for the interim periods covered and of the financial position of Network
Solutions at the date of the interim balance sheet. Certain information and
footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, Network
Solutions believes that the disclosures are adequate for understanding the

necessarily indicative of the operating results for the entire year. These
interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with Network
Solutions' December 31, 1999 audited financial statements and notes thereto
included in Network Solutions' Form 10-K annual report for the year ended
December 31, 1999. Prior periods have been reclassified for comparative

NOTE 6 -- PROPOSED ACQUISITION OF NETWORK SOLUTIONS BY VERISIGN, INC.

  On March 7, 2000, VeriSign, Inc., the leading provider of Internet trust
services, and Network Solutions announced the signing of a definitive agreement
for VeriSign to acquire Network Solutions in an all-stock purchase transaction.
Under the agreement, VeriSign will issue 1.075 shares of VeriSign common stock
for each share of Network Solutions Common Stock. The transaction has been
approved by both companies' Boards of Directors and is subject to approval by
VeriSign and Network Solutions shareholders. After the merger, VeriSign
stockholders will own approximately 60% of the combined company while Network
Solutions shareholders will own approximately 40% of the combined company.

  On May 9, 2000, VeriSign and Network Solutions announced that the
companies' Joint Proxy Statement relating to the proposed merger of the two
companies had been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission
and filed electronically. In addition, VeriSign and Network Solutions also
announced that on May 5, 2000, the Department of Justice granted early
termination of the waiting periods for the antitrust review of the proposed
merger under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act.
<PAGE>

  Proxy materials were mailed to shareholders on May 8, 2000. Both VeriSign
and Network Solutions will hold shareholders meetings on June 8, 2000 for
shareholders of record on May 3, 2000 to vote on the merger. If shareholder
approval is obtained, the merger is expected to close shortly thereafter.

NOTE 7-- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

  On March 15, 2000, a group of eight plaintiffs filed suit against the U.S.
Department of Commerce, the National Science Foundation and Network Solutions in
the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. The
case, entitled William Hoefer et al. v. U.S. Department of Commerce, et al.,
Civil Action No. 000918-VRW, challenges the lawfulness of the registration fees
that we were authorized to charge for domain name registrations from September
1995 to November 1999. The suit purports to be brought on behalf of all domain
name registrants who paid registration fees during that period and seeks
approximately $1.7 billion in damages. All of the defendants have been served
with the complaint, and have filed motions to transfer the suit to the Federal
District Court in the District of Columbia. The same attorney who unsuccessfully
challenged us in a similar action known as Thomas, et al. v. Network Solutions,
et al., filed this new action on behalf of eight former and current domain name
registrants. The suit contains eight causes of action against the defendants
based on alleged violations of Art. I, Section 8 and the Fifth Amendment of the
U.S. Constitution, the Independent Offices Appropriations Act (31 U.S.C. Section
9701), the Administrative Procedure Act, the Sherman Act, and the California
Unfair Competition Act, Section 17200. Network Solutions believes that the
complaint lacks merit and intends to vigorously defend itself as it did in
response to the Thomas case.
