                             MANUGISTICS GROUP, INC.
        NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

                                  MAY 31, 2000

1.     BASIS OF PRESENTATION

              The  accompanying   unaudited  condensed   consolidated  financial
         statements  of  Manugistics  Group,  Inc.  ("the  Company")  have  been
         prepared in accordance with generally  accepted  accounting  principles
         for interim  reporting and in accordance  with the  instructions to the
         Quarterly  Report  on Form  10-Q  and  Article  10 of  Regulation  S-X.
         Accordingly,  they do not  include  all of the  information  and  notes
         required by  generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for  complete
         financial  statements.  In the opinion of management,  all  adjustments
         (consisting only of normal,  recurring adjustments) which are necessary
         for a fair  presentation  of the  unaudited  results  for  the  interim
         periods presented have been included. The results of operations for the
         period presented  herein are not necessarily  indicative of the results
         of operations  for the entire  fiscal year,  which ends on February 28,
         2001.

              These condensed  consolidated  financial statements should be read
         in conjunction with the financial  statements and notes thereto for the
         fiscal year ended  February 29, 2000  included in the Annual  Report on
         Form 10-K of the  Company for that year filed with the  Securities  and
         Exchange Commission.

2.     NET (LOSS) INCOME PER SHARE

              Basic  (loss)  income  per share is  computed  using the  weighted
         average  number of shares of common stock  outstanding.  Diluted (loss)
         income  per share is  computed  using the  weighted  average  number of
         shares of common stock and, when  dilutive,  common  equivalent  shares
         from options to purchase  common stock using the treasury stock method.
         Common   equivalent   shares  from  options  were   excluded  from  the
         calculation  of diluted loss per share for the three month period ended
         May 31, 2000,  as  including  them would have been  anti-dilutive.  The
         following  table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted (loss)
         income per share for the three  month  periods  ended May 31,  2000 and
         1999 (amounts in thousands, except per share amounts):

3.      COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

               The  Company  is  involved  from  time to time  in  disputes  and
         litigation  in the ordinary  course of  business.  The Company does not
         believe  that the outcome of any pending  disputes or  litigation  will
         have a material effect on the Company's  business,  operating  results,
         financial  condition or cash flows.  However,  the ultimate  outcome of
         these  proceedings,   as  with  litigation  generally,   is  inherently
         uncertain  and it is  possible  that  these  matters  may  be  resolved
         adversely to the Company.  The adverse resolution of any one or more of
         these matters could have a material  effect on the Company's  business,
         operating results, financial condition or cash flows.

               The Company has previously  reported its legal  proceedings  with
         Information  Resources,  Inc.  ("IRI")  arising from the acquisition of
         certain  assets.  A dispute over revenue streams that IRI alleges it is
         entitled to is being  arbitrated.  IRI seeks a total of  $15,930,563 in
         damages.  The Company  contends  that the  conditions  to these amounts
         becoming due have not been  satisfied  and that no amounts are due IRI,
         because,  among other  reasons,  of a failure of  consideration  in the
         overall  transaction.  A  related  claim  concerning  the  breach

                                       6
<PAGE>


         of  a  separate  Non-Competition  and  Non-Solicitation   Agreement  is
         proceeding in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois. There were no
         significant developments in these matters during this quarter.

4.      COMPREHENSIVE (LOSS) INCOME

               In fiscal  1999,  the  Company  adopted  Statement  of  Financial
         Accounting Standards No. 130 ("SFAS No. 130"), "Reporting Comprehensive
         Income."  SFAS No. 130  establishes  standards  for the  reporting  and
         display  of  comprehensive  (loss)  income  and its  components  in the
         Company's financial statements.  SFAS No. 130 requires unrealized gains
         and losses on the Company's  available-for-sale  securities and foreign
         currency translation  adjustments to be included in other comprehensive
         (loss) income. The following table sets forth the comprehensive  (loss)
         income for the three month  periods ended May 31, 2000 and 1999 (dollar
         amounts in thousands):

                                                     Three months ended
                                                           May 31,

                                                      =======    =======

5.       RESTRUCTURING ACCRUAL

                During the second  half of fiscal  1999,  the  Company  recorded
         restructuring  and  unusual  charges  primarily   associated  with  the
         implementation   of  the  Company's   restructuring   plan.  This  plan
         reorganized  the  Company to focus on its core  business  of  providing
         supply chain  solutions to companies with dynamic  supply  chains.  The
         table below  presents the activity for the first quarter of fiscal 2001
         relating to the restructuring charge reserves established in the second
         half of fiscal 1999.  The Company  believes that the reserves as of May
         31, 2000 are  adequate and that no further  revisions of estimates  are
         necessary at this time.  The following  table sets forth  restructuring
         activity for the three month period ended May 31, 2000 (dollar  amounts
         in thousands):




                                       Beginning        Cash         Ending

                                        =======       =======        =======

6.       NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

                In December, 1999 the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC")
         issued Staff  Accounting  Bulletin No. 101 ("SAB 101"),  which provides
         the  SEC  staff's  views  in  applying  generally  accepted  accounting
         principles to selected revenue  recognition  issues. The implementation
         date of SAB 101 is no later  than the fourth  fiscal  quarter of fiscal
         years  beginning  after December 15, 1999.  Management does not believe
         the  adoption of SAB 101 will have a material  effect on the  Company's
         consolidated  financial  position  or results of  operations  in fiscal
         2001.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION  AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL  CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

         Manugistics  Group,  Inc. is a leading  global  provider of intelligent
supply chain  optimization  solutions  for  enterprises  and evolving  eBusiness
trading  networks.  Our  solutions,  which include client  assessment,  software
products,  consulting  services for implementation and solution support,  can be
optimized to the supply chain  requirements of companies.  Our solutions provide
our clients with the business  intelligence  to  participate in various forms of
trading  relationships,  from  traditional  linear  supply  chains to  eBusiness
trading  networks.  Our  broad  suite  of  solutions  can help  companies  power
profitable growth,  increase  revenues,  lower overall costs and improve capital
allocation  through more  effective  operational  decisions.  Other  operational
benefits of  implementing  our  solutions  can include  greater speed to market,
strengthened customer service, improved relationships among trading partners and
increased  inventory  turns  within and across our  clients'  supply  chains and
eBusiness trading networks.

         Building on our supply chain solution  expertise,  we were an innovator
in  trading  partner  collaboration  with  our  first  Internet-ready   products
commercially  available in late 1997. These initial products were focused on the
prediction  of demand  and  sourcing  of supply  between an  enterprise  and its
trading partners  ("one-to-many").  Our expanded solutions currently address new
complexities   and  increased   operational   challenges   as  trading   partner
collaboration  has evolved to include multiple  enterprises and trading partners
("many-to-many").  These  solutions are enabled by our  WebWORKSTM  architecture
with advanced integration to disparate systems through our WebConnectTM product.
We  believe  that our  solutions  address  the  supply  chain  requirements  for
one-to-many and many-to-many trading networks.  Our technology  initiatives will
continue to focus on the changing needs of clients and evolving market dynamics.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

REVENUES:

         Our revenues consist of software license fees,  consulting revenues and
solution  support  revenues.  Software  license  revenues  are  recognized  upon
execution of a software  license  agreement,  provided that the software product
has been shipped, there are no uncertainties surrounding product acceptance, the
license fees are fixed and determinable,  collection is considered  probable and
no significant  production,  modification  or  customization  of the software is
required,  in  accordance  with  the  American  Institute  of  Certified  Public
Accountants'  ("AICPA")  Statement of Position ("SOP") 97-2,  "Software  Revenue
Recognition,"  and  SOP  98-9,  "Modification  of  SOP  97-2,  Software  Revenue
Recognition with respect to Certain Transactions," for fiscal periods subsequent
to December 31, 1997, as well as, the Securities and Exchange Commission's Staff
Accounting  Bulletin  No. 101.  Fees are  allocated  to the various  elements of
software  license  agreements  based on our  historical  fair value  experience.
Consulting  revenues are  recognized  as the services  are  performed.  Solution
support  revenues are recognized  ratably over the support period defined in the
software  license  agreement.  The following  table sets forth  revenues for the
three month periods ended May 31, 2000 and 1999 (dollar amounts in thousands):

         License fees.  Our license fees consist  primarily of software  license
revenues from direct sales. We also earn license fees through indirect channels,
primarily through complementary software vendors, consulting firms, distributors
and systems integrators.

         License fees increased for the three months ended May 31, 2000 compared
to the comparable period in 1999, primarily because we fielded a larger and more
effective direct sales organization  during the three month period ended May 31,
2000. We also benefited  from an improved  market  environment  for supply chain
optimization solutions and the developing demand for eBusiness trading networks.
In addition,  we experienced increases in both the number of transactions closed
and average  size of  transactions  during the three month  period ended May 31,
2000.

         Consulting, solution support and other services ("Services").  Services
revenues primarily consist of fees from software implementation  engagements and
the related training,  consulting and solution support  revenues.  Revenues from
software  implementation,  training and  consulting  engagements  are  primarily
recognized  as the services are performed and are billed on a time and materials
basis.  The software  implementation  process  typically  requires two to twelve
months to complete, depending on the complexity, scope of the project and client
resources  available.  Solution support revenues are recognized ratably over the
solution  support term defined in the  contract.  Payments for solution  support
fees are typically made annually in advance of the support period.

         Consulting and other services revenue decreased  slightly for the three
months ended May 31, 2000 compared to the comparable  period in 1999,  primarily
due to  differences  in the  timing  of  implementation  services  provided  for
software licensed in prior periods.

         Solution  support  revenues  increased  following  the  increase in the
number of clients  that have  licensed  our  software  products  and  entered or
renewed annual solution  support  contracts.  Solution  support revenues tend to
track software  license fee  transactions  in prior  periods.  In the past three
fiscal years,  a high  percentage of customers with  maintenance  contracts have
renewed these  contracts.  There can be no assurance  that this level of renewal
will continue in the future.  See "Factors  That May Affect Future  Results" and
"Forward-Looking Statements."

         Cost of license fees.  Cost of license fees consists of amortization of
capitalized software development costs, cost of goods and other expenses,  which
includes  royalty fees associated with  third-party  software  included with our
licensed   software  and  amortization  of  goodwill   associated  with  certain
acquisitions.  Capitalized  software development costs and acquired research and
development  costs are  amortized  at the greater of the amount  computed  using
either the straight-line method over the estimated economic life of the product,
commencing with the date the product is first available for general release,  or
the ratio  that  current  gross  revenues  from the  product  bears to the total
current and anticipated  future gross revenues.  Generally,  an economic life of
two to five  years  is  assigned  to  capitalized  software  development  costs.
Goodwill  is  amortized  over  five  years.   The  following  table  sets  forth
amortization of capitalized  software development costs, cost of goods and other
and cost of license fees for the three month periods ended May 31, 2000 and 1999
(dollar amounts in thousands):

                                                   Three months ended May 31,

    Amortization of capitalized software
       development costs                        $ 2,628      44.3%      $ 1,821
       Percentage of license fees                  10.1%                   13.9%
    Cost of goods and other                       2,629     153.8%        1,036
       Percentage of license fees                  10.1%                    7.9%
                                                -------                 -------
    Cost of license fees                        $ 5,257      84.0%      $ 2,857
       Percentage of license fees                  20.2%                   21.8%

         Cost of license fees  increased for the three months ended May 31, 2000
compared to the comparable period in 1999,  primarily due to both an increase in
amortization of previously  capitalized software development costs and increases
in the amount of royalties  paid to third parties as a result of the  particular
mix of products licensed in the quarter.

         Cost of  consulting,  solution  support  and  other  services.  Cost of
consulting, solution support and other services increased slightly for the three
months ended May 31, 2000 compared to the comparable  period in 1999,  primarily
due to an increase in the number of solution support staff.

         Sales and marketing.  Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of
personnel costs,  commissions,  promotional  events and  advertising.  Sales and
marketing expenses increased for the three months ended May 31, 2000 compared to
the  comparable  period  in  1999,  primarily  due to  increased  promotion  and
advertising,  increased sales and marketing headcount and increased  commissions
due to increased software license fees.

         Product  development.  We record  product  development  expenses net of
capitalized   software   development   costs  for  products  that  have  reached
technological  feasibility in accordance with Statement of Financial  Accounting
Standards  No. 86,  "Accounting  for the Costs of Computer  Software to be Sold,
Leased,  or  Otherwise   Marketed."  The  following  table  sets  forth  product
development  costs  for the three  month  periods  ended  May 31,  2000 and 1999
(dollar amounts in thousands):

        Product development expenses              $ 7,770     11.1%    $ 6,994
           Percentage of total revenues              15.4%                17.8%


         Gross and net  product  development  expenses  increased  for the three
month  period  ended May 31,  2000  compared to the  comparable  period in 1999,
primarily due to the increase of product development headcount during the second
half of fiscal year 2000 and the first quarter of fiscal year 2001.

         General and administrative. General and administrative expenses consist
primarily of personnel costs,  infrastructure expenses and the fees and expenses
associated   with   legal,   accounting   and  other   functions.   General  and
administrative expenses increased for the three month period ended May 31, 2000,
compared to the  comparable  period in 1999,  primarily  due to the  increase in
headcount  during the second half of fiscal  year 2000 and the first  quarter of
fiscal year 2001.

OTHER INCOME - NET:

         The following table sets forth other income for the three month periods
ended May 31, 2000 and 1999 (dollar amounts in thousands):

                                                 Three months ended May 31,

                                                 ----      ------      ----

          Other income                           $ 283     (20.7%)     $ 357
             Percentage of total revenues          0.6%                  0.9%


         Other income  includes  interest  income from  short-term  investments,
interest expense from borrowings,  foreign currency exchange gains or losses and
other gains or losses. Other income decreased for the three months ended May 31,
2000  compared to the  comparable  period in 1999,  primarily  due to  decreased
interest  earned as a result of our  investment  balances  being reduced to fund
operating  and investing  activities  during the second half of fiscal year 2000
and the first quarter of fiscal year 2001.

BENEFIT FOR INCOME TAXES:

         The  following  table sets forth income tax benefit for the three month
periods ended May 31, 2000 and 1999 (dollar amounts in thousands):

          The income tax  benefit  for the three  months  ended May 31, 2000 was
approximately  $733  thousand.  The  quarterly  tax  benefit for the three month
period ended May 31, 2000 relates to the current  quarter net loss multiplied by
the expected annual income tax rate of approximately 38.9%.

NET (LOSS) INCOME AND NET (LOSS) INCOME PER SHARE:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:

         The following  table sets forth  liquidity and capital  resources as of
May 31, 2000 and February 29, 2000 (amounts in thousands):


                              As of                                  As of
                           May 31, 2000           Change      February 29, 2000
                           ------------           ------      -----------------

Working capital              $ 36,344             (1.3%)           $ 36,831


         We have historically financed our growth primarily with funds generated
from  operations,  proceeds  from  offerings  of  capital  stock and to a lesser
extent,  short-term  borrowings under a revolving  credit  facility.  The slight
decrease in working  capital at May 31,  2000 as  compared to February  29, 2000
primarily  resulted from a decrease in cash and cash equivalents  which had been
used to fund operations.

         Operating  activities used cash of  approximately  $5.0 million for the
three months ended May 31, 2000,  primarily  because the net loss for the period
and the net change in the accounts receivable and restructuring accrual balances
were only partially offset by the change in non-cash  operating  items,  such as
depreciation and amortization.

         Investing  activities used cash of  approximately  $6.7 million for the
three  months  ended May 31,  2000,  primarily  consisting  of  investments  and
purchases of marketable  securities,  the capitalization of software development
costs and the purchase of fixed assets and software licenses.

         Financing  activities  provided cash of approximately  $1.5 million for
the three months ended May 31, 2000,  primarily  consisting of proceeds from the
exercise of employee stock options and purchases of our common stock through our
employee stock purchase plan.

         We believe that our allowance for doubtful  accounts as of May 31, 2000
is adequate to cover any  forseeable  difficulties  with the  collection  of our
accounts  receivable  balance.  However,  a significant  portion of our accounts
receivable  are a result of the  sales of large  software  licenses.  Therefore,
there can be no  assurance  that the  allowance  will be  adequate  to cover any
receivables that are later deemed to be uncollectible.

         We have a one-year committed unsecured revolving credit facility with a
commercial bank. The current  agreement will expire in September of 2000, unless
renewed.  Under its terms,  we may request cash  advances,  letters of credit or
both in an aggregate  amount of up to $20 million.  We may make borrowings under
the  facility  for  short-term  working  capital  purposes or for  acquisitions.
(Acquisition-related borrowings are limited to $7.5 million per acquisition.) As
of May 31,  2000,  $6.0  million  was  outstanding  under the  revolving  credit
facility.  In June 2000,  we repaid all of the $6.0 million  outstanding  on the
revolving credit facility.

                                       12
<PAGE>

         We believe that our existing cash balances and  marketable  securities,
funds generated from operations and amounts available under our revolving credit
facility  will be  sufficient  to meet our  anticipated  liquidity  and  working
capital  requirements  in the near term. In light of our  operating  results for
fiscal  2000  and the  first  three  months  of  fiscal  2001,  the  cost of any
additional  funds that we could  obtain  might be greater than the cost of funds
available to us under our existing revolving credit facility.  In the event that
we  require  additional   financing  and  are  unable  to  obtain  it  on  terms
satisfactory to us, our liquidity, results of operations and financial condition
may be materially  adversely affected.  We believe that inflation did not have a
material effect on our results of operations in the three month period ended May
31, 2000.

         Certain information regarding commitments and contingencies,  including
pending  litigation,  which  may have an  adverse  impact on our  liquidity  and
financial  condition is set forth below under  "Factors  That May Affect  Future
Results" and under "Legal Proceedings" in Part II of this Quarterly Report.

FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

         In addition to the other  information in this Quarterly  Report on Form
10-Q, the following  factors and those previously  reported should be considered
in evaluating us and our business. Our operating results have varied in the past
and might vary  significantly  in the future because of factors such as domestic
and international business conditions, the timely availability and acceptance of
our  products,  technological  change,  the effect of  competitive  products and
pricing,  the effects of marketing  pronouncements  by  competitors or potential
competitors,  changes in our strategy, the mix of direct and indirect sales, the
effectiveness  of our sales and  marketing  organization,  changes in  operating
expenses,  personnel  changes and foreign currency  exchange rate  fluctuations.
Furthermore, clients may defer or cancel their purchases of our products if they
experience a downturn in their business or if there is a downturn in the general
economy.  For a more  thorough  discussion  of these and other  factors that may
affect our business and future  results,  see the  discussion  under the caption
"Factors That May Affect Future Results" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed
for the year ended February 29, 2000.

Stock Option Repricing

     In  response  to the poor  performance  of our stock  price,  we offered to
reprice employee stock options,  other than those held by our executive officers
or directors,  effective  January 29, 1999, to bolster employee  retention.  The
effect of this  repricing  resulted in  approximately  1.52 million shares being
repriced and the four-year  vesting period starting over. The repricing may have
a material adverse impact on future financial performance based on the amendment
to the Accounting  Principals Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued
to Employees," which requires us to record compensation  expense associated with
the change in the price of these options.

forward-looking  statements.  In order  to  comply  with  the  terms of the safe
harbor,  we note that a variety of factors  could  cause our actual  results and
experience  to  differ   materially  from  the  anticipated   results  or  other
expectations  expressed  in our  forward-looking  statements  in this  Quarterly
Report or elsewhere.  The risks and uncertainties  that may affect our business,
operating  results or financial  condition  include  those set forth above under
"Factors That May Affect Future Results" and the following:

         Revenues  for any  period  depend  on the  number,  size and  timing of
license agreements. The number, size and timing of license agreements depends in
part on our ability to hire and  thereafter  to train,  integrate and deploy our
sales force effectively.  The size and timing of license agreements is difficult
to forecast  because  software  sales  cycles are  affected by the nature of the
transactions,  including  the breadth of the  solution  to be  licensed  and the
organizational  and geographic scope of the licenses.  In addition,  the number,
size and timing of license  agreements also may be affected by certain  external
factors  such  as  general  domestic  and  international  business  or  economic
conditions,  including  the  effects of such  conditions  on our  customers  and
prospects,  alliance partners or competitors'  actions. A small variation in the
timing of  software  licensing  transactions,  particularly  near the end of any
quarter or year, can cause  significant  variations in software  product license
revenues in any period.

         We believe that the market for supply chain planning software solutions
and eCommerce initiatives continues to expand. However, if market demand for our
products  does not  manifest  itself or grow as rapidly  as we  expect,  revenue
growth,  margins  or both  could be  adversely  affected.  If  competitors  make
acquisitions of other competitors or establish relationships among themselves or
with third  parties to enhance  the  ability of their  products  to address  the
supply chain planning needs of prospects and customers or other software vendors
that have  announced  plans to develop or incorporate  functionality  that could
compete with our products  successfully  develop and market such  functionality,
our revenue growth, margins or both could be adversely affected.

         There can be no assurance that we will be able to attract complementary
software vendors,  consulting firms or other  organizations that will be able to
market our products  effectively or that will be qualified to provide timely and
cost-effective  customer  support and  services.  In  addition,  there can be no
assurance  that  a  sufficient  number  of  organizations  will  continue  their
involvement with us and our products and the loss of current  relationships with
important  organizations  could  materially  adversely  affect  our  results  of
operations.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

         Foreign Currency.  In the three months ended May 31, 2000, we generated
approximately  21% of  our  revenues  outside  the  United  States  and  Canada.
International  sales usually are made by our foreign  subsidiaries  in the local
currencies and the expenses incurred by foreign  subsidiaries are denominated in
the local currencies.

         In certain circumstances, we enter into foreign currency contracts with
banking  institutions  to protect large  foreign  currency  receivables  against
currency  fluctuations.  When the foreign currency receivable is collected,  the
contract is liquidated and the foreign currency  receivable is converted to U.S.
dollars.

         Interest  rates.  We manage our interest  rate risk by  maintaining  an
investment portfolio of available-for-sale  instruments with high credit quality
and relatively short average maturities.  These instruments include, but are not
limited to, commercial paper, money-market  instruments,  bank time deposits and
taxable  and  tax-advantaged   variable  rate  and  fixed  rate  obligations  of
corporations,  municipalities and national, state and local government agencies,
in  accordance  with an  investment  policy  approved by our Board of Directors.
These  instruments  are  denominated in U.S.  dollars.  The fair market value of
securities held at May 31, 2000 was approximately $18.9 million.

         We also hold cash  balances in accounts  with  commercial  banks in the
United States and foreign  countries.  These cash balances  represent  operating
balances  only and are invested in  short-term  time deposits of the local bank.
Such  operating  cash  balances  held at banks  outside  the  United  States are
denominated in the local currency.

         Many of our  investments  carry a degree of  interest  rate risk.  When
interest rates fall, our income from  investments  in  variable-rate  securities
declines.  When interest rates rise, the fair market value of our investments in
fixed-rate  securities  declines.  We attempt to mitigate  interest rate risk by
holding fixed-rate securities to maturity.  However,  should our liquidity needs
force us to sell fixed-rate  securities  prior to maturity,  we may experience a
loss of principal.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

      We  have  previously  reported  our  legal  proceedings  with  Information
Resources,  Inc.  ("IRI")  arising from the  acquisition  of certain  assets.  A
dispute  over  revenue  streams  that IRI  alleges  it is  entitled  to is being
arbitrated.  IRI seeks a total of  $15,930,563  in damages.  We contend that the
conditions  to these  amounts  becoming due have not been  satisfied and that no
amounts are due IRI, because, among other reasons, of a failure of consideration
in the overall transaction.  A related claim concerning the breach of a separate
Non-Competition  and  Non-Solicitation  Agreement is  proceeding  in the Circuit
Court of Cook County,  Illinois. There were no significant developments in these
matters during this quarter.

         As disclosed  in our Quaterly  Report on Form 10-Q for the three months
ended November 30, 1999, we reached an agreement for the settlement of the class
action federal  securities  litigation in which we, our Chairman of the Board of
Directors  (the"Board")  and our former Chief Financial  Officer were defendants
(the  "Defendants").  As reported by us in our Current  Report on Form 8-K dated
August 17, 1999,  the United States  District Court for the District of Maryland
had issued an order dismissing the consolidated  class action complaint  against
the Defendants.  The plaintiffs  then filed an appeal of the ruling.  During the
pendency of the appeal, the parties reached a settlement in principle to resolve
the matter.  By Order dated June 1, 2000, the Fourth Circuit remanded the action
to the  District  Court for  settlement  proceedings.  The parties  subsequently
entered into a definitive  settlement  agreement  subject to the approval of the
Distrcit  Court.  A  hearing  date for the  District  Court's  consideration  of
settlement  approval has not yet been set. The amounts to be paid by  Defendants
pursuant to the settlement are being funded by our insurer and thus  settlement,
if finally consummated on terms substantially the same as those set forth in the
settlement agreement, would not have a material adverse effect on us.

         We are involved  from time to time in disputes and other  litigation in
the  ordinary  course of  business.  We do not  believe  that the outcome of any
pending disputes or litigation  (including matters we have previously  reported)
will  have a  material  adverse  effect  on  our  business,  operating  results,
financial  condition  and cash flows.  However,  the  ultimate  outcome of these
matters,  as  with  litigation  generally,  is  inherently  uncertain  and it is
possible that some of these matters may be resolved adversely to us. The adverse
resolution  of any one or more of these  matters  could have a material  adverse
effect on our business, operating results, financial condition and cash flows.

         Lee had been named to the Board of Directors.
