be affected.

      5. ELECTION TO PARTICIPATE.

         (a) An eligible Employee may elect to participate in the Plan
commencing on any Entry Date by completing an enrollment agreement on the form
provided by the Company and filing the enrollment agreement with the Company on
or prior to such Entry Date, unless a later time for filing the enrollment
agreement is set by the Committee for all eligible Employees with respect to a
given offering. The enrollment agreement shall set forth the percentage of the
Participant's Compensation that is to be withheld by payroll deduction pursuant
to the Plan.

         (b) Except as otherwise determined by the Committee under rules
applicable to all Participants, payroll deductions for a Participant shall
commence on the first payroll following the Entry Date on which the Participant
elects to participate in accordance with Section 5(a) and shall end on the last
payroll in the Offering Period, unless sooner terminated by the Participant as
provided in Section 11.

         (c) Unless a Participant elects otherwise prior to the last Exercise
Date of an Offering Period, such Participant shall be deemed (i) to have elected
to participate in the immediately succeeding Offering Period (and, for purposes
of such Offering Period such Participant's "Entry Date" shall be deemed to be
the first day of such Offering Period) and (ii) to have authorized the same
payroll deduction for such immediately succeeding Offering Period as was in
effect for such Participant immediately prior to the commencement of such
succeeding Offering Period.

      6. PARTICIPANT CONTRIBUTIONS.

         (a) Except as otherwise authorized by the Committee pursuant to Section
6(d) below, all Participant contributions to the Plan shall be made only by
payroll deductions. At the time a Participant files the enrollment agreement
with respect to an Offering Period, the Participant may authorize payroll
deductions to be made on each payroll date during the portion of the Offering
Period that he or she is a Participant in an amount not less than 1% and not
more than 25% of the Participant's Compensation on each payroll date during the
portion of the Offering Period that he or she is a Participant (or subsequent
Offering Periods as provided in Section 5(c)). The amount of payroll deductions
shall be a whole percentage (i.e., 1%, 2%, 3%, etc.) of the Participant's
Compensation.

         (b) A Participant may discontinue his or her participation in the Plan
as provided in Section 11, or may decrease or increase the rate or amount of his
or her payroll deductions during such Offering Period (within the limitations of
Section 6(a) above) by completing and filing with the Company a new enrollment
agreement authorizing a change in the rate or amount of payroll deductions;
PROVIDED, that a Participant may not change the rate or amount of his or her
payroll deductions more than once in any Exercise Period. The change in rate or
amount shall be effective

                                       4
<PAGE>

with the first full payroll period following ten (10) business days after the
Company's receipt of the new enrollment agreement.

         (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent necessary to comply
with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code and Section 3(b) hereof, a Participant's
payroll deductions may be decreased to 0% at such time during any Exercise
Period which is scheduled to end during the current calendar year that the
aggregate of all payroll deductions accumulated with respect to such Exercise
Period and any other Exercise Period ending within the same calendar year are
equal to the product of $25,000 multiplied by the Applicable Percentage for the
calendar year. Payroll deductions shall recommence at the rate provided in the
Participant's enrollment agreement at the beginning of the following Exercise
Period which is scheduled to end in the following calendar year, unless
terminated by the Participant as provided in Section 11.

         (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, but
subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3(b), the Committee may permit
Participants to make additional contributions to the Plan subject to such terms
and conditions as the Committee may in its discretion determine. All such
additional contributions shall be made in a manner consistent with the
provisions of Section 423 of the Code or any successor thereto, and shall be
held in Participants' accounts and applied to the purchase of shares of Common
Stock pursuant to options granted under this Plan in the same manner as payroll
deductions contributed to the Plan as provided above.

         (e) All Plan Contributions made for a Participant shall be deposited in
the Company's general corporate account and shall be credited the Participant's
account under the Plan. No interest shall accrue or be credited with respect to
a Participant's Plan Contributions. All Plan Contributions received or held by
the Company may be used by the Company for any corporate purpose, and the
Company shall not be obligated to segregate or otherwise set apart such Plan
Contributions from any other corporate funds.

      7. GRANT OF OPTION.

         (a) On a Participant's Entry Date, subject to the limitations set forth
in Sections 3(b) and 12(a), the Participant shall be granted an option to
purchase on each subsequent Exercise Date during the Offering Period in which
such Entry Date occurs (at the Exercise Price determined as provided in Section
8 below) a number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing such
Participant's Plan Contributions accumulated prior to such Exercise Date and
retained in the Participant's account as of such Exercise Date by the lower of
(i) the Applicable Percentage of the greater of (A) the Fair Market Value of a
share of Common Stock on the Offering Date or (B) the Fair Market Value of a
share of Common Stock on the Entry Date on which the Employee elects to become a
Participant within the Offering Period, or (ii) the Applicable Percentage of the
Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on such Exercise Date; PROVIDED,
that the maximum number of shares an Employee may purchase during any Exercise
Period shall be Five Hundred (500) shares. The Fair Market Value of a share of
Common Stock shall be determined as provided in Section 7(b).

         (b) The Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on a given date
shall be determined by the Committee in its discretion; PROVIDED, that if there
is a public market for the 

                                       5

<PAGE>

Common Stock, the Fair Market Value per share shall be either (i) the closing
price of the Common Stock on such date (or, in the event that the Common Stock
is not traded on such date, on the immediately preceding trading date), as
reported by the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation
(Nasdaq) National Market System, (ii) if such price is not reported, the average
of the bid and asked prices for the Common Stock on such date (or, in the event
that the Common Stock is not traded on such date, on the immediately preceding
trading date), as reported by Nasdaq, (iii) in the event the Common Stock is
listed on a stock exchange, the closing price of the Common Stock on such
exchange on such date (or, in the event that the Common Stock is not traded on
such date, on the immediately preceding trading date), as reported in The Wall
Street Journal, or (iv) if no such quotations are available for a date within a
reasonable time prior to the valuation date, the value of the Common Stock as
determined by the Committee using any reasonable means. For purposes of the
First Offering Date, the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock shall be
the Price to Public as set forth in the final prospectus filed by the Company
with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424 under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

      8. EXERCISE PRICE. The Exercise Price per share of Common Stock offered to
each Participant in a given Offering Period shall be the lower of: (i) the
Applicable Percentage of the greater of (A) the Fair Market Value of a share of
Common Stock on the Offering Date or (B) the Fair Market Value of a share of
Common Stock on the Entry Date on which the Employee elects to become a
Participant within the Offering Period or (ii) the Applicable Percentage of the
Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the Exercise Date. The
Applicable Percentage with respect to each Offering Period shall be 85%, unless
and until such Applicable Percentage is increased by the Committee, in its sole
discretion, provided that any such increase in the Applicable Percentage with
respect to a given Offering Period must be established not less than fifteen
(15) days prior to the Offering Date thereof.

      9. EXERCISE OF OPTIONS. Unless the Participant withdraws from the Plan as
provided in Section 11, the Participant's option for the purchase of shares will
be exercised automatically on each Exercise Date, and the maximum number of full
shares subject to such option shall be purchased for the Participant at the
applicable Exercise Price with the accumulated Plan Contributions then credited
the Participant's account under the Plan. During a Participant's lifetime, a
Participant's option to purchase shares hereunder is exercisable only by the
Participant.

      10. DELIVERY. As promptly as practicable after each Exercise Date, the
Company shall arrange for the delivery to each Participant (or the Participant's
beneficiary), as appropriate, or to a custodial account for the benefit of each
Participant (or the Participant's beneficiary) as appropriate, of a certificate
representing the shares purchased upon exercise of such Participant's option.
Any amount remaining to the credit of a Participant's account after the purchase
of shares by such Participant on an Exercise Date, or which is insufficient to
purchase a full share of Common Stock, shall be carried over to the next
Exercise Period if the Participant continues to participate in the Plan or, if
the Participant does not continue to participate, shall be returned to the
Participant.

      11. WITHDRAWAL; TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.

                                       6
<PAGE>

         (a) A Participant may withdraw from the Plan at any time by giving
written notice to the Company. All of the Plan Contributions credited to the
Participant's account and not yet invested in Common Stock will be paid to the
Participant as soon as administratively practicable after receipt of the
Participant's notice of withdrawal, the Participant's option to purchase shares
pursuant to the Plan automatically will be terminated, and no further payroll
deductions for the purchase of shares will be made for the Participant's
account. Payroll deductions will not resume on behalf of a Participant who has
withdrawn from the Plan (a "Former Participant") unless the Former Participant
enrolls in a subsequent Offering Period in accordance with Section 5(a).

         (b) Upon termination of the Participant's Continuous Status as an
Employee prior to any Exercise Date for any reason, including retirement or
death, the Plan Contributions credited to the Participant's account and not yet
invested in Common Stock will be returned to the Participant or, in the case of
death, to the Participant's beneficiary as determined pursuant to Section 14,
and the Participant's option to purchase shares under the Plan will
automatically terminate.

         (c) A Participant's withdrawal from an Offering Period will not have
any effect upon the Participant's eligibility to participate in succeeding
Offering Periods or in any similar plan which may hereafter be adopted by the
Company.

      12. STOCK.

         (a) The maximum number of shares of the Company's Common Stock that
shall be made available for sale under the Plan shall be Two Hundred Thousand
(200,000) shares, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 17. Shares of
Common Stock subject to the Plan may be newly issued shares or shares reacquired
in private transactions or open market purchases. If and to the extent that any
right to purchase reserved shares shall not be exercised by any Participant for
any reason or if such right to purchase shall terminate as provided herein,
shares that have not been so purchased hereunder shall again become available
for the purpose of the Plan unless the Plan shall have been terminated, but all
shares sold under the Plan, regardless of source, shall be counted against the
limitation set forth above.

         (b) A Participant will have no interest or voting right in shares
covered by his option until such option has been exercised.

         (c) Shares to be delivered to a Participant under the Plan will be
registered in the name of the Participant or in the name of the Participant and
his or her spouse, as requested by the Participant.

      13. ADMINISTRATION.

         (a) The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee
shall have the authority to interpret the Plan, to prescribe, amend and rescind
rules and regulations relating to the Plan, and to make all other determinations
necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan. The administration,
interpretation, or application of the Plan by the Committee shall be final,
conclusive and binding upon all persons.

                                       7
<PAGE>


         (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection (a) of this Section
13, in the event that Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act or any
successor provision thereto ("Rule 16b-3") provides specific requirements for
the administrators of plans of this type, the Plan shall only be administered by
such body and in such a manner as shall comply with the applicable requirements
of Rule 16b-3. Unless permitted by Rule 16b-3, no discretion concerning
decisions regarding the Plan shall be afforded to any person that is not
"disinterested" as that term is used in Rule 16b-3.

      14. DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARY.

         (a) A Participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who
is to receive any shares and cash, if any, from the Participant's account under
the Plan in the event of the Participant's death subsequent to an Exercise Date
on which the Participant's option hereunder is exercised but prior to delivery
to the Participant of such shares and cash. In addition, a Participant may file
a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any cash from the
Participant's account under the Plan in the event of the Participant's death
prior to the exercise of the option.

         (b) A Participant's beneficiary designation may be changed by the
Participant at any time by written notice. In the event of the death of a
Participant and in the absence of a beneficiary validly designated under the
Plan who is living at the time of such Participant's death, the Company shall
deliver such shares and/or cash to the executor or administrator of the estate
of the Participant, or if no such executor or administrator has been appointed
(to the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its discretion, may deliver
such shares and/or cash to the spouse or to any one or more dependents or
relatives of the Participant, or if no spouse, dependent or relative is known to
the Company, then to such other person as the Company may designate.

      15. TRANSFERABILITY. Neither Plan Contributions credited to a
Participant's account nor any rights to exercise any option or receive shares of
Common Stock under the Plan may be assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise
disposed of in any way (other than by will or the laws of descent and
distribution, or as provided in Section 14). Any attempted assignment, transfer,
pledge or other distribution shall be without effect, except that the Company
may treat such act as an election to withdraw funds in accordance with Section
11.

      16. PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS. Individual accounts will be maintained for each
Participant in the Plan to account for the balance of his Plan Contributions and
options issued and shares purchased under the Plan. Statements of account will
be given to Participants semi-annually in due course following each Exercise
Date, which statements will set forth the amounts of payroll deductions, the per
share purchase price, the number of shares purchased and the remaining cash
balance, if any.

      17. ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION; CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS.

         (a) If the outstanding shares of Common Stock are increased or
decreased, or are changed into or are exchanged for a different number or kind
of shares, as a result of one or more reorganizations, restructurings,
recapitalizations, reclassifications, stock splits, reverse stock splits,

                                       8

<PAGE>

stock dividends or the like, upon authorization of the Committee, appropriate
adjustments shall be made in the number and/or kind of shares, and the per-share
option price thereof, which may be issued in the aggregate and to any
Participant upon exercise of options granted under the Plan.

         (b) In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the
Company, the Offering Period will terminate immediately prior to the
consummation of such proposed action, unless otherwise provided by the
Committee. In the event of a proposed sale of all or substantially all of the
Company's assets, or the merger of the Company with or into another corporation
(each, a "Sale Transaction"), each option under the Plan shall be assumed or an
equivalent option shall be substituted by such successor corporation or a parent
or subsidiary of such successor corporation, unless the Committee determines, in
the exercise of its sole discretion and in lieu of such assumption or
substitution, to shorten the Exercise Period then in progress by setting a new
Exercise Date (the "New Exercise Date"). If the Committee shortens the Exercise
Period then in progress in lieu of assumption or substitution in the event of a
Sale Transaction, the Committee shall notify each Participant in writing, at
least ten (10) days prior to the New Exercise Date, that the exercise date for
such Participant's option has been changed to the New Exercise Date and that
such Participant's option will be exercised automatically on the New Exercise
Date, unless prior to such date the Participant has withdrawn from the Plan as
provided in Section 11. For purposes of this Section 17(b), an option granted
under the Plan shall be deemed to have been assumed if, following the Sale
Transaction, the option confers the right to purchase, for each share of option
stock subject to the option immediately prior to the Sale Transaction, the
consideration (whether stock, cash or other securities or property) received in
the Sale Transaction by holders of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock
held on the effective date of the Sale Transaction (and if such holders were
offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the
holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock); PROVIDED, that
if the consideration received in the Sale Transaction was not solely common
stock of the successor corporation or its parent (as defined in Section 424(e)
of the Code), the Committee may, with the consent of the successor corporation
and the Participant, provide for the consideration to be received upon exercise
of the option to be solely common stock of the successor corporation or its
parent equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by the
holders of Common Stock in the Sale Transaction.

         (c) In all cases, the Committee shall have sole discretion to exercise
any of the powers and authority provided under this Section 17, and the
Committee's actions hereunder shall be final and binding on all Participants. No
fractional shares of stock shall be issued under the Plan pursuant to any
adjustment authorized under the provisions of this Section 17.

      18. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN. The Board or the Committee may at any time, or
from time to time, amend the Plan in any respect; PROVIDED, that (i) no such
amendment may make any change in any option theretofore granted which adversely
affects the rights of any Participant and (ii) the Plan may not be amended in
any way that will cause rights issued under the Plan to fail to meet the
requirements for employee stock purchase plans as defined in Section 423 of the
Code or any successor thereto. To the extent necessary to comply with Rule 16b-3
under the Exchange Act, Section 423 of the Code, or any other applicable law or
regulation), the Company shall obtain shareholder approval of any such
amendment.

      19. TERMINATION OF THE PLAN.

      The Plan and all rights of Employees hereunder shall terminate on the
earliest of:

         (a) the Exercise Date that Participants become entitled to purchase a
number of shares greater than the number of reserved shares remaining available
for purchase under the Plan;

         (b) such date as is determined by the Board in its discretion; or

         (c) the last Exercise Date immediately preceding the tenth (10th)
anniversary of the Plan's effective date.

      In the event that the Plan terminates under circumstances described in
Section 19(a) above, reserved shares remaining as of the termination date shall
be sold to Participants on a PRO RATA basis.

      20. NOTICES. All notices or other communications by a Participant to the
Company under or in connection with the Plan shall be deemed to have been duly
given when received in the form specified by the Company at the location, or by
the person, designated by the Company for the receipt thereof.

      21. EFFECTIVE DATE. Subject to adoption of the Plan by the Board, the Plan
shall become effective on the First Exercise Date. The Board shall submit the
Plan to the shareholders of the Company for approval within twelve months after
the date the Plan is adopted by the Board. If such shareholder approval is not
obtained, the Plan and all rights of Participants under the Plan shall be null
and void and shall have no effect.

      22. CONDITIONS UPON ISSUANCE OF SHARES.

         (a) The Plan, the grant and exercise of options to purchase shares
under the Plan, and the Company's obligation to sell and deliver shares upon the
exercise of options to purchase shares shall be subject to compliance with all
applicable federal, state and foreign laws, rules and regulations and the
requirements of any stock exchange on which the shares may then be listed.

         (b) The Company may make such provisions as it deems appropriate for
withholding by the Company pursuant to federal or state tax laws of such amounts
as the Company determines it is required to withhold in connection with the
purchase or sale by a Participant of any Common Stock acquired pursuant to the
Plan. The Company may require a Participant to satisfy any relevant tax
requirements before authorizing any issuance of Common Stock to such
Participant.

      23. EXPENSES OF THE PLAN. All costs and expenses incurred in administering
the Plan shall be paid by the Company, except that any stamp duties or transfer
taxes applicable to participation in the Plan may be charged to the account of
such Participant by the Company.

      24. NO EMPLOYMENT RIGHTS. The Plan does not, directly or indirectly,
create any right for the benefit of any employee or class of employees to
purchase any shares under the Plan, or


                                       10

<PAGE>

create in any employee or class of employees any right with respect to
continuation of employment by the Company, and it shall not be deemed to
interfere in any way with the Company's right to terminate, or otherwise modify,
an employee's employment at any time.

      25. APPLICABLE LAW. The laws of the State of Florida shall govern all
matter relating to this Plan except to the extent (if any) superseded by the
laws of the United States.

      26. ADDITIONAL RESTRICTIONS OF RULE 16B-3. The terms and conditions of
options granted hereunder to, and the purchase of shares by, persons subject to
Section 16 of the Exchange Act shall comply with the applicable provisions of
Rule 16b-3. This Plan shall be deemed to contain, and such options shall
contain, and the shares issued upon exercise thereof shall be subject to, such
additional conditions and restrictions as may be required by Rule 16b-3 to
qualify for the maximum exemption from Section 16 of the Exchange Act with
respect to Plan transactions.
