                              VIGNETTE CORPORATION

              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)
                                 MARCH 31, 2000

NOTE 1 -- General and Basis of Financial Statements

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Vignette Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries
(collectively, the "Company" or "Vignette"). All material intercompany accounts
and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The unaudited financial statements included herein reflect all adjustments,
consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of
management are necessary to fairly state the Company's financial position,
results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.  These financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto filed with the United States Securities
Exchange Commission in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 1999. The results of operations for the three-month periods
ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 are not necessarily indicative of results that may
be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year.

NOTE 2 -- NET LOSS PER SHARE

Basic net loss per share is based on the weighted effect of all common shares
issued and outstanding and is calculated by dividing net loss available to
common stockholders by the weighted average shares outstanding during the
period.  Diluted net loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss available
to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares used in
the basic net loss per share calculation plus the number of common shares that
would be issued assuming conversion of all potentially dilutive common shares
outstanding.  Diluted net loss per share has not been presented as the effect of
the assumed exercise of stock options, warrants and contingently issued shares
is antidilutive due to the Company's net loss for the indicated period.

The Company's historical capital structure is not indicative of its prospective
structure due to the automatic conversion of all shares of convertible preferred
stock and redeemable convertible preferred stock into common stock concurrent
with the closing of the Company's initial public offering occurring in February
1999. Accordingly, a pro forma calculation assuming the conversion of all
outstanding shares as of March 31, 2000 and 1999 of convertible preferred stock
and redeemable convertible preferred stock into common stock upon the Company's
initial public offering using the if-converted method from their respective
dates of issuance is presented below.

NOTE 3 -- COMPREHENSIVE LOSS

The Company's comprehensive loss is comprised of net loss, foreign currency
translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on investments held as
available-for-sale investments.  Total comprehensive loss was $83.5 million and
$7.9 million for the three month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.


NOTE 4 -- BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2000, Vignette acquired all of the
outstanding stock and assumed all outstanding stock options of two individual
companies: Engine 5, Ltd. and DataSage, Inc.  Both acquisitions were accounted
for as business purchase combinations.

Engine 5.   Effective January 18, 2000, the Company acquired Engine 5, Ltd.
("Engine 5"), a developer of enterprise-wide Java server technology, in exchange
for 248,012 shares of Vignette common stock and approximately $4.9 million in
cash.  Of the common stock initially exchanged, approximately 143,397 shares
related to the assumption of Engine 5's existing pre-acquisition stock option
grants.  The total cost of the acquisition, including transaction costs, was
approximately $20.0 million.  The acquired net assets were recorded at their
estimated fair values at the effective date of acquisition.  The following table
present the allocation of the purchase price (in thousands):

<TABLE>
<S>                                                                    <C>

</TABLE>

                                       6
<PAGE>

Additionally, contingent consideration of approximately 88,461 shares of
Vignette common stock and approximately $4.3 million will be based upon defined
future employment requirements earned through the first quarter of fiscal year
2002.  The contingent consideration related to the Engine 5 acquisition is not
included in the total purchase price, above, but will be recorded when the
future employment requirements have been met.

The amounts allocated to acquired technology and workforce are being amortized
over the asset's estimated useful life which is equivalent to a two-year period.
Similarly, the excess of cost over fair value of net assets acquired is being
amortized over the asset's estimated useful life which is equivalent to a two-
year period.

DataSage.  Effective February 15, 2000, the Company acquired all of the
outstanding stock and assumed all outstanding stock options of DataSage, Inc.
("DataSage"), a leading provider of e-Marketing and personalization applications
that help organizations create a comprehensive single enterprise-wide view of
their customers, in exchange for 9,479,229 shares of Vignette common stock.  The
total cost of the acquisition, including transaction costs, was approximately
$586.6 million.  The acquired net assets were recorded at their estimated fair
values at the effective date of acquisition.  The following table presents the
allocation of the purchase price (in thousands):

</TABLE>

The amounts allocated to acquired technology, workforce and trademark are being
amortized over the assets' estimated useful life which is equivalent to a
three-year period. Similarly, the excess of cost over fair value of net assets
acquired is being amortized over the asset's estimated useful life which is
equivalent to a three-year period.

Because these two respective acquisitions were accounted for as purchases, the
results of operations will be included with those of the Company for periods
subsequent to their respective acquisition dates.  The following presents the
unaudited pro forma combined results of operations of Vignette with Engine 5 and
DataSage for the three month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, after giving
effect to certain pro forma adjustments.  These pro forma amounts are not
necessarily indicative of what the actual consolidated results of operations
might have been if the acquisition had been effective on January 1, 1999 and

In connection with our respective acquisitions of Engine 5 and DataSage, we
incurred one-time acquisition costs and integration-related charges, which
include costs associated with product integration, cross training, and other
merger-related costs. Additionally, a portion of the DataSage purchase price was
allocated to in-process research and development based upon an independent third
party appraisal and expensed upon the consummation of the transaction.  These
related charges totaled $56.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2000.

OVERVIEW

We are a leading global provider of e-Business application software products and
services. Our e-Business solutions are designed to enable businesses to build
successful and sustainable online businesses. Our e-Business solutions allow
both traditional brick-and-mortar and startup dot-com businesses to create and
manage Internet business channels that are designed to attract, engage and
retain their customers, partners, and suppliers online. Using our solutions, our
clients build e-Business applications which are focused on personalized and mass
customized multiple touchpoints and communication channels. We were founded in
December 1995. To date, we have developed and released several versions of our
StoryServer product and have sold our products and services to 665 clients. We
market and sell our products worldwide primarily through our direct sales force
but also market through third party providers.

We derive our revenue from the sale of software product licenses and from
professional consulting, maintenance and support services. Product license
revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, the
product has been delivered, we have no remaining significant obligations with
regard to implementation, the license fee is fixed or determinable and
collection of the fee is probable. Services revenue consists of fees from
professional services and from maintenance and telephone support. Professional
services include integration of software, application development, training and
software installation. We bill professional services fees either on a time-and-
materials or on a fixed-price basis. We recognize professional services fees
billed on a time-and-materials basis as the services are performed. We recognize
professional services fees on fixed-price service arrangements on the completion
of specific contractual milestone events, or based on an estimated percentage of
completion as work progresses. We recognize estimated losses on fixed-priced
service arrangements, if any, when it becomes apparent a loss is to be incurred.
Our clients typically purchase maintenance agreements annually, and we price
maintenance agreements based on a percentage of our current product list price.
We price telephone support based on differing levels of support. Clients
purchasing maintenance agreements receive unspecified product upgrades and
electronic, Web-based technical support, while purchasers of support contracts
receive additional telephone support. We recognize revenue from maintenance and
support agreements ratably over the term of the agreement, typically one year.
We record cash receipts from clients and billed amounts due from clients in
excess of revenue recognized as deferred revenue. The timing and amount of cash
receipts from clients can vary significantly depending on specific contract
terms and can therefore have a significant impact on the amount of deferred
revenue in any given period.

Cost of revenue consists of costs to manufacture, package and distribute our
products and related documentation, as well as personnel and other expenses
related to providing professional services. Since our inception, we have
incurred substantial costs to develop our technology and products, to recruit
and train personnel for our engineering, sales and marketing and professional
services departments, and to establish an administrative organization. As a
result, we have incurred significant losses since inception and, as of March 31,
2000, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $163.3 million. We believe
our success depends on further increasing our client base and on growth in the
emerging e-Business solutions market. Accordingly, we intend to continue to
invest heavily in sales, marketing, professional services, research and
development and in our operational and financial systems. Furthermore, we expect
to continue to incur substantial operating losses, excluding amortization of
intangibles and stock-based compensation, at least through the third quarter of
2000, and our expected increase in operating expenses will require significant
increases in revenues before we become profitable.

                                       9
<PAGE>

We had 1095 full-time employees at March 31, 2000, up from 350 March 31, 1999.
This rapid growth places a significant demand on our management and operational
resources. In order to manage growth effectively, we must implement and improve
our operational systems, procedures and controls on a timely basis. In addition,
we expect that future expansion will continue to challenge our ability to hire,
train, motivate, and manage our employees.  Competition is intense for highly
qualified technical, sales and marketing and management personnel. If our total
revenue does not increase relative to our operating expenses, our management
systems do not expand to meet increasing demands, we fail to attract, assimilate
and retain qualified personnel, or our management otherwise fails to manage our
expansion effectively, there would be a material adverse effect on our business,
operating results and financial condition.

Effective January 18, 2000, we acquired Engine 5, Ltd. ("Engine 5"), a developer
of enterprise-wide Java server technology, in exchange for 248,012 shares of
Vignette common stock and approximately $4.9 million in cash.  Of the common
stock initially exchanged, approximately 143,397 shares related to the
assumption of Engine 5's existing pre-acquisition stock option grants.  The
total cost of the acquisition, including transaction costs, was approximately
$20.0 million.  The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase business
combination.  Accordingly, the acquired net liabilities were recorded at their
estimated fair values at the effective date of the acquisition and the results
of operations of Engine 5 will be included with those of the Company for the
periods subsequent to the date of the acquisition.

Additionally, contingent consideration of approximately 88,461 shares of
Vignette common stock and approximately $4.3 million will be based upon defined
future employment requirements earned through the first quarter of fiscal year
2002.  The contingent consideration related to the Engine 5 acquisition is not
included in the total purchase price, above, but will be recorded when the
future employment requirements have been met.

Effective February 15, 2000, we acquired all of the outstanding stock and
assumed all outstanding stock options of DataSage, Inc. ("DataSage"), a leading
provider of e-Marketing and personalization applications that help organizations
create a comprehensive single enterprise-wide view of their customers, in
exchange for 9,479,229 shares of Vignette common stock. The total cost of the
acquisition, including transaction costs, was approximately $586.6 million. The
acquisition was accounted for as a purchase business combination. Accordingly,
the acquired net assets were recorded at their estimated fair values at the
effective date of the acquisition and the results of operations of DataSage will
be included with those of the Company for the periods subsequent to the date of
the acquisition.

In connection with our respective acquisitions of Engine 5 and DataSage, we
incurred one-time acquisition costs and integration-related charges, which
include costs associated with product integration, cross training, and other
merger-related costs. Additionally, a portion of the DataSage purchase price was
allocated to in-process research and development based upon an independent third
party appraisal and expensed upon the consummation of the transaction.  These
related charges totaled $56.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2000.

</TABLE>

Revenue

Total revenue increased 505% to $55.2 million in the three months ended
March 31, 2000 from $9.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 1999. This
increase was attributable to an increase in our client base, which grew from 229
at the end of the first quarter of 1999 to 665 at the end of the first quarter
of 2000, an increase in the average deal size of new client orders and follow-on
orders from existing clients. Although our total revenue has increased in recent
periods, we cannot be certain that total revenue will grow in future periods or
that it will grow at similar rates as in the past.

Product License.  Product license revenue increased 531% to $29.2 million in the
three months ended March 31, 2000 from $4.6 million in the three months ended
March 31, 1999, representing 53% and 51% of total revenue, respectively. The
increase in product license revenue in absolute dollars was due to increases in
the number of clients and the average deal size of new client orders resulting
from growing market acceptance of our StoryServer product line over prior
periods as well as increase in follow-on orders from existing clients.

Services.  Services revenue increased 478% to $26.1 million in the three months
ended March 31, 2000 from $4.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 1999,
representing 47% and 49% of total revenue, respectively. Services revenue from
professional services fees continue to be the primary component of total
services revenue, representing 37% of total revenues in the three months ended
March 31, 2000 as compared to 39% in the three months March 31, 1999. The
increase in all types of services revenue was due primarily to an increase in
the number of clients and the sale of product licenses, which generally include
or lead to contracts to perform professional services and purchases of software
maintenance and technical support service agreements.

                                       11
<PAGE>

We believe that growth in our product license sales depends on our ability to
provide our clients with support, training, consulting and implementation
services and educating third-party resellers on how to implement our products.
As a result, we continued to expand our professional services organization
throughout 2000 and intend to continue expanding our professional services
organization for the foreseeable future.  We do not believe that services
revenue will continue to increase as a percentage of total revenue.

Cost of Revenue

Product License.  Product license costs consist of expenses we incur to
manufacture, package and distribute our products and related documentation and
costs of licensing third-party software incorporated into our products.  Product
license costs increased to $1.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2000
from $419,000 in the three months ended March 31, 1999, representing 5% and 9%
of product license revenue, respectively. The increase in absolute dollars for
the three month periods was principally a result of both product license sales
growth and royalties paid to third party vendors for technology embedded in our
product offerings. Product license costs decreased as a percentage of product
license revenue primarily because significant product license revenue growth
outpaced increases in product license costs in addition to a higher average
sales price in 2000 relative to 1999. We expect product license costs to
increase in the future in absolute dollar terms due to additional clients
licensing our products and the acquisition of OEM licenses to third-party
technology that we may choose to embed in our product offerings.

Services.  Services costs include salary expense and other related costs for our
professional service, maintenance and customer support staffs, as well as third-
party contractor expenses. Services costs increased to $19.7 million in the
three months ended March 31, 2000 from $4.5 million in the three months ended
March 31, 1999, representing 76% and 99% of services revenue, respectively. The
increase in absolute dollars resulted from rapidly expanding our services
organization. The overall improvement in services gross profit margin reflects
increased leverage from the productivity of support, training, consulting and
implementation activities. We expect services costs to increase in the future in
absolute dollars to the extent that services revenues increase. We expect
services costs as a percentage of services revenue to decrease over time.
Services costs as a percentage of services revenue can be expected to vary
significantly from period to period depending on the mix of services we provide,
whether such services are provided by us or third-party contractors, and overall
utilization rates.

Professional services-related costs increased to $18.8 million in the three
months ended March 31, 2000 from $4.1 million in the three months ended March
31, 1999, representing 91% and 114% of professional services-related revenue,
respectively. Maintenance and support-related costs increased to $867,000 in the
three months ended March 31, 2000 from $373,000 in the three months ended March
31, 1999, representing 16% and 41% of maintenance and support-related revenue,
respectively.

Operating Expenses

Research and Development.  Research and development expenses consist primarily
of personnel costs to support product development. Research and development
expenses increased to $7.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2000 from
$2.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 1999, representing 14% and 30%
of total revenue, respectively. The increase in absolute dollars was due to the
increase in engineering personnel and to the expansion of our product offerings.
The decrease in research and development as a percentage of total revenue
resulted primarily because significant revenue growth outpaced increases in
research and development expenditures. We believe that continued investment in
research and development is critical to maintaining a competitive advantage,
and, as a result, we expect research and development expenses to increase in
absolute dollars in future periods. Software development costs that were
eligible for capitalization in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold,
Leased, or Otherwise Marketed, were insignificant during the periods presented.
Accordingly, such development costs have been expensed in the period incurred.

                                       12
<PAGE>

Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries
and other related costs for sales and marketing personnel, sales commissions,
travel, public relations and marketing materials and tradeshows. Sales and
marketing expenses increased to $27.1 million in the three months ended March
31, 2000 from $6.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 1999,
representing 49% and 72% of total revenue, respectively. Sales and marketing
expenses increased in absolute dollars due to a significant increase in sales
and marketing personnel, increased marketing program expenditures as well as
higher commissions resulting from the absolute dollar growth in our customer
bookings. The decrease in sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of total
revenue resulted primarily because significant revenue growth outpaced increases
in sales and marketing expenditures. We believe these expenses will continue to
increase in absolute dollars in future periods as we expect to continue to
expand our sales and marketing efforts to promote further growth. We also
anticipate that sales and marketing expenses may fluctuate as a percentage of
total revenue from period to period as new sales personnel are hired and begin
to achieve productivity and the timing of new product releases.

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses consist
primarily of salaries and other related costs for operations and finance
employees, legal and accounting services and certain facilities-related
expenses. General and administrative expenses increased to $4.9 million in the
three months ended March 31, 2000 from $1.6 million in the three months ended
March 31, 1999, representing 9% and 18% of total revenue, respectively. The
increase in absolute dollars for these periods was due to increased personnel
and facility expenses necessary to support our expanding operations. General and
administrative expenses decreased as a percentage of total revenue primarily
because significant revenue growth outpaced increases in general and
administrative expenditures. We believe general and administrative expenses will
increase in absolute dollars as we expect to increase staffing and
infrastructure expenses to support our continued growth.

Purchased In-Process Research and Development, Acquisition-Related and Other
Charges. Effective January 18, 2000, Vignette acquired all of the outstanding
stock and assumed all outstanding stock options of Engine 5, Ltd. ("Engine 5"),
a developer of enterprise-wide Java server technology, in exchange for 248,012
shares of Vignette common stock and approximately $4.9 million in cash. Of the
common stock initially exchanged, approximately 143,397 shares related to the
assumption of Engine 5's existing pre-acquisition stock option grants. The total
cost of the acquisition, including transaction costs, was approximately $20.0
million. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase business combination.
Accordingly, the acquired net liabilities were recorded at their estimated fair
values at the effective date of the acquisition and the results of operations of
Engine 5 will be included with those of the Company for the periods subsequent
to the date of the acquisition.

Additionally, contingent consideration of approximately 88,461 shares of
Vignette common stock and approximately $4.3 million will be based upon defined
future employment requirements earned through the first quarter of fiscal year
2002. The contingent consideration related to the Engine 5 acquisition is not
included in the total purchase price, above, but will be recorded when the
future employment requirements have been met.

Effective February 15, 2000, Vignette acquired all of the outstanding stock and
assumed all outstanding stock options of DataSage, Inc. ("DataSage"), a leading
provider of e-Marketing and personalization applications that help organizations
create a comprehensive single enterprise-wide view of their customers, in
exchange for 9,479,229 shares of Vignette common stock. The total cost of the
acquisition, including transaction costs, was approximately $586.6 million. The
acquisition was accounted for as a purchase business combination. Accordingly,
the acquired net assets were recorded at their estimated fair values at the
effective date of the acquisition and the results of operations of DataSage will
be included with those of the Company for the periods subsequent to the date of
the acquisition.

In connection with our respective acquisitions of Engine 5 and DataSage, we
incurred one-time acquisition costs and integration-related charges, which
include costs associated with product integration, cross training, and other
merger-related costs. Additionally, a portion of the DataSage purchase price was
allocated to in-process research and development based upon an independent third
party appraisal and expensed upon the consummation of the transaction. These
related charges totaled $56.5 million for the

                                       13
<PAGE>

quarter ended March 31, 2000.

Amortization of Deferred Stock Compensation. We have recorded deferred
compensation for the difference between the exercise price of certain stock
option grants and the deemed fair value of our common stock at the time of such
grants. We are amortizing this amount over the vesting periods of the applicable
options, resulting in amortization expense of $1.7 million for both three-month
periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

Amortization of Intangibles. In conjunction with our acquisition of Engine 5,
effective January 18, 2000, the purchase price amounts allocated to acquired
technology of $1.0 million and workforce of $300,000 as well as excess of cost
over fair value of net assets acquired of $19.8 million are being amortized over
the assets' estimated useful life which is equivalent to two years.

Similarly, in conjunction with our acquisition of DataSage, effective February
15, 2000, the purchase price amounts allocated to acquired technology of $4.0
million, workforce of $3.3 million and trademark of $800,000 as well as excess
of cost over fair value of net assets acquired of $517.7 million are being
amortized over the assets' estimated useful life which is equivalent to three
years.

Other Income, Net

Other income, net consists primarily of interest income and expense. Other
income, net increased to $6.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2000
from $376,000 in the three months ended March 31, 1999. The significant increase
was due to interest income earned from cash balances on hand resulting from our
initial and secondary public offerings in February 1999 and December 1999,
respectively.

NET OPERATING LOSSES AND TAX CREDIT CARRYFORWARDS

We have provided a full valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets,
which include net operating loss and research and development carryforwards,
because of the uncertainty regarding their realization. Our accounting for
deferred taxes under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109,
Accounting for Income Taxes, involves the evaluation of a number of factors
concerning the realizability of our deferred tax assets. In concluding that a
full valuation allowance was required, management primarily considered such
factors as our history of operating losses and expected future losses and the
nature of our deferred tax assets.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash provided by operating activities was $4.5 million for the first quarter
ended March 31, 2000 and cash used by operating activities for the same quarter
ended March 31, 1999 was $3.0 million. Net cash provided by operating activities
increased primarily due to changes in operating working capital.

Our investing activities consisted of capital expenditures totaling $5.4 million
and $1.7 million for the three month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999,
respectively, to acquire property and equipment, mainly computer hardware and
software, for our growing employee base. In addition, during the first quarter
of 2000, our investing activities included purchases of equity securities
totaling $8.5 million for strategic investments in other e-Commerce companies.
We expect that our investing activities will continue to increase in the
foreseeable future as we support our continued growth.

Net cash provided by financing activities in the three month periods ended March
31, 2000 and 1999 were $8.7 million and $74.5 million, respectively. The
decrease in cash provided by financing activities was due primarily to the
timing of our initial public offering in the first quarter of 1999.

At March 31, 2000, we had $406.6 million in cash and cash equivalents and $379.6
million in working capital. We have agreements with Comdisco, Inc. providing for
available credit of up to $5.0 million over a period of 36 months at an interest
rate of 12% per year and an equipment lease line of $1.25 million over a period
of 36 months at an interest rate of 7.5% per year. The line of credit with
Comdisco, Inc. is secured

                                       14

<PAGE>

by our receivables, equipment, fixtures, inventory and all other tangible
property. We are currently in compliance with all related financial covenants
and restrictions. At March 31, 2000, we have no outstanding borrowings under
this credit agreement.

In the first quarter of 2000, we continued to expand our product offerings
through the acquisition of complementary businesses. In January 2000, we
acquired all of the outstanding stock and assumed all outstanding stock options
of Engine 5, Ltd. ("Engine 5") in exchange for $4.9 million in cash and
approximately 248,012 shares of Vignette common stock plus contingent
consideration of approximately 88,461 shares of Vignette common stock and
approximately $4.3 million that will be based upon defined future employment
requirements earned through the first quarter of fiscal year 2002. We are in the
process of integrating Engine 5's Java-based application services into
Vignette's e-Business applications. In February 2000, we acquired all of the
outstanding stock and assumed all outstanding stock options of DataSage, Inc.
("DataSage") in exchange for approximately 9,479,229 million shares of Vignette
common stock. Similarly, we are in the process of integrating DataSage's e-
marketing and personalization applications into Vignette's e-Business
applications.

Based on our current operating plan, management believes that our cash on hand,
cash equivalents, short-term investments and commercial credit facilities will
be sufficient to meet our cash requirements for the foreseeable future,
including working capital requirements and planned capital expenditures. We may
require additional funds for other purposes and may seek to raise such
additional funds through public and private equity financings from other
sources. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available
at all or that, if available, such financing will be obtainable on terms
favorable to us or that any additional financing will not be dilutive.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities ("Statement 133").
In June 1999, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
137, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities--Deferral of
the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133 ("Statement 137"), which defers for
one year the effective date of Statement 133. As a result of the deferral
provisions of Statement 137, Statement 133 is now effective for our fiscal year
2001. We have minimal use of derivatives, except for our strategic investments
which are generally in the form of redeemable convertible preferred stock. We
have not determined the impact, if any, that the adoption of Statement 133 will
have on our results of operations or financial position.

In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission staff released Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue Recognition ("SAB 101"), which provides
guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue in financial
statements. We have adopted the provisions of SAB 101 for all transactions
during the year ending December 31, 2000. The application of SAB 101 did not
have a material impact on our results of operations or our financial position.

YEAR 2000 UPDATE

The "Year 2000 Issue" refers generally to the problems that some software may
have in determining the correct century for the year. For example, software with
date-sensitive functions that is not Year 2000 compliant may not be able to
distinguish whether "00" means 1900 or 2000, which may result in failures or the
creation of erroneous results.

In prior filings, we discussed the nature and progress of our plans to become
Year 2000 ready. In late 1999, we completed our remediation and testing of
systems. As a result of those planning and implementation efforts, we
experienced no significant disruptions in mission critical information
technology and non-information technology systems, and we believe those systems
successfully responded to the Year 2000 date changes. The amounts incurred and
expensed for developing and carrying out the plans to complete the Year 2000
modifications did not have a material effect on our operations. We are not aware
of any material problems resulting from the Year 2000 Issue, either with our
products, our internal systems, or the

                                       15
<PAGE>

products and services of third parties. We will continue to monitor our mission
critical computer applications and those of our suppliers and vendors throughout
the year 2000 to ensure that any latent Year 2000 matters that may arise are
addressed promptly.

ITEM 3 -- QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The majority of our operations are based in the U.S. and, accordingly, the
majority of our transactions are denominated in U.S. Dollars. However, we do
have foreign-based operations where transactions are denominated in foreign
currencies and are subject to market risk with respect to fluctuations in the
relative value of currencies. Currently, we have operations in Australia,
England, France, Germany and Singapore and conduct transactions in the local
currency of each location. The impact of fluctuations in the relative value of
other currencies was not material for the three months ended March 31, 2000.

Our interest income is sensitive to changes in the general level of U.S.
interest rates, particularly since the majority of our investments are in short-
term instruments. Due to the nature of our short-term investments, we have
concluded that we do not have material market risk exposure. Our investment
policy requires us to invest funds in excess of current operating requirements
in:

 .  obligations of the U.S. government and its agencies;
 .  investment grade state and local government obligations;
 .  securities of U.S. corporations rated A1 or P1 by Standard & Poor's or the
   Moody's equivalents; and/or
 .  money market funds, deposits or notes issued or guaranteed by U.S. and
   non-U.S. commercial banks meeting certain credit rating and net worth
   requirements with maturities of less than two years.

At March 31, 2000, our cash and cash equivalents consisted primarily of demand
deposits and money market funds held by large institutions in the U.S., and our
short-term investments were invested in corporate debt maturing in less than 90
days.

You should carefully consider the following risks before making an investment
decision. The risks described below are not the only ones that we face.  Our
business, operating results or financial condition could be materially adversely
affected by any of the following risks.  The trading price of our common stock
could decline due to any of these risks, and you as an investor may lose all or
part of your investment.  You should also refer to the other information set
forth in this report, including our financial statements and the related notes.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

We Expect to Incur Future Losses

We incurred net losses of $3.6 million for the year ended December 31, 1996,
$7.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1997, $26.2 million for the year
ended December 31, 1998, $42.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1999 and
$83.5 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2000. As of March 31,
2000, we had an accumulated deficit of $163.3 million.  We have not achieved
profitability and we expect to incur net losses for the foreseeable future. To
date, we have primarily funded our operations from the sale of equity securities
and have not generated cash from operations. We expect to continue to incur
significant product development, sales and marketing, and administrative
expenses and, as a result, we will need to generate significant revenues to
achieve and maintain profitability. Although our revenues have grown
significantly in recent quarters, we cannot be certain that we can sustain these
growth rates or that we will achieve sufficient revenues for profitability. If
we do achieve profitability, we cannot be certain that we can sustain or
increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future.

Our Limited Operating History Makes Financial Forecasting Difficult

We were founded in December 1995 and thus have a limited operating history.  As
a result of our limited operating history, we cannot forecast operating expenses
based on our historical results. Accordingly, we base our expenses in part on
future revenue projections. Most of our expenses are fixed in the short term and
we may not be able to quickly reduce spending if our revenues are lower than we
had projected. Our ability to forecast accurately our quarterly revenue is
limited because our software products have a long sales cycle that makes it
difficult to predict the quarter in which sales will occur. We would expect our

                                       17
<PAGE>

business, operating results and financial condition to be materially adversely
affected if our revenues do not meet our projections and that net losses in a
given quarter would be even greater than expected.

We Expect Our Quarterly Revenues and Operating Results to Fluctuate

Our revenues and operating results have varied significantly from quarter to
quarter in the past and we expect our operating results will continue to vary
significantly from quarter to quarter. A number of factors are likely to cause
these variations, including:

 .    Demand for our products and services;
 .    The timing of sales of our products and services;
 .    The timing of customer orders and product implementations;
 .    Unexpected delays in introducing new products and services;
 .    Increased expenses, whether related to sales and marketing, product
     development or administration;
 .    Changes in the rapidly evolving market for e-Business solutions;
 .    The mix of product license and services revenue, as well as the mix of
     products licensed;
 .    The mix of services provided and whether services are provided by our own
     staff or third-party contractors;
 .    The mix of domestic and international sales; and
 .    Costs related to possible acquisitions of technology or businesses.

Accordingly, we believe that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our operating
results are not necessarily meaningful. Investors should not rely on the results
of one quarter as an indication of future performance.

We plan to increase our operating expenses to expand sales and marketing
operations, develop new distribution channels, fund greater levels of research
and development, broaden professional services and support and improve
operational and financial systems. If our revenues do not increase along with
these expenses, our business, operating results or financial condition could be
materially adversely affected and net losses in a given quarter would be even
greater than expected.

Although we have a limited operating history, we believe that our quarterly
operating results may experience seasonal fluctuations. For instance, quarterly
results may fluctuate based on client calendar year budgeting cycles, slow
summer purchasing patterns in Europe and our compensation policies that tend to
compensate sales personnel, typically in the latter half of the year, for
achieving annual quotas.

Our Quarterly Results Often Depend on a Small Number of Large Orders

We derive a significant portion of our software license revenues in each quarter
from a small number of relatively large orders. Although we do not believe that
the loss of any particular customer would have an adverse effect on our
business, our operating results could be materially adversely affected if we
were unable to complete one or more substantial license sales in any future
period. For example, in five of the last thirteen quarters in the period ended
March 31, 2000, we had at least one customer that accounted for at least 10% of
total revenue in such quarter.

We Depend on Increased Business from Our Current and New Customers and If We
Fail to Grow Our Customer Base or Generate Repeat Business, Our Operating
Results Could Be Harmed

If we fail to grow our customer base or generate repeat and expanded business
from our current and new customers, our business and operating results would be
seriously harmed. Most of our customers initially make a limited purchase of our
products and services for pilot programs. Many of these customers may not choose
to purchase additional licenses to expand their use of our products. Many of
these customers have not yet developed or deployed initial applications based on
our products. If these customers do not successfully develop and deploy such
initial applications, they may not choose to purchase deployment licenses or
additional development licenses. Our business model depends on the expanded use
of our

                                       18
<PAGE>

products within our customers' organizations.

In addition, as we introduce new versions of our products or new products, our
current customers may not require the functionality of our new products and may
not ultimately license these products. Because the total amount of maintenance
and support fees we receive in any period depends in large part on the size and
number of licenses that we have previously sold, any downturn in our software
license revenue would negatively impact our future services revenue. In
addition, if customers elect not to renew their maintenance agreements, our
services revenue could be significantly adversely affected.

Our Operating Results May Be Adversely Affected By Small Delays in Customer
Orders or Product Implementations

Small delays in customer orders or product implementations can cause significant
variability in our license revenues and operating results for any particular
period. We derive a substantial portion of our revenue from the sale of products
with related services. In these cases, our revenue recognition policy requires
us to substantially complete the implementation of our product before we can
recognize software license revenue, and any end of quarter delays in product
implementation could materially adversely affect operating results for that
quarter.

In Order to Increase Market Awareness of Our Products and Generate Increased
Revenue We Need to Expand Our Sales and Distribution Capabilities

We must expand our direct and indirect sales operations to increase market
awareness of our products and generate increased revenue. We cannot be certain
that we will be successful in these efforts. We have recently expanded our
direct sales force and plan to hire additional sales personnel. Our products and
services require a sophisticated sales effort targeted at the senior management
of our prospective clients. New hires will require training and take time to
achieve full productivity. We cannot be certain that our recent hires will
become as productive as necessary or that we will be able to hire enough
qualified individuals in the future. We also plan to expand our relationships
with value-added resellers, systems integrators and other third-party resellers
to build an indirect sales channel. In addition, we will need to manage
potential conflicts between our direct sales force and third-party reselling
efforts.

Failure To Maintain The Support Of Third Party e-Business Consultants May Limit
Our Ability To Penetrate Our Markets

A significant portion of our sales are influenced by the recommendations of our
products made by systems integrators, consulting firms and other third parties
that help develop and deploy e-business applications for our clients. Losing the
support of these third parties may limit our ability to penetrate our markets.
These third parties are under no obligation to recommend or support our
products. These companies could recommend or give higher priority to the
products of other companies or to their own products. A significant shift by
these companies toward favoring competing products could negatively affect our
license and service revenue.

Our Lengthy Sales Cycle and Product Implementation Makes It Difficult to Predict
Our Quarterly Results

We have a long sales cycle because we generally need to educate potential
clients regarding the use and benefits of e-Business applications. Our long
sales cycle makes it difficult to predict the quarter in which sales may fall.
In addition, since we recognize the majority of our revenue from product sales
upon implementation of our product, the timing of product implementation could
cause significant variability in our license revenues and operating results for
any particular period. The implementation of our products requires a significant
commitment of resources by our clients, third-party professional services
organizations or our professional services organization, which makes it
difficult to predict the quarter when implementation will be completed.

We May Be Unable to Adequately Develop A Profitable Professional Services
Organization Which Could Affect Both Our Operating Results and Our Ability to
Assist Our Clients with the Implementation of Our Products.

                                       19
<PAGE>

We cannot be certain that we can attract or retain a sufficient number of the
highly qualified services personnel that our business needs and we cannot be
certain that our services business will ever achieve profitability. Clients that
license our software typically engage our professional services organization to
assist with support, training, consulting and implementation of their Web
solutions. We believe that growth in our product sales depends on our ability to
provide our clients with these services and to educate third-party resellers on
how to use our products. As a result, we plan to increase the number of service
personnel to meet these needs. New services personnel will require training and
education and take time to reach full productivity.  To meet our needs for
services personnel, we may also need to use more costly third-party consultants
to supplement our own professional services organization. We expect our services
revenue to increase in absolute dollars as we continue to provide consulting and
training services that complement our products and as our installed base of
clients grows. To date, services costs related to professional services have
exceeded, or have been substantially equal to, professional services-related
revenue. Although we expect that our professional services-related revenue will
exceed professional services-related costs in future periods, we cannot be
certain that this will occur. We generally bill our clients for our services on
a "time and materials" basis.  However, from time to time we enter into fixed-
price contracts for services.  On occasion, the costs of providing the services
have exceeded our fees from these contracts and, from time to time, we may
misprice future contracts to our detriment. In addition, competition for
qualified services personnel with the appropriate Internet specific knowledge is
intense. We are in a new market and there is a limited number of people who have
acquired the skills needed to provide the services that our clients demand.

We May Be Unable to Attract Necessary Third Party Service Providers Which Could
Affect Our Ability to Provide Support, Consulting and Implementation Services
for Our Products

There may be a shortage of third party service providers to assist our clients
with the implementation of our products. We do not believe our professional
services organization will be able to fulfill the expected demand for support,
consulting and implementation services for our products. We are actively
attempting to supplement the capabilities of our services organization by
attracting and educating third party service providers and consultants to also
provide these services. We may not be successful in attracting these third party
providers or maintaining the interest of current third party providers. In
addition, these third parties may not devote enough resources to these
activities. A shortfall in service capabilities may affect our ability to sell
our software.

Our Business May Become Increasingly Susceptible to Numerous Risks Associated
with International Operations

International operations are generally subject to a number of risks, including:

 .    Expenses associated with customizing products for foreign countries;
 .    Protectionist laws and business practices that favor local competition;
 .    Dependence on local vendors;
 .    Multiple, conflicting and changing governmental laws and regulations;
 .    Longer sales cycles;
 .    Difficulties in collecting accounts receivable;
 .    Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations; and
 .    Political and economic instability.

We received 19% of our total revenue in the quarter ended March 31, 2000,
through licenses and services sold to clients located outside of the United
States. We expect international revenue to account for a significant percentage
of total revenue in the future and we believe that we must continue to expand
our international sales activities in order to be successful. Our international
sales growth will be limited if we are unable to establish additional foreign
operations, expand international sales channel management and support
organizations, hire additional personnel, customize products for local markets,
develop

                                       20
<PAGE>

relationships with international service providers and establish relationships
with additional distributors and third party integrators. In that case, our
business, operating results and financial condition could be materially
adversely affected. Even if we are able to successfully expand international
operations, we cannot be certain that we will be able to maintain or increase
international market demand for our products.

To date, a majority of our international revenues and costs have been
denominated in foreign currencies. We believe that an increasing portion of our
international revenues and costs will be denominated in foreign currencies in
the future. In addition, although we cannot predict the potential consequences
to our business as a result of the adoption of the Euro as a common currency in
the European Economic Community, the transition to the Euro presents a number of
risks, including increased competition from European firms as a result of
pricing transparency. To date, we have not engaged in any foreign exchange
hedging transactions and we are therefore subject to foreign currency risk.

In Order to Properly Manage Growth, We May Need to Implement and Improve Our
Operational Systems on a Timely Basis

We have expanded our operations rapidly since inception. We intend to continue
to expand in the foreseeable future to pursue existing and potential market
opportunities. This rapid growth places a significant demand on management and
operational resources. In order to manage growth effectively, we must implement
and improve our operational systems, procedures and controls on a timely basis.
If we fail to implement and improve these systems, our business, operating
results and financial condition will be materially adversely affected.

We May Be Adversely Affected If We Lose Key Personnel

Our success depends largely on the skills, experience and performance of some
key members of our management. If we lose one or more of these key employees,
our business, operating results and financial condition could be materially
adversely affected. In addition, our future success will depend largely on our
ability to continue attracting and retaining highly skilled personnel. Like
other software companies, we face intense competition for qualified personnel,
particularly in the Austin, Texas area. We cannot be certain that we will be
successful in attracting, assimilating or retaining qualified personnel in the
future.

We Have Relied and Expect to Continue to Rely on Sales of Our StoryServer
Product Line for Our Revenue

We currently derive substantially all of our revenues from the license and
related upgrades, professional services and support of our StoryServer software
products. We expect that we will continue to depend on revenue related to new
and enhanced versions of our StoryServer product line for at least the next
several quarters. We cannot be certain that we will be successful in upgrading
and marketing our products or that we will successfully develop and market new
products and services. If we do not continue to increase revenue related to our
existing products or generate revenue from new products and services, our
business, operating results and financial condition would be materially
adversely affected.

Our Future Revenue is Dependent Upon Our Ability to Successfully Market Our
Vignette Syndication Server

We expect that our future financial performance will depend significantly on
revenue from Vignette Syndication Server and the related tools that we plan to
develop, which is subject to significant risks. We began shipping Vignette
Syndication Server to clients in the first quarter of 1999. This is the first
version of a new product designed for a new market opportunity. There are
significant risks inherent in a product introduction such as Vignette
Syndication Server. Market acceptance of Vignette Syndication Server will depend
on a market developing for Internet syndication products and services and the
commercial adoption of standards on which Vignette Syndication Server is based.
We cannot be certain that either will occur. We cannot be certain that Vignette
Syndication Server will meet customer performance needs or expectations when
shipped or that it will be free of significant software defects or bugs. If
Vignette Syndication Server does not meet customer needs or expectations, for
whatever reason, upgrading or enhancing the product could be costly and time
consuming.

                                       21

If We are Unable to Meet the Rapid Changes in e-Business Applications Technology
Our Existing Products Could Become Obsolete

The market for our products is marked by rapid technological change, frequent
new product introductions and Internet-related technology enhancements,
uncertain product life cycles, changes in client demands and evolving industry
standards. We cannot be certain that we will successfully develop and market new
products, new product enhancements or new products compliant with present or
emerging Internet technology standards. New products based on new technologies
or new industry standards can render existing products obsolete and
unmarketable. To succeed, we will need to enhance our current products and
develop new products on a timely basis to keep pace with developments related to
Internet technology and to satisfy the increasingly sophisticated requirements
of our clients. Internet commerce technology, particularly e-Business
applications technology, is complex and new products and product enhancements
can require long development and testing periods. Any delays in developing and
releasing enhanced or new products could have a material adverse effect on our
business, operating results and financial condition.

We Face Intense Competition for e-Business Applications Software Which Could
Make it Difficult to Acquire and Retain Clients Now and in the Future

The Internet software market is intensely competitive.  Our clients'
requirements and the technology available to satisfy those requirements
continually change.  We expect competition to persist and intensify in the
future.

Our principal competitors include: in-house development efforts by potential
clients or partners; other vendors of software that directly address elements of
e-Business applications, such as BroadVision; and developers of software that
address only certain technology components of e-Business applications (e.g.,
content management), such as Interwoven.

Many of these companies, as well as some other competitors, have longer
operating histories and significantly greater financial, technical, marketing
and other resources than we do.  Many of these companies can also leverage
extensive customer bases and adopt aggressive pricing policies to gain market
share.  Potential competitors such as Netscape and Microsoft may bundle their
products in a manner that many discourage users from purchasing our products.
In addition, it is possible that new competitors or alliances among competitors
may emerge and rapidly acquire significant market share.

Competitive pressures may make it difficult for us to acquire and retain clients
and may require us to reduce the price of our software.  We cannot be certain
that we will be able to compete successfully with existing or new competitors.
If we fail to compete successfully against current or future competitors, our
business, operating results and financial condition would be materially
adversely affected.

We must Successfully Integrate Our Recent Acquisitions of Diffusion, Inc.,
Engine 5, Ltd. and DataSage, Inc.

We acquired Diffusion, Inc., Engine 5, Ltd. and DataSage, Inc. on June 30, 1999,
January 18, 2000 and February 15, 2000, respectively.  Our failure to
successfully address the risks associated with our acquisitions of these
companies could have a material adverse effect on our ability to develop and
market products based on their respective technologies.  In particular, we are
developing integrated products and, accordingly, are devoting significant
resources to product development, sales and marketing.  The success of these
acquisitions will depend on our ability to:

 .    Successfully integrate and manage their operations;
 .    Retain their key employees; and
 .    Develop and market products based on the acquired technology.

Potential Future Acquisitions Could Be Difficult to Integrate, Disrupt Our
Business, Dilute Stockholder Value and Adversely Affect Our Operating Results

                                       22
<PAGE>

We may acquire other businesses in the future, which would complicate our
management tasks. We may need to integrate widely dispersed operations that have
different and unfamiliar corporate cultures. These integration efforts may not
succeed or may distract management's attention from existing business
operations. Our failure to successfully manage future acquisitions could
seriously harm our business. Also, our existing stockholders would be diluted if
we financed the acquisitions by issuing equity securities.

The Internet is Generating Privacy Concerns in the Public and Within
Governments, Which Could Result in Legislation Materially and Adversely
Affecting Our Business or Result in Reduced Sales of Our Products, or Both

Businesses use our StoryServer product to develop and maintain profiles to
tailor the content to be provided to Web site visitors. Typically, the software
captures profile information when consumers, business customers or employees
visit a Web site and volunteer information in response to survey questions.
Usage data collected over time augments the profiles. However, privacy concerns
may nevertheless cause visitors to resist providing the personal data necessary
to support this profiling capability. More importantly, even the perception of
security and privacy concerns, whether or not valid, may indirectly inhibit
market acceptance of our products. In addition, legislative or regulatory
requirements may heighten these concerns if businesses must notify Web site
users that the data captured after visiting certain Web sites may be used by
marketing entities to unilaterally direct product promotion and advertising to
that user. We are not aware of any such legislation or regulatory requirements
currently in effect in the United States. Other countries and political
entities, such as the European Economic Community, have adopted such legislation
or regulatory requirements. The United States may adopt similar legislation or
regulatory requirements. If consumer privacy concerns are not adequately
addressed, our business, financial condition and operating results could be
materially adversely affected.

Our StoryServer product uses "cookies" to track demographic information and user
preferences. A "cookie" is information keyed to a specific server, file pathway
or directory location that is stored on a user's hard drive, possibly without
the user's knowledge, but generally removable by the user. Germany has imposed
laws limiting the use of cookies, and a number of Internet commentators,
advocates and governmental bodies in the United States and other countries have
urged passage of laws limiting or abolishing the use of cookies. If such laws
are passed, our business, operating results and financial condition could be
materially adversely affected.

We May Be Adversely Impacted by the Year 2000 and Other Information Technology
Issues

The "Year 2000 Issue" refers generally to the problems that some software may
have in determining the correct century for the year. For example, software with
date-sensitive functions that is not Year 2000 compliant may not be able to
distinguish whether "00" means 1900 or 2000, which may result in failures or the
creation of erroneous results.

We are exposed to the risk that the Year 2000 Issue could disrupt our
operations. However, as discussed in prior filings, we undertook certain
planning and implementation efforts. We did not experience any significant
system failures at the turning of the new millennium. We presently believe that
the Year 2000 Issue has been mitigated. The amounts incurred and expensed for
developing and carrying out the plans to complete the Year 2000 modifications
did not have a material effect on our operations. See "Item 2.  Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Year
2000 Update."

We Develop Complex Software Products Susceptible to Software Errors or Defects
that Could Result in Lost Revenues, or Delayed or Limited Market Acceptance

Complex software products such as ours often contain errors or defects,
particularly when first introduced or when new versions or enhancements are
released. Despite internal testing and testing by current and potential
customers, our current and future products may contain serious defects,
including Year 2000 errors. Serious defects or errors could result in lost
revenues or a delay in market acceptance, which would

                                       23
<PAGE>

have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial
condition.

If We Experienced a Product Liability Claim We Could Incur Substantial
Litigation Costs

Since our clients use our products for mission critical applications such as
Internet commerce, errors, defects or other performance problems could result in
financial or other damages to our clients. They could seek damages for losses
from us, which, if successful, could have a material adverse effect on our
business, operating results or financial condition. Although our license
agreements typically contain provisions designed to limit our exposure to
product liability claims, existing or future laws or unfavorable judicial
decisions could negate such limitation of liability provisions. We have not
experienced any product liability claims to date. However, a product liability
claim brought against us, even if not successful, would likely be time consuming
and costly.

Our Product Shipments Could Be Delayed if Third Party Software Incorporated in
Our Products is No Longer Available

We integrate third-party software as a component of our software. The third-
party software may not continue to be available to us on commercially reasonable
terms. If we cannot maintain licenses to key third-party software, such as
GroupLens Express, shipments of our products could be delayed until equivalent
software could be developed or licensed and integrated into our products, which
could materially adversely affect our business, operating results and financial
condition.

Our Business is Based on Our Intellectual Property and We Could Incur
Substantial Costs Defending Our Intellectual Property From Infringement or a
Claim of Infringement

In recent years, there has been significant litigation in the United States
involving patents and other intellectual property rights. We could incur
substantial costs to prosecute or defend any such litigation. Although we are
not currently involved in any intellectual property litigation, we may be a
party to litigation in the future to protect our intellectual property or as a
result of an alleged infringement of other's intellectual property, forcing us
to do one or more of the following:

 .  Cease selling, incorporating or using products or services that incorporate
   the challenged intellectual property;
 .  Obtain from the holder of the infringed intellectual property right a
   license to sell or use the relevant technology, which license may not be
   available on reasonable terms; and
 .  Redesign those products or services that incorporate such technology.

We rely on a combination of patent, trademark, trade secret and copyright law
and contractual restrictions to protect our technology. These legal protections
provide only limited protection. If we litigated to enforce our rights, it would
be expensive, divert management resources and may not be adequate to protect our
business.

Anti-Takeover Provisions in Our Charter Documents and Delaware Law Could Prevent
or Delay a Change in Control of Our Company

Certain provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws may
discourage, delay or prevent a merger or acquisition that a stockholder may
consider favorable. Such provisions include:

 .    Authorizing the issuance of "blank check" preferred stock;
 .    Providing for a classified board of directors with staggered, three-year
     terms;
 .    Prohibiting cumulative voting in the election of directors;
 .    Requiring super-majority voting to effect certain amendments to our
     certificate of incorporation and bylaws;
 .    Limiting the persons who may call special meetings of stockholders;
 .    Prohibiting stockholder action by written consent; and

                                       24
<PAGE>

 .    Establishing advance notice requirements for nominations for election to
     the board of directors or for proposing matters that can be acted on by
     stockholders at stockholder meetings.

Certain provisions of Delaware law and our stock incentive plans may also
discourage, delay or prevent someone from acquiring or merging with us.

RISKS RELATED TO THE INTERNET INDUSTRY

Our Performance Will Depend on the Growth of the Internet for Commerce

Our future success depends heavily on the Internet being accepted and widely
used for commerce. If Internet commerce does not continue to grow or grows more
slowly than expected, our business, operating results and financial condition
would be materially adversely affected. Consumers and businesses may reject the
Internet as a viable commercial medium for a number of reasons, including
potentially inadequate network infrastructure, slow development of enabling
technologies or insufficient commercial support. The Internet infrastructure may
not be able to support the demands placed on it by increased Internet usage and
bandwidth requirements. In addition, delays in the development or adoption of
new standards and protocols required to handle increased levels of Internet
activity, or increased government regulation could cause the Internet to lose
its viability as a commercial medium. Even if the required infrastructure,
standards, protocols or complementary products, services or facilities are
developed, we may incur substantial expenses adapting our solutions to changing
or emerging technologies.

Our Performance Will Depend on the New Market for e-Business Applications
Software

The market for e-Business applications software is new and rapidly evolving. We
expect that we will continue to need intensive marketing and sales efforts to
educate prospective clients about the uses and benefits of our products and
services. Accordingly, we cannot be certain that a viable market for our
products will emerge or be sustainable. Enterprises that have already invested
substantial resources in other methods of conducting business may be reluctant
or slow to adopt a new approach that may replace, limit or compete with their
existing systems. Similarly, individuals have established patterns of purchasing
goods and services. They may be reluctant to alter those patterns. They may also
resist providing the personal data necessary to support our existing and
potential product uses. Any of these factors could inhibit the growth of online
business generally and the market's acceptance of our products and services in
particular.

There is Substantial Risk that Future Regulations Could Be Enacted that Either
Directly Restrict Our Business or Indirectly Impact Our Business By Limiting the
Growth of Internet Commerce

As Internet commerce evolves, we expect that federal, state or foreign agencies
will adopt regulations covering issues such as user privacy, pricing, content
and quality of products and services. If enacted, such laws, rules or
regulations could limit the market for our products and services, which could
materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating
results. Although many of these regulations may not apply to our business
directly, we expect that laws regulating the solicitation, collection or
processing of personal/consumer information could indirectly affect our
business. The Telecommunications Act of 1996 prohibits certain types of
information and content from being transmitted over the Internet. The
prohibition's scope and the liability associated with a Telecommunications Act
violation are currently unsettled. In addition, although substantial portions of
the Communications Decency Act were held to be unconstitutional, we cannot be
certain that similar legislation will not be enacted and upheld in the future.
It is possible that such legislation could expose companies involved in Internet
commerce to liability, which could limit the growth of Internet commerce
generally. Legislation like the Telecommunications Act and the Communications
Decency Act could dampen the growth in Web usage and decrease its acceptance as
a communications and commercial medium.

The United States government also regulates the export of encryption technology,
which our products incorporate. If our export authority is revoked or modified,
if our software is unlawfully exported or if the United States government adopts
new legislation or regulation restricting export of software and encryption
technology, our business, operating results and financial condition could be
materially adversely affected.
                                       25
<PAGE>

Current or future export regulations may limit our ability to distribute our
software outside the United States. Although we take precautions against
unlawful export of our software, we cannot effectively control the unauthorized
distribution of software across the Internet.

RISKS RELATED TO THE SECURITIES MARKETS

Our Stock Price May Be Volatile

The market price of our common stock has been highly volatile and has fluctuated
significantly in the past. We believe that it may continue to fluctuate
significantly in the future in response to the following factors, some of which
are beyond our control:

 .    Variations in quarterly operating results;
 .    Changes in financial estimates by securities analysts;
 .    Changes in market valuations of Internet software companies;
 .    Announcements by us of significant contracts, acquisitions, strategic
     partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments;
 .    Loss of a major client or failure to complete significant license
     transactions;
 .    Additions or departures of key personnel;
 .    Sales of common stock in the future; and
 .    Fluctuations in stock market price and volume, which are particularly
     common among highly volatile securities of Internet and software companies.

Our Business May Be Adversely Affected By Class Action Litigation Due to Stock
Price Volatility

In the past, securities class action litigation has often been brought against a
company following periods of volatility in the market price of its securities.
We may in the future be the target of similar litigation.  Securities litigation
could result in substantial costs and divert management's attention and
resources, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating
results and financial condition.

We May Be Unable to Meet Our Future Capital Requirements

We expect the cash on hand, cash equivalents, marketable securities and short-
term investments, and commercial credit facilities to meet our working capital
and capital expenditure needs for at least the next 12 months. After that time,
we may need to raise additional funds and we cannot be certain that we would be
able to obtain additional financing on favorable terms, if at all. Further, if
we issue equity securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or
the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to
those of existing holders of common stock. If we cannot raise funds, if needed,
on acceptable terms, we may not be able to develop or enhance our products, take
advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures or
unanticipated requirements, which could have a material adverse effect on our
business, operating results and financial condition.

PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION
