 COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(a) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT

         Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company's officers and
directors, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the
Company's equity securities, to file reports of ownership and change in
ownership with the SEC and with the National Association of Securities Dealers,
Inc. Officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by SEC
regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all forms they file pursuant
to Section 16(a).

         Based solely on its review of the copies of such forms received by it,
or written representations from certain reporting persons that no Forms 5
disclosing delinquently reported transactions were required for those persons,
the Company believes that, during the year ended March 31, 1996, all filing
requirements applicable to its officers, directors and greater than 10%
beneficial owners were complied with, except for the following: (1) No Form 3
Initial Statement of Beneficial Ownership of Securities was filed by February
10, 1996 for Michael Mooradian. Mr. Mooradian's beneficial ownership of Timeline
Securities has been reported on a Form 5 filed on May 15, 1996. (2) No Form 5
was filed by May 15, 1996 to reflect the termination of Kent Johnson's indirect
ownership of Timeline Securities owned by his former spouse. A Form 5 was filed
on or about June 14, 1996.

ITEM 12. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

         The Company has granted warrants in connection with various loans made
to the Company and personal guarantees of third-party debt incurred by the
Company. The number of shares subject to each such warrant, and the exercise
price of each, was negotiated at the respective times each such warrant was
granted. In August 1993, Mr. Hallman was granted a warrant to purchase 4,125
shares of Common Stock, at an exercise price of $3.64 per share, in connection
with a loan he made to the Company. In July 1994, Messrs. Calahan, Osenbaugh and
Dean were granted warrants to purchase 6,600, 17,325 and 6,600 shares of Common
Stock, respectively, each at an exercise price of $3.64 per share, as
consideration for certain personal guarantees of loans incurred by the Company.

         Mr. Osenbaugh is a 50% shareholder of SoftForce Inc., an Iowa-based
distributor of software which currently employs six persons. The remaining
shares of SoftForce, Inc. are owned by a brother of Mr. Osenbaugh. SoftForce
Inc. distributes Company products pursuant to a standard Company distribution
agreement. The Company believes its distribution agreement with SoftForce Inc.
was made on terms no less favorable to the Company than could have been obtained
from unaffiliated third party distributors.
