EXPLANATORY NOTE
On September 17, 1998, Fonix Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the
"Company" or "Fonix"), filed a Current Report on Form 8-K dated as of September
2, 1998, and pertaining to the Merger of Articulate Systems, Inc., a Delaware
corporation with and into ASI Acquisition Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary
of the Company. On November 16, 1998, the Company filed Amendment No. 1 to the
Current Report to submit the audited and unaudited financial statements of
Articulate Systems, Inc., and certain pro forma financial information required
by Item 7 of Form 8-K. This Amendment No. 2 is filed to provide revised pro
forma financial information and related notes to reflect the revised valuation
of purchased in-process research and development. Because the audited and
unaudited financial statements filed with Amendment No. 1 did not change, the
Company is not refiling the audited or unaudited financial statements.

Fonix Corporation and Subsidiaries
[A Development Stage Company]
NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING
STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The Company created a wholly owned subsidiary for the purpose of acquiring
Articulate Systems, Inc. ("ASI"), a Massachusetts corporation, in September
1998. After the acquisition, the subsidiary changed its name to fonix/Articulate
Systems, Inc. ("fonix/Articulate"). fonix/Articulate is a provider of
sophisticated voice recognition products to specialized segments of the health
care industry. The merger was closed on September 2, 1998, in connection with
which the Company exchanged 5,140,751 shares of restricted common stock (having
a market value of $8,353,720 on that date), cash payment of $7,787,249 and 8.5
percent demand notes in the aggregate amount of $4,747,339 for all of the then
outstanding common shares of ASI. Additionally, the Company issued 98,132 stock
options in exchange for all of ASI's stock options outstanding on the date of
acquisition at an exchange rate based on the relative fair values of the
companies' common stocks. The estimated fair value of the options was $130,000
using the Black-Scholes option pricing method. The ASI acquisition was accounted
for as a purchase. The results of operations of fonix/Articulate have been
included in the historical results of operations of fonix from September 2,
1998, the date of the acquisition.
The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair market value of the
acquired tangible net assets of ASI was $23,714,256, of which $13,945,000 was
capitalized as purchased core technology, $5,948,256 was capitalized as goodwill
and $3,821,000 was expensed as purchased in-process research and development.
The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of
operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 and the nine months ended
September 30, 1998, present the results of operations of the Company as if the
acquisition of ASI had occurred on January 1, 1997. The pro forma results have
been prepared for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to be indicative
of the results which would have occurred had the acquisition been effected on
January 1, 1997, nor are they indicative of actual or future operating results.
These unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations should
be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and
the notes thereto included in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998 and the historical financial
statements of ASI and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this report on
Form 8-K/A.
Note 2. Pro Forma Adjustments
(a) Amortization of $13,945,000 in purchased core technology and
$5,948,256 in goodwill, which are being amortized on a
straight-line basis over eight years.
(b) Interest on 8.5 percent demand notes issued to ASI
shareholders for 1997 and from January 1, 1998, through the
date of acquisition.
(c) Issuance of 5,140,751 shares of restricted common stock in
connection with the acquisition. The change in the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding for the nine
months ended September 30, 1998 is the incremental increase
for the period through the date of acquisition.
(d) Purchased in-process research and development in the amount of
$3,821,000 was expensed at the date of the acquisition. This
expense is a non recurring charge directly attributable to the
acquisition and is therefore eliminated from the pro forma
condensed consolidating statement of operations for the nine
months ended September 30, 1998.
(e) Dividends and beneficial conversion features related to the
issuance of Series D 4% Convertible Preferred Stock which were
used to fund the cash portion of the purchase price of ASI.
