                            BROADWAY & SEYMOUR, INC.
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)


NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

     The consolidated financial statements of the Company include all
adjustments of a normal recurring nature which, in the opinion of management,
are necessary for a fair presentation of financial position as of September 30,
1996 and results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods
presented.  The results of operations for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected
for the entire year.

     Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted.  These consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 1995 as reported
by the Company in its Annual Report on Form 10-K.

     Management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reported period.  Actual results could differ
from those estimates.  The more significant estimates affecting the Company's
financial statements relate to revenue recognition and loss accruals for
long-term contracts, allowance for uncollectible receivables and useful lives
used in depreciating property and equipment and amortizing capitalized software
products and intangible assets.

     Effective January 1, 1996, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 121 ("SFAS 121"), "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-lived assets and for Long-lived Assets to be Disposed of."  This statement
addresses the accounting for the impairment, if any, of the Company's
long-lived assets, identifiable intangibles and goodwill relating to those
assets.  SFAS 121 requires that the Company review such assets for impairment
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount
of the asset may not be recoverable.  In such instances, the Company will
perform a test of impairment which compares the carrying amount of the asset
with the estimated undiscounted future cash flows to be generated from use of
the asset, including its ultimate disposition.  If the estimated future cash
flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset, the asset is considered
to be impaired and the carrying amount of the asset will be reduced to its fair
value through the recognition of an impairment loss.  The asset, at its new
carrying value, will be depreciated or amortized over its remaining useful
life.  Adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the
consolidated financial statements of the Company.

     Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with current
year presentation.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS:

     During the second half of 1995, the Company implemented a new operating
model called Futures '96 and refocused its strategic direction on core
operations and internal product development rather than growth through product
acquisitions.  As a part of its focus on core operations, the Company initiated
a plan to sell or discontinue certain non-strategic business units.

     On May 15, 1996, the Company  sold substantially all the assets, subject
to certain related liabilities, of its asset management business, including the
Company's AMtrust and TrustProcessor software products, to Fidelity Investments
Institutional Services Company, Inc. ("Fidelity"), pursuant to an Asset
Purchase Agreement.  In connection therewith,  the Company and Fidelity entered
into various ancillary agreements which relate to the Company licensing to
Fidelity certain other software, the Company providing to Fidelity certain
software maintenance and transition services and Fidelity contracting with the
Company for certain minimum systems integration work in the twenty-four months
following the closing.  The aggregate consideration to be paid to the Company
in connection with these transactions is approximately $29.0 million, of which
approximately $23.5 million was paid at closing for the net assets and
licensing of certain software and approximately $5.5 million is scheduled to be
paid over the twenty-four months following the closing for certain software
maintenance, training, transition services and professional services.

     On September 1, 1995, the Company transferred a contract for services
provided to International Business Machines Corporation ("IBM") to another
services provider. Prior to transfer, services provided under this contract
contributed approximately $1.9 million of revenue and incurred costs of $1.6
million.

     On June 30, 1995, the Company transferred certain assets, subject to
certain related liabilities, of its community banking business, to a newly
formed subsidiary, Liberty Software, Inc. ("Liberty"), and simultaneously
therewith sold the common stock of Liberty to Jack Henry & Associates, Inc.
("Jack Henry").  In connection with the sale, the Company agreed to provide
certain services and license certain software to Liberty.  For the three month
and nine month periods ended September 30, 1995, Liberty contributed revenue of
$5.5 million and $14.1 million, respectively.  All of the $5.5 million of
revenue contributed in the third quarter of 1995 and $4.0 million of revenue
contributed in the first half of 1995 is software license revenue against which
the Company incurred no significant expense.  During the first six months of
1996, the Company recognized approximately $.5 million of revenue related to
the completion of support and maintenance services against which the Company
incurred no significant expense.

     Under the maintenance provisions of a Software License Agreement executed
with Medaphis Corporation ("Medaphis") on December 30, 1994, Medaphis paid $6.8
million to the Company.  The Company recognized $3.0 million and $3.8 million
received under this agreement as services revenue for the three months ended
March 31, 1995 and June 30, 1995, respectively.  The Company incurred no
significant expenses associated with such maintenance services.

     The Company capitalizes the costs of developing software to be sold or
leased, including costs of product enhancements that improve the marketability
of the original product or extend its life.  These costs are incurred after   
technological feasibility is established and prior to the availability of the 
software for general release.  During the three months ended September 30, 1996
and September 30, 1995, approximately $.5 million and $.2 million of software
development costs were capitalized, respectively, and during the nine months
ended September 30, 1996 and September 30, 1995, $1.1 million and $1.7 million
of software development costs were capitalized, respectively.  Software costs
in the accompanying balance sheet also include the cost of purchased software.
Software costs are generally amortized over the estimated economic lives of the
products, up to a maximum of six years.

     Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their
estimated useful lives ranging from 5 to 10 years.

NOTE 6 - DEBT:

     The Company's credit facility was repaid during the second quarter of 1996
and expired on May 31, 1996.  The Company is in negotiation for a bank line of
credit.

NOTE 7 - RESTRUCTURING CHARGES:

     During the fourth quarter of 1995, the Company recorded a restructuring
accrual of approximately $1.5 million that consisted of approximately $1.0
million for the consolidation of certain facilities expected to be subleased
and approximately $.5 million for employee severance costs.  During the first
quarter of 1996, the Company revised its estimate of the remaining costs to
complete the restructuring downward by $.2 million.  During the nine months
ended September 30, 1996, the Company utilized cash of approximately $.8
million to satisfy obligations related to these reserves.  The reserve balance
was approximately $.5 million at September 30, 1996.

     In August 1996,  the Company developed a plan to close National Pension
Alliance ("NPA"), a joint venture partnership of which Corbel/NPA, Inc.
("Corbel/NPA"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Corbel, is a 75% general partner.
Following a transition period for NPA customers, the operations of NPA will
cease.  For the quarter ended September 30, 1996 and 1995,  Corbel/NPA had
revenues of $.2 million and $.1 million, respectively, and a loss before
restructuring charges of $.7 million and $.7 million, respectively.   For the
nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, Corbel/NPA had revenues of $.4
million and $.7 million, respectively, and a loss before restructuring charges
of $1.9 million and $1.3 million, respectively.   In the third quarter of 1996,
the Company reserved approximately $2.4 million related to the exit costs of
NPA, including  $1.3 million for customer refunds and $1.1 million related to
asset write-offs,  terminations of  3 employees and other exit costs.  The
expense related to this reserve is reflected in the Company's statement of
operations as a restructuring and impairment charge.  The reserve balance was
approximately $2.0 million at September 30, 1996.


NOTE 8 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:

     On October 18, 1996, the Company signed a letter of intent to sell Corbel
& Co., a wholly owned subsidiary ("Corbel"),  subject to satisfactory
completion of due diligence, regulatory approval, board approval from both
companies and negotiation of a definitive stock purchase agreement.  Corbel's
revenues (excluding its subsidiary Corbel/NPA) for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 were $15.1 million, generating income before taxes of $2.5
million.  The sale is expected to be completed in November 1996.

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



OVERVIEW

     During the second half of 1995, the Company implemented a new operating
model called Futures '96.  As part of Futures '96, the Company made significant
changes in senior management, re-engineered its internal project management and
accounting processes and revamped its compensation program. Operations were
reorganized to integrate independent business units into a competency-based
matrix model with team delivery of both products and services which enables
employees at all skill levels to be rapidly deployed as required to meet client
needs and the Company's internal productivity goals.  The Company's strategic
direction was refocused on core operations and internal product development
rather than growth through product acquisitions.  As a part of its focus on
core operations, the Company initiated a plan to sell or discontiue certain
non-strategic business units.

     On October 18, 1996, the Company signed a letter of intent to sell Corbel
& Co., a wholly owned subsidiary ("Corbel"), subject to satisfactory
completion of due diligence, regulatory approval, board approval from both
companies and negotiation of a definitive stock purchase agreement.  Excluding
Corbel/NPA, as discussed below, Corbel's revenues for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 were $15.1 million, generating income before taxes of $2.5
million.

     In August 1996, the Company developed a plan to close National Pension
Alliance ("NPA"), a joint venture partnership of which Corbel/NPA, Inc.
("Corbel/NPA"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Corbel, is a 75% general partner.
Following a transition period for NPA customers, the operations of NPA will
cease.  For the quarter ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, Corbel/NPA had
revenues of $.2 million and $.1million, respectively, and a net loss before
taxes of $.7 million and $.7 million, respectively.   For the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 and 1995, Corbel/NPA had revenues of $.4 million and $.7
million, respectively, and a loss before restructuring charges of $1.9 million
and $1.3 million, respectively.   In the third quarter of 1996, the Company
reserved approximately $2.4 million related to the exit costs of NPA, including
$1.3 million for customer refunds and $1.1 million related to asset
write-offs,  terminations of 3 employees and other costs.  The expense related
to this reserve is reflected in the Company's statement of operations as a
restructuring and impairment charge.  The reserve balance was approximately
$2.0 million at September 30, 1996.

     On May 15, 1996, the Company sold substantially all the assets, subject
to certain related liabilities, of its asset management business, including the
Company's AMtrust and TrustProcessor software products, to Fidelity Investments
Institutional Services Company, Inc. ("Fidelity"), pursuant to an Asset
Purchase Agreement.  In connection therewith,  the Company and Fidelity entered
into various ancillary agreements which relate to the Company licensing to
Fidelity certain other software, the Company providing to Fidelity certain
software maintenance and transition services and Fidelity contracting with the
Company for certain minimum systems integration work in the twenty-four months
following the closing.  The aggregate consideration to be paid to the Company
in connection with these transactions is approximately $29.0 million, of which
approximately $23.5 million was paid at closing for the net assets and
licensing of certain software and approximately $5.5 million is scheduled to be
paid over the twenty-four months following the closing for certain software
maintenance, training, and transition services and professional services.   The
Company's asset management business contributed approximately $5.8 million and
$12.6 million of revenue for the year to date period ended on the date of sale
and the nine months ended September 30, 1995, respectively.  Losses before
income taxes from the asset management business were $2.8 million and $2.2
million for the year to date period ended on the date of sale and the nine
months ended September 30, 1995, respectively.  For the nine months ended
September 30, 1996, the gain on the sale of the business was $7.8 million.

     On September 1, 1995, the Company transferred a contract for services
provided to International Business Machines Corporation ("IBM") to another
services provider. Prior to transfer, services provided under this contract
contributed approximately $1.9 million of revenue and incurred costs of $1.6
million.

     On June 30, 1995, the Company transferred certain assets, subject to
certain related liabilities, of its community banking business, to a newly
formed subsidiary, Liberty Software, Inc. ("Liberty"), and simultaneously
therewith sold the common stock of Liberty to Jack Henry & Associates, Inc.
("Jack Henry").  In connection with the sale, the Company agreed to provide
certain services and license certain software to Liberty.  For the three month
and nine month periods ended September 30, 1995, Liberty contributed revenue of
$5.5 million and $19.6 million, respectively.  All of the $5.5 million of
revenue contributed in the third quarter of 1995 and $4.0 million of revenue
contributed in the first half of 1995 is software license revenue as part of
the sale to Jack Henry against which the Company incurred no significant
expense.  During the first six months of 1996, the Company recognized
approximately $.5 million of revenue related to the completion of support and
maintenance of software services against which the Company incurred no
significant expense.

     Under the maintenance provisions of a Software License Agreement executed
with Medaphis Corporation ("Medaphis"), on December 30, 1994, Medaphis paid
$6.8 million to the Company.  The Company recognized $3.0 million and $3.8
million received under this agreement as revenue for the three months ended
March 31, 1995 and June 30, 1995, respectively.  The Company incurred no
significant expenses associated with such maintenance services.

     Each of the comparative revenue and cost of revenue amounts discussed
below excludes the effect of non-recurring revenue and expenses associated with
Liberty and the IBM services contract that were sold during 1995.

     Services revenue decreased from $17.7 million to $14.0 million, or 21%, in
the third quarter of 1996 compared to the same period last year.  Services
revenue for the third quarter of 1995 includes $5.4 million of revenue
associated with the

Company's AMtrust product subsequently sold to Fidelity on May 15, 1996.
Excluding the effect of AMtrust's operations, services revenue increased $1.7
million, or 14%, in the third quarter of 1996 compared to the same period last
year.  This increase relates principally to $1.9 million of temporary
professional services provided to Fidelity.  Other significant changes include
$2.0 million in increased integration service revenue related to the Company's
Millennium, call center, VisualImpact and BANCStar products.  There was no
significant Millennium or VisualImpact related revenue in the third quarter of
1995.   Due to delays in completing necessary product modifications, revenue
from integration services related to the Company's Crisp product decreased
approximately $.7 million in the third quarter of 1996 as compared to the same
period of 1995.  In addition, lower pension document processing volumes at
Corbel and the sale of the Company's educational training group in the third
quarter of 1996 resulted in decreased revenue of $.5 million and $.4 million,
respectively.

     Product revenue decreased from $8.9 million to $5.4 million, or 39%, in
the third quarter of 1996 compared to the same period last year.  Software
license revenue in connection with sales of the Company's Elite legal product
suite decreased $3.0 million due to lower volume resulting from competitive
pressures in the marketplace.  The Company's product revenue related to its
banking products and third-party software and hardware sales decreased
approximately $1.0 million.  Also contributing to the decrease is a $1.0
million decrease in software license revenue due to the sale of the Company's
AMtrust product to Fidelity.  Offsetting these decreases is a $.4 million
increase in Corbel's software license revenue, a $.3 million increase in
Millennium hardware revenue and a $.5 million increase in hardware revenue
associated with the Company's Elite legal product suite.

     Cost of revenue related to services decreased $2.4 million, or 14%, in the
third quarter of 1996 to $14.8 million compared to $17.2 million in the third
quarter of 1995.  A $4.4 million decrease in salaries, contract labor and
other costs relates to the Company's AMtrust product that was sold to Fidelity
on May 15, 1996.  This decrease was offset, in part, by  $1.3 million of costs
of transition services billed to Fidelity in the third quarter of 1996.
Excluding costs related to AMtrust and the Fidelity transition services, cost
of revenue related to services increased $.9 million.  This increase
principally relates to a $1.1 million increase in cost of services at Elite,
due primarily to increased contract-specific installation and implementation
requirements.

     Cost of revenue related to products increased 16%, or $.4 million, to $2.9
million in the third quarter of 1996 compared to $2.5 million in the same
period last year.  This increase is primarily due to a $1.0 million increase in
costs  related to third party hardware.  This increase was offset by a $.2
million decrease due to the sale of  the AMtrust product to Fidelity on May 15,
1996, a $.2 million decrease in amortization as a result of the write-down of
certain software in December 1995 and a $.2 million decrease in purchased
software costs related to a call center project.

     Research and development expenses decreased slightly when comparing the
third quarter of 1996 with the same period in the prior year.  Research and
development expenses in the third quarter of 1996 and 1995 were net of $.5
million and $.2 million of capitalized software development costs,
respectively.  Including capitalized costs, research and development
expenditures were $1.9 million in the third quarter of 1996 compared to $2.1
million in the third quarter of 1995.  Research and development expenditures
were attributable to development and enhancement of Millennium, CRISP, Elite,
Quantech, AutoDoc, NPA, VisualImpact and BANCStar software.  Research and
development costs capitalized in the third quarter of 1996 related to
development and enhancement of Millennium, Quantech and Elite software.

     Sales and marketing expenses decreased $.9 million to $2.5 million in the
third quarter of 1996 from $3.4 million in 1995.  Of this decrease, $.7
million is due to the sale of the asset management business to Fidelity in May
1996 and the remainder of the decrease is due principally to lower payroll and
commissions that resulted from lower sales of the Company's Elite legal product
suite.

     General and administrative expenses decreased to $2.4 million in the third
quarter of 1996 from $3.1 million in the same period last year.  This decrease
is principally due to a $.3 million decline in professional fees.

</TABLE>          



     Each of the comparative revenue and cost of revenue amounts discussed
below excludes the effect of non-recurring revenue and expenses associated with
Liberty and the IBM services contract which were sold during 1995.

     Services revenue decreased from $52.9 million to $45.9 million, or 13%, in
the nine months ended September 30, 1996 compared to the same period last year.
Services revenue for the 1995 nine months period includes $6.8 million of
non-recurring software maintenance revenue related to a 1994 contract with
Medaphis Corporation.  The Company incurred no significant expenses associated
with such maintenance services.  Excluding the effect of AMtrust's operations
and the Medaphis contract, services revenue increased $5.4 million, or 13%, in
the nine months ended September 30, 1996 compared to the same period last year.
Services revenue related to certain of the Company's products, including
VisualImpact, BANCStar, Millennium and call center, contributed approximately
$5.3 million of the increase.  Approximately $1.6 million of the increase is
due to revenue from temporary services provided to Fidelity as part of the sale
on May 15, 1996.  Approximately $1.2 million of the increase is related to the
acquisition of The MiniComputer Company of Maryland, Inc. ("TMC") in June 1995.
Also contributing to the increase in service revenue is $1.3 million of
incremental software maintenance revenue from the Company's Elite legal product
suite, related to an increase in client installations, and $.8 million of the
increase is due to services revenue from transitional services related to the
Fidelity transaction.  Corbel's services revenue declined $2.1 million due to
increased revenue in the first nine months of 1995 related to a first quarter
1995 legal deadline for restatement of certain pension plan documents.  Due to
necessary product modifications, revenue from systems integration services
related to the Company's Crisp product decreased approximately 


                                     - 12 -

<PAGE>   13


$1.4 million for the nine months ended 1996 as compared to the same period of
1995.  The educational training group contributed approximately  $.9 million of
the decrease in services revenue.  The educational group was sold during the
third quarter of 1996.

     Product revenue decreased $1.6 million, or 7%, during the nine months
ended September 30, 1996 compared to the same period last year.  During the
first quarter of 1996, the Company recorded software license revenue of $4.0
million in connection with a single contract against which the Company recorded
substantially no associated expense.  During the  first nine months of 1996,
the Company recorded $4.0 million in product revenue from a software license
agreement with Fidelity for Corbel's Quantech pension administration software,
against which the Company recorded substantially no expense.  The Company had a
$5.4 million decrease in product revenue in connection with decreased
installations of the Elite legal product suite.  Excluding the $4.0 million
software license contract, the Company's product revenue related to its banking
products and third-party software and hardware sales, decreased approximately
$4.8 million, offset by $1.5 million in product revenue related to the
Company's Millennium product.  Excluding the $4.0 million in product revenue
from the Fidelity contract for Quantech, Corbel's product revenue declined $.5
million due to a decline in new product sales and conversions.

     Cost of  revenue related to services decreased $.7 million to $46.9
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, compared to $47.6 million
for the same period in 1995.  A decrease of  $4.1 million in cost of services
revenue was due to the sale of  the AMtrust product to Fidelity in May 1996 and
a $.8 million decrease in costs of services at Corbel, related principally to a
first quarter 1995 legal deadline for restatement of certain pension plan
documents, which increased revenue and expenses in that period.  These
decreases were offset, in part, by $1.2 million of incremental cost of services
related to TMC, acquired in June 1995.   Also, a $3.2 million increase in
contract labor and payroll costs is attributable to  the Company's Elite legal
product suite.  This increase was due to more contract-specific installation
and implementation requirements as well as incremental costs associated with
increased staffing levels.

     Overall, cost of revenue related to products remained relatively flat,
decreasing $.1 million to $7.8 million, or 37% of product revenue, in the nine
months ended  September 30, 1996 compared to $7.9 million, or  33% of product
revenue for the same period last year.  Software license cost of revenue
decreased  $.8 million, offset by a $.7 million increase in hardware and other
cost of revenue in thenine months ended September 30, 1996 compared to 1995.

     Software license costs increased $.5 million as a result of third party
software purchased for a Millennium project.  This increase in software
license costs was offset by a $.5 million decrease in amortization of developed
software, principally due to the write-down of certain software in December
1995, and a $.7 million decrease in developed software royalties at Elite as a
result of decreased sales.

     The $.7 million increase in hardware and other cost of revenue is due to
increased volume of hardware installations for the Company's Elite legal
product suite, representing a $1 million increase in hardware costs from 1995
to 1996, a $1 million decrease in third party hardware costs related to call
center projects and a $.7 million increase in hardware costs related to
VisualImpact projects.

     Research and development expenses for the 1996 and 1995 nine month periods
were net of $1.1 million and $1.7 million of capitalized software development
costs, respectively.  Including capitalized costs, research and development
expenditures increased to $6 million for the nine months ended September 30,
1996  compared to $5.8 million for the same period in 1995.  Research and
development expenditures were attributable to development  and enhancement of
Millennium, CRISP, Elite, Quantech, AutoDoc, NPA, VisualImpact and BANCStar
software.  Research and development costs capitalized in 1996 related to
development and enhancement of Millennium, Quantech and Elite software.

     Sales and marketing expenses for the nine month period ended September 30,
1996 decreased  $1.1 million from $10.1 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1995 to $9 million for the same period in the current year.  Of
this decrease, $.2 million is due to the sale of the Company's AMtrust product
in May 1996.  Additionally, sales and marketing expenses at Elite decreased $.8
million, principally due to lower payroll and commission costs caused by lower
product sales.

     General and administrative expenses for the nine month period decreased
2.9% to $7.5 million for 1996 from $7.7 million in 1995, due principally to
decreased professional fees in the period.

     Restructuring and impairment charges for the nine months ended September
30, 1996 include a $2.4 million charge related to the Company's planned
shut-down of NPA described above.  Further, during the fourth quarter of 1995,
the


                                     - 13 -

<PAGE>   14


Company had recorded a restructuring accrual of approximately $1.5 million that
consisted of approximately $1.0 million for consolidation of certain facilities
expected to be subleased and approximately $.5 million for employee severance
costs.  During the first quarter of 1996, the Company revised its estimate of
the remaining costs to complete the restructuring downward by $.2 million.  In
1996, the Company utilized cash of approximately $.9 million to satisfy
obligations related to the 1995 restructuring reserve.  The 1995 restructuring
reserve balance was approximately $.5 million at September 30, 1996.

     Income for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 includes a $7.8
million gain, principally from the sale of the Company's asset management
business to Fidelity.


INCOME TAXES

The Company's effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 1996
and 1995 was 28.8% and 46%, respectively.  The 1996 effective rate reflects the
difference between book and tax basis for the net assets sold as part of the
Fidelity transaction and other differences between book and taxable income.



LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     On September 30, 1996 the Company had cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $2.6 million and working capital of approximately $4.1 million.
The Company currently has invested available cash in various overnight deposits
earning between 5% and 5.5% per annum in interest.

     As part of Futures '96, the Company focused on core operations and
evaluatee opportunities for divesting non-strategic lines of business.   On
October 18, 1996, the Company announced that it had signed a letter of intent
to sell Corbel & Co., a wholly owned subsidiary, subject to satisfactory
completion of due diligence, regulatory approval, board approval from both
companies and negotiation of a definitive stock purchase agreement.  Proceeds
from the sale of this subsidiary or other sources of capital will be necessary
to fund future growth and working capital requirements.

     The Company used a portion of the proceeds from the Fidelity transaction
to pay off its revolving credit facility, which expired in May 1996, and
certain other debt.  The Company has reviewed its liquidity and capital
requirements for the remainder of 1996 and the near term and is in negotiation
for  a bank line of credit.

     The Company believes that the remaining proceeds from the Fidelity
transaction, cash flow from operations and the issuance of stock pursuant to
its employee stock purchase and stock option plans, combined with proceeds from
the sale of Corbel and/or a line of credit will be sufficient to fund its
working capital requirements through 1996 and the near term.

OTHER

     The Company's revenue derives primarily from the performance of consulting
services related to information technology solutions and the sale of related
products under specific engagements with its customers.  In addition, the
Company's historic, acquisition-oriented growth strategy broadened its product
and service offerings and enabled the Company to successfully compete for
large-scale projects.  However, such projects have typically had a longer sales
cycle and inherent volatility in the rate that revenue and related cost was
generated and recognized which has produced significant variations in quarterly
and annual results.

     The Company continually monitors conditions that may affect the carrying
value of its software costs and intangible assets.  Under the principles of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86 ("SFAS 86"), "Accounting for
the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed" and,
effective January 1, 1996, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121
("SFAS 121"), "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-

lived Assets and Long-lived Assets to be Disposed Of", the Company records
impairment losses and/or accelerated amortization of software costs and
intangible assets when analysis indicates that an asset is not recoverable.  The
Company operates in markets characterized by innovation and rapid technological
advances and no assurance can be given that future changes in the marketplace
would not impair the value of the Company's software costs and other intangible
assets.

                  [LETTERHEAD OF SUNGARD DATA SYSTEMS INC.]



                               LETTER OF INTENT


October 17, 1996

Mr. David A. Finley
Broadway & Seymour, Inc.
128 South Tryon Street
Charlotte, NC 28202

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter of intent summarizes our discussions and represents our
mutual intent to pursue the proposed acquisition of the outstanding shares of
stock of Corbel & Co. ("Corbel") from Broadway & Seymour, Inc. ("BSI") by
SunGard Data Systems Inc. or its subsidiary ("SunGard"). Of course, a definitive
acquisition agreement ("Agreement"), which will contain many terms in addition
to those contained in this letter of intent, will have to be negotiated and
agreed upon by BSI and SunGard. Our discussions have been as follows:

1.     Transaction.  SunGard will acquire from BSI all of the issued and
outstanding shares of capital stock of Corbel free and clear of all liens,
claims and encumbrances. Promptly after this letter of intent is signed, the
parties will proceed with the necessary filings under the Hart-Scott-Rodino
Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 ("HSR Act").

2.     Purchase Price.  The total purchase price will consist of (a) a cash 
payment at closing in the amount of $14,250,000, which is subject to adjustment
and possible holdback as provided below, and (b) a contingent cash payment, of
up to a maximum amount of $3,500,000, equal to 1.15 times the amount by which
Corbel's revenues during the one-year period beginning January 1, 1997 exceed
$18,200,000.

3.     Restrictive Covenants.  BSI will be bound by appropriate nondisclosure
and noncompetition covenants. The noncompetition covenants, which will have a
term of five years after closing, will include prohibitions against the
solicitation of employees and customers. No additional consideration is being
paid for the noncompetition covenants.

4.     Certain Other Matters.

       (a) At or before closing, Corbel will transfer to BSI all of the issued
and outstanding shares of Corbel's wholly owned subsidiary, Corbel/NPA, Inc.,
which is the general partner of National Pension Alliance, a Florida limited
partnership (such subsidiary and partnership

are referred to together as "NPA"). NPA's business will be discontinued at
BSI's expense and under BSI's control in accordance with a reasonable plan
developed by BSI and Corbel and reasonably acceptable to SunGard. At closing,
BSI and Corbel will enter into an agreement under which (a) Corbel will
cooperate with BSI in implementing such plan (which may include, without
limitation, refunding license fees at BSI's expense and/or offering discounts
to NPA customers on Corbel software at no charge to BSI), (b) BSI will pay
Corbel for all employees, facilities, services and similar items provided by
Corbel to NPA or in connection with NPA's business or the discontinuance
thereof, and (c) BSI will reimburse Corbel for the cost of leased space used by
NPA's business (as of this date unless the space is reconfigured as provided
below) until Corbel can use the space or until the lease expires net of any
sublease revenues, provided that Corbel shall use reasonable efforts to
reconfigure the space so that the NPA space can be subleased.

       (b) At or before closing, BSI and Corbel will enter into an agreement
under which Corbel agrees to comply with the requirements of Section 7.13 of
the Guarantee and Indemnity Agreement dated as of April 10, 1996 between BSI 
and Fidelity Investments Institutional Services, Inc. ("FIIS"), as amended by
Amendment No. 1 thereto dated as of May 15, 1996. Corbel will assign to BSI the
$1,000,000 payment due to Corbel from FIIS.

5.     Closing.  The parties will use reasonable efforts to close the proposed
transaction by November 30, 1996. Closing will take place at a mutually
agreeable time and location. The effective date of the acquisition ("Effective
Date") will be the calendar month-end closest to the date of closing or another
mutually agreeable date. The Agreement, which must be acceptable to BSI and
SunGard, will contain detailed representations, warranties, indemnifications
and other terms appropriate for a transaction of the size and complexity of the
proposed transaction. A mutually agreeable portion of the cash payment due at
closing may be held back for a mutually agreed period of time to cover
potential indemnification obligations. SunGard has already reviewed a BSI
prepared draft of a definitive agreement, provided BSI with a proposed redraft
thereof and discussed areas of disagreement.

6.     Financial Statements.  In the Agreement, BSI will represent its 1995
audited financial statements and both its and Corbel's unaudited financial
statements as of September 30, 1996 and for the nine-month period then ending.
As soon as possible after closing, BSI will provide to SunGard a balance sheet
of Corbel as of the Effective Date and a statement of earnings of Corbel for
the period from January 1, 1996 to the Effective Date, certified by BSI's chief
financial officer.

7.     Potential TNW Adjustment.  The purchase price shall be increased or
decreased by the amount by which Corbel's tangible net worth as of the
Effective Date is greater than or

less than $975,000. For this purpose, all impact of NPA and its business shall
be excluded from Corbel's tangible net worth.

8.     SunGard's Conditions.  BSI acknowledges that SunGard's interest in the
proposed transaction is based, in part, upon the business, product and
financial information that BSI has furnished as well as certain assumptions
that SunGard has made regarding Corbel and the proposed transaction.
Accordingly, SunGard's interest in the proposed transaction is subject to the
following conditions:

       a.     Due Diligence.  SunGard must complete a thorough "due diligence"
review of Corbel, and SunGard must determine that there are no material
inaccuracies in the business and financial information that BSI has furnished
or in the assumptions SunGard has made regarding Corbel's business and the
financial, tax and accounting treatment of the proposed transaction. BSI will
make available to SunGard all of Corbel's contracts, leases, insurance
policies, tax returns, customer, prospect and other business files, books and
records, software documentation and other materials and information reasonably
requested. BSI also will furnish SunGard with Corbel's historical and interim
financial statements and such other financial information as SunGard reasonably
may request in order to complete its due diligence.

       b.     Board Approval.  The Board of Directors of SunGard Data Systems
Inc. must approve the transaction and the Agreement.

       c.     HSR.  All applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act must expire
or terminate.

9.     BSI's Conditions.  BSI's interest in the proposed transaction is subject
to the following conditions:

       a.     Board Approval.  The Board of Directors of BSI must approve the
transaction and the Agreement.

       b.     HSR.  All applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act must expire
or terminate.

10.    BSI's Interim Obligations.  BSI acknowledges that SunGard will incur
expenses in connection with the proposed transaction, including the costs of
conducting its due diligence review and drafting the acquisition documents. In
consideration of SunGard's incurring these

Mr. David A. Finley
October 17, 1996
Page -4-

expenses, between the date of this letter of intent and the Termination Date
(as defined in paragraph 13):

       a.     No Other Discussions.  BSI will not discuss, negotiate or
consummate with anyone any transaction involving the issuance, redemption,
sale, exchange or other disposition of any of the equity interest or other
securities of Corbel or the sale, exchange or other disposition of all or any
material assets of Corbel.

       b.     Business Operations.  BSI will cause Corbel to conduct its
business in a diligent manner, consistent with past practices, without making
any material change in its business operations and policies. Except in the
ordinary course of business consistent with past practices, Corbel will not
incur any material liability, create any material encumbrance upon any of its
assets, loan any material amount of money to anyone, make or commit for any
material capital expenditure, enter into any material contract, or increase or
authorize an increase in any employee compensation or benefits. Even in the
ordinary course of business consistent with past practices, Corbel will not make
or commit for any capital expenditure greater than $100,000 without first
consulting with SunGard.

11.    Expenses.  BSI and SunGard will be responsible for all expenses each
respectively incurs in connection with the proposed transaction, whether or not
the transaction is completed.

12.    Confidentiality and Publicity.  SunGard shall continue to be bound by the
terms of the confidentiality letter agreement previously signed with BSI. Other
than as may be required by law, in which case the other party will be
consulted, neither party will make any public announcement regarding the
proposed transaction without the other party's written approval.

13.    Termination.  If the Agreement has not been signed by November 30, 1996,
or if SunGard earlier decides not to pursue the proposed transaction, then this
letter of intent may be terminated by BSI or SunGard at any time thereafter by
giving written notice of termination to the other. The date of any such
termination is referred to above as the "Termination Date."

Although this letter of intent summarizes certain major terms of the proposed
transaction, until the Agreement is finalized and signed and the conditions
stated in paragraphs 8 and 9 are satisfied, the provisions of the first 7
paragraphs of this letter are not intended to be, and shall not be, legally
binding upon the parties, nor shall they constitute a contract between the
parties. The parties do not intend to be bound by the first 7 paragraphs of
this letter of intent until both agree to and sign the Agreement, and neither
party may reasonably rely upon any

promises inconsistent with this paragraph. This paragraph supersedes any other
conflicting provisions in this letter.

The provisions of paragraphs 8 and 13 of this letter of intent are intended to
be, and shall be, legally binding upon the parties, and shall constitute a
contract between the parties. This letter of intent shall be governed by
Pennsylvania law.

If this letter accurately reflects our discussions and is acceptable to you,
please sign the two original copies of this letter of intent where indicated
below and return one executed copy to me. We look forward to working with you.


Sincerely,

                 directors, or its subsidiaries or affiliated entities, or
                 their officers or directors, or in any way voluntarily
                 participate or cooperate in any such actions or proceedings,
                 except (a) as this waiver is prohibited by statute, (b) in
                 accordance with lawful process issued by a court of competent
                 jurisdiction or other lawful authority, and (c) upon request
                 of a governmental entity or agency.

Section 2.6      Agreement to Provide Litigation Assistance.  Neal agrees to
                 cooperate with and provide assistance to BSI and its legal
                 counsel in connection with any litigation (including
                 arbitration or administrative hearings) or investigation
                 affecting BSI, in which--in the reasonable judgment of BSI's
                 counsel--Neal's assistance or cooperation is needed.  Neal
                 shall, when requested by BSI, provide testimony or other
                 assistance and shall travel at BSI's request in order

                 to fulfill this obligation; provided, however, that, in
                 connection with such litigation or investigation after the
                 Retirement Date, BSI shall attempt to accommodate Neal's
                 schedule, shall provide him with reasonable notice in advance
                 of the times in which his cooperation or assistance is needed,
                 and shall reimburse Neal for any reasonable expenses incurred
                 in connection with such matters, as well as for any actual
                 lost wages suffered as a result from absence from employment.

Section 2.7      COBRA Continuation Coverage.  Neal acknowledges and agrees
                 that continuation coverage under 26 U.S.C. Section 4980B
                 ("COBRA") shall begin on the date hereof and that thereafter
                 Neal shall be eligible, upon his timely election and at his
                 own expense, to obtain health insurance coverage in accordance
                 with COBRA, provided, however, that BSI shall pay for Neal's
                 health insurance coverage under COBRA commencing on the
                 Effective Date through and including the Retirement Date.
                 Neal hereby acknowledges that he has received the information
                 and forms necessary to obtain such coverage.

Section 2.8      Acknowledgement Concerning Vacation Pay.  Neal agrees that he
                 shall waive all vacation time to which he is entitled under
                 BSI's policies through the Retirement Date such that Neal
                 agrees that, upon the Retirement Date and subject to receipt
                 of the payment set forth in Section 1.10 hereof, he shall not
                 have accrued any unused vacation time for which payment is due
                 from BSI.

Section 2.9      Acknowledgment Concerning All Compensation.  Neal agrees and
                 acknowledges that, except as provided in this Agreement, Neal
                 is not entitled to any compensation or employment benefits
                 whatsoever, including, but not limited to, any bonus,
                 severance pay, accrued vacation pay or other compensation
                 under any BSI incentive plan, employee benefit plan or
                 agreement.

Section 2.10     Binding Nature.  Neal's signature on this Agreement reflects
                 his willingness to enter into and abide by the terms of this
                 Agreement.  Neal acknowledges that he has been afforded an
                 opportunity to consider this Agreement and Neal further
                 acknowledges that he has been advised by BSI of his right to
                 consult with counsel concerning the effect of this Agreement,
                 and that he has carefully read the provisions of this
                 Agreement.  Neal further represents that he knows and
                 understands the contents of this Agreement, that he intends to
                 be legally bound by this Agreement, and the release contained
                 herein, and that he is signing this Agreement, including the
                 release, of his own free will and without coercion.

Section 2.11     Further Acknowledgments.  Neal acknowledges that:





                                      -6-
<PAGE>   7

                 (a)      he has received separate consideration under this
                          Agreement which is in addition to any other
                          compensation or other thing of value which Neal is
                          otherwise entitled to receive from BSI under any
                          agreement, Company policy or practice, or under
                          applicable law.

                 (b)      he was given a period of twenty-one (21) days within
                          which to consider the terms of this Agreement;

                 (c)      if he has executed this Agreement prior to the
                          expiration of such 21-day period, then he has done so
                          voluntarily and that he has waived the remainder of
                          such review period;

                 (d)      he will have a period of seven (7) days following the
                          execution of this Agreement in which to revoke this
                          Agreement by giving written notice to BSI's President
                          of such revocation; provided, however, that if Neal
                          revokes this Agreement within this revocation period,
                          Neal agrees and acknowledges that he will have no
                          right to receive the payments or benefits set forth
                          in paragraph 1 above; and

                 (e)      except as set forth in the immediately preceding
                          clause, this Agreement shall not become effective or
                          enforceable until the seven (7) day revocation period
                          described above has expired.

                 (f)      he acknowledges and agrees that Neal does not believe
                          that BSI has discriminated against him in any manner
                          because of his race, sex, creed, color, religion,
                          national origin, age, marital status, sexual
                          preference, physical or mental disabilities or status
                          as a disabled or Vietnam- era veteran.

Section 2.12     Non-Disclosure of Confidential Information.  Neal agrees that
                 he will maintain in confidence and will not, directly or
                 indirectly, use, publish or otherwise disclose to any
                 competitor or other third party, except as required by law,
                 any trade secrets, confidential, proprietary, and other
                 non-public information of a similar nature belonging to BSI or
                 any of its related or affiliated entities or to which BSI or
                 any of its related or affiliated entities has any rights,
                 except to the extent, if any, that any such information is or
                 becomes generally known or readily ascertainable by proper
                 means ("Confidential Information"), whether or not such
                 Confidential Information is in written or permanent form.
                 Such Confidential Information includes, but is not limited to,
                 proprietary technical and business information relating to any
                 non-public financial information, business plans or costs,
                 customers or customer lists, pricing data or other terms of
                 sales, customer requirements or buying history, customer

                 contacts or prospective customers, formulas, patterns,
                 compilations, programs, devices, methods, techniques and
                 processes of BSI, or any of its related or affiliated
                 entities, subject to the same exception stated in the
                 preceding sentence.  Neal's obligations under this Agreement
                 with respect to Confidential Information shall extend to
                 information belonging to any client, vendor or customer of
                 BSI, or any of its related or affiliated entities, and their
                 agents and employees.  Since BSI's business is national in
                 scope, there is no geographic limitation on Neal's obligations
                 under this section.  All duties and obligations set forth
                 herein shall be in addition to those which exist by common law
                 or statute.

Section 2.13     Return of Confidential Information.  Neal agrees that he shall
                 return to BSI any and all documents containing Confidential
                 Information, whether in hard copy or electronic form,
                 including any copies thereof, which are in his possession or
                 under his control as of the Retirement Date.

Section 2.14     Return of Property.  Neal agrees, upon the Retirement Date, to
                 the extent Neal has not done so previously, to immediately
                 return all documents, files, whether or not he was solely
                 responsible for same, keys, credit cards, keycards, programs,
                 software and discs, including, but not by way of limitation,
                 those programs, software and discs generated during his
                 employment with BSI, and all other items and equipment which
                 are the property of BSI.

Section 2.15     Noncompetition Clause.  For the period commencing on the
                 Effective Date and continuing until the date two years after
                 the Retirement Date, Neal agrees not to, directly or
                 indirectly:

                 (a)      solicit or attempt to solicit business from any
                          client or prospective client of BSI with whom Neal
                          has had direct or indirect association or otherwise
                          induce such clients or prospective clients to reduce,
                          terminate, restrict or otherwise alter their business
                          relationship with BSI in any fashion;

                 (b)      become associated either as an owner, principal,
                          agent, manager, employee, partner, shareholder
                          (except for ownership of less than five percent of
                          the shares of a publicly traded company), director,
                          officer, consultant, or representative with any
                          business operation or any enterprise if such
                          operation competes with BSI in applying computer
                          systems and services to business, industry and
                          government;

                 (c)      induce or attempt to induce any employee of BSI to
                          leave BSI for the purpose of engaging in a business
                          competitive with BSI;

<PAGE>   9


                 provided, however, that clauses (a) and (b) above shall not
                 restrict Neal from being employed by or associating or
                 affiliating with a venture capital investment firm that makes
                 investments in any enterprise that competes with BSI in
                 applying computer systems and services to business, industry
                 and government or provides services to or attempts to provide
                 services to clients or prospective clients of BSI which
                 activity has the result of causing such clients or prospective
                 clients to reduce, terminate, restrict or otherwise alter
                 their business relationship with BSI in any fashion so long as
                 Neal does not directly participate in the management of such
                 enterprise.


                                  ARTICLE III
                             ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS

Section 3.1      Confidentiality.  As an integral part of this Agreement, Neal
                 agrees that the terms of this Agreement and the circumstances
                 surrounding the execution of this Agreement shall be held
                 absolutely confidential and that he shall not disclose the
                 substance or terms of this Agreement to anyone other than his
                 immediate family, his tax adviser and his counsel.
                 Notwithstanding the above, Neal may answer truthfully any
                 inquiry about this Agreement which he is legally required to
                 answer whether by subpoena, court order or other lawful
                 process or as mutually agreed upon by the parties.  Neal will
                 directly and fully inform BSI, however, concerning any
                 disclosures requested under this Agreement, along with the
                 entity making such request for disclosure, at the time of the
                 disclosure, and Neal shall specifically inform BSI of any
                 subpoena or other process which may require him to disclose
                 any matters in contravention of this provision.

Section 3.2      Non-Disparagement.  Neal agrees that any time after the
                 execution of this Agreement and continuing after the
                 Retirement Date, he shall not in any way criticize or
                 disparage the performance, competency or ability of BSI or any
                 of its subsidiary or affiliated entities, or the officers,
                 directors, employees or agents of any of them to any other
                 person.  In particular,  Neal will not criticize or disparage
                 BSI's financial accounting or reporting policies or practices
                 nor allege or claim that he was discriminated against or
                 otherwise mistreated by BSI or any of its subsidiary or
                 affiliated entities at any time, except to the extent, if at
                 all, as may be required by legal process.  Neal understands
                 and agrees that any breach by him of this provision shall be a
                 material breach of this Agreement and that BSI, in addition
                 to, and without waiving any other remedy, including injunctive
                 relief, shall have the right immediately to terminate all
                 payments under paragraph 1 of this Agreement and to require
                 Neal to return all payments made pursuant to this Agreement to
                 BSI.

<PAGE>   10


Section 3.3      No Admission of Liability.  Neal understands and agrees that
                 the entry into this Agreement by BSI is solely for the purpose
                 of eliminating and resolving all matters arising out of Neal's
                 employment with BSI, effecting the termination of Neal's
                 employment, providing certain specified benefits for Neal,
                 memorializing the parties' agreement concerning Neal's
                 post-employment relationship with BSI, and finally, fully and
                 completely resolving amicably any and all matters actually or
                 potentially in controversy between them and shall not be
                 construed as an admission by BSI of non-compliance with any
                 law or any other wrongdoing whatsoever.

Section 3.4      Binding Effect.  This Agreement shall be binding upon, and
                 inure to the benefit of, the parties and their respective
                 personal representatives, agents, attorneys, executors,
                 administrators, heirs, successors and assigns.

Section 3.5      Modification.  This Agreement may not be modified or amended
                 except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties
                 hereto.

Section 3.6      Governing Law.  This Agreement has been executed and delivered
                 in the State of North Carolina, and its validity,
                 interpretation, performance and enforcement shall be governed
                 by the laws and judicial decisions of the State of North
                 Carolina.

Section 3.7      Entire Agreement.  This Agreement contains the entire
                 agreement between the parties hereto.  No representation,
                 agreement, guaranty, warranty, waiver or change in this
                 Agreement not included herein shall be binding upon either
                 party unless in writing and separately signed by both parties.

Section 3.8      Severability.  If any provision contained in this Agreement
                 shall for any reason be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable
                 in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or
                 unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this
                 Agreement, but this Agreement shall be construed as if such
                 invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been
                 contained herein.

Section 3.9      Consent to Jurisdiction.  Any action for breach of this
                 agreement shall be brought in the federal or state courts of
                 and for the County of Mecklenburg, State of North Carolina,
                 and the parties hereby consent to the personal jurisdiction of
                 such courts.

Section 3.10     Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts,
                 each of which may be signed separately and may be enforceable
                 as an original, but all of which together shall constitute but
                 one agreement.
