Basis of Presentation

The Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations
of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Pursuant to these rules and regulations, the Company has condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures it normally includes in its annual consolidated financial
statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). In managements opinion, the Company has made all adjustments (consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments, except as otherwise indicated)
necessary to fairly present its financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The Companys interim period operating results do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the
full fiscal year. These financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in Actuates Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2009 filed with the SEC on March 10, 2010.

To prepare financial statements in conformity with GAAP,
management must make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates and may result in material
effects on the Companys operating results and financial position.

The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Actuate and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. Actuate has offices throughout North America, Europe and Asia including offices in the United States, Canada, Switzerland, United Kingdom, Germany, France, Singapore, Japan
and China. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

As of March 31, 2010, Actuate owns
approximately 88% of the outstanding voting stock of Actuate Japan Company Ltd. (Actuate Japan). The Company has consolidated the results of Actuate Japan from the date that it became the majority shareholder, which occurred in fiscal
year 2000. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2009, we adopted new accounting guidance for non-controlling interests in subsidiaries as issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB). The new accounting guidance
establishes accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary, which is sometimes referred to as a minority
interest, is a third-party ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as a component of equity in the consolidated financial statements. Among other requirements, the new guidance requires the consolidated statement of
income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the non-controlling interest. The new guidance also requires disclosure on the face of the consolidated statement of income of the amounts of consolidated
net income attributable to the parent and to the non-controlling interest. The adoption of this accounting guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Actuate Japans financial results are reflected in each revenue, cost of revenue and expense category in the consolidated statement
of income. Through March 31, 2010, the operating performance and liquidity requirements of Actuate Japan had not been material to the Companys results of operations or financial condition. Although the Company plans to maintain and expand
selling and marketing activities in Japan to add new customers, the future liquidity requirements of Actuate Japan are not expected to be significant.

Revenue Recognition

Actuate generates revenues from the sales of software licenses and related services. The Company receives software license revenues from
licensing its products directly to end-users and indirectly through resellers, system integrators and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). The Company receives service revenues from maintenance contracts, consulting services and training that
Actuate performs for customers.

For sales to end-user customers, Actuate recognizes license revenues when a license agreement
has been signed by both parties or a definitive agreement has been received from the customer, the product has been physically shipped or electronically made available, there are no unusual uncertainties surrounding the product acceptance, the fees
are fixed or determinable, collectability is probable and vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value exists to allocate the fee to the undelivered elements of the arrangement. Vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value of sales to end
users is based on the price charged when an element is sold separately. Actuate has not established vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value for its licenses. Therefore, the Company recognizes revenues from arrangements with multiple
elements involving software licenses under the residual method which means the full fair value is allocated to the undelivered elements while the remaining value of the arrangement is allocated to the delivered elements. If the license agreement
contains payment terms that would indicate that the fee is not fixed or determinable, revenues are recognized as the payments become due and payable, assuming that all other revenue recognition criteria are met.

Actuate enters into reseller and distributor arrangements that typically give such distributors and resellers the right to distribute its
products to end-users headquartered in specified territories. Actuate recognizes license revenues from arrangements with U.S. resellers and distributors when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement with the reseller or distributor, the
product has been shipped, the fees are fixed or determinable, and collectability is probable and vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value exists to allocate the fee to the undelivered elements of the arrangement. Actuate recognizes license
revenues from arrangements with international resellers and distributors upon receipt of evidence of sell-through and when all other revenue recognition criteria have been met. If it is not practical to obtain evidence of sell-through, the Company
defers revenues until the end-user has been identified and cash has been received. In some instances there is a timing difference between when a reseller completes its sale to the end-user and the period in which Actuate receives the documentation
required for revenue recognition. Because Actuate delays revenue recognition until the reporting period in which the required documentation is obtained, it may recognize revenue in a period subsequent to the period in which the reseller completes
the sale to its end-user.

Actuate also enters into OEM arrangements that provide for license fees based on the bundling or
embedding of its products with the OEMs products. These arrangements generally provide for fixed, irrevocable royalty payments. Actuate recognizes license fee revenues from U.S. and international OEM arrangements when a license agreement has
been executed by both parties, the product has been shipped, there are no unusual uncertainties surrounding the product acceptance, the fees are fixed or determinable, collectability is probable and vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value
exists to allocate the fee to the undelivered elements of the arrangement.

Actuate also has a software-as-a-service offering
called OnPerformance. Actuate recognizes revenue on its OnPerformance licenses ratably over the term of the underlying arrangement.

The Company typically establishes vendor specific objective evidence of fair value under a bell-shaped curve approach.
However, for certain types of license transactions, including OEM and site licenses, the Company uses a stated maintenance renewal approach.

Credit-worthiness and collectability for end-users are assessed based on payment history and current credit profile. When a customer is
not deemed credit-worthy, revenues are deferred and recognized upon cash receipt.

Actuate recognizes maintenance revenues,
which consist of fees for ongoing support and unspecified product updates, ratably over the term of the contract, typically one year. Consulting revenues are primarily related to standard implementation and configuration. Training revenues are
generated from classes offered at the Companys headquarters and customer locations. Revenues from consulting and training services are typically recognized as the services are performed. When a contract includes both license and service
elements, the license fee is typically recognized on delivery of the software, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria are met, provided services do not include significant customization or modification of the product and are not otherwise
essential to the functionality of the software.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company has various types of share-based compensation plans. These plans are administered by the compensation committee of the Board
of Directors, which selects persons to receive awards and determines the number of shares subject to each award and the terms, conditions, performance measures and other provisions of the award. Readers should refer to Note 8 of the Companys
consolidated financial statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, for additional information related to these share-based compensation plans. Share-based compensation expense and the related income
tax benefit in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in connection with stock options, restricted stock units and the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) for three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 were as follows (in
thousands):

The fair value of each option award is estimated on
the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. We estimated the expected term of options granted by analyzing actual historical experience of exercises and cancellations under our plan. We also looked at the average length of
time in which our current outstanding options are expected to be exercised or cancelled based on past experience and the vesting and contractual term. We estimated the volatility of our common stock by using historical volatility over the calculated
expected term. We based the risk-free interest rate that we use in the option valuation model on the published Treasury rate. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future and therefore used an expected dividend yield of
zero in the option valuation model. The assumptions used to estimate the fair value of stock options granted and stock purchase rights granted under our Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the Purchase Plan) for the three months ended
March 31, 2010 and 2009 are as follows:

Effective
January 2010, restricted stock units (RSUs) were granted to senior management as part of the Companys annual incentive compensation program under the Amended and Restated 1998 Equity Incentive Plan. RSUs are valued based on the
closing price of the Companys common stock on the grant date. In general, restricted stock units vest over four years with annual cliff vesting and are subject to the employees continuing service to the Company. For each restricted stock
unit granted under the 1998 Plan, a share reserve ratio is applied for the purpose of determining the remaining number of shares reserved for future grants under the plan. The share reserve ratio is 2:1 for each restricted stock unit granted, and an
equivalent of 2 shares will be deducted from the share reserve for each restricted stock unit issued. Likewise, each forfeited restricted stock unit increases the number of shares available for issuance by the applicable rate at the time of
forfeiture. As of March 31, 2010, a total of 164,750 RSUs were issued and granted to the Companys senior management. This program will result in an incremental increase in the Companys stock-based compensation expense in fiscal year
2010 and beyond.

Net Income Per Share

Basic net income per share has been computed using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
Diluted net income per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares consist of the shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and
unvested restricted stock units using the treasury stock method and dilutive ESPP shares. ESPP shares were not included in the calculation of the common equivalent shares for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 as the impact of these shares in the
weighted share calculations were immaterial.

Under the treasury stock method, stock options with
exercise prices exceeding the average share price of the Companys common stock during the applicable period are excluded from the diluted earnings per share computation. The weighted-average number of shares excluded from the calculation of
diluted net income was 4,272,983 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. No restricted stock units were excluded from the diluted earnings per share computation as they were all dilutive for the three months ended March 31, 2010. In the
first quarter of fiscal year 2009, the Company excluded 10,662,514 stock options from its calculation of weighted-average common shares used in computing dilutive net income per share. Such stock options, had they been dilutive, would have been
included in the computation of diluted net income per share.

The weighted average exercise price of excluded stock options
was $6.39 and $5.06 for the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company calculates its interim income tax provision in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
authoritative guidance on obligations for uncertain tax positions. At the end of each interim period, the Company estimates the annual effective tax rate and applies that rate to its ordinary quarterly earnings. The tax expense or benefit related to
significant, unusual, or extraordinary items that will be separately reported or reported net of their related tax effect, are recognized in the interim period in which those items occur. In addition, the effect of changes in enacted tax laws or
rates or tax status is recognized in the interim period in which the change occurs.

The computation of the annual estimated
effective tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and significant judgment including, but not limited to, the expected operating income for the year, projections of the proportion of income earned and taxed in foreign
jurisdictions, permanent and temporary differences, and the likelihood of recovering deferred tax assets generated in the current year. The accounting estimates used to compute the provision for income taxes may change as new events occur, more
experience is acquired, additional information is obtained or as the tax environment changes.

A valuation allowance is
required, if based on the weight of available evidence it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the recorded deferred tax assets will not be realized in future periods. In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets, in
full or in part, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including our past operating results, the existence of cumulative losses in the most recent years and our forecast of future taxable income on a jurisdiction by jurisdiction
basis. In determining future taxable income, we are responsible for assumptions utilized including the amount of state, federal and international pre-tax operating income, the reversal of temporary differences and the implementation of feasible and
prudent tax planning strategies. These assumptions require significant judgment about the forecasts of future taxable income and are consistent with the plans and estimates we are using to manage the underlying businesses.

We continue to believe there is sufficient evidence to support the utilization of certain deferred tax assets. If sufficient positive
evidence exists and it is more likely than not that the benefit will be realized with respect to the remaining deferred tax assets, we will release the valuation allowance. This adjustment to the valuation allowance would decrease tax
expense. During the first quarter of fiscal 2010, we released $1.6 million of a valuation allowance on Canadian deferred tax assets. Likewise, if there is a reduction in the projection of future U.S. and foreign income, we may need to increase the
valuation allowance. Any increase in the valuation allowance would increase tax expense in the period such a determination was made.

The Company only recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be
sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such positions are then measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50%
likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.

Comprehensive Income

Other comprehensive income includes currency translation adjustments and unrealized losses on investments that are not included in net
income, but rather are recorded directly in stockholders equity. Comprehensive income during the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and 2009 was comprised of the following (in thousands):

The Company had approximately $61,000 in foreign currency translation losses in the first quarter of fiscal
2010. This loss related primarily to the translation and consolidation of its European and Canadian operations. These losses were significantly lower during the first quarter of fiscal 2010 as compared to the losses reported in fiscal 2009 due
primarily to the strength of the British Pound, the Swiss Franc and the Canadian Dollar against the U.S. Dollar in the first quarter of fiscal 2010.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance to amend the disclosure requirements related
to recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The guidance requires new disclosures on the transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1 (quoted prices in active market for identical assets or liabilities) and Level 2
(significant other observable inputs) of the fair value measurement hierarchy, including the reasons and the timing of the transfers. Additionally, the guidance requires a roll forward of activities on purchases, sales, issuance, and
settlements of the assets and liabilities measured using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 fair value measurements). The guidance became effective for us with the reporting period beginning January 1, 2010, except for the disclosure on
the roll forward activities for Level 3 fair value measurements, which will become effective for us with the reporting period beginning January 1, 2011. Adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.
See Note 4  Fair Value Measurements of Financial Assets and Liabilities.

2. Acquisition of Xenos Group Inc.

On February 1, 2010, we completed the acquisition of Xenos Group Inc. (Xenos), a provider of high-performance software
solutions that utilize the scalable Xenos Enterprise Server(TM) and its components to process, extract, transform, repurpose and personalize high volumes of data and documents for storage, real-time access, ePresentment, printing and delivery in
numerous formats across multiple channels. By readily repurposing, integrating with and extending the business value of existing technology, infrastructure and business applications, Xenos solutions empower organizations to adapt to changing market
demands. They also improve operational efficiency, enhance business processes, reduce risk for compliance management and increase employee productivity with lowered total cost of ownership both for the enterprise and for its customers.

The acquisition was concluded for total consideration of approximately $34.3 million ($27.3 million net of $6.9 million of Xenos cash at
the time of the acquisition). Under the terms of the agreement, we completed our tender offer to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Xenos common stock at a price of CAD 3.50 per outstanding share. The transaction was accounted for using
the purchase method of accounting. We have included the financial results of Xenos in our Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on the acquisition date.

Under the terms of the Xenos stock option plan, any
outstanding options held as of the date of acquisition became immediately vested and exercisable. In connection with the acquisition, each holder of Xenos stock options was offered one of three options: 1) to surrender the Xenos options in order to
receive cash equal to the difference between CAD $3.50 and the exercise price of the options for each option surrendered, 2) to exercise the options in order to receive Common Shares, effective immediately prior to the acquisition date. Those Common
Shares would then be acquired by Actuate at a price of CDN$3.50 per share, or 3) to exchange the Options for equivalent Actuate options to purchase common shares of Actuate. The Xenos options would be exchanged for Actuate Options at a calculated
exchange ratio and are exercisable for Actuate Shares. The exchanged options would be fully vested and be exercisable on the day after the acquisition. Other terms of the Options would remain the same.

A total of 707,000 options were surrendered under option number 1 presented above. A net of $1.1 million in cash was paid to the option
holders related to these surrendered options. This net amount was included in the total purchase consideration.

We converted
options to purchase 30,750 shares of Xenos common stock into options to purchase approximately 19,025 shares of Actuate common stock under option 3 listed above. The estimated fair value of the stock options assumed and converted that is included in
the preliminary purchase price equals $59,784. The estimated fair value of these options was determined using a Black-Scholes Merton option valuation model with the following assumptions: volatility of 66.73%; weighted average risk-free interest
rate of .88%; and a dividend yield of 0%. The underlying stock price used in valuing the options was $5.31, which was the closing price for Actuate Stock on February 1, 2010.

Direct transaction costs totaling approximately $890,000 were incurred between the fourth quarter of 2009 and the first quarter of 2010
related to the Xenos acquisition. These costs include investment banking fees, legal and accounting fees, and other external costs directly related to the acquisition. All costs were directly expensed to the consolidated statements of income as
incurred.

Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation

Under the purchase accounting method,the total preliminary purchase price was allocated to Xenoss net tangible and
intangible assets based upon their estimated fair values as of February 1, 2010. The excess purchase price over the value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets was recorded as goodwill.

The table below represents the allocation of the preliminary purchase price to the acquired net assets of Xenos based on their estimated
fair values as of February 1, 2010 and the associated estimated useful lives at that date. We have made estimates and assumptions that are subject to change within the purchase price allocation period as valuations are finalized. Also, as with
acquisitions that we have undertaken in the past, we have initiated structural changes in our corporate structure in order to incorporate the Xenos entities. These changes in our organizational structure are ongoing and could also affect our
estimates and assumptions.

Net tangible assets and liabilitiesXenoss tangible assets and
liabilities as of February 1, 2010 were adjusted to their estimated fair value as necessary. Among the net tangible assets assumed were $6.9 million in cash and cash equivalents and $1.8 million in trade receivables.

Identifiable intangible assetsExisting technology acquired primarily consists of Xenoss Enterprise Server, Xenos D2e,
Xenos terminalONE, and Xenos InfoWeb. The preliminary estimated fair value of the existing technology was determined based on the present value of the expected cash flows to be generated by each existing technology. Customer contracts and
relationships consist of Xenoss contractual relationships and customer loyalty related to their customers as well as partner customers that resell Xenoss services to end users. We expect to amortize the fair value of these intangible
assets on a straight-line basis over their respective estimated useful lives.

In-process research and
developmentIn-process research and development (IPR&D) represents the fair value of a development project that was underway at Xenos and was not yet completed as of the date of the acquisition. At the date of the
acquisition the development team was still in the final stages of development and was in the process of performing final fixes to the software and finalizing minor functionality. The underlying product is scheduled to be generally released on
May 17, 2010. The estimated fair value was determined by estimating the net cash flows expected to be generated from the project and discounting the net cash flows to their present value. Once the project is completed, we expect to amortize the
fair value of the intangible asset on a straight-line basis over the respective estimated useful life of seven years.

GoodwillGoodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the underlying acquired net tangible and
intangible assets. The factors that contributed to the recognition of goodwill included securing buyer-specific synergies that increase revenue and profits and are not otherwise available to a marketplace participant.

Pro Forma Results

The financial information in the table below summarizes the combined results of operations of Actuate and Xenos, on a pro forma basis, as
though the companies had been combined as of the beginning of the periods presented. The pro forma financial information is presented for informational purposes only and is not indicative of the results of operations that would have been achieved if
the acquisition had taken place earlier or of results that may occur in the future.

The annual data in the following pro forma
financial table combines the historical results for Actuate for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 and the historical results for Xenos for the twelve months ended September 30, 2009. The quarterly data in the following pro

3. Investment in Actuate Japan

Non-controlling (minority) InterestThe minority shareholder of Actuate Japan has a non-expiring option
to put its equity interest (non-controlling interest) in Actuate Japan to the Company and the Company has the option to call the Non-controlling interest. The redeemable non-controlling interest as of March 31, 2010 was approximately 12% of the
total equity interest. If the non-controlling interest shareholder chose to put these remaining shares to the Company, Actuate would be required to pay approximately $596,000 to purchase these shares. The Company measures and discloses a redeemable
non-controlling interest in accordance with the policy discussed above at the calculated redemption value of the put option embedded in the non-controlling interest. The non-controlling shareholder is also a distributor of Actuate products in Japan,
although the volume of revenues sold through this distributor has historically been immaterial to Actuate Corporation. The Company consolidated 100% of the operating results and all investments in the subsidiary are eliminated in consolidation.
Through March 31, 2010, the operating performance and liquidity requirements of Actuate Japan had not been material to the Companys results of operations or financial condition. Although the Company plans to maintain and expand our
selling and marketing activities in Japan to add new customers, the future liquidity requirements of Actuate Japan is not expected to be significant in the near future. As of the date of this filing, the remaining non-controlling shareholder has not
notified the Company of any intent to exercise its put option.

4. Fair Value Measurements of Financial Assets and Liabilities

The Company adopted FASBs authoritative guidance related to the fair value measurements of financial instruments effective
January 1, 2008. Under this standard, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. For certain of our
financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and other current liabilities the carrying amounts approximate their fair value due to the relatively short maturity of these
balances. We also believe that the carrying value of our note payable approximates fair value as the interest rate on this note is based on a floating market rate.

The Company has investments that are valued in accordance with the provisions of the authoritative guidance that addresses fair value
measurements. This guidance establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available.
The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the reliability of inputs as follows:



| |  |  | Level 1Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that the Company has the ability to access.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 2Valuations based inputs on other than quoted prices included within level 1, for which all significant inputs are observable, either
directly or indirectly.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 3Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following table represents information about the Companys investments measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of
March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 (in thousands).

##### Table of Contents

ACTUATE CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)

(Unaudited)



Certain items in the table above are classified as Level 2 items because quoted prices
in an active market are not readily accessible for those specific financial assets, and the Company may have relied on alternative pricing methods that do not rely exclusively on quoted prices to determine the fair value of the investments.

Our investment portfolio includes Auction Rate Securities (ARS). They are usually found in the form of municipal
bonds, a pool of student loans or collateralized debt obligations whose interest rates are subject to reset through an auction process. The ARS held by us are primarily backed by highly rated municipal issuers. As of March 31,
2010, the Company had approximately $16.5 million in ARS at par value. Since February 2008, substantially all auctions for ARS have failed as a result of the negative overall capital market conditions, meaning that there is not
enough demand to sell the securities at auction. While the Company continues to earn interest on its ARS investments at the maximum contractual rate, these investments are not currently trading and therefore do not currently have a readily
determinable market value.

In November 2008, the Company elected to participate in a rights offering by UBS, the
Companys investment broker, which provides Actuate with rights (the Put Option) to sell UBS its ARS portfolio at the $16.5 million par value, at any time during a two-year sale period beginning June 30, 2010. By electing to
participate in the rights offering, the Company granted UBS the right, exercisable at any time prior to June 30, 2010 or during the two-year sale period, to purchase or cause the sale of our ARS (the Call Right). UBS has stated that
it will only exercise the Call Right for the purpose of restructurings, dispositions or other solutions that will provide their clients with par value for their ARS. UBS has agreed to pay their clients the par value of their ARS within one day of
settlement of any Call Right transaction. Notwithstanding the Call Right, the Company is permitted to sell ARS to parties other than UBS, in which case the Put Option attached to the ARS that are sold would be extinguished.

The Company has valued the Put Option at the approximate present value of the difference between the fair market value and the par value
of the ARS.

The Company values all of its Level 3 investments using an income approach. The Companys ARS are valued
based on a discounted cash flow model using various assumptions for expected term, discount rate, credit premium and liquidity premium. At March 31, 2010, the Company has classified the ARS and the related Put Option as current investments on
its Consolidated Balance Sheet. This classification was based on the intent and ability of the Company to sell the ARS back to UBS as soon as the Put Option allows, which is currently expected to be June 30, 2010.

At this time, the Company has the ability to hold all of its short-term investments to
maturity and does not intend to sell any of its short-term investments in an unrealized loss position, other than its ARS and Put Option. The Company believes that, due to the nature of the Companys investments, the financial condition of the
issuer and the Companys ability to hold these investments through these short-term loss positions, factors would not indicate that these unrealized losses on investments, other than ARS and the Put Option, should be viewed as
other-than-temporary.

Short-term investments, other than ARS, are classified as available-for-sale and are recorded on the
Companys Consolidated Balance Sheet at fair market value with unrealized gains or losses reported as a separate component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). At March 31, 2010, Actuate has classified all of its securities
with original maturities beyond 90 days as short-term investments, even though the stated maturity dates may be one year or more beyond the current balance sheet date as these investments, with exception of ARS, remain highly liquid and available
for use in current operations.

5. Restructuring Charges

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2010, the Company implemented restructuring actions that resulted in an aggregate charge of
$387,000 and elimination of 17 positions worldwide, across all levels primarily within the sales and marketing organization. Also included in the aggregate charges for the first quarter of 2010 was a $49,000 idle facilities charge related to the
closure of one of our sales facilities in Europe.

Historically, restructuring charges have included costs associated with
reductions in workforce, exits of idle facilities and disposals of fixed assets. These restructuring charges were based on actual and estimated costs incurred including estimates of sublease income on portions of our idle facilities that we
periodically update based on market conditions and in accordance with our restructuring plans. These estimates were impacted by the rules governing the termination of employees, especially those in foreign countries.

The following table summarizes the restructuring accrual activity during the three months ended March 31, 2010 (in thousands):

IPR&D represents the fair value of a project that
is currently underway at Xenos. Once the project is completed, we expect to amortize the fair value of this intangible asset on a straight-line basis over the respective estimated useful life of seven years. The underlying product associated with
this project is scheduled to be generally released on May 17, 2010.

Amortization expense of purchased technology and
other intangible assets was approximately $599,000 and $225,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Of this total, approximately $238,000 and $55,000 was related to the amortization of purchased technology.
Amortization of purchased technology is included in cost of license fees in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. The expected remaining annual amortization expense is summarized as follows (in thousands):

8. Contingencies

General

We are engaged in certain legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. Although there can be no assurance as to the outcome
of such litigation, we believe we have adequate legal defenses. We may continue to incur significant legal costs in future quarters as we proceed in these legal actions. Also, it is possible that the ultimate outcome of any of these actions could
have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Revolving credit line

In November 2008, the Company entered into a four year revolving line of credit agreement with Wells Fargo, LLC (Credit
Agreement). The Credit Agreement allows for cash borrowings and letters of credit under a secured revolving credit facility of up to a maximum of $50.0 million, but not to exceed 80% of the Companys recurring maintenance revenue. The
Company used $30.0 million of the proceeds from the Credit Agreement in the tender offer it completed in December 2008. On February 1, 2010 the Company borrowed an additional $10.0 million under the Credit Agreement to fund the acquisition of
Xenos. The acquisition was valued at approximately $34.3 million and was funded using a combination of cash reserves and borrowings available under the Credit Agreement. As of March 31, 2010, the Company owed $40.0 million on the credit
facility. There are no minimum pay-down requirements under the terms of this credit facility so long as the Company remains in compliance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. Total costs associated with the facility, including legal and closing
fees, amounted to approximately $1.1 million. Of these total costs, approximately $1.0 million was paid as of March 31, 2010. The remaining balance is comprised of a commitment fee totaling $125,000 that is due and payable on the third
anniversary of the agreement, which will be in November of fiscal year 2011. These costs are being capitalized and amortized over four years in the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheet as current assets if amortized within one year or
non-current assets if amortized beyond one year.

As of March 31, 2010, the remaining balance
available under the revolving credit facility was approximately $10.0 million. Interest is based on a floating rate plus an applicable margin based on the outstanding balance of the amount drawn under the Credit Agreement. The floating rate is
determined at the Companys election and may either be (i) London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or (ii) the greater of the Federal Funds Rate
plusan applicable margin and the Prime Rate. If the
Companys usage of the credit line exceeds 80% of its trailing four quarters of recurring maintenance revenue, or if the sum of available funds under the Credit Agreement plus available cash is less than $10.0 million the Company is required to
meet certain minimum income targets and be subject to a limit on annual capital expenditures. As of March 31, 2010, the Company was able to meet the 80% test as well as the $10.0 million minimum cash threshold and was therefore not subject to
the income or the capital expenditures covenants. The Company is required to make interest payments and pay an unused commitment fee on a monthly basis. The Company incurred approximately $345,000 of interest expense primarily associated with the
credit facility in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 compared with $286,000 of interest expense incurred during the first quarter of fiscal year 2009. The increase in the interest expense in fiscal 2010 was due to $10.0 million in additional
borrowings under the credit facility which was used to fund the acquisition of Xenos in February 2010.

The Credit Agreement
contains financial covenants, which, among other things, require the Company to maintain specified financial ratios and impose certain limitations with respect to lines of business, mergers, investments and acquisitions, additional indebtedness,
distributions, guarantees, liens and encumbrances. The Company was in compliance with these financial and non-financial covenants at March 31, 2010. The Companys indebtedness under the Credit Agreement is secured by a lien on
(i) substantially all of its assets and the assets of Actuate International Corporation and (ii) by a pledge of all of its stock and a portion of the stock of each of its subsidiaries.

The Company believes that cash flows from operations will be sufficient to meet its current debt service requirements for interest and
any required prepayments under the Credit Agreement. However, if such cash flow is not sufficient, the Company may be required to issue additional debt or equity securities, refinance its obligations, or take other actions in order to make such
scheduled payments. The Company cannot be sure that it would be able to effect any such transactions on favorable terms, if at all and failure to do so may cause an event of default under the Credit Agreement, which will have a material adverse
effect on the Companys business, operating results and financial conditions.

Operating Lease Commitments

On September 1, 2007, the Company entered into a five year sublease agreement with a third party for approximately 83,000 square feet
of office space in the Bridgepointe Campus in San Mateo, California. This lease is operating in nature, commenced on August 1, 2007 and ends on July 31, 2012. In addition, the lease provided for approximately nine months of free rent (rent
holiday) and approximately $600,000 in landlord incentives applied by Actuate towards construction of improvements. As a result, the Company straight-lined its rent expense and recorded a deferred rent liability on its consolidated balance sheet. At
March 31, 2010, the deferred rent liability balance totaled approximately $856,000 and this balance declines through 2012 when contractual cash payments exceed the straight-line lease expense. Of this total deferred rent liability balance,
approximately $332,000 was classified under the current accrued liabilities section of our consolidated balance sheet with the remaining portion of approximately $524,000 classified under other long term liabilities section of our consolidated
balance sheet at March 31, 2010. The incentives were applied to leasehold improvements completed during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007. Actuate also leases an additional 50,400 square feet in one facility in South San Francisco,
California. The lease on this additional facility will expire in April 2011 and this facility is being entirely subleased. Actuate also leases office facilities in various locations in the United States and abroad. All facilities are leased under
operating leases.

In prior periods, Actuate pledged $426,000 of restricted cash as collateral for standby letters of credit
that guarantee its contractual obligations relating to its corporate headquarter facilities located at the Bridgepointe Campus in San Mateo, California. This restricted cash remains classified as Other Assets in the accompanying Consolidated Balance
Sheet as of March 31, 2010.

Stock Option Plans

Beginning in January 2010, an individual who first joins the Board of Directors as a non-employee director will be awarded an option to
purchase 25,000 shares of the Corporations Common Stock and a restricted stock unit award covering 12,500 shares of the Corporations Common Stock. Starting with the 2010 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, each continuing non-employee
director will be awarded an option to purchase 16,000 shares of the Corporations Common Stock and a restricted stock unit award covering 8,000 shares of the Corporations Common Stock at each Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Each option
will vest upon the non-employee directors continued Board service through the first anniversary of the award date. Each restricted stock unit award will vest upon the non-employee directors continued Board service through the 13-month
anniversary of the award date. All grants will be made under the 1998 Plan. Each restricted stock unit award and each option award will vest in full on an accelerated basis upon (i) an approved acquisition of the Corporation by merger or
consolidation, (ii) a sale of all or substantially all of the Corporations assets, (iii) the successful completion of a tender or exchange offer for securities possessing more than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined
voting power of the Corporations outstanding securities, or (iv) the death or disability of the optionee while serving as a member of the Board of Directors. Each restricted stock unit award will entitle the recipient to one share of the
Corporations Common Stock on the date when the applicable vesting requirements for that unit are satisfied. A non-employee director may, in accordance with applicable tax laws and regulations, elect to defer the issuance of the shares of
Common Stock that vest pursuant to his or her restricted stock unit award until his or her cessation of Board service.

All
directors are eligible to receive option awards under Actuates Amended and Restated 1998 Equity Incentive Plan (the 1998 Plan). In January 2009, the Board of Directors resolved that starting with the grants awards to be made at the
2009 Annual Meeting of Stockholders all grants awards to the non-employee directors shall be made under the 1998 Plan rather than the Directors Plan. All other terms of the non-employee director program, including vesting schedules for the initial
grant award and the automatic annual award remain unchanged.

In connection with the Xenos acquisition, Actuates Board
of Directors duly authorized the issuance of stock options to eligible employees from the Companys 1998 Equity Incentive Plan. A total of 573,800 non-statutory stock options were issued in February of 2010 with the price of $5.31. Each grant
shall fully vest in four years with 25% cliff vesting at the end of year one and the remaining balance to vest in thirty-six successive monthly installments.

As an employee retention incentive, Actuate also invited Xenos employees who were holders of Xenos Options to exchange any Options that
they did not exercise in connection with the Offer for options to purchase shares of common stock of Actuate on a tax-free rollover basis (an Option Exchange). The replacement options issued by Actuate would have the same intrinsic
value as the options given up by Xenos. On February 1, 2010, 30,750 Xenos options were exchanged for 19,025 Actuate options with exercise prices ranging from $2.04 to $3.54. These options were fully vested and exercisable at the date of
exchange.

All options are subject to the same vesting schedule (twenty-five percent of the option
shares will vest on the one year anniversary of the option grant date and the remaining option shares will vest in thirty-six equal monthly installments over the thirty-six month period measured from the first anniversary of the option grant date,
provided the optionee continues to provide services to the Corporation through each applicable vesting date) and all have ten year terms.

Shares issued as a result of the exercise of options under any of our plans would be fulfilled through shares currently in our existing
pools. Total authorized but unissued shares were 31,115,628 as of March 31, 2010.

The weighted average grant date fair
value of options granted during the quarter ended March 31, 2010 was $2.54 per option. Upon the exercise of options, the Company issues new common stock from its authorized shares. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the
quarter ended March 31, 2010 was $1.6 million.

Maintenance and support consists of first year maintenance and support services associated with the initial
purchase of Actuates software, and the renewal of annual maintenance and support services from customers who purchased Actuates software in prior periods. The maintenance and support period is generally 12 months and revenues are
typically recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the maintenance and support period.

Other deferred revenue
consists of deferred license, training and consulting fees generated from arrangements, which did not meet some or all of the revenue recognition criteria of SOP No. 97-2 and are, therefore, deferred until all revenue recognition criteria have
been met.

10. Subsequent Events

On April 30, 2010, the Board of Directors approved an on-going extension of the Companys stock repurchase program. This
extension authorized management to make additional repurchases. Under this repurchase program, the Company is authorized to repurchase Actuate common stock of up to an aggregate of $5.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2010. From the end
of the first quarter of this year through May 6, 2010, the Company has repurchased a total of 40,400 shares for a total of approximately $185,000 in the open market under this stock repurchase plan.

We began shipping our first product in January 1996. We sell software products through two primary means: (i) directly to end-user
customers through our direct sales force and (ii) through indirect channel partners such as OEMs, resellers and system integrators. OEMs generally integrate our products with their applications and either provide hosting services or resell them
with their products. Our other indirect channel partners resell our software products to end-user customers. Our total revenues are derived from license fees for software products and fees for services relating to such products, including software
maintenance and support, professional services and training.

Despite the recent global recession, we have achieved
profitability and positive cash flows in the recent quarters. We achieved these results not only through our solid execution, leading technology and strong customer relationships, but also because of our commitment to operating efficiencies which
have resulted in significant reductions to our operating expenses, as we aligned our business to weather a turbulent and unpredictable macro-economic environment.

Nevertheless, our business model and longer-term financial results are not immune to a sustained economic downturn. The financial turmoil
and economic uncertainty over the last two years has caused some of our customers to postpone investments and purchase decisions, decrease their spending or delay payments to us. During fiscal year 2009 we saw increasing pressures on our
customers Information Technology budgets, and therefore our customers sought more flexibility in the timing of purchases. Facing uncertainty and cost pressures in their own businesses, some of our customers are waiting to purchase our products
and are increasingly seeking purchasing terms and conditions that are less favorable to us. This trend partially contributed to lower license revenues for fiscal year 2008 and fiscal year 2009. We have also seen a similar impact on our consulting
business in the recent years. If the financial turmoil and economic uncertainty continue and cause further customer bankruptcies or consolidation among our customers, our year-over-year revenue and operating income results could be adversely
affected.

We continue to monitor market conditions and may make adjustments to our business in order to reduce the adverse
impact that the prolonged economic downturn could have on our business. We expect to continue to explore both organic and inorganic growth opportunities. In particular, we may acquire companies or technology that can contribute to the strategic,
operational and financial performance of our business. We believe that the combination of our solid financials, leading technology and strong customer relationships will help us successfully execute our strategies.

On February 1, 2010, we acquired Xenos Group Inc. (Xenos) a publicly traded company headquartered in Ontario, Canada,
and a market-leading provider of high-performance software solutions. The companys solutions, based on the scalable Xenos Enterprise Server and its components, process, extract, transform, repurpose and personalize high volumes of data
and documents for storage, real-time access, ePresentment, printing and delivery in numerous formats across multiple channels. Actuate intends to enhance its current product offering by adding Xenoss products and technology to its existing
product line.

For the remainder of fiscal year 2010, we expect three additional trends to continue that
would have a significant impact on the results of our operations. We currently believe that corporate IT budgets will grow only modestly if at all in the fiscal year 2010 particularly among financial services companies in the United States. Second,
corporations are reluctant to buy software from new vendors and we continue to witness corporations consolidating their Business Intelligence, Rich Internet Application (the market category that includes Rich Information Applications) and
Performance Management software purchases with fewer suppliers. Finally, we expect to experience vigorous competition in the Rich Internet Applications market. Several of our competitors have released products that are marketed to be directly
competitive with our Rich Information Applications offerings. The existence of these competitive products may require additional sales and marketing efforts to differentiate our products, which could result in extended sales cycles. We believe that
competition in the Rich Internet Applications market will be vigorous in the near future.

For fiscal year 2010, we will
continue to pursue the strategic initiatives to improve revenue growth that we began introducing in fiscal year 2004 as well as an initiative related to Performance Management, which we introduced in fiscal year 2007. These initiatives are as
follows:



| |  |  | Selling to IT ManagementWe are re-focusing our sales efforts on selling our products to IT managers who we believe generally recognize the
technical advantages of our products. We hope this initiative will result in increased license revenue in the short term.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Solution Selling to Line-of-Business ManagementWe are creating Performance Management applications and software solutions to market to
line-of-business managers. These offerings are in the areas of performance management and customer self service reporting. We hope these initiatives will result in increased license revenue over the medium-to-long term.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Investing in BIRTWe are continuing to make a significant investment in creating a new open source business intelligence and reporting tool, known
as BIRT. We hope that BIRT will eventually become widely adopted by Java developers and will create demand for our other commercially available products. The BIRT project is a long-term initiative.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Selling to Global 9000 Corporations in the Financial Services SectorWe are continuing to focus on selling our products to Global 9000 financial
services companies in an effort to increase our substantive market share in this sector. We anticipate a negative impact of the ongoing credit crunch on the Financial Services sector in 2010. However, we believe that once the short term issues in
Financial Services are resolved, the industry will once again lead in the adoption of Rich Information Applications both inside and outside the firewall.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Delivering a Highly Differentiated Performance Management OfferingWe have combined Actuate BIRT Performance Scorecard applications and
Actuates Rich Information Application-ready platform to provide capabilities for distributing accountability throughout the enterprise.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition to the above, in fiscal year 2010 we will initiate strategies involving the recent acquisition of Xenos. As part of
Actuates product portfolio, the Xenos product family will continue to be fully supported and drive value for customers as it does in many applications today. The planned integration will enable new and existing customers to leverage both Xenos
and Actuate technologies to efficiently address new challenges and deliver higher value.

We plan to leverage Actuates
BIRT technology and Rich Information Application platform to provide rich, interactive delivery and analysis of information sourced from documents and print streams accessed by Xenos products. The combined technologies will enable agile response to
business demands without reworking existing infrastructure. The integration of Xenos product capabilities into Actuates enterpriseclass, highly scalable BIRT iServer product line will provide a new deployment option. This integration
will enhance the existing Xenos Enterprise Server product that provides a unified, easy to manage platform for applications looking to integrate existing documents and print streams with the next generation information delivery and Business
Intelligence capabilities provided by Actuates flagship BIRT iServer and BIRT technology.

We have a limited ability to
forecast future revenues and expenses, thus the prediction of future operating results is difficult. In addition, historical growth rates in our revenues and earnings should not be considered indicative of future revenue or earnings growth rates or
operating results. There can be no assurance that any of our business strategies will be successful or that we will be able to achieve and maintain profitability on a quarterly or annual basis. It is possible that in some future quarter our
operating results will be below the expectations of public market analysts and investors, and in such event the price of our common stock could decline.

Our total revenues for the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 were relatively flat at $29.1 million compared
to $29.3 million reported in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. Included in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 results were revenues attributed to Xenos, which we acquired on February 1, 2010.

The fluctuations in revenues during the first quarter of fiscal 2010 were mainly due to the following factors:



| |  |  | Increase in total revenues due to the acquisition of Xenos, which we acquired on February 1, 2010.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | A decrease in professional services revenues. The decrease in professional services revenues was mainly due to a weak macro-economic environment which
is causing some customers to either delay their projects or cancel their engagements. We believe some customers are opting to use in-house resources to complete previously outsourced projects. Another factor contributing to the decrease in the
professional services revenues is the increase in the adoption of BIRT-based projects by our customers which do not require professional service to the same extent as the Companys traditional designer products.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | A continued decrease in license revenue growth since fiscal 2008 has resulted in a negative compounding effect on our maintenance renewal stream.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | A decrease in license revenues was due largely to macro economic conditions which are causing customers to delay purchases and or work on ways to grow
optimal efficiencies out of exiting infrastructure server environments.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The decrease in our operating
margins was due mainly to a $2.5 million increase in legal expenses relating primarily to various contract compliance matters.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and in response to a challenging business environment, we implemented a restructuring plan which
resulted in the elimination of 17 positions held by Actuate employees worldwide, the closure of one of our sales facilities in Europe and the write-off of associated fixed assets. We estimate that these cost cutting measures will result in
approximately $3.1 million in annualized savings in fiscal 2010 and beyond.

Finally during the first quarter of fiscal 2010,
we recorded a $1.5 million tax benefit that was derived from the reversal of previously accrued valuation allowances associated with our Canadian operations. As a result of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, our revenues were
positively impacted by approximately $350,000 while our operating expenses were negatively impacted by approximately $240,000 for the first quarter of fiscal year 2010.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements,
which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

For further information about our significant accounting policies, see the discussion under Item 7 to the annual consolidated
financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2009, as filed with the SEC on Form 10-K on March 10, 2010.

Revenues

Our revenues are derived from license fees and services, which include software maintenance and support, professional consulting and
training. Our total revenues decreased slightly from $29.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 to $29.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010. Included in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 results were revenues
attributed to Xenos which we acquired on February 1, 2010. The acquisition of Xenos resulted in an overall increase to our license revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 as compared to the same period last year. This increase in license
revenues was partially offset by lower professional service revenues as we continue to experience year over year declines in revenues due to the adoption of BIRT which requires less professional services. We are also seeing more customers delaying
or cancelling professional services engagement and using in-house resources to reduce their internal operating costs. For the first quarter of 2010, we also experienced a decrease in maintenance and support revenues, primarily due to a continued
decrease in license revenues since fiscal 2008 that has resulted in a negative compounding effect on our maintenance renewal stream.

Sales outside of North America were $6.7 million or 23% of total revenues for the first quarter of fiscal year 2010, compared to $6.6
million, or 23% of total revenues for the first quarter of fiscal year 2009.

License fees. The increase in license revenues for the first quarter of fiscal year 2010
over the same period in the prior year was due primarily to revenues from our acquisition of Xenos. These increases in license revenues were partially offset by lower license bookings due to weak macro economic conditions that continue to adversely
impact the financial services industry, a key component of Actuates customer portfolio. North America experienced a 4% or approximately $306,000 increase in license revenues, while our European and Asian regions experienced a robust 29% or
approximately $533,000 increase in license revenues during the first quarter of fiscal 2010. Approximately $83,000 of the increase in International license revenues was attributed to foreign currency exchange gains. During the first quarter of
fiscal year 2010, we completed two license transactions greater than $1.0 million and closed transactions greater than $100,000 with 52 customers. During the same period last year we completed two license transactions greater than $1.0 million and
closed transactions greater than $100,000 with 62 customers.

Services. Services revenue is comprised of maintenance and support, professional services,
and training. The 5% decrease in services revenues was driven primarily by a decrease in our professional services and consulting revenues. Our professional services revenues continue to decline mostly due to a weak macro economic environment which
is causing some customers to either delay their projects or cancel their engagements. We believe some customers are opting to use in-house resources to complete previously outsourced projects. Another factor contributing to the decrease in the
professional services revenues is the increase in the adoption of BIRT-based projects by our customers which do not require professional service to the same extent as the Companys traditional designer products. We are also seeing decreases in
our maintenance and support revenues as continued reductions in our license revenues from the onset of the global recession in early 2008 has resulted in a negative compounding effect on our maintenance revenues.

Services margins remained unchanged for the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 when compared to the first quarter of fiscal year 2009 at
77%.

Cost of license fees consists primarily of product packaging, documentation, production costs and
the amortization of purchased technology. The increase in cost of license fees in absolute dollars for the first quarter of fiscal year 2010, compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, was due primarily to amortization of Xenos
purchased intangibles which we started amortizing in February of 2010. We expect our cost of license fees, as a percentage of revenues from license fees, to remain between 5% and 6% of revenues from license fees for the remainder of fiscal year
2010.

Cost of services consists primarily of personnel and related costs, share-based compensation,
facilities costs incurred in providing software maintenance and support, training and consulting services, as well as third-party costs incurred in providing training and consulting services. The decrease in cost of services for the first quarter of
fiscal year 2010, compared to the prior year, was primarily due to the decrease in consulting revenues as demand for Actuates professional services engagements continues to decrease in fiscal year 2010. In response to this decrease in services
engagement opportunities, we reduced our cost structure during the second half of fiscal year 2008 and continued these reductions throughout fiscal years 2009 and 2010. Consequently, we reduced our professional consulting headcount by approximately
27% or 16 employees from 60 at the end the first quarter 2009 to 44 employees at end of the first quarter of 2010. As a result of these reductions, employee compensation and travel costs decreased by approximately $340,000 during the first quarter
of fiscal year 2010. Third party consulting and related professional fees also decreased by approximately $175,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 compared to the same period last year. This was a direct result of an intentional reduction in the
use of external contractors to staff engagements. Finally, during the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 internal costs allocated to the services group decreased by approximately $130,000, primarily due to a decrease in consulting revenues and
reduced headcount in the services group. These decreases were offset by increased operating expenses as a result of our acquisition of Xenos in February of 2010. We currently expect our cost of services expenses as a percentage of total services
revenues to be in the range of 23% to 25% of total services revenues for the remainder of fiscal year 2010.

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries, commissions, share-based compensation
and bonuses earned by sales and marketing personnel, promotional expenses, travel, entertainment and facility costs. The decrease in sales and marketing expenses compared to the corresponding period in the prior year was primarily due to reductions
in employee related expenses. Salaries, sales commissions, and stock-based compensation and employee travel combined to account for approximately $1.0 million of the decrease in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 expenses. These reductions were
mostly due to the decrease in license bookings, which translated into lower sales commissions. As a result of lowered sales, we reduced our sales and marketing headcount by 12%, or 19 employees, from 157 at the end of the first quarter of 2009 to
138 at the end of the first quarter 2010, a portion of which was included in our announced restructuring plan in the first quarter of fiscal 2010. Our lower headcount and revenues also resulted in reductions in recruiting and third party commission
fees of approximately $250,000. We also experienced a decrease to employee training and conference expenses related to our annual Corporate Kickoff event. This event was originally scheduled for January 2009 but instead was rescheduled for July
2009. As a result we accrued hotel cancellation fees during the first quarter of 2009 of approximately $230,000. Marketing program expenses decreased by approximately $340,000 in the current quarter primarily related to the elimination of global
programs. These decreases were offset by increased operating expenses as a result of our acquisition of Xenos in February of 2010.

We currently expect our sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of total revenues to be in the range of 33% to 35% of total revenues
for the remainder of fiscal year 2010.

Research and development costs consist primarily of personnel and related costs associated with
the development of new products, share-based compensation costs, enhancement of existing products, quality assurance and testing. The increase in research and development expenses in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 was primarily due to the
acquisition of Xenos in February of 2010. We believe that continued investments in technology and product development are essential for us to remain competitive in the markets we serve, and expect our research and development expenses as a
percentage of total revenues to be in the range of 18% to 20% of total revenues for the remainder of fiscal year 2010.

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel costs, share-based compensation
costs and related costs for finance, human resources, information systems and general management, as well as legal, bad debt and accounting expenses. The increase in general and administrative expenses in both absolute dollars and as a percentage of
total revenues for the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 was primarily due to increased legal fees of approximately $2.4 million due mostly to contract compliance matters pursued during the quarter. We also incurred approximately $260,000 of legal
fees associated with the acquisition of Xenos. These increases were partially offset by a reduction of approximately $200,000 in employee compensation, benefits and recruiting fees due primarily to lower bonus accruals that are tied to
Companys operating results, lower audit and tax advisory fees of approximately $315,000 due to the timing of the field work performed by our independent auditors and approximately $240,000 in lower bad debt expense due to an improved accounts
receivable aging balance.

We expect our general and administrative expenses to increase in absolute dollars and as a
percentage of total revenues for the remainder of fiscal year 2010 due to legal expenses associated with various contract compliance matters. We expect our general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues to be in the range of
20% to 24% for the remainder of fiscal year 2010.

Amortization of other purchased intangibles

Amortization expense increased during the first quarter of fiscal 2010 as compared to first quarter of fiscal 2009 due to amortization
expense associated with intangibles assets purchased through the acquisition of Xenos. These purchased intangibles are being amortized over their estimated useful lives of seven years. In addition, as a result of our acquisition of performancesoft
in the first quarter of fiscal 2006, we acquired purchased intangibles which are amortized over their estimated useful lives of five years.

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2010, we implemented restructuring actions that resulted
in aggregate charges of $387,000 and elimination of 17 positions worldwide, across all levels primarily within the sales and marketing organization. Also included in the aggregate charges for the first quarter of 2010 was a $49,000 idle facilities
charge related to the closure of one of our sales facilities in Europe.

Historically restructuring charges have included
costs associated with reductions in workforce, exits of idle facilities and disposals of fixed assets. These restructuring charges were based on actual and estimated costs incurred including estimates of sublease income on portions of our idle
facilities that we periodically update based on market conditions and in accordance with our restructuring plans. These estimates were impacted by the rules governing the termination of employees, especially those in foreign countries.

Interest
income during the first quarter of fiscal 2010 decreased substantially due to an overall decrease in interest rates and substantially lower cash balances. The rate of return on our investment portfolio dropped from 2.8% at end of the first quarter
of 2009 to approximately 1.4% at the end of the first quarter of 2010. Although cash and investments balance was higher at the end of the first quarter of 2010, it was lower on average during the span of the quarter. This is because we used
approximately $27.3 million, net of the acquired cash balance, to pay for the acquisition of Xenos and spent another $5.0 million on share buybacks during the quarter. During the first quarter of 2010, we also experienced foreign exchange losses due
primarily to the devaluation of the British Pound, the Euro and the U.S. Dollar currency balances held by our Swiss subsidiary against the Swiss Franc. The revaluation of these currency amounts held in Switzerland to Swiss Francs is a required
procedure in consolidating and reporting the financial results of our European operations. We also recorded interest expense totaling approximately $345,000 during the first quarter of 2010. This increase in interest expense was due to $10.0 million
in additional borrowings under our existing credit facility with Wells Fargo Foothill (WFF). The additional borrowing was used to fund the acquisition of Xenos which was completed on February 1, 2010.

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, we recorded an income tax benefit of approximately
$1.5 million, as compared to an income tax provision of approximately $584,000 for the same period of fiscal year 2009. The decrease in the income tax provision for the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 as compared to the first quarter of
fiscal year 2009 is mainly due to a tax benefit of $1.6 million recognized during the quarter for the release of a valuation allowance on Canadian deferred assets and a small domestic loss for the quarter.

During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company decreased its reserve for uncertain tax positions by approximately
$104,000. The decrease is primarily related to a waiver of penalties received as the result of a Canadian voluntary tax disclosure agreement. The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component
of income tax expense. The Company does not believe it is reasonably possible that its reserve for uncertain tax positions would materially change in the next 12 months.

Our primary
source of cash is receipts from revenue. The primary uses of cash are payroll (salaries, sales commission bonuses, and benefits), general operating expenses (marketing, travel, office rent) and debt service payments. Another source of cash is
proceeds from the exercise of employee options and another use of cash is our stock repurchase program, which is discussed below.

Cash flows from operating activities: Our largest source of operating cash flows is cash collections from our
customers following the purchase and renewal of their software license updates and product support agreements. Payments from customers for software license updates and product support agreements are generally received near the beginning of the
contracts terms, which are generally one year in length. We also generate significant cash from new software license sales and, to a lesser extent, consulting. Our primary uses of cash from operating activities are for personnel related
expenditures as well as payments related to taxes and leased facilities. Net cash provided by operating activities increased in the first three months of fiscal 2010 compared to the same period last year primarily due to improved collections. Days
sales outstanding (DSO) which is calculated based on revenue for the most recent quarter and accounts receivable as of the balance sheet date decreased by 14 days from 75 days at March 31, 2009 to 61 days at March 31, 2010.

Cash flows from investing activities: The changes in cash flows from investing activities primarily relate
to acquisitions and the timing of purchases, maturities and sales of our investments in marketable securities. We also use cash to invest in capital and other assets to support our growth. Cash used in investing activities was $35.1 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to approximately $273,000 provided by for the same period in fiscal 2009. The primary driver for the decrease in cash during the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 was the acquisition of Xenos which
resulted in a cash payment of approximately $27.3 million. This cash payment is net of approximately $6.9 million of acquired cash from Xenos. We funded the acquisition by using a combination of approximately $24.3 million of Companys cash and
investment reserves and borrowed $10.0 million under our existing credit facility with Wells Fargo Foothill (WFF). The remaining increase in cash used primarily relates to the timing of purchases and maturities of marketable securities.

Cash flows from financing activities: Cash provided by financing activities was $7.9 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2010 compared to $923,000 provided by financing activities during the same period in fiscal year 2009. This increase in cash provided was primarily the result of the additional borrowings under the Companys existing
credit facility with Wells Fargo Foothill (WFF) and increase in proceeds derived from the exercise of employee stock options. These increases were offset by $5.0 million in share buybacks during the quarter.

##### Table of Contents

Despite a challenging economic environment, we remain focused on increasing our cashflows
from operations and improving our operating margins and profitability. The current economic uncertainties have reduced our visibility in forecasting our future license revenues, from which we largely depend on achieving these goals. As visibility
associated with these future license revenues remain limited, we may, from time to time, rely on cost cutting and swift resizing measures to achieve our objective of growth in operating cashflows, operating margins and profitability.

Our capital expenditures for the past two years have primarily consisted of leasehold improvements related to our headquarter facility in
San Mateo, California and software costs associated with our internal customer portal project. We currently do not foresee material cash outlays associated with capital projects during the remainder of fiscal year 2010 and expect to see lowered cash
payments associated with these activities.

In early November of 2008, we entered into a revolving Credit Agreement with Wells
Fargo Foothill and secured a revolving line of credit in the principal amount of up to $50.0 million. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2008, we used $30.0 million of our cash along with $30.0 million of funds available through this credit
facility to complete a $60.0 million common stock buy back. During the first quarter of 2010, we borrowed an additional $10.0 million of funds available through this credit facility to complete the acquisition of Xenos which was completed on
February 1, 2010. As of March 31, 2010, the Company owed $40.0 million on the credit facility. There are no minimum pay-down requirements under the terms of this credit facility so long as the Company remains in compliance with the terms
of the Credit Agreement. Total costs associated with the facility, including legal and closing fees, amounted to approximately $1.1 million. Of these total costs, approximately $1.0 million was paid as of March 31, 2010. The remaining balance
is comprised of a commitment fee totaling $125,000 that is due and payable on the third anniversary in November of fiscal year 2011. These costs are being capitalized and amortized over four years in the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheet at
March 31, 2010 as current assets if amortized within one year or non-current assets if amortized beyond one year.

As of March 31, 2010, the remaining balance available under the revolving credit facility was approximately
$10.0 million. Interest is based on a floating rate plus an applicable margin based on the outstanding balance of the amount drawn under the Credit Agreement. The floating rate is determined at the Companys election and may either be
(i) London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or (ii) the greater of the Federal Funds Rate
plusan applicable margin and the Prime Rate. If the
Companys usage of the credit line exceeds 80% of its trailing four quarters of recurring maintenance revenue, or if the sum of available funds under the Credit Agreement plus available cash is less than $10.0 million the Company is required to
meet certain minimum income targets and be subject to a limit on annual capital expenditures. As of March 31, 2010, the Company was able to meet the 80% test as well as the $10.0 million minimum cash threshold and was therefore not subject to
the income or the capital expenditures covenants. The Company is required to make interest payments and pay an unused commitment fee on a monthly basis. The Company incurred approximately $345,000 of interest expense primarily associated with the
credit facility in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 compared with $286,000 of interest expense incurred during the first quarter of fiscal year 2009. The increase in the interest expense in fiscal 2010 was due to $10.0 million in additional

The Credit Agreement contains financial covenants, which, among other things, require the
Company to maintain specified financial ratios and impose certain limitations with respect to lines of business, mergers, investments and acquisitions, additional indebtedness, distributions, guarantees, liens and encumbrances. The Company was in
compliance with these financial and non-financial covenants at March 31, 2010. The Companys indebtedness under the Credit Agreement is secured by a lien on (i) substantially all of its assets and the assets of Actuate
International Corporation and (ii) by a pledge of all of its stock and a portion of the stock of each of its subsidiaries.

The Company believes that cash flows from operations will be sufficient to meet its current debt service requirements for interest and
any required prepayments under the Credit Agreement. However, if such cash flow is not sufficient, the Company may be required to issue additional debt or equity securities, refinance its obligations, or take other actions in order to make such
scheduled payments. The Company cannot be sure that it would be able to effect any such transactions on favorable terms, if at all and failure to do so may cause an event of default under the Credit Agreement, which will have a material adverse
effect on the Companys business, operating results and financial conditions.

At March 31, 2010, the Company has
classified the ARS and the related Put Option as current investments on its Consolidated Balance Sheet. This classification was based on the intent and ability of the Company to sell the ARS back to UBS as soon as the Put Option allows, which is
currently expected to be June 30, 2010.

We hold our cash, cash equivalents and investments primarily in the United
States, Canada, Switzerland, and Singapore. As of March 31, 2010, we held an aggregate of approximately $39.5 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments in the United States and an aggregate of $28.7 million in
foreign accounts. Funds in foreign accounts are primarily generated from revenue outside North America and are used to fund oversea operations.

We expect cash provided by operating activities to fluctuate in future periods as a result of a number of factors, including timing of
our billings and collections, our operating results, the timing and amount of tax and other liability payments and cash used in any future acquisitions.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

Our license agreements include indemnification for infringement of third party intellectual property rights and certain warranties.
Historically, the Company has not experienced significant claims under these contractual rights. Therefore, no amounts have been accrued relating to those indemnities and warranties.

On September 1, 2007, the Company entered into a five year sublease agreement with a third party for approximately 83,000 square
feet of office space in the Bridgepointe Campus in San Mateo, California. This lease is operating in nature, commenced on August 1, 2007 and ends on July 31, 2012. In addition, the lease provided for approximately nine months of free rent
(rent holiday) and approximately $600,000 in landlord incentives applied by Actuate towards construction of improvements. As a result, the Company straight-lined its rent expense and recorded a deferred rent liability on its consolidated balance
sheet. At March 31, 2010, the deferred rent liability balance totaled approximately $856,000 and this balance declines through 2012 when contractual cash payments exceed the straight-line lease expense. Of this total deferred rent liability
balance, approximately $332,000 was classified under the current accrued liabilities section of our consolidated balance sheet with the remaining portion of approximately $524,000 classified under other long term liabilities section of our
consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2010. The incentives were applied to leasehold improvements completed during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007. Actuate also leases an additional 50,400 square feet in one facility in South San
Francisco, California. The lease on this additional facility will expire in April 2011 and this facility is being entirely subleased. Actuate also leases office facilities in various locations in the United States and abroad. All facilities are
leased under operating leases.

In prior periods, Actuate pledged $426,000 of restricted cash as collateral for standby
letters of credit that guarantee its contractual obligations relating to its corporate headquarter facilities located at the Bridgepointe Campus in San Mateo, California. This restricted cash remains classified as Other Assets in the accompanying
Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2010.

|ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

Market Risk. Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial
market prices and rates. Our market risk exposure is primarily a result of credit risk, fluctuations in interest rates and foreign exchange rates.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk. During the first three months of fiscal years 2010 and 2009 we derived 23% of our total revenues
from sales outside of North America. We face exposure to market risk on these receivables with respect to fluctuations in the relative value of currencies. Our international revenues and expenses are denominated in foreign currencies, principally
the Euro and the British Pound Sterling. The functional currency of each of our foreign subsidiaries is the local currency. We are also exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations as the financial results of foreign subsidiaries are translated
into U.S. dollars in consolidation. As exchange rates vary, transaction gains and losses may vary from expectations and adversely impact overall expected profitability. Our realized loss due to foreign exchange rate fluctuations was approximately
$657,000 during the first three months of fiscal 2010 compared to gains of approximately $200,000 for the first three months of fiscal 2009. During the first quarter of fiscal 2010, exchange rate fluctuations on foreign revenue transactions
positively impacted our total revenue growth by approximately $350,000 when compared to the same period in the prior year while expenses were negatively impacted by approximately $240,000.

Interest Rate Risk. The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing
yields without significantly increasing risk. To achieve this objective, we invest in highly liquid and high quality debt securities. Due to the nature of our investments, we believe that there is limited risk exposure.

We also have a $40.0 million loan with Wells Fargo Foothill which we used to partially fund our tender offer in the fourth quarter of
2008 and acquisition of Xenos in the first quarter of 2010. We performed a sensitivity analysis on the outstanding portion of this loan as of March 31, 2010. The analysis is based on an estimate of the hypothetical changes in annual
interest expense that would result from an immediate increase/decrease in interest rates.

The analysis is shown as of
March 31, 2010:



|                                                 |  |       |  |       |  |       |  |       |  |      
|------------------------------------------------ |  | ----- |  | ----- |  | ----- |  | ----- |  | -----
|Annual change in interest expense (in
thousands)
|-1.5%                                            |  | -1.0% |  | -0.5% |  | +0.5% |  | +1.0% |  | +1.5%
|(600)                                            |  | (400) |  | (200) |  | 200   |  | 400   |  | 600  

Credit
Risk.Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, investments in marketable securities, and trade accounts receivable. We have policies that limit
investments in investment grade securities and the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer.

We sell primarily to
customers in the financial services industry, predominantly in the United States and Europe. Accordingly, unfavorable economic conditions adversely impacting the financial services industry has had a material adverse effect on the Companys
business, financial condition and results of operations. For example, the financial services industry has experienced and may continue to experience cyclical fluctuations in profitability, which may affect timing of, or actual purchases of, the our
products which would have a material adverse effect on the our business, financial condition and results of operations. No single customer has accounted for more than 10% of total sales in any period presented.

We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and maintain an allowance for potential credit losses. We do not require
collateral or other security to support customer receivables. Our credit risk is also mitigated because our customer base is diversified by geography and no single customer has accounted for more than 10% of our consolidated revenue on an annual
basis. We generally do not use foreign exchange contracts to hedge the risk in receivables denominated in foreign currencies. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Our investments portfolio includes auction rate securities (ARS). The ARS market was highly liquid prior to fiscal year 2008.
During fiscal year 2008, however, a substantial number of auctions failed, meaning that there was not enough demand to sell the entire issue of the securities that holders desired to sell at auction. Additional information regarding our
ARS investment portfolio is detailed in Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the period ended March 31, 2010.

We do not believe that future market equity or interest rate risks related to our marketable investments or debt obligations will have a
material impact on our results of operations. The Company is not currently invested in any derivative securities.

|ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
|------- | -----------------------

As of the end of the period covered by this report (the Evaluation Date), the Company carried out an evaluation under the
supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in
Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)). There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures. Accordingly,
even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving their control. Subject to these limitations, and based on the evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports Actuate files and submits under the Exchange Act are
recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required.

Changes in Internal Controls

There were no changes in Actuates internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2010 that
have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Actuates internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. Other Information



|Item 1. | Legal Proceedings
|------- | -----------------

The
Company is engaged in certain legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, including international employment litigation arising out of restructuring activities. Although there can be no assurance as to the outcome of such litigation,
the Company believes that it has adequate legal defenses and that the ultimate outcome of any of these actions will not have a material effect on the Companys financial position or results of operations.

##### Table of Contents

|Item 1A. | Risk Factors
|-------- | ------------

Investors should carefully consider the following risk factors and warnings before making an investment decision. The risks described
below are not the only ones facing Actuate. Additional risks that we do not yet know of or that we currently think are immaterial may also impair our business operations. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, operating results
or financial condition could be materially harmed. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline and you may lose all or part of your investment. Investors should also refer to the other information set forth in this Report on
Form 10-K, including the financial statements and the notes thereto.

THE COMPANYS OPERATING RESULTS MAY BE
VOLATILE AND DIFFICULT TO PREDICT. IF IT FAILS TO MEET ITS ESTIMATES OF FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS OR IT FAILS TO MEET THE EXPECTATIONS OF PUBLIC MARKET ANALYSTS AND INVESTORS, THE MARKET PRICE OF ITS STOCK MAY DECREASE SIGNIFICANTLY.

The susceptibility of the Companys operating results to significant fluctuations makes any prediction, including
the Companys estimates of future operating results, difficult. In addition, the Company believes that period-to-period comparisons of its operating results are not necessarily meaningful and investors should not rely on them as indications of
the Companys future performance. The Companys operating results have in the past varied, and may in the future vary significantly due to factors such as the following:



| |  |  | Demand for its products;
| | - |  | ------------------------



| |  |  | The size and timing of significant orders for its products;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | A slowdown or a decrease in spending on information technology by its current and/or prospective customers;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Competition from products that are directly competitive with its products;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Lost revenue from introduction or market acceptance of open source products that are directly competitive with its products;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The management, performance and expansion of its international operations;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Customers desire to consolidate their purchases of Rich Information Applications, Performance Management and Business Intelligence software to
one or a very small number of vendors from which a customer has already purchased software;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | General domestic and international economic and political conditions, including war, terrorism, and the threat of war or terrorism;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Sales cycles and sales performance of its indirect channel partners;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Changes in the way it and its competitors price their respective products and services, including maintenance and transfer fees;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Continued successful relationships and the establishment of new relationships with OEMs;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Changes in its level of operating expenses and its ability to control costs;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The cost, outcome or publicity surrounding any pending or threatened lawsuits;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Ability to make new products and product enhancements commercially available in a timely manner;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Ability to effectively launch new or enhanced products, including the timely education of the Companys sales, marketing and consulting personnel
with respect to such new or enhanced products;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Customers delaying purchasing decisions in anticipation of new products or product enhancements;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | Budgeting cycles of its customers;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------



| |  |  | Failure to successfully manage its acquisitions;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Defects in its products and other product quality problems;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Failure to successfully meet hiring needs including for qualified professional services employees and unexpected personnel changes;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Changes in the market segments and types of customers at which it focuses its sales and marketing efforts;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Changes in perpetual licensing models to term- or subscription-based models with respect to which license revenue is not fully recognizable at the time
of initial sale;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Changes in service models with respect to which consulting services are performed on a fixed-fee, rather than variable fee, basis; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Potential impairments of Auction Rate Securities (ARS), goodwill, intangibles and other investments.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Because the Companys software products are typically shipped shortly after orders are received, total revenues in any quarter are
substantially dependent on orders booked and shipped throughout that quarter. Furthermore, several factors may require the Company, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, to defer recognition of license fee
revenue for a significant period of time after entering into a license agreement, including:



| |  |  | Whether the license agreement includes both software products that are then currently available and software products or other enhancements that are
still under development;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Whether the license agreement relates entirely or partly to software products that are currently not available;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Whether the license agreement requires the performance of services that may preclude revenue recognition until successful completion of such services;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Whether the license agreement includes acceptance criteria that may preclude revenue recognition prior to customer acceptance;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Whether the license agreement includes undelivered elements (including limited terms or durations) that may preclude revenue recognition prior to
customer acceptance; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Whether the license agreement includes extended payment terms that may delay revenue recognition until the payment becomes due.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, the Company may in the future experience fluctuations in its gross and operating margins due
to changes in the mix of its domestic and international revenues, changes in the mix of its direct sales and indirect sales and changes in the mix of license revenues and service revenues, as well as changes in the mix among the indirect channels
through which its products are offered.

A significant portion of the Companys total revenues in any given quarter is
derived from existing customers. The Companys ability to achieve future revenue growth, if any, will be substantially dependent upon its ability to increase revenues from license fees and services from existing customers, to expand its
customer base and to increase the average size of its orders. To the extent that such increases do not occur in a timely manner, the Companys business, operating results and financial condition would be harmed.

The Companys expense levels and any plans for expansion are based in significant part on its expectations of future revenues and
are relatively fixed in the short-term. If revenues fall below expectations and the Company is unable to respond quickly by reducing its spending, the Companys business, operating results, and financial condition could be harmed.

##### Table of Contents

The Company often implements changes to its license pricing structure for all of its
products including increased prices and modified licensing parameters. If these changes are not accepted by the Companys current customers or future customers, its business, operating results, and financial condition could be harmed.

Based upon all of the factors described above, the Company has a limited ability to forecast the amount and mix of future
revenues and expenses and it is likely that at some time, the Companys operating results will fall below its estimates or the expectations of public market analysts and investors. In the event that operating results are below its estimates or
other expectations, the price of the Companys common stock is likely to decline.

OUR DEBT COVENANTS RESTRICT OUR
FINANCIAL AND OPERATIONAL FLEXIBILITY.

As discussed above, the Credit Agreement contains a number of financial
covenants, which, among other things, require us to maintain specified financial ratios and impose certain limitations on us with respect to lines of business, mergers, investments and acquisitions, additional indebtedness, distributions,
guarantees, liens and encumbrances. Our ability to meet the financial ratios can be affected by operating performance or other events beyond our control, and we cannot assure you that we will meet those ratios and failure to do so may cause an event
of default under the Credit Agreement. Our indebtedness under the Credit Agreement is secured by a lien on substantially all of our assets and of our subsidiaries, by a pledge of our operating and license subsidiaries stock and by a guarantee
of our subsidiaries. If the amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement were accelerated due to an event of default, the lenders could proceed against such available collateral by forcing the sales of these assets.

THE COMPANY HAS MADE, AND MAY IN THE FUTURE MAKE, ACQUISITIONS, WHICH INVOLVE NUMEROUS RISKS.

The Companys business is highly competitive, and as such, its growth is dependent upon market growth and its ability to enhance its
existing products, introduce new products on a timely basis and expand its distribution channels and professional services organization. One of the ways the Company has addressed and will continue to address these issues is through acquisitions of
other companies. On February 1, 2010, the Company completed a tender offer for Xenos Group Inc. (Xenos).

Generally, acquisitions (including that of Xenos) involve numerous risks, including the following:



| |  |  | The benefits of the acquisition not materializing as planned or not materializing within the time periods or to the extent anticipated;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The Companys ability to manage acquired entities people and processes that are headquartered in separate geographical locations from the
Companys headquarters;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The possibility that the Company will pay more than the value it derives from the acquisition;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Difficulties in integration of the operations, technologies, and products of the acquired companies;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The assumption of certain known and unknown liabilities of the acquired companies;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Difficulties in retaining key relationships with customers, partners and suppliers of the acquired companyspecifically in the case of Xenos the
loss of recurring revenue from multiple subsidiaries of one large multi-national organization or the ability to sell and support certain third party software.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The risk of diverting managements attention from normal daily operations of the business;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The Companys ability to issue new releases of the acquired companys products on existing or other platforms;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Negative impact to the Companys financial condition and results of operations and the potential write down of impaired goodwill and intangible
assets resulting from combining the acquired companys financial condition and results of operations with its financial statements;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Risks of entering markets in which the Company has no or limited direct prior experience; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The potential loss of key employees of the acquired company.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------

Mergers and acquisitions of high-technology companies are inherently risky, and the Company cannot be certain that any acquisition will
be successful and will not materially harm the Companys business, operating results or financial condition.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY CLAIMS AGAINST THE COMPANY CAN BE COSTLY AND COULD RESULT IN THE
LOSS OF SIGNIFICANT RIGHTS.

Third parties may claim that the Companys current or future products infringe their
intellectual property rights. The Company has been subject to infringement claims in the past and it expects that companies in the Business Intelligence, Rich Internet Applications or Performance Management software market will increasingly be
subject to infringement claims as the number of products and/or competitors in its industry segment grows and the functionality of products in different industry segments overlaps. Any such claims, with or without merit, could be time-consuming to
defend, result in significant litigation and other expenses, divert managements attention and resources, cause product shipment delays or require the Company to enter into royalty or licensing agreements. Such royalty or licensing agreements,
if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. A successful claim of product infringement against the Company and its failure or inability to license the infringed or similar technology could materially harm the
Companys business, operating results and financial condition.

THE COMPANY MAY NOT BE ABLE TO PROTECT ITS SOURCE
CODE FROM COPYING.

Source code, the detailed program commands for our operating systems and other software programs,
is critical to our business. Although we take significant measures to protect the secrecy of large portions of our source code, unauthorized disclosure or reverse engineering of a significant portion of our source code could make it easier for third
parties to compete with our products by copying functionality, which could adversely affect our revenue and operating margins.

IF THE COMPANY FAILS TO GROW REVENUE FROM INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS AND EXPAND ITS INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS ITS BUSINESS WOULD BE
SERIOUSLY HARMED.

The Companys total revenues derived from sales outside North America were 23%, 23%
and 34% for the first quarter of fiscal years 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Its ability to achieve revenue growth in the future will depend in large part on its success in increasing revenues from international sales. The Company intends to
continue to invest significant resources to expand its sales and support operations outside North America and to potentially enter additional international markets. In order to expand international sales, the Company must establish additional
foreign operations, expand its international channel management and support organizations, hire additional personnel, recruit additional international resellers and increase the productivity of existing international resellers. The Company intends
to continue to shift its focus from direct sales to indirect sales in certain of its international markets in 2010. If it is not successful in expanding international operations in a timely and cost-effective manner, the Companys business,
operating results and financial condition could be materially harmed.

IF THE COMPANY DOES NOT SUCCESSFULLY EXPAND ITS
DISTRIBUTION CHANNELS AND DEVELOP AND MAINTAIN RELATIONSHIPS WITH OEMs, ITS BUSINESS WOULD BE SERIOUSLY HARMED.

To
date, the Company has sold its products principally through its direct sales force, as well as through indirect sales channels, such as its OEMs, resellers and systems integrators. The Companys revenues from license fees resulting from sales
through indirect channel partners were approximately 31%, 33%, and 35% of total revenues from license fees for the first quarter of fiscal years 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The Companys ability to achieve significant revenue growth in
the future will depend in large part on the success of its sales force in further establishing and maintaining relationships with indirect channel partners. In particular, a significant element of the Companys strategy is to embed its
technology in products offered by OEMs for resale or as a hosted application to such OEMs customers and end-users. Xenos business in the United Kingdom relies on the sale and support of third party software as a component of its
business. The Company also intends to establish and expand its relationships with resellers and systems integrators so that such resellers and systems integrators will increasingly recommend its products to their clients. The Companys future
success will depend on the ability of its indirect channel partners to sell and support its products. If the sales and implementation cycles of its indirect channel partners are lengthy or variable or its OEMs experience difficulties embedding its
technology into their products or it fails to train the sales and customer support personnel of such indirect channel partners in a timely or effective fashion, the Companys business, operating results and financial condition would be
materially harmed.

Although the Company is currently investing, and plans to continue to invest, significant
resources to expand and develop relationships with OEMs and resellers, it has at times experienced and continues to experience difficulty in establishing and maintaining these relationships. If the Company is unable to successfully expand this
distribution channel and secure license agreements with additional OEMs and resellers on commercially reasonable terms, including significant up-front payments of minimum license fees, and extend existing license agreements with existing OEMs on
commercially reasonable terms, the Companys operating results would be adversely affected. Any inability by the Company to maintain existing or establish new relationships with indirect channel partners, including systems integrators and
resellers, or, if such efforts are successful, a failure of the Companys revenues to increase correspondingly with expenses incurred in pursuing such relationships, would materially harm the Companys business, operating results and
financial condition.

THE COMPANY MAY NOT BE ABLE TO COMPETE SUCCESSFULLY AGAINST ITS CURRENT AND FUTURE COMPETITORS.

The Companys market is intensely competitive and characterized by rapidly changing technology, evolving
standards and product releases by the Companys competitors that are marketed to compete directly with the Companys products. The Companys competition comes in five principal forms:



| |  |  | Competition from current or future Business Intelligence software vendors such as Information Builders and MicroStrategy, each of which offers
reporting products;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Competition from other large software vendors such as IBM, Microsoft, Oracle and SAP, to the extent they sell as separate products or include Rich
Internet Applications and Performance Management functionality with their applications or databases;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Competition from other software vendors and software development tool vendors including providers of open-source software products that may develop
scalable Business Intelligence, Performance Management and Rich Information Applications products;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Competition from the IT departments of current or potential customers that may develop scalable Business Intelligence, Performance Management and Rich
Information Applications products internally, which may be cheaper and more customized than the Companys products; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Competition from BIRT. The Company expects that BIRT, which is free, may in the short term cannibalize some smaller sales of its Business Intelligence
and Rich Information Applications products.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Most of the Companys current and potential competitors
have significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources than it does. These competitors may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements or devote greater resources to
the development, promotion and sales of their products than the Company. Also, most current and potential competitors have greater name recognition and the ability to leverage a significant installed customer base. These companies have released and
can continue to release competing Business Intelligence, Performance Management and Rich Information Applications software products or significantly increase the functionality of their existing software products, either of which could result in a
loss of market share for the Company. The Company expects additional competition as other established and emerging companies enter the Business Intelligence, Performance Management and Rich Internet Applications software market and new products and
technologies are introduced. Increased competition could result in price reductions, fewer customer orders, reduced gross margins, longer sales cycles and loss of market share, any of which would harm the Companys business, operating results
and financial condition.

Current and potential competitors may make strategic acquisitions or establish cooperative
relationships among themselves or with third parties, thereby increasing their ability to address the needs of the Companys customers. Also, the Companys current or future channel partners may have established in the past, or may in the
future, establish cooperative relationships with the Companys current or potential competitors, thereby limiting the Companys ability to sell its products through particular distribution channels. It is possible that new competitors or
alliances among current and new competitors may emerge and rapidly gain significant market share. Such competition could reduce the Companys revenues from license fees and services from new or existing customers on terms favorable to us. If
the Company is unable to compete successfully against current and future competitors, the Companys business, operating results and financial condition would be materially harmed.

IF THE MARKET FOR BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE, RICH INTERNET APPLICATIONS AND PERFORMANCE
MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE DOES NOT GROW AS THE COMPANY EXPECTS, ITS BUSINESS WOULD BE SERIOUSLY HARMED.

The Company cannot
be certain that the market for Business Intelligence and Rich Information Applications and Performance Management software products will continue to grow or that, even if the market does grow, businesses will purchase the Companys products. If
the market for Business Intelligence and Rich Internet Applications and Performance Management software products declines, fails to grow or grows more slowly than the Company expects, its business, operating results and financial condition would be
harmed. To date, all of the Companys revenues have been derived from licenses for its Business Intelligence and Rich Information Applications and software and Performance Management related products and services, and it expects this to
continue for the foreseeable future. The Company has spent, and intends to continue to spend, considerable resources educating potential customers and indirect channel partners about Business Intelligence and Rich Information Applications and
Performance Management software and its products. However, if such expenditures do not enable its products to achieve any significant degree of market acceptance, the Companys business, operating results and financial condition would be
materially harmed.

BECAUSE THE SALES CYCLES OF THE COMPANYS PRODUCTS ARE LENGTHY AND VARIABLE, ITS QUARTERLY
RESULTS MAY FLUCTUATE.

The purchase of the Companys products by its end-user customers for deployment within the
customers organization typically involves a significant commitment of capital and other resources, and is therefore subject to delays that are beyond the Companys control. These delays can arise from a customers internal procedures
to approve large capital expenditures, budgetary constraints, the testing and acceptance of new technologies that affect key operations and general economic and political events. The sales cycle for initial orders and larger follow-on orders for the
Companys products can be lengthy and variable. Additionally, sales cycles for sales of the Companys products to OEMs tend to be longer, ranging from 6 to 24 months or more, and may involve convincing the OEMs entire organization
that the Companys products are the appropriate software for their applications. This time period does not include the sales and implementation cycles of such OEMs own products, which can be longer than the Companys sales and
implementation cycles. Certain of the Companys customers have in the past, or may in the future, experience difficulty completing the initial implementation of the Companys products. Any difficulties or delays in the initial
implementation by the Companys end-user customers or indirect channel partners could cause such customers or partners to reject the Companys software or lead to the delay or non-receipt of future orders for the large-scale deployment of
its products, in which case the Companys business, operating results and financial condition would be materially harmed.

ADVANCES IN HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGY MAY CAUSE OUR SOFTWARE REVENUE TO DECLINE.

In the past, the Company has licensed software for a certain number of processors or CPUs to many of its
customers. Advances in hardware technology, including, but not limited to, greater CPU clock speeds, multiple-core processors and virtualization, have afforded software performance gains to some customers, causing them to defer additional software
purchases from the Company. The occurrence of any of these events, and other future advances, could seriously harm the Companys business, operating results and financial condition. Use of the Companys software on more advanced hardware
than the hardware on which the software was originally installed, without payment of a transfer fee, is prohibited by the terms of applicable license agreements or Company policies. The Company intends to require compliance with such terms. As a
result of its enforcement efforts, customers may defer or cease purchasing additional software or maintenance and support. The occurrence of any of these events could materially harm the Companys business, operating results and financial
condition.

THE RENEWAL OF MAINTENANCE REVENUE ON OUR OLDER SOFTWARE SALES MAY DECLINE

The Company has historically experienced a high maintenance retention rate across its various product lines. As certain of the
Companys products age, these retention rates may not be sustained unless the Company is successful in providing its customers with more advanced functionality and the levels of support that they require.

IF THE COMPANY IS UNABLE TO FAVORABLY ASSESS THE EFFECTIVENESS OF ITS INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING IN FUTURE PERIODS
OR IF THE COMPANYS INDEPENDENT AUDITORS ARE UNABLE TO PROVIDE AN UNQUALIFIED ATTESTATION REPORT ON SUCH ASSESSMENT, THE COMPANYS STOCK PRICE COULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED.

Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended (Section 404), the Companys management is
required to report on, and its independent auditors are required to attest to, the effectiveness of the Companys internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis. The Companys assessment, testing and evaluation of the
design and operating effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting are ongoing. The Company cannot predict the outcome of its testing in future periods. If in future periods the Company concludes that its internal control over
financial reporting is not effective, it may be required to change its internal control over financial reporting to remediate deficiencies, and investors may lose confidence in the reliability of its financial statements, causing the Companys
stock price to decline significantly.

SECTION 404 AND REGULATORY CHANGES HAVE CAUSED THE COMPANY TO INCUR INCREASED
COSTS AND OPERATING EXPENSES, INCLUDING ADDITIONAL COST AND EXPENSES ASSOCIATED WITH HIRING QUALIFIED PERSONNEL TO COMPLY WITH SUCH REGULATORY REQUIREMENT.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and regulatory changes by the SEC and Nasdaq have caused the Company to incur significant increased costs.
In particular, the rules governing the standards that must be met for management to assess its internal controls over financial reporting under Section 404 are complex, and require significant documentation, testing and possible remediation.
This ongoing process of reviewing, documenting and testing the Companys internal controls over financial reporting has resulted in, and will likely continue to result in ongoing cost to the Company. Furthermore, achieving and maintaining
compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley and other new rules and regulations has and will continue to require the Company to hire additional personnel and to use additional outside legal, accounting and advisory services.

In addition, any acquisitions made by the Company will also put a significant strain on its management, information systems and
resources. Any expansion of the Companys international operations will lead to increased financial and administrative demands associated with managing its international operations and managing an increasing number of relationships with foreign
partners and customers and expanded treasury functions to manage foreign currency risks, all of which will require the Company to incur additional cost to implement necessary changes to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting.

IF THE COMPANY DOES NOT RESPOND TO RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGES, ITS PRODUCTS COULD
BECOME OBSOLETE.

The market for the Companys products is characterized by rapid technological changes, frequent
new product introductions and enhancements, changing customer demands, and evolving industry standards. Any of these factors can render existing products obsolete and unmarketable. The Company believes that its future success will depend in large
part on its ability to support current and future releases of popular operating systems and computer programming languages, databases and software applications, to timely develop new products that achieve market acceptance and to meet an expanding
range of customer requirements. If the announcement or introduction of new products by the Company or its competitors or any change in industry standards causes customers to defer or cancel purchases of existing products, the Companys
business, operating results and financial condition would be harmed.

As a result of the complexities inherent in Business
Intelligence, Rich Information Applications and Performance Management software, major new products and product enhancements can require long development and testing periods. In addition, customers may delay their purchasing decisions in
anticipation of the general availability of new or enhanced versions of the Companys products. As a result, significant delays in the general availability of such new releases or significant problems in the installation or implementation of
such new releases could harm the Companys business, operating results and financial condition. If the Company fails to successfully develop, on a timely and cost effective basis, product enhancements or new products that respond to
technological change, evolving industry standards or customer requirements or such new products and product enhancements fail to achieve market acceptance, the Companys business, operating results and financial condition would be harmed.

IF THE COMPANY DOES NOT RELEASE NEW PRODUCTS AND ENHANCEMENTS TO EXISTING PRODUCTS IN A TIMELY MANNER OR IF SUCH NEW
PRODUCTS AND ENHANCEMENTS, INCLUDING THE COMPANYS OPEN SOURCE PROJECT, FAIL TO ACHIEVE MARKET ACCEPTANCE, THE COMPANYS BUSINESS COULD BE SERIOUSLY HARMED.

The Company believes that its future success will depend in large part on the success of new products and enhancements to its products
that it makes generally available. Prior to the release of any new products or enhancements, the products must undergo a long development and testing period. To date, the development and testing of new products and enhancements have taken longer
than expected. In the event the development and testing of new products and enhancements continue to take longer than expected, the release of new products and enhancements will be delayed. If the Company fails to release new products and
enhancements in a timely manner, its business, operating results and financial condition would be harmed. In addition, if such new products and enhancements do not achieve market acceptance, the Companys business, operating results and
financial condition would be harmed.

The Company has developed a BIRT open source product through its involvement in the
Eclipse Foundation. The Company hopes that BIRT and a commercialized version of BIRT will be widely adopted by Java developers and will result in such developers recommending to their employees and customers that they license the Companys
commercially available products. If BIRT does not achieve market acceptance and result in promoting sales of commercially available products, the Companys business, operating results and financial condition may be harmed.

THE SUCCESS OF THE COMPANYS OPEN-SOURCE BIRT INITIATIVE IS DEPENDENT ON BUILDING A DEVELOPER COMMUNITY AROUND BIRT.

The success of the Companys BIRT initiative is dependent on the open source contributions of third-party programmers and
corporations, and if they cease to make these contributions to the Eclipse open source project, the BIRT project, or the general open source movement, the Companys BIRT product strategy could be adversely affected. If key members, or a
significant percentage, of this group of developers or corporations decides to cease development of Eclipse, BIRT or other open source applications, the Company would have to either rely on another party (or parties) to develop these technologies,
develop them itself or adapt its open source product strategy accordingly. This could increase the Companys development expenses, delay its product releases and upgrades or adversely impact customer acceptance of open source offerings.

THE COMPANYS INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO SIGNIFICANT RISKS.

A substantial portion of the Companys revenues is derived from international sales. International operations and sales
are subject to a number of risks, any of which could harm the Companys business, operating results and financial conditions. These risks include the following:



| |  |  | Economic and political instability, including war and terrorism or the threat of war and terrorism;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Difficulty of managing an organization spread across many countries;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Multiple and conflicting tax laws and regulations;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Costs of localizing products for foreign countries;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Difficulty in hiring employees and difficulties and high costs associated with terminating employees and restructuring operations in foreign countries;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Trade laws and business practices favoring local competition;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Dependence on local vendors;
| | - |  | ----------------------------



| |  |  | Increasing dependence on resellers in certain geographies;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Compliance with multiple, conflicting and changing government laws and regulations;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Weaker intellectual property protection in foreign countries and potential loss of proprietary information due to piracy or misappropriation;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Longer sales cycles;
| | - |  | --------------------



| |  |  | Import and export restrictions and tariffs;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The significant presence of some of our competitors in certain international markets;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Greater difficulty or delay in accounts receivable collection; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------

The Company believes that, over time, an increasing portion of its revenues and costs will be denominated in foreign currencies. To the
extent such denomination in foreign currencies does occur, gains and losses on the conversion to U.S. dollars of accounts receivable, accounts payable and other monetary assets and liabilities arising from international operations may contribute to
fluctuations in the Companys results of operations. Although the Company may in the future decide to undertake foreign exchange hedging transactions to cover a portion of its foreign currency transaction exposure, it currently does not attempt
to cover any foreign currency exposure. If it is not effective in any future foreign exchange hedging transactions in which it engages, the Companys business, operating results and financial condition could be materially harmed.

THE COMPANYS EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CERTAIN KEY PERSONNEL ARE CRITICAL TO ITS BUSINESS AND IT MAY NOT BE ABLE TO RECRUIT AND
RETAIN THE PERSONNEL IT NEEDS.

The Companys future success depends upon the continued service of its executive
officers and other key engineering, sales, marketing and customer support personnel. None of its officers or key employees is bound by an employment agreement for any specific term. If the Company loses the service of one or more of its key
employees, or if one or more of its executive officers or key employees decide to join a competitor or otherwise compete directly or indirectly with it, it could have a significant adverse effect on the Companys business.

##### Table of Contents

In addition, because experienced personnel in the Companys industry are in high demand
and competition for their talents is intense, the Company has relied on its ability to grant stock options as one mechanism for recruiting and retaining this highly skilled talent. Accounting standards require the expensing of stock options, which
impairs the Companys ability to provide these incentives without incurring significant compensation costs. There can be no assurance that the Company will continue to successfully attract and retain key personnel in the future.

CHANGES IN OR INTERPRETATIONS OF, ACCOUNTING STANDARDS COULD RESULT IN UNFAVORABLE ACCOUNTING CHARGES.

The Company prepares its Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America. These principles are subject to interpretation by the SEC and various bodies formed to interpret and create appropriate accounting standards. The Companys accounting policies that recently been or may be affected by changes
in the accounting rules are as follows:



| |  |  | Software revenue recognition;
| | - |  | -----------------------------



| |  |  | Accounting for income taxes;
| | - |  | ----------------------------



| |  |  | Accounting for business combinations and related goodwill;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Accounting for stock issued to employees; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Assessing fair value of financial and non-financial assets.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------

A change in accounting standards applicable to us can have a significant effect on the Companys reported results and may even
retroactively affect previously reported transactions.

THE COMPANY MAY BE UNABLE TO SUSTAIN OR INCREASE ITS
PROFITABILITY.

While the Company was profitable in its last five fiscal years, it incurred net losses during fiscal
year 2003 and 2002. Its ability to sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis will be affected by changes in its business. It expects its operating expenses to increase as its business grows, and it anticipates that it will
make investments in its business. Therefore, the Companys results of operations will be harmed if its revenues do not increase at a rate equal to or greater than increases in its expenses or are insufficient for it to sustain profitability.

IF THE COMPANY OVERESTIMATES REVENUES, IT MAY BE UNABLE TO REDUCE ITS EXPENSES TO AVOID OR MINIMIZE A NEGATIVE IMPACT
ON ITS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The Companys revenues are difficult to forecast and are likely to fluctuate
significantly from period to period. The Company bases its operating expense budgets on expected revenue trends. The Companys estimates of sales trends may not correlate with actual revenues in a particular quarter or over a longer period of
time. Variations in the rate and timing of conversion of the Companys sales prospects into actual licensing revenues could cause it to plan or budget inaccurately and those variations could adversely affect the Companys financial
results. In particular, delays, reductions in amount or cancellation of customers purchases would adversely affect the overall level and timing of the Companys revenues and its business, results of operations and financial condition
could be harmed. In addition, many of its expenses, such as office and equipment leases and certain personnel costs, are relatively fixed. It may be unable to adjust spending quickly enough to offset any unexpected revenue shortfall. Accordingly,
any shortfall in revenue may cause a material variation in operating results in any period.

IF THE COMPANYS PRODUCTS CONTAIN MATERIAL DEFECTS, ITS REVENUES MAY DECLINE.

Software products as complex as those offered by the Company often contain errors or defects, particularly when first
introduced, when new versions or enhancements are released and when configured to individual customer computing systems. The Company currently has known errors and defects in its products. Despite testing conducted by the Company, if additional
defects and errors are found in current versions, new versions or enhancements of its products after commencement of commercial shipment, or if such errors or defects cannot be cured or repaired timely, it could result in the loss of revenues or a
delay in market acceptance or an increase in the rate of return of the Companys products. The occurrence of any of these events could materially harm the Companys business, operating results and financial condition.

THE COMPANY MAY BE SUBJECT TO PRODUCT LIABILITY CLAIMS.

Although license agreements with its customers typically contain provisions designed to limit the Companys exposure to potential
product liability claims, it is possible that such limitation of liability provisions may not be effective as a result of existing or future laws or unfavorable judicial decisions. The sale and support of the Companys products may entail the
risk of such claims, which are likely to be substantial in light of the use of its products in business-critical applications. A product liability claim brought against the Company could materially harm its business, operating results and financial
condition.

THE PROTECTION OF OUR PROPRIETARY RIGHTS MAY BE INADEQUATE.

The Company has a small number of issued and pending U.S. patents expiring at varying times ranging from 2015 to 2020. The Company relies
primarily on a combination of copyright and trademark laws, trade secrets, confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions to protect its proprietary technology. For example, the Company licenses its software pursuant to click-wrap or signed
license agreements that impose certain restrictions on licensees ability to utilize the software. In addition, the Company seeks to avoid disclosure of its intellectual property, including by requiring those persons with access to its
proprietary information to execute confidentiality agreements with the Company and by restricting access to its source code. The Company takes precautions to protect our software, certain documentation, and other written materials under trade secret
and copyright laws, which afford only limited protection.

Despite the Companys efforts to protect its proprietary
rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of its 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 it is unable to
determine the extent to which piracy of its software products exists, software piracy can be expected to be a persistent problem. In addition, the laws of many countries do not protect the Companys proprietary rights to as great an extent as
do the laws of the United States. If the Companys means of protecting its proprietary rights is not adequate or its competitors independently develop similar technology, the Companys business could be materially harmed.

THE COMPANYS COMMON STOCK PRICE MAY BE VOLATILE, WHICH COULD RESULT IN SUBSTANTIAL LOSSES FOR STOCKHOLDERS.

The market price of shares of the Companys common stock has been and is likely to continue to be highly volatile
and may be significantly affected by factors such as the following:



| |  |  | Actual or anticipated fluctuations in its operating results;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Changes in the economic and political conditions in the United States and abroad;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Terrorist attacks, war or the threat of terrorist attacks and war;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The announcement of mergers or acquisitions by the Company or its competitors;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | Adoption of new accounting standards affecting the software industry; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Changes in financial estimates by securities analysts.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------

In addition, following periods of volatility in the market price of a particular companys securities, securities class action
litigation has often been brought against such companies. If the Company is involved in such litigation, it could result in substantial costs and a diversion of managements attention and resources and could materially harm the Companys
business, operating results and financial condition.

CHANGES IN CORPORATE INCOME TAX LAWS, INCOME TAX RATES OR NEGATIVE
INCOME TAX RULINGS COULD ADVERSELY IMPACT THE COMPANYS FINANCIAL RESULTS.

The Company is taxable principally in
the United States and certain jurisdictions in Europe and Asia/Pacific. All of these jurisdictions have in the past and may in the future make changes to their corporate income tax laws and/or corporate income tax rates, which could increase or
decrease the Companys future income tax provision. While the Company believes that all material income tax liabilities are reflected properly in its Consolidated Balance Sheet, it has no assurance that it will prevail in all cases in the event
the taxing authorities disagree with its interpretations of the tax law. Future levels of research and development spending will impact the Companys entitlement to related tax credits, which generally lower its effective income tax rate.
Future effective income tax rates could be adversely affected if tax laws are enacted that are targeted to eliminate the benefits of the Companys tax structure and if its earnings are lower than anticipated in jurisdictions where the Company
has statutory tax rates lower than tax rates in the United States or other higher tax jurisdictions.

CERTAIN OF THE
COMPANYS CHARTER PROVISIONS AND DELAWARE LAW MAY PREVENT OR DETER A CHANGE IN CONTROL OF ACTUATE.

The
Companys Certificate of Incorporation, as amended and restated (the Certificate of Incorporation), and Bylaws, as amended and restated (Bylaws), contain certain provisions that may have the effect of discouraging,
delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company or unsolicited acquisition proposals that a stockholder might consider favorable, including provisions authorizing the issuance of blank check preferred stock, eliminating the
ability of stockholder to act by written consent and requiring stockholders to provide advance notice for proposals and nomination of directors at the Annual Meeting of Stockholder. In addition, certain provisions of Delaware law and the
Companys stock option plans may also have the effect of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control or unsolicited acquisition proposals. The Company has also entered into change of control agreements with its executive officers,
which agreements require payment to an executive upon termination of employment within 12 months after acquisition. The anti-takeover effect of these provisions may also have an adverse effect on the public trading price of the Companys common
stock.

DEPENDENCE ON THE FINANCIAL SERVICES INDUSTRY COULD SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT THE
COMPANYS REVENUES.

A significant portion of the Companys revenues are derived from customers in the
financial services industry and the Company expects it will continue to derive a significant portion of its revenues from these customers for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, unfavorable economic conditions adversely impacting the financial
services industry has had a material adverse effect on the Companys business, financial condition and results of operations. For example, the financial services industry has experienced and may continue to experience cyclical fluctuations in
profitability, which may affect timing of, or actual purchases of, the Companys products which would have a material adverse effect on the Companys business, financial condition and results of operations.

IF THE RECENT CREDIT MARKET CONDITIONS CONTINUE OR DETORIATE FURTHER, IT COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE IMPACT ON OUR INVESTMENT
PORTFOLIO.

Recent U.S. sub-prime mortgage defaults have had a significant impact across various sectors of the
financial markets, causing global credit and liquidity issues. The short-term funding markets experienced credit issues throughout fiscal year 2008. This led to liquidity disruption in asset-backed commercial paper and failed auctions in the auction
rate market. If the global credit market continues to deteriorate, our investment portfolio may be impacted and we could determine that some of our investments are other than temporarily impaired. This could have a material adverse impact on our
results of operations and financial condition.

Our investment portfolio includes Auction Rate Securities (ARS).
They are usually found in the form of municipal bonds, a pool of student loans or collateralized debt obligations whose interest rates are subject to reset through an auction process. The ARS held by us are primarily backed by highly rated municipal
issuers.

As of March 31, 2010, the Company had approximately $16.5 million in ARS at par value. Since February 2008,
substantially all auctions for ARS have failed as a result of the negative overall capital market conditions, meaning that there is not enough demand to sell the securities at auction. While the Company continues to earn interest on its
ARS investments at the maximum contractual rate, these investments are not currently trading and therefore do not currently have a readily determinable market value.

In November 2008, the Company elected to participate in a rights offering by UBS, the Companys investment broker, which provides
Actuate with rights (the Put Option) to sell UBS $16.5 million of its ARS portfolio at par value, at any time during a two-year sale period beginning June 30, 2010. By electing to participate in the rights offering, the Company
granted UBS the right, exercisable at any time prior to June 30, 2010 or during the two-year sale period, to purchase or cause the sale of our ARS (the Call Right). UBS has stated that it will only exercise the Call Right for the
purpose of restructurings, dispositions or other solutions that will provide their clients with par value for their ARS. UBS has agreed to pay their clients the par value of their ARS within one day of settlement of any Call Right transaction.
Notwithstanding the Call Right, the Company is permitted to sell ARS to parties other than UBS, in which case the Put Option attached to the ARS that are sold would be extinguished. At March 31, 2010 the Company has valued the Put Option at the
present value of the difference between the fair market value and the par value of the ARS.

At March 31, 2010, the
Company has classified the ARS and the related Put Option as current investments on its Consolidated Balance Sheet. This classification was based on the intent and ability of the Company to sell the ARS back to UBS as soon as the Put Option allows,
which is currently expected to be June 30, 2010. In prior quarters, the ARS were classified as long-term investments because of the Companys inability to determine when its investments in the ARS would settle, and the fact that the
exercisability date of the Put Option exceeded 365 days.

The Company has no reason to believe that any of the underlying issuers of its ARS are
presently at risk of default. Through March 31, 2010, the Company has continued to receive interest payments on the ARS in accordance with their terms. Currently, interest is being earned at the maximum contractual rate, which may not exceed
the one year trailing average rate on the three month Treasury Bill plus 120 basis points. The Company believes that it will ultimately be able to liquidate its ARS related investments without significant loss primarily due to the collateral
securing the ARS and the legal settlement it has entered into with UBS. However, it could take until final maturity of the ARS (up to 38 years) to realize the investments par value.

If we need to access the funds associated with ARS but are unable to do so, our operations and financial position could be materially
harmed.

WE HAVE SUBSTANTIAL INDEBTEDNESS AND DEBT SERVICE REQUIREMENTS.

On November 2, 2008, Actuate entered into a four year revolving line of credit agreement with Wells Fargo Foothill, LLC
(WFF) as the arranger, administrative agent and lender (the Credit Agreement). The Credit Agreement was effective as of November 3, 2008. The Company used $30.0 million of the proceeds from the Credit Agreement in the
tender offer it completed in December 2008 and for working capital, issuance of commercial and standby letters of credit, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes. On February 1, 2010 we borrowed an additional $10.0 million
under the Credit Agreement to fund the acquisition of Xenos. The acquisition was valued at approximately $34.3 million and was funded using a combination of cash reserves and borrowings available under the Credit Agreement. At March 31,
2010, our outstanding debt under the Credit Agreement was $40 million.

The Credit Agreement allows for cash borrowings
and letters of credit under a secured revolving credit facility of up to a maximum of $50.0 million, but in any event not to exceed 80% of the Companys Trailing Recurring Revenue (as defined in the Credit Agreement). Interest will accrue
based on a floating rate based on, at the Companys election, (i) LIBOR or (ii) the greater of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus an applicable margin or (b) Wells Fargos prime rate, in each case, plus an applicable
margin based on the outstanding balance of the amount drawn down under the Credit Agreement. If the Companys borrowings and letter of credit usage plus any bank product reserves established by Wells Fargo exceeds 80% of its Trailing Recurring
Revenue (as defined in the Credit Agreement), or if the sum of available funds under the Credit Agreement plus Qualified Cash (as defined in the Credit Agreement) is less than $10.0 million, the Company will be required to meet certain EBITDA
targets and be subject to a limit on annual capital expenditures, subject to a cure mechanism described in the Credit Agreement. The Company is required to make interest payments and pay an unused commitment fee on a monthly basis. The Credit
Agreement includes limitations on the Companys ability to incur debt, grant liens, make acquisitions, make certain restricted payments such as dividend payments, and dispose of assets. The events of default under the Credit Agreement include
payment defaults, cross defaults with certain other indebtedness, breaches of covenants and bankruptcy events. In the case of a continuing event of default, the lenders under the Credit Agreement may, among other remedies, eliminate their
commitments to make credit available, declare due all unpaid principal amounts outstanding, and require cash collateral for any letter of credit obligations and foreclose on all collateral.

Because of our indebtedness, a significant portion of our cash flow from operations is and will be required for debt service. Our levels
of debt could have negative consequences for us. You should note that:



| |  |  | a substantial portion of our cash flow is, and will be, dedicated to debt service and is not, and will not be, available for other purposes;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and general corporate or other purposes may be
impaired in the future;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | certain of our borrowings are, and will be, at variable rates of interest, which may expose us to the risk of increases in interest rates; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our level of indebtedness could make us more vulnerable to economic downturns, limit our ability to withstand competitive pressures and reduce our
flexibility in responding to changing business and economic conditions.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We believe that cash flows from operations will be sufficient to meet our current debt
service requirements for interest and any required prepayments under the Credit Agreement. However, if such cash flow is not sufficient, we may be required to issue additional debt or equity securities, refinance our obligations, or take other
actions in order to make such scheduled payments. We cannot be sure that we would be able to effect any such transactions on favorable terms, if at all. Failure to do so may cause an event of default under the Credit Agreement, which will have a
material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial conditions.
