                             COMSHARE, INCORPORATED
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE A - GENERAL INFORMATION

       The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been
prepared by Comshare, Incorporated (the "Company"), without audit, pursuant to
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. It is suggested
that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction
with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain amounts in the fiscal
1999 financial statements have been reclassified to conform with fiscal 2000
presentations.

       In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of
normal recurring items, required to present fairly its consolidated statement of
operations and the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the three
months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, the consolidated balance sheet as of
September 30, 1999 and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the three
months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998.

       The results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 1999
and 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected in future
quarters or the full fiscal year. The software industry is generally
characterized by seasonal trends.


NOTE B - COMPUTER SOFTWARE

       In prior years, the costs of developing and purchasing new software
products and enhancements to existing software products were capitalized after
technological feasibility was established. The establishment of technological
feasibility and the ongoing assessment of the recoverability of these costs
required considerable judgment by management with respect to various external
factors. In the last several years, product upgrades for the Company's products
have been released regularly with an almost continuous product development
cycle. This has reduced the time between establishing technological feasibility
and general release to the public. Based on these continuous product life
cycles, software costs qualifying for capitalization will be insignificant.
Accordingly, the Company has not capitalized any software development costs
during the three months ended September 30, 1999 and does not anticipate
capitalizing future software development costs.


NOTE C - BORROWINGS

       The Company has a $10 million credit agreement which expires on September
30, 2001. Borrowings are secured by accounts receivable and the credit agreement
contains covenants regarding, among other things, earnings leverage, net worth
and payment of dividends. Under the terms of the credit agreement, the Company
is not permitted to pay cash dividends on its common stock. Borrowings under
this credit agreement were approximately $0.7 million and total available
borrowings were $10 million at September 30, 1999. Borrowings available at any
time are based on the lower of $10 million or a percentage of worldwide eligible
accounts receivable and cash. At September 30, 1999, the interest rate on
borrowings denominated in Japanese yen and Swiss francs, which were used to
hedge receivables in those currencies, varied between 1.8% and 2.9%.

       Separately, in August 1997, the Company's United Kingdom subsidiary
entered into a $1.2 million loan agreement, which matures on May 31, 2000. The
Company had outstanding borrowings of $0.3 million under this agreement at
September 30, 1999, which are classified as a capital lease. The interest rate
was 10.4% at September 30, 1999.

                             COMSHARE, INCORPORATED
       NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)


NOTE D - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

       The Company, at various times, enters into forward exchange contracts to
hedge certain exposures related to identifiable foreign currency transactions
that are relatively certain as to both timing and amount. Gains and losses on
the forward contracts are recognized concurrently with the gains and losses from
the underlying transactions. The forward exchange contracts used are classified
as "held for purposes other than trading." The Company does not use any other
types of derivative financial instruments to hedge such exposures, nor does it
use derivatives for speculative purposes. At September 30, 1999 and June 30,
1999, the Company had forward foreign currency exchange contracts outstanding of
approximately $1.4 million and $2.9 million (notional amounts), respectively,
denominated in foreign currencies. The contracts outstanding at September 30,
1999 mature at various dates through January 14, 2000 and are intended to hedge
various foreign currency commitments due from the Company's distributors. Due to
the short term nature of these financial instruments, the fair value of these
contracts is not materially different than their notional amounts at September
30, 1999 and June 30, 1999.


NOTE E - FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

       The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued SFAS No. 137, a
deferral of SFAS No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities," which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other
contracts and for hedging activities. The Company has not yet adopted this
Statement, but is required to adopt the Statement for the fiscal year ended June
30, 2001. Management has not yet quantified the effect of adopting this
Statement.


NOTE F - SEGMENT REPORTING

       The Company has only one reportable segment - the development, marketing
and support of client/server financial analytic applications software for
management planning and control. Revenue is derived from the licensing of
software and the provision of related services, that include product
implementation, consulting, training and support.

       No single customer accounted for more that 10% of the Company's total
revenue in the three months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998. In addition, the
Company is not dependent on any single customer or group of customers.
Geographic segment information is as follows:

</TABLE>


       Total revenue decreased 15.5% in the three months ended September 30,
1999, compared to the prior year, primarily due to the sale of the Company's
French and German operations and their conversion to distributorships during the
quarter ended December 31, 1998. As a result of the sales of these operations,
software licenses revenue, software maintenance revenue and implementation,
consulting and other services revenue decreased. Revenue for the three months
ended September 30, 1998, reflecting the Company's French and German operations
as distributors ("on a comparable basis"), was $16 million.

       Software license fees were $5.3 million for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 and $5.8 million for the three months ended September 30,
1998, on a comparable basis. The decrease in license fees, on a comparable
basis, was primarily due to a decline in sales of the Company's older products,
which was partially offset by sales of newer products. License fees for
BudgetPLUS grew 76%, or $0.8 million, compared to the year ago quarter. In
addition, FDC license fees grew 26%, or $0.3 million and Decision license fees
grew 22%, or $0.3 million, compared to the year ago quarter.

       Software maintenance revenue was $5.7 million for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 and $6.7 million for the same period a year ago, on a
comparable basis. The Company experienced growth in maintenance revenue from
newer products, primarily BudgetPLUS, offset by a decline in maintenance revenue
from older desktop products and mainframe software. Total mainframe software
maintenance revenue decreased 28% in the three months ended September 30, 1999
compared to last year, primarily due to expected mainframe maintenance
cancellations and continued migration to client/server platforms.

       Implementation, consulting and other services revenue was $3.5 million
for the three months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, on a comparable basis.

       Total costs and expenses decreased 16.4% in the three months ended
September 30, 1999 compared to the prior year, primarily due to the Company's
sale of its French and German operations and their conversion to
distributorships during the quarter ended December 31, 1998. As a result of
these sales, all operating costs were favorably impacted. On a comparable basis,
total costs and expenses were $16.0 million for the three months ended September
30, 1998. The decrease from the same period one year ago is primarily due to
cost reduction actions taken to lower administrative and marketing costs and
reduced cost of sales due to improved distribution procedures.

</TABLE>

       Lower average cash balances during the three months ended September 30,
1999 resulted in decreased interest income compared to the three months ended
September 30, 1998.

FOREIGN CURRENCY

       For the three months ended September 30, 1999, 48.3% of the Company's
total revenue was from outside North America compared with 51.3% for the three
months ended September 30, 1998. Most of the Company's international revenue is
denominated in foreign currencies. The Company recognizes currency transaction
gains and losses in the period of occurrence. As currency rates are constantly
changing, these gains and losses can, at times, fluctuate greatly. The Company's
future operating results may be adversely impacted by the overall strengthening
of the U.S. dollar against foreign currencies of countries where the Company
conducts business; conversely, future operating results may be favorably
impacted by an overall weakening of the U.S. dollar against foreign currencies.
For the three months ended September 30, 1999, foreign currency fluctuations did
not have a material impact on the Company's revenues, operating expenses or net
income.

       The Company had several forward exchange contracts totaling a notional
amount of $1.4 million, outstanding at September 30, 1999. See Note D of Notes
to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.


PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

       The effective income tax rate in the three months ended September 30,
1999 and 1998 was approximately 35%, as the Company recorded a provision for
income taxes on its operating income in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 and
fiscal 1999.

       Realization of deferred tax assets associated with the Company's future
deductible temporary differences, net operating loss carryforwards and tax
credit carryforwards is dependent upon generating sufficient taxable income
prior to their expiration. Although realization of the deferred tax assets is
not assured, management believes it is more likely than not that the deferred
tax assets will be realized through future taxable income or by using a tax
strategy currently available to the Company. On a quarterly basis, management
will assess whether it remains more likely than not that the deferred tax assets
will be realized. The assessment could be impacted by a combination of



                                       13

<PAGE>   14

continuing operating losses and a determination that the tax strategy is no
longer sufficient to realize some or all of the deferred tax assets. The
foregoing statements regarding the realization of deferred tax assets are
"forward looking statements" within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934. See "Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations - Safe Harbor Statement" for discussion of
uncertainties relating to such statements.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

       At September 30, 1999, cash and cash equivalents were $26.7 million,
compared with cash and cash equivalents of $31.8 million at June 30, 1999. The
decrease in cash and cash equivalents is principally due to increased accounts
receivables, primarily due to the slow payment by several foreign distributors
during the three months ended September 30, 1999.

       Net cash used in operating activities was $4.2 million in the three
months ended September 30, 1999, compared with $6.7 million in the three months
ended September 30, 1998. The decrease in net cash used in operating activities
was primarily due an income tax refund of $1.9 million, decreased accounts
payable and increased accounts receivable, during the three months ended
September 30, 1999.

       Net cash used in investing activities was $0.1 million in the three
months ended September 30, 1999, compared with $0.2 million in the three months
ended September 30, 1998. The Company purchases most of its computer equipment
under operating leases. At September 30, 1999, the Company did not have any
material capital expenditure commitments.

       Net cash used in financing activities was $0.7 million in the three
months ended September 30, 1999, compared with net cash provided by financing
activities of $1.9 million in the same period one year ago. The net cash used in
financing activities was primarily due to the repayment of borrowings under debt
agreements and capital leases compared to net borrowings during the quarter
ended September 30, 1998.

       Total assets were $60.2 million at September 30, 1999, compared with
total assets of $63.5 million at June 30, 1999. Working capital as of September
30, 1999 was $22.9 million, compared with $24.5 million as of June 30, 1999. The
decrease in total assets from June 30, 1999 to September 30, 1999 was primarily
due to the decline in cash and cash equivalents during the three months ended
September 30, 1999.

       The Company has a $10 million credit agreement which expires on September
30, 2001. Borrowings are secured by accounts receivable and the credit agreement
contains covenants regarding, among other things, earnings leverage, net worth
and payment of dividends. Under the terms of the credit agreement, the Company
is not permitted to pay cash dividends on its common stock. Borrowings under
this credit agreement were approximately $0.7 million and total available
borrowings were $10 million at September 30, 1999. Borrowings available at any
time are based on the lower of $10 million or a percentage of worldwide eligible
accounts receivable and cash. At September 30, 1999, the interest rate on
borrowings denominated in Japanese yen Swiss francs, which were used to hedge
receivables in those currencies, varied between 1.8% and 2.9%.

       Separately, in August 1997, the Company's European subsidiary entered
into a $1.2 million loan agreement, which matures on May 31, 2000. The Company
had outstanding borrowings of $0.3 million under this agreement at September 30,
1999, which are classified as a capital lease. The interest rate was 10.4% at
September 30, 1999.

       The Company believes that the combination of present cash balances and
amounts available under credit facilities will be sufficient to meet the
Company's currently anticipated cash requirements for at least the next twelve
months. The foregoing statement is a "forward looking statement" within the
meaning of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The extent to
which such sources will be sufficient to meet the Company's anticipated cash
requirements is subject to a number of uncertainties, including the ability of
the Company's operations to generate sufficient cash to support operations, and
other uncertainties described in "Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Safe Harbor Statement."

MARKET SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS

       The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in foreign exchange
and interest rates. To reduce the risk from changes in foreign exchange rates,
the Company selectively uses financial instruments. The Company does not hold or
issue financial instruments for trading purposes.

       The Company, at various times, denominates borrowings in foreign
currencies and enters into forward exchange contracts to hedge exposures related
to foreign currency transactions. The Company does not use any other types of
derivatives to hedge such exposures nor does it speculate in foreign currency.
In general, the Company uses forward exchange contracts to hedge against large
selective transactions that present the most exposure to exchange rate
fluctuations. At September 30, 1999 and June 30, 1999, the Company had forward
contracts of approximately $1.4 million and $2.9 million (notional amounts),
respectively, denominated in foreign currencies. The contracts outstanding at
September 30, 1999 mature through January 14, 2000 and are intended to hedge
various foreign currency commitments due from the Company's distributors. Due to
the short term nature of these financial instruments, the fair value of these
contracts is not materially different than their notional amounts at September
30, 1999 and June 30, 1999.

       Gains and losses on the forward contracts are largely offset by gains and
losses on the underlying exposure. The Company conducts business in
approximately 13 foreign currencies, predominately British pounds and Japanese
yen. A hypothetical 10 percent appreciation of the U.S. dollar from September
30, 1999 market rates would increase the unrealized value of the Company's
forward contracts and a hypothetical 10 percent depreciation of the U.S. dollar
from September 30, 1999 market rates would decrease the unrealized value of the
Company's forward contracts. In either scenario, the gains or losses on the
forward contracts would be largely offset by the gains or losses on the
underlying transactions.

       The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in highly liquid
investments with maturities of ninety days or less. The Company has the ability
to hold its fixed income investments until maturity, and therefore the Company
would not expect its operating results or cash flows to be affected to any
significant degree by the effect of a hypothetical 10 percent change in market
interest rates on its cash and cash equivalents.


YEAR 2000

       The following discussion contains information regarding Year 2000
readiness, and constitutes a "Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure" as defined in the
Year 2000 Information and Readiness Disclosure Act of 1998.

       Many existing computer programs use only the last two digits to refer to
a year. Therefore, these computer programs do not properly recognize a year that
begins with "20" instead of the familiar "19". If not corrected, many computer
applications could fail or create erroneous results. Programs that will operate
in the Year 2000 unaffected by the change in year from 1999 to 2000 are referred
to herein as "Year 2000 compliant". Certain portions of the discussion set forth
below contain "forward looking statements" within the meaning of the Securities
and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including, but not limited to, those
relating to the Year 2000 compliance of the Company's products and systems,
future costs to remediate Year 2000 issues, the timetable in which such
remediation is to occur, the alternatives available to the Company to become
fully Year 2000 compliant, the Company's mission critical requirements and the
impact on the Company of an inability of it or its key suppliers to become fully
Year 2000 compliant. Actual results could differ materially from those in the
forward looking statement due to a number of uncertainties set forth below.

       The Company has tested and modified the most current versions of its
products to be Year 2000 compliant. The Company believes that all of its current
client/server and web-architected products are Year 2000 compliant (including
BudgetPLUS, Decision, DecisionWeb and FDC). The Company has released new
versions of its principal mainframe and desktop products that it believes are
Year 2000 compliant. Any issues that are identified are addressed on an ongoing
basis. The Company has no plans to make earlier versions of its products Year
2000 compliant and has made substantial efforts to contact customers informing
them of this decision.


                                       15
<PAGE>   16

       Not all of the Company's customers are running product versions that are
Year 2000 compliant. The Company has encouraged and will continue to encourage
these customers to migrate to its current product versions. Some of these
customers may not be willing to migrate to current product versions because of
the cost and time required to do so, including the need to rewrite custom
applications which are not Year 2000 compliant. For non-compliant direct
customers that have maintenance contracts, the Company has proactively shipped
them the latest version of its products to ensure their compliance, and is
encouraging its distributors to do the same in indirect territories. A
significant portion of the Company's maintenance revenue in fiscal 1999 was
derived from customers running versions of the Company's products which are not
Year 2000 compliant; however, customers paying maintenance are entitled to
obtain Year 2000 compliant versions of licensed products at no additional cost.

       Certain of the Company's older products will not be made Year 2000
complaint in any version. The Company has ceased providing further maintenance
services for those products and has not renewed maintenance contracts with
customers using these products for periods after September, 1999.

       The Company incorporates a number of third party software tools into its
products. The Company has performed limited testing of the current versions of
these software tools as part of the testing of its products and believes they
are Year 2000 compliant. In addition, with respect to certain of these software
tools, the Company has received written representations or warranties from the
vendor that these products are Year 2000 compliant. Nevertheless, if one of the
databases supported by the Company is not fully Year 2000 compliant, sales of
the Company's products could be impacted.

       If any of the Company's customers are unable to make their information
technology systems Year 2000 compliant in a timely fashion, they may suspend
further product purchases from the Company until their systems are Year 2000
compliant. Because the Company's customers are generally large and medium sized
businesses and the Company has received numerous communications from customers
about their Year 2000 compliance efforts, the Company expects most of its
customers will become Year 2000 compliant in a timely fashion, although the
Company is not in a position to monitor their progress. The Company also plans
to provide extended support for its customers during early January 2000.

       The Company has developed and implemented a plan to determine whether its
vendors, distributors and leased facilities (all of which are referred to as
"Third Party Suppliers") are Year 2000 compliant. The plan includes the
identification of principal Third Party Suppliers, including those which are
mission critical, contact with those Third Party Suppliers to determine their
level of Year 2000 compliance, review of materials provided or published by
Third Party Suppliers regarding their Year 2000 compliance efforts and, with
respect to mission critical Third Party Suppliers, some form of additional
verification of compliance and internal testing. The Company initiated this
process before the end of calendar year 1998. Contingency plans have been or are
being developed for those not expected to be Year 2000 compliant. The Company
believes it has a limited number of mission critical Third Party Suppliers for
which it can reasonably arrange alternatives (excluding utilities and similar
providers) and believes that there are multiple alternatives for most of its
mission critical requirements, including handling certain of these functions
internally. The Company has developed a disaster contingency plan for its
corporate headquarters to maintain communications, computer and network access
and limited helpline support for its customers in the event of a short-term
power failure. In the event of a long-term power or communications failure, the
failure of a mission critical application or the unavailability of a principal
Third Party Supplier, the Company's operations could be materially, adversely
affected.

       The Company has completed the assessment of its principal internal
information technology systems for Year 2000 compliance. With respect to these
eight principal systems, the Company has upgraded or replaced all of these
systems with Year 2000 compliant versions.

       The Company engaged a third party to assess the Company's personal
computer and network hardware and software for Year 2000 compliance and to help
develop a plan to make necessary modifications. The assessment began in the
fourth quarter of calendar year 1998 and was completed in the first half of
calendar year 1999. Remediation of any non-compliant personal computer and
network hardware and software was substantially completed in the first half of
calendar year 1999. The Company believes that all mission critical desktop and
network systems have now been remediated and are currently Year 2000 compliant,
but the Company has contingency plans in the event that these systems encounter
problems.


                                       16
<PAGE>   17

       A failure of one or more of these internal systems to be Year 2000
compliant, particularly the Company's principal internal information technology
systems, could require the Company to manually process information or could
prevent or limit access to mission critical information.

       The Company's non-information technology systems consist principally of
telephone and data communication systems. The Company has completed the
assessment of these systems for Year 2000 compliance and remediation has been
completed.

       Most of the costs incurred by the Company to date on Year 2000 compliance
issues have been internal staff costs and costs relating to normal product
upgrades, which would have been incurred in any event. The Company estimates
that it has spent approximately $1.4 million in fiscal 1999 and less than $0.1
million in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 on personnel, upgrades and
consulting, which are directly or indirectly related to Year 2000 compliance.
The Company presently expects that its future costs relating to Year 2000
compliance for periods after September 30, 1999, including replacement systems,
will be approximately $0.2 million. These cost estimates are subject to a number
of uncertainties, which could result in actual costs exceeding the estimated
amounts including, but not limited to, undetected errors or defects discovered
in connection with the remediation process or operation of the Company's systems
after December 31, 1999, resulting in the need to either replace more of the
systems than originally expected and/or hire more personnel or third party firms
to assist in the remediation process, or the failure of a Third Party Supplier
to become Year 2000 compliant, resulting in the need for the Company to
implement contingency plans, the cost of which are not included in the above
estimates.

       Some commentators have stated that a significant amount of litigation
will arise out of Year 2000 compliance issues. While the Company believes that
its efforts to address Year 2000 issues for which it is responsible should be
successful, a description of its most reasonably likely worst case Year 2000
scenarios have been described above. In addition, it is possible that there will
be undetected errors or defects associated with Year 2000 date functions in the
Company's current products and internal systems or those of its key vendors. If
any of the foregoing scenarios should occur, it is possible that the Company
could be involved in litigation. Further, although the Company does not believe
that it has any obligation to continue to support prior versions of its products
after the termination of maintenance contracts covering those products, nor any
obligation to make prior versions of its products, including custom applications
written by the Company, Year 2000 compliant, it is possible that its customers
may take a contrary position and initiate litigation. Because of the
unprecedented nature of the litigation in this area, it is uncertain how the
Company may be affected by it. In the event of such litigation or the occurrence
of one or more of the most reasonably likely worst case scenarios, the Company's
revenues, net income or financial condition could be materially adversely
affected.


SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT

       Certain information in this Form 10-Q Report contains "forward looking
statements" within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, including those concerning the Company's future results, strategy and
product releases. Actual results could differ materially from those in the
forward looking statements due to a number of uncertainties, including, but not
limited to, the demand for the Company's products and services; the size, timing
and recognition of revenue from significant orders; increased competition and
pricing pressures from competitors; the Company's success in and expense
associated with developing, introducing and shipping new products; new product
introductions and announcements by the Company's competitors; changes in Company
strategy; product life cycles; the cost and continued availability of third
party software and technology incorporated into the Company's products; the
impact of rapid technological advances, evolving industry standards and changes
in customer requirements, including the impact on the Company's revenues of
Microsoft's OLAP database; the impact of recent changes in North American and
international sales personnel and the overall competition for key employees;
cancellations of maintenance and support agreements; software defects; changes
in operating expenses; variations in the amount of cost savings anticipated to
result from cost reduction actions; the impact of cost reduction actions on the
Company's operations; fluctuations in foreign exchange rates; the impact of
undetected errors or defects associated with the Year 2000 date functions on the
Company's current products and internal systems; the ability of the Company to
generate sufficient future taxable income or to execute available tax strategies
required to realize deferred tax assets; economic conditions generally or in
specific industry segments;


                                       17

risks inherent in seeking and consummating acquisitions, including the diversion
of management attention to the assimilation of the operations and personnel of
acquired businesses, the ability of the Company to successfully integrate
acquired businesses and the impact on the Company's results and financial
condition from debt issued, liabilities acquired and additional expenses
incurred in connection with such acquisitions. In addition, a significant
portion of the Company's revenue in any quarter is typically derived from
non-recurring license fees, a substantial portion of which is booked in the last
month of a quarter. Since the purchase of the Company's products is relatively
discretionary and generally involves a significant commitment of capital, in the
event of any downturn in any potential customer's business or the economy in
general, purchases of the Company's products may be deferred or cancelled.
Further, the Company's expense levels are based, in part, on its expectations as
to future revenue and a significant portion of the Company's expenses do not
vary with revenue. As a result, if revenue is below expectations, results of
operations are likely to be materially, adversely affected.

                 SECOND AMENDMENT AND WAIVER TO CREDIT AGREEMENT

Harris Trust and Savings Bank
Chicago, Illinois

Gentlemen:

         Reference is hereby made to that certain Credit Agreement (the "Credit
Agreement"), dated as of September 23, 1997, by and among Comshare, Incorporated
(the "Company") and Comshare Limited (the "Borrowing Subsidiary") (together the
"Borrowers") and Harris Trust and Savings Bank (the "Bank"). All capitalized
terms used herein without definition shall have the same meanings herein as such
terms have in the Credit Agreement.

         The Borrowers have requested that the Bank extend the Termination Date
of, waive the Company's past noncompliance with, and amend certain provisions
of, the Credit Agreement and the Bank will do so under the terms and conditions
set forth in this Amendment.

         1.       WAIVER.

         The Company has informed the Bank that, as of September 30, 1999, the
Company was not in compliance with Section 8.8 of the Credit Agreement. The Bank
hereby agrees to waive compliance with Section 8.8 of the Credit Agreement as of
September 30, 1999, provided that this waiver shall not become effective unless
and until the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3 hereof have been
satisfied.

          2.    AMENDMENTS.

                  (a) The definition of "Termination Date" appearing in Section
         5 of the Credit Agreement shall be amended and as so amended shall be
         restated to read as follows:

                  "Termination Date" means September 30, 2001, or such earlier
                  date on which the Commitment is terminated in whole pursuant
                  to Section 3.4, 9.2 or 9.3 hereof, or such later date to which
                  the Termination Date is extended pursuant to Section 12.4
                  hereof.

                  (b) "Sections 8.8 and 8.9 of the Credit Agreement shall be
         amended and restated in their entirety and so amended shall be restated
         to read as follows:

                           "Section 8.8.    Fixed  Charge  Coverage  Ratio.
                  The  Company  shall not,  as of each date set  forth  below
                  (commencing  on  September 30,  1998), permit the Fixed
                  Charge  Coverage  Ratio to be less than  indicated  below for
                  such period:

                             THIRD AMENDMENT TO THE
                             COMSHARE, INCORPORATED
                          EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

     Pursuant to resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors of Comshare,
Incorporated on June 24, 1999 and subject to shareholder approval at the Annual
Meeting of Shareholders on November 22, 1999, the Comshare, Incorporated
Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plan") is amended as set forth below.

     1. Effective November 22, 1999, the Section 1 of the Plan "Purpose" shall
be amended with the addition of a new sentence at the end of the Section to read
as follows:

          On and after November 22, 1999, non-employee directors of the Company
     may purchase Common Stock under the Plan in lieu of a portion or all of
     their cash compensation from the Company. Stock purchases by non-employee
     directors shall not constitute purchases under Code Section 423. The
     inclusion of non-employee directors under the Plan is intended to attract
     qualified non-employee directors and further align their interests with
     those of shareholders.

     2. Effective November 22, 1999, the second sentence in Section 3 of the
Plan ("Stock") shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

          The total amount of Common Stock on which options may be granted under
     the Plan shall not exceed 800,000 shares, subject to adjustment in
     accordance with Section 12.

     3. Effective November 22, 1999, Section 5 of the Plan "Participants" shall
be amended by the addition of a new sentence at the end of the Section to read
as follows:

          On and after November 22, 1999, non-employee directors of the Company
     also may participate in the Plan for purposes of purchasing Common Stock in
     accordance with Section 20; provided, however, that such purchases shall
     not constitute purchases under Code Section 423.

     4. Effective November 22, 1999, a new Section 20, entitled "Director Stock
Purchases" shall be added to the Plan as set forth below.

          20. DIRECTOR STOCK PURCHASES.

             (a) ELIGIBILITY. Effective November 22, 1999, a non-employee
        director of the Company may


<PAGE>   2

        purchase shares of Common Stock under the Plan from either 50% or 100%
        of his or her base directors' fees (comprising semi-annual retainer and
        Board/Committee meeting fees) on behalf of services for which the
        non-employee director has not yet received payment.

             (b) ELECTIONS. Elections to purchase Common Stock under the Plan in
        lieu of cash compensation may be submitted to the Company semi-annually,
        prior to the end of December and June of each calendar year. An election
        covers base cash compensation for the six-month period ending on the
        June 30 or December 31 next following the date on which the election is
        submitted.

             (c) PURCHASE PRICE. Common Stock purchased by a non-employee
        director hereunder shall have a purchase price equal to 100% of the fair
        market value of the Company's Common Stock on the date of issuance,
        which shall be February 15th or August 15th (or, if later, two business
        days after the release of the Company's earnings for the prior fiscal
        quarter), as applicable. Fair market value for purposes of this
        paragraph shall be determined by the last sale price of the shares of
        the Company's Common Stock on the NASDAQ National Market, as reported in
        The Wall Street Journal, for the date prior to the date of issuance or,
        if there are no sales on such date, on the last date immediately
        preceding the issuance date on which there were sales.

             (d) TERMINATION OF SERVICES. If a non-employee director ceases to
        remain on the Board for any reason, including but not limited to,
        voluntary or forced resignation, death, disability or retirement, within
        a reasonable time after notice of the termination, the Company shall
        issue a check to the former non-employee director (or executor,
        administrator or legal representative, if applicable) in the aggregate
        amount of any accrued but unpaid non-employee directors fees that had
        not yet been paid in the form of Company Common Stock as of the
        non-employee director's date of termination on the Board.


<PAGE>   3

             (e) NON-ASSIGNABILITY. Any non-employee director Common Stock
        purchase right granted hereunder shall be exercised by the non-employee
        director only and is nontransferable. Upon the death of a non-employee
        director, any unpaid directors' fees on behalf of such individual shall
        be paid to the non-employee director's executor, administrator or legal
        representative in accordance with paragraph (d), above.

             (f) ADJUSTMENTS. The total amount of Common Stock available for
        purchase under the Plan shall be appropriately adjusted for any increase
        or decrease in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock
        resulting from payment of a stock dividend on Common Stock, a
        subdivision or combination of shares of Common Stock, or a
        reclassification of Common Stock and, in the event of a merger in which
        the Company shall be the surviving corporation. The foregoing
        adjustments and the manner of application of the foregoing provisions
        shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. Any such
        adjustment may provide for the elimination of any fractional share.

             (g) TERMINATION AND AMENDMENT OF NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR PURCHASE
        RIGHTS. The Board may amend or terminate the Plan or this Section 20 of
        the Plan at any time. No Common Stock may be issued under Section 20 of
        the Plan after July 31, 2004.

             (h) RULE 16B-3 REQUIREMENTS. Notwithstanding any provision of the
        Plan, the Committee may impose such conditions on the purchase of shares
        of Common Stock hereunder as may be required to satisfy the requirements
        of Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act, as amended from time to time (or any
        successor rule).

             (i) RIGHTS PRIOR TO DELIVERY OF SHARES. No participant shall have
        any rights as a shareholder with respect to shares covered by a purchase
        right until the issuance of a stock certificate or electronic


<PAGE>   4

        transfer to the non-employee director or his brokerage account of such
        shares. No adjustment shall be made for dividends or other rights with
        respect to such shares for which the record date is prior to the date
        the certificate is issued or the shares electronically delivered to a
        brokerage account.

             (j) SECURITIES LAWS. Anything to the contrary herein
        notwithstanding, the Company's obligation to sell and deliver stock
        pursuant to a purchase right hereunder is subject to such compliance
        with federal and state laws, rules and regulations applying to the
        authorization, issuance or sale of securities as the Company deems
        necessary or advisable. The Company shall not be required to sell and
        deliver stock unless and until it receives satisfactory assurance that
        the issuance or transfer of such shares shall not violate any of the
        provisions of the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act
        of 1934, or the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange
        Commission promulgated thereunder or those of any stock exchange on
        which the stock may be listed, the provisions of any state laws
        governing the sale of securities, or that there has been compliance with
        the provisions of such acts, rules, regulations and laws.

             (k) EFFECT ON SERVICES. Neither the adoption of Section 20 of the
        Plan nor the Common Stock purchase rights granted hereunder shall be
        deemed to create any right in any non-employee director to be retained
        or continued on the Board.

             (l) ADMINISTRATION AND DEFINITIONS. This Section 20 of the Plan
        shall be administered in conformance with Section 4 of the Plan and
        definitions set forth in other Sections of the Plan shall apply to
        Section 20. For purposes of Section 4 of the Plan, the term "employees"
        shall include non-employee directors.

     THIS THIRD AMENDMENT to the Comshare, Incorporated Employee Stock Purchase
Plan is hereby executed on this the 14th day of October, 1999.
