                            INTRANET SOLUTIONS, INC.

     IntraNet Solutions is a leading provider of Web content management
solutions for intranets, extranets and the Internet. Our Xpedio Content
Management Suite offers customers the ability to simplify and automate
management of Web content from all sources. We address an organization's complex
needs in publishing, updating and maintaining its Web sites by providing a
comprehensive solution that eliminates administrative bottlenecks and
automatically publishes content from native formats directly to the Web.

     Xpedio gives every content contributor in an organization the ability to
automatically Web-publish content to Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) and
Extensible Markup Language (XML) Web sites from native desktop formats. Our
solution is based on open Web standards and Java server architecture and
integrates with an organization's existing security model. Xpedio keeps Web
content current and gives it the desired "look and feel," while maintaining the
source content in both Web and native formats. By allowing content contributors
to directly participate in the Web publishing process, Xpedio automates the
manual content conversion and publication tasks usually required of Webmasters.
This reduces errors, provides information more rapidly to users and allows
Webmasters to focus on site architecture and "look and feel" enhancements.

     The market for our products is growing quickly as Web content increases
rapidly in both amount and importance with the expansion of the Internet. Web
content, including graphics, audio and video clips, hyperlinked text and
executable software, is the basis for every Web page and most e-commerce
applications. International Data Corporation, or IDC, estimates that the number
of Web pages will grow from 925 million in 1998 to 13.1 billion in 2003. In
addition, the overall market for business-to-business software tools, which
includes content management software, is projected to reach approximately $40.0
billion by 2002, according to The Delphi Group. IDC estimates that the worldwide
market for content and document management software will expand from $1.0
billion in 1998 to $4.3 billion in 2003.

     Our comprehensive solution, applicable across a wide variety of industries
and Web applications, enables organizations to effectively utilize their content
on the Web. Since our first Web-based software products were introduced in
fiscal 1997, they have been adopted by over 800 customers for use on one or more
of their intranet, extranet and Internet Web sites. Xpedio, which was introduced
in September 1999, has gained strong market acceptance and represented over
fifty percent of our revenues for product licenses in the third quarter of
fiscal 2000. Customer uses of our products have ranged from single workgroups to
enterprise-wide deployments. Our customers include organizations such as British
Aerospace Airbus, Ltd., Cargill Incorporated, Ericsson Telecom AB, GE Capital
Corporation and Hewlett-Packard Company.

     IntraNet Solutions was incorporated in Minnesota in 1989. Our executive
offices are located at 8091 Wallace Road, Eden Prairie, Minnesota 55344; our
telephone number is 612-903-2000; and our Web site is located at

- -------------------------
(1) Based on the number of shares outstanding as of December 31, 1999, and
    includes 140,000 shares included in this offering that are issuable upon the
    exercise of outstanding stock options. This number does not include
    2,417,509 shares issuable upon the exercise of other options then
    outstanding, with a weighted average exercise price of $5.28 per share;
    765,371 shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants, with a weighted
    average exercise price of $3.74 per share; and approximately 885,000 shares
    reserved for issuance in connection with future stock options and other
    awards under the 1994-1997 Stock Option Plan, the 1997 Director Stock Option
    Plan and the 1999 Employee Stock Option and Compensation Plan. See
    "Capitalization" and Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

(2) Excludes the following amounts related to our hardware integration and
    support business, the sale of which was completed in September 1998:
    revenues of $15,277 in 1997, $16,477 in 1998, $5,629 in 1999 and $5,629 in
    the nine months ended December 31, 1998; cost of revenues of $11,894 in
    1997, $12,883 in 1998, $4,601 in 1999 and $4,601 in the nine months ended
    December 31, 1998; and gross profit of $3,383 in 1997, $3,594 in 1998,
    $1,028 in 1999 and $1,028 in the nine months ended December 31, 1998.

(3) The information set forth above excludes the effect of dividends
    attributable to our Series A and Series B convertible preferred stock. Such
    dividends, $1,665 in 1998, $718 in 1999 and $712 in the nine months ended
    December 31, 1998, reflect the aggregate of cash dividends paid and the
    value associated with the discount conversion feature provided with each
    series of preferred stock. No shares of Series A or Series B convertible
    preferred stock are currently outstanding.

(4) The as adjusted amounts reflect the sale by IntraNet Solutions of 2,255,000
    shares of common stock in this offering, at an assumed offering price of
    $36.25 per share, after deducting the underwriting discount and estimated
    offering expenses and the issuance of 140,000 shares of common stock
    included in this offering, which shares were issued to selling shareholders
    upon the exercise of stock options with exercise prices ranging from $0.20
    to $6.56 per share. See "Use of Proceeds" and "Capitalization."

                                  RISK FACTORS

     This offering involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider
the risks and uncertainties described below and the other information in this
prospectus before deciding whether to invest in shares of our common stock. Any
of the following risks may cause our business, operating results and financial
condition to be materially adversely affected. This could cause the trading
price of our common stock to decline, and you may lose part or all of your
investment.

     This prospectus also contains certain forward-looking statements that
involve risks and uncertainties. These statements relate to our future plans,
objectives, expectations and intentions. These statements may be identified by
the use of words such as "believes," "expects," "may," "will," "could,"
"should," "seeks," "pro forma," "as adjusted" or "anticipates," and similar
expressions. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in
these statements. Factors that could contribute to these differences include
those discussed below and elsewhere in this prospectus.

WE HAVE A LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY ON WHICH TO EVALUATE OUR PROSPECTS.

     Significant sales of our Xpedio Content Management Suite, which includes
Xpedio Content Server, Xpedio Content Publisher and Xpedio Web Asset Management,
began following our acquisition of InfoAccess, Inc. in September 1999.
Accordingly, we have only a limited operating history in our current product
line on which you can base your evaluation of our business and prospects. In
addition, our prospects must be considered in light of the risks and
uncertainties encountered by companies in an early stage of development in new
and rapidly evolving markets. Many of these risks are discussed under the
subheadings below.

FLUCTUATIONS IN OUR OPERATING RESULTS MAY MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO PREDICT OUR
FUTURE PERFORMANCE.

     Our revenues and operating results are difficult to predict and may
fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter. If our quarterly revenues or
operating results fall below the expectations of investors or securities
analysts, the price of our common stock could fall substantially. A large part
of our sales typically occur in the last month of a quarter. If these sales were
delayed from one quarter to the next for any reason, our operating results could
fluctuate dramatically. In addition, our sales cycles may vary, making the
timing of sales difficult to predict. Furthermore, our infrastructure costs are
generally fixed. As a result, modest fluctuations in revenues between quarters
may cause large fluctuations in operating results. These factors all tend to
make the timing of revenues unpredictable and may lead to high period-to-period
fluctuations in operating results.

     Our quarterly revenues and operating results may fluctuate for several
additional reasons, many of which are outside of our control, including the
following:

     - demand for our products and services;

     - the timing of new product introductions and sales of our products and
       services;

     - unexpected delays in introducing new products and services;

     - increased expenses, whether related to sales and marketing, research and
       development or administration;

     - changes in the rapidly evolving market for Web content management
       solutions;

     - the mix of revenues from product licenses and services, as well as the
       mix of products licensed;

     - the mix of services provided and whether services are provided by our
       staff or third-party contractors;

                                        6
<PAGE>   8

     - the mix of domestic and international sales;

     - costs related to possible acquisitions of technology or businesses;

     - general economic conditions; and

     - public announcements by our competitors.

OUR SUCCESS DEPENDS ON OUR ABILITY TO EXPAND OUR SALES FORCE AND DISTRIBUTION
CHANNELS.

     To increase our market share and revenues, we must increase the size of our
sales force and the number of our distribution channel partners. Our failure to
do so may have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and
financial condition. There is intense competition for sales personnel in our
business, and we cannot be sure that we will be successful in attracting,
integrating, motivating and retaining new sales personnel. Our existing or
future distribution channel partners may choose to devote greater resources to
marketing and supporting the products of other companies. In addition, we will
need to resolve potential conflicts among our sales force and distribution
channel partners.

POTENTIAL ACQUISITIONS MAY BE DIFFICULT TO COMPLETE OR TO INTEGRATE AND MAY
DIVERT MANAGEMENT'S ATTENTION.

     We may seek to acquire or invest in businesses, products or technologies
that are complementary to our business. If we identify an appropriate
acquisition opportunity, we may be unable to negotiate favorable terms for that
acquisition, successfully finance the acquisition or integrate the new business
or products into our existing business and operations. In addition, the
negotiation of potential acquisitions and the integration of acquired businesses
or products may divert management time and resources from our existing business
and operations. To finance acquisitions, we may use a substantial portion of our
available cash, including proceeds of this offering, or we may issue additional
securities, which would cause dilution to our shareholders.

WE MAY NOT BE PROFITABLE IN THE FUTURE.

     Our revenues may not grow in future periods, may not grow at past rates and
we may not sustain our recent quarterly profitability (excluding expenses
incurred in connection with the acquisition of InfoAccess in the quarter ended
September 30, 1999). If we do not sustain our recent quarterly profitability,
the market price of our stock may fall. Our ability to sustain our recent
profitable operations depends upon many factors beyond our direct control. These
factors include, but are not limited to:

     - the demand for our products;

     - our ability to quickly introduce new products;

     - the level of product and price competition;

     - our ability to control costs; and

     - general economic conditions.

OUR SUCCESS DEPENDS ON OUR ABILITY TO SUCCESSFULLY INTEGRATE INFOACCESS, INC.
WITH OUR OPERATIONS.

     On September 29, 1999, we acquired InfoAccess, Inc. in a transaction
accounted for as a pooling-of-interests. We are currently integrating the
business and products of InfoAccess with our existing business and products. We
may incur unanticipated costs in the course of this integration. In addition,
the integration of InfoAccess with our operations involves the following risks:

     - failure to develop complementary product offerings and marketing
       strategies;

     - failure to maintain the customer relationships of InfoAccess;

                                        7
<PAGE>   9

     - failure to retain the employees of InfoAccess;

     - failure to coordinate product development efforts; and

     - diversion of management's time and attention from other aspects of our
       business.

     We cannot be sure that we will be successful in integrating the business
and products of InfoAccess with our business and products. If we are not, our
business, operating results and financial condition may be materially adversely
affected.

THE INTENSE COMPETITION IN OUR INDUSTRY MAY REDUCE OUR FUTURE SALES AND PROFITS.

     The market for our products is highly competitive and is likely to become
more competitive. We may not be able to compete successfully in our chosen
marketplace, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, operating
results and financial condition. Additional competition may cause pricing
pressure, reduced sales and margins, or prevent our products from gaining and
sustaining market acceptance. Many of our current and potential competitors have
greater name recognition, access to larger customer bases, and substantially
more resources than we have. Competitors with greater resources than ours may be
able to respond more quickly than we can to new opportunities, changing
technology, product standards or customer requirements.

WE MAY HAVE DIFFICULTY MANAGING OUR GROWTH.

     Any failure to properly manage our growth may have a material adverse
effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. The rapid
growth that we have experienced places significant challenges on our management,
administrative and operational resources. To properly manage this growth, we
must, among other things, implement and improve additional and existing
administrative, financial and operational systems, procedures and controls on a
timely basis. We will also need to expand our finance, administrative and
operations staff. We may not be able to complete the improvements to our
systems, procedures and controls necessary to support our future operations in a
timely manner. Management may not be able to hire, train, integrate, retain,
motivate and manage required personnel and may not be able to successfully
identify, manage and exploit existing and potential market opportunities. In
connection with our expansion, we plan to increase our operating expenses to
expand our sales and marketing operations, develop new distribution channels,
fund greater levels of research and development, broaden services and support
and improve operational and financial systems. Our failure to generate
additional revenue commensurate with an increase in operating expenses during
any fiscal period could have a material adverse effect on our financial results
for that period.

WE DEPEND ON THE INTEGRATION AND CONTINUED SERVICE OF OUR KEY PERSONNEL.

     We are a small company and depend greatly on the knowledge and experience
of our senior management team, many of whom have only recently joined us, and
other key personnel. If we fail to quickly integrate our team, or lose any of
these key personnel, our business, operating results and financial condition
could be materially adversely affected. We must hire additional employees to
meet our business plan and alleviate the negative effect that the loss of a
senior manager could have on us. Our success will depend in part on our ability
to attract and retain additional personnel with the highly specialized expertise
necessary to engineer, design and support our products and services. Like other
software companies, we face intense competition for qualified personnel. We may
not be able to attract or retain such personnel.

                                        8
<PAGE>   10

WE HAVE RELIED AND EXPECT TO CONTINUE TO RELY ON SALES OF OUR CONTENT MANAGEMENT
SOFTWARE PRODUCTS FOR OUR REVENUES.

     We currently derive all of our revenues from product licenses and services
associated with our suite of content management software products. The market
for content management software products is new and rapidly evolving. We cannot
be certain that a viable market for our products will emerge, or if it does
emerge, that it will be sustainable. If we do not continue to increase revenues
related to our existing products or generate revenues from new products and
services, our business, operating results and financial condition may be
materially adversely affected. We will continue to depend on revenues related to
new and enhanced versions of our software products for the foreseeable future.
Our success will largely depend on our ability to increase sales from existing
products and generate sales from product enhancements and new products. We
cannot be certain that we will be successful in upgrading and marketing our
existing products or that we will be successful in developing and marketing new
products and services. The market for our products is highly competitive and
subject to rapid technological change. Technological advances could make our
products less attractive to customers and adversely affect our business. In
addition, complex software product development involves certain inherent risks,
including risks that errors may be found in a product enhancement or new product
after its release, even after extensive testing, and the risk that discovered
errors may not be corrected in a timely manner.

OUR SUCCESS DEPENDS ON OUR ABILITY TO PROTECT OUR PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY.

     If we are unable to protect our intellectual property, or incur significant
expense in doing so, our business, operating results and financial condition may
be materially adversely affected. Any steps we take to protect our intellectual
property may be inadequate, time consuming and expensive. We currently have no
patents or pending patent applications. Without significant patent or copyright
protection, we may be vulnerable to competitors who develop functionally
equivalent products. We may also be subject to claims that our current products
infringe on the intellectual property rights of others. Any such claim may have
a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial
condition.

     We anticipate that software product developers will be increasingly subject
to infringement claims due to growth in the number of products and competitors
in our industry, and the overlap in functionality of products in different
industries. Any infringement claim, regardless of its merit, could be
time-consuming, expensive to defend, or require us to enter into royalty or
licensing agreements. Such royalty or licensing agreements may not be available
on commercially favorable terms, or at all. We are not currently involved in any
intellectual property litigation. However, we have been notified by a third
party that it believes our Xpedio mark infringes its proprietary rights. Due to
the early stage of this dispute, we are unable to assess the likelihood that an
infringement claim would be successful and we have not determined how we will
respond to this notification. If we are unable to defend our Xpedio mark, we may
be required to cease the use of this mark and to develop and adopt a new mark.

     We rely on trade secret protection, confidentiality procedures and
contractual provisions to protect our proprietary information. Despite our
attempts to protect our confidential and proprietary information, others may
gain access to this information. Alternatively, other companies may
independently develop substantially equivalent information. We have been issued
trademarks for the Intranet Solutions and Intra.doc! marks, and have applied for
trademark registration for the Xpedio mark.

     We are not certain whether a trademark will be issued on the Xpedio mark.
In the absence of trademark protection, we may be unable to take advantage of
the brand name recognition we are attempting to build. In addition, even if a
trademark is issued on the Xpedio mark, we cannot be sure that the trademark
will prove valuable to us.

                                        9
<PAGE>   11

OUR PRODUCTS MAY NOT BE COMPATIBLE WITH COMMERCIAL WEB BROWSERS AND OPERATING
SYSTEMS.

     Our products utilize interfaces that are compatible with commercial Web
browsers. In addition, Xpedio is a server-based system written in Java that
functions in both Windows NT and UNIX environments. We must continually modify
our products to conform to commercial Web browsers and operating systems. If our
products were to become incompatible with commercial Web browsers and operating
systems, our business would be harmed. In addition, uncertainty related to the
timing and nature of product introductions or modifications by vendors of Web
browsers and operating systems may have a material adverse effect on our
business, operating results and financial condition.

WE COULD BE SUBJECT TO PRODUCT LIABILITY CLAIMS IF OUR PRODUCTS FAIL TO PERFORM
TO SPECIFICATIONS.

     If software errors or design defects in our products cause damage to
customers' data and our agreements do not protect us from related product
liability claims, our business, operating results and financial condition may be
materially adversely affected. In addition, we could be subject to product
liability claims if our security features fail to prevent unauthorized third
parties from entering our customers' intranet, extranet or Internet Web sites.
Our software products are complex and sophisticated and may contain design
defects or software errors that are difficult to detect and correct. Errors,
bugs or viruses spread by third parties may result in the loss of market
acceptance or the loss of customer data. Our agreements with customers that
attempt to limit our exposure to product liability claims may not be enforceable
in certain jurisdictions where we operate.

FUTURE REGULATIONS COULD BE ADOPTED THAT RESTRICT OUR BUSINESS.

     Federal, state or foreign agencies may adopt new legislation or regulations
governing the use and quality of Web content. We cannot predict if or how any
future laws or regulations would impact our business and operations. Even though
these laws and regulations may not apply to our business directly, they could
indirectly harm us to the extent that they impact our customers and potential
customers.

SIGNIFICANT FLUCTUATION IN THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK COULD RESULT IN
SECURITIES LITIGATION AGAINST US.

     In the past, securities class action litigation has been brought against
publicly held companies following periods of volatility in the price of their
securities. If we were subject to such litigation due to volatility in our stock
price, we may incur substantial costs. Such litigation could divert the
attention of our senior management away from our business, which could have a
material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial
condition.

     The market price of our common stock has fluctuated significantly in the
past and may do so in the future. The market price of our common stock may be
affected by each of the following factors, many of which are outside of our
control:

     - variations in quarterly operating results;

     - changes in estimates by securities analysts;

     - changes in market valuations of companies in our industry;

     - announcements by us of significant events, such as major sales,
       acquisitions of businesses or losses of major customers;

     - additions or departures of key personnel; and

     - sales of our equity securities.

                                       10
<PAGE>   12

OUR PERFORMANCE WILL DEPEND ON THE CONTINUING GROWTH AND ACCEPTANCE OF THE WEB.

     Our products are designed to be used with intranets, extranets and the
Internet. If the use of these methods of electronic communication does not grow,
our business, operating results and financial condition may be materially
adversely affected. Continued growth in the use of the Web will require ongoing
and widespread interest in its capabilities for communication and commerce. Its
growth will also require maintenance and expansion of the infrastructure
supporting its use and the development of performance improvements, such as high
speed modems. The Web infrastructure may not be able to support the demands
placed on it by continued growth. The ongoing development of corporate intranets
depends on continuation of the trend toward network-based computing and on the
willingness of businesses to reengineer the processes used to create, store,
manage and distribute their data. All of these factors are outside of our
control.

OUR EXISTING SHAREHOLDERS WILL HAVE SIGNIFICANT INFLUENCE OVER INTRANET
SOLUTIONS.

     Robert F. Olson, our President and Chief Executive Officer, will hold
approximately 13.8% of our outstanding common stock after the offering and the
sale of all 400,000 shares being offered by Mr. Olson. Accordingly, Mr. Olson
will be able to exercise significant control over the affairs of IntraNet
Solutions. Additionally, our directors and executive officers will beneficially
own approximately 17.0% of our common stock upon the completion of this
offering. These persons will have significant influence over IntraNet Solutions'
affairs, including approval of the acquisition or disposition of assets, future
issuances of common stock or other securities and the authorization of dividends
on our common stock. Our directors and executive officers could use their stock
ownership to delay, defer or prevent a change in control of IntraNet Solutions,
depriving shareholders of the opportunity to sell their stock at a price in
excess of the prevailing market price.

SUBSTANTIAL SALES OF OUR COMMON STOCK COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR STOCK PRICE.

     The sale, or availability for sale, of substantial quantities of our common
stock may have the effect of depressing its market price by potentially
introducing a large number of sellers into an already volatile market. In
addition, the sale of these shares could impair our ability to raise capital
through the sale of additional equity securities. Following the completion of
this offering approximately 19,844,698 shares of our common stock will be
outstanding, approximately 14,610,000 of which will be freely tradable. Another
approximately 3,431,000 shares will be eligible for sale to the public under
Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933. We have outstanding warrants to purchase
up to an aggregate of 765,371 shares of common stock, of which approximately
660,000 shares may be resold pursuant to currently effective registration
statements. After the exercise of stock options for 140,000 shares, which shares
are included in this offering, there will be 2,417,509 shares subject to
outstanding options and approximately 885,000 additional shares available for
new grants under our stock option plans.

     Our directors, officers and selling shareholders have executed lock-up
agreements that limit their ability to sell our common stock. These individuals
have agreed not to sell or otherwise dispose of an aggregate of approximately
4,300,000 shares of our common stock for a period of at least 90 days after the
date of this prospectus without the written approval of the underwriters. When
the lock-up agreements expire, these shares will become eligible for sale. Sales
of shares of our common stock by our directors and officers will be subject to
the volume, manner of sale and notice requirements of Rule 144.

MANAGEMENT HAS BROAD DISCRETION OVER THE USE OF PROCEEDS FROM THIS OFFERING.

     We have not designated any of the net proceeds anticipated from this
offering for specific uses. Consequently, management will have considerable
discretion over the use of all net proceeds from the

                                       11
<PAGE>   13

offering. You will not have the ability to evaluate the economic, financial or
other information on which we base our decisions on how to use the proceeds.

INVESTORS WILL EXPERIENCE IMMEDIATE AND SUBSTANTIAL DILUTION IN THE BOOK VALUE
OF THEIR INVESTMENT.

     The price of shares included in this offering is expected to be
substantially higher than the book value per share of the shares of common stock
outstanding after completion of the offering. If you purchase common stock in
this offering, you will experience immediate dilution of approximately $30.51
per share, measured by the excess of an assumed public offering price of $36.25
per share over the pro forma book value following the offering.

WE CAN ISSUE SHARES OF PREFERRED STOCK WITHOUT SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL, WHICH COULD
ADVERSELY AFFECT THE RIGHTS OF COMMON SHAREHOLDERS.

     Our Articles of Incorporation permit us to establish the rights,
privileges, preferences and restrictions, including voting rights, of unissued
shares of our capital stock and to issue such shares without approval from our
shareholders. The rights of holders of our common stock may suffer as a result
of the rights granted to holders of preferred stock that may be issued in the
future. In addition, we could issue preferred stock to prevent a change in
control of IntraNet Solutions, depriving shareholders of an opportunity to sell
their stock at a price in excess of the prevailing market price.

CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF MINNESOTA LAW MAY MAKE A TAKEOVER OF INTRANET SOLUTIONS
DIFFICULT, DEPRIVING SHAREHOLDERS OF OPPORTUNITIES TO SELL SHARES AT
ABOVE-MARKET PRICES.

     Certain provisions of Minnesota law may have the effect of discouraging
attempts to acquire IntraNet Solutions without the approval of our Board of
Directors. Consequently, our shareholders may lose opportunities to sell their
stock for a price in excess of the prevailing market price.

                           FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

     The information contained in this prospectus contains forward-looking
statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that involve a number of
risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use
of forward-looking terminology such as "believes," "expects," "may," "will,"
"could," "should," "seeks," "pro forma," "as adjusted" or "anticipates," or
other variations thereof, including their use in the negative, or by discussions
of strategies, plans or intentions. Such statements include but are not limited
to statements under the caption "Summary," "Risk Factors," "Use of Proceeds,"
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations," "Business" and elsewhere in this prospectus. A number of factors
could cause our results to differ materially from those anticipated by such
forward-looking statements, including those discussed under "Risk Factors."

     In addition, such forward-looking statements necessarily depend on
assumptions and estimates that may prove to be incorrect. Although we believe
the assumptions and estimates reflected in such forward-looking statements are
reasonable, we cannot guarantee that our plans, intentions or expectations will
be achieved. The information contained in this prospectus, including the section
discussing risk factors, identifies important factors that could cause such
differences.

     The cautionary statements made in this prospectus are intended to be
applicable to all related forward-looking statements wherever they appear in
this prospectus. We assume no obligation to update such forward-looking
statements or to update the reasons that actual results could differ materially
from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements.

                                USE OF PROCEEDS

     Based on an assumed public offering price of $36.25 per share, we estimate
that the net proceeds to IntraNet Solutions from the sale of the 2,255,000
shares of common stock offered by us in this offering will be approximately
$77.2 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and
estimated offering expenses, all of which are payable by IntraNet Solutions. If
the underwriters' over-allotment option is exercised in full, we estimate that
our net proceeds from this offering will be $97.9 million. We anticipate that
the net proceeds will be used for working capital and general corporate
purposes. We may also use a portion of the net proceeds to acquire or invest in
businesses, technologies, product lines or service offerings that are
complementary to our business. We have no present plans, understandings or
commitments in this regard. As a result, we will have significant discretion as
to the use of the net proceeds. Pending such use, we intend to invest the net
proceeds in short-term, interest-bearing, investment-grade securities.

     We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of common stock by the

                                    DILUTION

     The pro forma net tangible book value of our common stock as of December
31, 1999 was $36.7 million, or $2.09 per share. Pro forma net tangible book
value per share represents the amount of our total tangible assets less total
liabilities, divided by the number of shares of common stock outstanding after
giving effect to the issuance to selling shareholders of 140,000 shares included
in this offering upon the exercise of stock options at exercise prices ranging
from $0.20 to $6.56 per share. After giving effect to our issuance and sale of
2,255,000 shares of common stock in this offering at an assumed offering price
of $36.25 per share and after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and
commissions and offering expenses, our pro forma net tangible book value as of
December 31, 1999 would have been $114.0 million, or $5.74 per share. This
represents an immediate increase in pro forma net tangible book value of $3.65
per share to existing shareholders and an immediate dilution of $30.51 per share
to new investors purchasing shares of common stock in the offering. The
following table illustrates this dilution:

</TABLE>

     The table above assumes no exercise of any stock options or warrants
outstanding as of December 31, 1999, except for options to purchase 140,000
shares included in this offering. As of December 31, 1999, there were options
outstanding to purchase 2,417,509 shares of our common stock at a weighted
average exercise price of $5.28 per share (excluding options held by selling
shareholders to purchase 140,000 shares) and warrants outstanding to purchase
765,371 of our common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $3.74. To
the extent that any of these options or warrants are exercised, there will be
further dilution to new investors. See "Capitalization."

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

     The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
"Selected Consolidated Financial Data" and our Consolidated Financial Statements
and related Notes included elsewhere in this prospectus. The discussion in this
prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties, such as statements of our plans, objectives, expectations and
intentions. The cautionary statements made in this prospectus should be read as
being applicable to all related forward-looking statements wherever they appear
in this prospectus. Our actual results could differ materially from those
discussed here. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences
include those discussed in "Risk Factors," as well as those discussed elsewhere
in this prospectus.

OVERVIEW

     IntraNet Solutions is a leading provider of Web content management
solutions for intranets, extranets and the Internet. The company responsible for
developing our current business was founded in 1990. In July 1996, it merged
with and into a publicly traded corporation, which was organized under Minnesota
law in November 1989. The name of the entity surviving this merger was changed
to IntraNet Solutions, Inc. Following the merger, our business included content
management software, on-demand publishing and hardware integration services.

     Our experience in assisting organizations in managing their diverse
business information, such as CAD files, engineering schematics, design
specifications, audio and video clips, graphics and traditional documents, led
us to identify the need for a comprehensive and easily deployed solution for Web
content management. In fiscal 1997, we launched our first Web-based software
product. We incorporated Java server architecture into this product in January
1998 and released an enhanced enterprise-scaleable version in September 1998. In
order to focus our resources exclusively on developing and marketing Web content
management solutions, we have disposed of our other businesses. In mid-1998, we
completed the final sale of substantially all of our on-demand publishing
assets, and we sold our hardware integration operations in late 1998. Since
October 1998, we have focused exclusively on developing and marketing Web
content management solutions. In September 1999, we acquired InfoAccess, Inc. in
a transaction accounted for as a pooling-of-interests. Following the
acquisition, we released the Xpedio Content Management Suite. The Xpedio Content
Management Suite combines proven features of our Web-based content management
solution with technology from InfoAccess that automatically converts content
from a source object to HTML or XML to publish a Web site.

     Due to the pooling-of-interests transaction with InfoAccess, our "Summary
Consolidated Financial Data," "Selected Consolidated Financial Data," "Quarterly
Results" and Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes, included
elsewhere in this prospectus, have been restated to include the operations of
InfoAccess in all periods presented. In addition, certain reclassifications have
been made to the categories of revenues and cost of revenues presented in our
1997 and 1998 financial statements to conform with the presentation used in the
1999 financial statements. These reclassifications had no effect on losses from
continuing operations or net losses as previously reported.

     We currently derive all of our revenues from licenses of our software
products and related services. Revenues are recognized on product licenses when
a purchase order has been received, the product has been shipped and no
significant obligations remain related to implementation. Revenues for services
consist of fees from consulting and maintenance. Consulting services include
needs assessment, software integration, security analysis, application
development and training. We bill consulting fees either on a time and materials
basis or on a fixed price schedule. Our clients typically purchase annual
maintenance agreements, and we price maintenance agreements based on

                                       18
<PAGE>   20

a percentage of the product license fee. Clients purchasing maintenance
agreements receive product upgrades, Web-based technical support and telephone
hot-line support. We recognize revenues from maintenance agreements ratably over
the term of the agreement, typically one year.

     Cost of revenues consists of technology royalties, costs to manufacture,
package and distribute our products and related documentation, as well as
personnel and other expenses related to providing services. Sales and marketing
expenses consist primarily of employee salaries, commissions, and costs
associated with marketing programs such as advertising, public relations and
trade shows. Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and
related costs associated with the development of new products, the enhancement
of existing products and the performance of quality assurance and documentation
activities. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries
and other personnel-related costs for executive, financial, human resources,
information services and other administrative personnel, as well as legal,
accounting and insurance costs. Losses from discontinued operations consist
primarily of losses on the operations of our former on-demand publishing
distribution group and losses on the write-down and sale of its assets.

     Since our inception, we have incurred substantial costs to develop our
technology and products, to recruit and train personnel for our sales and
marketing, research and development and services departments, and to establish
an administrative organization. As a result, we had an accumulated deficit of
$13.6 million at December 31, 1999. We anticipate that our operating expenses
will increase substantially in future quarters as we increase sales and
marketing operations, develop new distribution channels, fund greater levels of
research and development, broaden services and improve operational and financial
systems. In addition, our limited operating history makes it difficult for us to
predict future operating results. We cannot be certain that we will sustain
revenue growth or profitability.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -- THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999 COMPARED TO THREE
MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998

     REVENUES

     Total revenues increased by $2.5 million, or 78%, to $5.8 million for the
three months ended December 31, 1999 from $3.3 million for the three months
ended December 31, 1998. The increase in revenues was attributable to the
expansion of our customer base, increased sales to existing customers and the
launch of our Xpedio Content Management Suite, which typically has a higher
sales price than our other products.

     Product Licenses. Revenues for product licenses increased by $2.0 million,
or 71%, to $4.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 1999 from $2.7
million for the three months ended December 31, 1998. The increase in revenues
for product licenses was attributable to the expansion of our customer base,
increased sales to existing customers and the launch of our Xpedio Content
Management Suite.

     Services. Revenues for services increased by $608,000, or 110%, to $1.2
million for the three months ended December 31, 1999 from $551,000 for the three
months ended December 31, 1998. The increase in revenues for services was
primarily attributable to revenues from maintenance contracts on a larger
installed base of products.

     COST OF REVENUES AND GROSS PROFIT

     Total cost of revenues increased by $480,000, or 80%, to $1.1 million for
the three months ended December 31, 1999 from $598,000 for the three months
ended December 31, 1998. Total cost of revenues as a percentage of total
revenues was 19% for the three months ended December 31, 1999 compared to 18%
for the three months ended December 31, 1998. Gross profit increased by

                                       19
<PAGE>   21

$2.1 million, or 77%, to $4.8 million for the three months ended December 31,
1999 from $2.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 1998. Total gross
profit as a percentage of total revenues was 81% for the three months ended
December 31, 1999 compared to 82% for the three months ended December 31, 1998.
The increase in gross profit dollars was primarily due to increased revenues for
product licenses and services.

     Product Licenses. Cost of revenues for product licenses increased by
$248,000, or 95%, to $510,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1999 from
$262,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1998. Gross profit as a
percentage of revenues for product licenses was 89% for the three months ended
December 31, 1999 compared to 90% for the three months ended December 31, 1998.

     Services. Cost of revenues for services increased by $232,000, or 69%, to
$568,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1999 from $336,000 for the
three months ended December 31, 1998. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues
for services was 51% for the three months ended December 31, 1999 compared to
39% for the three months ended December 31, 1998. The increase in the gross
profit as a percentage of revenues for services was primarily due to increased
utilization of consulting services resources and a shift in the mix of revenues
for services to higher margin maintenance revenues from lower margin consulting
services.

     OPERATING EXPENSES

     Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses increased by $1.2
million, or 80%, to $2.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 1999
from $1.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 1998. Sales and
marketing expenses as a percentage of total revenues were 47% for the three
months ended December 31, 1999 compared to 46% for the three months ended
December 31, 1998. The increase in sales and marketing expense was primarily due
to increased staffing and marketing expenses for advertising, public relations
and trade shows.

     General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased
by $148,000, or 16%, to $1.1 million for the three months ended December 31,
1999 from $904,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1998. General and
administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues were 18% for the three
months ended December 31, 1999 compared to 28% for the three months ended
December 31, 1998. General and administrative expenses decreased as a percentage
of revenues due primarily to an increase in total revenues partially offset by
an increase in personnel expenses.

     Research and Development. Research and development expenses increased by
$176,000, or 32%, to $731,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1999 from
$555,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1998. Research and development
expenses as a percentage of total revenues were 13% for the three months ended
December 31, 1999 compared to 17% for the three months ended December 31, 1998.
The decrease in research and development expenses as a percentage of total
revenues was primarily due to an increase in total revenues partially offset by
increases in staffing and related costs to support new products and product
enhancements.

     OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)

     Interest income was $380,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1999
compared to interest expense of $64,000 for the three months ended December 31,
1998. Interest income for the three months ended December 31, 1999 was primarily
related to short-term investments purchased with the proceeds of our public
stock offering completed in June 1999. Interest expense for the three months
ended December 31, 1998 related primarily to our revolving line-of-credit.

sales price than our other products, partially offset by the sale of our
hardware integration business.

     Product Licenses. Revenues for product licenses increased by $5.5 million,
or 90%, to $11.7 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1999 from $6.2

September 30, 1998.

     COST OF REVENUES AND GROSS PROFIT

     Total cost of revenues decreased by $3.2 million, or 53%, to $2.8 million
for the nine months ended December 31, 1999 from $5.9 million for the nine

hardware integration and support in the nine months ended December 31, 1999
compared to $4.6 million in cost of revenues for hardware integration and
support for the nine months ended December 31, 1998. We sold our hardware
integration business during the quarter ended September 30, 1998.

     OPERATING EXPENSES

     Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses increased by $2.5
million, or 61%, to $6.7 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1999
from $4.2 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1998. Sales and
marketing expenses as a percentage of total revenues were 45% for the nine
months ended December 31, 1999 compared to 32% for the nine months ended
December 31, 1998. Sales and marketing expenses increased as a percentage of
total revenues primarily due to decreased revenues for hardware integration and
support, combined with increased staffing and marketing expenses for
advertising, public relations and trade shows. The increase was partially offset
by decreased sales and marketing expenses related to hardware integration and
support programs.

     General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased
by $386,000, or 16%, to $2.8 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1999
from $2.4 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1998. General and
administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues were 19% for both the
nine months ended December 31, 1999 and the nine months ended December 31, 1998.
General and administrative increased primarily due to increased personnel
expenses.

     Research and Development. Research and development expenses increased by
$270,000, or 17%, to $1.9 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1999
from $1.6 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1998. Research and
development expenses as a percentage of total revenues were 13% for the nine
months ended December 31, 1999 compared to 12% for the nine months ended

primarily due to increased staffing and costs related to product enhancements,
partially offset by decreased expenses related to our hardware integration
operations.

     Acquisition Costs. Acquisition costs of $2.0 million in the nine months
ended December 31, 1999 consisted primarily of financial advisory, legal,
accounting and other costs related to our acquisition of InfoAccess, Inc. in
September 1999.

     OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)

     Interest income was $774,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 1999
compared to interest expense of $143,000 for the nine months ended December 31,
1998. Interest income for the nine months ended December 31, 1999 was primarily
related to short-term investments purchased with the proceeds of our public
stock offering completed in June 1999. Interest expense for the nine months
ended December 31, 1998 related primarily to our revolving line-of-credit.

     DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

     Losses on discontinued operations of $521,000 for the nine months ended
December 31, 1998 consisted of losses on the operation and disposition of our
on-demand publishing operations, the final disposition of which occurred in June

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -- FISCAL YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 COMPARED TO FISCAL
YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 1998

     REVENUES

     Total revenues decreased by $5.2 million, or 23%, to $17.0 million for the
year ended March 31, 1999 from $22.2 million for the year ended March 31, 1998.
This decrease related primarily to the sale of our hardware integration
business, partially offset by increased revenues for product licenses of our Web
content management software.

     Product Licenses. Revenues for product licenses, which related entirely to
our Web content management software, increased by $4.8 million, or 107%, to $9.3
million for the year ended March 31, 1999 from $4.5 million for the year ended
March 31, 1998. The growth in revenues for product licenses was attributable to
the expansion of our customer base and increased sales to existing customers.

     Services. Revenues for services, which related entirely to services
associated with our Web content management software, increased by $866,000, or
70%, to $2.1 million for the year ended March 31, 1999 from $1.2 million for the
year ended March 31, 1998. The increase in revenues for services was primarily
attributable to a larger installed base of products.

     Hardware Integration and Support. Revenues for hardware integration and
support decreased by $10.8 million, or 66%, to $5.6 million for the year ended
March 31, 1999 from $16.5 million for the year ended March 31, 1998. The
decrease in revenues for hardware integration was due to the sale of the
hardware integration business during the quarter ended September 30, 1998.

     COST OF REVENUES AND GROSS PROFIT

     Total cost of revenues decreased by $7.5 million, or 53%, to $6.7 million
for the year ended March 31, 1999 from $14.2 million for the year ended March
31, 1998. Total cost of revenues as a percentage of total revenues was 39% in
1999 compared to 64% in 1998. Gross profit increased by $2.3 million, or 29%, to
$10.4 million for the year ended March 31, 1999 from $8.0 million for the year
ended March 31, 1998. Total gross profit as a percentage of total revenues was
61% in 1999 compared to 36% in 1998. The increase in gross profit was primarily
attributable to a shift in product mix from hardware integration and support to
product licenses and services related to our Web content management software.

     Product Licenses. Cost of revenues for product licenses, which related
entirely to our Web content management software, increased by $329,000, or 68%,
to $811,000 for the year ended March 31, 1999 from $482,000 for the year ended
March 31, 1998. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues for product licenses
was 91% for the year ended March 31, 1999 compared to 89% for the year ended
March 31, 1998.

     Services. Cost of revenues for services, which related entirely to services
associated with our Web content management software, increased by $432,000, or
54%, to $1.2 million for the year ended March 31, 1999 from $797,000 for the
year ended March 31, 1998. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues for services
was 41% for the year ended March 31, 1999 compared to 35% for the year ended
March 31, 1998. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of revenues for
services was primarily due to increased utilization of consulting services
resources and a shift in the mix of revenues for services to higher margin
maintenance revenues from lower margin consulting services.

     Hardware Integration and Support. Cost of revenues for hardware integration
and support decreased by $8.3 million, or 64%, to $4.6 million for the year
ended March 31, 1999 from $12.9 million for the year ended March 31, 1998. The
decrease in cost of revenues for hardware integration and support was due to the
sale of the hardware integration and support business during

                                       23
<PAGE>   25

the quarter ended September 30, 1998. Gross profit as a percentage of hardware
integration revenues was 18% for the year ended March 31, 1999 compared to 22%
for the year ended March 31, 1998. The reduction in gross profit as a percentage
of hardware integration and support revenues was primarily attributable to
larger hardware integration projects with lower margins as well as to increased
competition.

     OPERATING EXPENSES

     Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses increased by $1.2
million, or 27%, to $5.7 million for the year ended March 31, 1999 from $4.5
million for the year ended March 31, 1998. Sales and marketing expenses as a
percentage of total revenues were 34% in 1999 compared to 20% in 1998. Sales and
marketing expenses increased as a percentage of total revenues primarily due to
decreased revenues for hardware integration and support, combined with increased
staffing and marketing expenses for advertising, public relations and trade
shows supporting our Web content management suite of products. The increase was
partially offset by decreased sales and marketing expenses related to hardware
integration and support programs.

     General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased
by $477,000, or 15%, to $3.6 million for the year ended March 31, 1999 from $3.1
million for the year ended March 31, 1998. General and administrative expenses
as a percentage of total revenues were 21% in 1999 compared to 14% in 1998.
General and administrative expenses increased primarily due to increased
personnel expenses, including hiring expenses, and increased expenses for
professional services.

     Research and Development. Research and development expense remained
constant at $2.2 million for the year ended March 31, 1999 and the year ended
March 31, 1998. Research and development expenses as a percentage of total
revenues were 13% in 1999 compared to 10% in 1998.

     OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)

     Other income was $305,000 for the year ended March 31, 1999 compared to
other expense of $334,000 for the year ended March 31, 1998. Other income in
1999 included a gain of $517,000 on the sale of the assets of our hardware
integration business unit, partially offset by net interest expense. Other
expense in 1998 consisted of interest expense on our revolving line of credit.

     DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

     Loss on discontinued operations decreased by $2.0 million, or 80%, to
$521,000 for the year ended March 31, 1999 from $2.6 million for the year ended
March 31, 1998. The decreased losses on discontinued operations was primarily
due to 1999 including only a partial year of losses on discontinued operations,
while 1998 included a full year of losses. The loss in 1998 also includes an
adjustment of $750,000 to fully amortize goodwill associated with the
acquisition of a discontinued facility and the write-down of certain other
assets to their estimated net realizable value.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -- FISCAL YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 COMPARED TO FISCAL

licenses was attributable to the expansion of our customer base and increased
sales to existing customers.

million for the year ended March 31, 1998 from $1.5 million for the year ended
March 31, 1997. The decrease in revenues for services was primarily due to a
reduction in original equipment manufacturer, or OEM, business.

     Hardware Integration and Support. Revenues for hardware integration and
support increased by $1.2 million, or 8%, to $16.5 million for the year ended
March 31, 1998 from $15.3 million for the year ended March 31, 1997. The
increase in hardware integration revenues was primarily due to the expansion of

     COST OF REVENUES AND GROSS PROFIT

     Total cost of revenues increased by $1.3 million, or 10%, to $14.2 million
for the year ended March 31, 1998 from $12.9 million for the year ended March
31, 1997. Total cost of revenues as a percentage of total revenues was 64% in

million for the year ended March 31, 1998 from $7.8 million for the year ended
March 31, 1997. Total gross profit as a percentage of total revenues was 36% in
1998 compared to 38% in 1997. The increase in gross profit was primarily
attributable to increased revenues from product licenses.

     Product Licenses. Cost of revenues for product licenses, which related
entirely to our Web content management software, was $482,000 for the year ended
March 31, 1998 compared to $489,000 for the year ended March 31, 1997. Gross
profit as a percentage of product license revenues was 89% for the year ended
March 31, 1998, compared to 88% for the year ended March 31, 1997. The increase
in gross profit as a percentage of revenues was primarily attributable to a
change in product mix.

     Services. Cost of revenues for services increased by $274,000, or 52%, to
$797,000 for the year ended March 31, 1998 from $523,000 for the year ended

year ended March 31, 1997. Sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of total
revenues remained constant at 20% in 1998 and 1997. The increase in the total
amount of sales and marketing expenses was primarily due to increases in
staffing and marketing expenses for advertising, public relations and trade
shows supporting our Intra.doc! suite of products partially offset by reduced
sales and marketing expense at our InfoAccess subsidiary.

     General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased
$564,000, or 22%, to $3.1 million for the year ended March 31, 1998 from $2.5

     Revenues. Revenues for product licenses and services, which are related
entirely to our Web-based content management software, have increased in each of
the quarters since its release, except for the quarter ended June 30, 1998. We
implemented a reorganization of our sales department during the quarter ended
June 30, 1998, which temporarily diverted the focus of the sales department,
leading to reduced sales in the quarter. A new version of our software was
launched during the quarter ended September 30, 1998, which included significant
improvements in the enterprise-scalability features of our software. This
launch, combined with the renewed efforts of our reorganized sales department,
generated a significant increase in revenues for product licenses in the quarter
ended September 30, 1998 through the quarter ended September 30, 1999. The
Xpedio Content Management Suite was launched in late September 1999. Sales of
Xpedio represented more than fifty-five percent of our revenues for product
licenses in the quarter ended December 31, 1999 and increased our average
transaction size for server licenses to approximately $100,000 during that
period.

     Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit. Cost of revenues for product licenses
and services, which are related entirely to our Web content management software,
have increased in each of the quarters since its release, except for the quarter
ended June 30, 1998. The decrease in cost of revenues from the quarter ended
March 31, 1998 corresponds with the decrease in revenues experienced during the
same period. Total gross profit as a percentage of total revenues has generally
increased, on a quarter to quarter basis, from March 31, 1998 through December
31, 1998 as our product mix shifted away from hardware integration and support
to software product licenses and services. Total gross profits as a percentage
of total revenues was sharply higher in the five most recent quarters relative
to the three previous quarters because revenues in the five most recent quarters
related exclusively to sales of our Web-based content management products and
services.

                                       27
<PAGE>   29

     As a result of our limited operating history, we cannot forecast operating
expenses based on historical results. Accordingly, we base our expenses in part
on projections of future revenues. Most of these expenses are fixed in the short
term, and we may not be able to quickly reduce spending if revenues are lower
than we have projected. Our ability to forecast accurately our quarterly
revenues is limited due to the sales cycle of our software products, which makes
it difficult to predict the quarter in which license sales will occur, and the
variability of client demand for professional services. We expect our business,
operating results and financial condition to be materially adversely affected if
revenues do not meet projections. We expect our revenues and operating results
may vary significantly from quarter to quarter. A number of factors are likely
to cause these variations, including:

     - demand for our products and services;

     - the timing of new product introductions and sales of our products and
       services;

     - unexpected delays in introducing new products and services;

     - increased expenses, whether related to sales and marketing, research and
       development or administration;

     - changes in the rapidly evolving market for Web content management
       solutions;

     - the mix of revenues from product licenses and services, as well as the
       mix of products licensed;

     - the mix of services provided and whether services are provided by our
       staff or third-party contractors;

     - the mix of domestic and international sales;

     - costs related to possible acquisitions of technology or businesses;

     - general economic conditions; and

     - public announcements by our competitors.

     Accordingly, we believe that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our
operating results are not necessarily meaningful. Investors should not rely on
the results of one quarter as an indication of future performance.

     We plan to increase our operating expenses to expand sales and marketing
operations, develop new distribution channels, fund greater levels of research
and development, broaden services and support and improve operational and
financial systems. If our revenues do not increase along with these expenses,
our business, operating results and financial condition in a given quarter may
be materially adversely affected.

NET OPERATING LOSS CARRYFORWARDS

     As of December 31, 1999, we had net operating loss carryforwards of
approximately $10.1 million. The net operating loss carryforwards will expire at
various dates beginning in 2011, if not utilized. The Tax Reform Act of 1986
imposes substantial restrictions on the utilization of net operating losses and
tax credits in the event of an "ownership change" of a corporation. Our ability
to utilize net operating loss carryforwards on an annual basis will be limited
as a result of "ownership changes" in connection with the sale of equity
securities. We have provided a full valuation allowance on the deferred tax
asset because of the uncertainty regarding its realization. Our accounting for
deferred taxes involves the evaluation of a number of factors concerning the
realizability of our deferred tax assets. In concluding that a full valuation
allowance was required, management considered such factors as our history of
operating losses, potential future losses and the nature of our

                                       28
<PAGE>   30

deferred tax assets. See Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements
included elsewhere in this prospectus.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     We have funded our operations and satisfied our capital expenditure
requirements primarily through revolving working capital and term loans from
banking institutions, private placements and public offerings of securities and
proceeds from the sales of assets related to prior lines of business. Net cash
used by operating activities was $2.2 million for the nine months ended December
31, 1999, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $931,000 for the
nine months ended December 31, 1998.

     To date, we have invested our capital expenditures primarily in property
and equipment, consisting largely of computer hardware and software. Capital
expenditures for the nine months ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 were $946,000
and $372,000, respectively. We have also entered into capital and operating
leases for facilities and equipment. We expect that our capital expenditures
will increase as our employee base grows. At December 31, 1999, we did not have
any material commitments for capital expenditures.

     As of December 31, 1999, we had $4.0 million in cash and equivalents, $25.2
million in short-term investments and $33.9 million in working capital. Net cash
provided by financing activities was $30.8 million for the nine months ended
December 31, 1999 and $1.9 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1998.
In June 1999, we completed a public offering of our common stock that raised
approximately $23.5 million in proceeds, net of offering costs of approximately
$2.3 million. In July 1999, the underwriters exercised their over-allotment
option, raising additional proceeds of approximately $3.6 million. In July 1999,
we closed our revolving line-of-credit facility with Diversified Business
Credit, Inc.

     We currently believe that the cash and cash equivalents on hand together
with the proceeds of this offering will be sufficient to meet our working
capital requirements for the foreseeable future. After that time, we may require
additional funds to support our working capital requirements or for other
purposes and may seek to raise such additional funds through public or private
equity financings or from other sources. We cannot be certain that additional
financing will be available on terms favorable to us, or on any terms, or that
any additional financing will not be dilutive.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     We adopted the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants'
Statement of Position, or SOP, 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, and SOP 98-4,
Deferral of the Effective Date of a Provision of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue
Recognition, as of April 1, 1998. SOP 97-2 and SOP 98-4 provide guidance for
recognizing revenue on software transactions and supersede SOP 91-1, Software
Revenue Recognition. The adoption of SOP 97-2 and SOP 98-4 did not have a
material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

     In December 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
issued SOP 98-9, Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition With
Respect to Certain Transactions. SOP 98-9 amends SOP 98-4 to extend the deferral
of the application of certain passages of SOP 97-2 provided by SOP 98-4 through
fiscal years beginning on or before March 15, 1999. All other provisions of SOP
98-9 are effective for transactions entered into during fiscal years beginning
after March 15, 1999. We adopted SOP 98-9 on April 1, 1999. The adoption of SOP
98-9 did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

     We adopted the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants' SOP
98-1, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for
Internal Use, on April 1, 1999. SOP 98-1

                                       29
<PAGE>   31

establishes the accounting for costs of software products developed or purchased
for internal use, including when such costs should be capitalized. The adoption
of SOP 98-1 did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial
statements.

     SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,
was issued in June 1998. We are not required to adopt SFAS No. 133 until April
1, 2001. We believe the adoption of SFAS No. 133 will not have a material effect
on our consolidated financial statements.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

     The "Year 2000 issue" refers generally to the problems that some software
may have in determining the correct century. For example, software with
date-sensitive functions that are not Year 2000 compliant may not be able to
distinguish whether "00" means 1900 or 2000, which may result in system failures
or the creation of erroneous data.

     We adopted a Year 2000 readiness program for the current versions of our
products prior to December 31, 1999. Our program included Year 2000 readiness
assessment and implementation of solutions to potential readiness issues.
Solutions included remediation, upgrading and replacement of certain product
versions, as well as validation testing, and contingency planning. We responded
to customer questions about prior versions of our products on a case-by-case
basis. We also tested the Year 2000 compliance of software obtained from third
parties that is incorporated into our products, and sought assurances from our
vendors that licensed software is Year 2000 compliant. Despite our testing,
testing by current and potential clients and assurances from developers of
products incorporated into our products, our products may contain undetected
errors or defects associated with Year 2000 date functions. Unknown errors or
defects in our products could result in delayed or lost revenues, diversion of
development resources, damage to our reputation or increased service and
warranty costs, any of which may have a material adverse affect on our business,
operating results and financial condition. Some commentators have predicted
significant litigation regarding Year 2000 compliance issues. Because of the
unprecedented nature of such litigation, it is uncertain whether or to what
extent this may affect us. To date, we have received no reports of material Year
2000 problems with our products.

     We also adopted a Year 2000 readiness program related to our internal
systems. Our internal systems include both our information technology, or IT,
and non-IT systems. Our readiness program included an assessment of our material
internal IT and non-IT systems, including both our own software products and
third-party software and hardware technology. To the extent that we were not
able to test the technology provided by third-party vendors, we sought
assurances from the vendors that their systems are Year 2000 compliant. Although
we are not currently aware of any material operational issues or costs
associated with our internal IT and non-IT systems and arrival of the Year 2000,
we may experience material unanticipated problems and costs caused by undetected
errors or defects in the technology used in our internal IT and non-IT systems.

     We do not currently have complete information concerning the effects of the
Year 2000 on all of our customers. Our current and potential clients may incur
significant expenses related to the Year 2000 issue. If our clients were not
Year 2000 compliant, they may be incurring material costs to remedy problems, or
they may face litigation costs. In either case, Year 2000 issues could reduce or
eliminate funds that current or potential customers would otherwise have had for
purchases of our products and services. Moreover, the information technology
personnel of our customers and potential customers may be required to focus
substantial efforts on addressing the Year 2000 issues of their own companies,
leaving them unable to evaluate or acquire new technology such as our products.
As a result, our business, operating results and financial condition may be
materially adversely affected. To date, we do not believe the Year 2000 issue
has had a material effect on demand for our products.

                                       30
<PAGE>   32

     We have funded our Year 2000 program from available cash and have not
separately accounted for these costs in the past. To date, we believe direct
costs for our Year 2000 program have not been material and have amounted to less
than $25,000. In addition, we have incurred expenses in amounts that are not
material associated with our salaried employees who have devoted some of their
time to our Year 2000 program. We may incur additional costs related to the Year
2000 program for unanticipated Year 2000 problems. We may experience material
problems and costs associated with Year 2000 compliance that may materially
adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

                                    BUSINESS

OVERVIEW

     IntraNet Solutions is a leading provider of Web content management
solutions for intranets, extranets and the Internet. Our Xpedio Content
Management Suite offers customers the ability to simplify and automate
management of Web content from all sources. We address an organization's complex
needs in publishing, updating and maintaining its Web sites by providing a
comprehensive solution that eliminates administrative bottlenecks and
automatically publishes content from native formats directly to the Web.

     Xpedio gives every content contributor in an organization the ability to
automatically Web-publish content to Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) and

to directly participate in the Web publishing process, Xpedio automates the
manual content conversion and publication tasks usually required of Webmasters.
This reduces errors, provides information more rapidly to users and allows
Webmasters to focus on site architecture and "look and feel" enhancements.

     Our comprehensive solution, applicable across a wide variety of industries
and Web applications, enables organizations to effectively utilize their content
on the Web. Since our first Web-based software products were introduced in
fiscal 1997, they have been adopted by over 800 customers for use on one or more
of their intranet, extranet and Internet Web sites. Customer uses of our
products have ranged from single workgroups to enterprise-wide deployments. Our
customers include organizations such as British Aerospace Airbus, Ltd., Cargill
Incorporated, Ericsson Telecom AB, GE Capital Corporation and Hewlett-Packard
Company.

INDUSTRY BACKGROUND

     EXPLOSIVE GROWTH OF THE INTERNET AND WEB CONTENT MANAGEMENT

     As the rapid growth of the Internet has fundamentally changed the way that
businesses communicate and transact, Web content has increased dramatically in
both volume and importance. Web content, including graphics, audio and video
clips, hyperlinked text and executable software, is the basis for every Web page
and most e-commerce applications. International Data Corporation, or IDC,
estimates that the number of Web pages will grow from 925 million in 1998 to
13.1 billion in 2003. In addition, the overall market for business-to-business
software tools, which includes content management software, is projected to
reach approximately $40.0 billion by 2002, according to The Delphi Group. IDC
estimates that the worldwide market for content and document management software
will expand from $1.0 billion in 1998 to $4.3 billion in 2003.

     RAPID ADOPTION OF CORPORATE INTRANETS AND EXTRANETS

     Corporations are employing intranets and extranets in order to capitalize
on their investments in Web-based infrastructure by sharing computing resources
and facilitating communication. Intranets typically refer to secure Web-based
networks dedicated to an organization's employees, while extranets extend such
networks beyond an organization's "internal walls" to include suppliers,
vendors, partners, customers and other businesses. Intranets and extranets
utilize common Internet protocols and Web browsers to share information and
efficiently communicate among large numbers of users in the secure environment
of a private network.

     Intranets provide multiple users the potential to securely and efficiently
access a wealth of data and up-to-date information in a wide variety of formats,
such as CAD files, engineering schematics,
                                       32
<PAGE>   34

design specifications, audio and video clips, graphics and traditional
documents. Intranet usage has evolved beyond document access and internal
distribution of information to enable organizations to streamline, automate and
increase the productivity of everyday business processes in a wide variety of
applications. For example, at the corporate management level, the effective use
of intranets enables managers to have rapid and secure access to relevant
business data, leading to expeditious and well-informed decisions. Engineering
and manufacturing departments are also using intranets for ISO certification,
technical manual publication and quality assurance processes. Similarly,
intranets allow human resource departments to make real-time changes to policies
and procedures, perform full-text searches of resumes and facilitate
reimbursement of employee expenses

     Extranets expand intranet applications to enable organizations to
selectively share business-critical data with suppliers, vendors, partners,
customers and other businesses. Extranet applications are increasingly being
used to increase sales, cut costs and improve customer service and support.
Organizations are making large investments in these applications to create
meaningful and attractively presented content that conveys important information
to selected recipients. Extranets also provide a platform for e-commerce,
allowing businesses to efficiently execute business transactions over the
Internet.

     NEED FOR COMPREHENSIVE WEB CONTENT MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS

     Many Web content management approaches target the collaborative model of
multiple Web developers manually converting content into Web formats and
publishing the content to large Internet Web sites. The limitations of these
content management systems are strongly evident in large organizations managing
multiple intranet or extranet Web sites. Many large corporations are attempting
to build and manage large numbers of business-to-business and intra-business Web
sites through manual conversion and publication of content with little process
oversight. The lack of resources makes HTML and XML conversion impractical. The
result is an inefficient environment with a lack of control over "look and
feel," outdated or untimely content and limited security. Large Internet Web
sites often have many different Web developers devoted to converting, publishing
and updating content in HTML or XML formats. However, this collaborative
approach is labor intensive and requires a great deal of oversight to ensure
consistency. In addition, even large organizations can not allocate the
necessary resources to avoid "Webmaster bottlenecks" caused by the continuous
manual coding and recoding required to make ongoing revisions to the vast amount
of information on their Web sites.

     A Web content management solution should be able to meet a wide range of
needs by rapidly converting content into a Web-based format and by providing
consistent "look and feel," sophisticated security, dynamic updating and native
file management. It is critical that the integrity of the content on an
organization's intranet, extranet or Internet Web sites is constantly maintained
so that users are always utilizing the most current information. In addition,
any solution must provide scalability that allows it to effectively manage the
business-critical content for organizations with thousands of content
contributors who are often at dispersed locations. Most existing solutions
require significant human resources to address this complex range of problems.
The resulting increase in administrative needs has created delays in accessing,
publishing and managing Web content. Organizations are seeking a fast, efficient
and comprehensive means of publishing and utilizing their content in a Web
environment.

     Management of Web content goes beyond HTML and XML pages to Active Server
Pages, or ASPs, PDF files, CAD files, engineering schematics, design
specifications, audio and video clips, graphics and traditional documents. Many
Web content management products do not provide an environment in which the
creation, approval, revision and release of all of these Web assets is fully
automated in one comprehensive content management system. The lack of a single
authority prevents implementation of sophisticated searching capabilities that
use meta data, or profiling information, to

                                       33
<PAGE>   35

locate content by simultaneously searching multiple Web sites. Sophisticated
security is also problematic without a comprehensive system controlling access
to all of an organization's Web content across intranets, extranets and the
Internet.

     Web content management solutions must provide a cost-effective and rapid
means of disseminating information to the Web for global organizations. An
effective Web content management solution must quickly publish accurate
information to the Web in the appropriate format and then dynamically update and
manage that information. The need for organizations to effectively leverage
intranets, extranets and the Internet presents a significant opportunity for a
cost-effective and comprehensive solution that enables organizations to easily
manage Web content.

OUR SOLUTION

     Our solution to an organization's need for a cost-effective and
comprehensive means for managing Web content on intranets, extranets and the
Internet is the Xpedio Content Management Suite. Xpedio is a comprehensive
solution that allows customers to simplify and automate the Web management of
content from all sources. Xpedio enables automatic HTML and XML Web publication
by multiple content creators from native formats to a Web site with a consistent
"look and feel." Our solution is rapidly deployed, easily maintained and may be
configured to fit an organization's specific requirements.

     Our solution has the following key benefits:

     Comprehensive Solution. Xpedio provides a comprehensive solution to Web
content management needs. Our Web-based architecture utilizes the customer's
existing Internet infrastructure and provides a full range of content management
services without requiring customization. Our template-based Web publishing
technology allows customers to automatically publish well-designed and
consistent Web pages from diverse source objects. This technology also allows
customers to apply different templates to source content in order to publish all
or appropriate portions of it simultaneously to separate intranet, extranet and
Internet pages, each personalized for a specific audience. Xpedio has
enterprise-level security that integrates with the customer's existing security
framework in most cases. Attachment of meta data and security information,
authentication and replication of data, as well as updating and version control,
all have the capacity to occur automatically without the need to reconfigure
documents, thereby dramatically reducing administration by eliminating a number
of content handlers.

     Scalable and Dynamic. Xpedio is a multi-tiered Web application consisting
of several independently scalable components: Xpedio Content Server, Xpedio
Content Publisher and the Web server that hosts the site. These components can
be scaled to meet the application requirements. As the volume of managed content
increases, it can be distributed across multiple Xpedio Content Servers. As the
number of Web sites being published increases, Xpedio Content Publishers can be
scaled to fit the organization's publication needs. Finally, as the amount and
frequency of information accessed by users increases, the Web servers can be
scaled appropriately. Performance is also enhanced by Xpedio's dynamic
management functions, including the ability to selectively retrieve, archive and
replicate content on an intranet, extranet or Internet site while performing
mass revisions of meta data. This allows users to quickly complete complex
reorganizations or consolidations of content. Xpedio provides dynamic
performance while minimizing costs and administration.

     Easy to Install and Use. Our Xpedio solution has many features that make it
easy to install and use. Xpedio is an out-of-the box solution that can be
quickly deployed, often in a matter of days. Xpedio is a server-based product
that requires no client software other than a Web browser. Many customers can
implement Xpedio without any third-party consulting assistance. In addition, our
component level architecture and template-based publishing allow customers to
rapidly create

                                       34
<PAGE>   36

a unique "look and feel" to Web sites. Once installed, Xpedio delivers Web
content access, publication and management to individual users through a
standard Web browser. This allows Xpedio to be utilized by all types of users in
organizations across diverse industries. Our automated solution enables users to
perform system administration, minimizing the involvement of information systems
departments.

     Integrates with Existing Environment. Based on open Web standards, Xpedio
utilizes the existing Web infrastructure of a corporation, from Web servers,
databases and file servers to browsers. Our solution automates the publishing of
standard desktop applications, as well as CAD files, graphics and audio and
video clips. Xpedio's template-based conversion and publishing ability also
allows for easy creation of a consistent "look and feel" for Web content, in
HTML or XML. This is all accomplished in a secure environment that interacts
with the organization's existing security framework.

STRATEGY

     Our objective is to enhance our position as a leading provider of
enterprise-scalable Web content management solutions. Key strategies to
achieving this objective include:

     Expand Product Leadership. We will continue to focus on providing our
market-leading solution for Web content management across intranets, extranets
and the Internet. We believe that business managers prefer our solution because
it automates the management of Web content and enables direct content
contribution from the desktop. We also believe these individuals prefer our
solution because it is easier to deploy, more cost-effective, contains
sophisticated security features and utilizes an open Web-based architecture.
Xpedio can be used by organizations of nearly any size due to its scalability
and can be adopted to a wide range of content management needs because of its
modular design. These range from a complete content management solution to
supplying other applications and Web sites with managed content or Web
publishing capability. We will continue to develop both new features for our
existing products and new products to enable our customers to further leverage
their intranets and extranets, as well as the Internet.

     Aggressively Penetrate Domestic and International Markets. We plan to
aggressively penetrate domestic and international markets for Web content
management solutions through the following avenues:

     - Expand Direct Sales Channels. We will continue to expand our direct sales
       force and sales support network to increase the rate of customer adoption
       of our products in both the United States and internationally. We intend
       to build world-class direct sales channels by adding high-quality direct
       sales personnel and devoting increased resources to telemarketing and
       pre-sales support services.

     - Expand Indirect Sales Channels. To increase the distribution and
       visibility of our products, we will continue to expand our indirect
       channels through strategic alliances with resellers, OEMs, key systems
       integrators and other channel partners in both domestic and international
       markets. We believe that a multi-channel sales effort will broaden
       customer awareness of our products and will allow us to more rapidly
       reach a greater number of customers.

     - Increase Penetration of Existing Customers. We intend to expand sales to
       existing customers by increasing the direct sales and marketing efforts
       targeted at these organizations. The cost-effectiveness of Xpedio allows
       us to gain entry into an organization at the workgroup level while the
       scalability of our solution and the ease with which it can be deployed
       allows existing customers to quickly and efficiently increase the breadth
       of their Xpedio use.

                                       35

     Continue to Build Brand Awareness. We will continue to promote our brands
as synonymous with comprehensive, cost-effective solutions for Web content
management. In order to accelerate the acceptance and penetration of our brand,
we will continue our active public relations program, participate in trade shows
and conferences and advertise our products through traditional and on-line media
channels and our Web site. These efforts will focus on leveraging our reputation
with existing customers and product leadership to drive brand awareness in the
Web content management market.

     Continue to Invest in Technology. We believe that the technical features of
Xpedio, including its open Web-based architecture, its enterprise-scalability
and the modularity of its feature sets, distinguish our products in the market.
We believe that our customers purchase our products based on their performance
characteristics and ability to rapidly solve problems encountered in the
management of Web sites. We feel that this reputation for performance will
facilitate the acceptance of enhancements and additional products into our
markets. In order to maintain our technological leadership, we will continue to
invest in research and development. We intend to focus our research and
development efforts on both enhancements to our existing solution and the
development of new products as the demands of our market evolve.

     Expand Services Offerings. We have established successful relationships
with our customers by serving as a consultant in the development of their
content management systems and applications. We are expanding our services
capabilities in order to extend our range of services and more completely
address areas such as business strategy, project management and application
development. We believe that providing high-quality services will strengthen our
customer relationships and enhance our product development efforts.

PRODUCTS

     XPEDIO CONTENT MANAGEMENT SUITE

     The Xpedio Content Management Suite provides a cost-effective, powerful and
comprehensive Web content management solution for developing and managing
intranet, extranet and Internet Web sites. Xpedio integrates Web publishing with
source content management to effectively control the entire content management
lifecycle. This system is based upon open Web standards and utilizes an
organization's existing Internet infrastructure. Xpedio is quickly deployed and
provides sophisticated security mechanisms that integrate with mechanisms
already in place within our customers' organizations.

     Xpedio automates the development, publishing and maintenance of intranet,
extranet and Internet Web sites. Xpedio automatically converts source content
into Web-based formats, which are then dynamically published to a secure Web
site on an intranet, extranet or the Internet. Xpedio's automatic process
converts content from its native format into either HTML, XML or PDF. When users
revise or add content to Xpedio, our system dynamically updates and manages the
Web site while maintaining the native file. Xpedio also provides sophisticated
security mechanisms that integrate with frameworks such as Windows NT domains
and Lightweight Directory Access Protocol, or LDAP, directories by mapping to
these security systems. This enables systems administrators to secure content
and control access while using an enterprise-level security standard. Security
can be assigned to workgroups, users, collections of content or individual Web
pages. Users maintain a single log on and password to access content no matter
how many levels of security are added within their workgroup or across their
enterprise.

     The architecture of Xpedio enables easy installation and simplifies
administrative functions. Through a Web browser, systems administrators can
create Xpedio users and groups, set security options, create folders and
configure publishing parameters. The automatic nature of many Xpedio publishing
and management functions eliminates manual steps in these processes and
minimizes the

                                       36
<PAGE>   38

number of content handlers. This increases efficiency and accuracy and makes
Xpedio a dynamic tool that provides the most current business-critical
information to an organization's Web sites.

     The Xpedio Content Management Suite is comprised of Xpedio Content Server,
Xpedio Content Publisher and Xpedio Web Asset Manager.

     Xpedio Content Server. Xpedio Content Server provides Xpedio's source
content repository and manages native files. Content Server enables content
revisions, release and expiration of specific content and the workflow
surrounding approval of source content. Individuals are able to contribute
content directly from desktop applications for Web publishing and management.
Content Server allows creators to convert content into either HTML or PDF
format. With its integrated search capability, individual users can search for
content within the Content Server using full-text or meta data searches, and
access either the native or Web version. Content Server Web-enables each piece
of content by providing a unique URL, or Web address, and file system location,
and provides a Web interface and an HTML interface to the content in the
repository.

     Xpedio Content Publisher. Xpedio Content Publisher allows organizations to
further leverage the capabilities of Xpedio Content Server with dynamic Web
publishing ability. With Content Publisher, users can design and automatically
publish an HTML or XML Web site utilizing any Web standards. Content Publisher's
template-based technology allows automatic Web publication of content from
numerous native formats to HTML or XML, with a consistent treatment of layout,
navigation, behavior, colors and scripts. In addition, application of multiple
templates to a single piece of content allows the same Web content to be
personalized for several audiences. Content Publisher automatically creates
reference information, such as tables of contents, lists of figures and key word
indexes. These reference tools, as well as all hyperlinks, are automatically
updated when source content undergoes revisions.

     Xpedio Web Asset Manager. Xpedio Web Asset Manager is a new product that
manages the Web assets of an organization and makes them available for use on
any Web site. Web assets include HTML pages, as well as images, PDF files,
scripts, video and audio clips, ASPs, and other forms of content. Lack of a
managed environment may result in difficulty in locating assets, improper use,
redundancy or use of expired or incorrect versions. Web Asset Manager is the
single authority that manages the contribution, approval, revision, archiving,
release and expiration of Web assets. All of these functions are performed while
making Web assets easy to locate for multiple users through meta-data driven
searches. Web Asset Manager can also version and archive entire Web sites which
can then be automatically recreated for future purposes.

     INTRA.DOC! MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

     Our Intra.doc! product line is a cost-effective suite of Web-based software
products for organizations requiring sophisticated content management without
the robust publishing capabilities of Xpedio. Intra.doc! is a modular solution
that can be configured for a project, workgroup or the entire enterprise. It
features the same scalability, ease of installation and use and flexible
architecture as Xpedio and additional Intra.doc! modules can easily be added as
an organization's needs evolve. These modules enhance such functions as
e-commerce sales of data and content, user profiling, archiving and replication
or conversion of paper-based legacy data into Web content. Intra.doc! provided
much of the underlying technology for the Xpedio Content Management Suite.

SERVICES

     Our services organization provides solution-focused services that enable
our customers to realize the potential of our products in an open network
computing environment. We act as a business partner to our customers by
providing a broad spectrum of services, including needs assessment, software
integration, security analysis, application development and training. These
services are

                                       37
<PAGE>   39

offered for fees, the amount of which depends on the nature and scope of the
project. We are currently focusing on expanding our consulting services to
increase our breadth of experience and geographic coverage.

TECHNOLOGY

     We believe our advanced technology provides our customers with a
comprehensive solution for managing Web content across intranets, extranets and
the Internet in less time, at lower cost and with better results than existing
alternatives.

     PRODUCT ARCHITECTURE

     We believe that we have developed a unique and comprehensive architecture
for meeting the technical demands of applications designed for Web content
management through intranets, extranets and the Internet. By emphasizing open
Web standards, our products provide an efficient architecture for organizations
to build and deploy Web-publishing applications quickly and cost-effectively. We
believe this architecture also provides a strong foundation on which we can
deliver future products.

     Web-based Solution. Our products are designed to seamlessly and efficiently
interface with Web browsers, eliminating the need to install additional client
software. Xpedio is a server-based system written in Java, enabling it to
function in both the Windows NT and UNIX environments. On the front end, our
products utilize interfaces that are compatible with the leading Web browsers.
Once the browser has been launched, users can automatically Web publish content,
search for content utilizing Verity's search engine or navigate to a Web page
and view authorized content via a standard browser, a plug-in or another viewing
application. In addition, each piece of content is automatically fully indexed
allowing for full-text searching through the Web browser. Xpedio also allows
contributors to dynamically update both the Web content and the native file
simultaneously. As Web architecture continues to evolve, our architecture
strategy is to continue to develop our products as Web content management
solutions that integrate seamlessly with an organization's existing intranet,
extranet and Internet infrastructure.

     Content Conversion for Web-publishing. Content may be published to the Web
through the Xpedio Content Publisher or directly from the Xpedio Content Server.
When content is published through the Xpedio Content Publisher, user-established
project definition files determine where the content is published and how it
will look. The content is slotted into the appropriate pre-approved template,
converted to HTML or XML from its native format and published to the Web. When
content is published directly from the Xpedio Content Server, content is stored
in its native language, meta data is attached and the content is automatically
converted to a Web-based version without the formatting features available
through Xpedio Content Publisher. Because there is no application server,
content can be delivered very quickly, which eliminates consumer frustration
with long wait times.

     Content Storage and Management. Xpedio stores data and content, including
text and graphics, in its native format in a repository and enables access and
management control features for this information. Utilizing a server-based
architecture, Xpedio can access and manage vast amounts of content across a
large number of intranet, extranet and Internet users in a geographically
dispersed environment. Depending upon the needs of the organization, this
storage can take place on a single server or across a large number of servers,
affording efficient scalability. As a content manager, Xpedio enables standard
library services such as check-in, check-out, version control and content
history. This allows users to rapidly and securely access content while
providing management functions.

     Xpedio is a multi-tiered, server-based system that is written in Java. The
server layer contains all system processing logic and handles functions such as
content conversion and connection to the

                                       38
<PAGE>   40

relational database. This relational database is used to store all content
profile information in the content repository. Published content is stored
directly on the Web server and all file transfers are via hypertext transfer
protocol, or HTTP. File access does not have to be processed with a common
gateway interface, or CGI, script, thereby reducing retrieval time. A security
plug-in is used on the server to reduce security complexity and speed
processing. The ability to use standard HTTP provides a number of significant
advantages such as the transfer of content through firewalls while using
standard compression, encryption and certificate servers. HTTP allows
organizations to keep their firewall configurations simple and secure.

     The following diagram provides an overview of Xpedio's system architecture.

                         GRAPHIC DEPICTING ARCHITECTURE

     The architecture of our products embodies the following concepts that make
them enterprise-scalable solutions that are easily deployable and can be
utilized by a wide range of customers:

     - Ease of use and administration. Our products feature quick installation,
       often in a matter of days, ease-of-use for individual users and simple
       maintenance procedures for administrators. Xpedio's features automate
       many tasks that are usually performed manually.

     - Ease of integration. From inception, our products have been built on open
       Web standards enabling seamless integration into existing corporate
       environments. Our component architecture allows customers the ability to
       integrate immediately with other system components. For example, our
       compatibility with Windows NT domains and LDAP security frameworks allows
       our customers to efficiently integrate NT or LDAP central security with
       Xpedio to control and secure access to the content repository without
       duplicating their efforts.

     - Scalability. Our customers' business-critical information needs continue
       to expand and evolve. Our understanding of the scaling of a customer's
       future Web content management needs as volume and bandwidth increase
       across an enterprise ensures that our customers' information investments
       are protected and that they can continue to grow with our products.

                                       39
<PAGE>   41

     - Flexibility. With our open Web standards, multi-platform Java-based
       solution, we offer customers the flexibility to address both current Web
       content management problems and future needs utilizing their existing
       Internet infrastructure.

     We believe Xpedio is a comprehensive solution for organizations that
require rapid Web publishing and sophisticated management of their Web content
across intranets, extranets and the Internet. We believe that by fostering the
creation and adoption of automated Web content management, we will be able to
maintain and extend our technology leadership.

     RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

     We have made substantial investments in research and development through
both internal development and technology acquisitions. The majority of our
recent research and development activity has been focused on developing our
Xpedio Content Management Suite. We expect to develop most of our technology
enhancements internally while continuing to evaluate externally developed
technologies for integration into our Xpedio product line.

     In order to continue to provide product leadership in the Web content
management market, we intend to make major product releases each year. The
success of new introductions is dependent on several factors, including timely
completion and market introduction, differentiation of new products and
enhancements from those of our competitors and market acceptance of new products
and enhancements.

     Our research and development expenditures for fiscal 1997, 1998 and 1999,
were approximately $1.9 million, $2.2 million and $2.2 million. For the first
nine months of fiscal 2000, our research and development expenditures were
approximately $1.9 million. We expect that we will continue to commit
significant resources to research and development in the future. All research
and development costs have been expensed as incurred.

     The market for our products is characterized by rapid technological change,
frequent new product introductions and enhancements, evolving industry standards
and rapidly changing customer requirements. The introduction of products
incorporating new technologies and the emergence of new industry standards could
render existing products obsolete and unmarketable. Our future success will
depend in part on our ability to anticipate changes, enhance our current
products, develop and introduce new products that keep pace with technological
advancements and address the increasingly sophisticated needs of our customers.
We may not be successful in developing and marketing new products and
enhancements that respond to competitive and technological developments and
changing customer needs.

SALES AND MARKETING

     We market and sell our products using a combination of direct and indirect
distribution channels. Our primary distribution channel is our direct sales
force, which targets mid- and large-size organizations. Our sales approach
typically includes a technical systems evaluation performed by our pre-sales
personnel, followed by demonstrations of our products' capabilities and direct
negotiations with our sales staff. In addition, we have an internal
telemarketing operation that is responsible for customer prospecting, lead
generation and follow-up. These activities identify and develop leads for
further sales efforts by our direct sales force. As of December 31, 1999, we had
a worldwide total of 43 direct sales, sales support and marketing personnel. Our
goal is to increase both the number and geographic scope of our direct sales
force.

     We also use indirect sales channels to increase the distribution and
visibility of our products through strategic alliances with resellers, OEMs, key
systems integrators and other channel partners in both domestic and
international markets. None of our distribution partners have exclusive
distribution rights.

     We use a variety of marketing programs to build market awareness of our
brand name and our products, as well as to attract potential customers to our
products. A broad mix of programs is used to accomplish these goals, including
market research, product and strategy updates with industry analysts, public
relations activities, direct mail and relationship marketing programs, seminars,
trade shows, speaking engagements, Web site marketing and joint marketing
programs. Our marketing organization produces marketing materials in support of
sales to prospective customers that include

                                       41
<PAGE>   43

brochures, data sheets, white papers, presentations and demonstrations. Our
joint marketing and distribution partners include Adobe Systems, Inc. and
Verity, Inc. In addition, our Xpedio and Intra.doc! products incorporate Adobe
and Verity technology. Verity also sells our products using its own direct sales
force pursuant to a non-exclusive reseller agreement.

COMPETITION

     The market for Web content management solutions is intensely competitive,
subject to rapid technological change and significantly affected by new product
introductions and other market activities of industry participants. We expect
competition to persist and intensify in the future. Our primary source of
competition is from Web content management products targeted at large Internet
Web sites, including those offered by companies such as Documentum, Inc.,
Interwoven, Inc. and Vignette Corporation. These products are oriented towards
large business-to-consumer Web sites with many collaborating Web developers.

     Many of our competitors have longer operating histories and significantly
greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources than we do and thus
may be able to respond more quickly to new or changing opportunities,
technologies and customer requirements. Also, many current and potential
competitors have greater name recognition and access to larger customer bases
than we have. Such competitors may be able to undertake more extensive
promotional activities and offer more attractive terms to purchasers than we
can. In addition, current and potential competitors have established or may
establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties to
enhance their products. Accordingly, it is possible that new competitors or
alliances among competitors may emerge and rapidly acquire significant market
share.

     Competition in our market could materially and adversely affect our ability
to obtain revenues from software license fees from new or existing customers on
terms favorable to us. Further, competitive pressures may require us to reduce
the price of our software. In either case, we cannot be sure that we will be
able to compete successfully with existing or new competitors or that
competition will not have a material adverse effect on our business, operating
results and financial condition.

PROPRIETARY RIGHTS

     We rely on a combination of copyright, trade secret, trademark,
confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions to protect our proprietary
rights. United States and international copyright laws provide limited
protections for our software, documentation and other written materials. We
license our products in object code format for limited use by customers. We
treat the source code for our products as a trade secret and we require all
employees and third-parties who need access to the source code to sign
non-disclosure agreements. We have registered the trademarks IntraNet Solutions
and Intra.doc!, in the United States and Canada and have applied for trademark
registration in the United States for the Xpedio mark.

     Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties
may attempt to copy aspects of our products or to obtain and use information
that we regard as proprietary. Policing unauthorized use of our products is
difficult, and while we are unable to determine the extent to which piracy of
our software exists, software piracy can be expected to be a persistent problem.
Litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property
rights, to protect our trade secrets, to determine the validity and scope of the
proprietary rights of others or to defend against claims of infringement or
invalidity. However, the laws of many countries do not protect our proprietary
rights to as great an extent as do the laws of the United States. Any litigation
could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and could have a
material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial
condition. Our efforts to protect our proprietary rights may not be adequate or
our competitors may independently develop similar technology. Our failure to

                                       42
<PAGE>   44

meaningfully protect our property could have a material adverse effect on our
business, operating results and financial condition.

     We have not received notice of any claims of infringement, except with
respect to our Xpedio mark as described below. We cannot be sure that third
parties will not make additional claims of infringement with respect to our
current or future products. We expect that developers of Web content management
products will increasingly be subject to infringement claims as the number of
products and competitors in our market grows and as the functionality of
products in different segments of the software industry increasingly overlaps.
Any claims, with or without merit, could be time consuming to defend, result in
costly litigation, divert management's attention and resources, cause product
shipment delays or require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements.
Royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on terms
acceptable to us or at all. A successful claim of product infringement against
us and our failure or inability to license the infringed technology or develop
or license technology with comparable functionality could have a material
adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

     We have been notified by a third party that it believes our Xpedio mark
infringes its trademark. Due to the early stage of this dispute, we are unable
to assess the likelihood that an infringement claim would be successful and we
have not determined how we will respond to this notification. If we are unable
to defend our Xpedio mark we may be required to cease the use of this mark and
to develop and adopt a new mark.

EMPLOYEES

     As of December 31, 1999, we had 108 employees. Our future success will
depend in part on our ability to attract, retain, integrate and motivate highly
qualified sales, technical and management personnel, for whom competition is
intense. From time to time we also employ independent contractors to support our
services, product development, sales and marketing departments. Our employees
are not represented by any collective bargaining unit, and we have never
experienced a work stoppage. We believe our relations with our employees are
good.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     We are not currently a party to any material legal proceedings.

                       PRINCIPAL AND SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

     The following table presents information regarding beneficial ownership of
our common stock as of December 31, 1999, held by each person known by us to be
the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our common stock, each executive
officer, each director, each selling shareholder and all executive officers and
directors as a group. The table also presents the same information as adjusted
to reflect the sale of shares offered hereby. In accordance with the rules of
the SEC, beneficial ownership includes the shares issuable pursuant to stock
options that are exercisable within 60 days of December 31, 1999. Shares
issuable pursuant to stock options are considered outstanding for computing the
percentage of the person holding the options but are not considered outstanding
for computing the percentage of any other person. The number of shares of common
stock outstanding after this offering includes the 2,255,000 shares of common
stock being offered for sale by us in this offering and the exercise of options
to purchase 140,000 shares of common stock and the sale of those shares in this
offering by selling shareholders. The percentage of beneficial ownership for the
following table is based on 17,449,698 shares of common stock outstanding as of
December 31, 1999 and 19,844,698 shares of common stock outstanding after the
completion of this offering, assuming no exercise of the underwriters'

this table, the persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power
with respect to all shares of common stock.

                        SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

     Upon completion of the offering, and after giving effect to the issuance of
140,000 shares included in the offering to selling shareholders upon the
exercise of outstanding options, 19,844,698 shares of common stock will be
outstanding. Of this amount, approximately 14,610,000 shares will be freely
tradable on the public market without restriction or further registration under
the Securities Act of 1933, by persons who are not deemed to be our affiliates
or acting as underwriters as those terms are defined in the Securities Act of
1933. The approximately 3,431,000 remaining shares of common stock are subject
to the resale limitations of Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933. Sales of
these securities must be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or made in
accordance with an exemption from registration, such as Rule 144.

     Rule 144 provides that if at least one year has elapsed since shares of
common stock that constitute "restricted securities" were last acquired from us
or our affiliates, the holder is generally entitled to sell, within any
three-month period, a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of 1% of
the shares of common stock then outstanding or the reported average weekly
trading volume of the common stock during the four calendar weeks immediately
preceding the date on which notice of the sale is sent to the SEC. Sales under
Rule 144 are subject to certain manner of sale restrictions, notice requirements
and availability of current public information concerning us. Rule 144 also
applies the previously described limitations to unregistered sales of our common
stock by our affiliates. A person who is not our affiliate during the three
months preceding the sale, generally may sell shares without regard to the
volume limitations, manner of sale provision, notice requirements or the
availability of public information concerning us, provided that at least two
years have elapsed since the shares were last acquired from us or our
affiliates.

     The representatives have advised us and the selling shareholders that the
underwriters propose to offer the shares of common stock to the public at the
offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus and to certain
dealers at such price less a concession of not in excess of $     per share, of
which $          may be reallowed to other dealers. After the public offering,
the public offering price, concession and reallowance to dealers may be reduced
by the representatives. No such reduction will change the amount of proceeds to
be received by us and the selling shareholders as set forth on the cover page of
this prospectus.

     The underwriting agreement contains covenants of indemnity among the
underwriters, us, and the selling shareholders against civil liabilities,
including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933 and liabilities arising
from breaches of representations and warranties contained in the underwriting
agreement.

     We have granted to the underwriters an option to purchase up to 600,000
additional shares of common stock. The option may be exercised at any time up to
30 days after the date of this prospectus. The option entitles the underwriters
to purchase the additional shares of common stock at the same price per share as
the 4,000,000 shares being sold in this offering. If the underwriters exercise
the option, each of the underwriters must purchase approximately the same
percentage of additional shares from us that they purchased in the primary
offering. If purchased, the additional shares will be sold by the underwriters
on the same terms as those on which the 4,000,000 shares are being sold.

     The price of the shares of common stock purchased by the underwriters will
be the public offering price set forth on this cover page of the prospectus less
the following underwriting discounts and commissions, to be paid by us and the
selling shareholders.

     In September 1999, we engaged Dain Rauscher Incorporated for a minimum
period of twelve months to act as our exclusive financial advisor and to furnish
financial advisory and investment banking services to us with respect to
possible mergers, acquisitions or similar business combinations. Pursuant to the
engagement letter, we paid Dain Rauscher Incorporated customary fees for
financial advisory services rendered in connection with our acquisition of
InfoAccess, Inc.

     Our officers and directors and the selling shareholders have agreed not to
sell, transfer, grant any third party the right to purchase, or otherwise
dispose of any shares of our common stock or other securities of ours that they
own or acquire, other than shares of common stock sold in this offering,
acquired in open market transactions or transferred by gift or will to immediate
family members, for a period of 90 days after the date of this prospectus
without the prior written consent of Dain Rauscher Incorporated. This 90-day
period is known as the lock-up period. The representatives may, without notice
and in their sole discretion, allow any officer or director to dispose of common
stock or other securities prior to the expiration of the lock-up period. There
are however, currently no agreements between the underwriters and any of our
officers or directors allowing such sales.

     In addition, we have agreed that we will not issue, sell, offer to sell, or
otherwise dispose of any shares of our common stock or other securities issued
by us during the lock-up period without the prior consent of Dain Rauscher
Incorporated. This agreement does not include shares of common stock or other
securities issued pursuant to business acquisitions, offerings exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, employee stock option
plans, employee stock purchase plans, or common stock or other securities
outstanding on the date of this prospectus. However, we have agreed that
employee stock options issued during the lock-up period to our officers and
directors may not be exercised prior to the expiration of the lock-up period.
Any shares of common stock issued to our officers and directors during the
lock-up period pursuant to the exercise of stock options shall bear a
restrictive legend restricting the transfer of such shares during the lock-up
period.

     A prospectus in electronic format is being made available on an Internet
Web site maintained by Wit SoundView's affiliate, Wit Capital Corporation. Other
than the prospectus in electronic format, the information on Wit Capital
Corporation's Web site and any information contained on any other Web site
maintained by Wit Capital Corporation is not part of this prospectus or the
registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, has not been
approved and/or endorsed by us or any underwriter in its capacity as underwriter
and should not be relied upon by investors.

     The underwriters have advised us that, in connection with this offering,
certain persons participating in this offering may engage in transactions that
may have the effect of stabilizing or maintaining the market price of the common
stock at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market.
These transactions may include stabilizing bids, syndicate covering transactions
and the imposition of penalty bids. A "stabilizing bid" is a bid for or the
purchase of common stock on behalf of the underwriters for the purpose of
preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the common stock. A
"syndicate covering transaction" is the bid for or the purchase of the common
stock on behalf of the underwriters to reduce a short position incurred by the
underwriters in connection with this offering. A "penalty bid" is an arrangement
permitting the representatives to reclaim the selling concession otherwise
accruing to an underwriter or syndicate member in connection with the offering
if the common stock originally sold by such underwriter or syndicate member is
purchased by the representatives in a syndicate covering transaction and has
therefore not been effectively placed by such underwriter or syndicate member.
The representatives have advised us that such transactions may be affected on
the Nasdaq National Market or otherwise and, if commenced, may be discontinued
at any time.

     As permitted by Rule 103 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, certain
underwriters and selling group members, if any, that are market makers ("passive
market makers") in the common stock may make bids for or purchases of common
stock in the Nasdaq National Market until a stabilizing bid has been made. Rule
103 generally provides that: (1) a passive market maker's net daily purchases of
the common stock may not exceed 30% of its average daily trading volume in such
securities for the two full consecutive calendar months, or any 60 consecutive
days ending with the 10 days, immediately preceding the filing date of the
registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part; (2) a passive
market maker may not effect transactions or display bids for common

                                       49
<PAGE>   51

stock at a price that exceeds the highest independent bid for the common stock
by persons who are not passive market makers; and (3) bids made by passive
market makers must be identified as such.

               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
IntraNet Solutions, Inc.

     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of IntraNet
Solutions, Inc. and subsidiaries as of March 31, 1999 and 1998, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity (deficit) and cash
flows for each of the two years in the period ended March 31, 1999. 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 IntraNet
Solutions, Inc. and subsidiaries as of March 31, 1999 and 1998 and the
consolidated results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for
each of the two years in the period ended March 31, 1999 in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

     We previously audited and reported on the consolidated balance sheets of
IntraNet Solutions, Inc. and subsidiaries as of March 31, 1999 and 1998 and the
related statements of operations, shareholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows
for each of the two years in the period ended March 31, 1999, prior to their
restatement for a pooling of interests transaction which occurred in September
1999. The contribution of IntraNet Solutions, Inc. and subsidiaries to total
assets, revenues, and net loss represented 86 percent, 83 percent and 63 percent
of the respective related totals as of March 31, 1999 and 91 percent, 88 percent
and 78 percent as of March 31, 1998. Separate financial statements of the other
company included in the March 31, 1999 and March 31, 1998 restated consolidated
balance sheets and statements of operations and cash flows were audited and
reported on separately by us. We also audited the combination of the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations,
shareholders' equity and cash flows for the years ended March 31, 1999 and 1998,
after restatement for the September 1999 pooling of interests; in our opinion,
such consolidated statements have been properly combined on the basis described
in Note 1 of notes to consolidated financial statements.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
IntraNet Solutions, Inc.

     We have audited the consolidated statements of operations, shareholders'
equity, and cash flows of IntraNet Solutions, Inc. and subsidiaries for the year
ended March 31, 1997. 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 audit. We did not audit the 1997 financial
statements of InfoAccess, Inc., which statements reflect total revenues
constituting 22% of the related consolidated totals. Those statements were
audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our
opinion, insofar as it relates to data included for InfoAccess, Inc., is based
solely on the report of the other auditors.

     We conducted our audit 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 audit and the report of other auditors provide a reasonable
basis for our opinion.

     Since the date of completion of our audit of the accompanying consolidated
financial statements and initial issuance of our report thereon dated June 30,
1997, which report contained an explanatory paragraph regarding the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern, the Company, as discussed in Note 9, has
completed an issuance of its preferred stock and the exercise of stock options
and warrants resulting in net proceeds of $5,151,867 and $4,225,421 in 1998 and
1999, respectively. Therefore, the conditions that raised substantial doubt
about whether the Company will continue as a going concern no longer exist.

     In our opinion, based on our audit and the report of other auditors, the
financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the consolidated results of operations and cash flows of IntraNet Solutions,
Inc. for the year ended March 31, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

Board of Directors
InfoAccess, Inc.

     We have audited the balance sheets of InfoAccess, Inc. as of December 31,
1998 and 1997, and the related statements of operations, shareholders' equity
(deficit), and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1998 which are not contained herein. 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 financial position of InfoAccess, Inc. as of
December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998 in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

                     (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA)

1. NATURE OF THE BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     IntraNet Solutions, Inc. (the Company) is a leading provider of Web-based
content management solutions for intranets, extranets and Internet applications.
The Company's customers are primarily located throughout the United States and
in Europe.

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared to
give effect to the merger between the Company and InfoAccess, Inc. (InfoAccess)
on September 29, 1999. The merger was accounted for as a pooling-of-interests,
and accordingly, the consolidated financial statements have been restated for
all periods presented as if InfoAccess and the Company had always been combined.
In recording the combination, the Company's consolidated statements of
operations for the years ended March 31, 1997, 1998, and 1999 have been combined
with InfoAccess' statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 1996,
1997, and 1998. The consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of March 31,
1998 and 1999 have been combined with the InfoAccess' balance sheets as of
December 31, 1997 and 1998. Net income of InfoAccess for the three months ended
March 31, 1999 of $213 has been included as an other addition in the
consolidated statements of shareholders' equity (deficit) for the nine months
ended December 31, 1999.

     In connection with the merger, the former shareholders and option holders
of InfoAccess common stock received shares and options of IntraNet Solutions,
Inc. common stock at the rate of .31230 shares of IntraNet Solutions, Inc.
common stock for each share of InfoAccess common stock. The Company issued a
total of 1,803 shares of IntraNet Solutions, Inc. common stock in exchange for
all outstanding shares of InfoAccess common stock and reserved 377 shares of
common stock for issuance upon the exercise of InfoAccess options the Company
assumed pursuant to the merger agreement.

     All costs associated with completion of this acquisition, approximately
$1,972, were expensed as incurred. Activity previously reported by the separate
companies and the combined amounts presented in these consolidated financial
statements are summarized below.

     The accompanying financial statements and related footnote data as of
December 31, 1999 and for the nine months ended December 31, 1998 and 1999 are
unaudited, but in the opinion of management include all adjustments (consisting
only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation thereof.
The results of operations for the nine months ended December 31, 1998, and 1999
are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant
intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

     Revenue Recognition: The Company currently derives all of its revenues from
licenses of software products and related services. Product license revenue is
recognized when a purchase order has been received, the product has been
shipped, and no significant obligations remain related to implementation.
Services revenue consists of fees from consulting and maintenance. Consulting
services include needs assessment, software integration, security analysis,
application development and training. The Company bills consulting fees either
on a time and materials basis or on a fixed-price schedule. The Company's
clients typically purchase maintenance agreements annually, and the Company
prices maintenance agreements based on a percentage of the product license fee.
Clients purchasing maintenance agreements receive product upgrades, Web-based
technical support and telephone hot-line support. The Company recognizes revenue
from maintenance agreements ratably over the term of the agreement, typically
one year.

     Customer advances and billed amounts due from customers in excess of
revenue recognized are recorded as deferred revenue.

     The Company adopted Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, Software Revenue
Recognition, and SOP 98-4, Deferral of the Effective Date of a Provision of SOP
97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, as of April 1, 1998. SOP 97-2 and SOP 98-4
provide guidance for recognizing revenue on software transactions and supersede
SOP 91-1, Software Revenue Recognition. The adoption of SOP 97-2 and SOP 98-4
did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial
statements.

     In December 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
issued SOP 98-9 Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, With
Respect to Certain Transactions. For the Company, SOP 98-9 amends SOP 98-4 to
extend the deferral of the application of certain passages of SOP 97-2 provided
by SOP 98-4 through March 31, 1999. All other provisions of SOP 98-9 are
effective for transactions entered into after March 31, 1999. The Company
believes the adoption of SOP 98-9 will not have a material effect on its
consolidated financial statements.

     Cash and Equivalents: The Company considers all short-term, highly liquid
investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and have
original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

     Short-Term Investments: Investments in debt securities with a remaining
maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase are classified as
short-term investments. The carrying value of the investments approximates their
estimated fair market value. As of December 31, 1999 the Company's investments
were in commercial paper and U.S. Government Agency securities. All investments
have a contractual maturity of three months or less and are held to maturity.

     Accounts Receivable: Accounts receivable is presented net of allowances of
$413, $315 and $373 as of March 31, 1998 and 1999 and December 31, 1999,
respectively. No customer has accounted for 10% or more of the Company's
revenues in the years ended March 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999 and nine months ended
December 31, 1998 and 1999. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of the
customer's financial condition and a cash deposit is generally not required. The
Company estimates its potential losses on trade receivables on an ongoing basis
and provides for anticipated losses in the period in which the revenues are
recognized. Credit losses have historically been within management's
expectations.

     Inventories: Inventories, consisting primarily of computer software,
diskettes, manuals, and packaging materials, are valued at the lower of cost
(first-in, first-out) or market value.

     Property and Equipment: Property and equipment, including leasehold
improvements, are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from
three to seven years, or the life of the lease for leasehold improvements,
whichever is shorter. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are expensed when
incurred.

     Software Licenses: The Company acquired various software licenses for use
in its products. The licenses are recorded at cost, and amortized over estimated
useful lives of three to five years. The Company periodically reviews the
expected useful lives and recoverability of these assets.

     Software Development Costs: Software development costs have been accounted
for in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.
86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or
Otherwise Marketed. Under SFAS No. 86 software development costs may be
capitalized once the technological feasibility of the project is established.
The amount of software development costs that may be capitalized is subject to
limitations based on the net realizable value of the potential product. To date,
the period between achieving technological feasibility of the Company's products
and the general availability of the products has been short. Software
development costs qualifying for capitalization have, consequently, been
immaterial. Accordingly, the Company has not capitalized any software
development costs and has instead charged all such costs to research and
development expense.

     Advertising: The Company expenses the cost of advertising as it is
incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended March 31, 1997, 1998, and 1999
was $696, $900 and $903, respectively, and $575 and $908 for the nine months
ended December 31, 1998 and 1999.

     Net Income (Loss) per Common Share: The Company's basic net income (loss)
per share amounts have been computed by dividing net income (loss) by the
weighted average number of outstanding common shares. The Company's diluted net
income (loss) per share is computed by

dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of outstanding common
shares and common share equivalents relating to stock options, when dilutive.
For each of the years ended March 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999 and nine months ended
December 31, 1998 and 1999, the Company incurred net losses and therefore basic
and diluted per share amounts are the same. Common stock equivalent shares
consist of convertible preferred stock (using the if converted method) and stock
options and warrants (using the treasury stock method), as follows (in
thousands) :

     Recently Issued Accounting Standards: In February 1998, the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of Position, or SOP,
98-1, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for
Internal Use. SOP 98-1 establishes the accounting for costs of software products
developed or purchased for internal use, including when such costs should be
capitalized. SOP 98-1 is effective for financial statements for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1998. The Company believes that SOP 98-1 will not
have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

     The Company adopted SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, effective
April 1, 1998. SFAS No. 130 established standards for the reporting and display
of an amount representing comprehensive income and its components as part of the
company's basic financial statements. Comprehensive income includes certain
non-owner changes in equity that currently are excluded from net income. Because
the company historically has not experienced transactions that would be included
in comprehensive income, the adoption of SFAS No. 130 did not have any effect on
the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

     SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
was issued in June 1998 and the Company is not required to adopt SFAS No 133
until April 1, 2000. The Company believes the adoption of SFAS No. 133 will not
have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

     Stock-based Compensation: The Company utilizes the intrinsic value method
for stock-based compensation. Under this method, compensation expense is
recognized for the amount by which the market price of the common stock on the
date of grant exceeds the exercise price of an option.

     Use of 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 those estimates.

3. SALE OF HARDWARE INTEGRATION UNIT

     During the fiscal year ended March 31, 1999, the Company sold the
operations of its hardware integration unit to Osage Systems Group, Inc. (Osage)
for approximately $1,600, and certain future financial consideration from Osage,
dependent on the performance of the unit over the next two years.

     In conjunction with the sale of its hardware integration unit, the Company
entered into a non-competition agreement with Osage. As a result, the Company
recorded the necessary provision for the reserve or write-down of the assets and
contracts associated with the hardware integration unit to their net realizable
value. The gain on the sale of the hardware integration unit operations of $517
has been recorded in the statement of operations as other income.

     Revenues, cost of revenues, and gross profit for the hardware integration
and support unit are as follows:

9. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

     Series A convertible preferred stock: During the year ended March 31, 1998,
the Company issued $4,000 of Series A 5% convertible preferred stock, $5.00
stated value, 1,000 shares designated. The Company issued 800 units, each
consisting of one share of $0.01 par value preferred stock and a warrant to
acquire one share of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $5.18.
The preferred stock is convertible into the Company's common stock at a price
equal to 75% of market value at the time of conversion, with a maximum
conversion price of $3.71 per share and a minimum conversion price of $1.00 per
share. During the year ended March 31, 1998, 350 shares of Series A convertible
preferred stock were converted into 471 shares of common stock. During the year
ended March 31, 1999, 375 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock were
converted into 795 shares of common stock. The remaining Series A convertible
preferred stock was automatically converted into common stock upon the Company's
public sale of equity securities in June 1999.

     In connection with this transaction, the Company recorded a non-cash deemed
dividend of approximately $1,600. The deemed dividend was recorded as a discount
to preferred stock with a corresponding credit to additional paid in capital.
The discount was recognized during the periods in which the shares become
eligible for conversion, which occurred ratably from issuance through

December 31, 1997. The accretion of the discount is reflected in the statement
of operations as an adjustment to net loss, but has no net effect on total
shareholders' equity. The Company also paid $95 and $148 in preferred stock
dividends during the years ended March 31, 1998 and 1999, respectively.

     Series B convertible preferred stock: In May, 1998, the Company issued
$3,000 of Series B 4% convertible preferred stock, $10,000 state value, none
designated. This preferred stock was convertible into the Company's common stock
at a price equal to 84% of market value at the date of conversion with a maximum
conversion price of $7.56 and a minimum conversion price of $1.81. During the
year ended March 31, 1999, all the Series B convertible preferred stock,
including accrued dividends, was converted into 1,037 of shares of common stock.

     In connection with this transaction, the Company recognized a non-cash
deemed dividend of $570. The deemed dividend was recorded as a discount to
preferred stock with a corresponding credit to additional paid-in capital. The
discount was recognized at the date of issue of the preferred stock, the same
date at which the shares were eligible for conversion. The accretion of the
discount is reflected in the statement of operations as an adjustment to net
loss, but has no net effect on total shareholders' equity.

     Warrants: The Company had 1,286 non-redeemable stock purchase warrants with
exercise prices of $2.32 to $8.00 outstanding at March 31, 1999. At December 31,
1999, the Company had 765 non-redeemable stock purchase warrants outstanding
with exercise prices of $2.32 to $8.44. The warrants expire on various dates
through June, 2003.

     In connection with the line of credit from a related party (note 5), the
Company issued a stock purchase warrant, valued at $200 and recorded deferred
financing costs. These costs are being amortized through May 1999, the life of
the related party debt. The warrant represents the right to purchase up to
156,150 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $3.20 per
share. The warrants were exercised in September 1999.

     Stock options: The Company maintains the 1994-1997 Stock Option Plan, the
1997 Director Stock Option Plan and the 1999 Employee Stock Option and
Compensation Plan, (collectively, the Plan), pursuant to which options and other
awards to acquire an aggregate of 3,100, 300 and 1,000 shares, respectively, of
the Company's common stock may be granted. The Company integrated all previously
granted options into the Plan. The Plan is administered by the Board of
Directors, which has the discretion to determine the number and purchase price
of shares subject to stock options (which may be below the fair market value of
the common stock on the date thereof), the term of each option, and the terms of
exercisability.

     Certain options have exercise prices less than the fair market value of the
Company's common stock on the date of the grant. The Company recognizes the
compensation element of these grants over the vesting period of the related
options, generally five years. The options generally vest over periods of one to
five years.

     InfoAccess maintained two stock option plans in which all options were
converted into the right to receive shares of IntraNet Solutions, Inc. stock. As
of March 31, 1999, 260 options to purchase shares were outstanding and
exercisable under a 1990 Amended and Restated Stock Option Plan. Of those, 250
options at $.74 will expire if not exercised by November 8, 2000, and 10 options
at $1.76 per share will expire if not exercised by November 8, 2000.

     Deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets reflect the net tax
effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and
liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax
purposes. The valuation allowance has been established due to the uncertainty of
future taxable income, which is necessary to realize the benefits of the
deferred tax assets. The Company had net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards of
approximately $7,900 and $10,100 at March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1999, which
begin to expire in 2011. These NOL's are subject to annual utilization
limitations due to prior ownership changes.

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

     IntraNet Solutions is governed by Minnesota Statutes Chapter 302A.
Minnesota Statutes Section 302A.521, which provides that a corporation shall
indemnify any person made or threatened to be made a party to any proceeding by
reason of the former or present official capacity of such person against
judgments, penalties, fines, including, without limitation, excise taxes
assessed against such person with respect to an employee benefit plan,
settlements, and reasonable expenses, including attorney's fees and
disbursements, incurred by such person in connection with the proceeding, if,
with respect to the acts or omissions of such person complained of in the
proceeding, such person has not been indemnified by another organization or
employee benefit plan for the same expenses with respect to the same acts or
omissions; acted in good faith; received no improper personal benefit and
Section 302A.255, if applicable, has been satisfied; in the case of a criminal
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct was unlawful; and in
the case of acts or omissions by persons in their official capacity for the
corporation, reasonably believed that the conduct was in the best interests of
the corporation, or in the case of acts or omissions by persons in their
capacity for other organizations, reasonably believed that the conduct was not
opposed to the best interests of the corporation.

     As permitted by Section 302A.251 of the Minnesota Statutes, the Articles of
Incorporation of IntraNet Solutions provide that a director shall have no
personal liability to IntraNet Solutions and its shareholders for a breach of
fiduciary duty as a director, to the fullest extent permitted by law. The
underwriting agreement contains provisions under which IntraNet Solutions on the
one hand, and the underwriters, on the other hand, have agreed to indemnify each
other, including officers and directors of IntraNet Solutions and the
underwriters, and any person who may be deemed to control IntraNet Solutions or
the underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS

     The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities
and Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee
benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration
statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time
shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

     The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

     (1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of
1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this
registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of
prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h)
under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration
statement as of the time it was declared effective.

     (2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act
of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall
be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.

Craig-Hallum Capital Group, Inc.
As Representatives of the several Underwriters
c/o Dain Rauscher Wessels
60 South Sixth Street
Minneapolis, Minnesota 55402

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         IntraNet Solutions, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (the "Company"), and
the shareholders of the Company named in Schedule B hereto (the "Selling
Shareholders") propose, subject to the terms and conditions stated herein, to
issue and sell, or to sell, as the case may be, to the several Underwriters
named in Schedule A hereto (the "Underwriters"), for which you are acting as
representatives (the "Representatives"), an aggregate of [4,000,000] shares (the
"Firm Shares") of Common Stock, $.01 par value, of the Company (the "Common
Stock"), including [2,500,000] shares to be sold by the Company and [1,500,000]
shares to be sold by the Selling Shareholders. The Company also propose, subject
to the terms and conditions stated herein, to sell to the Underwriters, at the
Underwriters' election, up to an aggregate of [600,000] additional shares of
Common Stock (the "Option Shares"). The Firm Shares and the Option Shares are
herein collectively called the "Shares."

         The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"Commission") a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-[ ]) and a
related preliminary prospectus for the registration of the Shares under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"). The registration statement, as
amended at the time it was declared effective, including (i) the information (if
any) deemed to be part thereof pursuant to Rule 430A under the Act and (ii) the
documents incorporated by reference in the prospectus contained therein pursuant
to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the Act is herein referred to as the "Registration
Statement." The form of prospectus first filed by the Company with the
Commission pursuant to Rules 424(b) and 430A under the Act is referred to herein
as the "Prospectus." Each preliminary prospectus included in the Registration
Statement prior to the time it became effective or filed with the Commission
pursuant to Rule 424(a) under the Act is referred to herein as a "Preliminary
Prospectus." Copies of the Registration Statement, including all exhibits and
schedules thereto, any amendments thereto and all Preliminary Prospectuses have
been delivered to you.

         The Company and the Selling Shareholders hereby confirm their
respective agreements with respect to the purchase of the Shares by the
Underwriters as follows:

         1.       Representations and Warranties of the Company.

                  (a) The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with,
each of the Underwriters that:

                            (i) The Registration Statement has been declared
effective under the Act, and no post-effective amendment to the Registration
Statement has been filed as of the date of this Agreement. No stop order
suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and
no proceeding for that purpose has been instituted or threatened by the
Commission.

                            (ii) No order preventing or suspending the use of
any Preliminary Prospectus has been issued by the Commission, nor, to the best
of the Company's knowledge have proceedings for such purpose been instituted,
and each Preliminary Prospectus, at the time of filing thereof, conformed in all
material respects to the requirements of the Act and the rules and regulations
of the Commission promulgated thereunder (collectively, the "Regulations"), and
did not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading; provided, however, the Company makes no representation or warranty
as to information


<PAGE>   2


contained in or omitted in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written
information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through
the Representatives expressly for use in the preparation thereof.

                            (iii) The documents incorporated by reference in the
Prospectus, when they became effective or were filed with the Commission, as the
case may be, conformed in all material respects to the requirements of the Act
or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), as
applicable, and rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, and none of
such documents contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading; and any further documents so filed and
incorporated by reference in the Prospectus or any further amendment or
supplement thereto, when such documents become effective or are filed with the
Commission, as the case may be, will confirm in all material respects to the
requirements of the Act or the Exchange Act, as applicable, and the rules and
regulations of the Commission thereunder and will not contain an untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;
provided, however, that this representation and warranty shall not apply to any
statements or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with information
furnished in writing to the Company by the Underwriters through the
Representatives expressly for use in the preparation thereof;

                            (iv) The Registration Statement conforms, and the
Prospectus and any amendments or supplements thereto will conform, in all
material respects to the requirements of the Act and Regulations. The
Registration Statement does not contain, and neither the Prospectus nor any
amendments or supplements thereto will contain, any untrue statement of a
material fact or omits or will omit, as the case may be, to state any material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein,
in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;
provided, however, that the Company makes no representation or warranty as to
information contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement or the
Prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon, and in
conformity with, written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of
any Underwriter through the Representatives, expressly for use in the
preparation thereof.

                            (v) The Company has been duly organized, is validly
existing as a corporation under the laws of its state of incorporation, has the
corporate power and authority to own, lease, license and use its properties and
conduct its business as described in the Prospectus, and is duly qualified to
transact business and is in good standing in all jurisdictions in which the
conduct of its business or its ownership, leasing, licensing or using of
property requires such qualification and the failure so to qualify would have a
material adverse effect on the business, properties, key personnel, prospects,
condition, financial or otherwise, or results of operations of the Company and
its subsidiaries, taken as a whole (a "Material Adverse Effect").

                            (vi) The Company has no subsidiaries other than
InfoAccess, Inc., IntraNet Distribution Group, Inc. and IntraNet Integration
Group, Inc. (herein referred to as its "subsidiaries"). Each subsidiary of the
Company has been duly incorporated, is validly existing as a corporation in good
standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation, has the
corporate power and authority to own, lease, license and use its properties and
conduct its business as described in the Prospectus, and is duly qualified to
transact business in all jurisdictions in which the conduct of its business or
its ownership, lease, license or use of property requires such qualification and
the failure so to qualify would have a Material Adverse Effect. Other than the
Company's subsidiaries, the Company does not own, directly or indirectly, any
shares of stock or any other equity or long-term debt securities of any
corporation or have any equity interest in any firm, partnership, joint venture,
association or other entity. All outstanding shares of capital stock of each of
the subsidiaries of the Company have been duly authorized and validly issued,
are fully paid and non-assessable, and are owned, directly or indirectly, by the
Company free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and security interests. No
options, warrants or other rights to purchase, agreements or other obligations
to issue, or other rights to convert any obligations into, shares of capital
stock or ownership interests in any of the subsidiaries of the Company are
outstanding.

                            (vii) The outstanding shares of capital stock of the
Company have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and
nonassessable. All offers and sales by the Company of outstanding shares of
capital stock and other securities of the Company, prior to the date hereof,
were made in compliance with the Act and all applicable state securities or blue
sky laws and were not issued in violation of any preemptive right, resale right,
right of first refusal or similar right. The Shares to be issued and sold by the
Company to the Underwriters pursuant to this Agreement have been duly authorized
and, when issued and paid for as




                                       2
<PAGE>   3


contemplated herein, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Each
of the Underwriters will receive good and marketable title to the Shares
purchased by it, free and clear of any and all liens, encumbrances, pledges,
security interests, charges, claims, equitable interests, restrictions and
defects. Except as otherwise stated in the Prospectus, there are no preemptive
rights or other rights to subscribe for or to purchase, or any restriction upon
the voting or transfer of, any shares of capital stock of the Company pursuant
to the Company's charter, bylaws or any agreement or other instrument to which
the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound. Neither the filing of
the Registration Statement nor the offering or the sale of the Shares as
contemplated by this Agreement gives rise to any rights for, or relating to, the
registration of any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Company,
except such rights which have been validly waived or satisfied. Except as
described in the Prospectus, there are no outstanding options, warrants,
agreements or contracts to purchase or preemptive or other rights to purchase,
subscribe for or acquire from the Company any shares of its capital stock or any
securities or obligations convertible into or exercisable for shares of the
Company's capital stock. The Company has the authorized and outstanding capital
stock as set forth under the heading "Capitalization" in the Prospectus as of
the date set forth therein. The outstanding capital stock of the Company,
including the Shares, conforms, and the Shares to be issued by the Company to
the Underwriters will conform, to the description thereof contained in the
Prospectus.

                            (viii) The financial statements, together with the
related notes and schedules as set forth in the Registration Statement and
Prospectus, present fairly the consolidated financial position, results of
operations and changes in financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries
on the basis stated in the Registration Statement at the indicated dates and for
the indicated periods. Such financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied
throughout the periods involved, all adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation of results for such periods have been made, except as otherwise
stated therein and are in accordance with the books and records of the Company.
The summary and selected financial and statistical data included in the
Registration Statement present fairly the information shown therein on the basis
stated in the Registration Statement and have been compiled on a basis
consistent with the financial statements presented therein. The books, records
and accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries accurately and fairly reflect
in all material respects, in reasonable detail, the transactions in and
dispositions of the assets of, and the results of operations of, the Company and
its subsidiaries.

                            (ix) There is no action, suit, claim, proceeding or
investigation pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened or
contemplated against the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any of their
respective officers, directors, properties, assets or rights before any court or
administrative or regulatory agency which, if determined adversely to the
Company or any of its subsidiaries, would, individually or in the aggregate,
result in a Material Adverse Effect except as set forth in the Registration
Statement.

                            (x) The Company has good and marketable title to all
properties and assets reflected in the financial statements hereinabove
described as owned by the Company (or as described in the Prospectus as owned by
the Company), in each case free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, pledges,
security interests, charges, claims, equitable interests, restrictions and
defects, except such as are described in the Prospectus or do not materially
affect the value of such properties and assets and do not materially interfere
with the use made and proposed to be made of such properties and assets by the
Company and its subsidiaries; and any real property and buildings held under
lease by the Company and its subsidiaries are held by them under valid and
enforceable leases with such exceptions set forth in the Prospectus or as are
not material and do not interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of
such property and buildings by the Company and its subsidiaries.

                            (xi) Since the respective dates as of which
information is given in the Registration Statement and Prospectus, as they may
be amended or supplemented, (A) there has not been any material adverse change,
or any development that could reasonably be expected to result in a material
adverse change, in or affecting the condition, financial or otherwise, of the
Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or the business affairs,
management, financial position, shareholders' equity or results of operations of
the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, whether or not occurring in
the ordinary course of business, (B) there has not been any transaction not in
the ordinary course of business entered into by the Company or any of its
subsidiaries which is material to the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a
whole, other than transactions described or contemplated in the Registration
Statement, (C) the Company and its subsidiaries have not incurred any material
liabilities or obligations, direct or indirect or contingent or non-contingent,
which are not in the ordinary course of business or which could result in a
material reduction in the future earnings of the Company and its subsidiaries,
(D) the




                                       3

<PAGE>   4

Company and its subsidiaries have not sustained any material loss or
interference with their respective businesses or properties from fire, flood,
windstorm, accident or other calamity, whether or not covered by insurance, (E)
there has not been any change in the capital stock of the Company (other than
upon the exercise of options and warrants described in the Registration
Statement), or any material increase in the short-term or long-term debt
(including capitalized lease obligations) of the Company and its subsidiaries,
taken as a whole, (F) there has not been any declaration or payment of any
dividends or any distributions of any kind with respect to the capital stock of
the Company, other than any dividends or distributions described or contemplated
in the Registration Statement, or (G) there has not been any issuance of
warrants, options, convertible securities or other rights to purchase or acquire
capital stock of the Company (other than options granted under the Company's
employee stock option plans referred to in the Prospectus).

                            (xii) Neither the Company nor any of its
subsidiaries is in violation of, or in default under, its charter or bylaws, or
any statute, or any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, injunction, decree
or authorization of any court or governmental or administrative agency or body
having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any of their
properties, or any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease,
franchise, license or other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any
of its subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its
subsidiaries is bound or to which any property or assets of the Company or any
of its subsidiaries is subject, which violation or default would have a Material
Adverse Effect.

                            (xiii) The issuance and sale of the Shares by the
Company and the compliance by the Company with all of the provisions of this
Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein will not
violate any provision of the charter or bylaws of the Company or any of its
subsidiaries or any statute or any order, judgment, decree, rule, regulation or
authorization of any court or governmental or administrative agency or body
having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any of their
properties, and will not conflict with, result in a breach or violation of, or
constitute, either by itself or upon notice or passage of time or both, a
default under any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease,
franchise, license or other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any
of its subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its
subsidiaries is bound or to which any property or assets of the Company or any
of its subsidiaries is subject. No approval, consent, order, authorization,
designation, declaration or filing by or with any court or governmental agency
or body is required for the execution and delivery by the Company of this
Agreement and the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated, except
as may be required under the Act or any state securities or blue sky laws or
under the rules and regulations of the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc. (the "NASD"). No further approval or authorization of any
securityholder, the Company's Board of Directors or any duly appointed committee
thereof or others is required for the issuance and sale or transfer of the
Shares, except as may be required by the NASD or under state securities or blue
sky laws.

                            (xiv) The Company and each of its subsidiaries holds
and is operating in compliance with all licenses, approvals, certificates and
permits from governmental and regulatory authorities, foreign and domestic,
which are necessary or material to the conduct of its business as described in
the Prospectus (except where the failure to so hold or operate in compliance

(the "Exchange Act"); and the Shares have been approved for designation upon
notice of issuance on The Nasdaq National Market under the symbol "INRS."

                            (xix) The Company has obtained and delivered to the

sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option to sell, grant any
option right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of,
directly or indirectly, any of the shares of Common Stock or any securities
convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, Common Stock, or (B) enter
into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the
economic consequences of ownership of the shares of Common Stock or any
securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, shares of
Common Stock (whether any such transaction described in clause (A) or (B) above
is to be settled by delivery of the shares of Common Stock or such other

beginning from the date of execution of this Agreement and continuing to and
including the date 90 days after the date of the Prospectus (the "Lock-Up
Period"); provided, however, that such officer or director may, without the
prior written consent of Dain Rauscher Wessels on behalf of the Underwriters,
transfer shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into, or
exercisable or exchangeable for, Common Stock either during his or her lifetime
or, on death, by will or intestacy to members of his or her immediate family or
to trusts exclusively for the benefit of members of his or her immediate family
or in connection with bona fide gifts, provided that, prior to any such
transfer, such transferee executes an agreement, satisfactory to Dain Rauscher
Wessels, pursuant to which such transferee agrees to receive and hold such
shares subject to the provisions of the Lock-Up Agreement and that there shall
be no further transfer except in accordance with the provisions of the Lock-Up
Agreement. For purposes of this paragraph, "immediate family" shall mean the
spouse, lineal descendant, father, mother, brother or sister of such officer or
director. The restrictions on transfers described in the Lock-Up Agreements
shall not apply to (1) the sale of any shares of Common Stock to the
Underwriters pursuant to this Agreement or (2) transactions in shares of Common
Stock acquired in open-market transactions after completion of the Offering.

                            (xx) The Company has not distributed and will not
distribute any prospectus or other offering material in connection with the
offering and sale of the Shares other than any Preliminary Prospectus or the
Prospectus or other materials permitted by the Act to be distributed by the
Company.

                            (xxi) The Company is in compliance with all

filed all federal, state, local and foreign tax returns or reports required to
be filed, and have paid in full all taxes indicated by said returns or reports
and all assessments received by it or any of them to the extent that such taxes
have become due and payable, except where the Company and its subsidiaries are
contesting in good faith such taxes and assessments and there is no tax
deficiency that has been or, to the Company's knowledge, might be asserted
against the Company or any of its subsidiaries which might have a Material
Adverse Effect and all material tax liabilities, whether or not disputed, are
adequately provided for on the books of the Company and its subsidiaries. Except
as set forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, neither the
Company nor any subsidiary has executed or filed with any taxing authority,
foreign or domestic, any agreement extending the period for assessment or
collection of any income taxes or is a party to any pending action or proceeding
by any foreign or domestic governmental agency for assessment or collection of
taxes, and no claims for assessment or collection of taxes have been asserted
against the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

                            (xxiii) The Company and each of its subsidiaries
owns or possesses adequate licenses or other rights to use all patents, patent
applications, trademarks, service marks, tradenames, trademark registrations,
service mark registrations, copyrights, licenses, inventions, trade secrets
know-how, technology and other similar rights necessary for or material to the
conduct of its business as described in the Prospectus (except for failures to
own or possess such rights that would not have a Material Adverse Effect). The
Company has no knowledge of any




                                       5

<PAGE>   6

facts which would preclude it from having rights to its patent applications
described in the Prospectus. Except as disclosed in the Prospectus, the Company
has no knowledge of any infringement by it or its subsidiaries of, or conflicts
with, any patents, patent applications, trademarks, service marks, tradenames,
trademark registrations, service mark registrations, copyrights, licenses,
inventions, trade secrets, know-how, technology or other similar rights of
others, and neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has any knowledge of
or has received any notice or claim of conflict with the asserted rights of
others with respect any of the foregoing.

                            (xxiv) The Company is not, and upon completion of
the sale of Shares contemplated hereby will not be, required to register as an
"investment company" under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

                            (xxv) The Company maintains a system of internal

authorization; (B) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation
of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting

                            (xxvi) Other than as contemplated by this Agreement,
neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has incurred any liability for

contemplated hereby.

                            (xxvii) The Company and its subsidiaries maintain
insurance with insurers of recognized financial responsibility of the types and
in the amounts generally deemed adequate for their respective businesses and
consistent with insurance coverage maintained by similar companies in similar
businesses, including, but not limited to, insurance covering real and personal
property owned or leased by the Company or its subsidiaries against theft,
damage, destruction, acts of vandalism and all other risks customarily insured
against, all of which insurance is in full force and effect; neither the Company
nor any such subsidiary has been refused any insurance coverage sought or
applied for; and neither the Company nor any such subsidiary has any reason to
believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and
when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers
as may be necessary to continue its business at a cost that would not have a
Material Adverse Effect.

                            (xxviii) To the Company's knowledge, no labor
disturbance by the employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries exists or
is imminent; and the Company is not aware of any existing or imminent labor
disturbance by the employees of any of its principal suppliers, subassemblers,
subcontractors or international distributors that might be expected to result in
a material adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise), earnings,
operations, business or business prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries
considered as one enterprise. No collective bargaining agreement exists with any
of the Company's employees and, to the Company's knowledge, no such agreement is
imminent.

                            (xxix) The Company has not distributed and will not
distribute prior to the later of (A) the Closing Date, or any date on which
Option Shares are to be purchased, as the case may be, and (B) completion of the
distribution of the Shares, any offering material in connection with the
offering and sale of the Shares other than any Preliminary Prospectuses, the
Prospectus, the Registration Statement and other materials, if any, permitted by
the Act.

                            (xxx) Neither the Company nor any of its
subsidiaries (nor any person representing the Company or any of its
subsidiaries) has at any time during the last five (5) years (A) made any
payment in violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, or (B) made any
payment to any federal or state governmental officer or official, or other
person charged with similar public or quasi-public duties, other than payments
required or permitted by the laws of the United States or any jurisdiction
thereof.

                            (xxxi) Except as set forth in the Registration
Statement and Prospectus, (i) the Company and each of its subsidiaries is in
compliance with all rules, laws and regulations relating to the use,

treatment, storage and disposal of toxic substances and protection of health or
the environment ("Environmental Laws") which are applicable to its business,
except for such instances of non-compliance as would not individually or in the
aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) neither the Company nor any of
its subsidiaries has received notice from any governmental authority or third
party of an asserted claim under Environmental Laws, which claim is required to

disclosed, (iii) to the knowledge of the Company, neither the Company nor any of
its subsidiaries will be required to make future material capital expenditures

subsidiaries has been designated as a Superfund site pursuant to the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980,
as amended (42 U.S.C. ss. 9601, et seq.), or otherwise designated as a
contaminated site under applicable state or local law.

                       (xxxii) There are no outstanding loans, advances (except
normal advances for business expenses in the ordinary course of business) or
guarantees of indebtedness by the Company to or for the benefit of any of the
officers or directors of the Company or any of the members of the families of
any of them, except as disclosed in the Registration Statement and the
Prospectus.

                       (xxxiii) The Company has filed and made available to the
Underwriters all forms, reports, and documents required to be filed by the
Company with the Commission since March 31, 1999 (including all exhibits, notes,
and schedules thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein)
(collectively, the "Commission Reports"). The Commission Reports (i) at the time
filed, with respect to all of the Commission Reports other than registration
statements filed under the Act, or at the time of their respective effective
dates, with respect to registration statements filed under the Act, complied as
to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Act or
the Exchange Act, as the case may be, and (ii) did not at the time filed or at
the time of their respective effective dates, as the case may be (or if amended
or superseded by a filing prior to the date of this Agreement, then on the date
of such filing), contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state a material fact required to be stated in such Commission Reports or
necessary in order to make the statements in such Commission Reports, in the
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. None of
the Company's subsidiaries is required to file any forms, reports, or other
documents with the Commission.

                   (b) Any certificate signed by any officer of the Company and
delivered to the Representatives or counsel to the Underwriters shall be deemed
to be a representation and warranty of the Company to each Underwriter as to the
matters covered thereby.

          2.      Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Selling
     Shareholders.

                  (a) Each Selling Shareholder severally represents and warrants
to, and covenants and agrees with, each of the Underwriters and the Company
that:

                       (i) Such Selling Shareholder has duly executed and
delivered a Custody Agreement (the "Custody Agreement") with Norwest Bank
Minnesota, N.A., as Custodian, pursuant to which certificates in negotiable form
for the Shares to be sold by such Selling Shareholder hereunder have been placed
in custody for delivery under this Agreement and a Power of Attorney (the "Power
of Attorney") appointing certain individuals as their attorneys-in-fact in
connection with the sale of the Shares.

                       (ii) Such Selling Shareholder has full right, power and
authority to enter into this Agreement, the Power of Attorney and the Custody
Agreement, and to sell, assign, transfer and deliver the Shares to be sold by
such Selling Shareholder hereunder; and all consents, approvals, authorizations
and orders necessary for the execution and delivery by such Selling Shareholder
of this Agreement and the Custody Agreement, and for the sale and delivery of
the Shares to be sold by such Selling Shareholder hereunder, have been obtained,
except such as may be required by any state securities or blue sky laws.

                       (iii) Such Selling Shareholder has, and at the Closing
Date (as such date is hereinafter defined), will have good and valid title to
the Shares to be sold by such Selling Shareholder hereunder, free of any liens,
encumbrances, security interests, equities or claims whatsoever; and upon
delivery of and payment for such Shares pursuant to this Agreement, good and
valid title thereto, free of any liens, encumbrances, security interests,
equities or claims whatsoever, will be transferred to the several Underwriters.


                                       7
<PAGE>   8

                       (iv) The execution and delivery by such Selling
Shareholder of this Agreement and the Custody Agreement and the consummation by
such Selling Shareholder of the transactions herein and therein contemplated and
the fulfillment by such Selling Shareholder of the terms hereof and thereof will
not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms and
provisions of, or constitute a default under, any will, mortgage, deed of trust,
loan agreement or other agreement, instrument or obligation to which such
Selling Shareholder is a party or to which any of the property or assets of such
Selling Shareholder is subject, except for such agreements, instruments or
obligations for which consents have been obtained, nor will such actions result
in any violations of any statute, rule, regulation or order applicable to such
Selling Shareholder of any court or of any regulatory body or administrative
agency or other governmental body having jurisdiction over such Selling
Shareholder.

                       (v) Such Selling Shareholder has not taken and will not
take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to, or which has constituted,
or which might reasonably be expected to cause or result in, stabilization or
manipulation of the price of the Common Stock to facilitate the sale or resale
of the Shares.

                       (vi) To the extent that any statements or omissions made
in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus thereof, the
Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto are made in reliance upon and
in conformity with written information with respect to such Selling Shareholder
furnished to the Company by such Selling Shareholder expressly for use therein,
such Preliminary Prospectus and the Registration Statement did not, and the
Prospectus and any further amendments or supplements to the Registration
Statement and the Prospectus will not, when they become effective or are filed
with the Commission, as the case may be, contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

                       (vii) Such Selling Shareholder will not offer to sell,
sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of any Common Stock or other capital
stock of the Company, directly or indirectly, for a period of 90 days after the
date of the Prospectus, otherwise than as expressly permitted under the Lock-Up
Agreement between such Selling Shareholder and the Representatives.

                       (viii) Such Selling Shareholder has reviewed the
information contained in the Registration Statement and, based on such review
and such Selling Shareholder's knowledge of the industry, the Company and its
business (but without further investigation), such Selling Shareholder does not
have knowledge that, and nothing has come to such Selling Shareholder's
attention that would give such Selling Shareholder reason to believe that, at
the time the Registration Statement became or becomes, as the case may be,
effective and at all times subsequent thereto up to and on the Closing Date, (i)
the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, and any amendments or supplements
thereto, contained or will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
omitted or will omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and (ii) the
Prospectus, and any amendments or supplements thereto effective on or prior to
the Closing Date, contained or will contain any untrue statement of a material
fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the
statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading.

                       (ix) The Shares to be sold by such Selling Shareholder
pursuant to this Agreement have been duly authorized and are validly issued,
fully paid and non-assessable.

                       (x) This Agreement and the Custody Agreement have been
duly executed and delivered by such Selling Shareholder and are valid and
binding agreements of such Selling Shareholder.

                       (xi) Assuming the Underwriters purchase the Shares to be
sold by such Selling Shareholder for value, in good faith and without notice of
any adverse claim within the meaning of Article VIII of the Uniform Commercial
Code, delivery of the Shares to be sold by such Selling Shareholder pursuant to
this Agreement will pass marketable title to such Shares free and clear of any
security interests, claims, liens, equities and other encumbrances.



                                       8
<PAGE>   9


                  (b) In order to document the Underwriters' compliance with the
reporting and withholding provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended, with respect to the transactions herein contemplated, each Selling
Shareholder agrees to deliver to you prior to or at the Closing Date a properly
completed and executed United States Treasury Department Form W-9 (or other
applicable form or statement specified by Treasury Department regulations in
lieu thereof).

                  (c) Each Selling Shareholder specifically agrees that the
Shares represented by the certificates held in custody for such Selling
Shareholder under the Custody Agreement are subject to the interests of the
Underwriters hereunder, and that the arrangements made by such Selling
Shareholder for such custody are to that extent irrevocable. Such Selling
Shareholder specifically agrees that the obligations of such Selling Shareholder
hereunder shall not be terminated by operation of law, whether by the death or
incapacity of such Selling Shareholder or by the occurrence of any other event.
If such Selling Shareholder should die or become incapacitated, or if any other
such event should occur before the delivery of the Shares hereunder,
certificates representing the Shares shall be delivered by or on behalf of such
Selling Shareholder in accordance with the terms and conditions of this
Agreement and of the Custody Agreement shall be as valid as if such death,
incapacity or other event had not occurred, regardless of whether or not the
Custodian shall have received notice of such death, incapacity or other event.

                  (d) Any certificate signed by or on behalf of any Selling
Shareholder and delivered to the Representatives or to counsel to the
Underwriters shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty of such Selling
Shareholder to each Underwriter as to the matters covered thereby.

         3. Purchase, Sale and Delivery of Shares. On the basis of the
representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, and subject to the
terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company and each Selling Shareholder
agree, severally and not jointly, to sell to each Underwriter and each
Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company and
each Selling Shareholder, at a price of $[ ] per share, the number of Firm
Shares (to be adjusted by you to eliminate fractional shares) determined by
multiplying the aggregate number of Firm Shares to be sold by the Company and
each Selling Shareholder, as set forth opposite their respective names in
Schedule B hereto, by a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate number
of Firm Shares to be purchased by such Underwriter as set forth opposite the
name of such Underwriter in Schedule A hereto and the denominator of which is
the aggregate number of Firm Shares to be purchased by all the Underwriters from
the Company and the Selling Shareholders hereunder.

         In addition, on the basis of the representations, warranties and
covenants contained herein and subject to the terms and conditions herein set
forth, the Company hereby grants, to the several Underwriters an option to
purchase at the Underwriters' election up to the number of Option Shares, at the
same price per share as set forth for the Firm Shares in the paragraph above,
for the sole purpose of covering over allotments in the sale of the Firm Shares.
The option granted hereby may be exercised in whole or in part, but only once,
and at any time upon written notice given within 30 days after the date of this
Agreement, by you, as Representatives of the several Underwriters, to the
Company, and the Custodian setting forth the number of Option Shares as to which
the several Underwriters are exercising the option and the time and date at
which certificates are to be delivered. If any Option Shares are purchased, each
Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase that portion of the
number of Option Shares as to which such election shall have been exercised
(subject to adjustment to eliminate fractional shares) determined by multiplying
such number of Option Shares by a fraction the numerator of which is the maximum
number of Option Shares which such Underwriter is entitled to purchase as set
forth opposite the name of such Underwriter in Schedule A hereto and the
denominator of which is the maximum number of Option Shares which all of the
Underwriters are entitled to purchase hereunder. The time and date at which
certificates for Option Shares are to be delivered shall be determined by the
Representatives but shall not be earlier than two or later than ten full
business days after the exercise of such option, and shall not in any event be
prior to the Closing Date. If the date of exercise of the option is three or
more full days before the Closing Date, the notice of exercise shall set the
Closing Date as the Option Closing Date.

         Certificates in definitive form for the Shares to be purchased by each
Underwriter hereunder, and in such denominations and registered in such names as
Dain Rauscher Wessels may request upon at least forty-eight hours' prior notice
to the Company, shall be delivered by or on behalf of the Company and such
Selling Shareholder to you for the account of such Underwriter at such time and
place as shall hereafter be designated by the Representatives,




                                       9

<PAGE>   10


against payment by such Underwriter or on its behalf of the purchase price
therefor by certified or official bank checks, payable to the order of the
Company and such Selling Shareholder in same day funds. The time and date of
such delivery and payment shall be, with respect to the Firm Shares, 8:30 a.m.,
Minneapolis, Minnesota time, at the offices of Faegre & Benson, LLP,
Minneapolis, Minnesota, on the third (or if the Shares are priced, as
contemplated by Rule 15c6-1(c) under the Exchange Act, after 4:30 p.m. Eastern
time, the fourth) full business day following the date hereof, or at such other
time and date as you and the Company determine pursuant to Rule 15c6-1(a) under
the Exchange Act, such time and date being herein referred to as the "Closing
Date," and, with respect to the Option Shares, at the time and on the date
specified by you in the written notice given by you of the Underwriters'
election to purchase the Option Shares, or such other time and date as you and
the Company may agree upon in writing, such time and date being referred to
herein as the "Option Closing Date." Such certificates will be made available
for checking and packaging at least twenty-four hours prior to the Closing Date
or the Option Closing Date, as the case may be, at a location as may be
designated by you.

         4. Offering by Underwriters. It is understood that the several
Underwriters propose to make a public offering of the Firm Shares as soon as the
Representatives deem it advisable to do so. The Firm Shares are to be initially
offered to the public at the initial public offering price and terms set forth
in the Prospectus. The Representatives may from time to time thereafter change
the public offering price and other selling terms. To the extent, if at all,
that any Option Shares are purchased pursuant to Section 3 hereof, the
Underwriters will offer such Option Shares to the public on the foregoing terms.

         5.       Covenants of the Company. The Company covenants and agrees
with the Underwriters that:

                  (a) The Company will prepare and timely file with the
Commission under Rule 424(b) under the Act a Prospectus containing information
previously omitted at the time of effectiveness of the Registration Statement in
reliance on Rule 430A under the Act, and will not file any amendment to the
Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus of which the
Representatives shall not previously have been advised and furnished with a copy
and as to which the Representatives shall have reasonably objected in writing
promptly after reasonable notice thereof or which is not in compliance with the
Act or the Regulations.

                  (b) The Company will timely file with the Commission all
reports and any definitive proxy or information statements required to be filed
by the Company with the Commission pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or
15(d) of the Exchange Act subsequent to the date of the Prospectus and for so
long as the delivery of a prospectus is required in connection with the offering
or sale of the Shares.

                  (c) The Company will advise the Representatives promptly of
any request of the Commission for amendment of the Registration Statement or for
any supplement to the Prospectus or for any additional information, or of the
issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement or the use of the Prospectus, of the suspension of the
qualification of the Shares for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or of the
institution or threatening of any proceedings for that purpose, and the Company
will use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order
preventing or suspending the use of the Prospectus or suspending such
qualification and to obtain as soon as possible the lifting thereof, if issued.

                  (d) The Company will endeavor to qualify the Shares for sale
under the securities laws of such jurisdictions as the Representatives may
reasonably have designated in writing and will, or will cause counsel to, make
such applications, file such documents, and furnish such information as may be
reasonably requested by the Representatives, provided that the Company shall not
be required to qualify as a foreign corporation or to file a general consent to
service of process in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or
required to file such a consent. The Company will, from time to time, prepare
and file such statements, reports and other documents as are or may be required
to continue such qualifications in effect for so long a period as the
Representatives may reasonably request for distribution of the Shares.

                  (e) The Company will furnish the Underwriters with as many
copies of any Preliminary Prospectus as the Representatives may reasonably
request and, during the period when delivery of a prospectus is required under
the Act, the Company will furnish the Underwriters with as many copies of the
Prospectus in final form, or as thereafter amended or supplemented, as the
Representatives may, from time to time, reasonably request.

The Company will deliver to the Representatives, at or before the Closing Date,
five signed copies of the Registration Statement and all amendments thereto
including all exhibits filed therewith, and will deliver to the Representatives
such number of copies of the Registration Statement, without exhibits, and of
all amendments thereto, as the Representatives may reasonably request.

                  (f) If, during the period in which a prospectus is required by
law to be delivered by an Underwriter or dealer, any event shall occur as a
result of which the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include an
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary
in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances existing
at the time the Prospectus is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, or if
for any other reason it shall be necessary at any time to amend or supplement
the Prospectus to comply with any law, the Company promptly will prepare and
file with the Commission an appropriate amendment to the Registration Statement
or supplement to the Prospectus so that the Prospectus as so amended or
supplemented will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein in
light of the circumstances existing when it is so delivered, not misleading, or
so that the Prospectus will comply with law. In case any Underwriter is required
to deliver a prospectus in connection with sales of any Shares at any time nine
months or more after the effective date of the Registration Statement, upon the
request of the Representatives but at the expense of such Underwriter, the
Company will prepare and deliver to such Underwriter as many copies as the
Representatives may request of an amended or supplemented Prospectus complying
with Section 10(a)(3) of the Act.

                  (g) The Company will make generally available to its security
holders, as soon as it is practicable to do so, but in any event not later than
18 months after the effective date of the Registration Statement, an earnings
statement (which need not be audited) in reasonable detail, covering a period of
at least 12 consecutive months beginning after the effective date of the
Registration Statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the requirements
of Section 11(a) of the Act and Rule 158 thereunder and will advise you in
writing when such statement has been so made available.

                  (h) During a period of five (5) years after the date hereof,
or such shorter period that the Company remains subject to the periodic
reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Company, as soon as practicable
after the end of each respective financial quarter or year, as applicable, will
furnish to its shareholders annual reports (including financial statements
audited by independent certified public accountants) and will, upon request,
furnish to you and the other several Underwriters hereunder (i) concurrently
with making such reports available to its shareholders, statements of operations
of the Company for each of the first three quarters in the form made available
to the Company's shareholders; (ii) concurrently with the furnishing thereof to
its shareholders, a balance sheet of the Company as of the end of such fiscal
year, together with statements of operations, of shareholders' equity and of
cash flow of the Company for such fiscal year, accompanied by a copy of the
certificate or report thereon of nationally recognized independent certified
public accountants; (iii) concurrently with the furnishing of such reports to
its shareholders, copies of all reports (financial or other) mailed to
shareholders; and (iv) as soon as they are available, copies of all reports and
financial statements furnished to or filed with the Commission, any securities
exchange or The Nasdaq National Market by the Company (except for documents for
which confidential treatment is requested).

                  (i) No offering, sale or other disposition of any Common Stock
or other capital stock of the Company, or warrants, options, convertible
securities or other rights to acquire such Common Stock or other capital stock
(other than pursuant to employee stock option plans, employee stock purchase
plans, outstanding options or on the conversion of convertible securities
outstanding on the date of this Agreement; (ii) in connection with business
acquisitions or (iii) pursuant to offerings exempt from the registration
requirements of the Act, provided that the Company shall not register the resale
of Common Stock or other capital stock of the Company, or warrants, options,
convertible securities or other rights to acquire such Common Stock or other
capital stock issued or issuable pursuant to such exempt transaction during the
Lock-Up Period; provided, that any employee stock options issued pursuant to
employee stock option plans during the Lock-Up Period shall not vest and become
exercisable to any extent prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period; and,
provided further, that any shares of Common Stock issued to any current officer
or director during the Lock-Up Period pursuant to the exercise of stock options
shall bear a restrictive legend restricting the transfer of such shares during
the Lock-Up Period) will be made from the date of this Agreement until the end
of the Lock-Up Period, directly or indirectly, by the Company otherwise than
hereunder or with the prior written consent of the Representatives.

                  (j) The Company will apply the net proceeds from the sale of
the Shares to be sold by it hereunder substantially in accordance with the
purposes set forth under "Use of Proceeds" in the Prospectus. The Company will
invest such proceeds pending their use in such a manner that, upon completion of
such investment, the Company will not be an "investment company" as defined in
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

                  (k) The Company will use its best efforts to maintain the
designation of the Common Stock on The Nasdaq National Market.

                  (l) From the date of this Agreement until the termination of
the Lock-Up Period, the Company will not, without the prior written consent of
Dain Rauscher Wessels on behalf of the Underwriters, alter or amend in any
manner the vesting schedule of any option, warrant or other security of the
Company or its subsidiaries.

                  (m) The Company will maintain a Transfer Agent and, if
necessary under the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company, a Registrar
(which may be the same entity as the Transfer Agent) for its Common Stock.

                  (n) If the Company elects to rely upon Rule 462(b) under the
Act ("Rule 462(b)"), the Company shall file with the Commission a registration
statement pursuant to Rule 462(b) (a "462(b) Registration Statement") by 10:00
p.m. Washington D.C. time, on the date of this Agreement and the Company shall
at the time of filing either pay to the Commission the filing fee for the Rule
462(b) Registration Statement or give irrevocable instructions for the payment
of such fee pursuant to Rule 111(b) under the Act.

         6. Costs and Expenses. Whether or not the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement are consummated, the Company will pay (directly or by
reimbursement) all costs, expenses and fees incident to the performance of the
obligations of the Company and the Selling Shareholders under this Agreement,
including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the following:
accounting fees of the Company; the fees and disbursements of counsel for the
Company, the cost of preparing, printing and filing of the Registration
Statement, Preliminary Prospectuses and the Prospectus and any amendments and
supplements thereto and the printing, mailing and delivery to the Underwriters
and dealers of copies thereof and of this Agreement, the Agreement Among
Underwriters, any Selected Dealers Agreement, the Underwriters' Selling
Memorandum, the Invitation Letter, the Power of Attorney, the Blue Sky
Memorandum and any supplements or amendments thereto (excluding, except as
provided below, fees and expenses of counsel to the Underwriters); the filing
fees of the Commission; the filing fees and expenses (including legal fees and
disbursements of counsel for the Underwriters) incident to securing any required
review by the NASD of the terms of the sale of the Shares; listing fees, if any,
transfer taxes and the expenses, including the fees and disbursements of counsel
for the Underwriters incurred in connection with the qualification of the Shares
under state securities or blue sky laws; the fees and expenses incurred in
connection with the designation of the Common Stock on The Nasdaq National
Market; the costs of preparing stock certificates; the costs and fees of any
registrar or transfer agent and all other costs and expenses incident to the
performance of its obligations hereunder which are not otherwise specifically
provided for in this Section 6. In addition, the Company will pay all travel and
lodging expenses incurred by management of the Company in connection with any
informational "road show" meetings held in connection with the offering and will
also pay for the preparation of all materials used in connection with such
meetings. The Selling Shareholders will pay the fees and expenses of any
separate counsel retained by them in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereby. The Company and the Selling Shareholders shall not,
however, be required to pay for any of the Underwriters' expenses (other than
those related to qualification of the Shares under state securities or blue sky
laws and those incident to securing any required review by the NASD of the terms
of the sale of the Shares but including, without limitation, the Underwriter
expenses specified in Section 5(e) of this Agreement) except that, if this
Agreement shall not be consummated because the conditions in Section 7 hereof
are not satisfied or because this Agreement is terminated by the Representatives
pursuant to clause (i) of Section 11(a) hereof, or by reason of any failure,
refusal or inability on the part of the Company or the Selling Shareholders to
perform any undertaking or satisfy any condition of this Agreement or to comply
with any of the terms hereof on their respective parts to be performed, unless
such failure to satisfy said condition or to comply with said terms shall be due
to the default or omission of any Underwriter, then the Company shall promptly
upon request by the Representatives reimburse the several Underwriters for all
appropriately itemized out-of-pocket accountable expenses, including fees and
disbursements of counsel, reasonably




                                       12

incurred in connection with investigating, marketing and proposing to market the
Shares or in contemplation of performing their obligations hereunder; but the
Company and the Selling Shareholders shall not in any event be liable to any of
the several Underwriters for damages on account of loss of anticipated profits
from the sale by them of the Shares.

         7. Conditions of Obligations of the Underwriters. The several
obligations of the Underwriters to purchase the Firm Shares on the Closing Date
and the Option Shares, if any, on the Option Closing Date, are subject to the
condition that all representations and warranties of the Company, and the
Selling Shareholders contained herein are true and correct, at and as of the
Closing Date or the Option Closing Date, as the case may be, the condition that
the Company and the Selling Shareholders shall have performed all of their
respective covenants and obligations hereunder (to the extent performance of
such covenants and obligations are due at such times) and to the following
additional conditions:

            (a) The Prospectus shall have been filed with the Commission
pursuant to Rule 424(b) within the applicable time period prescribed for such
filing by the Regulations and in accordance with Section 5(a) hereof; if the
Company has elected to rely upon Rule 462(b), the Rule 462(b) Registration
Statement shall have become effective by 10:00 p.m., Washington D.C. time, on
the date of this Agreement; no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement, as amended from time to time, or any part thereof shall
have been issued and no proceedings for that purpose shall have been initiated
or threatened by the Commission; and all requests for additional information on
the part of the Commission shall have been complied with to the reasonable
satisfaction of the Representatives.

            (b) The Representatives shall have received on the Closing Date or
the Option Closing Date, as the case may be, the opinion of Faegre & Benson LLP,
counsel for the Company [and the Selling Shareholders], dated the Closing Date
or the Option Closing Date, as the case may be, addressed to the Underwriters,
to the effect that:

                (i) The Company has been duly organized and is validly existing
as a corporation under the laws of its state of incorporation, with corporate
power and authority to own, lease, license and use its properties and conduct
its business as described in the Prospectus, and is duly qualified to transact
business and is in good standing in all jurisdictions in which the conduct of
its business or its ownership, lease, license or use of property requires such
qualification and the failure so to qualify would have a Material Adverse
Effect.

                (ii) The Company has authorized and outstanding capital stock as
described in the Prospectus as of the date set forth therein. The outstanding
shares of the Company's capital stock have been duly authorized and validly
issued and are fully paid and nonassessable. The form of certificate for the
Shares is in due and proper form and complies with the requirements of
applicable state corporation laws. The Shares to be issued and sold by the
Company pursuant to this Agreement have been duly authorized and, when issued
and paid for as contemplated herein, will be validly issued, delivered, fully
paid and nonassessable. No preemptive right, co-sale right, registration right,
right of first refusal or other similar right of shareholders of the Company, or
of holders of warrants, options, convertible securities or other rights to
acquire shares of capital stock of the Company, exist with respect to any of the
Shares or the issue and sale thereof (i) pursuant to the terms of the Company's
charter or bylaws or (ii) to the knowledge of such counsel, pursuant to the
terms of any agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which
the Company is bound. To the knowledge of such counsel, no rights to register
outstanding shares of the Company's capital stock, or shares issuable upon the
exercise of outstanding warrants, options, convertible securities or other
rights to acquire shares of such capital stock, exist which have not been
validly exercised or waived with respect to the Registration Statement. The
capital stock of the Company, including the Shares, conforms in all material
respects as to legal matters to the description thereof contained in the
Prospectus.

                (iii) The Registration Statement has become effective under the
Act and, to the knowledge of such counsel, no stop order suspending the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued under the Act and no
proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are pending or threatened
by the Commission.



                                       13
<PAGE>   14


                (iv) The Registration Statement, the Prospectus and each
amendment or supplement thereto comply as to form in all material respects with
the requirements of the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder (except
that such counsel need express no opinion as to the financial statements and the
notes thereto and related schedules and other financial data included therein or
omitted therefrom).

                (v) The statements (A) in the Prospectus under the caption
"Shares Eligible for Future Sale" and (B) in the Registration Statement in Item
15 insofar as such statements constitute a summary of matters of law, are, in
all material respects, accurate summaries and fairly present the information
required to be stated.

                (vi) The documents incorporated by reference in the Prospectus
or any further amendment or supplement thereto made by the Company prior to the
Closing Date or the Option Closing Date (other than the financial statements and
related schedules therein, as to which such counsel need express no opinion),
when they became effective or were filed with the Commission, as the case may
be, complied as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the
Commission thereunder; and they have no reason to believe that any of such
documents, when such documents became effective or were so filed, as the case
may be, contained, in the case of a registration statement which became
effective under the Act, an untrue statement of a material fact, or omitted to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, or, in the case of other documents which were
filed under the Exchange Act with the Commission, an untrue statement of a
material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the
statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made
when such documents were so filed, not misleading.

                (vii) Such counsel does not know of any contracts, agreements,
documents or instruments required to be filed as exhibits to the Registration
Statement or described in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus which are
not so filed or described as required; and insofar as any statements in the
Registration Statement or the Prospectus constitute summaries of any contract,
agreement, document or instrument, such statements are, in all material
respects, accurate summaries and fairly present the information required to be
stated.

                (viii) Such counsel knows of no legal or governmental
proceeding, pending or threatened, before any court or administrative body or
regulatory agency, to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or
to which any of the properties of the Company or any of its subsidiaries is
subject that are required to be described in the Registration Statement or
Prospectus and are not so described, or statutes or regulations that are
required to be described in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus that
are not so described as required.

                (vix) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the
consummation of the transactions herein contemplated do not and will not
conflict with or result in a violation of or default under the charter or bylaws
of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or under any statute, permit,
judgment, decree, order, rule or regulation known to such counsel of any court
or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of
its subsidiaries or any of their properties (other than the state securities and
blue sky laws, as to which such counsel need express no opinion) and do not and
will not conflict with or result in a violation of or default under (except for
such conflicts, violations or defaults as would not have a Material Adverse
Effect) under any lease, license, contract, indenture, mortgage, loan agreement
or other agreement or other instrument or obligation known to such counsel to
which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company
or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which any property or assets of the
Company or any of its subsidiaries is subject, except such agreements,
instruments or obligations with respect to which valid consents or waivers have
been obtained by the Company.

                (x) To such counsel's knowledge, neither the Company nor any of
its subsidiaries is in violation of, or in default under, its charter or bylaws,
or any statute, or any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, injunction,
decree or authorization of any court or governmental or administrative agency or
body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any of
their properties, or any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement,
lease, franchise, license or other agreement or instrument to which the Company
or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its
subsidiaries is bound or to which any property or




                                       14
<PAGE>   15

assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries is subject, which violation or
default would have a Material Adverse Effect.

                (xi) The Company has the corporate power and authority to enter
into this Agreement and to authorize, issue, sell and deliver the Shares to be
sold by the Company as contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly and
validly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company.

                (xii) No approval, consent, order, authorization, designation,
declaration, qualification or filing by or with any judicial, regulatory,
administrative or other governmental body is necessary in connection with the
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the
transactions herein contemplated (other than as may be required by state
securities and blue sky laws, as to which such counsel need express no opinion)
except such as have been obtained or made.

                (xiii) The Company is not, and immediately upon completion of
the sale of Shares contemplated hereby will not be, required to register as an
"investment company" under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

                (xiv) Although such counsel assumes no responsibility for the
factual accuracy or completeness of the statements contained in the Registration
Statement or the Prospectus, except for those referred to in the opinion in
subsections (ii) and (v) of this Section 7(b) and on the basis of the procedures
undertaken by such counsel (and relying as to materiality to the extent such
counsel deems appropriate upon opinions of officers and other representatives of
the Company), no facts have come to the attention of such counsel that cause it
to believe that the Registration Statement and any amendments and supplements
thereto, at the time they became effective and as of the Closing Date or the
Option Closing Date, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted
to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made,
not misleading, or that the Prospectus or any further amendment or supplement
thereto, at the time it was transmitted to the Commission for filing pursuant to
Rule 424(b) and as of the Closing Date and the Option Closing Date, included an
untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact
necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading, except that such counsel need not
express any opinion with respect to the financial statements and supporting
schedules and other financial data included in the Registration Statement and
the Prospectus.

         (c)    The Representatives shall have received on the Closing Date or
the Option Closing Date, as the case may be, the opinion of [Faegre & Benson
LLP], counsel for each of the Selling Shareholders, dated the Closing Date or
the Option Closing Date, as the case may be, addressed to the Underwriters, to
the effect that:

                (i) A Custody Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by
such Selling Shareholder and is the valid and binding agreement of such Selling
Shareholder.

                (ii) This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such
Selling Shareholder.

                (iii) The sale of the Shares to be sold by such Selling
Shareholder hereunder and the compliance by such Selling Shareholder with all of
the provisions of this Agreement and the Custody Agreement, and the consummation
of the transactions herein and therein contemplated, will not conflict with or
result in a breach or violation of any terms or provisions of, or constitute a
default under, any statute, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan
agreement or other agreement or instrument known to such counsel to which such
Selling Shareholder is a party or by which such Selling Shareholder is bound or
to which any of the property or assets of such Selling Shareholder is subject,
nor will such action result in any violation of any order, rule or regulation
known to such counsel of any court or governmental agency or body having
jurisdiction over such Selling Shareholder or the property of such Selling
Shareholder.

                (iv) No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court
or governmental agency or body is required for the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement in connection with the Shares to be
sold by such Selling Shareholder hereunder, except such consents, approvals,
authorizations or orders as have been validly obtained and are in full force and
effect, such as have been obtained under the Act, and



                                       15

<PAGE>   16


such as may be required under the state securities or blue sky laws in
connection with the purchase and distribution of such Shares by the
Underwriters, as to which such counsel need express no opinion.

                (v) Such Selling Shareholder has full right, power and authority
to sell, assign, transfer and deliver the Shares to be sold by such Selling
Shareholder hereunder.

                (vi) Upon delivery of the Shares being sold by such Selling
Shareholder and payment therefor, good and valid title to the Shares being sold
by such Selling Shareholder, free and clear of any claims, liens, encumbrances,
security interests or other adverse claims, will be transferred to each of the
several Underwriters who have purchased such Shares in good faith and without
notice of any such claim, lien, encumbrance, security interest or other adverse
claim within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code.

         (d) The Representatives shall have received from Dorsey & Whitney LLP,
counsel for the Underwriters, an opinion dated the Closing Date or the Option
Closing Date, as the case may be, with respect to the incorporation of the
Company, the validity of the Shares, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus,
and other related matters as the Representatives may reasonably request, and
such counsel shall have received such papers and information as they may
reasonably request to enable them to pass upon such matters.

         (e) The Representatives shall have received on each of the date hereof,
the Closing Date and the Option Closing Date, as the case may be, a signed
letter, dated as of the date hereof, the Closing Date or the Option Closing
Date, as the case may be, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Representatives, from Grant Thornton LLP and Ernst & Young LLP, to the effect
that they are independent public accountants with respect to the Company and its
subsidiaries within the meaning of the Act and the related rules and regulations
and containing statements and information of the type ordinarily included in
accountants' "comfort letters" to underwriters with respect to the financial
statements and certain financial information contained in the Registration
Statement and the Prospectus.

         (f) Subsequent to the execution and delivery of this Agreement and
prior to the Closing Date or the Option Closing Date, as the case may be, there
shall not have been any change or any development involving a prospective
change, in or affecting the general affairs, management, financial position,
shareholders' equity or results of operations of the Company and its
subsidiaries, otherwise than as set forth or contemplated in the Prospectus, the
effect of which, in your judgment, is material and adverse to the Company and
makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or the
delivery of the Shares being delivered at the Closing Date or the Option Closing
Date, as the case may be, on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the
Prospectus.

         (g) The Representatives shall have received on the Closing Date or the
Option Closing Date, as the case may be, a certificate or certificates of the
chief executive officer and the chief financial officer of the Company to the
effect that, as of the Closing Date or the Option Closing Date, as the case may
be, each of them severally represents as follows:

                (i) The Prospectus was filed with the Commission pursuant to
Rule 424(b) within the applicable period prescribed for such filing by the
Regulations and in accordance with Section 5(a) of this Agreement; no stop order
suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued, and
no proceedings for such purpose have been initiated or are, to such officer's
knowledge, threatened by the Commission.

                (ii) The representations and warranties of the Company set forth
in Section 1 of this Agreement are true and correct at and as of the Closing
Date or the Option Closing Date, as the case may be, and the Company has
performed all of its obligations under this Agreement to be performed at or
prior to the Closing Date or the Option Closing Date, as the case may be.

         (h) The Representatives shall have received on the Closing Date or the
Option Closing Date, as the case may be, a certificate of the Selling
Shareholders pursuant to which the Selling Shareholders certify that their
representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement are true and correct
at and as of the Closing Date or the Option Closing Date, as the case may be,
and that they have performed all of their obligations under this Agreement to be
performed at or prior to the Closing Date or the Option Closing Date, as the
case may be.



                                       16

<PAGE>   17

                (i) The Company and the Selling Shareholders shall have
furnished to the Representatives such further certificates and documents as the
Representatives may reasonably have requested.

                (j) The Lock-Up Agreements shall have been delivered to the
Representatives prior to the date hereof and are, as of the Closing Date or the
Option Closing Date, as the case may be, in full force and effect.

         The opinions and certificates mentioned in this Agreement shall be
deemed to be in compliance with the provisions hereof only if they are in all
material respects reasonably satisfactory to the Representatives and to Dorsey &
Whitney LLP, counsel for the Underwriters.

         If any of the conditions hereinabove provided for in this Section 7
shall not have been fulfilled when and as required by this Agreement to be
fulfilled, the obligations of the Underwriters hereunder may be terminated by
the Representatives by notifying the Company of such termination in writing or
by telegram at or prior to the Closing Date or the Option Closing Date, as the
case may be. In such event, the Company and the Underwriters shall not be under
any obligation to each other (except to the extent provided in Sections 6 and 8
hereof).

         8.       Indemnification.

                  (a) The Company and the Selling Shareholders jointly and
severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, each officer
and director thereof, and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter
within the meaning of the Act, against any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such
action or claim) to which such Underwriter or such persons may became subject
under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are
based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material
fact contained in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus or the
Prospectus, including any amendments or supplements thereto, or (ii) the
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in
light of the circumstances under which they were made, or (iii) any act or
failure to act or any alleged act or failure to act by any Underwriter in

contemplated hereby, and which is included as part of or referred to in any
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect
thereof) arising out of or based upon matters covered by clause (i) or (ii)
above, and will reimburse each Underwriter and each such officer, director and
controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such
Underwriter or such officer, director or controlling person in connection with
investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are
incurred; provided, however, that the Company and the Selling Shareholders shall
not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage
or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement, or omission or alleged omission, made in the Registration
Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, including any
amendments or supplements thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter through the
Representatives specifically for use therein; provided further, that the Company
and the Selling Shareholders shall not be liable in any such case to the extent
that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission,
made in a Preliminary Prospectus, if a copy of the Prospectus (as then amended
or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or
supplements thereto) was not sent or given by or on behalf of the Underwriters
to the person asserting such loss, claim, damage or liability, if required by
law so to have been delivered, at or prior to the written confirmation of the
sale of Shares to such person, and if the Prospectus (as amended or
supplemented) would have cured the defect giving rise to such loss, claim,
damage or liability, unless the failure to so deliver the Prospectus (as amended
or supplemented) is the result of noncompliance by the Company with the first
sentence of paragraph 5(d) of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the provisions of
this Section 8(a), any liability of the Selling Shareholders under this Section
8(a) shall be limited to the amount of the proceeds received by the Selling
Shareholders.

                  (b) Each Underwriter agrees severally and not jointly to
indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its
officers who have signed the Registration Statement, the Selling Shareholders
and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act,
against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company or any
such director, officer, Selling Shareholder or controlling





                                       17

<PAGE>   18

person may become subject under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof)
arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary
Prospectus, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out
of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the
Company or any such director, officer, Selling Shareholder or controlling person
in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such
expenses are incurred; provided, however, that each Underwriter will be liable
in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission has been made in the
Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any such
amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter through the
Representatives specifically for use therein.

                  (c) In case any proceeding (including any governmental
investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which
indemnity or contribution may be sought pursuant to this Section 8, such person
(the "indemnified party") shall promptly notify the person against whom such
indemnity may be sought (the "indemnifying party") in writing. No
indemnification provided for in Section 8(a) or (b) or contribution provided for
in Section 8(d) shall be available with respect to a proceeding to any party who
shall fail to give notice of such proceeding as provided in this Section 8(c) if
the party to whom notice was not given was unaware of the proceeding to which
such notice would have related and was prejudiced by the failure to give such
notice, but the failure to give such notice shall not relieve the indemnifying
party or parties from any liability which it or they may have to the indemnified
party otherwise than on account of the provisions of Section 8(a) or (b). In
case any such proceeding shall be brought against any indemnified party and it
shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the
indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent
that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly
notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to
such indemnified party and shall pay as incurred the fees and disbursements of
such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified
party shall have the right to retain its own counsel at its own expense.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnifying party shall pay promptly as
incurred the reasonable fees and expenses of the counsel retained by the
indemnified party in the event (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified
party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the
named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include
both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and the indemnified party
shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict between the
positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in conducting the
defense of any such action or that there may be legal defenses available to it
or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those
available to the indemnifying party. It is understood that the indemnifying
party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the
same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate
firm at any time for all such indemnified parties. Such firm shall be designated
in writing by the Representatives and shall be reasonably satisfactory to the
Company in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 8(a) and shall be
designated in writing by the Company and shall be reasonably satisfactory to the
Representatives in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 8(b). The
indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding
effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if
there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to
indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason
of such settlement or judgment.

                  (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is
unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section
8(a), or (b) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or
actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each
indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or
actions or proceedings in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate
to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Selling
Shareholders on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering
of the Shares. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding
sentence is not permitted by applicable law, then each indemnifying party shall
contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also
the relative fault of the Company and the Selling Shareholders on the one hand
and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions
which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or
proceedings in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative benefits received




                                       18
<PAGE>   19

by the Company and the Selling Shareholders on the one hand and the Underwriters
on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net
proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company
and the Selling Shareholders bear to the total underwriting discounts and
commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table
on the cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault shall be determined by
reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement
of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact
relates to information supplied by the Company and the Selling Shareholders on
the one hand or the Underwriters on the other and the parties' relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission. The Company, the Selling Shareholders and the
Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions
pursuant to this Section 8(d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if
the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other
method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations
referred to above in this Section 8(d). The amount paid or payable by an
indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or
actions or proceedings in respect thereto) referred to above in this Section
8(d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred
by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such
action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(d), no
Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the
underwriting discounts and commissions applicable to the Shares purchased by
such Underwriter, the Selling Shareholders shall not be required to contribute
any amount in excess of the proceeds received by the Selling Shareholders, and
no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters' obligations in
this Section 8(d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective
underwriting obligations and not joint.

                  (e) The obligations of the Company and the Selling
Shareholders under this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability which
the Company and the Selling Shareholders may otherwise have, and the obligations
of the Underwriters under this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability
which the Underwriters may otherwise have.

         9. Default by Underwriters. If on the Closing Date or the Option
Closing Date, as the case may be, any Underwriter shall fail to purchase and pay
for the portion of the Shares which such Underwriter has agreed to purchase and
pay for on such date (otherwise than by reason of any default on the part of the
Company or a Selling Shareholder), you, as Representatives of the Underwriters,
shall use your best efforts to procure within 36 hours thereafter one or more of
the other Underwriters, or any others, to purchase from the Company and the
Selling Shareholders such amounts as may be agreed upon, and upon the terms set
forth herein, of the Firm Shares or Option Shares, as the case may be, which the
defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters failed to purchase. If the aggregate
number of Shares that the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed to
purchase shall not be purchased in accordance with the preceding sentence, the
Company shall have the right, within 36 hours next succeeding the 36-hour period
above referred to, to make arrangements with other underwriters or purchasers
satisfactory to you for purchase of such remaining Shares on the terms herein
set forth. If during such two 36-hour periods you, as Representatives, and the
Company shall not have procured such other Underwriters, or any others, to
purchase the Firm Shares or Option Shares, as the case may be, agreed to be
purchased by the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters, then (a) if the
aggregate number of Shares with respect to which such default shall occur does
not exceed 10% of the Firm Shares or Option Shares, as the case may be, covered
hereby, the other Underwriters shall be obligated, severally, in proportion to
the respective numbers of Firm Shares or Option Shares, as the case may be,
which they are obligated to purchase hereunder, to purchase the Firm Shares or
Option Shares, as the case may be, which such defaulting Underwriter or
Underwriters failed to purchase, or (b) if the aggregate number of shares of
Firm Shares or Option Shares, as the case may be, with respect to which such
default shall occur exceeds 10% of the Firm Shares or Option Shares, as the case
may be, covered hereby, the Company and the Selling Shareholders or you as the
Representatives of the Underwriters will have the right, by written notice given
within the next 36-hour period to the parties to this Agreement, to terminate
this Agreement without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Underwriters
or of the Company and the Selling Shareholders except for expenses to be borne
by the Company, the Selling Shareholders and the Underwriters as provided in
Section 6 hereof and the indemnity and contribution agreements in Section 8
hereof. In the event of a default by any Underwriter or Underwriters, as set
forth in this Section 9 (and assuming that this Agreement is not terminated
pursuant to the immediately preceding sentences), the Closing Date or Option
Closing Date, as the case may be, may be postponed for such period, not
exceeding seven days, as you, as Representatives, may determine in order that
the required changes in the Registration Statement or in the Prospectus or in
any other documents or arrangements may be




                                       19
<PAGE>   20

effected. The term "Underwriter" includes any person substituted for a
defaulting Underwriter. Any action taken under this Section 9 shall not relieve
any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such
Underwriter under this Agreement.

         10. Notices. All communications hereunder shall be in writing and,
except as otherwise provided herein, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed
and confirmed as follows: if to the Underwriters, to Dain Rauscher Wessels, Dain
Bosworth Plaza, 60 South Sixth Street, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55402, Attention:

         11. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated by you by notice to
the Company and the Selling Shareholders as follows:

             (a) at any time prior to the Closing Date if any of the following
has occurred: (i) since the respective dates as of which information is given in
the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, any material adverse change in or
affecting the condition, financial or otherwise, of the Company and its
subsidiaries taken as a whole or the business affairs, management, financial
position, shareholders' equity or results of operations of the Company and its
subsidiaries taken as a whole, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of
business, (ii) any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or declaration of war
or national emergency after the date hereof or other national or international
calamity or crisis or change in economic or political conditions if the effect
of such outbreak, escalation, declaration, emergency, calamity, crisis or change
on the financial markets of the United States would, in your judgment, make the
offering or delivery of the Shares impracticable or inadvisable, (iii)
suspension of trading in securities on the New York Stock Exchange or the
American Stock Exchange or limitation on prices (other than limitations on hours
or numbers of days of trading) for securities on either such Exchange, or a halt
or suspension of trading in securities generally which are quoted on The Nasdaq
National Market System or The Nasdaq SmallCap Market, or (iv) declaration of a
banking moratorium by either federal or New York State authorities; or

             (b) as provided in Sections 7 and 9 of this Agreement.

         This Agreement also may be terminated by you, by notice to the Company,
as to any obligation of the Underwriters to purchase the Option Shares, upon the
occurrence at any time prior to the Option Closing Date of any of the events
described in subparagraph (a) above or as provided in Sections 7 and 9 of this
Agreement.

         12. Written Information. For all purposes under this Agreement
(including, without limitation, Section 1, Section 2, Section 3 and Section 8
hereof), the Company and the Selling Shareholders understand and agree with each
of the Underwriters that the following constitutes the only written information
furnished to the Company by or through the Representatives specifically for use
in preparation of the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the
Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto: (i) the per share "Public
offering price" and per share "Underwriting discounts and commissions" set forth
on the cover page of the Prospectus, and (ii) the information set forth under
the caption "Underwriting" in the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus.

         13. Successors. This Agreement has been and is made solely for the
benefit of and shall be binding upon the Underwriters, the Company, the Selling
Shareholders and their respective successors, executors, administrators, heirs
and assigns, and the officers, directors and controlling persons referred to
herein, and no other person will have any right or obligation hereunder. The
term "successors" shall not include any purchaser of the Shares merely because
of such purchase.

         14. Miscellaneous. The reimbursement, indemnification and contribution
agreements contained in this Agreement and the representations, warranties and
covenants in this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of
(a) any termination of this Agreement, (b) any investigation made by or on
behalf of any Underwriter or controlling person thereof, or by or on behalf of
the Company or its directors or officers or the Selling Shareholders and (c)
delivery of and payment for the Shares under this Agreement.

extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability in such jurisdiction

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     In connection with the proposed registration under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, of 4,600,000 shares of Common Stock of IntraNet Solutions,
Inc., a Minnesota corporation (the "Company"), we have examined such corporate
records and other documents, including the Registration Statement on Form S-3
relating to such shares (the "Registration Statement"), and have reviewed such
matters of law as we have deemed necessary for this opinion, and we advise you
that in our opinion:

     1.   The Company is a corporation duly organized and existing under the
          laws of the State of Minnesota.

     2.   When the Board of Directors of the Company or a duly authorized
          committee of the Board determines the price and terms of the shares
          of Common Stock to be sold by the Company, all necessary corporate
          action on the part of the Company will have been taken to authorize
          the issuance and sale of such shares of Common Stock by the Company,
          and, when issued and sold as contemplated in the Registration
          Statement, such shares will be legally and validly issued and fully
          paid and nonassessable.

     We consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement and to the use of our name under the heading "Legal Matters" in the
Prospectus constituting a part of the Registration Statement and to the
reference to our firm wherever appearing therein.

                                        Very truly yours,
