                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
CVSI, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of CVSI, Inc.,
as of June 30, 1998 and 1999, and the related consolidated statements of
operations, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended.
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of CVSI,
Inc., as of June 30, 1998 and 1999, and the consolidated results of its
operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

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


1. ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS:

CVSI, Inc. (the Company), provides services that include system hardware and
operating system service/maintenance of proprietary systems of third-party
vendors, network design and implementation, systems integration, hardware and
software product resale, and database support and consulting for enterprise-wide
systems and networks. On May 27, 1997, the Company was incorporated in the state
of Delaware as a wholly owned subsidiary of Computervision Corporation (the
Parent). On July 11, 1997, the Company amended its articles of incorporation to
recapitalize the Company with 10,000 shares of Class A voting common stock and
15,000 shares of Class B nonvoting common stock.

On July 18, 1997, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase the assets
of the Open Service Solutions business unit from the Parent (the Asset Purchase
Agreement) for $35,000. The Company financed the acquisition through a note
payable to a bank of $25,000 and a note payable to the Parent of $10,000. Since
the parties to the transaction were under common control, the assets acquired
were accounted for on a carryover historical cost basis. The excess purchase
price over the carryover basis in the assets acquired in the amount of $26,201
has been recorded as a dividend to the Parent. Additionally this amount was
subsequently adjusted to $25,567 to properly reflect an adjustment to the net
assets acquired.

Simultaneously with the above transaction, MD Sass Investor Services, Inc.
(Sass), which owned 17 percent of the Parent at the time of the transaction,
acquired, through CVSI Acquisition Co., LLC (a wholly owned subsidiary of
Resurgence Asset Management, LLC), 76 percent of the Company's outstanding Class
A voting common stock for $7,600. Additionally, Sass entered into an option
agreement with the Parent that entitled Sass to purchase up to 1,000 additional
shares of Class A common stock from the Parent for $1.00 per share (the Class A
Option Agreement) which was exercised on June 30, 1998.

In connection with the above transactions, the Parent granted the Company an
option (the Sun Option) to purchase, at $.0001 per share, some or all of the
outstanding Class A common stock held by the Parent if the Company does not
achieve certain specified levels of product revenues and operating margins from
referrals initiated by the Parent (Targeted Referral Revenue).

During January 1998, the Parent was acquired by Parametric Technology
Corporation (PTC).

On June 30, 1998, the Company entered into an agreement with
PTC to exchange certain intangibles that were acquired as part of the Asset
Purchase Agreement with the Parent in return for 15,000 shares of Class B
nonvoting common stock and the cancellation of the $10,000 note payable to the
Parent plus accrued interest of $1,002. The net gain on the exchange of the note
of $11,002, which resulted in part from the exchanged intangibles having an
historical cost of zero on the Company's books, had been recorded directly to
equity in the period ended June 30, 1998, consistent with the original
transaction, net of costs associated with the exit of certain activities
associated with the intangibles of $400. Subsequent to this transaction, Sass
owned approximately 86 percent of the Company.

As part of the agreement with PTC, the Company amended the terms of the Sun
Option agreement to reset the amount of Targeted Referral Revenue (the Amended
Sun Option Agreement). Additionally, under the Amended Sun Option Agreement, the
Company received $375 as a result of certain levels of referral revenue not
being achieved in the first quarter of fiscal 1999. Thereafter, failure to
achieve referral revenue levels would result in the transfer of Company stock
from PTC to the Company. In addition, as a result of PTC not achieving certain
Targeted Referral Revenue levels in the year ended June 30, 1999, the Company
received 800 shares from PTC in August 1999.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and
its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.


                                      F-7

                                   CVSI, INC.
              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
                             JUNE 30, 1998 AND 1999

                (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT FOR PER SHARE INFORMATION)
                =================================================


MANAGEMENT ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue is recognized as the related services are provided or upon shipment of
the product. Deferred revenue consists primarily of unearned revenue on service
contracts. Substantially all of the deferred revenue is expected to be
recognized within one year.

TRANSLATION OF FOREIGN CURRENCIES

Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S.
dollars at the period-end exchange rates, while equity accounts are
translated at historical rates. Revenues and expenses are translated at the
average exchange rates during the period. The resultant translation
adjustment is reflected as a separate component of stockholders' deficit.
During the period ended June 30, 1998 and the year ended June 30,1999, the
Company incurred a net foreign exchange loss of $1,321 and a net foreign
exchange gain of $356, respectively, primarily resulting from intercompany
loans to foreign subsidiaries and U.S. dollar-denominated debt at the foreign
subsidiaries. This amount has been recorded in the consolidated statement of
operations. As of June 30, 1998 and 1999, the Company had not entered into any
foreign currency contracts to hedge this exposure.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in banks and short-term interest-bearing
instruments purchased with remaining maturities of three months or less. The
June 30, 1998 balance includes approximately $645 of restricted cash. The
restrictions pertain primarily to lease deposits and customer contract
deposits.

CREDIT RISK

The Company's financial instruments that are exposed to credit risk consist
primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company
believes it has mitigated the risk related to cash and cash equivalents by
maintaining its accounts in major financial institutions. For accounts
receivable, the Company does not have any significant exposure with any
individual customers, and it closely monitors the exposure for credit losses.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

The Company provides for depreciation and amortization by charges to operations
on the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives as follows:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>

                                                USEFUL
                                              ------------
                                                LIVES
<S>                                           <C>

Equipment and other                           2 to 5 years

</TABLE>

Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. When property and
equipment are sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset cost and accumulated
depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss, if
any, is included in the results of operations.

INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." This
statement determines deferred income taxes based on the estimated future income
tax effects of differences between the financial statement and tax bases of
assets and liabilities based on the provisions of enacted tax laws. In
estimating future tax consequences, SFAS No. 109 generally takes into account
all expected future events other than enactments of changes in tax laws or
rates. Deferred tax assets are recognized, net of any valuation allowance, for
deductible temporary differences and operating loss and credit carryforwards, if
any.

                (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT FOR PER SHARE INFORMATION)
                =================================================


RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

START-UP COSTS

In April 1998, the AICPA issued Statement of Position (SOP) 98-5, "Reporting on
the Costs of Start-Up Activities." SOP 98-5 provides guidance on the financial
reporting of start-up and organization costs and requires that such costs be
expensed as incurred. SOP 98-5 is effective for the Company's fiscal year
beginning July 1, 1999. This SOP could result in certain costs previously
capitalized by the Company to be written off in the fiscal 2000 financial
statements. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this SOP, and
adjustments will be reported in the fiscal 2000 financial statements as the
cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle, as required by SOP 98-5.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Effective July 1, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income." Under SFAS 130, comprehensive income includes net income
plus certain terms designated as "other comprehensive income." For the Company,
other comprehensive income is composed entirely of foreign currency translation
adjustments. SFAS 130 requires the Company to classify items of other
comprehensive income by their nature in the consolidated financial statements
and to display the accumulated balance of other comprehensive income separately
from retained earnings in the consolidated balance sheet. The Company has
chosen to present other comprehensive income items in the accompanying
consolidated statement of stockholders' deficit and display the accumulated
balances as foreign currency translation adjustment in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheets.

UNAUDITED FIRST QUARTER INFORMATION

The unaudited financial statements as of and for the three month periods ended
September 30, 1998 and 1999 reflect, in the opinion of management, all
adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to
fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows
as of and for the periods presented. The results for the interim periods
presented are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the
full year.

3. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The fair value of all financial instruments of the Company, which consists
primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, debt, and interest
rate caps approximates their carrying values as of June 30, 1998 and 1999,
due to the relatively short maturities of these instruments.

4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company conducts its operations primarily in leased facilities under
operating lease arrangements expiring on various dates through 2004. Many of the
facility leases are with PTC.

Future minimum lease payments under capital and operating leases with initial
terms of one year or more are as follows:

</TABLE>


Total rent expense for the Company for the years ended June 30, 1998 and 1999,
was $2,354 and $3,323 respectively.

LITIGATION

The Company is periodically a party to disputes arising from normal business
activities. In the opinion of management, resolution of these matters will not
have a material adverse effect upon the financial position or future operating
results of the Company, and adequate provision for any potential losses has been
made in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

MANAGEMENT RETENTION AGREEMENTS

In December 1998, the Company entered into Management Retention Agreements (the
"Agreements") with nine members of the management team. These Agreements were
put in place to provide certain severance benefits to the executive level
management team should there be a change in control of the Company, so as to
encourage continued attention and dedication to the Company in the face of a
potential change in control. These Agreements extend through December 31, 2000,
with two automatic one-year renewals. Under the terms of these Agreements, if an
employee is terminated without cause within 12 months of a change in control, he
or she is eligible to receive severance compensation equal to one year's worth
of salary and bonus and all life, dental, and group health insurance benefits
for a period of one year from the date of termination.

EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS

The Company entered into employment contracts with two key executives. Upon
closure of the Company's purchase by 4 Front Technologies Inc. (see Note 12) the
Company paid these executives a total of $1,560.

5. DEBT:

Debt at June 30, 1999, consisted of the following:

NOTES PAYABLE TO BANK

Notes payable to bank at June 30, 1998 and 1999, consisted of borrowings by
the Company and its international subsidiaries under a term loan agreement
for an original aggregate principal amount of $25,000 with Bank Boston, N.A.
Borrowings under this term loan agreement are subject to interest either at
the base rate plus 1.50 percent or at LIBOR (4.92 percent at June 30, 1999)
plus 2.75 percent. The base rate of (5.72% and 7.75% at June 30, 1998 and
1999) is the higher of the annual rate announced from time to time by Bank
Boston, N.A. or 1/2 percent above the federal funds effective rate. The notes
payable are secured by substantially all of the Company's assets.

In connection with the notes payable to the bank, the Company entered into an
interest rate cap agreement with a notional amount of $15,000. The interest rate
cap agreement will pay the Company the difference between LIBOR and 7.5 percent
if LIBOR exceeds the cap levels at each quarterly reset date. If LIBOR remains
below 7.5 percent, no payment is made to the Company. The transaction fee of $70
for the interest cap agreement is being amortized over the term of the
agreement.

The notes payable to the bank require the Company to satisfy certain
financial and other covenants. As of June 30, 1998 and 1999, the Company was
not in compliance with certain of these covenants. Because of these covenant
violations, all amounts under the notes payable to the bank are due on demand
and as a result are classified as current at June 30, 1999. Subsequent to
June 30, 1999, all such balances were repaid as part of the sale of the
Australian and Singapore subsidiaries and the sale of the Company to 4Front
(see Notes 9 and 13).

REVOLVING CREDIT ARRANGEMENTS

On July 18, 1997, the Company entered into a five-year short-term credit
facility (the Revolving Credit Facility) with Bank Boston, N.A. for a base
amount of $2,500. The Revolving Credit Facility accrues interest at either a
base rate plus 3 percent or at LIBOR plus 3 percent. During fiscal year 1999,
the outstanding balance of $2,150 was repaid in full, and this revolving credit
arrangement was terminated.

                (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT FOR PER SHARE INFORMATION)
                =================================================


SFAS No. 109 requires the recognition of income tax benefits for loss
carryforwards, credit carryforwards, and certain temporary differences. The
majority of the deferred tax assets that have been included in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheet have been reduced by a valuation allowance, as they
do not satisfy the recognition criteria set forth in SFAS No. 109. The tax basis
in excess of book is primarily a result of the Company recognizing a step-up in
the tax basis of assets acquired from the Parent, which were recognized at
carryover basis for financial reporting purposes.

As of June 30, 1999, the Company had available, subject to review and possible
adjustment, federal and foreign net operating loss carryforwards of
approximately $4,970 and $3,471, which are subject to expiration starting in
2003. The Internal Revenue Code (the IRC) contains provisions that may limit the
federal net operating loss carryforward available to be used in any given year
in the event of significant changes in ownership interest.

7. EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT PLANS:

The Company maintains various employee retirement plans and salary continuation
programs for the benefit of the Company's personnel, as discussed below. The
Company does not, however, maintain any post-employment benefit plans.

EMPLOYEE 401(K) SAVINGS PLAN

The Company provides pension benefits to eligible U.S. employees through a
401(k) plan sponsored by the Company, which is intended to qualify under Section
401(k) of the IRC. The Plan covers substantially all U.S. employees, and each
eligible employee may elect to contribute to the Plan, subject to certain
limitations. The Company makes a matching contribution up to the first 6 percent
of total employee compensation, based on the number of years of service to the
Company. The Company's employer matching contribution to this 401(k) plan
approximated $284 and $278 for the year ended June 30, 1998 and 1999.

INTERNATIONAL DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLANS

In most other countries, the Company has adopted defined contribution plans.
Contributions vary by country, ranging from 5 to 22 percent of annual
compensation. The expense for the period ended June 30, 1998 and 1999, for
the international defined contribution plans was $1,008 and $1,351. The
Company maintains defined benefit plans for its subsidiaries in Japan, the
Netherlands, and Germany. The Company's funding policy is to contribute
annually the minimum amount required by the laws of the governing country.

In February 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) issued
SFAS No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other Post-retirement
Benefits," to revise and clarify the financial statement disclosures required
for pensions and other post-retirement benefit plans. The Company has adopted
SFAS No. 132 for its consolidated financial statements as of, and for the year
ended, June 30, 1999. The required disclosures are presented below. The
Company did not complete the acquisition of the Assets in Japan until June
30, 1998. Therefore the required disclosures are included below only for the
year ended June 30, 1999.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information gives
effect to the acquisition by 4Front Technologies, Inc. of CVSI, Inc. in a
business combination accounted for by the purchase method of accounting. The
unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is derived from the
historical financial statements of 4Front Technologies, Inc. and CVSI, Inc.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the nine
months ended October 31, 1999, and for the years ended January 31, 1999 and 1998
give effect to the acquisition of CVSI, Inc. as if it had occurred at the
beginning of the indicated period. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined
balance sheets for October 31, 1999, and January 31, 1999 and 1998 give effect
to the acquisition of CVSI, Inc. as if it had occurred on the last day of the
indicated period.

The pro forma adjustments are based on certain assumptions that 4Front
Technologies, Inc.'s management believes are reasonable under the circumstances
and do not reflect any potential cost savings. The pro forma information is not
necessarily indicative of the results that would have been reported if such
events had occurred on the date specified nor is it intended to project 4Front
Technologies, Inc.'s results of operations or financial position for any future
period or date. The information set forth should be read in conjunction with
4Front Technologies, Inc.'s audited financial statements for the year ended
