                       Report of Independent Auditors


The Board of Directors
Electronic Book Technologies, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Electronic Book
Technologies, Inc. as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, changes in redeemable preferred stock and
stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended. 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 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Electronic Book
Technologies, Inc. at December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the consolidated results
of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

1. BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

Electronic Book Technologies, Inc. (the Company) is a global software technology
supplier of integrated CD-ROM/Web publishing solutions for the professional
information publisher.

On July 1, 1996, the Company entered into a Merger agreement with INSO
Corporation (the buyer or INSO) effective July 16, 1996. Under the agreement
INSO will pay cash of approximately $39,800,000 (less the amount payable in
redemption of outstanding shares of Series A and B preferred stock) in exchange
for all the capital stock of the Company.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 1996, the consolidated statements of
operations and statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 1996
and 1995 and the consolidated statements of changes in redeemable preferred
stock and stockholders' equity for the six months ended June 30, 1996 are
unaudited, but, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of
results for these interim periods. As permitted by Article 10 of Regulation S-X,
the accompanying financial statements do not include all the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for the interim
financial statements presented. The results of operations for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for
the entire year.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and
its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Upon consolidation, all material intercompany
accounts and transactions are eliminated.

                                                                               7

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents include funds held in liquid investments with original
maturities of three months or less.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Depreciation on property and equipment is computed using straight line for
financial reporting purposes and accelerated methods for income tax purposes
over useful lives ranging from five to seven years. Amortization of purchased
software is computed using the straight-line method over a three year period.

SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS

The Company capitalizes certain software development costs not under contract
with customers 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 Statement). Capitalization of software development
costs begins upon the establishment of technological feasibility as defined in
the Statement. The establishment of technological feasibility and the ongoing
assessment of recoverability of capitalized software development costs requires
considerable judgment by management with respect to certain external factors,
including, but not limited to, anticipated future gross revenues, estimated
economic life and changes in software and hardware technologies. Software
development costs are amortized on a straight-line method over a three-year
period. Amortization of software development costs was $130,777 and $72,238 for
the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

                                                                               8

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

The Company accounts for its stock compensation arrangements under the
provisions of APB 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees."

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue from software licenses is recognized upon delivery of the software to
the customer. Revenues from software maintenance fees are recognized ratably
over the term of the contractual agreements, generally one year. Revenues from
consulting engagements are recognized as revenue when the work is performed.

The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally
does not require collateral. The Company maintains reserves for potential credit
losses, which have not been material to the Company's financial position or
results of operations. Sales to international customers accounted for 29% and
22% of total sales during 1995 and 1994, respectively. Sales to one customer
accounted for approximately 11% of the Company's revenue in 1994.

INCOME TAXES

The Company utilizes the liability method to account for income taxes. Under
this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on
differences between financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities
and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect
when the differences are expected to reverse.

PENDING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In March 1995, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
121 ("SFAS 121"), Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of, which establishes accounting standards for
measuring the impairment of long-lived assets. The Company expects to adopt the
Statement after the consummation of the merger as described in Note 1. The
Company does not believe the effect of the adoption to be material.

                                                                               9

</TABLE>

In 1996, the Company entered into a separate subordinated loan agreement. The
agreement provides the Company with the ability to issue installment notes of
$250,000 up to an aggregate principal balance of $2,000,000. The notes mature
one year from the date of issuance and carry an annual interest rate of prime
plus 4%, payable at maturity. The agreement also requires the Company to issue
warrants for 1 share of common stock for every $20 dollars in term notes issued.
At June 30, 1996, the Company had $500,000 and 25,000 warrants outstanding under
this agreement. In July 1996, the Company borrowed an additional $500,000 and
issued an additional 25,000 warrants under the agreement. The warrants are
exercisable at a price of $5.03 per share through June, 2000.

                                                                              11

3.  DEBT (CONTINUED)

The Company has a working capital line of credit with a bank totaling $750,000.
The amount of availability is limited based upon levels of receivables. Interest
will be charged at the bank's prime rate plus 1.25%. The line of credit is
secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company, subject to a prior
lien on certain fixed assets granted to the Rhode Island Small Business Loan
Fund Corporation. There were no borrowings under this agreement during 1996,
1995 or 1994. The line matures in August 1996.

The carrying amount of debt approximates its fair value. Subsequent to the
acquisition as described in Note 1, the Company intends to repay all of its
outstanding obligations (of which $820,730 was in default at June 30, 1996) and,
accordingly at June 30, 1996, has classified all outstanding debt as current.

4.  COMMITMENTS

The Company leases its current operating facility under a noncancelable
operating lease agreement which may be terminated by the Company upon six
months' notice. The Company also leases office space for its various sales
offices. Total rent expense was $592,899 and $261,252 for the years ended
December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

6.  REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK

As of December 31, 1995, the Company had outstanding 2,500 shares of Series B
redeemable, convertible, cumulative, nonvoting preferred stock at $100 per
share, net of issuance costs. In the event of voluntary or involuntary
liquidation, the assets of the Company available for distribution to the holders
of the Company's common stock shall be used to pay first, the holders of the
Series A convertible preferred stock (see Note 7), and then the holders of the
Series B redeemable convertible preferred stock, for an amount per share based
upon a liquidation schedule (Liquidation Preference) in accordance with the
preferred stock agreement.

The holders of the Series B redeemable convertible preferred stock shall be
entitled to receive, when and if declared by the board of directors, dividends
on a cumulative basis for an amount per share based upon a dividend schedule in
accordance with the preferred stock agreement. This dividend schedule calls for
a minimum dividend of 10% of the share cost, compounded annually and may
increase as a result of the revenue performance of the Company's Japanese
subsidiary, Electronic Book Technologies K.K. As of December 31, 1995,
cumulative unpaid dividends on the Series B redeemable convertible preferred
stock amounted to $36,364.

                                                                             14

              Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)



6.  REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK (CONTINUED)

Each share of the Series B redeemable convertible preferred stock may
voluntarily convert into shares of common stock upon (i) a public offering or
(ii) issuance of an additional $3 million in common stock or equivalents. The
conversion rate shall be equal to the Liquidation Preference noted in the
agreement in effect as of the date of such event multiplied by the number of
shares held by such holder and divided by the price per share of the common
stock or equivalent paid by the purchasers of such securities from the Company
in such an event. The Company may, at any time, call for redemption of all
shares of the Series B redeemable convertible preferred stock at a redemption
price per share equal to the Liquidation Preference in effect at such time.
Holders of Series B redeemable convertible preferred stock may, at any time
after December 31, 1997, redeem such shares at a redemption price which
approximates the Liquidation Preference.

The carrying amount of redeemable preferred stock approximates its fair value.

7.  STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

During 1994, the board of directors approved a 2 for 1 stock split effected as a
dividend, payable to holders of record of common stock at the close of business
on October 1, 1994. In conjunction with the stock split, the shareholders
authorized an increase in the number of authorized shares of common stock from
2,000,000 to 6,000,000.

As of December 31, 1995, the Company had outstanding 750 shares of Series A
convertible, noncumulative, nonvoting preferred stock which sold for $100 per
share, net of issuance costs. The holders of the Series A convertible preferred
stock shall be entitled to receive, when and if declared by the board of
directors, dividends on a noncumulative basis at the annual rate of $8.00 per
share. As of December 31, 1995, no dividends have been declared.

Each share of the Series A convertible preferred stock shall be automatically
converted into shares of common stock upon (i) a $1.5 million public offering or
(ii) issuance of additional $1.5 million in common stock or equivalents. The
conversion rate shall be equal to the Liquidation Preference noted in the
agreement in effect as of the date of such event multiplied by the number of
shares held by such holder and divided by the price per share of the common
stock or equivalent paid by the purchasers of such securities from the Company
in such an event. The Company may, at any time, call for redemption of all
shares of the Series A convertible preferred at a redemption price per share
equal to the Liquidation Preference in effect at such time.

                                                                              15

8.  INCENTIVE AND NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTION PLAN

The Company has an incentive and nonstatutory stock option plan (the Plan) under
which incentive stock options (incentive options) and nonstatutory stock options
(nonstatutory options) may be granted to officers and key employees of the
Company and any subsidiary. Nonstatutory options may also be granted to
individuals providing services to or acting as directors of the Company or any
subsidiary. As of December 31, 1995, the Company had reserved 2,000,000 shares
of common stock for the exercise of stock options.

The Plan provides certain guidelines as to the purchase price per share as
follows: the purchase price for incentive options shall not be less than the
fair market value of the common stock on the date the option is granted (110% of
the fair market value in the case of a greater-than-10% stockholder). The price
at which shares may be purchased pursuant to nonstatutory options shall be
specified by the board of directors at the time the option is granted, but shall
not be less than the par value of shares of common stock.

Under its present terms, the Plan will expire in 2003. The term of each option
is ten years (five years in the case of an Incentive Option granted to a
greater-than-10% stockholder) or such shorter period as may be determined by the
board of directors. Options are exercisable in installments specified by the
Company in the stock option agreement.

                                INSO CORPORATION

     PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED BALANCE SHEET AND STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS

                                   (UNAUDITED)


Background Information

On July 16, 1996, INSO Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company" or
"INSO") purchased privately held Electronic Book Technologies, Inc. a Delaware
corporation ("EBT"). The acquisition was in the form of a merger of a subsidiary
of the Company into EBT.

The Company paid an aggregate of approximately $27,800,000 in cash at the
closing from the Company's cash on hand. In addition, certain stock options of
EBT survived the closing (the "Surviving Options") and if exercised, the
Company has the right and obligation to purchase shares issuable upon such
exercises, for an additional aggregate amount of approximately $10,400,000,
which is also expected to be paid from the Company's cash on hand. The
transaction will be accounted for as a purchase and provides for additional
payments of approximately $1,500,000 to the principal stockholder of EBT
eighteen months after the closing date and contingent payments up to an
additional $5,300,000 in the event that certain EBT financial and operating
goals are met.

The acquisition includes certain technology under research and development,
which is to be written-off with a charge of $34,300,000, to the Company's
consolidated 1996 third quarter earnings.

EBT is a leading international provider of integrated CD-ROM/Web publishing
solutions for serious corporate and commercial publishers. EBT markets its
products to original equipment manufacturers of computer software and to major
corporations and government entities.


Basis of Accompanying Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Financial
Statements

The results of EBT's operations will be included in the Company's operating
results beginning July 16, 1996, the closing date of the acquisition. The
Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Balance Sheet assumes that the
acquisition of EBT, including the payment for the underlying stock of the
Surviving Options, occurred on June 30, 1996. The Unaudited Pro Forma Combined
Condensed Statements of Operations combines the historical results of
operations of INSO and EBT for the year ended December 31, 1995 and the six
months ended June 30, 1996 assuming the acquisition occurred on January 1, 1995
and January 1, 1996, respectively. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed
financial statements do not reflect cost savings and synergies which might be

     PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED BALANCE SHEET AND STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS

                                   (UNAUDITED)


The Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Balance Sheet includes the effect of
the write-off of certain technology under research and development of
$34,300,000. However, the Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Statements of
Operations do not consider the write-off of this technology or other
non-recurring charges which may result from the transaction and the integration
of EBT into the Company. The Company expects these to be charged to operations
during the quarter ended September 30, 1996.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Balance Sheet includes direct
transaction costs associated with the merger. These direct costs consist of
legal and accounting services and appraisal fees. Additionally, the Unaudited
Pro Forma Combined Condensed Balance Sheet includes estimated costs relating to
the elimination of excess and duplicate activities as a result of the merger.
The actual allocation of the final purchase price may be different from that
reflected in the pro forma combined condensed financial statements. There can be
no assurance that INSO will not incur additional charges in subsequent quarters
to reflect costs associated with the merger or that management will be
successful in their efforts to integrate the operations of the two companies.

Management believes that the assumptions used in preparing these unaudited pro
forma combined condensed financial statements provide a reasonable basis for
presenting all of the significant effects of the acquisition. These unaudited
pro forma combined condensed financial statements do not purport to be
indicative of the results which actually would have been obtained if the
acquisition had been effected on the date indicated or of those results which
may be achieved in the future. The pro forma combined condensed financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements included in the INSO Corporation Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 1995.
