                                     PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

General

     Interleaf-Registered Trademark-, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Interleaf" or
the "Company") develop and market software that is used in the creation,
management, and distribution of documents. The Company's software enables
customers to compose, edit, view and print documents, while also facilitating
their electronic management, preparation, conversion and distribution, thereby
enabling the Company to offer its customers an integrated document management
("IDM") solution.

     Since the Company's inception, Interleaf has primarily focused on the
development and marketing of electronic publishing software on 32-bit Unix
workstations ("Workstations") manufactured by International Business Machines
Corporation ("IBM"), Digital Equipment Corporation ("Digital"), Sun
Microsystems, Inc. ("Sun"), Hewlett-Packard Company ("HP"), and on Intel-based
personal computers ("PCs"). During fiscal 1996, the Company completed porting
most of its software products to the Windows NT and Windows 95 operating systems
developed by Microsoft Corporation.

     While the demand for electronic publishing products on Workstations and PCs
has matured, companies are requiring specific applications to integrate,
control, and distribute documents as an essential part of their businesses. This
market, however, has evolved slowly and has required that the Company reduce its
asset base and employment level. In September 1993, the Company recorded a
restructuring charge of $3 million, reducing employment by approximately 5%. As
the Company's electronic publishing revenue continued to decline in fiscal 1995,
the Company recorded a $7.1 million restructuring charge in September 1994,
reduced employment by approximately 25%, closed and consolidated 19 of the
Company's sales offices worldwide, and relocated its corporate headquarters. As
a result in fiscal 1996, operating expenses were reduced by approximately $18
million, while revenue was flat. Moreover, during fiscal 1996, since the Company
has been increasing its focus on developing and marketing IDM applications, it
restructured its sales force, including its senior sales management.

     In fiscal 1997, the Company will continue its focus on developing IDM
applications to solve specific business problems for its customers, such as ISO
9000 applications for the manufacturing environment, and sales force automation
and integration. In May 1996, Interleaf acquired The Learning Alliance, Inc. to
utilize its sales force automation and integration technology in developing new
applications in this area. The Company's future revenue growth will be largely
dependent on its ability to develop these new applications and its reorganized
sales force to sell them successfully into the marketplace.

PRODUCTS AND SPECIALIZED SERVICES

     The Company currently markets an integrated suite of software products that
are sold both individually and as part of an IDM solution. The products include
Interleaf 6 for publishing, WorldView for on-line distribution of document
collections, Intellecte/Access and RDM for document management, Cyberleaf and
Intellecte/BusinessWeb for Internet and intranet publishing and document
management, and Avalanche products for document preparation and conversion.  The
Company also markets specialized services that include consulting and training
to enable its customers to deploy their IDM solutions.

     INTERLEAF 6. Interleaf 6 operates on Sun, Digital, HP and IBM Workstations,
and supports the industry standard graphical user interface, Motif. During
fiscal 1996, the Company completed porting Interleaf 6 to Windows NT and Windows
95 developed by Microsoft Corporation.

     Interleaf 6 is a production publishing engine that provides the
capabilities to develop solutions for customers' complex document processes.
Information-driven and collaborative publishing processes require a publishing
engine to assimilate information from documents that originate from a variety of
sources. These documents may be either a single document containing thousands of
pages or a collection or library of interrelated documents. Interleaf 6 enables
customers to reuse this information and re-purpose it for different distribution
media: paper, Internet, local area network ("LAN"), wide area network ("WAN"),
or CD-ROM. These documents share common characteristics such as multiple
authors, controlled revisions and long life cycles. Interleaf 6 automates
complex document processes by providing tools for creating and maintaining
documentation. By leveraging 32-bit operating environments, Interleaf 6 can
execute rapid changes across large document collections, maintaining cross
references, autonumbering and pagination.

                                        2

<PAGE>

     Foreign language versions of Interleaf 6 are available in French, Italian
and German. In fiscal 1996, the Company completed a Japanese version. Interleaf
6 is sold in modules. In the United States, the base module is priced at $1,395
and the complete package is $15,000. Interleaf 6 is subject to volume price
discounts, depending on the amount committed to by a customer.

     WORLDVIEW. WorldView is a comprehensive electronic document distribution
system which enables customers to transform various types of electronic data
into collections of interrelated information for distribution online, by CD-ROM,
diskette or other media type for viewing on PCs and Workstations and is
available in English, French, Italian, Spanish, German and Japanese languages.
Customers may merge and assimilate documents ranging from single page reports to
thousands of pages of documentation that may originate in different formats and
different applications throughout an organization, thereby allowing customers to
build comprehensive electronic distribution applications designed specifically
for their document processes. WorldView also offers the ability to enhance
information with formatting, structure, graphical road maps and access tools.

     These products have a list price starting at $195 in the United States.
WorldView Press, the tool that customers use to prepare their documents created
by either Interleaf or non-Interleaf authoring tools, for electronic viewing,
starts at $5,000. WorldView is subject to volume discounts.

     RDM. Interleaf's RDM is a product for use on PCs and Workstations that
enables users to manage documents, whether created with Interleaf 6 or other
authoring products, in large document databases. RDM manages documents through
the creation, revision, and approval processes. It provides users with a central
document repository that manages document workflow, security, relationships and
revisions, particularly relevant in regulated and quality-driven processes. This
product has a list price starting at approximately $36,000 in the United States.

     INTELLECTE/ACCESS. This product combines RDM, WorldView and optionally
Interleaf 6, with implementation services, for complex IDM projects. Since many
IDM projects require the integration of workflow, authoring, and viewing with
document management tools, Intellecte/Access enables customers to adopt this
integration package in a standard format. The Intellecte/Access service offering
tailors the integrated system to the customer's specific environment. In the
United States, Intellecte/Access is priced at $175,000, depending on services
needed by the customer.

     INTELLECTE/BUSINESS WEB. This product offers Internet access to an RDM-
managed knowledge repository using a standard Web browser. Introduced in fiscal
1996, this product lists for approximately $25,000.

     CYBERLEAF. This Internet product was introduced in November 1994 and
enables customers to publish documents on the Internet. Customers use Cyberleaf
to transform word processing files into Internet webs, ready to be viewed by
standard web browsers on the World Wide Web. Cyberleaf provides a complete web
production environment so information can be maintained in a single source. This
product has a list price of $1,595 in the United States.

     LIAISON. Liaison is an open Application Programming Interface designed to
facilitate the development of IDM applications. Released in fiscal 1996,
Liaison's object-oriented framework is standards-based and makes it easy to
rapidly create networked solutions that operate across applications and
platforms. The price of this product begins at $499.

     AVALANCHE. These products include Avalanche FASTTAG, which provides
structure to documents and filters them into Standard General Markup Language
("SGML") and word processing formats. Avalanche SGML HAMMER is a toolkit for
converting SGML documents between Document Type Definitions ("DTDs") and
filtering them into other formats so they can be used by word processors. In the
United States, the price for these products run from $3500 to $4000, depending
on platform.

     All of the Company's core software products support documents in SGML
format. SGML is a standard to facilitate document interchange and is the basis
for Hypertext Markup Language ("HTML"), the data form for Internet World Wide
Web publishing.

     SERVICES. The Company continues to implement its services strategy of
providing consulting and training to its customers to enable them to deploy
their IDM solutions, utilizing Interleaf's software products. During the fiscal
years ended March 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, worldwide revenues from services were
approximately $21.5, $22.6 million, and $19.6 million respectively, representing
approximately 24%, 26%, and 18% respectively, of the Company's total revenues.

                                        3

<PAGE>

     MARKETS AND CUSTOMERS. Interleaf has historically directed its marketing
efforts primarily to the technical documentation segment of the electronic
publishing market. As this segment has matured, the Company has been
diversifying into IDM solutions, with emphasis on vertical markets. In fiscal
1997, the Company expects to identify and create applications to solve specific
business problems, such as ISO 9000 certification in manufacturing and sales
force automation and integration. Customers in these new markets require
software products from the Company that create, manage and disseminate document
based information to meet their specific business problems.

SALES AND DISTRIBUTION

     UNITED STATES. In the United States, Interleaf distributes its software
products and customized services through direct and alternate channels.

     DIRECT CHANNEL. Currently, the Company sells its software products and
consulting services to customers primarily through its direct sales force. Since
the start of fiscal 1993, the Company  has had a telesales operation at its
corporate offices to supplement its direct sales force.

     The consulting services are performed by consulting engineers working out
of the Company's direct sales offices or corporate headquarters.

     DIRECT SALES/SERVICES. In the United States, the Company employs
approximately 174 persons engaged in direct sales, sales support, and services
activities. Services includes employees engaged in project management,
customized services and pre-sales activities. Interleaf maintains sales and
service offices in 8 United States locations.

     ALTERNATE CHANNELS. The Company has entered into agreements with a number
of value-added resellers to market and distribute its software products.
Currently, the Company has approximately 80 resellers in the United States who
resell its software products. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 1996,
domestic revenues attributable to VAR sales totaled approximately 5% of the
domestic revenues, compared with 6% of the domestic revenues in both fiscal 1995
and fiscal 1994.

     Overall, domestic revenue from the direct and alternate channels, including
services and customer support, accounted for approximately $55 million for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 1996, representing approximately 62% of the
Company's revenues for such year, compared with approximately $57 million or 65%
of total revenues for fiscal 1995, and $68 million or 61% of total revenues for
fiscal 1994.

     INTERNATIONAL. The Company primarily markets its software products and
specialized services in Canada,  Europe and Asia through its wholly-owned
subsidiaries. In Italy, however, Interleaf products are sold exclusively through
Interleaf Italia S.r.l. The Company has an equity interest of approximately 30%
in Interleaf Italia S.r.l., and has the right to purchase the remaining equity
at a formula price based upon investment by the other shareholders in such
entity, as well as its sales and profitability. Since April 1989, Interleaf has
been selling its products in Latin America through Interleaf Americas, Ltd., an
exclusive distributor. The revenues from Interleaf Americas have been
insignificant.

     In August 1992, Interleaf established a wholly owned subsidiary in Japan to
market the Company's Japanese language products. This subsidiary has been
primarily selling through Japanese distributors and resellers who have
significant services capabilities, and not directly to end users as the Company
generally does outside of Japan.

     Sales and support offices for these non-U.S. entities are maintained in
nearly all major European cities; the Company also has offices in Ottawa,
Canada; Tokyo, Japan; and Sydney and Melbourne, Australia.

     Overall, international sales, including services and customer support,
accounted for approximately $34 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1996
or 38% of total revenues, compared with approximately $31 million or 35% of
total revenues for fiscal 1995, and approximately $43 million or 39% of total
revenues for fiscal 1994. As of March 31, 1996, 157 employees work in the
Company's international operations, including 15 in customer support.

                                        4

<PAGE>

CUSTOMER SUPPORT

     Many of Interleaf's customers enter into customer support agreements. The
Company employs 41 persons in customer support at its corporate headquarters,
and approximately 15 outside the United States. Each customer who has entered
into a standard support contract receives telephone access to the Company's
customer support staff and bug fixes and upgrades to Interleaf products covered
under the support contract. Worldwide revenues from customer support were $32.3
million, representing approximately 36% of total revenues for fiscal year ended
March 31, 1996, compared with $30.7 million or 35% of total revenues for fiscal
year ended March 31, 1995, and $30.7 million, or 28% of total revenues, for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 1994.

     In the United States, the list price for standard support for Interleaf 6
is approximately $450 per year, generally paid annually in advance, with the
price increasing to $3,495 per year for Interleaf 6, with all options. Pricing
for support of the Company's WorldView product is listed at 20% of end-user
price, depending upon the configuration, with support for the Company's RDM
product being priced at approximately 20% of end-user price. If non-standard
support by a customer is required, prices will vary substantially.

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT AND ENGINEERING

     The software industry is characterized by rapid technological change which
requires the continuing enhancement of existing products, development of new
products and the porting of these products to new hardware platforms, operating
systems, and to various industry standard graphical user interfaces and
operating systems: (1) Motif-Registered Trademark-, (2) Windows, and (3) Windows
NT. During fiscal 1996, the Company completed its port of Interleaf 6 to operate
on the Windows NT and Windows 95 operating systems. The Company also completed
porting its WorldView and RDM products in client mode to operate on the Windows
NT operating system in fiscal 1996.

     In fiscal 1996, as the Internet and intranets grew in the marketplace, the
Company developed its Intellecte/BusinessWeb product to enable its IDM solutions
to be utilized with these emerging technologies. In fiscal 1997, the Company
expects to continue to shift development and engineering resources toward the
development of business specific applications, such as sales force automation
and integration.

     During the fiscal years ended March 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, the Company's
product development and engineering expenses, including the amortization of
software development costs, were approximately $19.1 million, $22.1 million, and
$21.2 million respectively, representing 22%, 25%, and 19% respectively, of the
Company's total revenues. As of March 31, 1996, the Company had 169 employees
engaged in product development and engineering.

MANUFACTURING

     The Company's manufacturing operations are engaged in the duplication of
tapes and diskettes, assembling, and final packaging.

BACKLOG

     The Company generally manufactures its software on the basis of its
forecast of near-term demand and generally ships to end users within 30 days
after receipt of the order. Consequently, the Company's product backlog at this
time is not indicative of future sales levels. The Company does not regard the
amount of backlog at any time to be material to a current understanding of its
business. As the Company continues to expand its IDM business, which combines
products and services, project back-logs are expected to develop which may be
significant to understanding the business.

COMPETITION

     The electronic publishing, viewing, and document management markets are
highly competitive. Interleaf competes with a number of companies and expects
that other companies not currently in the electronic publishing, viewing, and
document management market may introduce competing products. In addition, the
introduction and market acceptance of new technologies such as the Internet and
intranet, may also offer new forms of competition to the Company's existing
products.

                                        5

<PAGE>

     At the low end of the electronic publishing and viewing market, the Company
competes with Adobe Systems Inc. Principal competitive factors include product
functionality, customer support, ease of use, integration, and price. In the
document management market, the Company competes with numerous companies,
including Documentum, Inc.

     The Company believes that its core products, integrated with each other,
blended with specialized services, and used across different hardware platforms,
are its principal competitive advantage in a market that is fragmented with many
companies offering only separate parts of a solution. The Company also believes
that its ability to provide IDM solutions for customer specific business
problems will increasingly distinguish the Company from its competitors.

EMPLOYEES

     As of March 31, 1996, the Company, worldwide, employed 647 full-time
employees, of whom 169 were employed in research and development, which includes
quality assurance and technical documentation, 174 in  domestic sales
operations, including services, 41 in domestic customer support, 36 in corporate
marketing, 70 in finance and administration, and 157 in the Company's
international operations. The Company's success will depend in large part on its
ability to attract and retain qualified personnel, who are in demand throughout
the industry. None of the Company's employees are represented by a labor union.
Interleaf believes that its employee relations are good.

PRODUCT PROTECTION

     The Company relies on a combination of trade secret, patent, copyright and
trademark laws, license agreements and technical measures to protect its rights
in and to its software. Although the Company's license agreements prohibit
disclosure of the proprietary aspects of its products, it is technically
possible for competitors to copy aspects of its products in violation of the
Company's rights. INTERLEAF, Intellecte, Cyberleaf,  FASTTAG and SGML HAMMER are
registered trademarks of the Company; WorldView and RDM are trademarks of the
Company.

     The Company believes that, because of rapid technological change in the
software industry, patent, trade secret and copyright protection are less
significant than factors such as the knowledge, ability and experience of
employees as well as name recognition.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

     The Company's principal executive, administrative and research and
development operations are located in two adjacent buildings, cumulatively
totalling approximately 110,000 square-feet in Waltham, Massachusetts, both of
which the Company occupies under leases expiring in December 2000.

     The Company also leases sales and support offices in 8 locations in the
United States and 14 foreign locations for its subsidiaries.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     There are no material legal proceedings to which the Company is a party or
to which any of its property is subject.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

     No matter was submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth
quarter of the fiscal year covered by this report.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

R E S U L T S  O F  O P E R A T I O N S

          OVERVIEW: During the last three fiscal years, fiscal 1994 through
     1996, the Company has experienced significant changes to all aspects of its
     business: a new management team is in place, the Company's cost structure
     has been significantly reduced, and the Company's business strategy has
     evolved into a focus on developing and supporting integrated document
     management (IDM) solutions. As a result of these changes, the Company's
     operating results have improved from net losses of approximately $8.4
     million and $48.4 million in fiscal 1994 and 1995 respectively, to earning
     a small profit of approximately $0.3 million in fiscal 1996. The Company
     had historically derived a majority of its product revenue from its
     authoring products. Authoring product license revenue experienced slowing
     growth in fiscal 1993, declined in fiscal 1994, and by the end of fiscal
     1995, had declined significantly from the beginning of fiscal 1993. As a
     result, during fiscal 1994 and 1995, the Company initiated two
     restructurings, resulting in a new senior management team, a 25% reduction
     in the Company's worldwide employment during fiscal 1995, and the
     elimination and/or consolidation of its corporate headquarters and 23 sales
     offices. These initiatives resulted in annual cost savings of approximately
     $18 million in fiscal 1996, when compared with fiscal 1995.

          In fiscal 1996, the Company began to realize some of the benefits of
     the initiatives taken in fiscal 1994 and 1995, as it succeeded in returning
     to profitability. Revenue stabilized as a continued decline in authoring
     product license revenue was offset by growing IDM solution revenues. The
     focus on IDM solutions required major changes in the worldwide sales
     organization; by the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996, about two-thirds of the
     Company's sales force, as well as sales management, had been with the
     Company fewer than twelve months. In addition, the Company released major
     enhancements across its entire product line as well as several important
     new products during fiscal 1996, and expects to release a number of
     additional new products in fiscal 1997. Based on anticipated increasing
     productivity of the sales force and favorable acceptance of the new and
     enhanced products, the Company expects to show improved results during the
     latter part of fiscal 1997.

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

          REVENUES

          PRODUCT: Total revenues were relatively stable in fiscal 1996 from
     1995, compared to a decrease of 21% in fiscal 1995 from 1994. The decrease
     in fiscal 1995 was due to an approximately $26.3 million (43%) reduction in
     product license revenue, specifically from the decline in licensing of the
     Company's authoring products. This was primarily attributable to the
     increasing power of personal computers and popularity of Windows-based
     publishing software, for which the Company did not have any offerings until
     fiscal 1996, and the saturation of UNIX-based high-end authoring software
     in the aerospace/defense industry, where the Company had historically
     derived most of its authoring product license revenue. This trend continued
     during fiscal 1996 as a decline in authoring product license revenue was
     offset by increases in IDM solution revenue. Moreover, during fiscal 1996,
     the Company has concentrated on rebuilding and strengthening its worldwide
     sales force. The expected improvement in sales force productivity has taken
     longer than planned, resulting in a slower return to product license
     growth.

          MAINTENANCE: Maintenance revenue, resulting from contracts to provide
     telephone support and upgrades to the Company's software products, was
     relatively stable in fiscal 1996, 1995 and 1994. This stability, during a
     time of decreasing product licensing, was largely attributable to renewals
     from the Company's very large, long-term customers primarily in the
     aerospace/defense industry. Future maintenance revenue is dependent on the
     Company's ability to maintain its existing customer base and to increase
     maintenance contract volume related to the new IDM solution sales. This
     will be necessary to offset the general downward pricing pressure on
     maintenance in the software industry.

          SERVICES: Services revenue, consisting of consulting and customer
     training revenue, decreased by $1.1 million (5%) in fiscal 1996 from 1995,
     compared to an increase of $3.0 million (15%) in fiscal 1995 from 1994. The
     Company leverages software product licenses with services to provide IDM
     solutions to its customers. During fiscal 1995, the Company worked on
     several large service projects which were completed during early fiscal
     1996. The increase in fiscal 1995 from 1994 was primarily due to these
     projects, which increased employee utilization rates, and price increases
     implemented during 1995. The decline in fiscal 1996 was primarily
     attributable to the decrease in product license revenues during the last
     two quarters of fiscal 1996, a decrease in services personnel, and lower
     training revenue associated with the decline in authoring software product
     licensing.

          NORTH AMERICA: Revenues were approximately $57.1 million (64%), $60.0
     million (68%), and $72.4 million (65%) of total revenues during fiscal
     1996, 1995, and 1994, respectively. The decline in fiscal 1996 was
     primarily due to a decrease in product license and training revenues. The
     decrease in fiscal 1995, when compared with fiscal 1994, was due to a
     significant decline in authoring product license revenues, partially offset
     by an increase in services revenue.

          INTERNATIONAL: Revenues from the Company's international operations
     were approximately $31.5 million (36%), $27.9 million (32%), and $38.8
     million (35%) of total revenues during fiscal 1996, 1995, and 1994,
     respectively. The increase in fiscal 1996 was primarily due to an increase
     in electronic distribution software licensing agreements in Europe and
     increased demand from resellers in Japan, partially offset by a decline in
     European services. The decrease in fiscal 1995, when compared with fiscal
     1994, was due to a significant reduction in product license revenues in
     Europe, primarily authoring products, and a decrease in demand from
     resellers in Japan. This was partially offset by increased services revenue
     in Europe.

          Product license revenue in Japan is volatile because the Company
     distributes its products through a network of large credit-worthy resellers
     and integrators who typically enter into large upfront fixed fee license
     agreements. Revenue in Japan during a given period is dependent on the
     success of the resellers and integrators in licensing the Company's
     products to end-user customers.

          FISCAL 1997: During fiscal 1997, the Company plans to develop several
     IDM-based product offerings which solve specific business problems such as
     sales force automation and integration, quality and health and safety
     compliance in manufacturing, and customer reporting in the financial
     services industry. As part of this strategy, the Company acquired The
     Learning Alliance, Inc. (TLA) in May 1996 and recently announced
     Intellecte/Sales Team, a product offering that combines the Company's
     Intellecte/BusinessWeb solution with TLA's sales methodology and sales
     process management software into a sales force automation application.
     Growth in revenues during fiscal 1997 will be largely dependent on
     improving sales force productivity, the effectiveness of the Company's
     increased investment in marketing and lead generation programs, customer
     acceptance of the new and enhanced software products released in fiscal
     1996 and planned for the next year, and the Company's success in leveraging
     software products with services to provide IDM solutions to its customers.

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

          COSTS OF REVENUES

          Cost of product revenues includes amortization of capitalized software
     development costs; product media, documentation materials, packaging and
     shipping costs; and royalties paid for licensed technology. Cost of product
     revenues declined approximately $4.4 million (41%) in fiscal 1996 from
     1995, compared to an increase of approximately $1.2 million (13%) in fiscal
     1995 from 1994. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 1995, the Company recorded
     a write-down of capitalized software development costs  associated with
     older software products for which revenue projections did not support the
     capitalized amounts. Also contributing to the high cost of product revenues
     during fiscal 1995 were fixed overhead costs and certain time-based royalty
     agreements. The decrease in fiscal 1996, when compared with fiscal 1995,
     was primarily related to lower amortization of capitalized software
     development costs, due to the fiscal 1995 write-down, and a decline in
     royalties associated with certain time-based royalty agreements. Further
     savings from the fiscal 1996 level are not anticipated. Cost of maintenance
     revenue decreased by approximately $1.0 million (16%) in fiscal 1996 from
     1995, compared to a decrease of approximately $0.7 million (11%) in fiscal
     1995 from fiscal 1994. The decreases in the last two years were primarily
     related to a reduction in customer support personnel associated with the
     Company's fiscal 1995 restructuring. Further savings from the fiscal 1996
     level are not anticipated. The decrease in cost of services revenue of
     approximately $1.3 million (7%) in fiscal 1996 from 1995 and approximately
     $1.0 million (5%) in fiscal 1995 from fiscal 1994, was primarily related to
     a decline in services personnel during the last two years. Costs of
     services in fiscal 1997 is dependent on the Company's revenue associated
     with combining software products and services into IDM solutions.

          OPERATING EXPENSES

          SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE (SG&A): SG&A expenses decreased by
     approximately $12.5 million (23%) in fiscal 1996 from 1995, compared to a
     decrease of approximately $3.7 million (6%) in fiscal 1995 from fiscal
     1994. The decline in SG&A expenses over the last two years was primarily
     due to significant personnel and facilities expense reductions related to
     the Company's fiscal 1995 restructuring. Also contributing to lower SG&A
     expenses in fiscal 1996 was the settlement of a long-term dispute with a
     joint venture partner that resulted in a non-recurring expense reduction of
     approximately $1.2 million (see Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial
     Statements for further discussion). Further SG&A expense reductions are not
     anticipated as the full benefit of the restructuring programs have been
     realized. Additionally, the Company intends to increase its investment in
     marketing expenditures to increase its visibility and create new sales
     opportunities. The Company will continue to manage SG&A expenses to keep
     costs in line with revenue.

          RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT (R&D): R&D expenses consist primarily of
     personnel expenses to support product development offset by capitalized
     software development costs. R&D expenses decreased by approximately $1.0
     million (6%) in fiscal 1996 from 1995, compared to a decrease of
     approximately $0.5 million (3%) in fiscal 1995 from fiscal 1994. The
     decrease in fiscal 1996, when compared with fiscal 1995, was primarily due
     to reduced personnel expenses associated with the Company's fiscal 1995
     restructuring and increased capitalization of software development costs.
     During fiscal 1996, 1995, and 1994, R&D expenses were approximately 18%,
     19%, and 16%, respectively, of total revenues. R&D spending, which excludes
     the offset for capitalized software development costs, represented
     approximately 23%, 24%, and 19% of total revenues, respectively. During
     fiscal 1996, the Company completed enhancements across all of its product
     lines; ported its authoring product to the Windows 95 and Windows NT
     operating systems; and introduced Liaison, a new strategic open Application
     Programming Interface for simplifying the creation of IDM solutions, and
     Intellecte/BusinessWeb, which provides easy access to business information
     by enabling the use of all popular web browsers to locate and retrieve
     documents from enterprise document repositories utilizing the Company's
     document management product. The Company's product development plans for
     fiscal 1997 will focus on IDM-based product offerings and continued
     investment in product enhancements and ports. R&D expenses are expected to
     remain fairly stable but are dependent on the capitalization of software
     development costs associated with the fiscal 1997 product development
     plans.

<PAGE>

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

          ONE-TIME CHARGES: The Company incurred restructuring charges of
     approximately $7.1 million in fiscal 1995, related to a worldwide
     reorganization and a reduction in the size of its operations; and
     approximately $3.0 million in fiscal 1994, related to reorganization of
     certain international subsidiaries. During the fourth quarter of fiscal
     1995, the new management team performed a strategic and operational review
     of the Company's sales and marketing processes, distribution channels,
     product development plans, and customer support operations. As a
     consequence of this review and associated changes in the Company's business
     strategy and operations, the Company evaluated the carrying value of its
     long-lived assets, principally goodwill and capitalized software
     development costs, which resulted in a write-down of these assets of
     approximately $17.2 million. During fiscal 1994, a non-recurring charge of
     approximately $4.0 million was recorded for purchased in-process research
     and development associated with the Company's acquisition of Avalanche
     Development Company. See Notes 4, 8 and 13 to the Consolidated Financial
     Statements for additional information.

          INCOME TAXES

          In fiscal 1994, the Company adopted SFAS No. 109, ACCOUNTING FOR
     INCOME TAXES, which resulted in a benefit of approximately $1.9 million
     recorded as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. This
     amount represented the Company's estimate of research and development tax
     credit carryforwards that it considered probable of realization based on
     anticipated domestic taxable income prior to the expiration of the credit
     carryforwards. Fiscal 1995 was negatively impacted by an adjustment to the
     beginning deferred tax asset valuation allowance of approximately $1.9
     million when an analysis of the Company's actual and anticipated operating
     results indicated, at that time, that the deferred tax asset established in
     fiscal 1994 was not expected to be realized.

          The Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately
     $38.8 million in several tax jurisdictions to offset future taxable income.
     In addition, the Company has tax credit carryforwards of approximately $7.1
     million to offset federal and state income tax liabilities. Therefore, the
     Company expects to pay minimal income taxes for the foreseeable future.

L I Q U I D I T Y  A N D  C A P I T A L  R E S O U R C E S

          The Company had approximately $12.7 million of cash and cash
     equivalents at March 31, 1996, an increase of approximately $2.3 million
     from March 31, 1995. The increase was primarily attributable to positive
     cash flow from operating activities during fiscal 1996 and proceeds from
     common stock issuances related to its stock option plans and employee stock
     purchase plan of approximately $2.8 million. This positive impact was
     partially offset by expenditures to liquidate capital lease obligations of
     approximately $1.7 million and restructuring payments of approximately $2.0
     million. Capital expenditures were approximately $1.6 million, a
     significant reduction from the prior fiscal year. Interleaf's German
     subsidiary, Interleaf GmbH, has been notified that it is liable for German
     withholding taxes related to payments remitted to the United States from
     Germany in 1990. The Company is appealing this assessment. At March 31,
     1996, the Company had approximately $1.1 million of cash restricted for
     potential payment of German withholding taxes, and approximately $0.2
     million as collateral for various lease commitments.

          Future capital commitments consist primarily of operating leases
     related to both open and closed facilities. The Company expects to commit
     to capital expenditures and operating leases totaling approximately $3.0
     million for improvements to its information systems infrastructure.

          Accrued restructuring charges were approximately $1.3 million at March
     31, 1996. The Company relocated part of its headquarters operations and
     sub-leased all major closed facilities during fiscal 1996. The reduction in
     office space and rental rate and sub-lease of the vacated headquarters
     space will result in annual cash and expense savings slightly in excess of
     $1.0 million beginning in fiscal 1997. The restructuring reserve should be
     sufficient to cover remaining expenditures, primarily attributable to
     operating lease payments, net of sublease receipts, for closed facilities.
     These expenditures are anticipated to continue through the year 2000.

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

          In May 1995, the Company obtained a revolving line of credit from a
     major commercial lender. Borrowings from the line of credit are secured by
     substantially all domestic assets of the Company. At March 31, 1996, there
     were no loans outstanding under this line of credit. As of May 17, 1996,
     approximately $1.0 million of standby letters of credit were outstanding
     and the amount available for borrowings was approximately $3.3 million. See
     Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements regarding borrowing limits
     and restrictive covenants associated with the credit agreement.

          In November 1995, the Company issued 190,000 shares of common stock
     associated with an agreement between the Company and a joint venture
     partner (see Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further
     discussion). On May 1, 1996, the Company acquired The Learning Alliance,
     Inc. for $2,690,000. The Company issued approximately 350,000 shares of
     common stock to the selling shareholders of TLA for the entire purchase
     amount.

          The Company believes that its existing cash and cash equivalents,
     available line of credit, and cash generated from operations will provide
     sufficient funds to meet the Company's planned operations for the
     foreseeable future.

R I S K  F A C T O R S

          From time to time, information provided by the Company or statements
     made by its employees may contain forward-looking information. The
     Company's actual future results may differ materially from those
     projections or suggestions made in such forward-looking information as a
     result of various potential risks and uncertainties including, but not
     limited to, the factors discussed below.

          The Company's future operating results are dependent on its ability to
     develop and market integrated document management software products and
     services that meet the changing needs of organizations with complex
     document management requirements. There are numerous risks associated with
     this process, including rapid technological change in the information
     technology industry and the requirement to bring to market IDM solutions
     that solve complex business needs in a timely manner. In addition, the
     existing document publishing, electronic distribution, and document
     management markets are highly competitive. The Company competes against a
     number of  companies for sales of its software products on both an
     individual product basis and integrated with services in large IDM solution
     sales.

          Sales cycles associated with IDM solution sales are long because
     organizations frequently require the Company to solve complex business
     problems that typically involve reengineering of their business processes.
     In addition, a high percentage of the Company's product license revenues
     are generally realized in the last month of a fiscal quarter and can be
     difficult to predict until the end of a fiscal quarter. Accordingly, given
     the Company's relatively fixed cost structure, a shortfall or increase in
     product license revenue will have a significant impact on the Company's
     operating results.

          The Company markets its software products and services worldwide.
     Global and/or regional economic factors, currency exchange rate
     fluctuations, and potential changes in laws and regulations affecting the
     Company's business could impact the Company's financial condition or future
     operating results.

          The market price of the Company's common stock may be volatile at
     times in response to fluctuations in the Company's quarterly operating
     results, changes in analysts' earnings estimates, market conditions in the
     computer software industry, as well as general conditions and other factors
     external to the Company.

REPORT OF MANAGEMENT

          The financial statements, including all related financial information
     presented in the Annual Report, were prepared by management, and management
     is responsible for their fairness, integrity and objectivity. These
     statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
     accounting principles, and include amounts that are based on management's
     best estimates and judgement and incorporate accounting policies that are
     reasonable and prudent for the Company's business environment. The
     financial statements have been audited by our independent public
     accountants, Ernst & Young LLP, and their report is included elsewhere
     herein.

          The Company maintains accounting and control systems that are subject
     to modification based on recommendations from Ernst & Young LLP. Management
     believes the internal control systems in use are sufficient to provide
     reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded against material loss and
     are properly accounted for, and that transactions are properly recorded in
     the financial records used in preparing the financial statements.

          The Company has distributed throughout the organization its policies
     for financial control. Management believes that its policies and the
     monitoring of compliance with these policies provide reasonable assurance
     that its operations are adhering to prescribed financial policy.

          The Board of Directors carries out its responsibility for these
     financial statements through its Audit Committee, composed of nonemployee
     Directors. The Audit Committee reviews the financial statements before they
     are released for publication. The Committee meets periodically with the
     senior financial officers and Ernst & Young LLP. It reviews the audit
     scope, significant financial transactions, major accounting issues and
     recommendations of Ernst & Young LLP. Ernst & Young LLP has full and free
     access to the Audit Committee and meets with its members, with and without
     management being present, to discuss internal control, auditing and
     financial reporting matters.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

N O T E  1  COMPANY

     Interleaf, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company) develop and market
     integrated document management software and services worldwide for
     networked and Web-based business solutions. The Company's software is used
     for the electronic assembly, management, retrieval, distribution and
     publishing of business-critical documents.

N O T E  2  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION: The consolidated financial statements include
     the accounts of Interleaf, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All significant
     intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
     consolidation.

     REVENUE RECOGNITION: Revenue from the license of software products is
     recognized when the products are shipped, provided there are no significant
     vendor obligations remaining and collection of the receivable is considered
     probable. Costs associated with insignificant vendor obligations are
     accrued. Maintenance revenue is recognized ratably over the contract
     period. Services (consulting and training) revenue is recognized as the
     related services are performed on either a time and materials basis or pro-
     rata based on project or contract completion.

     Unearned revenue represents the remaining amount of revenue to be
     recognized in future periods primarily related to maintenance and service
     contracts.

     CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS: Cash equivalents, consisting primarily of bank
     notes, commercial paper and treasury bills, represent highly liquid
     investments with maturities at date of purchase of three months or less.
     These investments are stated at cost, which approximates market value.

     At March 31, 1996, the Company had approximately $1.1 million of cash
     restricted for potential payment of German withholding taxes, and
     approximately $0.2 million as collateral for various lease commitments.

     PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT: Property and equipment are stated at cost.
     Depreciation and amortization are determined on the straight-line method
     over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. The estimated useful
     lives generally range from 3 to 5 years. Expenditures for repairs and
     maintenance are charged to operations as incurred.

     CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS: Costs incurred in the research,
     design and development of software for sale to others are charged to
     expense until technological feasibility is established, after which
     remaining software development costs are capitalized and amortized
     beginning when the product is available for general release to customers.
     The amortization included in product costs of revenue is the greater of the
     amount computed using the ratio of current gross revenues to total current
     and anticipated gross revenues, or straight-line over the estimated
     remaining useful life of the product not to exceed three years. The Company
     continually compares the unamortized portion of capitalized software
     development costs to the net realizable value of the related product. The
     net realizable value is the estimated future gross revenues from that
     product reduced by the estimated future costs of completing and disposing
     of that product. The amount by which the unamortized capitalized costs
     exceed the net realizable value is written-off.

     See Note 4 for discussion of Intangible Asset write-downs recorded during
     fiscal 1995.

     FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION: The translation of assets and liabilities of
     foreign subsidiaries is made at year-end rates of exchange, and revenues
     and expenses are recorded at average rates of exchange. The resulting
     translation adjustments are excluded from net income and are accumulated as
     a separate component of shareholders' equity. Realized and unrealized
     exchange gains or losses from foreign currency transactions are reflected
     in the statements of operations and are not material.

     INCOME TAXES: Income taxes have been provided using the liability method in
     accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES.

     INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE: Per share amounts are calculated using the
     weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents
     outstanding during periods of net income. Common share equivalents are
     attributable to stock options, common stock warrants and convertible
     preferred stock. Per share amounts are calculated using only the weighted
     average number of common shares outstanding during periods of net loss.
     Fully diluted earnings per share is not materially different from reported
     primary earnings per share.

     STOCK OPTIONS: The Company grants stock options for a fixed number of
     shares to employees with an exercise price not less than the fair market
     value of the shares on the date of grant. The Company accounts for stock
     option grants in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK
     ISSUED TO EMPLOYEES, and, accordingly, recognizes no compensation expense
     for the stock option grants.

     CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK: Financial instruments which potentially
     subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of
     cash investments and accounts receivable. The Company places its cash
     investments in investment grade instruments with maturities of three months
     or less and limits the amount of investment with any one financial
     institution. The credit risk associated with accounts receivable is limited
     due to the Company's credit evaluation process and the large number of
     customers and their dispersion over different industries and geographic
     areas.

N O T E  2  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CON'T)

     USE OF ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES: 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 these estimates.

     BASIS OF PRESENTATION: Certain 1994 and 1995 amounts have been reclassified
     to conform to the 1996 basis of presentation.

N O T E  3 PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

     Property and equipment at March 31 consisted of the following:

N O T E  4 INTANGIBLE ASSETS

     During fiscal 1995, the Company recorded a write-down of intangible assets
     principally associated with goodwill and capitalized software development
     costs. The charge to write-down goodwill was approximately $15.2 million,
     primarily related to the Company's acquisitions in prior years of its
     exclusive distributors in Canada, France, and Germany. During fiscal 1994,
     these subsidiaries began to experience declines in profitability. To
     improve the profitability of its international operations, the Company
     implemented a restructuring program in September 1993. The Company's
     operations continued to perform below expectations during fiscal 1995.
     Further headcount reductions and consolidation of facilities were
     implemented in these subsidiaries as part of the Company's worldwide
     restructuring program in the second quarter of fiscal 1995 (see Note 8). In
     conjunction with the fiscal 1996 planning process, the Company's new
     management team completed a strategic and operational review of all
     operations. As a consequence of this review, management determined in the
     fourth quarter of fiscal 1995 that there was a permanent impairment in the
     Company's carrying value of its goodwill. This was based on the continued
     deteriorating operating results in Canada, France, and Germany; the need to
     recapitalize certain of these subsidiaries; and an assessment that the
     factors which contributed to the valuations at the time of the respective
     acquisitions were no longer in evidence. The Company discounted the
     expected future cash flows from these subsidiaries and determined that the
     goodwill had no future value.

     The charge to write-down capitalized software development costs and related
     other assets was approximately $3.2 million. Of this total, $2 million was
     primarily related to the cancellation of software development projects
     associated with the Company's decision to discontinue development efforts
     related to the Windows 3.1, 16-bit operating system to concentrate on
     development for the Windows 95 and Windows NT, 32-bit operating systems.
     The remaining $1.2 million write-down to net realizable value, included in
     product costs of revenue, related to revenue projections which no longer
     adequately supported the capitalized amounts associated with certain older
     software products.

     The unamortized portion of capitalized software development costs was
     $6,164,000 and $3,801,000 at March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
     Amortization and write-down to net realizable value of capitalized software
     development costs was approximately $3.2 million, $5.3 million, and $3.9
     million during fiscal 1996, 1995, and 1994, respectively.

N O T E  5 CREDIT AGREEMENT

     In May 1995, the Company obtained a revolving line of credit of up to $10
     million. The credit agreement also provides for the issuance of letters of
     credit of up to $2 million. Borrowings from the line of credit bear
     interest at the higher of 9% or prime rate plus 2% and are secured by
     substantially all domestic assets of the Company. Outstanding letters of
     credit bear interest at 2%. The credit agreement expires in May 1997, but
     may be extended annually for successive one year periods with the consent
     of the lender. At March 31, 1996, there were no loans outstanding under
     this line of credit. Borrowings under the credit agreement are based on the
     level of eligible North American accounts receivable, modified by cash
     collections during the previous 90 days. As of May 17, 1996, approximately
     $1.0 million of standby letters of credit were outstanding and the amount
     available for borrowings was approximately $3.3 million. The agreement
     contains certain financial covenants relating to the Company's current
     ratio, tangible net worth, and working capital, as well as restrictions on
     certain additional indebtedness, acquisitions, capital expenditures, and
     dividend payments.

N O T E  8 RESTRUCTURING

     Restructuring charges include costs associated with employee termination
     benefits and facility closures and related costs. Employee termination
     benefits include severance, wage continuation, notice pay and related
     fringe benefits. Facility closure and related costs include lease payments,
     lease buyout costs, disposal of property and equipment, and related costs.

     During the second quarter of fiscal 1994, the Company recorded a
     restructuring charge of approximately $3 million. The restructuring plan
     was to reduce employment by approximately 50 people and to consolidate four
     sales offices in North America and Europe.

     During the second quarter of fiscal 1995, as part of a Company
     reorganization and to reduce its size of operations, the Company recorded a
     restructuring charge of approximately $7.1 million. The restructuring plan
     was to reduce worldwide employment and to consolidate sales offices in
     North America and Europe. The employment reduction primarily related to the
     marketing, sales, general and administrative, and research and development
     groups. Approximately $4.6 million of the restructuring charge was for
     employee termination benefits and $2.5 million for facility closures and
     related costs. As a result of the restructuring program, worldwide
     employment was reduced by approximately 150 people, 19 sales offices were
     consolidated and a part of headquarters operations was relocated.

     From the accrued restructuring reserve, the Company paid approximately $0.7
     million and $4.4 million for employee termination benefits during fiscal
     1996 and 1995, respectively. Payments for facility closures and related
     costs, net of sublease receipts, were approximately $1.3 million and $1.2
     million during fiscal 1996 and 1995, respectively. Expenditures for
     facility closures, primarily lease payments, are anticipated to continue
     through the year 2000.

</TABLE>


     Realization of total deferred tax assets is contingent upon future taxable
     income. A 100% valuation allowance of net deferred tax assets has been
     established due to the uncertainty of realization of these tax benefits.
     The deferred tax asset valuation allowance increased $700,000 and
     $11,672,000 during fiscal 1996 and 1995, respectively, and by $2,282,000
     from the adoption of SFAS No. 109 on April 1, 1993 to March 31, 1994. In
     the second quarter of fiscal 1995 the Company recorded an adjustment of
     approximately $1.9 million to the beginning of the year balance when an
     analysis of the Company's actual and anticipated operating results
     indicated, at that time, that utilization of the deferred tax asset was not
     expected to be realized.

     At March 31, 1996, the Company and its subsidiaries had net operating loss
     carryforwards of approximately $38.8 million that are available to offset
     future taxable income. The loss carryforwards are attributable to
     operations in several tax jurisdictions and expire in 1998 and thereafter.
     In addition, the Company has research and development and other tax credit
     carryforwards of approximately $7.1 million available to reduce future
     federal and state income tax liabilities. The tax credit carryforwards
     expire in 1999 and thereafter. During fiscal 1996, 1995 and 1994, income
     tax payments made were approximately $252,000, zero, and $49,000,
     respectively.

N O T E  10 SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

     On July 15, 1988, the Company declared a dividend distribution of one
     Preferred Stock Purchase Right (a Right) for each outstanding share of the
     Company's common stock to shareholders of record on July 25, 1988 and for
     shares of the Company's common stock issued and outstanding thereafter.
     Each Right entitles the holder to purchase a unit consisting of one-
     hundredth of a share (a Unit) of Series A Junior Participating Preferred
     Stock, $.10 par value (the Preferred Stock), at a purchase price of $65.00
     in cash. The Rights initially trade with the shares of common stock and are
     not exercisable. The Rights will separate from the common stock and become
     exercisable 10 days after a public announcement that a person or group (an
     Acquiring Person) acquires beneficial ownership of 20% or more of the
     outstanding shares of common stock, or 10 business days after commencement
     of a tender offer that would result in a person or group beneficially
     owning 30% or more of the outstanding shares of common stock. In the event
     that the Company is not the surviving corporation in a merger with an
     Acquiring Person, or the acquisition of 25% of common stock by any person
     (except pursuant to a tender offer for all shares of common stock
     determined to be fair by certain directors of the Company), or upon certain
     self-dealing transactions or increases in an Acquiring Person's ownership
     of common stock, each holder of an outstanding Right other than an
     Acquiring Person will receive, upon exercise of a Right, the number of
     shares of the Company's common stock that equals the exercise price of the
     Right divided by one half of the current market price of the Company's
     common stock. In the event that the Company is not the surviving
     corporation in a merger, or if more than 50% of its assets or earning power
     is sold or transferred after any person has become an Acquiring Person,
     each holder of an outstanding Right other than any Acquiring Person will
     receive, upon exercise of a Right, the number of shares of common stock of
     the acquiring company that equals the exercise price of the Right divided
     by one half of the current market price of the acquiring company's common
     stock. The Rights are non-voting, expire on July 15, 1998 and may be
     redeemed at any time prior to becoming exercisable at a price of $.01 per
     Right.

     On September 29, 1989, the Company completed a private placement of
     2,142,857 shares of its Senior Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, at
     $7.00 per share. In the event of liquidation, the Series B holders have a
     liquidation preference over all other shareholders of the Company and are
     entitled to receive $7.00 per share. Thereafter, all other shareholders are
     entitled to receive, on a per share basis, an amount equal to $15 million
     divided by the total number of shares of common stock that the Series B
     holders would have been entitled to receive upon conversion. Finally, the
     Series B holders and common shareholders share ratably in the remainder, if
     any, with each share of Series B being deemed to have been converted to
     common stock. Series B holders are entitled to vote on all matters
     submitted to the common shareholders as a single class with the common
     shareholders, receiving the number of votes equal to the number of common
     shares that they would have received upon conversion, except that the
     Series B holders are entitled to elect one director, and the Company needs
     the approval of the majority of the Series B holders on certain significant
     events.

     The Series B holders can convert each share of preferred stock into 1.34375
     shares of common stock. Series B holders converted 805,269, 57,142, and
     142,857 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock into shares of the
     Company's common stock during fiscal 1996, 1995, and 1994, respectively.

     The Senior Series B Convertible Preferred Stock may be redeemed by the
     Company at $21.00 per share, at any time, provided at least 20% of the then
     outstanding shares of Senior Series B Convertible Preferred Stock are
     redeemed. Preferred shareholders shall share ratably in any dividends
     declared on the common stock, as if each Series B share had been converted
     to common stock.

     The Company had issued warrants to purchase the Company's common stock at
     various prices in connection with certain research and development
     agreements and exclusive distribution agreements. The Company issued
     366,113 and 72,368 shares of common stock in connection with the exercise
     of warrants during fiscal 1996 and 1995, respectively. The Company received
     no proceeds upon the conversion of the warrants into common stock. There
     are no warrants outstanding as of March 31, 1996.

     STOCK OPTION PLANS: The Company has stock option plans that provide for the
     granting of non-qualified and incentive stock options to employees,
     consultants, and officers. The Board of Directors determines the option
     price, the option term, and the vesting period. Incentive stock options are
     granted at a price not less than the fair market value on the date of
     grant. On July 14, 1994, the Board of Directors adopted the 1994 Employee
     Stock Option Plan which provides for a maximum of 750,000 shares of common
     stock to be issued and sold under the plan. On August 3, 1994, the Board of
     Directors authorized the repricing of approximately 746,000 stock options
     and the cancellation and re-grant of approximately 297,000 stock options
     ranging in price from $4.00 to $19.38 to the fair market value of $2.75 on
     that date. At the Annual Meeting of Shareholders on August 17, 1995,
     shareholders approved an amendment to the Company's 1993 Stock Option Plan
     to increase the number of shares of common stock available for issuance
     under the plan by 750,000.

     At March 31, 1996, there were approximately 695,000 shares available for
     grant. Options exercisable were approximately 912,000, 915,000, and 916,000
     at March 31, 1996, 1995, and 1994, respectively. In May 1996, the Board of
     Directors approved an amendment to the Company's 1994 Employee Stock Option
     Plan to increase the number of shares of common stock available for
     issuance under the plan by 750,000.

     The Company also has stock option plans for non-employee directors. In
     September 1993, the Board of Directors approved, with subsequent
     ratification by the shareholders, the Company's 1993 Director Stock Option
     Plan. The 1993 Director Stock Option Plan replaced the 1989 Director Stock
     Option Plan. Options are granted at the fair market value at date of grant
     and are exercisable one year later. Each non-employee director received a
     grant of 5,000 options at the inception of the 1993 Director Stock Option
     Plan. Each newly elected non-employee director receives a grant of 5,000
     options as of the first date of his or her election as a director. Every
     April 1, each non-employee director automatically receives a grant of 5,000
     options. During fiscal 1996, 10,000 options were exercised. At March 31,
     1996, there were options outstanding to purchase 105,000 shares and 65,000
     shares were available for grant. Options exercisable were 105,000, 85,000,
     and 36,000 at March 31, 1996, 1995, and 1994, respectively.

     EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN: The Company's Employee Stock Purchase Plan
     allows eligible officers and employees to withhold up to 10% of their total
     compensation to purchase shares of the Company's common stock. The purchase
     price is 85% of the fair market value of the stock on the date a one-year
     offering commences or the date an offering terminates, whichever is lower.
     Shares issued to employees were approximately 157,000, 208,000, and 182,000
     during fiscal 1996, 1995, and 1994, respectively.

     At March 31, 1996, approximately 4,500,000 shares of common stock were
     reserved for issuance primarily related to Series B Convertible Preferred
     Stock, various stock option plans and the Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

N O T E  11 EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

     The Company's retirement savings plan (401(k) plan) allows eligible
     employees to make tax-deferred contributions. Participants in the 401(k)
     plan may contribute up to 20% of their total annual compensation, not to
     exceed the specified statutory limit. Participants are 100% vested in their
     own contributions. The 401(k) plan permits, but does not require, the
     Company to make contributions to the 401(k) plan. The Company made
     contributions of $100,000 during fiscal 1995; no contributions were made
     during fiscal 1996 and 1994.

N O T E  12 RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT

     In October 1988, the Company entered into a joint venture (the Venture)
     with PruTech Research and Development Partnership III (PruTech), for the
     purpose of developing and marketing certain products. PruTech contributed
     approximately $2,950,000 in cash to the Venture; the Company licensed to
     the Venture certain base technology and was required to perform certain
     development, marketing and administrative services for the Venture.

     In March 1994, PruTech commenced an arbitration action against the Company,
     alleging, among other things, (i) that the Company had mismanaged the
     Venture; (ii) that PruTech was entitled to cash distributions of 30% of
     Venture revenues; and (iii) that certain Venture-owned technology was used
     in the Company's other products. In November 1995, the Company and PruTech
     reached an agreement. The Company paid PruTech $2.1 million (the Purchase
     Price) in consideration of (i) the acquisition by the Company of PruTech's
     interest in the Venture, and (ii) the settlement of the pending arbitration
     action and the release by PruTech of all claims that it may have had
     against the Company arising out of the formation and operation of the
     Venture. The Company issued to PruTech 190,000 common stock shares for
     payment of the Purchase Price. The settlement of the arbitration action
     resulted in an expense reduction of approximately $1.2 million, which is
     included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the
     Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Venture-owned technology
     acquired by the Company was valued at $1.4 million and is included in
     Intangible assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The technology is
     being amortized in the same manner as other capitalized software
     development costs.

N O T E  13 ACQUISITIONS

     On June 16, 1993, the Company purchased all of the outstanding equity
     securities of Avalanche Development Company (Avalanche) for cash of
     $5,500,000. Avalanche is a leading provider of document analysis and
     conversion technology and services, with particular emphasis on Standard
     Generalized Markup Language (SGML), the leading international standard for
     electronic interchange of documents and data.

     The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting,
     whereby the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and
     liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values as of the date of
     the acquisition. In connection with this acquisition, a portion of the
     purchase price was allocated to purchased in-process research and
     development, resulting in a charge to the Company's operations of
     $3,985,000. The charge was not deductible for tax purposes.

     On May 1, 1996, the Company purchased all of the outstanding equity
     securities of The Learning Alliance, Inc. (TLA) for $2,690,000. The Company
     issued approximately 350,000 shares of common stock to the selling
     shareholders of TLA for the entire purchase amount. TLA provides sales
     training services and develops and markets related software for the sales
     force automation and integration marketplace. The acquisition will be
     accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.

N O T E  14 CONTINGENCIES

     In the ordinary course of its business activities, the Company is subject
     to various investigations, claims and legal proceedings. Each of these
     matters is subject to various uncertainties, and it is possible that some
     of these matters may be resolved unfavorably to the Company. Management
     believes that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a
     material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations
     of the Company.

     Interleaf's German subsidiary, Interleaf GmbH, has been notified that it is
     liable for certain German withholding taxes related to payments remitted to
     the United States from Germany. The Company is appealing this assessment;
     however, approximately $1.1 million of the cash and cash equivalents
     balance at March 31, 1996 has been restricted for potential payment of the
     German withholding taxes. The Company believes the final outcome will not
     have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of
     operations of the Company.

REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP, INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

Board of Directors 
Interleaf, Inc. 


     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Interleaf,
     Inc. as of March 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related consolidated statements
     of operations, changes in shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of
     the three years in the period ended March 31, 1996. These financial
     statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
     responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
     on our audits. 
     
     We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
     standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
     obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
     of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
     evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
     statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used
     and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
     overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits
     provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
     
     In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
     in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Interleaf,
     Inc. at March 31, 1996 and 1995, and the consolidated results of its
     operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period

The dilutive effect of stock options, stock purchase warrants, and stock
purchase plan rights are calculated using the treasury stock method. Under this
method, these common stock equivalents are assumed to be exercised and proceeds
from the exercise are assumed to be used to repurchase common stock at the
average market price for primary income (loss) per share and the higher of the
end of the period or average market price for fully diluted income (loss) per
share. The dilutive effect of Convertible Preferred Stock is calculated using
the if-converted method.
