Item 1.  Business.

         (a)      General Development of Business

         Momentum Software Corporation, a New York corporation ("Momentum" or
the "Company"), is principally engaged through Momentum Software Corporation, a
Delaware corporation ("MSC"), in the development and marketing of computer
software technology (the "Technology") known as middleware, a layer of software
residing between the network and the application designed to facilitate and
accelerate development of distributed and portable applications across
heterogeneous computing environments.

         In June 1990, with the approval of the shareholders of the Company, the
Company transferred certain technology from its wholly-owned subsidiary,
Momentum Holding Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Momentum Holding"), to
MSC (then a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) in accordance with the terms
of a stock purchase agreement (the "Series A Stock Purchase Agreement"), by and
among MSC, ABS Ventures III Limited Partnership, Brown Technology Associates
Limited Partnership and Catalyst Ventures L.P. (the "Series A Investors"). The
Series A Stock Purchase Agreement provided for the transfer of such technology
to MSC in exchange for 875,000 shares of the common stock, par value $.01, of
MSC. Pursuant to the terms of the Series A Stock Purchase Agreement, the Series
A Investors purchased 1,000,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock,
par value $.10 of MSC (the "Series A Preferred Stock"), for the aggregate
consideration of $1,000,000, which included cancellation of $50,000 of
promissory notes.

         In June 1993, MSC entered into a stock and warrant purchase agreement
(the "Series B Stock Purchase Agreement") by and among MSC, ABS Ventures III
Limited Partnership, Catalyst Ventures L.P., Brantley Venture Partners II L.P.
and Poly Ventures II, Limited Partnership (the "Series B Investors"). Pursuant
to the terms of the Series B Stock Purchase Agreement, the Series B Investors
purchased 2,558,139 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value
$.10 per share of MSC (the "Series B Preferred Stock"), and warrants to purchase
up to 833,333 shares of common stock, par value $.01 of MSC, at an exercise
price of $1.075 per share, for the aggregate consideration of $2,749,999.43,
which included cancellation of $650,000 of promissory notes.

         In September 1993, MSC acquired certain assets and liabilities of
Horizon Strategies, Incorporated ("Horizon"). In consideration therefor, MSC
issued 866,465 shares of Common Stock, par value $.01 of MSC to Horizon.

         In September 1994, MSC entered into a stock subscription agreement (the
"Series C Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement") by and among MSC, ABS Ventures
III Limited Partnership, Catalyst Ventures L.P., Brantley Venture Partners,
L.P., Poly Ventures II, Limited Partnership, New York Life Insurance Company,
Crescent International Holdings Limited, C. Michael Markbrieter, Robert F.
Raucci, Lawrence D. Duckworth and Edelson Technology Venture Partners (the
"Series C Investors"). Pursuant to the terms of the Series C Preferred Stock
Purchase Agreement, the Series C Investors purchased 2,437,933 shares
of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.10 per share of MSC (the
"Series C Preferred Stock"), for the aggregate consideration of $3,535,002.85,
which included cancellation of $600,000 of promissory notes.

         Also in September 1994, MSC acquired certain assets and liabilities
(the "ISM Technology") of Highland Systems Corporation, d/b/a ISM Corporation
("ISM"). In consideration therefor, MSC issued 325,000 shares of common stock of
MSC at closing and approximately 75,172 additional shares of such stock, as
contingent consideration based on product sales and implementation fees related
to the ISM Technology and the Technology over the eighteen month period
following the date of acquisition.

                                       2
<PAGE>

         On June 19, 1996, MSC sold the ISM Technology, as existing at the date
of sale, to EnvisionIt Software Corporation ("EnvisionIt"), the principals of
which were principals of ISM. In consideration for such ISM Technology,
EnvisionIt conveyed approximately 183,661 shares of common stock of MSC to MSC
(which shares were deemed transferred to EnvisionIt by its principals), assumed
existing liabilities with respect to the ISM Technology and granted MSC a five
year option to purchase a 20% stake in EnvisionIt, for the following
consideration: If exercised in year 1 though year 3, $500,000, Year 4 $750,000
and year 5 $1,000,000.

         In October 1996, MSC entered into a stock subscription agreement (the
"Series D Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement") and stock warrant agreement (the
" Series D Warrants") by and among MSC and the Series C investors. Pursuant to
the terms of the Series D Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, the Series C
Investors purchased 947,692 shares of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, par
value $.10 per share of MSC (the "Series D Preferred Stock") and Series D
Warrants to purchase up to 1,658,461 shares of common stock , par value of $.01
of MSC, at an exercise price of $.30 per share, for the aggregate consideration
of $1,374,153. In connection with the issuance of the Series D Preferred Stock,
pursuant to antidilution rights previously granted to the holders of Series A,
Series B and Series C Preferred Stock, such holders received an additional
79,803 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, 203,443 shares of Series B
Preferred Stock and 351,235 shares of Series C Preferred Stock.

         The Company currently owns 875,000 shares of the common stock of MSC.
Assuming all of the shares of Series A, Series B, Series C and Series D
Preferred Stock were converted into shares of common stock of MSC, the Company
would own approximately 9.13% of the total number of shares of MSC common stock
outstanding. In addition, 2,491,794 shares of common stock of MSC are reserved
for issuance upon exercise of outstanding warrants and 2,463,341 shares of
common stock of MSC are reserved for issuance upon exercise of options granted
and to be granted to employees, consultants, directors and officers of MSC. In
the event all of such warrants and options were exercised and all of the shares
of Series A, Series B, Series C and Series D Preferred Stock were converted into
common stock, the Company would own approximately 6.02% of the total number of
outstanding shares of common stock of MSC.

         The Company has not generated any revenues in the current year, or in
the prior two fiscal years, and all of its operations continue to be conducted
through MSC. Depending upon its then current sales level, MSC may in the future
require additional financing. No assurances can be given as to MSC's ability to
procure such financing on terms deemed favorable by MSC. In the event MSC does
not generate sufficient sales to satisfy current overhead expenses, MSC may be
forced to curtail its then current level of operations. See "Item 7-Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

         The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of New York on
September 4, 1968, under the name of Servo-Trend, Inc. The Company was formerly
engaged in the ownership and operation of vending machines, and it was inactive
between 1976 and 1989. In March 1989, the name of the Company was changed to its
present name.

         The Company's principal executive offices are located at 777 Terrace
Avenue, Hasbrouck Heights, NJ 07604 (201-288-5373).

         (b)      Financial Information About Industry Segments

         The Company through MSC engages in one business segment, the
development and marketing of certain computer software Technology. See the
Financial Statements included in this report following Item 14.

         (c)      Narrative Description of Business

         The Company has no operations other than through MSC, which is
principally engaged in the development and marketing of certain computer
software Technology designed to facilitate and accelerate development of
distributed and portable applications across heterogeneous computing
environments.

         MSC has developed the product set known as X-IPC (Extended
Inter-Process Communications Facilities) which augments the interprocess
communications (IPC) facilities of UNIX, OS/2, Windows, VMS, and other operating
systems. Interprocess communications is the software mechanism by which computer


                                       3
<PAGE>

programs communicate with each other. It is common for computers to run several
programs simultaneously, thereby requiring inter-communications between programs
to promote the exchange of data and information. MSC's software provides the
mechanism for increased and efficient inter-communication, which enables
concurrently executing processes or tasks to synchronize, communicate and share
resources on stand-alone, multi-tasking computer operating systems or across a
network of heterogeneous computers. The software is designed to augment
interprocess communication required by multi-tasking operating systems and to
enhance communication to facilitate performance. In addition, MSC's software
enables programs written for a particular computer environment to operate in
different environments and across multiple computer platforms (source code
portability). The software is also designed as a superior tool to enhance
productivity and efficiency through its user-friendly structure which decreases
training time required of personnel who operate the computer terminal.

         Through the acquisition of Horizon, MSC acquired the product set and
technology developed by Horizon formerly known as Message Express (MX), which
facilitated and accelerated the development of distributed applications by
employing a consistent interface across all platforms, and by transparently
handling the differences and complexities created in communicating between
different operating systems, hardware platforms and network protocols. MX
provided guaranteed delivery in a deferred, asynchronous methodology, employing
a highly simplified "4-verb api" (application program interface). MSC
incorporated the features of MX into the Technology, creating a more versatile
product set offering additional capabilities for client-server and distributed
application development

Marketing

         MSC markets the Technology to sophisticated software developers engaged
in multi-tasking systems or involved with systems with multiple platforms. MSC's
business strategy is to market the Technology to key strategic customers and to
software vendors for resale to end-users. MSC believes the Technology addresses
a need created by the heterogeneous networking of computers and the inadequacy
of existing software to facilitate inter-communication between computer
programs. MSC will continue to sell its products through its direct sales force,
as well as maintain a presence at specific trade shows. Additionally, MSC is
seeking strategic partnerships and is planning direct mail campaigns.

         In conjunction with licensing its software, MSC currently provides a
maintenance agreement to purchasers at no additional cost for three months from
the date of purchase. The maintenance agreement provides the user with support
with respect to software applications and any upgrades of the software during
such period that might be released. At the expiration of the three month period,
the customer may renew the maintenance agreement for additional one-year periods
for a fee. The software upgrades provided by MSC relate to modifications and
enhancements which facilitate its use, based upon research and development and
customer feedback.

Proprietary Rights

         To protect its proprietary rights to the software, MSC affixes a
copyright notice to each program. Although the copyright notice provides limited
protection for computer software, the use of the copyright notice may not
prevent others from selling software programs similar to MSC's programs. In
addition, the licensing agreements under which MSC markets its software provide
that the use of the software is limited to a particular computer. However, the
use of these steps may not protect MSC from competition or unauthorized use of
copies of the software, and MSC may not have the resources necessary to enforce
its proprietary rights.

Competition

         The computer software industry generally is subject to intense
competition. MSC competes with numerous entities, most of which are
substantially larger, have greater financial and other resources than MSC and
the Company and market a diversified line of computer products. MSC believes
that its ability to attract customers will be dependent upon the features of its
software and the continued improvement of the Technology on which it is based.
As of March 19, 1997, MSC believes that there are approximately 7 entities which


                                       4
<PAGE>

have products which may be deemed competitive with the Technology. MSC believes
that its major competitors include PeerLogic, Inc., International Business
Machines Corporation ("IBM"), and Digital Equipment Corporation ("DEC"). MSC's
ability to compete and its competitive position are influenced, in part, by the
market acceptance of MSC's software and the ability of MSC to upgrade the
software based on technological changes in the industry, customer feedback and
available financial resources to implement the changes.

Research and Development

         MSC devotes significant funds for research and development activities
related to the Technology and for acquisition of related technologies. In each
of the last three years, MSC has expended between $1,000,000 and $1,500,000 for
such activities. The amount of such funds expended for research and development
will be limited by the amount of sales generated by MSC.

Employees

         The Company, apart from MSC, did not employ any persons as of March 19,
1997 and functions solely through the efforts of its officers, Ely Eshel and
Daniel Schwartz.

         As of March 19, 1997 MSC employed twenty-five full-time employees,
including seven officers, five persons engaged in research and development
activities, six persons engaged in sales and marketing, four administrative
assistants and three individuals involved in engineering support and consulting
activities.

Item 2.  Properties.

         The Company has no facilities other than those leased by MSC. MSC
currently leases approximately 8,024 square feet of office space at 777 Terrace
Avenue, Hasbrouck Heights , New Jersey, for six years from December 1, 1996 to
November 30, 2002 at a yearly expense of $149,246 (including supplemental
electric of $10,832/year) and approximately 3,867 square feet of office space at
377 Hoes Lane, Piscataway, New Jersey terminating on May 31, 1999 (a three-year
lease), which has been sublet to a third party though the expiration of the
lease. MSC also leases approximately 5,230 square feet of office space at 75
Second Avenue, Needham, Massachusetts terminating on October 31, 1997 (a
three-year lease), which has been sublet to a third party through the expiration
of the lease On November 1, 1996, MSC entered into an office lease at 8 Pembroke
Street, Kingston, MA for approximately 750 square feet, on a month to month
basis, at a yearly expense of $6,000.

Item 3.  Legal Proceedings.

         Neither the Company nor MSC is presently a party to any material
litigation, nor to the knowledge of the Company is any material litigation
threatened against the Company or MSC.

Item 4.  Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

         No matters were submitted to a vote of the shareholders of the Company
during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996.

         (c)      Dividends.

         The Company has neither declared nor paid any cash dividends on its
Common Stock since its inception. Other than the requirements of the Business
Corporation Law of the State of New York that dividends be paid out of the
capital surplus only, and that the declaration and payment of a dividend not
render the Company insolvent, there are no restrictions on the Company's present
or future ability to pay cash dividends. See Item 7 "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and
Capital Resources."

         The payment of cash dividends, if any, in the future rests within the
discretion of the Company's Board of Directors and will depend, among other
things, upon earnings, capital requirements, financial condition as well as
other relevant factors. It is the intention of Management that for at least the
next year, all funds otherwise available for the payment of dividends will be
retained for use in the development of the Company's business.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

         As of December 31, 1996, the Company had a working capital deficit of
$828,662, as compared to a working capital deficit of $813,858 as of December
31, 1995. The decrease in the Company's working capital is attributable to
expenses incurred by the Company. As of the date hereof, the only operations
engaged in by the Company are those operations being conducted by MSC. Apart
from revenues generated by MSC and the ability of the Company to receive
dividends as described below, the Company has no independent source of revenue.
Although no formal plans exist, the Company would require additional financing
in the short term to sustain any operations, apart from the operations of MSC.
In addition, and depending upon whether the Company is then engaged in any
operations apart from MSC, the Company will require additional financing to
sustain its operations in the long-term. No assurance can be given that the
Company will be able to procure such financing, or if available, that such
financing would be on terms deemed favorable by the Company.

         The ability of MSC to declare and pay dividends to the Company is
limited pursuant to the terms of the outstanding Series A, Series B, Series C
and Series D Preferred Stock of MSC, of which the Company does not own any
shares. The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to an 8% annual
dividend, the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to a 10%

         MSC expects to fund its future operations from revenues generated by
the sale of software products and related consulting activities, from cash on
hand, and from additional debt and equity financing. As of December 31, 1996,
MSC had no short term debt other than the current portion of installment
obligations for equipment financing. MSC plans to devote substantially all of
its available resources toward the marketing and sale of its products, and
toward continued research and development of its products.

         Pursuant to the terms of the Stockholder's Agreement dated September
20, 1994, the stockholders of MSC, including the Company, have agreed to use
their best efforts to vote their shares of outstanding capital stock of MSC to
cause MSC's Board of Directors to consist of no more than nine (9) members, in
the following manner: (i) two (2) persons designated by the Series A Preferred
Stockholders for as long as at least 500,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock
(adjusted for Recapitalization Events) are issued and outstanding, (ii) two (2)
persons designated by the Series B Preferred Stockholders for as long as at
least 1,279,069 shares of Series B Preferred Stock (adjusted for
Recapitalization Events) are issued and outstanding, (iii) one (1) person
designated by the Series C Preferred Stockholders for as long as at least
1,034,482 shares of Series C Preferred Stock (adjusted for Recapitalization
Events) are issued and outstanding, (iv) one (1) person designated by Horizon
shareholders, (v) one (1) person designated by the majority of the holders of
the Series A and Series B Preferred Stock and Common Stock voting as a single
class, (vi) one (1) person designated by Ely Eshel, Daniel Schwartz and Sol
Menche. See "Item 12 - Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and
Management."

         As of December 31, 1996, the Company owed Messrs. Eshel, Menche and
Schwartz an aggregate $536,442. See "Item 13 Certain Relationships and Related
Transactions." The payment of principal and accrued interest to such persons is
to be made upon demand by such individuals. The Company does not have the
current ability to pay such principals the amounts owed and does not anticipate
making payments to them with respect to such obligation during the next twelve
months. Depending upon the Company's then current level of operations, any
payments made to such principals could adversely affect the Company.

         As of December 31, 1996, the Company owed MSC $179,851 for amounts 
paid by MSC on behalf of the Company. This obligation bears interest at the 
rate of 8% per annum compounded quarterly, and is unsecured. No arrangements 
have been made to date as to the settlement of this balance.

         The Company is not currently in default with respect to any outstanding
loan obligations.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance.

Company's officers and directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of a
registered class of the Company's equity securities, to file reports of
ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Officers, directors and greater than ten percent shareholders are required by

file.

         Based solely on its review of the copies of such reports received by
it, or written representations from certain reporting persons that no reports

     Report of Independent Accountants


     March 27, 1997


     To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
     Momentum Software Corporation (NY)

     In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and
     the related consolidated statements of operations, of changes in
     stockholders' deficit and of cash flows present fairly, in all material
     respects, the financial position of Momentum Software Corporation (NY) and
     its wholly-owned subsidiaries at December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the
     results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three
     years in the period ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally
     accepted accounting principles. 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 of these statements in accordance with generally
     accepted auditing standards which 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant
     estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial
     statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable
     basis for the opinion expressed above.

     The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that
     the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the
     financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from
     operations and has a net capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt
     about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in
     regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial
     statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
     outcome of this uncertainty.

Momentum Software Corporation (NY)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Summary of Operations

     The Company  These  financial  statements  include the accounts of Momentum
     Software Corporation , a New York corporation ("Momentum NY"), and those of
     its wholly-owned  subsidiaries:  Momentum Holding  Corporation,  a Delaware
     corporation   ("Holding")   and  MES   Holding   Corporation,   a  Delaware
     corporation,  ("MES  Holding")  collectively,  the "Company".  Momentum NY,
     Holding, and MES Holding are substantially  inactive. At December 31, 1996,
     Momentum NY has a 9.13% voting interest in Momentum Software Corporation, a
     Delaware corporation ("Momentum DE") (Note 3).

     Momentum DE devotes its efforts to  designing,  engineering,  enhancing and
     marketing software products that facilitate the development of portable and
     distributed applications in heterogeneous computer environments.

     Management's Plans 

     As shown in the accompanying  financial  statements,  at December 31, 1996,
     the Company had a stockholders' deficit and working capital deficiency of 
     $828,662.

     Management  has  no  formal  plans  regarding  the  Company's   operations.
     Management does plan to continue to support the endeavors of Momentum DE.

2.   Significant Accounting Policies

     Principles of Consolidation 

     The consolidated  financial statements include the accounts of Momentum NY,
     Holding and MES Holding.  All significant  intercompany  transactions  have
     been eliminated. 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  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.

     Income  Taxes

     The Company  utilizes an asset and  liability  approach  that  requires the
     recognition of deferred tax assets and  liabilities for the expected future
     tax consequences of temporary  differences between the carrying amounts and
     the tax basis of assets and liabilities.

     The year end for  income tax  purposes  of  Momentum  NY,  Holding  and MES
     Holding is May 31. Each  subsidiary  files its own tax return.  At December
     31, 1996,  the following  estimated net operating loss  carryforwards  were
     available at each of the companies:

     Momentum NY                          $405,000
     Holding                               591,000
     MES Holding                                --

              The net operating loss carryforwards for Momentum NY and Holding
     expire in various years through 2011.

Momentum Software Corporation (NY)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

     The net operating loss carryforwards as listed above represent at December
     31, 1996 the gross deferred tax assets of approximately $166,000 for
     Momentum NY and $242,000 for Holding. A full valuation allowance has been
     provided against each deferred tax asset since the realization of the
     future benefits cannot be sufficiently assured as of December 31, 1996.

3.   Investment In and Payable to Affiliate

     Effective June 11, 1990, Momentum DE issued 875,000 shares of common stock
     to Momentum NY in exchange for transfer of software technology
     by Holding to Momentum DE. The common stock issued to Momentum NY and the
     software technology received by Momentum DE were valued at $1.00.

     During 1996, Momentum DE issued 947,692 shares of Series D preferred stock
     and 19,125 shares of common stock. As a result of these issuances, the 
     Company's voting interest in Momentum DE decreased from 10.73% at 
     December 31, 1995 to 9.13% at December 31, 1996. The Company
     accounts for its investment in Momentum DE in accordance with the cost
     method. The carrying value of this investment was $0 at December 31, 1996.

     At December 31, 1996 and 1995, the payable to to affiliate of
     $179,851 and $145,674 respectively, represents amounts payable to momentum
     DE for professional fees paid by Momentum DE on behalf of Momentum NY, for
     amounts advanced by Momentum DE, for accrued interest.

     At December 31, 1996 and 1995, the payable to affiliate of $179,851 and 
     $145,674, respectively, represents amounts payable to Momentum
     DE for professional fees paid by Momentum DE on behalf of Momentum NY, for
     amounts advanced by Momentum DE, and for accrued interest.

4.   Related Party Transactions

     At December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Company has recorded $536,442
     and $506,874, respectively, due to the three principal common stockholders
     of Momentum NY for amounts paid, or incurred, by them on behalf of the
     Company. Included in these amounts is $159,000 for consulting service fees
     due to these individuals for services rendered to the Company prior to
     1990. These unsecured balances earn interest at 8%, except for the amounts
     due for prior consulting services. Depending upon future cash resources,
     the Company may satisfy these obligations through the issuance of
     additional shares of common stock of Momentum NY.

     Accrued professional fees at December 31, 1996 and 1995, include
     $94,368 payable to an accounting firm. A member of that accounting firm is
     related to a stockholder of Momentum NY. This obligation is not interest
     bearing and is unsecured. No arrangements have been made to date as to the
     settlement of this balance.

5.   Common Stock

     Approximately 68.1% of the outstanding common stock of Momentum NY
     is held by three individuals. These individuals also participate in the
     Company as the President, the Secretary/Treasurer and a Board member. Two
     of these individuals are also officers of Momentum DE.

                             SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

To:             Mr. Joseph Valley
                President/Chief Executive Officer
                Momentum Software Corporation
                401 South Van Brunt Street
                Englewood, New Jersey  07631

                1. The Board of Directors of Momentum Software Corporation, a
Delaware corporation (the "Company") has authorized the offering and issuance
(the "Offering") of 258,621 Units (an aggregate of 1,034,484 shares of Series D
Preferred Stock and 1,810,347 Warrants exercisable into 1,810,347 shares of
Common Stock) at an offering price per Unit of $5.80 ("Subscription Price").
Each Unit is comprised of 4 shares of Series D Preferred Stock and 7 Warrants,
with each Warrant exercisable into one share of Common Stock. Each holder of
Preferred Stock is being offered the right to subscribe for the number of Units
set forth in Schedule A hereto. The acquisition of such Units would avoid a
Preferred Stock Holder losing any of the anti-dilution protection currently
provided in the Company's Restated and Amended Certificate of Incorporation and
any Series B Warrant Agreement to which it is a party. To the extent a holder of
Preferred Stock subscribes for less than all the amount set forth in Schedule
"A" but more than 50%, it will lose a portion of its anti-dilution protection
and to the extent the holder subscribes for 50% or less, it shall lose its
entire dilution rights with respect thereto, except with respect to any
Recapitalization event, as defined below.

                To the extent a holder of Preferred Stock subscribes for less
than the amount set forth in Schedule A, those persons subscribing for more than
the number set forth on Schedule A shall, based on their respective percentages
set forth on Schedule A be entitled to acquire the Units not so subscribed for.

                Each offeree desiring to purchase Units ("Subscriber") must set
forth the number of Units it desires to subscribe for on the signature page
hereof.

                The Company may avail itself of multiple closings with respect
to this Offering with the first closing expected to occur before October 30,
1996, unless extended by the Company in its sole discretion to a date not later
than November 15, 1996 ("Initial Closing Date") and the last closing by November
15, 1996 (the "Final Closing Date"). In the event of multiple closings, the
Company will neither amend the terms and conditions of the Offering after the
Initial Closing Date nor grant subsequent Subscribers any additional rights. A
minimum of 129,311 Units must be subscribed for in order to consummate an
Initial Closing. The Initial Closing Date shall not occur prior to the
expiration of the 30 day preemptive right ("Preemptive Right") period unless all
the persons set forth on Schedule A have subscribed by said date or notified the
Company in writing that it waives its Preemptive Rights to acquire Units. By
executing this Subscription Agreement, such Subscriber waives the notice
provisions with respect to the Preemptive Rights and, subject to compliance with
the subscription for initially unsold Units set forth above, its Preemptive
Right to subscribe for additional Units in excess of the number initially
subscribed for. The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to
accept subscriptions in a lesser number than appearing on the signature page
hereof, to the extent they exceed the number said Subscriber is entitled to
subscribe for as set forth on Schedule A. The undersigned further acknowledges
notwithstanding anything contained hereon to the contrary, that any Subscriber
subscribing after the Initial Closing Date will be required to deliver to the
Company its note in an amount equal to the accrued dividends deemed earned on
the Series D Preferred Stock so subscribed for from the Initial Closing Date to
the date of the acceptance of such subscription. The Note shall bear interest at
a rate identical to the dividend rate on the Series D Preferred Stock and shall
be payable upon the eof the payment of the first dividend on the Series D
Preferred Stock or the liquidation of the Company. Upon each Closing, counsel
for the Company, Snow Becker Krauss P.C., shall deliver to the Company and the
persons whose Subscriptions are being accepted as at the Closing counsel's
opinion in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit "A".

                The Shares are being offered on a best efforts basis, subject to
the aforementioned 129,311 Unit minimum. This Offering is being made solely

<PAGE>

under Sections 4(2) and 4(6) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities
Act") and Regulation D promulgated thereunder and solely to accredited
investors.

                Subscriptions will be deposited on behalf of Subscribers in a
special account at a bank maintained by the Company. If accepted, the checks
tendered by the undersigned or the amount of money represented thereby, will be
applied as discussed in Section 4(iv) hereof. Interest earned between the date
of deposit and the Closing Date, if any, will be used by the Company to offset
the costs of this Offering and will not be paid to Subscribers. Such funds shall
be returned to Subscribers, without any interest earned on account of such
Subscriber, in the event that the Offering is not consummated. The Company
reserves the right to accept the cancellation by a Subscriber of Company
indebtedness in lieu of such Subscriber tendering cash for the payment of all or
a part of the Shares so acquired. The Company further reserves, subject to being
required to accept subscriptions in the amount set forth on Schedule A hereto,
the right not to accept all or part of any subscriptions for Units.

                2. The undersigned agrees that this subscription is and shall be
irrevocable (except as provided by law or the terms hereof), but his obligations
hereunder will terminate if this subscription is not accepted by the Company.

                3. The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the Units, the
Series D Preferred Stock and the shares of the Company's Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of the Series D Preferred Stock (the "Conversion Shares") and
the Warrants and the shares of the Company's Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise of the Warrants (the "Exercise Shares") (the Conversion Shares and
Exercise Shares sometimes hereinafter collectively referred to as the
"Underlying Shares") have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, and accordingly, cannot be sold, transferred, hypothecated, assigned
or otherwise disposed of, unless such Series D Preferred Stock, Warrants and/or
Underlying Shares (collectively, the "Securities") are registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or if in the opinion of counsel,
satisfactory to the Company, such sale, transfer, hypothecation, assignment or
disposition is exempt from such registration requirements. The undersigned
acknowledges and agrees that the transferability of the Securities will be
further restricted under the terms of the Stockholders Agreement dated as of the
date the undersigned's subscription is accepted (the "Stockholders Agreement"),
a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit "B".

                4. The undersigned has been furnished with and has carefully
read this Subscription Agreement and the documents attached as Exhibits hereto
(which Exhibits are comprised of Counsel's opinion, the Stockholders Agreement,
Warrant Agreement, Registration Rights Agreement, Amended Certificate of
Incorporation, Financial Statement and Capitalization Schedule), as well as the
Company's Business Summary dated September 26, 1996 ("Business Plan"). The
undersigned is aware that:

               (i)     There are  substantial  risks  involved in  investing  in
                       the Company and no assurance can be given that the
                       undersigned  will not ultimately lose its entire
                       investment in the Company;

               (ii)    No Federal or state agency has passed upon the Series D
                       Preferred Stock or the Warrants or made any finding or
                       determination as to the fairness of this investment;

               (iii)   The holders of Series D Preferred  Stock have extensive
                       voting rights as set forth in the Amended  Certificate of
                       Incorporation, as defined below, or as otherwise
                       permitted by law. However, the holders of all series of
                       Preferred Stock (the "Preferred  Stock") will vote as one
                       class where the consent of a certain percentage of the
                       then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock is required.
                       The holders of Series B, C and D Preferred Stock have the
                       right with respect to one or more of such series to
                       demand a maximum of three (3) years accumulated dividends
                       be paid in Company Common Stock, valued at the Preferred
                       Stock's respective conversion prices. Each holder of
                       Preferred Stock (upon a majority vote in interest of the
                       holders of Preferred Stock) may require the redemption

<PAGE>

                       of its respective shares of Preferred Stock on August 30,
                       2001 and, provided the required consent of holders of
                       Preferred Stock is obtained in subsequent years, each
                       anniversary thereafter. Redemption by less than all the
                       holders of  Preferred  Stock may  adversely effect
                       holders of Preferred Stock not desiring to redeem. Such
                       August 30, 2001 date was initially August 30, 1999 prior
                       to the amendment of the Certificate of Incorporation
                       creating the Series D Preferred Stock. Attached hereto as
                       Exhibit "C" is the  Company's Amended and Restated
                       Certificate of Incorporation ("Amended Certificate of
                       Incorporation" or "Amended Certificate") which sets forth
                       the respective rights and obligations of all classes of
                       the Company's capital stock. The Amended Certificate of
                       Incorporation is to be filed with the Delaware Secretary
                       of State prior to the acceptance of any subscription for
                       Series D Preferred Stock.

               (iv)    In the event one or more of the holders of Series A,
                       Series B and/or Series C Preferred Stock will not acquire
                       the full number of Units set forth on Schedule A, the
                       Amended Certificate, as in effect as at the date hereof,
                       provides that new classes of Preferred Stock shall be
                       created with respect to those series of Preferred Stock
                       in which all the holders of said series would not be
                       entitled to the same dilution protection upon the
                       consummation of a dilutive offering such as this
                       Offering. The newly created series would have the same
                       rights as the series originally owned by the Preferred
                       Stockholder, except that the new series does not have any
                       dilution protection other than to reflect stock splits,
                       stock dividends, combinations of shares and the like
                       with respect to the Common Stock ("Recapitalization
                       Events"). The Amended Certificate set forth as Exhibit C
                       contemplates that one or more of the holders of Series B
                       and Series C Preferred Stock will not acquire the full
                       number of Units set forth on Schedule A and as such
                       creates two new series, Series B-1 Preferred Stock and
                       Series C-1 Preferred Stock;

                (v)    The Company's Board of Directors (X) have granted to
                       certain employees of the Company, effective upon the
                       Initial Closing, approximately 195,000 stock option
                       (see Exhibit E) in order not to dilute their interest in 
                       the Company, on a fully-diluted basis, as a result of the
                       change in the respective Preferred Stockholders
                       conversion price caused by the Offering and (Y) intend to
                       grant to certain employees of the Company, in the event
                       of a Closing, either regular options or options based on
                       the Company achieving minimum revenues and income before
                       taxes in fiscal 1997 of $9 million and $1.1 million
                       ("Performance Grants"), a maximum of approximately
                       344,250 options (vesting immediately) to acquire Common
                       Stock. The purpose of the Performance Grants is to make
                       said employee's fully diluted percentage holding in the
                       Company the same as they held prior to the offering of
                       the Series D Preferred Stock;

               (vi)    The Company intends to use the proceeds of this Offering
                       for general working capital and to the extent available,
                       fund the Intranet product development and MOM product
                       marketing as described in the Business Plan. Even though
                       the Company currently believes if all the Units offered
                       hereunder are sold, it will have sufficient capital to
                       carry out its Business Plan, including funding the
                       Intranet product development and MOM product marketing,
                       no assurance can be given that the Company will not
                       require additional capital in the future in order to
                       accomplish the above goals. Additional funding may also
                       be required if the Company elects to exercise its option
                       to buy an interest in Envisionit Software Corporation
                       ("Envisionit"), an entity which acquired substantially
                       all the assets of Visual  Flow, Inc., a wholly-owned
                       subsidiary of the Company. The undersigned acknowledges
                       receipt of the terms of said option. No assurance can be
                       given that if financing is required, such financing will

<PAGE>

                       be available upon terms acceptable to the Company, or the
                       required consent of the holders of the Preferred  Stock,
                       when required, will be obtained. Any such additional
                       financing may be superior in right to the rights of the
                       holders of the Series D Preferred Stock. Furthermore, the
                       Company reserves the right, subject to any rights of the
                       holders of the Preferred Stock, to amend its Business
                       Plan;

              (vii)    The Company has not retained an independent investment
                       firm to render a "fairness" opinion with respect to the
                       subscription price for the Units. One or more
                       stockholders of the Company may challenge the fairness
                       of such subscription prices. Each subscriber should
                       consult its own counsel with respect to this issue;

              (viii)   The  Company  may not be able to utilize its full net
                       operating loss for Federal income taxes as a result of
                       Section 382 of the Code. No representation is made as to
                       the availability thereof;

                (ix)   The Company has not paid any dividends since its
                       incorporation  and no assurance can be given that any
                       will be paid in the future;

                 (x)   The Company will provide each Subscriber, or his
                       designee, an opportunity to meet and confer with the
                       Company and the principals of the Company regarding all
                       aspects of the transactions contemplated herein and
                       will afford such Subscriber the opportunity to obtain
                       any additional information, to the extent that the
                       Company possesses such information or can acquire it
                       without unreasonable effort or expense.

               5. The undersigned understands that there is no public market for
the Preferred Stock and/or the Warrants, and it is not likely that any public
market for such securities will develop, nor does a public market for the
Underlying Shares currently exist. No representation is made as to the
likelihood of any such market hereinafter developing. None of the Company's
Common Stock is currently registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission
and no such registration is currently pending or being prepared. In connection
with the undersigned's subscription of Units, the undersigned must
simultaneously execute, and upon acceptance of the subscription by the Company,
be bound by the Registration Rights Agreement ("Registration Rights Agreement")
dated as of the date the undersigned's subscription is accepted, a copy of which
is attached hereto as Exhibit "D". The entering into the Registration Rights
Agreement should not be construed as an obligation or current intent of the
Company to file a Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

               6. The undersigned represents and warrants to the Company that:

             (i) The undersigned, if an individual, has carefully reviewed the

             (xi) The undersigned, if a corporation, partnership, trust, or

               7. The Company represents and warrants to the undersigned that

                    liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation.

         If upon such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation,
whether voluntary or involuntary, the assets to be distributed among the holders
of Preferred Stock shall be insufficient to permit payment in full to the
holders of Preferred Stock of the amounts set forth in (i)(x), (ii)(x), (iii)(x)
and (iv)(x) of this subsection 4(a), then the entire assets and funds of the
Corporation shall be first distributed among the holders of the Preferred Stock
such that the ratio of assets and funds distributed per share of Series A
Preferred Stock to assets and funds distributed per share of Series B Preferred
Stock to assets and funds distributed per share of Series B-1 Preferred Stock to
assets and funds distributed per share of Series C Preferred Stock to assets and
funds distributed per share of Series C-1 Preferred Stock to assets and funds
distributed per share of Series D Preferred Stock is the same as the ratio of
the Series A Original Issue Price to the Series B Original Issue Price to the
Series B-1 Original Issue Price to the Series C Original Issue Price to the
Series C-1 Original Issue Price to the Series D Original Issue Price, until the
holders of the Preferred Stock have been distributed an amount equal to the sum
of the amounts set forth in (i)(x), (ii)(x), (iii)(x) and (iv)(x) of this
subsection 4(a), exclusive of the accrued but unpaid dividends referred to
therein, with the balance, ratably (based on the amount of accrued but unpaid
dividends owed each) among the holders of Preferred Stock.

         (b) Remaining Distributions. After distribution of the amounts set
forth in (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) of subsection 4(a), then the remaining assets
of the Corporation available for distribution, if any, to the stockholders of
the Corporation shall be distributed as follows: (i) first to each holder of
shares of Series B, Series B-1, Series C, Series C-1 and Series D Preferred
Stock, an amount equal to (X) in the case of the Series B and B-1 Preferred

                                       5

Stock owned by each such stockholder, the excess of the sum of the Original
Series B Issue Price, multiplied by the number of Series B and/or B-1 Preferred
Stock then owned by such person and an amount equal to the equivalent of a 15%
per annum (determined on a non-compounded basis) return on such outstanding
Series B and/or B-1 Preferred Stock from time to time (valued at the Original
Series B Issue Price per share) over the aggregate amounts received by such
Series B and/or B-1 Preferred Stockholder with respect to such stock by reason
of a dividend or distribution, including the distributions and dividends
referred to in subsection 4(a) above and (Y) in the case of the Series C and C-1
Preferred Stock owned by each such stockholder, the excess of the sum of the
Original Series C Issue Price multiplied by the number of Series C and/or Series
C-1 Preferred Stock owned by such person and an amount equal to the equivalent
of a 15% per annum (determined on a non-compounded basis from the date of
authorization thereof) return on such outstanding Series C and/or C-1 Preferred
Stock from time to time (valued at the Original Series C Issue Price) over the
aggregate amounts received by such Series C and/or C-1 Preferred Stockholder
with respect to such stock by reason of dividend or distribution, including the
distributions and dividends referred to in subsection 4(a) above and (Z) in the
case of the Series D Preferred Stock owned by each such stockholder, the excess
of the sum of the Original Series D Issue Price multiplied by the number of
Series D Preferred Stock owned by such person and an amount equal to the
equivalent of a 15% per annum (determined on a non-compounded basis from the
date of authorization thereof) return on such outstanding Series D Preferred
Stock from time to time (valued at the Original Series D Issue Price) over the
aggregate amounts received by such Series D Preferred Stockholder with respect
to such stock by reason of dividend or distribution, including the distributions
and dividends referred to in subsection 4(a) above and (ii) the balance to the
holders of Common Stock pro rata on the basis of their respective holdings. In
the event there is insufficient funds to pay the amounts set forth in (X) and
(Y) and (Z) above to the holders of the Series B and B-1 and C and C-1 and D
Preferred Stock, the entire remaining balance shall be distributed pro rata
based on the amount owed pursuant to (X) and (Y) and (Z) above to each holder of
Series B, B-1, C, C-1 and D Preferred Stock.

         (c) Notice. Written notice of such liquidation, dissolution or winding
up, stating a payment date and the place where said payments shall be made,
shall be given by mail, postage prepaid, or by telex to non-U.S. residents, not
less than 20 days prior to the payment date stated therein, to the holders of
record of Preferred Stock, such notice to be addressed to each such holder at
its address as shown by the records of the Corporation.

         5. Conversion. The holders of the Preferred Stock shall have conversion
rights as follows (the "Conversion Rights"):

         (a) Right to Convert. Each share of Preferred Stock shall be
convertible (i) automatically upon the consummation of a firmly underwritten
public offering of shares of the Corporation's Common Stock on Form S-1 or any
successor form, which results in aggregate net proceeds to the Corporation of
not less than $10,000,000 at a per share price of at least 200% of the Series C
Conversion Price (as defined below) then in effect, (ii) automatically upon the
sale or transfer of substantially all the assets or the outstanding Common Stock
of the Corporation, or the consolidation or merger of the Corporation into or
with any other entity or entities, which results in the holder of each share of
Preferred Stock receiving consideration with an aggregate value per share of
Preferred Stock (determined in accordance with the provisions of Section
5(d)(vii) hereof), of at least two and 95/100 (2.95) times the Original Series C
Issue Price, (iii) automatically upon the sale or transfer of substantially all
the assets or the outstanding Common Stock of the Corporation, or the
consolidation or merger of the Corporation into or with any other entity or
entities, which results in the holder of each share of Preferred Stock receiving
consideration with an aggregate value per share of Preferred Stock (determined
in accordance with the provisions of Section 5(d)(vii) hereof), the Corporation
obtains the consent of sixty percent (60%) in interest of the holders of Series
C Preferred Stock and either the consent of Olayan Investor Group or New York
Life Insurance Company to such transaction, (iv) automatically upon the sale or



                                       6
<PAGE>

transfer of substantially all the assets or the outstanding Common Stock of the
Corporation, or the consolidation or merger of the Corporation into or with any
other entity which has a trading market value at the consummation of the
transaction of at least $75,000,000 as determined after fully taking into effect
the consummation of the transaction, and which results in the holder of each
share of Preferred Stock receiving consideration with an aggregate value per
share of Preferred Stock for cash consideration or securities registered under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which may be freely traded without
restriction on a national stock exchange or in the over-the-counter market, of a
corporation (subject to an agreement provided as part of such transaction that,
such securities not be sold without the consent of the public corporation
issuing such stock or securities for a period of not more than 180 days
following the consummation of the transaction), of at least two times the
Original Series C Issue Price, or (v) at the option of the holder thereof, at
any time and from time to time, into such number of fully paid and nonassessable
shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing, for holders of Series A
Preferred Stock, $1.00, for holders of Series B and B-1 Preferred Stock, $1.075,
for holders of Series C and C-1 and D Preferred Stock, $1.45, by the respective
conversion price in effect at the time of conversion. The conversion price at
which shares of Common Stock shall be deliverable upon conversion of Preferred
Stock without the payment of additional consideration by the holder thereof
after the Corporation's sale of all the authorized Series D Preferred Stock and
warrants issued in connection therewith shall initially be $.92609 for holders
of Series A Preferred Stock (the "Series A Conversion Price"), $.98143 for
holders of Series B Preferred Stock (the "Series B Conversion Price"), $1.075
for holders of Series B-1 Preferred Stock (the "Series B-1 Conversion Price")
and $1.25808 for holders of Series C Preferred Stock (the "Series C Conversion
Price"), $1.45 for holders of Series C-1 Preferred Stock (the "Series C-1
Conversion Price") and $1.45 for holders of Series D Preferred Stock (the
"Series D Conversion Price"). Such initial Series A Conversion Price, Series B
Conversion Price, Series C Conversion Price, and Series D Conversion Price and
the rate at which shares of Preferred Stock may be converted into shares of
Common Stock, shall be subject to adjustment as provided below. As set forth
above, no additional consideration is to be paid by the holder of Preferred
Stock upon the conversion thereof and reference to Conversion Price is used
solely for purposes of determining the conversion ratio at which the Preferred
Stock may be converted into Common Stock.

         (b) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be
issued upon conversion of the Preferred Stock. The determination of fractional
shares shall be made on the basis of the total number of shares of each series
of Preferred Stock the holder at the time of conversion is converting divided by
the respective Conversion Prices. In lieu of any fractional shares to which the
holder would otherwise be entitled, the Corporation shall pay cash equal to such
fraction multiplied by the then fair market value of the Common Stock determined
by the Board of Directors in good faith.

         (c) Mechanics of Conversion.

             (i) Subject to (ii) below, in order for a holder of Preferred Stock
to convert shares of Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock, such holder
shall surrender the certificate or certificates for such shares of Preferred
Stock, at the office of the transfer agent for the Preferred Stock (or at the
principal office of the Corporation if the Corporation serves as its own
transfer agent), together with written notice that such holder elects to convert
all or any number of the shares of the Preferred Stock represented by such
certificate or certificates. Such notice shall state such holder's name or the
names of the nominee in which such holder wishes the cerporation, certificates
surrendered for conversion shall be endorsed or accompanied by a written
instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Corporation,
duly executed by the registered holder or his or its attorney duly authorized in
writing. The date of receipt of such certificates and notice by the transfer
agent (or by the Corporation if the Corporation serves as its own transfer
agent) shall be the conversion date ("Conversion Date"). The Corporation shall,
as soon as practicable after the Conversion Date (and in any event within ten
business days after the Conversion Date), issue and deliver at such office to



                                       7
<PAGE>

such holder of Preferred Stock, or to his or its nominees, a certificate or
certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such holder shall
be entitled, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a share.

             (ii) In order for the Corporation to automatically cause the
conversion of the Preferred Stock upon the happening of an event set forth in
subsection (a) (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of Section 5 above, the Corporation must
give written notice to the holders of the Preferred Stock within ten (10)
business days after the event which triggered the automatic conversion. The
Conversion Date for purposes of an automatic redemption is the date of the event
which triggered such conversion. Upon such triggering event, the Preferred Stock
shall have been deemed surrendered for conversion. In order for the holder of
Preferred Stock to receive certificates for shares of Common Stock, the holder
of Preferred Stock must surrender its Preferred Stock certificate to the
Corporation or the Transfer Agent. Any dividends declared on Common Stock will
not be payable to the holders of automatically converted Preferred Stock until
they are tendered for exchange to the Corporation or Transfer Agent.

             (iii) The Corporation shall, at all times when Preferred Stock
shall be outstanding, reserve and keing the conversion of Preferred Stock, such
number of its duly authorized shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time
be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding Preferred Stock.
Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment reducing the Conversion
Price below the then par value of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of the Preferred Stock, the Corporation will take any corporate
action which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the
Corporation may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of
Common Stock at such adjusted Conversion Price.

             (iv) All shares of Preferred Stock which shall have been
surrendered for conversion as herein provided shall no longer be deemed to be
outstanding and all rights with respect to such shares, including the rights, if
any, to receive notices and to vote, shall immediately cease and terminate on
the Conversion Date, except only the right of the holders thereof to receive
shares of Common Stock in exchange therefor. Such conversion shall be deemed to
have been made at the close of business on the Conversion Date, and the person
entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock shall be treated for all purposes
as having become the record holder of such shares of Common Stock at such time.

          (d) Adjustments to Conversion Price for Diluting Issues:

             (i) Special Definitions. For purposes of this Section 5(d), the
following definitions shall apply:

                (A) "Option" shall mean rights, options or warrants to subscribe

                    Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock or Series
                    C Preferred Stock, or Series D Preferred Stock, as the case
                    may be were first issued. The Original Issue Date of Series
                    B-1 Preferred Stock and Series C-1 Preferred Stock shall be
                    the same dates as the Original Issue Date for the Series B
                    and Series C Preferred stock, respectively.

                (C) "Convertible Securities" shall mean any evidences of
                    indebtedness, shares or other securities directly or
                    indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock
                    including, but not limited to convertible debentures and

                    exchange of any Option or Convertible Security, including,
                    but not limited to, an increase resulting from the
                    anti-dilution provisions thereof (other than an increase
                    resulting solely from an adjustment pursuant to this Section

                    issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise or conversion of
                    any such Option or Convertible Security.

             (iv) Adjustment of Series A Conversion Price Upon Issuance of

deemed to be issued pursuant to section 5(d)(iii) but excluding shares issued as
a dividend or distribution as provided in Section 5(f) or upon a stock split or
combination as provided in Section 5(e)), without consideration or for a
consideration per share less than the Series A Conversion Price on the date of
and immediately prior to such issue, then and in such event, such Series A
Conversion Price shall be reduced, concurrently with such issue in order to
increase the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series A Preferred
Stock is convertible, to a price (calculated to the nearest cent) determined by
multiplying the Series A Conversion Price by a fraction (x) the numerator of
which shall be (1) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to such issue (including shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion
of Series A, B, B-1, C, C-1 or D Preferred Stock or other Convertible Securities

outstanding immediately prior to such issue (including shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of any outstanding Series A, B, B-1, C, C-1 or D
Preferred Stock or any other Convertible Securities), plus (2) the number of
such Additional Shares of Common Stock so issued; provided that immediately
after any Additional Shares of Common Stock are deemed issued pursuant to
Section 5(d)(iii) and the Series A Conversion Price has been appropriately
reduced pursuant to this Section 5(d)(iv), then such Additional Shares of Common
Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding for all subsequent applications of this
Section 5(d)(iv), until such time, if ever, as the Options which resulted in the

deemed to be issued pursuant to Section 5(d)(iii), but excluding shares issued
as a dividend or distribution as provided in Section 5(f) or upon a stock split
or combination as provided in Section 5(e)), without consideration or for a
consideration per share less than the applicable Series B Conversion Price in
effect on the date of and immediately prior to such issue, then and in such
event, such Series B Conversion Price shall be reduced, concurrently with such
issue, to a price (calculated to the nearest cent) determined by multiplying the
Series B Conversion Price by a fraction (x) the numerator of which shall be (1)
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue
(including shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any outstanding
Series A, B, B-1, C, C-1 or D Preferred Stock or other Convertible Securities,
plus (2) the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration
received by the Corporation for the total number of Additional Shares of Common
Stock so issued would purchase at the Series B Conversion Price, and (y) the
denominator of which shall be (1) the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such issue (including shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of any outstanding Series A, B, B-1, C, C-1 or D

Additional Shares of Common Stock so issued; provided, that, immediately after
any Additional Shares of Common Stock are deemed issued pursuant to Section
5(d)(iii) and the Series B Conversion Price has been appropriately reduced
pursuant to this Section 5(d)(v), then such Additional Shares of Common Stock

expire or terminate.

             (vi) Adjustment of Series C Conversion Price Upon Issuance of
Additional Shares of Common Stock. In the event the Corporation shall at anytime
after the Original Issue Date for the Series C Preferred Stock issue Additional
Shares of Common Stock (including Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to be
issued pursuant to section 5(d)(iii) but excluding shares issued as a dividend
or distribution as provided in Section 5(f) or upon a stock split or combination
as provided in Section 5(e)), without consideration or for a consideration per
share less than the Series C Conversion Price on the date of and immediately
prior to such issue, then and in such event, such Series C Conversion Price
shall be reduced, concurrently with such issue in order to increase the number
of shares of Common Stock into which the Series C Preferred Stock is
convertible, to a price (calculated to the nearest cent) determined by
multiplying the Series C Conversion Price by a fraction (x) the numerator of
which shall be (1) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately

or distribution as provided in Section 5(f) or upon a stock split or combination
as provided in Section 5(e)), without consideration or for a consideration per
share less than the Series D Conversion Price on the date of and immediately
prior to such issue, then and in such event, such Series D Conversion Price

convertible, to a price (calculated to the nearest cent) determined by
multiplying the Series D Conversion Price by a fraction (x) the numerator of
which shall be (1) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to such issue (including shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion
of any outstanding Series A, B, B-1, C, C-1 or D Preferred Stock or other

             (viii) Adjustment of Series B-1 and C-1 Conversion Price Upon
Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock. The Series B-1 and Series C-1
Conversion Price shall not be adjusted in the event the Corporation shall at
anytime after the Original Issue Date for the Series D Preferred Stock issue
Additional Shares of Common Stock (including Additional Shares of Common Stock
deemed to be issued pursuant to section 5(d)(iii) but excluding shares issued as
a dividend or distribution as provided in Section 5(f) or upon a stock split or

consideration per share less than the Series B-1 and/or C-1 Conversion Price on
the date of and immediately prior to such issue,

             (ix) Determination of Consideration. For purposes of this Section
5, the consideration received by the Corporation for the issue of any Additional
Shares of Common Stock or otherwise shall be computed as follows:

                (A)Cash and Property: Such consideration shall:

                    (I) insofar as it consists of cash, be computed at the
aggregate of cash received by the Corporation, excluding amounts paid or payable
for accrued interest or accrued dividends;

                    (II) insofar as it consists of property other than cash, be
computed at the fair market value thereof at the time of such issue, as
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors; and

                    (III) in the event Additional Shares of Common Stock are
issued together with other shares or securities or other assets of the
Corporation for consideration which covers both, be the proportion of such
consideration so received, computed as provided in clauses (I) and (II) above,
as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.

                (B) Options and Convertible Securities. The consideration per
share received by the Corporation for Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed
to have been issued pursuant to Section 5(d)(iii), relating to Options and
Convertible Securities, shall be determined by dividing

                    (x) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the
Corporation as consideration for the issue of such Options or Convertible
Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration (as
set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision
contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such consideration) payable to
the Corporation upof shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instruments
relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a
subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options



                                       13
<PAGE>

or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, or in the case of
Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such
Convertible Securities.

         (e) Adjustment for Stock Splits and Combinations. If the Corporation
shall at any time or from time to time effect subdivision of the outstanding
Common Stock, the Series A Conversion Price, the Series B Conversion Price, the
Series B-1 Conversion Price, the Series C Conversion Price, the Series C-1
Conversion Price and the Series D Conversion Price then in effect immediately
before the subdivision shall be proportionately decreased. If the Corporation
shall at any time or from time to time combine the outstanding shares of Common
Stock, the Series A Conversion Price, the Series B Conversion Price, the Series
B-1 Conversion Price, the Series C Conversion Price, the Series C-1 Conversion
Price and the Series D Conversion Price then in effect immediately before the
combination shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this
Paragraph shall become effective at the close of business on the date the
subdivision or combination becomes effective.

         (f) Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions. In the event
the Corporation at any time, or from time to time, shall make or issue, or fix a
record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to
receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Common
Stock, then and in each such event the Series A Conversion Price, the Series B
Conversion Price, the Series B-1 Conversion Price, the Series C Conversion
Price, the Series C-1 Conversion Price and the Series D Conversion Price then in
effect shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such
a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record
date, by multiplying the Series A Conversion Price, the Series B Conversion
Price, the Series B-1 Conversion Price, the Series C Conversion Price, the
Series C-1 Conversion Price and the Series D Conversion Price then in effect be
a fraction:

             (1) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of
Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such
issuance or the close of business on such record date and

             (2) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of
Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such
issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of shares
of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution; provided,
however, if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend is not
fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor,
the Series A Conversion Price, the Series B Conversion Price, the Series B-1
Conversion Price, the Series C Conversion Price, the Series C-1 Conversion Price
and the Series D Conversion Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the
close of business on such record date and thereafter the Series A Conversion
Price, the Series B Conversion Price, the Series B-1 Conversion Price, the
Series C Conversion Price, the Series C-1 Conversion Price and the Series D
Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this Paragraph as of the time of
actual payment of such dividends or distributions.

         (g) Adjustments for Other Dividends and Distributions. In the event the
Corporation at any time or from time to time shall make or issue, or fix a
record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to
receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the
Corporation other than shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event
provision shall be made so that the holders of Preferred Stock shall receive
upon conversion thereof in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock
receivable thereupon, the amount of securities of the Corporation that they
would have received had their Preferred Stock been converted into Common Stock
on the date of such event and had they thereafter, during the period from the
date of such event to and including the actual conversion date, retained such
securities receivable by them as aforesaid during such period giving application
to all adjustments called for during such period, under this subsection with



                                       14
<PAGE>

respect to the rights of the holders of the Preferred Stock.

         (h) Adjustment for Reclassification. Exchange or Substitution. If the
Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock shall be
changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of
stock, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification, or otherwise (other
than a subdivision or combination of shares or stock dividend provided for
above, or a reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale of assets provided
for below), then and in each such event the holder of each such share of
Preferred Stock shall have the right thereafter to convert such share into the
kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable
upon such reorganization, reclassification, or other change, by holders of the
number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Preferred Stock were
convertible immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification, or
change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.

         (i) Adjustment for Merger or Reorganization etc. In case of any
consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into another corporation or
the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation to another
corporation, each share of Preferred Stock shall thereafter be convertible for
the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which
a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation deliverable
upon conversion of such class of Preferred Stock would have been entitled upon
such consolidation, merger or sale, provided, however, that the recovery of
holders of Series B Preferred Stock, Series B-1 Preferred Stock, Series C
Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock upon
any such consolidation, merger or sale shall in no event be less than the
equivalent in value (without giving effect to any discount for blockage,
securities law restrictions or any other similar restriction) of the following
amounts: (X) As to the holders of Series B and B-1 Preferred Stock the excess of
the sum of $1.075 (as adjusted for Recapitalization Events) multiplied by the
respective number of shares of Series B and B-1 Preferred Stock outstanding and
an amount equal to the equivalent of a 15% per annum (determined on a
non-compounded basis) return on the outstanding respective Series B and B-1
Preferred Stock from time to time (valued at $1.075 per share, as adjusted for
Recapitalization Events) over the aggregate amounts received by the Series B and
B-1 Preferred Stockholders, respectively, with respect to such stock by reason
of a dividend or distribution, including the distributions and dividends
referred to in subsection 4(a) hereof and (Y) as to the holders of Series C and
C-1 and D Preferred Stock the excess of the sum of $1.45 (as adjusted for
Recapitalization Events) multiplied by the respective number of shares of Series
C and C-1 and D Preferred Stock outstanding and an amount equal to the
equivalent of a 15% per annum (determined on a non-compounded basis) return on
the respective outstanding Series C and C-1 and D Preferred Stock from time to
time (valued at $1.45 per share, as adjusted for Recapitalization Events) over
the respective amounts received by the Series C and C-1 and D Preferred
Stockholders, respectively, with respect to such stock by reason of dividend or
distribution, including the distributions and dividends referred to in
subsection 4(a) hereof. Notwithstanding the above, in the event the total
consideration received in connection with such merger, consolidation, or sale
exceeds the sum of (X) and (Y) above and the amount which the holders of the
Series A Preferred Stock is entitled on the liquidation of the Corporation
pursuant to subsection 4(a)(i)(x) above, such merger, consolidation or sale
shall be deemed a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation
within the meaning of the provisions of subsection 4 above. In the case of any
such merger, consolidation or sale, appropriate adjustment (as determined in
good faith by the Board of Directors) shall be made in the application of the
provisions in this Section 5 set forth with respect to the rights and interest
thereafter of the holders of the Preferred Stock, to the end that the provisions
set forth in this Section 5 (including provisions with respect to changes in and
other adjustments of the Series A Conversion Price, the Series B Conversion
Price, the Series B-1 Conversion Price, Series C Conversion Price, the Series
C-1 Conversion Price and Series D Conversion Price) shall thereafter be



                                       15
<PAGE>

applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares of stock
or other property thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of such Preferred
Stock.

         (j) No Impairment. The Corporation will not, by Amendment of its
Certificate of Incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets,
consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other
voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of
the term, to be observed or performed hereunder by the Corporation but will at
all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this
Section 5 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or
appropriate in order to protect the conversion rights of the holders of the
Preferred Stock against impairment.

         (k) Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each
adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this Section 5,
the Corporation at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or
readjustment in accordance with the terms thereof and furnish to each holder of
Preferred Stock a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and
showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.
The Corporation shall, upon the written request at any time of any holder of
Preferred Stock, furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a similar
certificate setting forth (i) such adjustments and readjustments, (ii) the
Series A Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price, the Series B-1 Conversion
Price, Series C Conversion Price, the Series C-1 Conversion Price or Series D
Conversion Price, as the case may be, then in effect, and (iii) the number of
shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other property which then
would be received upon the conversion of such Preferred Stock.

             (1) Notice of Record Date. In the event:

             (i) that the Corporation declares a dividend (or any other
                 distribution) on its Common Stock payable in Common Stock or
                 other securities of the Corporation;

            (ii) that the Corporation subdivides or combines its outstanding
                 shares of Common Stock;

           (iii) of any reclassification of the Common Stock of the
                 Corporation (other than a subdivision or combination of its
                 outstanding shares of Common Stock or a stock dividend or stock
                 distribution thereof) or of any consolidation or merger of the
                 Corporation into or with another corporation, or of the sale of
                 all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation; or

            (iv) of the involuntary or voluntary dissolution, liquidation or
                 winding up of the Corporation;

then the Corporation shall cause to be filed at its principal office or at the
office of the transfer agent of the Preferred Stock, and shall cause to be
mailed to the holders of the Preferred Stock at their last addresses as shown on
the records of the Corporation or such transfer agent, at least fifteen days
prior to the record date specified in (A) below or thirty days before the date
specified in (B) below, a notice stating

                (A) the record date of such dividend, distribution, subdivision
                    or combination, or, if a record is not to be taken, the date
                    as of which the holders of Common Stock of record to be
                    entitled to such dividend, distribution, subdivision or
                    combination are to be determined, or

                                       16
<PAGE>

                (B) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation,
                    merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is
                    expected to become effective, and the date as of which it is
                    expected that holders of Common Stock of record shall be
                    entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock for
                    securities or other property deliverable upon such
                    reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution
                    or winding up.

         (m) Notwithstanding anything contained in subsection (d) of Section 5
to the contrary, the holder of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and/or Series D Preferred Stock shall
not be entitled to the benefits of subsections (d) (iv), (v), (vi), (vii) of
Section 5 if such holder has failed to participate in any particular offering by
the Corporation of shares of any class or series of its capital stock, however
designated (or other securities, whether debt or equity, convertible into or
exchangeable for any class or series of capital stock, or any warrants, options,
subscriptions or other purchase rights with respect thereto), which would
otherwise result in an adjustment to the Conversion Price for Series A Preferred
Stock, Series B Preferred Stock or Series C Preferred Stock, as the case may be,
pursuant to subsections (d)(iv), (v), (vi) and (vii) of Section 5 (a "Dilutive
Offering"), by acquiring (by itself or together with any affiliated persons or
entities) in such Dilutive Offering more than 50% of such number of shares
offered as shall equal the product of the number of shares as the Corporation
actually determines to offer in the Dilutive Offering to all holders of Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and Series D
Preferred Stock, with respect to such shares of Preferred Stock as to which the
offering is a Dilutive Offering, as determined by the Board of Directors in its
sole discretion, multiplied by a fraction: (a) the numerator of which is the
number of shares of Series Ad by such holder at the time of such Dilutive
Offering as to which such offering by the Corporation shall constitute a
Dilutive Offering, and (b) the denominator of which is the total number of
shares of Series A, B, C and D Preferred Stock then outstanding as to which such
offering by the Corporation shall constitute a Dilutive Offering (the "Pro Rata
Share"). If any holder of Preferred Stock shall fail to purchase more than 50%
of its Pro Rata Share (by itself or together with any affiliated persons or
entities) of any Dilutive Offering, then such holder's rights under subsections
(d) (iv), (v), (vi) and (vii) of Section 5 shall terminate with respect to all
of such holder's Preferred Stock owned immediately prior to the Dilutive
Offering and shall no longer be of any force and effect with respect to any
dilution resulting from the Dilutive Offering and an event referred to in
Section 5(d)(iii). If any holder of Preferred Stock shall purchase more than 50%
but less than all of its Pro Rata Share of any Dilutive Offering, than such
holder's rights under subsections (d) (iv), (v), (vi) and (vii) of Section 5
shall terminate and shall no longer be of any force and effect only with respect
to the portion of its Pro Rata Share not so purchased. The Corporation shall
take all necessary actions to designate new series of Preferred Stock on any
occasion that any holder of Preferred Stock shall fail to purchase its Pro Rata
Share of any Dilutive Offering. Each share of such holder's Preferred Stock to
which it is no longer entitled to dilution protection under Subsections (d)(iv),
(v), (vii) and (vi) shall be immediately converted into one share of such
newly-created series of Preferred Stock; provided, however, that the provisions
of subsections (d)(iv), (v), (vi) and (vii) of Section 5 hereof shall no longer
apply with respect to such newly-created series of Preferred Stock; and provided
further, however, that the Conversion Price for such newly-created series of
Preferred Stock shall be the Converfect for the Series A Preferred Stock, Series
B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock or Series D Preferred Stock, as the
case may be, in effect immediately prior to such Dilutive Offering. Such new
series of Preferred Stock shall otherwise be identical in all respects to the
Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock or
Series D Preferred Stock, as the case may be. Except as otherwise required by



                                       17
<PAGE>

law, any newly-created series of Preferred Stock shall vote together as a class
with the Preferred Stock or series of Preferred Stock which it owns originally
as a member on all matters submitted to the stockholders for a vote or a written
consent.

         (n) Notwithstanding anything contained herein in subsection (d) of
Section 5 to the contrary, the applicable Series A Conversion Price, Series B
Conversion Price, Series B-1 Conversion Price, Series C Conversion Price, Series
C-1 Conversion Price, or Series D Conversion Price, as the case may be, shall
not be so reduced at such time if the amount of such reduction would be an
amount less than $.01, but any such amount shall be carried forward and
reduction with respect thereto made at the time of and together with any
subsequent reduction which, together with such amount and any other amount or
amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate $.01 or more.

         6. Optional Redemption.

         (a) Right of Redemption. Subject to subsection (c) of this Section 6,
on August 30, 2001 and each anniversary thereof, such date being hereinafter
referred to as the "Redemption Declaration Date"), and so long as any shares of
Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series B-1 Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock or Series D Preferred Stock
shall be outstanding, the Corporation shall (unless otherwise prevented by law)
redeem, subject to the limitations set forth herein and the receipt of the
written consent of sixty (60%) percent of the outstanding shares of Preferred
Stock, all shares of Preferred Stock which a holder or holders of Preferred
Stock elects to have redeemed by delivering to the Corporation a written notice
to such effect at least 45, but not more than 60, days prior to July 31, 2001,
or any anniversary thereafter. In addition, the Corporation shall notify al]
holders of Preferred Stock at least 40 days prior to the applicable July 31 as
to the number of shares of Preferred Stock which holders of Preferred Stock have
elected to have redeemed at such date and the names of the redeeming
stockholders. The holders of Preferred Stock shall then have until the
respective July 30th to deliver written notice of its desire to redeem. The
shares of Preferred Stock elected as at the respective Redemption Declaration
Date to be redeemed (the "Optional Redeemable Shares") shall be so redeemed by
the Corporation in three equal annual installments (each, a "Redemption
Occurrence Date"), upon surrender by the holders of one-third of the number of
its Optional Redeemable Shares; provided, that at any time prior to any
Redemption Occurrence Date, any holder of Optional Redeemable Shares may elect,
upon 30 days notice to the Corporation, to rescind the redemption option with
respect to all of its unredeemed Optional Redeemable Shares. If the Corporation
is not able to redeem all of the shares of the Preferred Stock requested by each
such holder to be redeemed, the Corporation shall redeem on the Redemption
Occurrence Date the maximum number of shares of Preferred Stock which the
Corporation is able to redeem (allocated pro rata among holders in accordance
with the number of shares which each such holder is requesting to be redeemed on
the Redemption Occurrence Date). The Preferred Stock shallari passu for purposes
of this Section 6(a) based upon the respective number of shares of Common Stock
into which a share of such series of Preferred Stock is then convertible. Any
shortfall shall be redeemed at such earlier time as the Corporation is able to
do so.

         (b) Redemption Price. The amount per share at which the shares of
Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series B-1 Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred
Stock are to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 6 on their respective
Redemption Occurrence Dates by the Corporation shall be an amount equal to (i)
with respect to holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, $1.00 per share
of Series A Preferred Stock, as adjusted for Recapitalization Events, plus an
amount equal to all accrued but unpaid dividends thereon, computed to the date
payment thereof is made available; (ii) with respect to holders of shares of
Series B and B-1 Preferred Stock, $1.075 per share of Series B and B-1 Preferred



                                       18

Stock plus an amount equal to all accrued but unpaid dividends thereon, computed
to the date payment thereof is made available; and (iii) with respect to holders
of Series C and C-1 and D Preferred Stock, $1.45 per share, as adjusted for
Recapitalization Events, of Series C and C-1 and D Preferred Stock plus an
amount equal to all accrued but unpaid dividends thereon, computed to the date
payment thereof is made available. The total sum payable per share of the Series
A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series B-1 Preferred Stock, Series
C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock on
any Redemption Occurrence Date is hereinafter referred to as the "Redemption
Price", and any payment to be made is hereinafter referred to as the "Redemption
Payment."

         (c) Redemption Priority. Notice of the Redemption Occurrence Date,
other than a Redemption Occurrence Date which is the Redemption Declaration
Date, and the redemption option exercisable in connection therewith pursuant to
this Section 6 shall be sent by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the
holders of record of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series B-1 Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1
Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock entitled to exercise the redemption
option at their respective addresses as the same shall appear on the books of
the Corporation. Such notice shall be mailed not less than 20 nor more than 60
days in advance of the applicable Redemption Occurrence Date other than where a
Redemption Occurrence Date is the Redemption Declaration Date, in which case no
notice need to be given by the Corporation. At any time on or after the
Redemption Occurrence Date, the holders of record of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock and Series B-1 Preferred Stock and
Series C Preferred Stock and Series C-1 Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred
Stock to be redeemed on such Redemption Occurrence Date in accordance with this
Section 6 shall be entitled to receive the applicable Redemption Price upon
actual delivery to the Corporation or its agents of the certificates
representing the shares entitled to be redeemed. If upon any redemption the
assets of the Corporation available for redemption shall be insufficient to pay
the holders of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series B-1 Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock
and Series D Preferred Stock the full amounts to which they are entitled, the
holders of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series B-1 Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock
and Series D Preferred Stock requesting redemption shall share as set forth in
subsection 6(a) above.

         (d) Right of Conversion. Anything contained in this Section 6 to the
contrary notwithstanding, the holders of shares of Series, A Preferred Stock,
Series B Preferred Stock, Series B-1 Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock,
Series C-1 Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock requested by such
holders as herein provided to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 6 shall have
the right, exercisable at any time up to the close of business on the Redemption
Occurrence Date (unless default shall be made by the Corporation in the payment
of the Redemption Price as herein provided, in which event such right shall be
exercisable until such default is cured), upon written notice delivered to the
Corporation, to convert all of any part of such shares to be redeemed as herein
provided into shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 5 hereof. If, and to
the extent, any shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series B-1 Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock
and Series D Preferred Stock so entitled to redemption are converted into shares
of Common Stock by the holders thereof prior to the close of business on the
Redemption Occurrence Date, the total number of shares of Series A Preferred
Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series B-1 Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred
Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock otherwise to be
redeemed on such date shall be reduced by the number of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series B-1 Preferred Stock, Series C
Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock and
Series C Preferred Stock so converted.

         (e) Cancellation of Redeemed Stock. So long as any shares of Preferred



                                       19

Preferred Stock, Series B-1 Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series
C-1 Preferred Stock or Series D Preferred Stock redeemed pursuant to this
Section 6 or otherwise acquired by the Corporation in any manner whatsoever
shall be cancelled and shall not under any circumstances be reissued; and the
Corporation may from time to time take such appropriate corporate action as may
be necessary to reduce accordingly the number of authorized shares of Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series B-1 Preferred Stock, Series C
Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock or Series D Preferred Stock.

         7. Restrictions. (a) Rights Granted Holders of Series A Preferred Stock

Series D Preferred Stock remain outstanding, in addition to any other rights
provided by law, without first obtaining the affirmative vote or written consent
of the holders of not less than 60% of the then outstanding shares of Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series B-1 Preferred Stock, Series C
Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock voting

the respective shares of Preferred Stock would then be converted at their then
respective Conversion Price), the Corporation shall not:

                                   ARTICLE II

             Purchase and Sale of Assets; Assumption of Liabilities;
                              Additional Covenants

         Section 2.1. Purchase and Sale of Assets. Upon the terms and subject to
the conditions of this Agreement and on the basis of the representations,
warranties and agreements contained herein, Visual Flow hereby sells, assigns,
transfers, conveys and delivers to the Purchaser all of Visual Flow's right,
title and interest in and to the assets listed on Schedule 1 annexed hereto (the
"Purchased Assets") and the Purchaser hereby purchases such Purchased Assets
from Visual Flow; provided that the Purchased Assets do not include any right,
title or interest in or to or (for future sales only) to use XIPC; provided
further that the Purchased Assets include the right to continue using XIPC for
and to service and support Visual Flow's installed base of customers and only in
the Visual Flow applications currently installed or licensed; provided further
that should the Purchaser seek a license to use or resell XIPC, Momentum shall
sell such license to the Purchaser for consideration and on terms that are no
less favorable than the then current licensing fees and terms in effect for
XIPC.

         Section 2.2. Purchase Price. In consideration for the Purchased Assets,
the Purchaser hereby conveys to Visual Flow and Momentum the GH Shares and the
Momentum Option, and the Purchaser hereby assumes the Assumed Liabilities.
NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED HEREIN,
THE PURCHASER IS NOT ASSUMING, NOR SHALL IT IN ANY MANNER BECOME LIABLE FOR, ANY
OTHER LIABILITIES OR OBLIGATIONS OF ANY KIND OR NATURE WHATSOEVER OF VISUAL FLOW
OR ITS AFFILIATES, OTHER THAN THE ASSUMED LIABILITIES OR FROM BREACH OF THIS
AGREEMENT.

         "GH Shares" means (as of the date hereof) (i) all shares of the capital
stock of Momentum ("Momentum Stock") that are owned by Gusick or by Harrington,
(ii) the right to receive shares of Momentum Stock, which right was granted to
Gusick and to Harrington pursuant to the ISM Agreement, and (iii) any options
held by Gusick or Harrington to purchase or otherwise acquire shares of Momentum
Stock.

         "Assumed Liabilities" means the $7,500 payable by Visual Flow to Bayer
West Virginia, all performance obligations, liabilities arising from breach of
contract, and product support liabilities directly incurred under customer
support contracts or software sales contracts existing as of the date hereof, or

                                       2
<PAGE>

existing directly as a result of prior activities of ISM, the Visual Flow
division of Momentum, and/or Visual Flow. The Assumed Liabilities also include
obligations incurred by Gusick and Harrington on behalf of Visual Flow, or
obligations incurred by Lee Zhong and Mike Weber as employees of Visual Flow,
acting in the ordinary course of Visual Flow's business, and any deferred
compensation obligations of Visual Flow to Gusick and Harrington.

         Section 2.3. Momentum Option. The Purchaser hereby grants to Momentum,
the option to purchase shares of the capital stock of the Purchaser (the
"Momentum Option") as follows:

         (a) At any time after the date hereof and prior to the second
Anniversary Date (unless and until the Momentum Option is terminated earlier),
Momentum shall have the option to (i) purchase from the Purchaser a 20% stake in
the Purchaser (an "Exercise for Stock"), (ii) upon the occurrence of a Sale of
Business Event, receive proceeds (a "SOBE Exercise"), or (iii) perform a GH
Exercise.

         (b) The Momentum Option is not partially exercisable, rather it can
only be exercised in full. Momentum may, in accordance with the procedures set
forth below, extend the Momentum Option for three consecutive Agreement Years
commencing at 5:00 p.m. on the second, third and fourth Anniversary Dates,
respectively, as provided herein; however once lapsed or surrendered, the
Momentum Option may not be extended. Furthermore, in order to exercise or extend
the Momentum Option, Momentum must give to the Purchaser (i) written notice of
Momentum's intent to exercise or extend, as the case may be, and (ii) payment in
full in cash: (X) for extensions, $100,000 per one year extension or (Y) for
exercises, of the amount specified in the table below. For extensions or
exercises of the Momentum Option, such notice and payment must be actually
received by the Purchaser no later than 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the
expiration date (or, if earlier, the termination date) of the Momentum Option.
The following table sets forth the exercise price due if the Momentum Option is
exercised during the Agreement Year(s) listed in the right hand column:

         Date of Exercise                            Option Exercise Price

Agreement Years 1 through 3                          $500,000
Agreement Year 4                                     $750,000
Agreement Year 5                                     $1,000,000

         (c) The type of exercise of the Momentum Option described in this
subparagraph (c) shall be referred to as a "GH Exercise." In the event that
Gusick and Harrington enter into a Deal to sell in aggregate 50% or more of
their combined holdings of the then outstanding capital stock of the Purchaser,
they must provide to Momentum at least 20 days written notice thereof prior to
the consummation of the Deal, provided however, that such notice period shall be
reduced to 10 days if the closing of such Deal is scheduled for less than 20
days from the date on which such potential business arrangement became a Deal.
Momentum shall have the right to elect to sell an amount of the capital stock of
the Purchaser issuable upon exercise of the Momentum Option that is
proportionate to the amount of capital stock of the Purchaser being sold by
Gusick and Harrington, in aggregate. For instance, if there were 800 shares of
the capital stock of the Purchaser outstanding and Gusick and/or Harrington
owned 600 of those shares and entered into an agreement to sell 300 of their
shares, they would notify Momentum of such sale; Momentum would then be entitled
to exercise its option for 200 shares, 100 of which it could sell in such sale.
Momentum would have to do a full Exercise for Stock prior to the consummation of
such sale in order to do a GH Exercise; provided that Momentum can rescind its
exercise if such Deal is not consummated.

         (d) The Momentum Option shall terminate upon the occurrence of a Sale
of Business Event in the following manner. Within 10 Business Days after
entering into a Deal that it believes will qualify as a Sale of Business Event,
the Purchaser shall notify Momentum in writing of such Deal ("Deal Notice").
Momentum shall then have the lesser of (x) until 5:00 p.m. New York City time on



                                       3
<PAGE>

the Consummation Date of such Sale of Business Event (but not less than 10 days
from the receipt of such notification), or (y) 30 calendar days, to decide and
give written notice to the Purchaser of whether Momentum shall do a SOBE
Exercise or an Exercise for Stock.

         If (i) the Sale of Business Event is not consummated during the
Agreement Year in which the Purchaser gave the Deal Notice, (ii) that Deal
Notice was given in Agreement Years 2, 3 or 4, and (iii) Momentum responded with
written notice that it sought to do a SOBE Exercise, then Momentum will be
permitted a one year extension without payment of the extension fee (for that
year) referred to in subparagraph (b) above (the "Free Ride Year"); provided
that by the earlier of (1) 30 days prior to the Consummation Date, or (2) the
third day after Momentum has been notified of a tentative offering price range
(if the Sale of Business Event is a public offering), Momentum must notify the
Purchaser in writing whether it still intends to do a SOBE Exercise or an
Exercise for Stock (in light of the price change that takes effect on the first
day of the Free Ride Year); provided further that, if Momentum switches from a
SOBE Exercise to an Exercise for Stock, it must pay to the Purchaser the
$100,000 extension fee at or before the time that Momentum must give the second
notice referenced in the preceding proviso; provided further that if, pursuant
to a good faith belief that the Sale of Business Event will not be consummated,
the Purchaser has notified Momentum in writing of such occurrence, Momentum
shall have 10 Business Days to decide whether to pay the $100,000 extension fee
(to keep the Momentum Option alive for the remainder of the Free Ride Year) or
surrender the Momentum Option. There shall be no more than one Free Ride Year
per Deal Notice.

         On or prior to 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Consummation Date of
such Sale of Business Event, Momentum shall have exercised (in one of the
manners provided in subsection (a) above) or else surrendered the Momentum
Option. If the Momentum Option shall not have been exercised in accordance with
the provisions hereof by the Consummation Date, it shall automatically terminate
irrevocably and Momentum shall have no further rights thereunder. The exercise
price of the Momentum Option shall be the exercise price in effect (pursuant to
subsection (b) hereof) on the Consummation Date of such Sale of Business Event.

         (e) During the life of the Momentum Option, the Purchaser shall provide
to the permitted holders of the Momentum Option reasonable access to financial
information about the Purchaser and the right to meet with the Purchaser's board
to discuss in reasonable detail potential Sale of Business Events, as reasonably
requested by such holders; provided that, during the 60 day period prior to
expiration of the Momentum Option (or each extension thereof, if any), the
Purchaser shall provide reasonable assistance to enable Momentum to conduct a
due diligence inquiry of the Purchaser; provided that all of the information
obtained by such due diligence inquiry shall be deemed Confidential Information
hereunder and shall only be used by the permitted holders of the Momentum Option
for purposes of evaluating whether or not to exercise the Momentum Option.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event that
Momentum or any transferee of Momentum who is a permitted transferee engages,
directly or indirectly, in the Business at any time during the life of the
Momentum Option: (i) Momentum and/or such permitted transferees shall not be
entitled to receive or review any Confidential Information of the Purchaser;
provided however that such permitted holder of the Momentum Option shall be
entitled to review financial information with customer and supplier names,
specific contract terms, etc. redacted, and to discuss with the Purchaser's
board the general financial condition of the Purchaser and (ii) neither Momentum
nor any permitted transferee of Momentum shall, directly or indirectly, solicit
or interfere with the Person whose offer resulted in a Sale of Business Event
prior to the consummation or the time at which, in the Purchaser's reasonable
judgment, such transaction has been abandoned or terminated.

         (f) Without limiting the general provisions of Section 7.4, Momentum
shall not assign the Momentum Option without the Purchaser's prior written
consent; provided that, 20 calendar days prior to a Change of Control in
Momentum (such period shall be reduced to 10 days if such Change in Control is



                                       4
<PAGE>

scheduled to be consummated prior to the 20th day) at a time when person(s)
controlling Momentum (or the entity acquiring all or substantially all of the
assets of Momentum -- whether in one or more transactions) engage, directly or
indirectly, in the Business, Momentum shall notify the Purchaser in writing of
such event and, upon consummation of that event Momentum shall distribute the
Momentum Option to the then holders of Momentum's Preferred Stock who are (x)
not directly engaged in the Business and who do not own more than 25% of any
class of outstanding securities of any entity which, directly or indirectly,
engages in the Business and (y) were holders of the Preferred Stock of Momentum
as of the date hereof, such distribution shall be in such proportion and for
such consideration as Momentum may determine. Such holders ("permitted
transferees") of Momentum's Preferred Stock receiving a portion of the Momentum
Option shall agree that the action of the holders of more than 50% of the
Momentum Option shall bind all of such holders; provided that, if Momentum is
precluded by Delaware corporate law from distributing the Momentum Option solely
to holders of Momentum's preferred stock, then such distribution shall be made
to such holders of the capital stock of Momentum as Delaware corporate law
requires. A holder of the Momentum Option may transfer all or a portion of its
interest to another holder of a portion of such Momentum Option. The holders or
permitted transferees of the Momentum Option must and can only act as one group.

         (g) for purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall mean as
follows:

         "Agreement Year" means a year commencing on an Anniversary Date and
ending on the day preceding the next Anniversary Date.

         "Anniversary Date" means the anniversary of the date hereof.

         "Change of Control" means the holders of Momentum's voting capital
stock at the date hereof (i) owning in the aggregate at any time thereafter
fifty percent (50%) or less of the outstanding voting stock of Momentum or (ii)
not having the right to elect a majority of Momentum's Board of Directors.

         "Deal" means a bona fide transaction that, in the commercially
reasonable judgment of Gusick and Harrington, is a firm arrangement that is more
likely than not to actually be consummated (in substantially the manner provided
for).

         "Exercise for Stock" means that Momentum pays the then current exercise
price for the Momentum Option in exchange for 20% of the shares of the common
and preferred stock of the Purchaser that would be outstanding immediately after
giving effect to the exercise of the Momentum Option, and the right to
automatically receive, (on an as exercised or as converted basis) for no
additional cash consideration, a number of shares of the stock of the Purchaser
such that Momentum would have 20% of the capital stock of the Purchaser
outstanding after giving effect to Momentum's exercise and to the exercise or
conversion of all of the options, warrants and convertible securities of the
Purchaser outstanding on the date on which Momentum exercised the Momentum
Option; provided that, in light of the reservation for issuance by the Purchaser
of 150,000 shares to be issued pursuant to a qualified and/or nonqualified
employee stock plan (collectively, with a successor thereto or replacement
thereof, the "ESP"), and Momentum's acknowledgment of the Purchaser's need to
obtain qualified employees, Momentum shall exclude from the calculation of 20%
any options issued or granted under the ESP other than those issued or granted
to Gusick and Harrington; provided further that, such ESP options shall vest
over no less than a four year period. For example, if on the date on which
Momentum exercised for stock the Momentum Option, the outstanding shares and
options of the Purchaser were as follows: 400 shares, non-ESP options for an
additional 400 shares, and ESP options for 70 shares (none of which were granted
to Gusick or Harrington), then Momentum would receive 100 shares and the right
to receive an additional 100 shares as (and only if) such non-ESP options are
exercised. However, Momentum cannot at any time, through the exercise of such
options, obtain more than 20% of any class of the outstanding capital stock of
the Purchaser. The Purchaser shall not be required to issue fractional shares



                                       5
<PAGE>

upon exercise of the Momentum Option, instead, the number shall be rounded down
to the next nearest whole number. Following an Exercise for Stock, the Purchaser
shall be prohibited from issuing to Momentum, Gusick, Harrington or any
Affiliate of any of the foregoing, any options exercisable at below the fair
market value determined as of the date of grant; the Purchaser may, however,
subject to the first part of this sentence, grant such options to any employees
eligible to receive grants under the ESP.

         "Sale of Business Event" means the consummation by the Purchaser (the
date of which is hereinafter referred to as the "Consummation Date") of (a) any
public offering of the securities of the Purchaser, (b) any consolidation,
merger or sale of the securities of the Purchaser such that the holders of the
Purchaser's capital stock immediately before such consolidation, merger or sale
will in the aggregate own less than 25% of the outstanding voting stock of the
Purchaser (or any continuing or surviving corporation) immediately after such
consolidation, merger or sale or (c) any bona fide sale, lease, exchange or
other transfer (in one transaction or a series of related transactions) of all
or substantially all of the Purchaser's assets to an entity other than an
Affiliate of the Purchaser.

         "SOBE Exercise" means, upon receipt of Deal Notice, Momentum can elect
to receive proceeds from such event (without payment by Momentum therefor) as
follows: if the Sale of Business Event values the Purchaser (or, in the case of
an asset sale, all of the Purchaser's assets) (excluding minority, illiquidity
or other discounts and control or other premiums) as follows, then Momentum
shall receive the following portion of the actual proceeds from such Sale of
Business Event (which, for purposes of a consolidation or merger shall be the
valuation of Purchaser as an entity immediately prior to the consummation of the
transaction):

 Valuation                          Formula for determining Momentum's Stake
 
$300,000 or less                    Momentum shall receive a 20 day right of
                                    first refusal on the sale, but if it does
                                    not exercise such right, the Momentum Option
                                    shall terminate on the Consummation Date and
                                    Momentum shall not receive any proceeds from
                                    such Sale of Business Event
more than $300,000 and
less than $2.5 million              10% of the proceeds of the Sale of Business
                                    Event
$2.5 million or more                10% of the first $2.5 million of the
                                    proceeds of the Sale of Business Event,
                                    3.35 of the remaining proceeds

To illustrate the above, if IBM buys 90% of the stock of the Purchaser for $1.3
million in cash and $500,000 in IBM stock, that deal values the Purchaser as a
$2 million company and the holders of the Momentum Option would receive 10% of
the actual proceeds, or $130,000 in cash and $50,000 worth of IBM stock.

         Section 2.4. Allocation of the Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall
be allocated as set forth in the Form 8594s attached hereto.

                                   ARTICLE III

         Representations and Warranties of Visual Flow and Momentum

Encumbrances, other than the Assumed Liabilities.

         Section 3.12. Contracts. (a) There are no contracts, agreements,
leases, commitments, instruments, plans, permits or licenses, whether written or

                                       8
<PAGE>

Momentum) is a party or is otherwise bound on or prior to April 1, 1996, that in
any way restrict or prohibit Visual Flow from freely engaging in the Business in
any geographic area, or is outstanding and involves the payment by Visual Flow
