Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. In the opinion of the management of FileNET Corporation ("the Company"),
the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to
present fairly the financial position of the Company at September 30, 1998
and the results of its operations, its comprehensive income and its cash
flows for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1998 and
1997. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), although the
Company believes that the disclosures in the consolidated financial
statements are adequate to ensure the information presented is not
misleading. These consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto,
and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 1997 and the Company's Quarterly Reports on
Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31 and June 30, 1998. The results of
operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the
operating results for the year.
2. In May 1998, the Company effected a two-for-one split of its common stock.
All references in the consolidated financial statements to number of shares
and per share amounts of the Company's common stock have been restated to
reflect the split.
3. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year's consolidated
financial statements to conform with the current year's presentation.
4. The following table is a reconciliation of the earnings and share amounts
used in the calculation of basic earnings per share and diluted earnings
per share for the three and six-month periods ended September 30, 1998.

5. In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income." SFAS No. 130 requires enterprises to report
comprehensive income and its components in general-purpose financial
statements. SFAS No. 130 is effective for the Company beginning January 1,
1998. Accordingly, the Company has prepared Statements of Comprehensive
Income for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1998 and
1997 (restatement of prior year financial statements is required by SFAS
No. 130). Accumulated other comprehensive income as of September 30, 1998
is comprised of the following:

================= ================= ==================
</TABLE>
6. In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of
an Enterprise and Related Information" which is effective for the year
ending December 31, 1998. The Company has not yet determined the impact, if
any, of adopting this standard on its financial statements.
In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities," which is effective for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 1999. SFAS 133 will require the Company to record
all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. For derivatives that
are hedges, changes in the fair value of derivatives will be offset by the
change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm
commitments. The Company has not yet determined the impact, if any, of
adopting this standard on its financial statements.
7. In October 1994, Wang Laboratories, Inc. (Wang) filed a complaint in the
United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts alleging
that the Company is infringing five patents held by Wang (the FileNET
Case). On June 23, 1995, Wang amended its complaint to include an
additional related patent. On July 2, 1996, Wang filed a complaint in the
same court alleging that Watermark, formerly a wholly-owned subsidiary that
was merged into the Company, is infringing three of the same patents
asserted in the initial complaint (the Watermark Case). On October 9, 1996,
Wang withdrew its claim in the FileNET Case that one of the patents it
initially asserted is infringed by the Company's products that were
commercialized before the initial complaint was filed. Wang reserved the
right to assert that patent against the Company's products commercialized
after that date in a separate lawsuit.
In March 1997, Eastman Kodak Company (Kodak) purchased the Wang imaging
business unit that has responsibility for this litigation. The patents in
the suit have been transferred to a Kodak subsidiary, Kodak Limited of
England, which, in turn, has exclusively licensed them to another Kodak
subsidiary, Eastman Software, Inc. in the United States (Eastman). On July
30, 1997, the court permitted Eastman and Kodak Limited of England to be
substituted in the litigation in place of Wang.
FileNET has moved for summary judgment on noninfringement as to each of the
five patents in the suit, and for summary judgment of invalidity as to one
of the patents. Eastman moved for summary judgment as to FileNET's
unenforceability defense on one of the patents. A trial date has not been
set.
If it should be determined that the patents at issue in the litigation are
valid and are infringed by any of the Company's products the Company will,
depending on the product, redesign the infringing product or seek to obtain
a license to market the product. There can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to obtain such a license on acceptable terms. Based on the
Company's analysis of these patents and their respective file histories,
the Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to claims at issue;
however, the ultimate outcome or any resulting potential loss cannot be
determined at this time.
On December 20, 1996, plaintiff Michael I. Goldman filed a class action
complaint against the Company and certain of its officers and directors in
the Superior Court of California, County of Orange (the Goldman State
Action). The action was purportedly filed on behalf of a class of
purchasers of the Company's common stock during the period October 19, 1995
through July 2, 1996. The plaintiff alleges that the Company and other
defendants violated Cal. Corp. Code ss.ss. 25400 and 25500, Cal. Civ. Code
ss.ss. 1709-1710 and Cal. Bus. & Prof. Code ss.ss. 17200 et seq. in
connection with various public statements made by the Company and certain
of its officers and directors during the putative class period. On
September 30, 1998, the Court entered an order dismissing this action
without prejudice.
On April 1, 1997, plaintiff Michael I. Goldman filed another class action
complaint against the Company and certain of its officers and directors in
the United States District Court for the Central District of California
(the Goldman Federal Action). The action purportedly was filed on behalf of
the same class of purchasers of the Company's common stock as the Goldman
State Action. The allegations contained in the Goldman Federal Action are
very similar to the allegations contained in the Goldman State Action,
except that the Goldman Federal Action asserts claims under Sections 10(b)
and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5On September 23,
1998, the Court entered an order dismissing this action in its entirety
without prejudice.
On October 23, 1998, plaintiff Avram Gart filed a class action complaint
against the Company and certain of its officers and directors in the
Superior Court of California, County of Orange (the Gart State Action). The
action was purportedly filed on behalf of a class of purchasers of the
Company's common stock during the period January 13, 1998 through October
7, 1998. The plaintiff alleges that the Company and the other defendants
violated Cal. Corp. Code ss.ss. 25400 and 25500 in connection with various
public statements made by the Company and certain of its officers and
directors during the putative class period. The complaint seeks unspecified
compensatory damages, rescission, interest, attorneys' fees, expert witness
fees and costs, and equitable or injunctive relief. The Company has not
been served with the complaint.
On October 27, 1998, plaintiff Thomas P. Nyquist filed a class action
complaint against the Company and certain of its officers and directors in
the United States District Court for the Central District of California
(the Nyquist Federal Action). The action was purportedly filed on behalf of
a class of purchasers of the Company's common stock during the period April
16, 1998 through October 7, 1998. The plaintiff alleges claims under
Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 in
connection with various public statements made by the Company and certain
of its officers and directors during the putative class period. The
complaint seeks unspecified compensatory damages, interest, attorneys'
fees, expert witness fees and costs.
The Company believes that all of the allegations contained in the Gart
State Action and the Nyquist Federal Action are without merit and intends
to defend the actions vigorously.
The Company, in the normal course of business, is subject to various other
legal matters. While the results of litigation and claims cannot be
predicted with certainty, the Company believes that the final outcome of
these other matters will not have a material adverse effect on the
Company's consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

========== ========== ========== ===========
</TABLE>
Software revenue from the licensing of the Company's software products increased
4% and 41% for the three and nine month periods, respectively, ended September
30, 1998 over the comparable periods of 1997. The increases were primarily
attributable to an increase in the volume of product shipments, including the
Company's Panagon product line which was released during the first quarter of
1998. Revenue in the third quarter of 1998 was impacted negatively by reduced
add-on sales of the Company's Image Management System (IMS) line of products.
The magnitude of the increase in year to date revenue over 1997 is partially
attributable to weakness in orders during the first quarter of 1997 and is not
indicative of future revenue growth.
Service revenue consists of revenue from software maintenance services,
professional services, training, repairs and supplies. Service revenue increased
26% and 27% for the three and nine month periods, respectively, ended September
30, 1998 over the comparable periods of 1997. The increases were attributable to
increased maintenance revenue due to the growth of the Company's installed base
and to increased demand for the Company's professional service offerings.
10
Hardware revenue is generated primarily from the sale of 12-inch optical storage
and retrieval libraries (OSARs) and third-party hardware. Hardware revenue
decreased by 18% and 15% for the three and nine month periods, respectively,
ended September 30, 1998 from the comparable periods of 1997 primarily due to
decreases in new orders experienced both domestically and internationally and
the Company's focus on increasing its higher margin software revenues. The
Company expects hardware revenue to continue to decline in both absolute dollars
and as a percentage of total revenues as it continues to transition its business
toward software and service-related revenue.
International revenues constituted approximately 31% and 32% of total revenues
in the three month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. For
the nine month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, international revenues
constituted approximately 31% and 29% of total revenues, respectively. The
increases in the proportion of international revenues for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 is attributable to the higher level of growth experienced
internationally. A portion of this growth is attributable to weakness in
international orders during the first quarter of 1997 and is not indicative of
future international revenue growth. Management expects that the Company's
international operations will continue to account for a significant portion of
total revenues. However, the ongoing global economic crisis could adversely
affect international revenues. In addition, international revenues could be
adversely affected if the U.S. dollar strengthens against international
currencies.

</TABLE>
The cost of software revenue includes royalties paid to third parties and the
cost of software distribution. The cost of software revenue as a percentage of
software revenue for the three months ended September 30, 1998 increased to 13%
from 11% for the comparable period in 1997. The increase was primarily due to
increased third party royalty costs. The cost of software revenue as a
percentage of software revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 1998
decreased to 10% from 12% for the comparable period in 1997. The decrease is
primarily attributable to the low revenue levels in the first quarter of 1997
without a corresponding decrease in fixed distribution costs. Also contributing
to the decrease was the fact that software localization costs which were
classified as cost of revenue in 1997 have been classified as research and
development in 1998.
The cost of service revenue includes software support and professional services
personnel, supplies, and the cost of third-party hardware maintenance. The cost
of service revenue as a percentage of service revenue for the three month period
ended September 30, 1998 increased to 63% from 59% in the comparable period of
1997. The increase is attributable to the higher proportion of lower margin
professional services in the service revenue mix.
The cost of hardware revenue includes the cost of manufacturing OSARs,
third-party purchased hardware and the cost of hardware integration personnel.
The cost of hardware revenue as a percentage of hardware revenue for the three
month period ended September 30, 1998 decreased to 58% from 78% for the
comparable period of 1997. For the nine month period ended September 30, 1998,
cost of hardware revenue decreased to 52% from 69% for the comparable period of
1997. These decreases were due to improved product mix and a reduction in fixed
manufacturing costs.

</TABLE>
Research and development expenses increased 34% and 26% for the three and nine
month periods ended September 30, 1998, respectively, compared to the comparable
periods of 1997. The increases were due to a general increase in salaries and
recruiting costs necessitated by the intense competitive environment for
software engineers; increase in cost of contract developers; and the inclusion
of software localization costs in research and development in 1998. As a
percentage of total revenue, research and development expenses increased to 18%
for the three month period ended September 30, 1998 from 15% for the comparable
period of 1997. The increase was attributable to lower revenue growth rates in
the third quarter of 1998. As a percentage of total revenue, research and
development expenses decreased to 16% for the nine month period ended September
30, 1998 from 17% for the comparable period of 1997. This decrease is primarily
attributable to the effects of the lower revenue levels in the first quarter of
1997.
The Company expects that competition for qualified technical personnel will
remain intense for the foreseeable future and may result in higher levels of
compensation expense for the Company. The Company believes that research and
development expenditures, including compensation of technical personnel, are
essential to maintaining its competitive position and expects these costs to
continue to constitute a significant percentage of revenues.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 34% and 26% for the three
and nine month periods ended September 30, 1998, respectively, compared to the
comparable periods of 1997. This increase was primarily due to overall increases
in salaries, higher sales incentive compensation due to increased revenues a
change in the sales channel mix, and increased marketing program costs. As a
percentage of total revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses
increased to 57% for the three months ended September 30, 1998 from 47% for the
comparable period of 1997 primarily due to sales productivity growing at a
lesser rate than sales related expenses.
Provision for Income Taxes The Company's combined federal, state and foreign
annual effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 was 29%
(expense) compared to 28% (benefit) for the comparable period in 1997.
Foreign Currency Fluctuations and Inflation The Company's performance can be
affected by changes in foreign currency values relative to the U.S. dollar in
relation to the Company's revenue and operating expenses. The impact to net
income from foreign exchange transactions and hedging activities is immaterial
for all periods reported. As of September 30, 1998, the Company had forward
exchange contracts outstanding totaling approximately $5 million in 11
currencies. All of these contracts mature in three months.
Other comprehensive income for the three and nine month periods ended September
30, 1998 reflects decreases of $2,238,000 and $1,580,000, respectively, in the
unrealized loss due to foreign currency translation. These decreases were
primarily attributable to unrealized gains associated with the strengthening of
the Irish currency against the U.S. dollar during the respective periods.
Management believes that inflation has not had a significant impact on the
prices of the Company's products, the cost of its materials, or its operating
results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997.
Other Financial Instruments The Company enters into forward foreign exchange
contracts as a hedge against effects of fluctuating currency exchange rates on
monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the
functional currency of the relevant entity. The Company is exposed to market
risk on the forward exchange contracts as a result of changes in foreign
exchange rates; however, the market risk should be offset by changes in the
valuation of the underlying exposures. Gains and losses on these contracts,
which equal the difference between the forward contract rate and the prevailing
market spot rate at the time of valuation, are recognized in the consolidated
statement of operations. The counterparties to these instruments are major
financial institutions. The Company uses commercial rating agencies to evaluate
the credit quality of the counterparties, and the Company does not anticipate a
loss resulting from any credit risk of these institutions.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 1998, combined cash, cash equivalents and short- and long-term
marketable securities totaled $82.3 million, an increase of $10.5 million from
the end of 1997. Cash provided by operating activities during the nine months
ended September 30, 1998 totaled $18.7 million and resulted primarily from an
increase in unearned maintenance revenue related to growth in the Company's
installed base; and additions to net income for depreciation and amortization
expense. Cash used by investing activities totaled $9.2 million and was a result
of capital expenditures offset by sales and maturities of marketable securities.
Cash provided by financing activities totaled $8.4 million and was a result of
proceeds received from the exercise of employee stock options and purchases
under the employee stock purchase plan offset by the repurchase of 139,000
shares of the Company's common stock.
Accounts receivable increased to $62.1 million at September 30, 1998 from $61.3
million at December 31, 1997. Days sales outstanding increased to 79 days as of
September 30, 1998 from 72 days as of December 31, 1997. The increase is
attributable to slower payments being experienced internationally and in the
Company's reseller channel. Current liabilities increased to $70.3 million at
September 30, 1998 from $60.6 million at December 31, 1997. The increase in
current liabilities is primarily a result of increases in accounts payable,
accrued incentive compensation, unearned maintenance revenue and cooperative
marketing cost accruals.
The Company has a $20 million unsecured line of credit with a commercial bank.
This line of credit expires in May 1999 and is subject to the maintenance of
certain financial covenants. The Company also has several borrowing arrangements
with foreign banks which expire at various times during 1998 under which the
Company may borrow approximately $2 million. As of September 30, 1998, there
were no borrowings outstanding against any of the Company's credit lines.
During the first quarter of 1998, the Company repurchased $4.4 million of its
common stock, thereby completing its previously announced $10 million stock
repurchase program.
The Company anticipates that its present cash balances together with internally
generated funds and credit lines will be sufficient to meet its working capital
and capital expenditure needs for at least the next twelve months.
Other Matters
Year 2000 With the approach of the year 2000, the Company recognized that
significant issues could arise in connection with the computer software products
it licenses and the internal business systems which are essential to its
operations. As a result, the Company implemented a year 2000 Integrity Program
("the Program") in 1997 to ensure that the Company's computer software products
and internal business systems will function properly in the year 2000 and
thereafter. The Program as it relates to the software products licensed by the
Company includes year 2000 compliance testing and certification of certain
existing software products. All new generations of the Company's software
products will be released as year 2000 compliant. Not all current software
products of the Company are year 2000 compliant and the Company does not plan to
make them so. Upgraded, year 2000 compliant versions of such software products
are being made available to customers and resellers who will then bear the
responsibility for installing the upgraded software product in order to make
their systems year 2000 compliant. Some of the Company's customers are running
software product versions that are not year 2000 compliant. The Company has been
encouraging such customers to migrate to current software product versions. It
is possible that the Company may experience increased expenses in addressing
migration issues for such customers. The Company's customer support organization
initiated a program, Customer Service Profile 2000, to review the status of each
Company's product currently installed at a customer location and it provided the
same diagnostics to its resellers for their use at their customer locations.
Customers who have support agreements with the Company have been directly
informed as to whether or not the particular software products they have
installed are year 2000 compliant. All customers are kept informed of the
release of year 2000 compliant updates and upgrades via the Company's web site.
Risks from the inability of any of the Company's software products to properly
manage and manipulate data in the year 2000 could result in increased warranty
costs, customer satisfaction issues, potential lawsuits and other costs and
liabilities, as well as customers being unable to run software licensed from the
Company and incurring significant costs from the resultant business
interruption. Demand for the Company's software products could be adversely
impacted to the extent customers and potential customers are temporarily
distracted by their year 2000 remediation efforts, as it competes for
information technology resources that have been diverted for such remedial
efforts which may have higher priority than implementing document management
systems.
The Company has also initiated communications with its significant third party
vendors of computer software with which the Company's systems interface or upon
whom the Company's software products depend, in order to coordinate efforts with
these outside third parties to minimize the extent to which its business will be
vulnerable to such third parties' failure to remediate their own year 2000
issues. Although the Company's compliance testing utilizes the embedded
third-party software as an essential part of its software being tested, the
Program does not include certification of customer-developed applications which
run on the Company's software products or third-party software which is
incorporated in the Company's software products. Customers and third-party
vendors will remain directly responsible for year 2000 compliance testing of
their software.
The Program also includes a review of all internal systems for year 2000
compliance. The Company's significant business systems (financial, operational,
customer support) are under review and are either currently year 2000 compliant
or will be upgraded and/or replaced so as to be year 2000 compliant by July
1999. All of the hardware and software deployed in the Company's technical
infrastructure is either fully year 2000 compliant or is scheduled to be
replaced with year 2000 compliant components by the end of 1998. The Company is
also evaluating its environmental systems (heating, air conditioning, security)
and intends to make all such systems year 2000 compliant by the end of 1998. To
the extent possible, the Company will be developing and executing contingency
plans designed to allow continued operation in the event of failure of the
Company's or third parties' systems. For those business, infrastructure and
environmental systems that are to be upgraded in order to achieve year 2000
compliance, the majority were already scheduled for upgrade for other business
reasons and any additional implementation costs directly associated with the
year 2000 problem are not material.
Although the Company is not aware of any material operational issues or costs
associated with preparing its software products and internal systems for the
year 2000, there can be no assurance that there will not be a delay in, or
increased costs associated with, the implementation of the necessary systems and
changes to address the year 2000 issues, and the Company's inability to
implement such systems and changes could have an adverse effect on future
results of operations. The costs of the Company's year 2000 project and the date
on which the Company believes it will be completed are based on management's
best estimates and include assumptions regarding third party modification plans.
However, in particular due to the potential impact of third party modification
plans, there can be no assurance that these estimates will be achieved and
actual results could differ materially from those anticipated.
The foregoing statements are based upon management's best estimates at the
present time, which were derived utilizing numerous assumptions of future
events, including the continued availability of certain resources, third party
modification plans and other factors. There can be no guarantee that these
estimates will be achieved and actual results could differ materially from those
anticipated. Specific factors that might cause such material differences
include, but are not limited to, the nature and amount of programming required
to upgrade or replace each of the affected programs, and the success of the
Company's external customers, resellers and vendors and suppliers in addressing
the year 2000 issue.
The EURO Conversion On January 1, 1999, eleven of the fifteen member countries
of the European Union are scheduled to establish fixed conversion rates between
their existing sovereign currencies and the EURO. These countries have agreed to
adopt the EURO as their common legal currency on that date. The EURO will then
trade on currency exchanges and be available for non-cash transactions. These
countries will issue sovereign debt exclusively in EURO and will re-denominate
outstanding sovereign debt. Effective on this date, these countries will no
longer control their own monetary policies by directing independent interest
rate for the legacy currencies. Instead, the authority to direct monetary
policy, including money supply and official interest rates for the EURO, will be
exercised by the new European Central Bank.
Following introduction of the EURO, the legacy currencies are scheduled to
remain legal tender in these countries as a denomination of the EURO between
January 1, 1999 and January 1, 2002 (the "transition period"). During the
transition period, public and private parties may pay for goods and services
using either the EURO or the country's legacy currency on a "no compulsion, no
prohibition" basis. However, conversion rates no longer will be computed
directly from one legacy currency to another. Instead, a "triangulation" process
will be applied whereby an amount denominated in one legacy currency first will
be converted into an amount denominated in EURO, and the resultant
EURO-denominated amount is converted into the second legacy currency.
The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact the conversion to the
EURO will have on its financial condition and results of operations. Based on
this evaluation to date, the Company currently does not believe there will be a
material impact on its financial condition or results of operations as a result
of the EURO conversion, except that the Company cannot currently assess the
impact that a common EURO-based price list will have on how it markets its
products in Europe nor the impact, if any, on revenues generated in Europe.
Environmental Matters The Company is not aware of any issues related to
environmental matters that have, or are expected to, materially affect its
business.
Factors That May Affect Future Results
The Company's business, financial condition, operating results and prospects can
be impacted by a number of factors, including but not limited to those set forth
below and elsewhere in this report, any one of which could cause the Company's
actual results to differ materially from recent results or from the Company's
anticipated future results.
Rapid Technological Change; Product Development The market for the Company's
products is characterized by rapid technological developments, evolving industry
standards, changes in customer requirements and frequent new product
introductions and enhancements. The Company's continued success will be
dependent upon its ability to continue to enhance its existing products, develop
and introduce, in a timely manner, new products incorporating technological
advances and respond to customer requirements, including without limitation
enhancements to certain specified Company software products to achieve year 2000
compliance. The Company could experience difficulties or delays in developing
and introducing new products or integrating some or all of the technologies and
products from acquisitions, with the technologies and products from the Company.
Delays in or non-completion of the development of newly integrated products, or
lack of market acceptance of such products, could have an adverse impact on the
Company's future results of operations and result in a failure to realize the
anticipated benefits of the acquisitions. To the extent one or more of the
Company's competitors introduce products that more fully address customer
requirements, the Company's business could be adversely affected. There can be
no assurance that the Company will be successful in developing and marketing
enhancements to its existing products or new products on a timely basis or that
any new or enhanced products will adequately address the changing needs of the
marketplace. If the Company is unable to develop and introduce new products or
enhancements to existing products in a timely manner in response to changing
market conditions or customer requirements including without limitation
enhancements to certain existing software products to achieve year 2000
compliance, the Company's business and operating results could be adversely
affected. From time to time, the Company or its competitors may announce new
products, capabilities or technologies that have the potential to replace or
shorten the life cycles of the Company's existing products. There can be no
assurance that announcements of currently planned or other new products will not
cause customers to delay their purchasing decisions in anticipation of such
products, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business
and operating results.
Uncertainty Of Future Operating Results; Fluctuations In Quarterly Operating
Results Prior growth rates in the Company's revenue and operating results should
not necessarily be considered indicative of future growth or operating results.
Future operating results will depend upon many factors, including the demand for
the Company's products, the effectiveness of the Company's efforts to continue
to integrate various products it has developed or acquired through acquisition
of others and to achieve the desired levels of sales from such product
integration, the level of product and price competition, the length of the
Company's sales cycle, improvements in the productivity of the Company's sales
force, seasonality of individual customer buying patterns, the size and timing
of individual transactions, the delay or deferral of customer implementations,
the budget cycles of the Company's customers, the timing of new product
introductions and product enhancements by the Company and its competitors, the
mix of sales by products, services and distribution channels, levels of
international sales, acquisitions by competitors, changes in foreign currency
exchange rates including EURO exchange rates beginning in 1999, the ability of
the Company to develop and market new products and control costs, and general
domestic and international economic and political conditions. As a result of
these factors, revenues and operating results for any quarter are subject to
variation and are not predictable with any significant degree of accuracy.
Therefore, the Company believes that period-to-period comparisons of its results
of operations are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as
indications of future performance. Moreover, such factors could cause the
Company's operating results in a given quarter to be below the expectations of
public market analysts and investors. In either case, the price of the Company's
common stock could be materially adversely affected.
Competition The document imaging, workflow, computer output to laser disk and
document management software markets are highly competitive, and there are
certain competitors of the Company with substantially greater sales, marketing,
development and financial resources. The Company believes that the competitive
factors affecting the market for its products and services include vendor and
product reputation; product quality, performance and price; the availability of
products on multiple platforms; product scalability; product integration with
other enterprise applications; product functionality and features; product
ease-of-use; and the quality of customer support services and training. The
relative importance of each of these factors depends upon the specific customer
involved. While the Company believes it competes favorably in each of these
areas, there can be no assurance that it will continue to do so. Moreover, the
Company's present or future competitors may be able to develop products
comparable or superior to those offered by the Company, offer lower priced
products or adapt more quickly than the Company to new technologies or evolving
customer requirements. Competition is expected to intensify. In order to be
successful in the future, the Company must respond to technological change,
customer requirements and competitors' current products and innovations. There
can be no assurance that it will be able to continue to compete effectively in
its market or that future competition will not have a material adverse effect on
its business, operating results and financial condition.
Intellectual Property and Other Proprietary Rights The Company's success depends
in part on its ability to protect its proprietary rights to the technologies
used in its principal products. The Company relies on a combination of
copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, confidentiality procedures and
contractual provisions to protect its proprietary rights. There can be no
assurance that the Company's existing or future copyrights, trademarks, trade
secrets or other intellectual property rights will be of sufficient scope or
strength to provide meaningful protection or commercial advantage to the
Company. FileNET has no software patents. Also, in selling certain of its
products, the Company relies on "shrink wrap" licenses that are not signed by
licensees and, therefore, may be unenforceable under the laws of certain
jurisdictions. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect
the Company's proprietary rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United
States. There can be no assurance that such factors would not have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business or operating results.
The Company may from time to time be notified that it is infringing certain
patent or intellectual property rights of others. Combinations of technology
acquired through past or future acquisitions and the Company's technology will
create new products and technology that may give rise to claims of infringement.
While no actions other than the ones discussed below are currently pending
against the Company for infringement of patent or other proprietary rights of
third parties, there can be no assurance that third parties will not initiate
infringement actions against the Company in the future. Infringement actions can
result in substantial cost to and diversion of resources of the Company. If the
Company were found to infringe upon the rights of others, no assurance can be
given that licenses would be obtainable on acceptable terms or at all, that
significant damages for past infringement would not be assessed or that further
litigation relative to any such licenses or usage would not occur. The failure
to successfully defend any claims or obtain necessary licenses or other rights,
the ultimate disposition of any claims or the advent of litigation arising out
of any claims of infringement, could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, financial condition or results of operations.
In October 1994, Wang filed a complaint in the United States District Court for
the District of Massachusetts alleging that the Company is infringing five
patents held by Wang. On June 23, 1995, Wang amended its complaint to include an
additional related patent. On July 2, 1996, Wang filed a complaint in the same
court alleging that Watermark, formerly a wholly-owned subsidiary that was
merged into the Company, is infringing three of the same patents asserted in the
initial complaint. On October 9, 1996, Wang withdrew its claim that one of the
patents it initially asserted is infringed by the Company's products which were
commercialized before the initial complaint was filed. Wang reserved the right
to assert that patent against the Company's products commercialized after that
date in a separate lawsuit. Based on the Company's analysis of these Wang
patents and their respective file histories, the Company believes that it has
meritorious defenses to Wang's claims; however, the ultimate outcome or any
resulting potential loss cannot be determined at this time.
In March 1997, Eastman Kodak Company ("Kodak") purchased the Wang imaging
business unit that has responsibility for this litigation. The patents in the
suit have been transferred to a Kodak subsidiary, Kodak Limited of England,
which in turn has exclusively licensed them to another Kodak subsidiary, Eastman
Software, Inc. in the United States. On July 30, 1997, the Court permitted
Eastman Software, Inc. and Kodak Limited of England to be substituted in the
litigation in place of Wang. The Company cannot predict what impact, if any,
this will have on the litigation.
If it should be determined that the patents at issue in the litigation are valid
and are infringed by any of the Company's products, including Watermark
products, the Company will, depending on the product, redesign the infringing
products or seek to obtain a license to market the products. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to obtain such a license on acceptable
terms.
Dependence On Certain Relationships The Company has entered into a number of
co-marketing relationships with other companies such as Microsoft Corporation,
Compaq Computer Corporation, SAP AG, Hewlett-Packard Company and Sun
Microsystems, Inc. There can be no assurance that these companies will not
reduce or discontinue their relationships with or support of the Company and its
products.
Dependence On Key Management and Technical Personnel The Company's success
depends to a significant degree upon the continued contributions of its key
management, marketing, technical and operational personnel. In general, the
Company does not utilize employment agreements for its key employees. The loss
of the services of one or more key employees could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's operating results. The Company also believes its future
success will depend in large part upon its ability to attract and retain
additional highly skilled management, technical, marketing, product development
and operational personnel. Competition for such personnel, particularly
engineers and other technical personnel, is intense, and pay scales in the
Company's industry are increasing. There can be no assurance that the Company
will be successful in attracting and retaining such personnel.
International Sales Historically, the Company has derived approximately
one-third of its total revenues from international sales. International business
is subject to certain risks including varying technical standards, tariffs and
trade barriers, political and economic instability, reduced protection for
intellectual property rights in certain countries, difficulties in staffing and
maintaining foreign operations, difficulties in managing foreign distributors,
varying requirements for localized product, potentially adverse tax
consequences, currency exchange fluctuations including those related to the EURO
beginning in 1999, the burden of complying with a wide variety of complex
operations, foreign laws, regulations and treaties and the possibility of
difficulties in collecting accounts receivable. There can be no assurance that
any of these factors will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business or operating results.
Product Liability The Company's license agreements with customers typically
contain provisions designed to limit their exposure to potential product
liability claims. However, it is possible that such limitation of liability
provisions may not be effective under the laws of certain jurisdictions.
Although the Company has not experienced any product liability claims to date,
the sale and support of products may entail the risk of such claims, and there
can be no assurance that the Company will not be subject to such claims in the
future. A successful product liability claim brought against the Company could
have a material adverse effect upon the Company's business, operating results
and financial condition.
Stock Price Volatility The Company believes that a variety of factors could
cause the trading price of its common stock to fluctuate, perhaps substantially,
including quarter-to-quarter variations in operating results; announcements of
developments related to its business; fluctuations in its order levels; general
conditions in the technology sector or the worldwide economy; announcements of
technological innovations, new products or product enhancements by the Company
or its competitors; key management changes; changes in joint marketing and
development programs; developments relating to patents or other intellectual
property rights or disputes; and developments in the Company's relationships
with its customers, distributors and suppliers. In addition, in recent years the
stock market in general, and the market for shares of high technology stocks in
particular, has experienced extreme price fluctuations which have often been
unrelated to the operating performance of affected companies. Such fluctuations
could adversely affect the trading price of the Company's common stock.

between
FILENET CORPORATION
and
ORACLE CORPORATION
This document ("Amendment Six") shall serve to amend the Runtime Sublicense
Addendum dated July 1, 1996 ("the Addendum") to the Business Alliance Program
Agreement between Filenet Corporation (the "Alliance Member") and Oracle
Corporation ("Oracle") dated July 1, 1996 (the "Agreement").
The parties shall agree to amend the Addendum as follows:
1. During the Term of the Addendum, the Alliance Member shall have the right
to market and grant Sublicense of the Runtime versions of the Programs set
forth below for use on Designated Systems in the Territory in conjunction
with the Alliance Member's Document Services ("DS") Application Program
and/or the Alliance Member's Integrated Document Management Services
("IDMS") Application Program pursuant to the terms of the Addendum and this
Amendment. The DS Application Package Attachments attached hereto as
Exhibit A. The Application Package Attachments attached herein as Exhibit A
shall be deemed added to the Agreement and the Application Programs
identified in such Addendum shall be included in the term "Application
Program" as defined in the Agreement.
Programs

2. After the first paragraph of Section 2.2 insert the following new paragraph:
"All Sublicense fees for Sublicenses installed outside the United
States shall be based on the standard list license fees for the
Programs as set forth on the Oracle' Global Price List."
3. Notwithstanding, any other provision of the Addendum, including, without
limitation, Section 2.3, the parties agree that the Alliance Member shall
have the right to Sublicense the Runtime version of the Oracle Server
Program with the DS Application Program and/or the IDMS Application Program

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the user minimums for the Oracle
Programs, stated in the table in section 1 of this Amendment licensed by
the Alliance Member as part of the Application Package shall be changed

4. Delete the body of Section 4 in its entirety and insert the following:
4. TERRITORY
The Alliance Member shall have the right to market and grant
Sublicenses of Programs in the Application Package in all countries
worldwide (the "Territory"), subject to the terms of this Section.
Oracle may from time to time deny the Alliance Member the right to
Sublicense in certain countries in the Territory in order to protect
Oracle's interests if, in the reasonable opinion of Oracle's counsel, such
countries (i) do not provide for Oracle's proprietary rights through
copyright, trade secret, patent, or other laws; or (ii) have laws or
regulations or the government has committed acts which in the opinion of
Oracle's counsel, are injurious to Oracle's interest in the Programs.
The Alliance member acknowledges that the Programs are subject to
export controls imposed on Oracle and the Alliance Member by the U.S.
Export Administration Act, United States Departments of Commerce, Treasury,
and State regulations and directives, and other United States law ("Export
laws"). The Alliance Member certifies that neither the Programs nor any
direct product thereof are (i) exported, directly or indirectly, in
violation of Export laws; or (ii) are intended to be used for any purposes
prohibited by the Export laws, including, without limitation, nuclear,
chemical, or biological weapons proliferation. Furthermore, the Alliance
Member shall not transfer the Programs outside of the territory for which
the Alliance Member has sublicense rights under this Agreement.
The Alliance Member warrants that neither it nor its Distributors will
grant Sublicenses in or ship any Programs to a country until it (or the
Distributor) has completed all necessary government formalities in such
country and upon reasonable request by Oracle, the Alliance Member (or its
Distributor) provides evidence of completion of such formalities to Oracle.
The Alliance Member will indemnify Oracle for any losses, costs, liability,
and damages incurred by Oracle as a result of a failure by the Alliance
Member or its Distributors to comply with the necessary government
requirements in any country. The obligation under this Section shall
survive the expiration or termination of this Addendum. Upon Oracle's
reasonable request, the Alliance Member shall make records available to
Oracle to allow to confirm the Alliance Member's compliance with this
Section.
5. Notwithstanding any other provision in the Addendum, for each copy of the
Oracle Server Runtime Programs Sublicensed by the Alliance Member or its
Distributor in the DS Application Package or the IDMS Application Package
for use in the Territory, the Alliance Member agrees to pay Oracle a
Sublicense fee per each authorized Simultaneous Logged-On Users for the
applicable Application Package as specified below based on the applicable
operating system for the Designated System:
Application Package Operating System Sublicense Fee
IDMS Application Package Unix $xx
NT $xx
Application Package Operating System Sublicense Fee
DS Application Package Unix $xx
NT $xx
6. In addition, Alliance Member will provide quarterly reports to Oracle
Alliances, detailing Oracle's marketshare versus non-Oracle databases for
Alliance Member's Application Packages.
7. Upgrades from Filenet's IMS to IDMS Application Package for Sublicenses
will be provided at no charge provided, (a) The same number of users are
upgraded between Filenet's IMS and IDMS Application Package, (b) All
royalties have been reported and are paid in full for the IMS users being
upgraded and (c) The end users are currently being supported by Filenet for
all Runtime Sublicenses.
Other than the modifications set forth above, the terms and conditions of the
Addendum and the Agreement remain unchanged and in full force and effect.
The Effective Date of this Amendment Six is October 16, 1998.
