                               THE TITAN CORPORATION
                     NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   MARCH 31, 1998
                                          
                (Dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data)

NOTE (1)  BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PREPARATION

The accompanying consolidated financial information of The Titan Corporation 
and its subsidiaries ("the Company" or "Titan") should be read in conjunction 
with the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the 
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K to the Securities and Exchange 
Commission for the year ended December 31, 1997 and DBA Systems, Inc.'s  
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 1997. The accompanying 
financial information includes all subsidiaries on a consolidated basis and 
all normal recurring adjustments which are considered necessary by the 
Company's management for a fair presentation of the financial position and 
results of operations for the periods presented. However, these results are 
not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The prior year 
financial statements have been restated to reflect a merger in 1998 (see Note 
2) and the discontinuance of an operation in 1997 (see Note 3). Additionally, 
certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 1998 
presentation.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted 
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions 
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of 
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and 
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. 
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS.  In January 1998, the Company adopted Statement of 
Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" 
("SFAS 130").  This Statement establishes standards for reporting and display 
of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general purpose 
financial statements.  The objective of the Statement is to report a measure 
of all changes in equity of an enterprise that result from transactions and 
other economic events of the period other than transactions with owners 
("comprehensive income").  Comprehensive income is the total of net income 
and all other nonowner changes in equity.  The adoption of the accounting and 
disclosure provisions of SFAS 130 has had no material impact on the Company's 
financial statements and results of operations, as comprehensive income is 
the same as net income for all periods presented herein.

In March 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting 
Standards No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other 
Postretirement Benefits" ("SFAS 132").  This statement revises and 
standardizes employers' disclosures about pension and other postretirement 
benefit plans, but it does not change the measurement or recognition of those 
plans.  This Statement further requires restatement of disclosures for 
earlier periods provided for comparative purposes.  The adoption of the 
disclosure provisions of SFAS 132 has had no material impact on the Company's 
financial statements or related disclosures thereto.

In March 1998, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee issued AICPA 
Statement of Position 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software 
Developed or Obtained for Internal Use" ("SOP 98-1").  This Statement 
provides guidance on accounting for the costs of computer software developed 
or obtained for internal use and identifies characteristics of internal-use 
software as well as assists in determining when computer software is for 
internal use.  SOP 98-1

                                       6

<PAGE>


is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998, with earlier 
application permitted.  The Company believes that the adoption of the 
accounting and disclosure provisions of SOP 98-1 will not have a material 
impact on the Company's financial statements, results of operations or 
related disclosures thereto.

In April 1998, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee issued AICPA 
Statement of Position 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities" 
("SOP 98-5").  This Statement provides guidance on the financial reporting of 
start-up costs and organization costs and requires that such costs of 
start-up activities be expensed as incurred.  SOP 98-5 is effective for 
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998, with earlier application 
permitted.  The Company has not yet determined what impact, if any, the 
adoption of the accounting and disclosure provisions of SOP 98-5 will have on 
the Company's financial statements, results of operations or related 
disclosures thereto.

Note (2)  MERGERS AND ACQUISITION

On February 27, 1998, the Company consummated a merger with DBA Systems, Inc. 
("DBA"), a Florida Corporation, in a stock-for-stock transaction.  DBA is a 
developer and manufacturer of digital imaging products, electro-optical 
systems and threat simulation/training systems. DBA's products and systems 
are primarily used by the defense and intelligence communities; accordingly, 
it is included in Titan's Information Technologies segment. Titan issued 
approximately 6,100,000 shares of common stock for all the outstanding shares 
of DBA stock based on an exchange ratio of approximately 1.37 shares of Titan 
common stock for each share of DBA stock. The special charges of $1,460 in 
the quarter ended March 31, 1998 represent the costs and expenses related to 
this merger. The merger constituted a tax-free reorganization and has been 
accounted for as a pooling of interests. 

Effective January 1, 1998, DBA's June 30 fiscal year-end has been changed to 
coincide with the Company's year-end. The 1997 financial statements presented 
have been restated to include the combined results of operations, financial 
position and cash flows of DBA as if the merger had occurred at the beginning 
of the periods presented.

For fiscal 1997, the combined results reflect the results of operations, cash 
flows and changes in stockholders' equity for the Company's three months 
ended March 31, 1997 combined with DBA's corresponding activity for the three 
months ended December 31, 1996. The balance sheet as of December 31, 1997, 
reflects both Titan's and DBA's financial condition as of December 31, 1997.

</TABLE>


On March 31, 1998, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock 
of Validity Corporation ("Validity"), a California corporation, for $12 
million in cash, and notes payable to the shareholders of Validity totaling 
$3 million, due and payable March 31, 1999, and bearing interest at the prime 
rate.  The transaction has been accounted for as a purchase; accordingly, the 
consolidated balance sheet includes Validity as of March 31, 1998.  The 
excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets 
acquired is approximately $18.7 million as of March 31, 1998, including 
$5,156 of accounts receivable and accrued liabilities, current and 
non-current, of $4,063 and $3,000, respectively.  Validity's results of 
operations will be consolidated with the Company's results of operations 
beginning April 1, 1998. 

On February 26, 1998, Titan entered into a definitive merger agreement with 
Horizons Technology, Inc. ("Horizons"), a Delaware corporation, whereby, if 
approved by the shareholders of Horizons, Horizons will become a wholly-owned 
subsidiary of Titan Technologies and Information Systems Corporation, a 
wholly-owned subsidiary of Titan, in a stock-for-stock transaction.

Note (3)  DISCONTINUED OPERATION

In April 1997, the Company's Board of Directors adopted a plan to divest the 
Company's broadband communications business.  The results of the broadband 
communications business have been accounted for as a discontinued operation 
in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, which among 
other provisions, anticipates that the plan of disposal will be carried out 
within one year. Management has identified several potential strategic 
investors with whom it is presently involved in negotiations for the sale of 
all or part of the business and/or technology of the broadband communications 
business.

                                       8

<PAGE>

Concurrently, Titan continues to search for other potential investors. 
Management does not anticipate that the ultimate disposition of broadband 
will result in a material gain or loss.  During the quarter ended March 31, 
1998, the Company received approximately $2,400 as settlement of certain 
contingencies related to the broadband patents and intangibles as well as 
initial payments related to the licensing of the technology.  These proceeds 
were applied to net current assets of discontinued operation.

Revenues for the broadband communications business were $0 and $524 for the 
three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Included in the 
loss from discontinued operation is a tax benefit of $177 for the three 
months ended March 31, 1997. The Company deferred losses from the 
discontinued operation of $9,721 in fiscal year 1997 and $3,290 in the three 
months ended March 31, 1998, which primarily represented amortization costs 
of intangible assets, and to a lesser extent, certain wind-down costs of the 
business. Included in the deferred losses is interest of $100 in the three 
months ended March 31, 1998, allocated to the discontinued operation based on 
the ratio of net assets to be sold to the sum of total net assets of the 
Company. Net current assets of the discontinued operation consist primarily 
of accounts receivable, inventory, and cumulative deferred losses from the 
date of discontinuance net of accounts payable, accrued compensation and 
other current liabilities. Net noncurrent assets of discontinued operation 
consist primarily of property and equipment. 

NOTE (4)  DEBT

In March 1998, the Company's line of credit agreement was amended to increase 
the available credit to $30,000 and extend the maturity date to June 30, 
1999. The Company has the option to borrow at a bank prime rate or at LIBOR 
plus 2%. The agreement, as amended, contains certain financial covenants, 
including, but not limited to, provisions prohibiting consecutive quarterly 
losses, and provisions requiring the Company to have annual net income, as 
defined, and maintain stipulated levels of net worth, and minimum fixed 
charge coverage and quick ratios. At March 31, 1998, borrowings outstanding 
under the line of credit were $19,900, at a weighted average interest rate of 
8.38%.  The Company also had commitments under letters of credit under this 
agreement of $1,183, which reduced availability under the line of credit to 
$8,917. At March 31, 1998, the Company was in compliance with all financial 
covenants under its various debt agreements.

In 1998 and 1997, respectively, options to purchase 322,167 and 1,313,663 
shares of common stock at prices ranging from $6.32 to $9.50 and $3.50 to 
$9.50 per share were not included in the computation of diluted EPS, as the 
exercise price of such options was greater than the average market price of 
the common shares. In 1998 and 1997, 9,391,000 and 9,857,000 shares, 
respectively, of common stock that could result from the conversion of the 
Company's convertible subordinated debentures were not included in the 
computation of diluted EPS, as the effect would have been anti-dilutive.  In 
both 1998 and 1997, 463,248 shares of common stock that could result from the 
conversion of cumulative convertible preferred stock were not included in the 
computation of diluted EPS, as the effect would have been anti-dilutive.

In 1997, 333,333 common shares that could result from the conversion of 
Series B Cumulative Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock were not included 
in the computation of diluted EPS, as the effect would have been 
anti-dilutive.  The conversion privilege expired in November 1997.  Also 
anti-dilutive in 1997 were warrants outstanding for 100,000 common shares.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Consolidated results: 

Revenues for the first quarter of 1998 decreased approximately 10% from 
$48,721 in the first quarter of 1997.  Decreased revenues in the Information 
Technologies (which includes DBA's operating results for all periods) and 
Software Systems segments were offset partially by increases in the 
Communications Systems and Medical Sterilization and Food Pasteurization 
segments. The Company reported net income of $587 for the first quarter of 
1998 compared to $847 for the first quarter of 1997. Included in the first 
quarter of 1997 is a loss from discontinued operations of $343, and included 
in the first quarter of 1998 is a special pre-tax charge for merger related 
expenses of $1,460. Income from continuing operations in the first quarter of 
1998 was $587, compared to $1,190 in the first quarter of 1997. This 
difference was primarily due to the impact of increased margins in the 
Information Technologies, Communications Systems and the Medical 
Sterilization and Food Pasteurization segments.

Selling, general and administrative expense ("SG&A")decreased $840 or 14.3% 
in the first quarter of 1998 compared to the same period in 1997.  As a 
percent of revenue, SG&A decreased from 12.1% in the first quarter of 1997 to 
11.5% in the first quarter of 1998. SG&A decreased as a percentage of 
revenues, as well as in absolute dollars, primarily as a result of the 
Company's ongoing efforts to consolidate and streamline its administrative 
functions.  Research and development costs ("R&D") decreased slightly from 
$1,607 in the first quarter of 1997 to $1,518 in the first quarter of 1998, 
primarily as a result of the near completion of certain certification efforts 
in the Communications Systems segment in the first quarter of 1998.

Special charges for merger related expenses of $1,460 were recorded in the 
first quarter of 1998 relating to the Company's merger with DBA. These costs 
relate to direct transaction costs, consisting primarily of investment 
banking and other professional fees.  

Net interest expense increased from $1,133 in the first quarter of 1997 to 
$1,218 in 1998, primarily from increased borrowings on the Company's line of 
credit.

The income tax provision reflects a 35% effective rate in the first quarter 
of 1997 and the first quarter of 1998.  This effective rate approximates the 
expected combined federal and state statutory rates, less expected credits, 
primarily related to R&D activities.

Business Segments:  

Revenues in the Information Technologies segment decreased $3,864 from 
$29,352 in the first quarter of 1997 compared to $25,488 in the first quarter 
of 1998. This decrease was primarily due to the redeployment of Department of 
Defense ("DoD") funding appropriations, which impacted certain work the 
Company performs for the U.S. Navy. Operating income decreased from $2,692 in 
the first quarter of 1997 compared to $2,368 in the first quarter of 1998. 
This change was primarily due to the impact of the special charges of $1,460 
related to merger transactions, offset by improved margins on completed 
contracts, and, to a lesser degree, the impact of cost reduction efforts 
initiated by the Company in mid-1997.

Revenues in the Communications Systems segment increased $873 quarter to 
quarter, from $11,025 to $11,898, due primarily to shipments made on the 
Company's ongoing Mini-DAMA production contract and revenues related to the 
Company's Multi Media Asia (M2A) project. Operating income increased $665, 
from $131 in the first quarter of 1997 to $796 in the first quarter of 1998, 
primarily reflecting the impact of the increased revenues, as well as the 
winding down from 1997 to 1998 of significant development and certification 
efforts.

The commercial satellite communications business accounted for approximately 
$4,180 of the Communications Systems segment revenues generated in the first 
quarter of 1998. The commercial satellite communications business provides 
Xpress Connection terminals to PT. Pasifik Satelit Nusantara ("PSN") as well 
as the ground segment for the M2A system.  The ongoing economic and political 
turmoil in Asia could result in a material and adverse impact on this 
segment's revenues for the remainder of 1998.  

Software Systems segment revenues declined $548, from $4,039 in the first 
quarter of 1997 to $3,491 in the first quarter of 1998, primarily due to the 
impact of a reduction in revenues from a significant customer as well as a 
delay in the timing of work to be performed on certain projects. Operating 
income decreased from $775 in the first quarter of 1997 to $648 in the first 
quarter of 1998, primarily resulting from the decline in revenues.

Revenues in the Medical Sterilization and Food Pasteurization segment 
increased $802, from $1,145 in the first quarter of 1997 compared to $1,947 
in the same quarter for 1998. This increase primarily relates to work 
performed on the Company's two contracts awarded in late 1997 to provide 
in-house SureBeam sterilization systems. Operating income increased $234, 
from an operating loss of $26 in the first quarter of 1997 compared to 
operating income of $208 in the first quarter of 1998. The improvement in 
operating performance is a result of the growth in revenues.

In the Emerging Technologies and Businesses segment, for the first quarter of 
1997 compared to the first quarter of 1998, revenues and operating 
performance declined from $3,160 to $1,155 and from operating income of $306 
to an operating loss of $431, respectively.  This decline was primarily 
related to the wind down of the Company's environmental consulting business 
during the first quarter of 1998 and reduced margins related to wind-down 
costs incurred on certain of the Company's contracts to build linear electron 
accelerators.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

During the three months ended March 31, 1998, Titan used $10,321 for 
operating requirements.  Significant cash uses included an increase in 
accounts receivable balances of $7,764 and an increase in inventories of 
$3,106, both increases primarily related to government satellite 
communications and commercial rural telephony products, and the funding 
requirements for accrued compensation obligations of $1,963. 

Approximately $3,200 and $2,200 of the increases in receivables and 
inventory, respectively, is related to the commercial satellite 
communications business. Titan's aggregate investment in the commercial 
satellite communications business is reflected in the balance sheet primarily 
within the captions of Accounts Receivable, Inventories, and Property and 
Equipment and aggregates approximately $16,088 at March 31, 1998.  The 
Company has negotiated a payment plan with its customer PSN for settlement 
of all amounts due from PSN as of March 31, 1998, whereby PSN will make 
monthly installments over the next 15 months, with a balloon payment at the 
end of the term.  In the event that PSN obtains financing from additional 
sources, the payment terms will be renegotiated at that time. The Company is 
continually assessing the impact of the recent events in Asia, including the 
currency devaluation in Indonesia, Malaysia, Taiwan and the Philippines, on 
its Communications Systems segment, and presently does not believe that there 
has been any significant impairment in its aggregate investment, as 
mentioned above, or in the segment's business.  

Cash of $11,679, net of cash acquired, was used for the Company's acquisition 
of Validity Corporation.  Cash was provided primarily by the Company's line 
of credit ($7,550) and by the sale of investments ($4,499).  In March 1998, 
the Company's line of credit agreement was amended to increase the available 
credit to $30,000 and extend the maturity date to June 30, 1999.  The Company 
has the option to borrow at a bank prime rate or at LIBOR plus 2%.  At March 
31, 1998, borrowings outstanding under the line of credit were $19,900, at a 
weighted average interest rate of 8.38%.  The Company also had commitments 
under letters of credit under this agreement of $1,183, which reduced 
availability under the line of credit to $8,917.  At March 31, 1998, the 
Company was in compliance with all financial covenants under its various debt 
agreements.

Funding for the advancement of the Company's strategic goals, including 
continued investment in targeted commercial businesses and start-up ventures, 
is expected to continue in 1998.  The Company plans to finance these 
requirements from a combination of sources, which include cash generation 
from the Company's core businesses and continuation and expansion of the 
Company's bank line of credit.  Furthermore, the Company anticipates selling 
its broadband communications business in 1998, and is also exploring several 
equity alternatives as potential sources of capital. One of Titan's primary 
strategies is the funding of growth in specific subsidiaries through spin-out 
transactions.  If Titan is unable to implement this strategy, whether in 
whole or in part, then the Company may need to complete additional equity or 
debt financings to fund the continued expansion of its operations and 
potential acquisitions of new technologies.  Any additional equity or 
convertible debt financings could, however, result in substantial dilution to 
the Company's stockholders.  Management is continually monitoring and 
reevaluating its level of investment in all of its operations and the 
financing sources available to achieve the Company's goals in each business 
area.

                      AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT RE RELEASE 
                         OF CERTAIN TITAN INFORMATION
                        SYSTEMS CORPORATION COLLATERAL

This Amendment to Agreement Re Release of Certain Titan Information Systems 
Corporation Collateral ("Amendment") is entered into by and among the Titan 
Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Borrower"), Imperial Bank, a California 
banking corporation ("Imperial"), Sumitomo Bank of California, a California 
banking corporation ("Sumitomo") (Imperial and Sumitomo are collectively 
referred to herein as the "Banks"), and Sumitomo in its capacity as agent for 
Sumitomo and Imperial (the "Agent"), and is dated as of February 25, 1998. 
Reference is hereby made to (1) that certain Agreement Re Release of Certain 
Titan Information Systems Corporation Collateral dated as of December 8, 1997 
(the "Collateral Release Agreement"); (2) that certain Amended and Restated 
Commercial Loan Agreement dated as of May 15, 1997 by and between Borrower, 
the Banks and Agent (the "Loan Agreement"), and (3) that certain Amendment to 
Existing Security Documents between the Banks, Agent, Borrower, and Titan 
Information Systems Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("TISC") dated as of 
May 15, 1997 (the "Amendment to Existing Security Documents").  Capitalized 
terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth 
in the Loan Agreement, the Collateral Release Agreement, and the Amendment to 
Existing Security Documents.

                                  I. RECITALS
                                          
     A.   TISC has changed its name to Linkabit Wireless, Inc. ("Linkabit"). 
     Linkabit is engaged in an initial public offering of its stock (the 
     "IPO"). The IPO was expected to be finalized by March 15, 1998.

     B.   The IPO has not been completed and Borrower and Linkabit have
     requested that the Banks and Agent extend the time for Linkabit to repay
     certain loans and accommodations to Borrower as set forth in the 
     Collateral Release Agreement.

     C.   Borrower further desires to amend certain financial reporting
     requirements in the Collateral Release Agreement and the Loan Agreement.

     D.   Borrower desires from time to time to form subsidiaries, affiliates 
     or other related entities, and the Banks wish to establish requirements 
     under the Loan Agreement in connection with the formation of any such 
     entities.

     E.   The Banks and Agent are willing to consent to such modifications on
     the terms and subject to the condition set forth below.

                               II. AGREEMENT
                                          
     Now, therefore, it is hereby agreed by and between the parties hereto as
follows.

     1.        Paragraph 3C of the Collateral Release Agreement is amended to
     change the date of March 15, 1998, appearing in the 10th, 16th and 21st
     lines of said paragraph, to June 30, 1998.
     

<PAGE>

     2.        The second sentence of paragraph 4 of the Collateral Release
     Agreement is deleted and is replaced by the following:

          "In addition, on or before February 28, 1998, Borrower shall provide
          to each of the Banks, in form and detail reasonably acceptable to 
          each of the Banks, a detailed post-closing balance sheet of Borrower 
          and a post-closing, opening balance sheet of Linkabit."
          
     3.        The first sentence of section 6.2(e) of the Loan Agreement is
     hereby amended to read as follows:

          "Borrower will submit annual projections prepared by quarter, for 
          each new fiscal year contemporaneously with Borrower's delivery of 
          its fiscal year-end financial statements."
          
     4.        Paragraph 6.26 is added to the Loan Agreement to read as follows:

          "Borrower will not form any new subsidiary, affiliate or related
          entity nor transfer any of Borrower's assets to any subsidiary,
          affiliate or related entity without first obtaining the written
          consent of Agent to do so, which consent shall not be unreasonably
          withheld.  At any time that Borrower forms a new subsidiary,
          affiliate, or other related entity, it will upon request of Agent or
          either of the Banks, execute and deliver a continuing guaranty,
          security agreement, and financing statement (UCC-1), together with
          such other documents required by Agent or either of the Banks in form
          and substance satisfactory to Banks, executed by such entity,
          providing assurance to Banks that Banks' lien on all of Borrower's
          assets and the assets of Borrower's subsidiaries, affiliates and
          related entities is a first lien on all such assets."
               
     5.        The Collateral Release Agreement, the Loan Agreement, and the
     Amendment to Existing Security Documents remain unmodified and in full
     force and effect, except as otherwise amended hereby.

     This Amendment is executed as of the date first written above.

This Third Amendment to the Amended and Restated Commercial Loan Agreement 
("Third Amendment") is entered into by and between The Titan Corporation, a 
Delaware corporation ("Borrower"), Sumitomo Bank of California, a California 
banking corporation ("Sumitomo"), and Imperial Bank, a California banking 
corporation ("Imperial") (Sumitomo and Imperial are collectively referred to 
herein as the "Banks"), and Sumitomo in its capacity as agent for Sumitomo 
and Imperial ("Agent"), and is dated as of March 27, 1998.  Reference is 
hereby made to (1) that certain Amendment to Agreement Re Release of Certain 
Titan Information Systems Corporation Collateral dated as of February 25,

Agreement and Amendment to Existing Security Documents dated May 15, 1997.  
Any reference in the Amendment to Existing Security Documents to the Amended

                                     I. RECITALS

     A.        It is contemplated that Titan, or wholly-owned subsidiaries of
     Titan, will acquire one hundred percent (100%) of the common stock of
     Validity Corporation ("Validity"), and Horizons Technology, Inc.
     ("Horizons").  Banks have approved these acquisitions per the consent
     letter dated March 25, 1998.
     
     B.        In connection with these acquisitions, Borrower has requested
     that the Banks increase the Revolving Line of Credit to Thirty Million
     Dollars ($30,000,000).

     C.        The Banks are willing to grant this request on the terms and
     subject to the conditions set forth below.

                                   II. AMENDMENT
                                          
Now, therefore, it is hereby agreed by and between the parties hereto as
follows:

          1.   Paragraph 1.1(a) of the Loan Agreement is hereby restated in its
entirety as follows:

          1.1(a)    REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT.  During the Availability Period,
Banks will provide a line of credit (the "Revolving Line of Credit") to
Borrower.  The maximum amount of the Revolving Line of Credit including the
subline facility for letters of credit (the "Total Commitment") is Thirty
Million Dollars ($30,000,000).  Of the Total Commitment, Sumitomo's Commitment
is Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000) and Imperial's Commitment is Fifteen
Million Dollars ($15,000,000).  Upon execution of this Agreement, the respective
Commitments of the Banks shall be as set forth above.  Under no circumstances
shall any Bank be obligated to advance more than its particular Commitment.  The
respective Commitments of the Banks may be assigned pursuant to SECTION 9.1
hereof.  As used in this Agreement,


<PAGE>

"Pro Rata Share" means, as to any Bank at any time, the percentage equivalent 
(expressed as a decimal, rounded to the fifth decimal place) at such time of 
such Bank's Commitment DIVIDED BY the total Commitment of all Banks.  
Sumitomo's initial Pro Rata Share is 0.50 and Imperial's initial Pro Rata 
Share is 0.50.  Borrower's obligation to repay the Revolving Line of Credit 
is evidenced by two promissory notes (one in favor of Sumitomo and one in 
favor of Imperial) substantially in the forms of EXHIBITS A-1 AND A-2 
attached herewith (collectively, the "Revolving Line Notes").
          
          2.        Paragraph 1.2 is hereby restated in its entirety as follows:

          1.2       AVAILABILITY PERIOD.  The period under which Borrower may
draw on the Revolving line of Credit ("Availability Period") is between the date
of this Agreement and June 30, 1999 (the "Maturity Date"), unless Borrower is in
default, in which event Banks need not make any advances.

          3.        Paragraph 4.1(i) is hereby restated in its entirety as
                    follows:

     4.1(i)         RELEASE DOCUMENTS.  Within 5 business days of closing the
acquisitions of Validity Corporation and Horizons Technology, Inc., Agent shall
have received UCC-2 termination statements executed by the acquired companies'
secured parties, allowing for permitted liens under Paragraph 6.10, and such
other release documents as the Banks may require to release all liens in favor
of such parties with respect to all property covered by the Security Documents.

          4.        Paragraph 5.6 is amended only to the extent of replacing the
                    date "December 31, 1996" with "December 31, 1997".

          5.        Paragraph 6.2(e) is amended only to the extent of replacing
                    the number "30" in line two of that paragraph with "60".

          6.        Paragraph 6.3 is hereby restated in its entirety as follows:

          6.3       QUICK RATIO.  To maintain on a consolidated basis of the
                    last day of each quarter, a ratio of Quick Assets to current
                    liabilities of at least 1.05:1.00.  As used herein, "Quick
                    Assets" means cash, short-term cash investments, net trade
                    receivables and marketable securities not classified as
                    long-term investments.  For purposes of computing this
                    ratio, Current Liabilities shall include the outstanding
                    balance under the Revolving Line of Credit.

          7.        Paragraph 6.4 is hereby restated in its entirety as follows:

          6.4       NET WORTH.  To maintain on a consolidated basis as of the
                    last day of each calendar quarter, a Net Worth in an amount
                    at least equal to One Hundred and Three Million Dollars

                    Borrower's assets and the assets of Borrower's 
                    subsidiaries, affiliates and related entities is a first 
                    lien on all such assets (and, without limiting the 
                    foregoing, Agent and Banks may condition the transfer of 
                    any such assets on the execution and delivery of such

                    to no other financing statements, liens or other prior 
                    encumbrances of any nature whatsoever; and Borrower shall

                    security interests and liens of Agent and Banks with respect
                    to the assets of Borrower and all such subsidiaries,
                    affiliates and other related entities.

                    substantially concurrently with the execution of this
                    Agreement.

          18.       The Loan Agreement and the existing security documents
                    remain unmodified and in full force and effect, except as
                    otherwise amended hereby and the occurrence of any default
                    under this Amendment or the failure by Borrower to observe
                    or perform any term, covenant or agreement contained in this

                    execute each of the Amended Revolving Line Notes in favor of

                    discretion, waive):

               a.        Agent shall have received fully executed originals of
               this Third Amendment;

               indicated therein;

               c.        Borrower shall have paid all of the fees required in
               this Third Amendment, and any and all costs and expenses incurred
               by Agent, including without limitation reasonable attorneys'
               fees, in connection with this Third Amendment and the matters
               described herein; and

               and information to Agent as Agent reasonably requests.
