SPECIAL FACTORS
RECOMMENDATION OF THE PCORDER SPECIAL COMMITTEE AND THE PCORDER BOARD; FAIRNESS
OF THE OFFER AND THE MERGER
The pcOrder Special Committee. The discussion set forth in "Special
Factors--Recommendation of the pcOrder Special Committee and the pcOrder Board;
Fairness of the Offer and the Merger" of the Offer to Purchase, under the
subcaption "The pcOrder Special Committee," is amended and supplemented as
follows:
As noted in the Offer to Purchase under the subcaption "Fairness of the
Offer Price," in considering the Merger Agreement, and deciding to recommend to
the pcOrder Board that the pcOrder Board approve the Merger Agreement and
recommend that pcOrder's stockholders accept the Offer and tender their Shares
in the Offer, the pcOrder Special Committee took into account (among other
things) the methodology employed by DRW as a basis for its fairness opinion,
including the financial data presented to DRW by pcOrder to assist in DRW's
analysis. In that regard, the pcOrder Special Committee received from DRW a
written presentation dated October 24, 2000, which has been filed with the SEC
as an exhibit to pcOrder's Rule 13E-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3
and is available for inspection and copying from the offices of the SEC in the
manner set forth in "The Tender Offer--Section 7. Certain Information
Concerning pcOrder" of the Offer to Purchase.
DRW's written presentation included, among other information:
. then-current information about the market price of the Shares, daily
stock price and trading volume information for the Shares, and a year-
to-date comparison of the market price of the Shares to the market
prices of comparable companies identified in the DRW written
presentation and to the NASDAQ composite index;
. historical and projected income and balance sheet information for
pcOrder with related margin analysis, as provided by pcOrder's
management (see "Special Factors--Certain Financial Projections" of the
Offer to Purchase, as supplemented by Supplement No. 1); and
. a summary valuation analysis, based on methodology described in "Special
Factors--Opinion of Financial Advisor to the pcOrder Special Committee"
of the Offer to Purchase (which section should be read for, among other
things, the qualifications, assumptions and limitations stated in DRW's
fairness opinion).
In addition to taking into consideration the information contained in DRW's
written presentation and its own familiarity with the business, affairs,
financial condition and prospects of pcOrder, the pcOrder Special Committee
also took into consideration the discussions it had held with DRW on October 17
and 18, 2000, regarding:
. certain qualitative factors relevant to an evaluation of pcOrder; and
. estimated values that might be ascribed to some of pcOrder's assets in a
transaction with Trilogy that had resulted in a range of estimated
values for such a transaction yielding a range of per Share values from
approximately $4 to approximately $6.
These discussions were described (together with the limitations and
qualifications on DRW's input on the subject of estimated asset values) in
"Special Factors--Background of the Offer and the Merger" in Supplement No. 1.
Based on these considerations and the other factors enumerated in "Special
Factors--Recommendation of the pcOrder Special Committee and the pcOrder Board;
Fairness of the Offer and the Merger," under the subcaption "The pcOrder
Special Committee," in the Offer to Purchase, the pcOrder Special Committee
concluded that the Offer Price exceeded the per-Share net book value of
pcOrder, the per-Share going concern value of pcOrder as a stand-alone company
for the foreseeable future and the reasonably attainable per-Share liquidation
value of pcOrder for the foreseeable future.

The pcOrder Board. The discussion set forth in "Special Factors--
Recommendation of the pcOrder Special Committee and the pcOrder Board; Fairness
of the Offer and the Merger" of the Offer to Purchase, under the subcaption
"The pcOrder Board," is amended and supplemented as follows:
In considering the Merger Agreement, and deciding to accept the
recommendation of the pcOrder Special Committee that the pcOrder Board approve
the Merger Agreement and recommend that pcOrder's stockholders accept the Offer
and tender their Shares in the Offer, the pcOrder Board took account of the
fact that it had formed the pcOrder Special Committee at its September 20, 2000
meeting to (among other things) investigate and make recommendations to the
pcOrder Board regarding any merger transaction involving Trilogy (see "Special
Factors--Background of the Offer and the Merger" in the Offer to Purchase) and
that it had done so because the members of the pcOrder Special Committee were
independent directors not affiliated with Trilogy or employed by pcOrder. The
pcOrder Board also took into consideration that, while the DGCL required the
entire Board to approve the Merger Agreement, the negotiations with Trilogy
regarding the terms of the Merger Agreement had been conducted by the Special
Committee, in confidential deliberations with its own legal and financial
advisors, so that the interests of the Unaffiliated Stockholders would be
represented by directors who did not have any actual or potential conflict of
interest.
On this basis and having considered the report of the pcOrder Special
Committee as to the work it had performed in reaching its recommendation to the
full Board to approve the Merger Agreement, the pcOrder Board concluded that
the Offer and the Merger were procedurally fair to the Unaffiliated
Stockholders.
In reaching its conclusion that the Offer and the Merger were also
substantively fair to the Unaffiliated Stockholders, the pcOrder Board took
into account, in addition to the factors enumerated in the Offer to Purchase:
. its own familiarity with the information under "pcOrder's Deteriorating
Financial Condition" in "Special Factors--Recommendation of the pcOrder
Special Committee and the pcOrder Board; Fairness of the Offer and the
Merger--the pcOrder Special Committee" in the Offer to Purchase);
. its own familiarity with the then-current market price of the Shares and
the historical market prices of the Shares since pcOrder became a
publicly-traded company in February 1999 (see "Special Factors--
Background of the Offer and the Merger" in the Offer to Purchase); and
. its own familiarity with the efforts that had been taken by pcOrder's
management, earlier in 2000, to ascertain whether third parties might be
interested in entering into a transaction with pcOrder and the fact that
no interest in acquiring the entire company had resulted from these
efforts (see "Special Factors--Background of the Offer and the Merger"
in the Offer to Purchase).
Also, based on its own familiarity with the business and the affairs of
pcOrder, the pcOrder Board concurred with the conclusion of the pcOrder Special
Committee that there was no better alternative to the Offer and the Merger for
the Unaffiliated Stockholders (see "Absence of Better Alternatives" in "Special
Factors--Recommendation of the pcOrder Special Committee and the pcOrder Board;
Fairness of the Offer and the Merger--the pcOrder Special Committee" in the
Offer to Purchase).
The pcOrder Board, based on its own familiarity with the business affairs of
pcOrder, pcOrder's financial condition and results of operations and the
inherent uncertainty about pcOrder's ability to improve its financial condition
in the foreseeable future, concluded that the Offer Price exceeded the per-
Share net book value of pcOrder, the per-Share going concern value of pcOrder
as a stand-alone company for the foreseeable future and the reasonably
attainable per-Share liquidation value of pcOrder for the foreseeable future.
As noted in the Offer to Purchase, the decision by the pcOrder Board to
accept the recommendation of the pcOrder Special Committee that the pcOrder
Board approve the Merger Agreement and recommend that pcOrder's stockholders
accept the Offer and tender their Shares in the Offer was taken by a vote of
three of the five members of the pcOrder Board, namely the two members of the
pcOrder Special Committee and the
S-4
<PAGE>
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of pcOrder. The other two members of the
pcOrder Board did not participate in the vote by reason of their direct (in the
case of one of them) and indirect (in the case of the other) interests in
Trilogy.
POSITION OF TRILOGY REGARDING FAIRNESS OF THE OFFER AND THE MERGER
The discussion set forth in "Special Factors--Position of Trilogy Regarding
Fairness of the Offer and the Merger" of the Offer to Purchase, as amended by
Supplement No. 1, is amended and supplemented as follows:
In concluding that the Offer Price was fair, Trilogy took into account that
the estimated liquidation value of $4.37 to $4.64 per-Share and the unaudited
net book value of $3.10 per-Share to Unaffiliated Stockholders of pcOrder were
both less than the Offer Price. Trilogy also determined the going concern value
of pcOrder as a stand-alone company to be zero.
CERTAIN FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS
The discussion set forth in the third paragraph under the caption "Special
Factors--Certain Financial Projections" of the Offer to Purchase, as amended by
Supplement No. 1, is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
The projections are forward-looking statements that are based on a number of
estimates and assumptions that involve judgments with respect to future
economic and competitive conditions, inflation rates and future business
conditions. These estimates and assumptions may not be realized and are
inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive
uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of pcOrder, as well as to
the inherent uncertainties resulting from pcOrder's deteriorating financial
condition. Therefore, there can be no assurance that the projections will prove
to be reliable estimates of future performance. It is quite likely that actual
results will vary materially from these estimates. The inclusion of these
projections is not a representation by any party that the estimates will be
realized. There can be no assurances in this regard. None of Trilogy, Sub, DRW,
SG Cowen, the Dealer Manager or the Information Agent assumes any
responsibility for the accuracy of these projections. Although the projections
provided in this section were not prepared with a view to public disclosure or
in compliance with any published guidelines regarding projections and are
inherently subject to many assumptions and uncertainties, including those
described in this section, these projections reflect the best good faith
estimates of pcOrder's management based on information known to them and
subject to these assumptions and uncertainties.
CERTAIN LITIGATION
The discussion set forth in "Special Factors--Certain Litigation" of the
Offer to Purchase, as supplemented by Supplement No. 1, is amended and
supplemented as follows:
On November 17, 2000, all of the defendants named in the First Texas
Petition filed a Notice of Removal in the District Court of Travis County,
Texas and a Petition of Removal in the Austin Division of the United States
District Court for the Western District of Texas removing the lawsuit from
Texas state court to federal court. The lawsuit initiated by the Second Texas
Petition has not been removed and remains pending in Texas state court.
