              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(A)       The  consolidated  condensed  financial  statements have been prepared
          from the accounts of SofTech,  Inc. and its wholly owned  subsidiaries
          (the "Company") without audit;  however, in the opinion of management,
          the  information  presented  reflects all  adjustments  which are of a
          normal recurring  nature and elimination of intercompany  transactions
          which are necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position
          and results of operations.

(B)       The  consolidated  financial  statements have been restated to reflect
          the  net  assets  and  operating  results  of  NSG  as a  discontinued
          operation. The assets and liabilities of NSG have been reclassified in
          the Consolidated in the Consolidated  Condensed  Balance Sheets as Net
          assets of discontinued  operations.  The operating  results of NSG and
          Government  Services  Division  ("GSD")  are shown net of taxes in the
          Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income as Loss from operations.

(D)       On September  12, 1996,  the Company  sold its Network  Systems  Group
          ("NSG") to Data Systems Network Corporation  ("DSN").  The Company had
          previously  announced  the  signing  of a letter of intent on June 18,
          1996.  Data  Systems  purchased  certain  assets and  assumed  certain
          liabilities  of NSG  with  a net  book  value  on  July  31,  1996  of
          approximately  $200,000 in exchange  for  $890,000 in cash and 540,000
          shares of DSN common  stock.  The  tangible  assets  acquired  totaled
          approximately $1.7 million and were primarily composed of fixed assets
          and  service  inventory  for  maintaining  the NSG  installed  base of
          hardware and software.  Liabilities  assumed included deferred revenue
          associated with maintenance  contracts and other accrued expenses with
          a total book value of about $1.5 million.  The agreement  provides for
          dollar for dollar adjustment based on the net book value of the assets
          as of the transaction date.


<PAGE>  6


          As is the custom in a transaction  such as this,  the Company  remains
          liable for  certain  breaches of  representations  made as part of the
          sale of this Group to DSN as detailed in the Purchase  Agreement filed
          wiht the Form 8-K on  September  23, 1996.  In  addition,  the Company
          remains liable as a guarantor for certain leases for NSG office space.

          Revenue from discontinued operations for the three months ended August
          31, 1996 and 1995 was $7,490,000 and $7,030,000, respectively.

          At August 31, 1996 and May 31,  1996,  the net assets of  discontinued
          operations,  which are included in the Consolidated  Condensed Balance
          Sheets, are as follows:

(E)       On September 20, 1995, the Company amended its Purchase Agreement with
          the stockholders of Micro Control,  Inc. ("Seller").  In consideration
          for the  Seller  waiving  their  right to receive  certain  contingent
          payments that may have been due if certain  profit goals were attained
          (see  Note J and  Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis  to the 1995
          Annual  Report which detail the potential  liabilities)  over the next
          two years, the Company made a cash payment to them totaling $426,497.

          The payment of $426,497 is composed of three  separate items which are
          as follows:
          *   $281,497 non-recoverable cash payment;
          *    an advance of $70,000 recoverable only against commissions earned
               through the sale of the CAD Division; and
          *    a $75,000 cash payment for  termination of the final two years of
               the building lease at the Pennsylvania facility owned by a Family
               Trust of which the Seller is a  Trustee.  In  addition,  a twelve
               (12) month option to buy out the period from  November 5, 1998 to
               November 4, 2000 for an  additional  cash  payment of $75,000 was
               extended  to the  Company.  This  option  was  not  exercised  in
               September 1996.


<PAGE>  7


          The  non-recoverable  cash  payment  and the lease buy out which total
          $356,497 was expensed to  operations  in the second  quarter of fiscal
          1996.  The  commission  advance was expensed in the fourth  quarter of
          fiscal 1996.

(F)       On August  13,  1996,  the  Company's  Board of  Directors  approved a
          preliminary  plan for  distributing the proceeds from the NSG sale and
          transitioning  management  and the  Board  of  Directors  ("Transition
          Plan"). The preliminary plans for the distribution of the net proceeds
          expected to be realized  from the proposed  sale of certain NSG assets
          and the  liquidation of the NSG balance sheet  primarily  involves the
          collection of  receivables,  sale of the North  Carolina  facility and
          payment of trade payables.  The plan  anticipates the  accumulation of
          the proceeds from the sale following the transaction, determination of
          the  amount  to  be   distributed   to  the  Company's   stockholders,
          establishment of a record date and completion of the distribution.  It
          is expected  that this can be completed in calendar  1996.  Sufficient
          resources  would be retained to fund the working  capital needs of the
          remaining CAD Division.

(G)       On September 16, 1996,  Norman Rasmussen  retired as President and CEO
          of SofTech,  Inc. and the Board of Directors  appointed Mark Sweetland
          to those positions.  Mr. Sweetland and Timothy  Weatherford,  a senior
          manager in the remaining  CAD Division,  were elected to the Company's
          Board of Directors.  These actions were contemplated by the Transition
          Plan and were  part of the  disclosure  in Note L to the  Consolidated
          Financial Statements included in the Company's 1996 Form 10-K.

                         SOFTECH, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations

         On  September  12, 1996 the Company  completed  the sale of its Network
Systems Group ("NSG"). An non-binding letter of intent had been signed with Data
Systems Network  Corporation on June 18, 1996 as was previously  announced.  The
results of the NSG business have been presented as a discontinued operation. The
NSG assets and liabilities have been  reclassified in the  Consolidated  Balance
Sheets as net assets of discontinued  operations.  The NSG operating results are
shown net of income  taxes in the  Consolidated  Statements  of  Operations  and
Retained  Earnings  under the caption  "Discontinued  operations".  The analysis
below is directed  primarily to the  continuing  operations.  This  treatment is
consistent with the presentation in the year end financials filed as part of the
Form 10-K submission for the year ended May 31, 1996.

         Total revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 1997 was $3.8 million, an
increase of 22% from the $3.1 million  generated in the first  quarter of fiscal
1996. Revenue from the sale of products (hardware and software) was $2.8 million
for Q1'97,  compared to $2.4 million for the first  quarter of fiscal  1996,  an
increase of 16%. Service revenue for Q1'97 was $966,000 and was $667,000 for the
first quarter of fiscal 1996, an increase of nearly 45%. Service revenue for the
first  quarter  of 1997 was 25.7% of total  revenue,  compared  to 21.7% for the
comparative period in fiscal 1996.

         Gross margin on products was 30.6% for the first quarter of fiscal 1997
compared to 29.5% for the first quarter of fiscal 1996. The Company would expect
to  experience  downward  pressure  on product  margins in the near term.  Gross
margin on service revenue was 24.5% in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 compared
to 20.2% for the same period in fiscal 1996. The improved  service  margins were
the result of the 45%  increase in service  revenue  with only a 17% increase in
service payroll.

         Selling,  general and  administrative  expense for the first quarter of
fiscal 1997 was $918,000, an increase of 4.2% from the first quarter fiscal 1996
spending of $881,000.  Selling expense increased nearly 25% in Q1'97 compared to
Q1'96 as a result of the 22% revenue  increase and the 29% overall  gross margin
increase.  Salaries and commissions  were responsible for most of that increase.
General & administrative  expense decreased nearly 6% in Q1'97 compared to Q1'96
due primarily to headcount reductions.

         Net income from  continuing  operations  was $173,000 or $.04 per share
for the first  quarter of fiscal 1997.  The Company  generated a loss of $36,000
from continuing operations in Q1 fiscal 1996, or $.01 per share.

         The Company expects to be sheltered from most if not all federal tax in
the  current  year  due  to  the  first  quarter  loss  and  utilization  of tax
carryforwards.   State  taxes  are  expected  to  be   allocated   primarily  to
discontinued operations.

         Through September 30, 1996, the core technology marketed by the Company
was an  offering  from  Parametric  Technology  Corporation  ("PTC").  Effective
October 1, 1996 the Company  began  marketing a new software  offering  from PTC
(see "Product Transition" in Company's 1996 Form 10-K filing).


<PAGE>  9


Discontinued Operations

         For the first  quarter of fiscal 1997,  the  Company's  NSG generated a
loss of $750,000 from operations,  $.18 per share. For the same period in fiscal
1996 the loss from operations of NSG was more than $1.1 million, $.28 per share.
As previously noted, the sale of NSG was completed  subsequent to the end of the
fiscal first quarter 1997.

         As is the custom in a  transaction  such as this,  the Company  remains
liable for certain breaches of representations  made as part of the sale of this
Group to DSN as detailed in the  Purchase  Agreement  filed wiht the Form 8-K on
September 23, 1996. In addition,  the Company  remains liable as a guarantor for
certain leases for NSG office space.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

         The Company  ended the first  quarter of fiscal 1997 with cash of about
$1.7  million,  a decrease of  approximately  $1.3  million from fiscal year end
1996.  The  net  loss  adjusted  for  non-cash  expenses  such as  goodwill  and
depeciation  was $440,000.  An increase in receivables  and inventory due to the
revenue increase utilized $541,000.  An increase in net assets from discontinued
operations utilized $390,000 primarily due to an increase in accounts receivable
related to the NSG.

         The Board of Directors approved a preliminary plan for the distribution
of the  net  proceeds  expected  to be  realized  from  the  sale of NSG and the
liquidation  of  the  NSG  balance  sheet,  see  Note L to  the  1996  Financial
Statements filed as part of the Form 10-K.

         The Company believes that the cash remaining in the business  following
the proposed  distribution,  together with the funds available under the line of
credit and cash  generated from  operations,  will be sufficient to meet working
capital needs for at least the next twelve months.
