                     INSPIRE INSURANCE SOLUTIONS, INC.
            NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     General -- INSpire Insurance Solutions, Inc. ("INSpire" or the
"Company") is a provider of policy and claims administration and
information technology outsourcing services to the property and casualty
("P&C") insurance industry. The Company also develops, markets, licenses
and supports computer software and related services to the P&C insurance
industry. The Company sells its products directly to the customer. The
majority of sales are in North America.  Prior to the initial public
offering of common stock on August 22, 1997, the Company was a wholly-owned
subsidiary of The Millers Mutual Fire Insurance Company ("Millers Mutual").

     Paragon Interface, Inc. Acquisition -- On April 20, 1998, the Company
acquired all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Paragon
Interface, Inc. ("Paragon") for an aggregate cash purchase price of
$4,250,000 and costs and expenses of approximately $100,000. This
acquisition was funded with cash generated from operating activities.

      This acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting and, accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to the
assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair market
values. As of the acquisition date, assets acquired and liabilities assumed
were as follows:

     Purchase price. . . . . . . . . . . . .  $ 4,350,000
     Fair values of net assets acquired:

     Tangible assets . . . . . . . . . . . .      603,861
     Liabilities assumed . . . . . . . . . .   (1,487,122)
                                              -----------
                                                  926,739
                                              -----------
     Goodwill. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .  $ 3,423,261
                                              ===========

The amount assigned to in-process research and development was charged
against operating results at the time of acquisition. Paragon was merged
with and into the Company on May 1, 1998.

     Unaudited Interim Condensed Financial Statements -- The accompanying
unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation
S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial
position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented
have been included. Results of operations for the periods presented herein
are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for any subsequent
quarter or the year ending December 31, 1998. The independent accountants'
review report of Deloitte & Touche LLP is included in Part I, Item 1 of
this report.

      The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto for the year
ended December 31, 1997 included in the Company's Form 10-K (File No.000-
23005).


     Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the
Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and regulations.

     Reclassifications - Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified
to conform to current year presentation.

     Net income (loss) per share - Net income (loss) per share (basic) of
the Company is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted
average number of shares outstanding. The weighted average number of shares
(basic) was 12,172,663 and 7,000,000 for the three months ended June 30,
1998 and 1997, respectively, and 11,248,595 and 7,000,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The weighted average
number of shares (diluted) was 13,468,877 and 7,749,221 for the three
months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, and 12,601,197 and
7,000,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     The Company provides outsourcing services and software and software
services to Millers Mutual, a shareholder of the Company, and The Millers
Casualty Insurance Company ("Millers Casualty"), an indirect 99.4%
subsidiary of Millers Mutual, under the terms of various agreements. For
the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, under such agreements, the
Company earned total fees of approximately $11,584,000 and $6,320,000,
respectively.

      Prior to January 1, 1998, pursuant to various agreements, Millers
Mutual provided management and administration services to the Company. For
the six months ended June 30, 1997, total fees paid by the Company to
Millers Mutual were approximately $1,200,000. Effective January 1, 1998,
the Company and Millers Mutual entered into a new agreement whereby the
Company provides benefits administration services to Millers Mutual and
Millers Casualty for a monthly fee of $15,000. As of June 30, 1998, total
fees earned under this agreement were $90,000.

      During each of the six month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,
the Company incurred rental expense of approximately $158,000 under a month-
to-month lease agreement with Millers Mutual.

     There was a net receivable due from Millers Mutual of approximately
$2,424,000 at June 30, 1998 and $1,301,000 at December 31, 1997.

3. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     In February 1997, the Philadelphia Contributionship for the Insurance
of Houses from Loss by Fire ("PCIHLF") filed a lawsuit (Civil Action No. 97-
CV-1262) against Strategic Data Systems, Inc. ("SDS"), which was acquired
by the Company in March 1997 and merged into the Company in July 1998, in
the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
This suit alleged that certain systems that SDS sold to PCIHLF in 1995 did
not meet PCIHLF's specifications. PCIHLF claimed damages in excess of
$1,300,000. During the three months ended June 30, 1998, the Company and
PCIHLF settled this suit under terms having no material adverse effect on
the Company.

     The Company is not a party to any other legal proceedings that the
Company believes could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, financial condition or operating results.

4. RESTATEMENT

     Subsequent to the issuance of INSpire's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
for the quarterly period ended June 30, 1998, the Company's management
revised the amount of the purchase price which was allocated to in-process
research and development in accounting for the acquisition of Paragon in
April 1998.  The revised allocation is based upon methods prescribed in a letter
from the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") sent to the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants in September 1998.  The letter sets
forth the SEC's views regarding the valuation methodology to be used in
allocating a portion of the purchase price to acquired in-process research and
development at the date of acquisition.

     The revised valuation is based on management's estimates of the net
cash flows associated with expected operations of Paragon and gives
explicit consideration to the SEC's views on acquired in-process research
and development as set forth in its September 1998 letter to the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants.

     As a result of the revised allocation, the Company's condensed financial
statements as of and for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998,
have been restated from amounts previously reported to reduce the amounts of
the acquired in-process research and development expensed by $1.5 million and
to increase intangible assets by $1.5 million. The change had no impact on the
net cash flows provided by operations.

     A summary of the significant effects of the restatement is as follows:


                                                 As of June 30, 1998

5. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

     On July 21, 1998, the Board of Directors approved a three-for-two
stock split, to be effected in the form of a stock dividend, payable on
August 17, 1998 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on
July 31, 1998. Due to this stock dividend, a transfer of approximately
$61,000 from retained earnings to common stock will be reflected in the
July 31, 1998 balance sheet. Pro forma net income (loss) per share (basic),
giving retroactive effect to this stock dividend, would have been $.14 and
$.06 for the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively,  and
$.29 and ($.27) for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,
respectively. Proforma net income (loss) per share (diluted), giving
retroactive effect to this stock dividend, would have been $.13 and $.05
for  the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, and $.26
and ($.27) for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.






INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT

Board of Directors and Shareholders
INSpire Insurance Solutions, Inc
Fort Worth, Texas

     We have reviewed the accompanying condensed balance sheet of INSpire
Insurance Solutions, Inc. (the "Company") as of June 30, 1998, and the
related condensed statements of operations for the three months ended June
30, 1998 and 1997 and the six months ended June 30, 1998 and condensed
statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 1998. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

     We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by
the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical
procedures to financial data and of making inquiries of persons responsible
for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope
than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding
the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express
such an opinion.

     Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications
that should be made to such condensed financial statements for them to be
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

     As discussed in Note 4, the accompanying condensed financial
statements as of June 30, 1998 and for the three and six months then
ended have been restated.

     We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards, the balance sheet of INSpire Insurance Solutions,
Inc.as of December 31, 1997 and June 30, 1997 (not presented herein), and
the related statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows
for the year ended December 31, 1997 (not presented herein) and the six
months ended June 30, 1997; and in our reports dated January 19, 1998 and
July 18, 1997, respectively, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those
financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the
accompanying condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 1997 and the
accompanying condensed statements of operations and cash flows for the six
months ended June 30, 1997 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in
relation to the financial statements from which they have been derived.

ITEM 2.
                  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
               FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

     PARAGON INTERFACE, INC. ACQUISITION - On April 20, 1998, the Company
acquired (the "Paragon Acquisition") all of the outstanding shares of
common stock of Paragon Interface, Inc. ("Paragon") for $4.25 million and
costs and expenses of approximately $100,000.  This acquisition was
accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, the
purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities
assumed based on their relative fair market value.

     Subsequent to the issuance of INSpire's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
for the quarterly period ended June 30, 1998, the Company's management
revised the amount of the purchase price which was allocated to in-process
research and development in accounting for the acquisition of Paragon
Interface, Inc. ("Paragon") in April 1998.  The revised allocation is based
upon methods prescribed in a letter from the Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC") sent to the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants in
September 1998. The letter sets forth the SEC's views regarding the valuation
methodology to be used in allocating a portion of the purchase price to
acquired in-process research and development at the date of acquisition. The
significant effects of the restatement have been reflected herein.

     STOCK SPLIT - On July 21, 1998, the Board of Directors approved a
three-for-two stock split, to be effected in the form of a stock dividend,
payable on August 17, 1998 to shareholders of record as of the close of
business on July 31, 1998.  As of August 10, 1998, there were 12,214,306
outstanding shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of the
Company (the "Common Stock").  After giving effect to this stock dividend,
there would be 18,321,459 outstanding shares of Common Stock.  Due to this
stock dividend, a transfer of approximately $61,000 from retained earnings
to common stock will be reflected in the July 31, 1998 balance sheet. Pro
forma net income (loss) per share (basic), giving retroactive effect to
this stock dividend, would have been $.14 and $.06 for the three
months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, and $.29 and ($.27) for
the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  Pro forma net
income (loss) per share (diluted), giving retroactive effect to this stock
dividend, would have been $.13 and $.05 for the three months ended June 30,
1998 and 1997, respectively, and $.26 and ($.27) for the six months ended
June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 AND 1997

     REVENUES. Total revenues were $21.0 million for the three months ended
June 30, 1998 compared to $15.1 million for the three months ended June 30,
1997, an increase of $5.9 million or 39%.  Outsourcing services revenues
were $11.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998 compared to
$7.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 1997, an increase of $3.7
million or 48%.  The growth in outsourcing services revenues is due
primarily to: (i) the Company performing outsourcing services under eight
significant outsourcing contracts that it entered into after June 30, 1997
and (ii) an increase in outsourcing services after June 30, 1997 provided
under two significant claims administration agreements.  Software and
software services revenues were $8.9 million for the three months ended
June 30, 1998 compared to $6.5 million for the three months ended June 30,
1997, an increase of  $2.4 million or 37%.  The growth in software and
software services revenues during the three months ended June 30, 1998 is
primarily attributable to increased license fees and consulting services
revenues resulting from an increase of in-process installations of the
Windows into Property and Casualty System ("WPC") and increases in license
fees and consulting rates.  This growth was slightly offset by the sale of
a subsidiary, which had software and software services revenues of
approximately $1.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 1997, in
September 1997.

     COST OF REVENUES.  Cost of revenues, which is comprised mainly of
personnel costs, was $11.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998
compared to $9.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 1997, an
increase of $1.9 million or 20%.  Cost of outsourcing services was $5.9
million for the three months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $5.2 million
for the three months ended June 30, 1997, an increase of $700,000 or 13%.
This increase is primarily attributable to costs associated with the
performance of the ten significant outsourcing contracts described above.
Cost of outsourcing services as a percentage of outsourcing services
revenues decreased to 51% for the three months ended June 30, 1998 from 68%
for the three months ended June 30, 1997. This decrease is a result of
economies of scale associated with spreading certain fixed costs over a
larger revenue base and lower personnel costs as a percentage of revenues.
Cost of software and software services was $4.8 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $3.6 million for the three months
ended June 30, 1997, an increase of $1.2 million or 33%.  This increase is
primarily attributable to the costs associated with the increased
consulting services related to the WPC installations described above.  Cost
of software and software services as a percentage of software and software
services revenues decreased to 54% for the three months ended June 30, 1998
from 56% for the three months ended June 30, 1997.  This decrease is a
result of economies of scale associated with spreading certain fixed costs
over a larger revenue base.

     SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. Selling, general and
administrative expenses, including management fees paid to shareholder,
were $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $2.3
million for the three months ended June 30, 1997, an increase of $1.5
million or 65%. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a
percentage of total revenues increased to 18% for the three months ended
June 30, 1998 from 15% for the three months ended June 30, 1997. This
increase is primarily due to: (i) increased marketing costs and (ii)
additional executive management, staffing, office space and computer
equipment and software required to expand the infrastructure to support the
Company's growth.

     RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expense was
$676,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $554,000 for
the three months ended June 30, 1997, an increase of $122,000 or 22%. This
increase is due to the Company's increased focus on the development of new
software products and the expansion of the functionality of current
software products.  This expense is comprised primarily of personnel,
equipment and occupancy costs related to software development.  Research
and development expense for the three months ended June 30, 1998 is net of
capitalized software development costs of $486,000.  There were no
capitalized software development costs during the three months ended June
30, 1997.

     DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and amortization expense
was $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $1.2
million for the three months ended June 30, 1997, an increase of
approximately $200,000 or 17%.  This increase is primarily attributable to:
(i) amortization of goodwill and capitalized software recorded in
connection with the Paragon Acquisition and (ii) acquisitions of property
and equipment of $3.9 million in the aggregate since June 30, 1997 as a
result of the expansion in infrastructure to support the Company's growth.

     NONRECURRING OPERATING EXPENSES. In the purchase price allocation of
the Paragon Acquisition, $500,000 was assigned to in-process research and
development. This amount, which is not deductible for tax purposes, was
charged to operations in April 1998. In addition, $884,000 was charged to
operations as deferred compensation associated with stock options granted
to executive officers in May 1997.

     OTHER INCOME.  Other income (expense) increase to $859,000 for the
three months ended June 30, 1998 from $(108,000) for the three months ended
June 30, 1997.  This increase is primarily attributable to an increase of
$819,000 in interest income due to an increase in short-term investments
purchased with net proceeds from the Company's initial public offering in
August 1997 and follow-on public offering in March 1998.  During the three
months ended June 30, 1997, the Company did not have significant
investments that earned interest income.

     NET INCOME.  Net income was $2.6 million, or $.19 per diluted share
($.21 per basic share), for the three months ended June 30, 1998, compared
to net income of $639,000, or $.08 per diluted share ($.09 per basic
share), for the three months ended June 30, 1997.  Excluding the impact on
net income resulting from the $500,000 write-off of in-process research and
development associated with the Paragon Acquisition, restated net income
would have been $3.1 million, or $.23 per diluted share ($.25 per basic
share), for the three months ended June 30, 1998. Excluding the impact on
net income resulting from the charge to operation of $884,000 (or $566,000,
net of tax) of deferred compensation associated with stock options granted
to executive officers, net income would have been $1.2 million, or $.16 per
diluted share ($.17 per basic share), for the three months ended June 30,
1997.


COMPARISON OF THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 AND 1997

     REVENUES. Total revenues were $39.3 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1998 compared to $23.3 million for the six months ended June 30,
1997, an increase of $16.0 million or 69%.  Outsourcing services revenues
were $21.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $14.4
million for the six months ended June 30, 1997, an increase of $7.1 million
or 49%.  The growth in outsourcing services revenues is due primarily to:
(i) the Company performing outsourcing services under eight significant
outsourcing contracts entered into after June 30, 1997 and (ii) an increase
in outsourcing services after June 30, 1997 provided under two other
significant claims administration agreements.  Software and software
services revenues were $16.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998
compared to $7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997, an
increase of  $8.9 million or 117%.  The growth in software and software
services revenues during the six months ended June 30, 1998 is primarily
attributable to:  (i) the acquisition of Strategic Data Systems, Inc.
("SDS") on March 12, 1997 by the Company (the "SDS Acquisition") and (ii)
is primarily attributable to increased license fees and consulting services
revenues resulting from an increase of in-process installations of WPC and
increases in license fees and consulting rates.  This growth was slightly
offset by the sale of a subsidiary, which had software and software
services revenues of approximately $1.4 million during the six months ended
June 30, 1997, in September 1997.

     COST OF REVENUES.  Cost of revenues, which is comprised mainly of
personnel costs, was $21.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998
compared to $15.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997, an
increase of $6.1 million or 40%.  Cost of outsourcing services was $11.5
million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $10.1 million
for the six months ended June 30, 1997, an increase of $1.4 million or 14%.
This increase is primarily attributable to the increased costs associated
with the performance of the ten significant outsourcing contracts described
above. Cost of outsourcing services as a percentage of outsourcing services
revenues decreased to 53% for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from 70%
for the six months ended June 30, 1997. This decrease is a result of
economies of scale associated with spreading certain fixed costs over a
larger revenue base and lower personnel costs as a percentage of revenues.
Cost of software and software services was $8.9 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1998 compared to $4.4 million for the six months ended June
30, 1997, an increase of $4.5 million or 102%.  This increase is primarily
attributable to the additional cost of revenues associated with the SDS
Acquisition and the costs associated with the increased consulting services
related to the WPC installations described above.  Cost of software and
software services as a percentage of software and software services
revenues decreased to 54% for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from 58%
for the six months ended June 30, 1997.  This decrease is a result of
economies of scale associated with spreading certain fixed costs over a
larger revenue base.

     SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. Selling, general and
administrative expenses, including management fees paid to shareholder,
were $7.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $3.2
million for the six months ended June 30, 1997, an increase of $3.9 million
or 122%. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of
total revenues increased to 18% for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from
14% for the six months ended June 30, 1997. This increase is primarily due
to: (i) increased marketing costs (ii) the SDS Acquisition and (iii)
additional executive management, staffing, office space and computer
equipment and software required to expand the infrastructure to support the
Company's growth.

     RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expense was $1.1
million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $680,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 1997, an increase of $420,000 or 62%. This
increase is due to the Company not incurring any significant research and
development expenses prior to the SDS Acquisition and the Company's
increased focus on the development of new software products and the
expansion of the functionality of current software products.  This expense
is comprised primarily of personnel, equipment and occupancy costs related
to software development.  Research and development expense for the six
months ended June 30, 1998 is net of capitalized software development costs
of $964,000.  There were no capitalized software development costs during
the six months ended June 30, 1997.

     DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and amortization expense
was $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $1.7
million for the six months ended June 30, 1997, an increase of
approximately $900,000 or 53%. This increase is primarily attributable to:
(i) amortization of goodwill and capitalized software recorded in
connection with the SDS Acquisition and the Paragon Acquisition and (ii)
acquisitions of property and equipment of $4.3 million in the aggregate
since June 30, 1997 as a result of the expansion in infrastructure to
support the Company's growth.

     NONRECURRING OPERATING EXPENSES. In the purchase price allocation of
the SDS Acquisition, $3.0 million was assigned to in-process research and
development. This amount, which is not deductible for tax purposes, was
charged to operations in March 1997. In addition, $3.9 million was charged
to operations as deferred compensation associated with stock options
granted to executive officers during the six months ended June 30, 1997.
In the purchase price allocation of the Paragon Acquisition, $500,000 was
assigned to in-process research and development. This amount was charged to
operations in April 1998.

     OTHER INCOME.  Other income (expense) increased to $1.3 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $(159,000) for the six months ended
June 30, 1997.  This increase is primarily attributable to an increase of
$1.2 million in interest income due to an increase in short-term
investments purchased with net proceeds from the Company's initial public
offering in August 1997 and follow-on public offering in March 1998.
During the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Company did not have
significant investments that earned interest income.

     NET INCOME.  Net income was $4.9 million, or $.39 per diluted share
($.43 per basic share), for the six months ended June 30, 1998, compared to
a net loss of $2.9 million, or $.41 per diluted share ($.41 per basic
share), for the six months ended June 30, 1997.  Excluding the impact on
net income resulting from the $500,000 write-off of in-process research and
development associated with the Paragon Acquisition, restated net income
would have been $5.4 million, or $.43 per diluted share ($.48 per basic
share), for the six months ended June 30, 1998.  Excluding the impact on
the net loss resulting from the charge to operations of $3.9 million of
deferred compensation associated with stock options granted to executive
officers and the write-off of in-process research and development of $3.0
million (or $4.5 million, net of tax), net income would have been $1.6
million, or $.21 per diluted share ($.23 per basic share), for the six
months ended June 30, 1997.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Cash and cash equivalents were $66.1 million as of June 30, 1998
compared to $28.0 million as of  December 31, 1997, an increase of $38.1
million. Net cash provided by operating activities was $4.9 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to net cash provided by operating
activities of $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997. Net cash
used in investing activities was $19.1 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1998, which is primarily attributable to: (i) the purchase of
$11.3 million in short-term investments, (ii) the purchase of $2.6 million
in property and equipment and (iii) the Paragon Acquisition.  Net cash used
in investing activities was $18.0 million for the six months ended June 30,
1997, which is primarily attributable to the SDS Acquisition.  Net cash
provided by financing activities was $52.3 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1998, which is primarily attributable to the follow-on public
offering on March 27, 1998, compared to net cash provided by financing
activities of $16.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997, which
is primarily due to capital contributions from a shareholder and borrowings
of $18.1 million to fund the SDS Acquisition.

     The Company entered into a bank credit facility (the "NationsBank
Facility") with Nationsbank of Texas, N.A. ("NationsBank") on March 12,
1997, pursuant to which the Company borrowed $5.0 million under a term
credit facility and $2.5 million under a $4.0 million revolving credit
facility, subject to a borrowing base formula, to finance in part the SDS
Acquisition.  The Company must pay a commitment fee of 0.25% per annum on
the average daily unused portion of the revolving credit facility.  In
addition, the NationsBank Facility contains certain restrictive covenants
that require the Company to meet certain requirements, such as maintaining
a minimum net worth, and that, without the prior written consent of
NationsBank, prohibit the Company from incurring indebtedness other than
pursuant to the NationsBank Facility or declaring or paying dividends or
other distributions.  The revolving credit facility matures March 12, 1999.
Borrowings under the NationsBank Facility are secured by all accounts
receivable, inventory, equipment, servicing contract rights, and other
personal property of the Company.  As of June 30, 1998, there are no
outstanding borrowings under the NationsBank Facility and the Company is in
compliance with its covenants under the NationsBank Facility.

     The Company believes that cash generated from operations and its net
proceeds from the initial public offering and follow-on public offering
will satisfy the Company's anticipated working capital requirements for at
least one year. The Company, however, may require substantial additional
funds for potential acquisitions and expansion. In the normal course of
business, the Company evaluates acquisitions of businesses, products and
technologies that complement the Company's business.

YEAR 2000 ISSUES

     The Company is in the process of communicating with and distributing
questionnaires to its significant suppliers and customers to determine the
extent to which interfaces with such entities are vulnerable to Year 2000
issues and the extent to which any products purchased by or from, or
internal systems of, such entities are vulnerable to Year 2000 issues.  The
Company presently believes that the Year 2000 issues will not require the
Company to incur any material costs or pose significant operational
problems for the Company directly or as a result of any Year 2000 issues of
suppliers or customers.  The Company believes that Year 2000 issues of its
customers or potential customers provide opportunities to the Company to
market its products and services as a solution to such Year 2000 issues.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In October 1997, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee of the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of
Position No. 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition ("SOP 97-2").  SOP 97-2 is
effective for transactions entered into in fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997.  The adoption of SOP 97-2 did not have a material effect
on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
