Item 6.             Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings in Relationship with
                    Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

                    In connection  with its  acquisition of securities  reported
herein, the Subscription Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit B is incorporated
herein by reference in response to this Item 6.

                    On January 9, 1998, certain of the Reporting Persons entered
into an amendment to the  Subscription  Agreement (the  "Amendment"),  a form of
which is attached  hereto as Exhibit C and  incorporated  herein by reference in
response  to this Item 6.  Pursuant  to Section 3 of the  Amendment,  the Issuer
shall use its best efforts to cause the Restricted  Shares to be registered with
the Securities and Exchange  Commission (the  "Commission) on or before the 45th
day after the Issuer first accepts a subscription in the offering for which this
Subscription  Agreement is being  tendered  through the filing of a registration
statement on Form S-3 or such other form as may be  available to the Issuer.  If
the  registration  statement is not declared  effective by the  Commission on or
before such date, then on that date, and every 30th day  thereafter,  the Issuer
shall issue to the  undersigned a quantity of  Restricted  Shares equal to 5% of
the Restricted  Shares  subscribed  for by the  undersigned  without  additional
consideration  provided,  however that the aggregate number of Restricted Shares
which the Issuer  shall be  obligated  to issue  under this  section 3 shall not

portfolio securities to brokers,  banks or other financial  institutions.  These
loans  typically  obligate  the borrower to return the  securities,  or an equal
amount of securities of the same class, to the lender and typically provide that
the  borrower  is entitled to  exercise  voting  rights and to retain  dividends
during  the term of the  loan.  From  time to time to the  extent  permitted  by
applicable  laws, each of such persons or entities may borrow the Shares for the
purpose of effecting, and may effect, short sale transactions,  and may purchase
securities for the purpose of closing out short positions in such securities.

                    Except as set forth  herein,  the  Reporting  Persons do not
have any contracts,  arrangements,  understandings or relationships with respect
to any securities of the Issuer.

Mr. Richard DeRose
Executive Vice President
Information Analysis Incorporated
11240 Waples Mill Road
Suite 400
Fairfax, VA 22030

Dear Mr. DeRose:

          In connection with the offering by Information  Analysis  Incorporated
("IAI") of a minimum of 227,273 and a maximum of 454,545  shares of its $.01 par
value Common Stock (the "Shares"),  the undersigned hereby purchases that number
of Shares and hereby  tenders  the  amount in payment  thereof  set forth on the
Signature Page to this Agreement.

               1.  Representations,  Warranties  and Covenants of the Purchaser.
                   ------------------------------------------------------------ 
The  undersigned  (jointly and  severally  if more than one) hereby  represents,
warrants and covenants as follows:

                    a. The  undersigned  acknowledges  receipt  of a copy of the
Investor   Qualification   Questionnaire  attached  hereto  as  Exhibit  A.  The
undersigned  has received,  and has had an opportunity  to review,  all of IAI's
current  annual,  quarterly and periodic  reports filed with the  Securities and
Exchange  Commission  pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "1934
Act Reports.") The  undersigned  further  acknowledges  that the undersigned has
read the Investor Qualification Questionnaire,  and the 1934 Act Reports and has
relied solely upon the  information  contained  therein and upon  investigations
made by the undersigned in making the decision to purchase the Shares hereunder.

                    b. The  undersigned  has adequate means of providing for the
undersigned's current needs and possible personal  contingencies and has no need
for liquidity in this  investment and the undersigned can bear the economic risk
and/or entire loss of any investment in the Shares. The undersigned's commitment
to illiquid  investments  is  reasonable  in relation to the  undersigned's  net
worth.

                    c. The  undersigned is acquiring the Shares without  relying
upon any sales literature, prospectus, or other written materials other than the
1934 Act Reports  including the exhibits  thereto,  and has  investigated to the
undersigned's satisfaction the nature and risks inherent in this investment, and
has relied solely on the  investigations  made by the  undersigned in making the
decision to invest in the Shares.

                    d. The  undersigned  is  acquiring  the Shares in good faith
solely for the undersigned's own account, for investment purposes and not with a
view to resale,  fractionalization,  disposition or  distribution  of all or any
part  thereof.  The  undersigned  will be the  sole  party in  interest  in this
investment and will be vested with all legal and equitable rights in the Shares.
The  undersigned  is aware  that  there are legal  and  practical  limits on the
undersigned's ability to sell or dispose of the Shares, and, therefore, that the
undersigned  must bear the economic  risk of the  investment  for an  indefinite
period of time.

                    e. The undersigned  recognizes that a purchase of the Shares
involves  investment  risks and the undersigned has taken full cognizance of and
understands all of the risk factors related to the purchase of the Shares.

                    f. The  undersigned  understands  that the  Shares are being
offered  and sold in  reliance  on  specific  exemptions  from the  registration
requirements  of  federal  and  applicable  state  securities  laws and that the
representations,  warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings set
forth  herein are  necessary  in order to determine  the  applicability  of such
exemptions.

               If the undersigned is purchasing the Shares subscribed for hereby
in a fiduciary  capacity,  the above  representations  and  warranties  shall be
deemed  to have  been made on  behalf  of the  person  or  persons  for whom the
undersigned is so purchasing.

               2.   Acknowledgments   and  Indemnity  of  the   Purchaser.   The
                    -----------------------------------------------------
undersigned understands, recognizes and acknowledges that:

                    a. This  subscription  may be accepted or rejected by IAI in
whole or in part in its sole and  absolute  discretion.  In the  event  that the
offer to sell the Shares is terminated or in the event that any  subscription is
rejected by IAI in whole or in part for any reason,  the undersigned  shall have
no claim of any kind  against  IAI or any  officer,  director,  or agent of IAI,
including, without limitation, any claim as to any ownership interest in IAI.

                    b. No federal or state  agency has  recommended  or endorsed
the purchase of the Shares.

                    c. The Shares have not been registered  under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"),  or any  applicable  state  securities
laws by reason of exemptions from the registration  requirements of the 1933 Act
and such laws, and may not be sold, pledged,  assigned, or otherwise disposed of
in the absence of an effective  registration statement under the 1933 Act unless
an exemption from such registration is available.

                    d. The  undersigned  will  not  attempt  to sell,  transfer,
assign,  pledge, or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of the undersigned's
Shares, unless registration of the Shares occurs.

                    e. The undersigned  has been provided with such  information
as has been requested.  In addition, the undersigned has at all times been given
the  opportunity  to obtain  additional  information  necessary  to  verify  the
accuracy of the  information  received and the  opportunity to ask questions of,
and receive answers from, IAI concerning the terms and conditions of the sale of
the Shares and the nature and prospects of IAI's operations.

                    f. The  offer to sell the  Shares  was  communicated  to the
undersigned  directly by IAI or its representative,  and not through any form of
general   advertising  or   solicitation   such  as   advertisements   or  other
communications  in newspapers,  magazines or other media,  broadcast on radio or
television, seminars or promotional meetings or any generally circulated letter,
circular or other written communication.

                    g. The  undersigned  agrees to indemnify IAI, its respective
officers,  directors,  shareholders,  employees, and their attorneys and agents,
and hold  each of them  harmless  from and  against  any and all  loss,  damage,
liability or expense,  including costs and reasonable  attorneys' fees, to which
any such persons may be put or may incur by reason of or in connection  with any
misrepresentation  made by the  undersigned,  any  breach  of the  undersigned's
representations  and warranties or the  undersigned's  failure to fulfill any of
its covenants or agreements under this Subscription Agreement. This Subscription
Agreement  and the  representations  and  warranties  contained  herein shall be
binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns of the
undersigned.

                    h.  If the  undersigned  is a  corporation,  partnership  or
trust, the undersigned (i) is authorized and duly qualified to purchase and hold
the  Shares;  (ii) has its  principal  place  of  business  as set  forth in the

waiver,  as set forth in section 14 of the 1933 Act, of rights  with  respect to
any provision of the 1933 Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission.

               3. Best  Efforts  Registration  Obligation  of IAI;  Issuance  of

RE:  Amendment to Subscription Agreement
     -----------------------------------

          This acknowledges  receipt of your Subscription  Agreement to purchase
shares in a private  placement of the common stock, $.01 par value per share, of
Information Analysis Incorporated ("IAI").

          This Amendment to  Subscription  Agreement  modifies the  Subscription
Agreement. All capitalized terms shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the
Subscription  Agreement.  IAI  proposes to amend the  Subscription  Agreement as
follows:

          1)   The maximum number of Shares offered is changed to 545,455

          2)   Section  3 is  deleted  and in  lieu  thereof  the  following  is
               inserted:

          3)   Best  Efforts   Registration   Obligation  of  IAI;  Issuance  of
               -----------------------------------------------------------------
               Additional  Shares. IAI agrees that it shall use its best efforts
               ------------------
               to cause the Shares purchased by the undersigned to be registered
               by the Securities  and Exchange  Commission on or before the 45th
               day  after  the date IAI  first  accepts  a  subscription  in the
               offering for which this Subscription  Agreement is being tendered
               through  the filing of a  registration  statement  on Form S-3 or
               such other form as may be available  to IAI. If the  registration
               statement  is  not  declared  effective  by  the  Securities  and
               Exchange  Commission  on or before such date,  then on that date,
               and every 30th day thereafter, IAI shall issue to the undersigned
               a quantity of Shares equal to 5% of the Shares  subscribed for by
               the  undersigned  without  additional   consideration   provided,
               however  that the  aggregate  number of Shares which IAI shall be
               obligated  to issue under this  section 3 shall not exceed 20% of
               the total shares which the undersigned purchases hereunder.

          4)   Section  4(a) is deleted  and in lieu  thereof the  following  is
               inserted:

               4.   Offering  Minimum  and  Maximum;   Minimum   Purchase.   The
                    -----------------------------------------------------
                    undersigned and IAI agree that:

               (a)

               (i) The  minimum  number  of Shares  which  must be issued in the
               offering to which this  Subscription  Agreement  relates shall be
               227,273 (the "Offering Minimum"). Pending receipt of the Offering
               Minimum all funds  received  shall be held by IAI in a segregated
               account. In addition to the Offering Minimum,  IAI shall have the
               right to issue an additional 318,182 Shares,  said Shares and the
               Offering  Minimum  constituting  a total of 545,455  Shares.  The
               offering  of  Shares  shall  expire  on  February  6,  1998  (the
               "Termination  Date").  If subscriptions  for the Offering Minimum
               are not received by IAI on or before the  Termination  Date,  all
               subscription  funds  will  be  returned  to  subscribers  without
               interest.

               (ii) If IAI receives  subscriptions  for the Offering  Minimum or
               more Shares prior to the  Termination  Date,  IAI may accept such
               subscriptions as IAI in its sole discretion deems appropriate.
