(F)   NASDAQ COMPLIANCE

      The Company has been notified by the NASDAQ that it fails to meet several
      listing requirements for continued listing on the National Market System
      including failure to maintain a minimum closing bid price of at least
      $1.00 and failure to maintain the market value of the public float at a
      minimum of $5.0 million. In addition, the NASDAQ Staff has determined,
      that in its opinion, the debt conversion and the resulting share issuance
      in May 2000 as described in Note F to the Annual Report filed on Form 10-K
      for fiscal year 2000 and the appointments of two new Board members
      resulted in a change of control which requires shareholder approval. In
      that shareholder approval was not received prior to the debt conversion
      the NASDAQ Staff believes the Company has also violated that Marketplace
      Rule. These Staff determinations have previously been reported by the
      Company via press releases issued on December 19, 2000 and January 9,
      2001.

                                                                          Page 9

        NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

      In addition to the listing violations identified by the NASDAQ Staff, with
      the filing of this Form 10-Q, the Company has fallen below the $4.0
      million net tangible asset level that is required for continued listing on
      the National Market System.

      The Company requested a Hearing before the NASDAQ Qualifications Hearing
      Panel. This Hearing was held on January 11, 2001 and the Company had its
      opportunity to share with the Panel its plans to correct for each of its
      listing violations. The presentation included a specific course of action
      that had already begun and could be completed within the next two months
      aimed at correcting each of the violations identified above. The Company
      requested a stay of the delisting action from the National Market System
      for 75 days as these actions were completed. As an alternative, in the
      event whereby the Panel was unwilling to grant that short stay of
      delisting action, the company requested a contingent listing on the NASDAQ
      SmallCap market for a period of up to 90 days while actions were completed
      to correct for the $1.00 minimum bid deficiency.

      As of the date of this filing, the Company has not had any further
      communication with the NASDAQ Exchange. There can be no assurance that the
      NASDAQ will grant either of the Company's requests. In the event whereby
      the Exchange does take this delisting action the Company will seek to have
      its shares listed on an alternative exchange.

(G)   SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

      On January 16, 2001, the Company signed a settlement agreement with Data
      Systems Network Corporation ("DSN") to resolve all disputes and to end the
      previously postponed Arbitration Hearing. This dispute which arose out of
      the sale of the Company's Network Systems Group to DSN in 1996, was more
      fully described in Note I to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal
      2000. The settlement had no material impact on operating results for the
      three and six month periods ended November 30, 2000.

      Subsequent to quarter end, the Company entered into a Letter of Intent
      ("LOI") to sell all of the net assets of its Computer Aided Manufacturing
      ("CAM") business to a technology company based outside of the United
      States. Included in the net assets of the CAM business are the Prospector,
      ToolDesigner, ExpertCad and ExpertCam technologies. The CAM business
      generated revenue of about $4.5 million in fiscal 2000 and $2.3 for the
      first six months of fiscal 2001. The purchase price was established at
      $4.5 million in cash and marketable securities and is anticipated to close
      within the next few months. Under the terms of the LOI, no significant
      gain or loss is expected to result from the disposition of net assets.
      There can be no assurance, however, that the transaction as contemplated
      in the LOI will be completed in this timeframe or at all. In the event
      whereby this transaction is not completed it is the Company's intent to
      sell this operating unit in order to generate liquidity and reduce debt
      load consistent with the decision of the Company's Board of Directors as
      described in MD&A.

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

      Recent Business Developments

      The Company's Board of Directors has agreed upon a plan whereby the
      Company will seek a buyer for its Computer Aided Manufacturing ("CAM")
      business. The CAM Business is a stand-alone operating unit with technology
      aimed at the Mold & Die industry. The products include Prospector,
      ToolDesigner, ExpertCAD and ExpertCAM. This Business generated revenue
      from the licensing of the above technologies and services of approximately
      $4.5 million in fiscal 2000 and $2.3 million for the first half of fiscal
      2001.

      It is expected that the proceeds from the sale of the CAM Business will
      have a positive impact on the Company's liquidity and will improve its
      chances of realizing its two very large market opportunities in the CAD
      business, namely Cadra as a replacement for the MICROCADAM users and
      DesignGateway. These two opportunities were detailed in the Company's
      Annual Report on Form 10-K, in Item 1 under the caption "Products and
      Services". In addition, the resulting focus on the CAD and Product Data
      Management ("PDM") marketplace is expected to improve our product
      development efforts and the effectiveness of our sales and marketing
      personnel.

      Results of Operations

      Total revenue for the three and six-month periods ended November 30, 2000
      was approximately $3.1 million and $7.7 million, respectively, as compared
      to $5.5 million and $12.9 million, respectively, for the same periods in
      the prior fiscal year. This represents a decrease from fiscal 2000 to
      fiscal 2001 of $2.4 million or 43.0% and $5.2 million or 40.7% for the
      three and six month periods, respectively. Product revenue decreased by
      approximately $1.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2001 as
      compared to the same period in the prior year or about 61.7% and decreased
      by about $3.4 million or 48.6% for the six month period. Service revenue
      decreased by about $500,000 or 20.2% in the second quarter of fiscal 2001
      as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2000 and by about $1.9 million
      or 31.5% for the six month period.

      The Company made a strategic decision at the end of fiscal 1999 to focus
      its resources on marketing its technology first and foremost and to limit
      its service offerings as much as possible to high margin consulting
      projects, training services on its proprietary software and software
      maintenance. The decision was based on the fact that the margins on third
      party hardware and software and design service projects to be performed by
      less experienced mechanical engineers were under continued downward
      pressure in a very competitive marketplace and it was anticipated that
      this trend would continue. The cost attendant with marketing and
      supporting other companies' technologies and performing under the above
      described design projects in this type of environment precluded the
      Company from continuing these activities profitably. Approximately half of
      the revenue decline from the first half of fiscal 2000 compared to the
      same period in fiscal 2001 can be attributed to this decision to exit the
      reseller and low margin service business.

      Product revenue is composed of license revenue from the sale of the
      Company's software technology and revenue from the sale of third party
      hardware and software technology. Revenue from the licensing of the
      Company's software technology during the three and six months ended
      November 30, 2000 was $1.1 million and $3.3 million, respectively, as
      compared to $2.6 million and $5.4 million for the same periods in the
      prior fiscal year. The product revenue declines experienced in the first
      half of fiscal year 2001 as compared to the same period in fiscal 2000
      have been dramatic. North American Cadra sales are responsible for
      approximately $1.5 million of the $2.1 million decline in the year over
      year comparison. The revenue contributions expected for fiscal 2001 from
      the sale of Cadra to MicroCadam users as described in Item 1 of the fiscal
      2000 Annual Report on Form 10K under the caption "Products and Services"
      have not yet materialized. The market opportunity we anticipated for our
      DesignGateway technology continues to develop but at a much slower pace
      than expected. Revenue from the sale of third party hardware and software
      during the three and six months ended November 30, 2000 was $40,000 and
      $240,000, respectively, as compared to $0.4 million and

                                                                         Page 11

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

      $1.6 million in the same periods in fiscal 2000. The Company expects that
      the revenue from hardware and third party software sales will continue to
      shrink as the Company continues to focus on marketing its technology.

      Service revenue is composed of software maintenance on our proprietary
      software, maintenance sold on 3rd party hardware and software and revenue
      generated from services performed by our engineers. For the three and six
      month periods ended November 30, 2000 software maintenance revenue on our
      proprietary technology was $1.8 million and $3.6 million, respectively, as
      compared to $1.9 million and $4.1 million for the same periods in the
      prior fiscal year. Service revenue generated from the engineering services
      group during the three and six-month periods ended November 30, 2000 was
      $170,000 and $300,000, respectively, as compared to $600,000 and $1.5
      million for the same periods in the prior fiscal year.

      Product gross margin for the three and six month periods ended November
      30, 2000 was $1.0 million and $3.2 million, respectively, as compared to
      $2.7 million and $5.5 million for the same periods in fiscal 2000. Gross
      margin as a percent of revenue for the three and six-month periods ended
      November 30, 2000 was 87.5% and 90.3%, respectively, as compared to 87.3%
      and 79.6% for the same periods in fiscal 2000. The gross margin generated
      on service revenue for the three and six- month periods ended November 30,
      2000 was 82.5% and 81.5%, respectively, as compared to about 73.8% and
      72.6% for the same periods in fiscal 2000. Overall gross margin as a
      percent of revenue increased to 84.3% and 85.6%, respectively, for the
      three and six month periods ended November 30, 2000 as compared to 81.2%
      and 76.4% for the same periods of fiscal 2000. The improvement in gross
      margin as a percent of revenue in the first half of the current fiscal
      year as compared to the first half of fiscal 2000 is a direct result of a
      larger component of revenue coming from the sale of the Company's
      technology rather than selling other companies' hardware and software and
      focusing on high margin service opportunities as detailed above.

      Research and development expenditures for the three and six month periods
      ended November 30, 2000 were $1.3 million and $2.6 million, respectively,
      as compared to $1.2 million and $2.7 million for the same periods in the
      prior fiscal year. It is expected that the quarterly expenditures will be
      somewhat constant for the remainder of fiscal 2001.

      Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six month
      periods ended November 30, 2000 were $2.3 million and $5.1 million,
      respectively, as compared to $2.7 million and $6.0 million for the same
      periods in fiscal 2000. This represents a decrease of 14.6% and 14.4% for
      the three and six-month periods ended November 30, 2000 as compared to the
      same periods in the prior fiscal year. The reduced spending in SG&A in the
      first half of fiscal 2001 as compared to the same period in fiscal 2000 is
      due to headcount reductions related to the refocusing detailed above.

      Interest expense for the first half of fiscal year 2001 was $637,000 as
      compared to approximately $729,000 for the same period in the prior fiscal
      year, a decrease of approximately 13%. The decrease is the result of the
      debt to equity conversions that took place during the second half of
      fiscal 2000 that reduced our average borrowing in the first half of fiscal
      2001 relative to the same period in fiscal 2000.

      Net loss for the three and six month periods ended November 30, 2000 was
      $(1,261,000) or $(0.12) per share and $(1,725,000) or $(0.16) per share,
      respectively, as compared to net income of $210,000 or $0.03 per share and
      $358,000 or $0.04 per share for the same periods in the prior fiscal year.

      Capital Resources and Liquidity

      The Company ended the first half of fiscal 2001 with cash of approximately
      $565,000, a decrease of $713,000 from year-end 2000. Operating activities
      used approximately $1.7 million of cash during the first six months of
      fiscal 2001. The net reduction of billed and unbilled accounts receivable
      generated cash of approximately $0.7 million, while reductions in
      liabilities used approximately $1.0 million and deferred maintenance
      revenue was reduced by approximately $1.1 million. Financing activities

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
            FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

      provided approximately $1.0 million during the first half of fiscal 2001
      through additional net borrowings from the senior debt facility.

      Subsequent to quarter end, the Company entered into a Letter of Intent
      ("LOI") to sell all of the net assets of its Computer Aided Manufacturing
      ("CAM") business to a technology company based outside of the United
      States. Included in the net assets of the CAM business are the Prospector,
      ToolDesigner, ExpertCad and ExpertCam technologies. The CAM business
      generated revenue of about $4.5 million in fiscal 2000 and $2.3 million
      for the first six months of fiscal 2001. The purchase price was
      established at $4.5 million in cash and marketable securities and is
      anticipated to close within the next few months. In the event whereby this
      transaction is not completed it is the Company's intent to sell this
      operating unit in order to generate liquidity and reduce debt load
      consistent with the decision of the Company's Board of Directors as
      described above.

      The Company believes that the cash on hand together with cash flow from
      operations and its available borrowings under its credit facility will be
      sufficient for meeting its liquidity and capital resource needs for the
      next year. At November 30, 2000, the Company had available borrowings on
      its line of credit of approximately $3,060,000.

      The statements made above with respect to SofTech's outlook for fiscal
      2001 and beyond represent "forward looking statements" within the meaning
      of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the
      Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 and are subject to a number of risks
      and uncertainties. These include, among other risks and uncertainties,
      general business and economic conditions, generating sufficient cash flow
      from operations to fund working capital needs, continued integration of
      acquired entities, potential obsolescence of the Company's CAD and CAM
      technologies, potential unfavorable outcome to existing litigation,
      maintaining existing relationships with the Company's lenders, remaining
      in compliance with debt covenants, successful introduction and market
      acceptance of planned new products and the ability of the Company to
      attract and retain qualified personnel both in our existing markets and in
      new territories in an extremely competitive environment.
