(1)   No stock appreciation rights were granted to the Named Executive Officers
      in the last fiscal year. Consists of stock options granted pursuant to the
      Company's 1995 Stock Plan. The Company's options generally become
      exercisable at a rate of 12.5% after six months following the date of
      grant and approximately 2% per month thereafter, as long as the optionee
      remains an employee of or consultant to the Company. The maximum term of
      each option granted is ten years from the date of grant. The exercise
      price is equal to the fair market value of the stock on the grant date as
      determined by the Board of Directors. The grants include a grant in the
      amount of 25,000 shares for Mr. Dunn and 8,333 shares for each of the
      other named officers which vest on the sixth anniversary of the date of
      grant. Such options also include a provision for accelerated vesting upon
      the attainment of certain performance goals.

(2)   The 5% and 10% assumed compounded annual rates of stock price appreciation
      are mandated by rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. There can
      be no assurance that the actual stock price appreciation over the ten-year
      option term will be at the assumed 5% and 10% levels or at any other
      defined level. Unless the market price of the Common Stock appreciates
      over the option term, no value will be realized from the option grants
      made to the persons named in the Summary Compensation Table.

(3)   The Company granted stock options  representing  747,139 to employees
      during the fiscal year ended January 2, 1998.

(4)   The exercise price may be paid in cash, in shares of Common Stock valued
      at fair market value on the exercise date or through a cashless exercise
      procedure involving a same-day sale of the purchased shares. The Company
      may also finance the option exercise by loaning the optionee sufficient
      funds to pay the exercise price for the purchased shares and the federal
      and state income tax liability incurred by the optionee in connection with
      such exercise.

        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in any of the

Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that might incorporate future

and the Performance Graph on page 9 shall not be incorporated by reference into
any such filings.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

        The following is a report of the Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors (the "Committee") describing the compensation policies applicable to
the Company's executive officers during the fiscal year ended January 2, 1998.
The Committee recommends salaries, incentives and other forms of compensation
for directors, officers and other employees of the Company, administers the
Company's various incentive compensation and benefit plans (including stock
plans) and recommends policies relating to such incentive compensation and
benefit plans. Executive officers who are also directors have not participated
in deliberations or decisions involving their own compensation.

COMPENSATION POLICY

        The Company's executive officer compensation philosophies are designed
to attract, motivate and retain senior management by providing an opportunity
for competitive, performance-based compensation. Executive officer compensation
consists of competitive base salaries and stock-based incentive opportunities in
the form of options to purchase the Company's Common Stock. The Company's
executive compensation program consists of three main components: (1) base
salary, (2) potential for bonus based on overall Company performance as well as
individual performance, (3) stock options/grants that provide the executive
officers with the opportunity to build a meaningful stake in the Company, with
the objective of aligning executive officers' long-range interests with those of
the stockholders and encouraging the achievement of superior results over time.
The second and third elements of the compensation program constitute the "at
risk" components. The Committee annually evaluates the Company's performance,
actual compensation and stock ownership of executive officers on a comparative
basis with companies in the same industry as well as other companies in the same
geographical area.

BASE SALARIES FOR FISCAL 1997

        In establishing compensation guidelines with respect to base salary, the
Company utilized data from various surveys prepared by independent firms to
assist it in setting salary levels competitive with those of other similar
industry companies. While it is the Committee's intent to continue to review
periodically base salary information to monitor competitive ranges within the
applicable market, including consideration of the Company's geographic location
and individual job responsibilities, it is further the intent of the Committee
to maintain a close relationship between the Company's performance and the base
salary component of its executive officers' compensation.

STOCK OPTION AWARDS FOR FISCAL 1997

        The Company's 1995 Stock Plan provides for the issuance of stock options
to officers and employees of the Company to purchase shares of the Company's
Common Stock at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of such stock
on the date of grant. The Company's stock options typically vest ratably over a
period of four years. Stock options are granted to the Company's executive
officers and other employees both as a reward for past individual and corporate
performance and as an incentive



                                      -7-

<PAGE>   10

for future performance. The Committee believes that stock-based performance
compensation arrangements are essential in aligning the interests of management
and the stockholders in enhancing the value of the Company's equity.

COMPENSATION OF THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

        The compensation for Jeffrey W. Dunn, the Company's Chairman, President
and Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), is determined based on a number of factors,
including comparative salaries of CEO's of companies in the Company's peer
group, the CEO's individual performance and the Company's performance as
measured against the stated objectives. The CEO's total compensation package
includes stock option grants with the goal of motivating leadership for
long-term Company success and providing significant reward upon achievement of
Company objectives and enhancing stockholder value. As with other executives,
size of option grants is also based on a review of competitive survey data.

DEDUCTIBILITY OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

        The Committee has considered the impact of Section 162(m) of the
Internal Revenue Code adopted under the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of
1993, which section disallows a deduction for any publicly held corporation for
individual compensation exceeding $1 million in any taxable year for the CEO and
four other most highly compensated executive officers, unless such compensation
meets the requirements for the "performance-based" exception to the general
rule. Since the cash compensation paid by the Company to each of its executive
officers is expected to be well below $1 million and the Company believes that
options granted under the Company's 1995 Stock Option Plan will meet the
requirements for qualifying as performance-based, the Committee believes that
this section will not affect the tax deductions available to the Company. It
will be the Committee's policy to qualify, to the extent reasonable, the
executive officers' compensation for deductibility under applicable tax law.

                                               SUBMITTED BY THE COMPENSATION
                                               COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF

PERFORMANCE GRAPH

        The following graph compares the cumulative total stockholder return
data, assuming reinvestment of all dividends, for the Company's Common Stock at
January 2, 1998 since April 10, 1997 (the date on which the Company's stock was
first registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended) to the cumulative return over such period of (i) the U.S. Index for the
Nasdaq National Market and (ii) the Computer Manufacturers Index for the Nasdaq
National Market. The graph assumes that $100 was invested on April 10, 1997 in
the Common Stock of the Company and each of the comparative indices. The graph
further assumes that such amount was initially invested in the Common Stock of
the Company at a price per share of $9.00, the price at which such stock was
first offered to the public by the Company on that date. The stock price
performance on the following graph is not necessarily indicative of future stock
price performance.

(1)   Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the
      Securities and Exchange Commission. In computing the number of shares
      beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of shares, the
      Common Stock options held by that person that are currently exercisable,
      or become exercisable within 60 days following March 2, 1998, are deemed
      outstanding. However, such shares are not deemed outstanding for purposes
      of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Except as

      applicable community property laws, the persons named in the table have
      sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of Common

ITEM 13.  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

        The Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of
December 9, 1994 with Kubota Graphics pursuant to which the Company purchased
certain assets of Kubota Graphics (the "Asset Acquisition"). In connection with
the Asset Acquisition, the Company entered into a Convertible Note Purchase
Agreement dated as of December 22, 1994, with Kubota, the parent corporation of
Kubota Graphics, pursuant to which the Company issued Kubota a subordinated
convertible promissory note carrying an initial principal amount of $3.3 million
(the "Convertible Note"). The Company used $1.2 million of the proceeds from the
Convertible Note to purchase certain assets pursuant to the Asset Acquisition
and the remaining proceeds were used for working capital. By its terms, the
original note was due December 22, 1996 and bore interest at a rate of 6%.
One-half of the Convertible Note was convertible into Preferred Stock upon the
Company achieving a revenue milestone and the entire Convertible Note was
convertible into Preferred Stock at the same rate upon the closing of an equity
offering with proceeds in excess of $2.0 million. Upon the occurrence of the
closing of the Series A Preferred Stock equity offering, Kubota and the Company
renegotiated the Convertible Note such that Kubota converted one-half, or $1.65
million of principal into a new note which is due June 20, 1998, bears interest
at the prime rate and is convertible only in the case of certain dilution
events, and the other one-half of principal, or $1.65 million, was converted
into 90,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Mr. Miyamoto, a former director
of the Company, is an affiliate of Kubota and Mr. Dunn was formerly Vice
President of Marketing at Kubota Graphics.

        In June and July 1995, the Company issued an aggregate of 3,446,997
shares of Series A Preferred Stock at a price per share of $1.67 to investors
that included, among others, Advanced Technology Ventures IV (750,000 shares),
AVI Capital, L.P. and its affiliated entities (749,997 shares), STF II, L.P.
(600,000 shares) and Woodside Fund III, L.P. (300,000 shares). In connection
with this financing, Kubota converted $1,650,000 of the outstanding principal on
the Convertible Note into 990,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

        In March 1996, the Company issued an aggregate of 1,061,660 shares of
Series B Preferred Stock at a per share price of $3.00 to investors that
included, among others, Asset Management Associates (333,333 shares), Kubota
(162,750 shares), Woodside Fund III, L.P. (132,652 shares), Advanced
Technologies Ventures IV, L.P. (123,295 shares), AVI Capital, L.P. and
affiliated entities (123,295 shares) and STF II, L.P. (98,636 shares).

        In November 1997, the Company entered into Key Employee Retention
Agreements with each of its executive officers. Pursuant to the terms of the
agreements, in the event of a change of control of the Company, the executive
officers are entitled to certain severance benefits, including acceleration of
50% of their unvested stock, continuation of salary, bonus and benefits for up
to one year.

        In November 1997, the Company entered into a Key Employee Retention
Agreement with its Chief Executive Officer. Pursuant to the terms of the
agreement, in the event of a change of control of the Company, the Chief
Executive Officer is entitled to certain severance benefits, including
acceleration of 100% of his unvested stock, continuation of salary, bonus and
benefits for up to 18 months.

        The Company has entered into separate indemnification agreements with
each of its directors and officers that may require the Company, among other
things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason
of their status or services as a director or officer and to advance their
expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they
could be indemnified.

        The Company believes that all of the transactions set forth above were
made on terms no less favorable to the Company than could have been obtained
from unaffiliated third parties. All future transactions, including loans,
between the Company and its officers, directors, principal stockholders and
affiliates will be approved by a majority of the Board of Directors, including a
majority of the independent and disinterested directors on the Board of
Directors, and will be on terms no less favorable to the Company than could be
obtained from unaffiliated third parties.
