             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 (unaudited)

1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Logic Works, Inc. (the "Company") is a provider of database design and 
business process modeling tools and services.  The Company was incorporated 
in Delaware in 1985 and operates in one industry segment. The Company has 
subsidiaries in Australia, Canada, England, Germany and Switzerland.  The 
accompanying  unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include 
the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.


The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have 
been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities 
and Exchange Commission and, accordingly, do not include all financial 
information and footnotes required under generally accepted accounting 
principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, 
the accompanying  unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements 
contain all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments that the 
Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position 
of the Company as of March 31, 1996 and the results of the Company's 
operations and its cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 
1995, respectively.  This report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction 
with the Company's audited financial statements for the year ended December 
31, 1995 and the notes therein, included in the Company's annual report on 
Form 10K.  The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily 
indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the entire year.


2.  PER SHARE AMOUNTS

Primary net income per share is computed using the weighted average number of 
common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding and gives effect to 
certain adjustments. Shares used in computing primary net income per share 
include common shares and common equivalent shares consisting of outstanding 
stock options and warrants. For periods prior to August 23, 1995 such 
computations have been adjusted to reflect as outstanding, using the treasury 
stock method, all common and common equivalent shares issued during the 
twelve month period preceding August 24, 1995 the date of the Company's 
initial filing of its Registration Statement on Form S-1 with the Securities 
and Exchange Commission, as if they were outstanding for all periods 
presented.


Fully diluted net income per share is computed in the same manner as primary 
net income per share adjusted for the end of period estimated fair value and 
the assumed conversion (using the if converted method) of the 2,400,000 
shares of Series A Redeemable Preferred Stock outstanding, which converted to 
common shares on a one-for-one basis upon the consummation of the Company's 
initial public offering.

3.  MARKETABLE SECURITIES

Management determines the appropriate classification of debt securities at 
the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each balance 
sheet date.   Debt securities are classified as available-for-sale when the 
Company does not have the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity, and
all equity securities, except for those purchased for the trading portfolio.  
Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value, with the unrealized 
gains and losses, net of tax, reported in a separate component of 
shareholders' equity.  The amortized cost of debt securities in this category 
is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to 
maturity.  Such amortization is included in investment income.  Realized 
gains and losses and declines in value judged to be other-than-temporary on 
available-for-sale securities are included in investment income.  The cost of 
securities sold is based on the specific identification method.  Interest and 
dividends on securities classified as available-for-sale are included in 
investment income.

The following is a summary of available-for-sale securities:



                                           Available-for-Sale Securities

TOTAL REVENUES. Total revenues increased 73.9% to $9.4 million in the three 
months ended March 31, 1996 from $5.4 million in the three months ended March 
31, 1995. The Company's revenues are derived from two sources: license fees 
and services. The Company derived approximately $2.3 million and $1.5 
million, or 24.3% and 27.6% of its total revenues, from international 
customers in three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  The 
Company expects that international revenues will continue to represent a 
significant percentage of total revenues. To date, most all of the Company's 
international license fees and services revenue have been denominated in 
United States dollars and, accordingly, the Company has not hedged its 
exposure to foreign currency fluctuations. The Company anticipates that, in 
the future, an increasing proportion of the Company's sales will be 
denominated in foreign currencies. In such event, foreign currency 
translations may contribute to significant fluctuations in the Company's 
results of operations and the Company may enter into hedging transactions to 
mitigate the effects of exchange rate variations.


LICENSE FEES.  License fees increased 65.5% to $7.4 million in the three 
months ended March 31, 1996 from $4.5 million in the three months ended March 
31, 1995.  License fees include revenues from software licensed either 
directly from the Company or through VARs, dealers or distributors, and 
resales of third party software. The increases during these periods resulted 
from increased market acceptance of the Company's products, primarily ERwin 
and BPwin, which were stimulated by the Company's sales and marketing 
activities, the introduction of ModelMart, Logic Works' workgroup management 
system, and the expansion of the Company's direct and indirect channels. The 
ERwin product line accounted for 79.8% and 90.7% of its license fees in the 
three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The remainder of 
the license fees were received from licenses of BPwin, ModelMart and to a 
significantly lesser extent, RPTwin and OOwin.

COST OF LICENSE FEES.  Cost of license fees consists primarily of the costs 
of product media, duplication, manuals and shipping for software licensed to 
the Company's customers.  The dollar increase in the cost of license fees 
reflects the rapid growth in license fees during the periods presented. 
However, the decrease in the cost of license fees as a percentage of license 
fees resulted from the termination of an agreement with Sybase Inc's 
Powersoft unit in the third quarter of 1995. The agreement permitted the 
Company to purchase and resell Powersoft's Powerbuilder product as part of a 
bundled product with ERwin. The Company anticipates entering into, from time
to time, other arrangements under which the Company will resell third 
party products, resulting in future costs of license fees.


SERVICES FEE REVENUE.  Services revenue increased by 114.2% to $2.0 million 
in the three months ended March 31, 1996 from $0.9 million in the three 
months ended March 31, 1995. Services revenue includes fees from software 
maintenance agreements, and training and consulting services. The growth in 
services revenues during the periods presented was the result of increased 
maintenance fees associated with the increased number of licenses during such 
periods, and increased training services generated from the continued growth 
of the Company's Professional Services Group.  The Company plans to expand 
the group and is focused on increasing the growth of its training and 
consulting services revenue.


COST OF SERVICES.  Cost of services consists primarily of personnel and 
related costs for training, consulting, customer support and payments to 
third party service providers. Cost of services also reflects the costs 
associated with product media, duplication, manuals, and shipping product 
upgrades to customers who have subscribed to the Company's maintenance plans. 
The increase in cost of services is the result of the expansion and 
increasing amount of training and consulting services by the Professional 
Services Group.


SALES AND MARKETING.  Sales and marketing expenses increased to $5.0 million 
in the three months ended March 31, 1996 from $2.9 million in the three 
months ended March 31, 1995 and represented 53.5% and 54.3%, respectively, of 
total revenues in each period. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily 
of 

                                      9
<PAGE>

salaries, commissions and bonuses paid to sales and marketing personnel, 
as well as travel and promotional expenses.


      Sales and marketing expenses increased markedly during each of the 
periods presented, due primarily to substantial increases in personnel 
expenses from increased hiring, increased advertising and promotional costs, 
and increased sales commissions. During each of the periods presented, the 
Company has increased the number of employees in its sales and marketing 
organization. The significant growth in the Company's sales and marketing 
expenses during the three months ended March 31, 1996 reflected the expansion 
of its direct field sales force and its European sales and marketing staff. 
The increases in sales and marketing expenses during the three months ended 
March 31, 1996 also reflected increased advertising and promotional programs 
related to releases of extended versions of ERwin and new products such as 
ERwin/ERX for ModelMart and Logic Works ModelMart. During the three months 
ended March 31, 1996, the Company also increased its trade show activity and 
expanded its targeted direct mail efforts.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expenses increased to $1.3 
million in the three months ended March 31, 1996 from $0.9 million in the 
three months ended March 31, 1995 and represented 13.4% and 16.2% of total 
revenues, respectively.  Research and development expenses consist primarily 
of software engineering personnel costs, costs of third party equipment and 
software for development purposes and costs of outside consultants hired by 
the Company to assist in its product development efforts. Research and 
development expenses are generally charged to operations as they are incurred 
and have not been capitalized since capitalizable costs have not been 
material. The growth in research and development expenses during the periods 
presented was the result of the Company's ongoing development of extended 
versions of ERwin and BPwin, and Logic Works ModelMart as well as developing 
new products for future release and the continuation of its quality control 
and quality assurance programs.


GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE.  General and administrative expenses increased to 
$1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 1996 from $0.6 million for 
the three months ended March 31, 1995 and represented 14.3% and 11.8% of 
total revenues, respectively.  General and administrative expenses consist 
primarily of salaries of administrative, executive and financial personnel, 
provision for doubtful accounts, and professional fees.


PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES.  The Company's effective tax rate was 38% and 40% 
for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. These 
effective tax rates were based on the federal and state statutory rates.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     At March 31, 1996, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of
$20,243,000 and marketable securities of $6,149,000.


     Net cash (used) provided by operating activities was ($2,732,000) and 
$60,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995. The increase in 
cash used in operating activities is primarily related to the deposit 
receivable from the Company's new landlord and an increase in accounts 
receivable.

     Net cash and cash equivalents used in investing activities increased 
$7,401,000 in the first three months of 1996 compared to the same period 
in 1995. This increase in investing activities is the result of purchases 
of marketable securities, and increased purchases of property, plant and 
equipment resulting from the growing headcount and the move of the Company's 
corporate headquarters from a 27,000 square foot facility to a 70,000 square 
foot facility.

     Net cash provided by financing activities increased by $889,000 in the 
first three months of 1996 compared to the same period in 1995. This increase 
is the result of additional options to purchase shares of the Company's stock 
being exercised.

                                     10
<PAGE>


     As part of its growth strategy, the Company pursues the acquisition of 
other companies that sell products and services that either complement or 
expand its existing business. As a result, the Company continually evaluates 
potential acquisition opportunities, which may be material in size and scope. 
The Company does not currently have any commitments or agreements with 
respect to any acquisitions. The Company anticipates, however, that one or 
more potential acquisition opportunities, including those that could be 
material may become available in the future. If and when appropriate 
acquisition opportunities become available, the Company intends to pursue 
them actively. The Company may utilize equity securities, to consummate 
acquisitions, which may cause dilution to investors in the Company's Common 
Stock. In addition, the Company may be required to utilize cash to consummate 
acquisitions. No assurances can be given that the Company will have adequate 
resources to consummate any acquisition, that any acquisition will or will not 
occur, that if any acquisition does occur it will not materially and adversely
affect the Company or not be dilutive to stockholders or that any such 
acquisition will be successful in enhancing the Company's business.

     The Company believes that its existing cash balances together with cash
flow from operations will be sufficient to meet its cash requirements
for the next twelve months.


BUSINESS CONSIDERATIONS

The Company's future business, financial condition and results of operations 
are dependent on the Company's ability to successfully manage the following 
business considerations.  No assurance can be given that the Company will be 
able to manage such considerations successfully.  The failure to manage such 
considerations successfully could have a material adverse effect on the 
Company's business, financial conditions and results of operations, and on 
the market price of its securities.


POTENTIAL FOR SIGNIFICANT FLUCTUATIONS IN QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS; 
SEASONALITY.  The Company has experienced, and may in the future experience, 
significant quarter to quarter fluctuations in its results of operations. 
Such fluctuations may result in volatility in the price of the Company's 
Common Stock. Quarterly results of operations may fluctuate as a result of a 
variety of factors, including demand for the Company's products, the timing 
of introduction of new products and product enhancements by the Company or its
competitors, market acceptance of new products, the mix of direct and 
indirect sales, the mix of license fee and services revenue, the mix of 
products within license fee revenue, the mix of maintenance, training and 
consulting services within services revenue, the geographic mix of revenue, 
the nature and timing of significant marketing and joint marketing programs, 
the number and timing of new hires, foreign currency exchange rate 
fluctuations, competitive conditions in the industry and general economic 
conditions. The Company has historically recognized a substantial portion of 
its revenues in the last month of a quarter, with these revenues frequently 
concentrated in the last week of the quarter. As a result, license fees in 
any quarter are substantially dependent on orders booked and shipped in the 
last month and last week of that quarter. The Company's revenues are 
difficult to forecast because of the Company's relatively short historic 
sales cycle, the reliance on customer-initiated inquiries for a substantial 
portion of the Company's telesales, variations in the size, type and 
purchasing procedures of the Company's customers, the use of indirect 
distribution channels that place orders on an as-needed basis and the 
Company's limited backlog. A high percentage of the Company's operating 
expenses is based primarily on planned product introductions and sales 
forecasts and the Company may be unable to adjust spending in a timely manner 
to compensate for any unexpected shortfalls in revenues. Accordingly, the 
Company believes that period to period comparisons of results of operations 
are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indication 
of future results of operations. There can be no assurance that the Company 
will be profitable in any future quarter. The Company has historically 
experienced increased demand for its products during the third quarter, due 
primarily to the purchasing patterns of United States Federal governmental 
agencies, decreased demand in the first quarter and increased demand in the 
fourth quarter, due to other customers' buying patterns and the effects of 
quarterly and annual sales performance quotas. Due to the Company's limited 
operating history and as a result of its rapid revenue growth, seasonal 
trends in the Company's results of operations have not clearly emerged. 
However, the Company believes that its future operating results may follow a 
similar pattern of seasonal fluctuation. Due to the foregoing factors, it is 
likely that in future quarters the Company's operating results will be below 
the 

                                     11
<PAGE>

expectations of public market analysts and investors. Such an event would 
have a material adverse effect on the price of the Company's Common Stock.


DEPENDENCE ON ERWIN PRODUCT LINE.  The ERwin line of products and related 
services accounted for approximately 79.8% and 90.7% of the Company's 
revenues in the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. 
These products and services are expected to continue to account for 
substantially all of the Company's revenues for the foreseeable future. 
Accordingly, the Company's future results of operations will depend, in part, 
on achieving broader market acceptance of ERwin and related services. 
Customer acceptance of ERwin will also depend on the Company's ability to 
preserve its open architecture by continuing to support leading relational 
database management systems, client-side application development tools and 
other modeling tools. This multi-vendor support may place a significant 
strain on the development resources of the Company. Failure to provide 
support for databases and tools that achieve broad market acceptance may 
materially and adversely affect sales of ERwin. A reduction in demand or 
increase in competition in the market for its ERwin line of products and 
related services, or decline in sales of such products and services, would 
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of 
operations and financial condition, and the market price of its securities.


RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE DEVELOPMENT AND MARKETING OF LOGIC WORKS MODELMART 
AND ERWIN/OPEN FOR MODELMART.  The Company  recently introduced Logic Works 
ModelMart, which serves as a repository of ERwin data models.  There can be 
no assurance that the Company will be successful in achieving market 
acceptance for Logic Works ModelMart. This product is anticipated to result 
in significantly higher average order sizes than the Company's existing 
products and represents for its users a commitment to a model-driven 
development approach at the workgroup level rather than the individual 
developer level. The Company believes that, due to the anticipated higher 
average order sizes and increased sophistication, this product will require a 
longer and more involved sales process, purchase decisions to be made at a 
higher management level and greater technical field support than its existing 
products. To prepare for the introduction of this product, the Company 
commenced the development and expansion of a direct field sales force in 
1995, which represents a new and untested method of distribution for the 
Company. There can be no assurance that the Company's direct sales force will 
be successful in marketing this product at a level that offsets the costs of 
a direct field sales force. Since the Company's future growth is based, in 
large part, on the success of this product, the Company's business, results 
of operations and financial condition, and the market price of its securities 
would be materially and adversely affected if Logic Works ModelMart fails to 
achieve market acceptance or if the direct field sales force is unable to 
generate significant sales of this product.


EMERGING MARKET FOR MODEL-DRIVEN DEVELOPMENT TOOLS.  The market for 
client/server database design tools is relatively new and emerging and will 
be subject to frequent and continuing changes in customer preferences and 
technology. The adoption of the Company's products requires acceptance and a 
commitment to a model-driven development approach and the use of the IDEF1X 
notation for data modeling. Although the IDEF1X notation is part of the 
Federal Information Processing Standard, other competing modeling notations 
exist that have been widely accepted, including Information Engineering (IE), 
MERISE and object-oriented notations. The use of the IDEF1X notation may 
require end-users who have adopted other notations to invest in training to 
make effective use of the Company's products. To date, many customers have 
only ordered limited numbers of copies of the Company's software and have not 
yet fully deployed the software in their application development efforts. 
There can be no assurance as to the rate of adoption of client/server 
technology and model-driven development tools or that the Company's products 
will achieve market acceptance among organizations that adopt client/server 
systems.


MANAGEMENT OF GROWTH.  The Company has recently experienced a period of 
significant growth that has placed a significant strain upon its management 
systems and resources.  The Company has recently introduced financial 
budgeting and forecasting procedures and plans to add new financial and 
management controls and reporting systems. The Company is also in the process 
of evaluating and selecting a new management information system to automate 
the Company's financial reporting procedures and to provide capacity for 
additional growth. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to 
implement these reporting and information systems and controls on a timely 
basis. The Company's ability to compete effectively and to 


                                     12
<PAGE>


manage future growth, if any, will require the Company to continue to improve 
its financial and management controls, reporting systems and procedures and 
budgeting and forecasting capabilities on a timely basis and expand, train 
and manage its employee work force. There can be no assurance that the 
Company will be able to do so successfully. The Company's failure to do so 
could have a material adverse effect upon the Company's business, results of 
operations and financial condition.

EXPANSION OF INDIRECT CHANNELS; POTENTIAL FOR CHANNEL CONFLICT.  An integral 
part of the Company's strategy is to expand indirect marketing channels using 
VARs, dealers and distributors. The Company dedicates specific resources to 
develop indirect marketing channels. There can be no assurance that the 
Company will be able to attract and retain VARs, dealers and distributors 
that will be able to market the Company's products effectively and will be 
qualified to provide timely and cost-effective customer support and service. 
The Company's agreements with such third parties do not restrict such third 
parties from marketing competitive products. In many cases, these agreements 
may be terminated by either party at any time without cause. Therefore, there 
can be no assurance that any VAR, dealer or distributor will continue to 
represent the Company's products, and the inability to attract and retain 
important VARs, dealers or distributors could have a material adverse effect 
on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition. In 
addition, if the Company is successful in selling products through these 
channels, the Company expects that any material increase in the Company's 
indirect sales as a percentage of total revenues will materially and 
adversely affect the Company's average selling prices and gross margins due 
to the lower unit prices that the Company receives when selling through 
indirect channels. Selling through indirect channels limits the Company's 
direct contacts with its customers which can hinder the Company's ability to 
accurately forecast sales, evaluate customer satisfaction and recognize 
emerging customer requirements. The Company's strategy of marketing its 
products directly to end-users and indirectly through VARs, dealers and 
distributors may result in distribution channel conflicts. The Company's 
direct sales efforts may compete with those of its indirect channels and to 
the extent different resellers target the same customers, resellers may also 
come into conflict with each other. Although the Company has attempted to 
allocate the markets for its products among its distribution channels in a 
manner to avoid potential conflicts, there can be no assurance that channel 
conflict will not materially and adversely affect its relationships with 
existing VARs, dealers or distributors or adversely affect its ability to 
attract new VARs, dealers and distributors.


RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS AND OPERATIONS.  The Company 
derived approximately $2.3 million, and $1.5 million, or  24.3% and 27.6% of 
its total revenues, from international customers in the three months ended 
March 31, 1996 and 1995 respectively. The Company expects that such revenues 
will continue to represent a significant percentage of its total revenues. 
The Company believes that its continued growth and profitability will require 
expansion of its sales in foreign markets. The Company intends to continue to 
expand its operations outside of the United States and enter additional 
international markets, which will require significant management attention 
and financial resources. Since certain international markets have adopted 
MERISE or other modeling notations which are different from the IDEF1X 
standard used by the Company's products, acceptance of the Company's products 
in certain international markets may require the customer to adopt a new 
modeling standard. In addition, acceptance of the Company's products in 
certain international markets has required, and may in the future require, 
extensive, time-consuming and costly modifications to the Company's products 
to localize the products for use in particular markets. There can be no 
assurance that the Company will be able to achieve market acceptance of its 
products in international markets or maintain or increase international 
market demand for its products and services. To date, substantially all of 
the Company's international license fees and services revenue have been 
denominated in United States dollars. An increase in the value of the United 
States dollar relative to foreign currencies could make the Company's 
products more expensive and, therefore, potentially less competitive in 
foreign markets. The Company does not currently hedge its exposure to foreign 
currency fluctuations. The Company anticipates that, in the future, an 
increasing proportion of the Company's sales will be denominated in foreign 
currencies. In such event, foreign currency translations may contribute to 
significant fluctuations in the Company's results of operations and the 
Company may enter into hedging transactions to mitigate the effects of future 
exchange rate variations. Additional risks inherent in the Company's 
international business activities generally include unexpected changes in 
regulatory requirements, tariffs and other trade barriers, longer accounts 
receivable payment cycles, difficulties in managing international operations, 
potentially adverse tax consequences, restrictions on repatriation of 

                                     13
<PAGE>


earnings, and the burdens of complying with a wide variety of foreign laws. 
There can be no assurance that such factors will not have a material adverse 
effect on the Company's future international revenues and, consequently, on 
the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.


RELIANCE ON CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS.  The Company has established strategic 
relationships with a number of organizations that it believes are important 
to its worldwide sales, marketing and support activities, as well as to its 
product development efforts. The Company's relationships with RDBMS vendors, 
application development tool vendors, and other software vendors, hardware 
vendors and consultants provide marketing and sales opportunities for the 
Company's direct sales force, expand the distribution of its products, and 
broaden its product offerings through product bundling. These relationships 
also assist the Company in keeping pace with the technological and marketing 
developments of major software vendors, and in certain instances, provide the 
Company with technical assistance for the Company's product development 
efforts. There can be no assurance that these companies, most of which have 
significantly greater financial and marketing resources than the Company, 
will not develop or market software products which compete with the Company's 
products in the future or will not otherwise discontinue their relationships 
with or support of the Company. The failure by the Company to maintain its 
existing relationships, or to establish new relationships in the future, 
because of a divergence of interests, acquisition of one or more of these 
third parties or other reason, could have a material adverse effect on the 
Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.


NEW PRODUCTS AND RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE.  The client/server software 
market is characterized by rapid technological change, changes in customer 
requirements, frequent new product introductions and enhancements, and 
emerging industry standards. The introduction of products embodying new 
technologies and the emergence of new industry standards can render existing 
products obsolete and unmarketable. Accordingly, the life cycles of the 
Company's products are difficult to estimate. The Company's future success 
will depend in part upon its ability to enhance current products and to 
develop and introduce new products that respond to evolving customer 
requirements and keep pace with technological developments and opportunities, 
such as the Internet and datawarehousing, and emerging industry standards, 
such as new operating systems, including Windows NT and Windows 95, hardware 
platforms, user interfaces, RDBMS software and third-party application 
development tools. There can be no assurance that the Company will be 
successful in developing and marketing product enhancements or new products 
that respond to technological change, changes in customer requirements, or 
emerging industry standards, that the Company will not experience 
difficulties that could delay or prevent the successful development, 
introduction and marketing of new products and enhancements, or that any new 
products or enhancements that it may introduce will achieve market 
acceptance. The inability of the Company for technological or other reasons, 
to develop and introduce new products or enhancements in a timely manner in 
response to changing customer requirements, technological change or emerging 
industry standards, would have a material adverse effect on the Company's 
business, results of operations and financial condition.


RISK OF PRODUCT DEFECTS OR DEVELOPMENT DELAYS.  Software products such as 
those offered by the Company often encounter development delays and may 
contain undetected errors or failures when introduced or when new versions 
are released. The Company has in the past experienced delays in the 
development of software of up to one year in certain circumstances. Although 
the Company has not experienced any material adverse effects resulting from 
any such errors or delays to date, there can be no assurance that, despite 
testing by the Company and by current and potential customers, errors will 
not be found in new products or releases after commencement of commercial 
shipments, or that the Company will not experience development delays, 
resulting in delays in the shipment of products and a loss of or delay in 
market acceptance, which could have a material adverse effect on the 
Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.


DEPENDENCE ON PROPRIETARY RIGHTS; RISKS OF INFRINGEMENT.  The Company's 
success is heavily dependent upon its proprietary technology. The Company 
regards its software as proprietary, and relies primarily on a combination of 
contract, copyright and trademark law, trade secrets, confidentiality 
agreements and contractual provisions to protect its proprietary rights. The 
Company has no patents or patent applications pending, and existing trade 
secrets and copyright laws afford only limited protection. Despite the 
Company's 

                                     14
<PAGE>

efforts to protect its proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may 
attempt to copy aspects of the Company's products or to obtain and use 
information that the Company regards as proprietary. Policing unauthorized 
use of the Company's products is difficult, and while the Company is unable 
to determine the extent to which piracy of its software products exists, 
software piracy can be expected to be a persistent problem, particularly in 
international markets and as a result of the growing use of the Internet. The 
Company may in the future make source code for one or more of its products 
available to certain of its customers and strategic partners which may 
increase the likelihood of misappropriation or other misuse of the Company's 
software. In selling its products, the Company relies primarily on "shrink 
wrap" licenses that are not signed by licensees and, therefore, it is 
possible that such licenses may be unenforceable under the laws of certain 
jurisdictions. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect 
the Company's proprietary rights to the same extent as do the laws of the 
United States. There can be no assurance that the steps taken by the Company 
to protect its proprietary rights will be adequate or that the Company's 
competitors will not independently develop technologies that are 
substantially equivalent or superior to the Company's technologies. 
Third-party software underlying the Company's RPTwin product is licensed on a 
non-exclusive, fully paid-up basis and such license is subject to termination 
by such third-party only in the event of the Company's breach or bankruptcy. 
However, there can be no assurance that such license will not be revoked or 
terminated in the future, which could have a material adverse effect on the 
Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.


     The Company has licensed certain technology from Manager Software Products,
Inc. (MSP), which it resells as its MSP Migrator for ERwin.  The agreement 
expires on December 31, 1997 unless renewed by the parties.  There can be no 
assurance that "MSP" will continue to support this product in a manner 
acceptable to the Company or that this agreement will be renewed by MSP on 
terms acceptable to the Company.


     The Company is not aware that any of its products, trademarks or other 
proprietary rights infringe the proprietary rights of third parties. However, 
there can be no assurance that third parties will not assert infringement 
claims against the Company in the future with respect to current or future 
products. As the number of software products in the industry increases and 
the functionality of these products further overlaps, the Company believes 
that software developers may become increasingly subject to infringement 
claims. Any such claims, with or without merit, can be time consuming and 
expensive to defend, cause product shipment delays or require the Company to 
enter into royalty or licensing agreements. Such royalty agreements, if 
required, may not be available on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all, 
which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results 
of operations and financial condition.


PRODUCT LIABILITY.  The Company's license agreements with its customers 
typically contain provisions designed to limit the Company's exposure to 
potential product liability claims. In selling its products, the Company 
relies primarily on "shrink wrap" licenses that are not signed by licensees 
and, therefore, it is possible that such licenses may be unenforceable under 
the laws of certain jurisdictions. As a result, it is possible that the 
limitation of liability provisions contained in the Company's license 
agreements may not be effective. Although the Company has not experienced any 
product liability claims to date, the sale and support of products by the 
Company may entail the risk of such claims. A successful product liability 
claim brought against the Company could have a material adverse effect upon 
the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.


DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL.  The Company's future performance depends in 
significant part upon the continued service of its key technical, sales and 
senior management personnel, none of whom is bound by an employment 
agreement. The loss of the services of one or more of the Company's executive 
officers or other key employees could have a material adverse effect on the 
Company's business, results of operations and financial condition. The 
Company is a party to employment agreements with certain executive officers 
and key employees. The Company's future success also depends on its 
continuing ability to attract and retain highly qualified technical, sales 
and managerial personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense, and 
there can be no assurance that the Company can retain its key technical, 
sales and managerial employees or that it can attract, assimilate or retain 
other highly qualified technical, sales and managerial personnel in the 
future.

                                     15

CONTROL BY EXISTING STOCKHOLDERS. The Company's officers, directors and 
affilated entities together beneficially own approximately 64% of the 
outstanding shares of Common Stock. As a result, these stockholders are able 
to exercise control over matters requiring stockholder approval, including 
the election of directors, and mergers, acquisitions, consolidations and 
sales of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company. This may 
prevent or discourage tender offers for the Company's Common Stock unless the 
terms are approved by such stockholders. See "Security Ownership of Certain 
Beneficial Owners and Management" in the Company's Proxy Statement dated April
10, 1996.
