Item 2.

     (a-c) This statement is being filed by Amerindo Investment Advisors Inc., a
California corporation whose principal executive offices are located at One
Embarcadero Center, Suite 2300, San Francisco, California, 94111 ("Amerindo"),
Amerindo Advisors (U.K.) Limited, a United Kingdom corporation whose principal
executive offices are located at 43 Upper Grosvenor Street, London WIX 9PG
England ("Amerindo UK"), Amerindo Investment Advisors, Inc., a Panama
corporation, whose principal executive offices are located at Edificio Sucre,
Calle 48 Este, Bella Vista, Apartado 6277, Panama 5, Panama ("Amerindo Panama")
the Amerindo Advisors (UK) Limited Retirements Benefits Scheme, whose address 
is 43 Upper Grosvenor Street, London WIX 9PG England (the "Retirement 
Benefits Scheme"), Alberto W. Vilar, Gary A. Tanaka, James P.F. Stableford 
and Renata Le Port (sometimes hereinafter collectively referred to as the 
"Reporting Persons").  Although this statement is being made jointly by
the Reporting Persons, each of them expressly disaffirms membership in any 
group under Rule 13d-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended 
(the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise.  Amerindo, Amerindo UK and Amerindo 
Panama are sometimes hereinafter collectively referred to as the 
"Advisor Entities."

           Each of the Advisor Entities is an investment advisor, and all of the
subject securities have been purchased by the Advisor Entities (or, in the case
of securities held, by the Retirement Benefits Scheme) in the ordinary course 
of their respective businesses as investment advisors and not with the purpose 
of effecting changing or influencing the control of the issuer or in connection 
with or as a participant in any transaction having such purpose or effect,

Amerindo is registered as an investment advisor under the Investment Advisors 
Act of 1940, as amended, and Amerindo UK is registered with the Investment 
Management Regulatory Organization in the United Kingdom.  Messrs. Vilar and

Entities, and Messrs. Alberto W. Vilar, Gary A. Tanaka, James P. F. 
Stableford and Ms. Renata Le Port are joint trustees of the Retirement 
Benefits Scheme (which is a qualified employee benefit plan).  Because each 
of the Advisor Entities is obligated to act in the best interests of its 
respective clients and in accordance with the respective mandates of those 
clients and because the trustees of the Retirement Benefits Scheme are 
required to act in the best interest of the beneficiaries thereof, there is 
no agreement between or among any of the Reporting Persons to act together 
with respect to the issuer or its securities, except that they may, from 
time to time and provided that transactions are otherwise being effected at 
the same time, aggregate orders for client accounts in order to receive more 
favorable trading terms.

     (d-e) This statement is being filed as to the Common Stock of 
Pure Atria Corporation, Cusip Number 746217108.

     (h)   This statement is being filed jointly by the Reporting Persons, 
although each of them expressly disaffirms membership in any group under Rule
13d-5 under the Exchange Act.

Item 4.  Ownership.
- ------   ---------

     (a-c) The following table sets forth for each of the Advisor Entities and
for the Plan the aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer
beneficially owned by such person as of August 31, 1996, and the percentage
which such shares constitute of the total number of shares outstanding, as 
communicated by the company subsequent to the merger of Atria Software, Inc. 
into Pure Software, Inc. with beneficial ownership determined as set forth in 
Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, but with beneficial ownership being 
expressly disclaimed). Messrs. Vilar and Tanaka, as the sole shareholders and 
directors of the Advisor Entities, share with each other investment and 
dispositive power as to all of the shares shown as owned by the Advisor 
Entities, who otherwise have sole investment and dispositive power with 
respect thereto, except that each client of the Advisor Entities has the 
unilateral right to terminate the advisory agreement with the Advisor Entity 
in question on notice which typically need not exceed 30 days.  Messrs. 
Alberto W. Vilar, Gary A. Tanaka, James P. F. Stableford and Ms. Renata 
Le Port are joint trustees of the Retirement Benefits Scheme.
