These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based

                         Notes to Financial Statements


1.   BACKGROUND AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The financial statements include the accounts of Real Time Geometry Corp.
(the "Company"), a privately held company based in Princeton, New Jersey,
specializing in real time 3D graphics and visualization technologies. Since
inception, the Company has devoted its efforts to establishing its business,
raising capital, recruiting personnel, and developing software. Accordingly,
through the date of these financial statements, the Company is considered to be
a development stage enterprise. 

On December 31, 1996, MetaTools, Inc. ("MetaTools") acquired the Company,
pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 23, 1996 (the
"Purchase Agreement").  Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the
shareholders and optionholders of the Company received a combination of shares
of MetaTools' common stock and options to purchase shares of the MetaTools'
common stock valued at $11.8 million at December 31, 1996. The Company's
existing operations will remain in Princeton, New Jersey as the MetaTools / Real
Time Geometry research and development lab.

The financial statements do not reflect the effects resulting from the
acquisition of the Company by MetaTools.

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 expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Assets are depreciated on the
straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, which range from 3 to 5
years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the life of the
lease or the life of the asset. Upon sale, any gain or loss is included in the
consolidated statement of operations. Maintenance and minor replacements are
expensed as incurred.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS

The Company accounts for its software development costs in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 86, "Accounting for the
Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed." This
statement provides for capitalization of certain software development costs once
technological feasibility is established. The costs so capitalized are then

whichever is greater. To date, technological feasibility has not been achieved
on any of the Company's products. As a result, the Company has not capitalized
any internal software development costs.

NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

Net income (loss) per common share is computed using the weighted average number
of shares of common stock and common equivalent shares outstanding. Common
equivalent shares related to stock options, warrants and preferred stock are
excluded from the computation when their effect is antidilutive.

CASH EQUIVALENTS

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method as required by
SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under SFAS No. 109, deferred taxes
are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax
bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year
in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are
established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected
to be realized.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company grants stock options for a fixed number of shares to employees with
an exercise price equal to the fair value of the shares at the date of grant.
The Company accounts for stock option grants in accordance with APB Opinion No.
25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and accordingly, recognizes no
compensation expense for the stock option grants.

SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Awards of Stock-Based Compensation to Employees,"
provides alternative accounting treatment to APB Opinion No. 25 with respect to
stock-based compensation and requires certain additional disclosures, including
disclosures if the Company elects not to adopt the accounting measurement
requirements of SFAS No. 123. The Company has elected not to adopt the
accounting measurement requirements of SFAS No. 123 for stock options granted to
employees.

</TABLE>

4.   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

During the period ended December 31, 1996, the Company paid approximately
$150,000 to an affiliate of the preferred shareholder for management,
accounting, and administrative services.

5.   LOANS PAYABLE TO SHAREHOLDERS

On April 4, 1996, the Company entered into a loan agreement (the "Loan
Agreement") with the preferred shareholders in the amount of $2.5 million.  The
Loan Agreement, which is secured by a first mortgage and security interest
covering all of the Company's assets (including all intellectual property
rights), matures on April 4, 2006, subject to acceleration in the event of an
initial public offering of the Company's stock, or a private debt or equity
offering or similar transaction. Borrowings against the Loan Agreement accrue
interest at a rate of 10% per annum, compounded semi-annually. No payments are
to be made for the first three years, and interest-only payments are to be made
for the remaining seven years. At December 31, 1996, borrowings against the Loan
Agreement totaled $1,477,000, including accrued interest of $27,000.

In the event that the Company has not raised at least $2.5 million by October 4,
1997 through an initial public offering of the Company's stock, or a private
debt or equity offering or similar transaction, the preferred shareholders have
agreed to make available to the Company an additional loan (the "Additional
Loan") in the amount of $2.5 million. The Additional Loan would be secured by a
second mortgage and security interest covering all of the Company's assets
(including all intellectual property rights), and would mature on April 4, 2006,
subject to acceleration in the event of an initial public offering of the
Company's stock, or a private debt or equity offering or similar transaction.
Borrowings against the Additional Loan would accrue interest at a rate of 15%
per annum, compounded semi-annually. Interest-only payments would be made
through the maturity date. Proceeds from the Additional Loan would be required
to be spent pursuant to a budget approved in advance by the preferred
shareholders.

6.   SERIES A CUMULATIVE CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

On February 1, 1996, the Company authorized 200 shares of Series A cumulative
convertible preferred stock ("Preferred Stock"), of which 200 shares were issued
and outstanding at December 31, 1996. The Preferred Stock is entitled to
cumulative dividends, at a rate of 15% per annum on the liquidation preference
amount. Dividends accrue through June 15, 1999, at which time all accrued and
unpaid dividends are due and payable.  Thereafter, dividends are payable on a
quarterly basis. Cumulative dividends are not payable and will be deemed
canceled and waived upon conversion of the Preferred Stock. The Preferred Stock
is convertible into common stock at the rate of one share of common stock for
each share of Preferred Stock, has voting rights equal to its common stock
conversion, and carries a liquidation preference of $6,250 per share, plus any
dividends accrued and unpaid.

7.   STOCK OPTION PLAN

The Company's Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") provides for the grant of
nonstatutory stock options to employees and consultants of the Company. As of
December 31, 1996, options to purchase an aggregate of 250 shares of common
stock were outstanding under the Plan.  Options to purchase an aggregate of 50
shares of common stock were granted to an officer of the Company and vest in
three equal installments over a three year period, subject to continued
employment with the Company and accelerated vesting in the event of death or an
initial public offering of the Company's stock.  Options to purchase an
aggregate of 200 shares of common stock were issued to the preferred
shareholders, and are subject to customary anti-dilution provisions for a ten
year term. At December 31, 1996, no shares of common stock were reserved for
additional grants of options under the Plan.

The fair market value of the options at the date of grant was insignificant. As
a result, compensation expense related to the options for the period from
February 1, 1996 (date of inception) through December 31, 1996, in accordance
with SFAS No. 123, would have been insignificant.

8.   INCOME TAXES

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences
between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting
purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes, together with net
operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Significant components of the
Company's deferred tax assets are as follows:

</TABLE>

As a result of the Company's loss history, a valuation allowance has been placed
against the entire deferred tax asset. At December 31, 1996, the Company has net
operating loss carryforwards of approximately $2,591,000 for both federal and
state income tax purposes, which begin expiring in 2011 and 2003, respectively.

     NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 
1.   BASIS OF COMBINATION

The MetaTools, Inc. ("MetaTools") pro forma combined condensed financial
information gives effect to the acquisition of Real Time Geometry Corp. ("RTG"),
which was completed on December 31, 1996. The MetaTools pro forma combined
condensed balance sheet reflects completion of the acquisition on December 31,
1996, and the MetaTools pro forma combined condensed statement of operations
assumes completion of the acquisition on February 1, 1996, the date of
incorporation of RTG.

All financial data used to develop the MetaTools pro forma condensed combined
financial information is unaudited, but in the opinion of MetaTools' management,
reflects all adjustments necessary (consisting of normal recurring entries) for
a fair presentation thereof.

The MetaTools pro forma condensed combined statement of operations is not
necessarily indicative of operating results which would have been achieved had
the acquisition been consummated as of February 1, 1996, the date of
incorporation of RTG, and should not be construed as representative of future
operations.

The allocation of the purchase price among identifiable tangible and intangible
assets, as reflected in the accompanying pro forma financial information, was
based on an analysis of the fair values of those assets.  Specifically,
purchased in-process technology was evaluated through analysis of data
concerning such technology.  The resulting purchased in-process technology of
$13.3 million, along with acquisition costs totaling $1.2 million, were expensed
on December 31, 1996, the completion date of the acquisition, in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles.

The unaudited pro forma condensed statement of operations for the year ended
December 31, 1996, does not include the $14.5 million write-off of purchased in-
process technology and other acquisition costs as it is a material non-recurring
charge.  It will be included in the actual consolidated statement of operations
of MetaTools in the quarter ended December 31, 1996.
