CALDERA INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES        NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS        (Unaudited)

(1) ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

On August 26, 2002, Caldera International, Inc. ("the Company") announced that it would change its name to The SCO Group, Inc. ("SCO"),
pending shareholder approval at a special shareholders' meeting to be held later in 2002. The name change is in response to the continuing brand recognition related to the SCO OpenServer and SCO
UnixWare product lines.

The
Company was originally incorporated as Caldera Systems, Inc. ("Caldera Systems"), a Utah corporation on August 21, 1998, and reincorporated as a Delaware corporation on
March 6, 2000. In March 2000, Caldera Systems completed an initial public offering of its common stock.

Caldera
Systems developed and marketed software and provided related services that enabled the development, deployment and management of Linux-based specialized servers and internet
devices that extended the eBusiness infrastructure. Caldera Systems sold and distributed its software and related products indirectly through distributors and solutions providers, which included
value-added resellers ("VARs"), original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs"), and systems integrators, as well as directly to end-user customers. These sales occurred throughout the United
States and in certain international locations.

On
May 7, 2001, the Company was formed as a holding company, to acquire substantially all of the assets, liabilities and operations of the server and professional services groups
of Tarantella, Inc. ("Tarantella"), formerly The Santa Cruz Operation, Inc., pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the "Agreement"), dated as of August 1, 2000 as
amended. Under the Agreement, the Company acquired the tangible and intangible assets used in the server and professional services groups, including all of the capital stock of certain Tarantella
subsidiaries. In connection with this acquisition, the Company also acquired Caldera Systems. Each share of existing Caldera Systems common stock, as well as options to purchase shares of Caldera
Systems common stock, were converted into an equal number of shares of common stock of the Company and options to purchase shares of common stock of the Company.

The
acquired operations provided server software for networked business computing and are a leading producer of UNIX server operating systems. In addition, these operations provided
professional services to implement and maintain UNIX system software products. The acquisition provided the Company with international offices and a distribution channel with thousands of resellers
worldwide.

The
Company's business has continued to focus on serving the small business market's need to have reliable, cost effective Linux and UNIX operating systems and products. The Company has
continued to provide SCO OpenServer and SCO UnixWare product offerings that have given customers stable, reliable and cost effective solutions for over two decades. Additionally, the Company renamed
its Linux product offering to SCO Linux, powered by United Linux, to draw on the strength of the SCO brand.

The
Company is continuing to sell Linux and UNIX products and services to customers through an indirect, leveraged worldwide channel of partners, which includes distributors and solution
providers. This worldwide distribution channel is supported by offices worldwide, locally providing customers and resellers with minor modifications to fit the particular country's unique needs.

We
are continuing to implement cost reduction measures in our efforts to achieve profitability. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002, we anticipate our operations will use
approximately $4.5 to

7

---

$5.5 million of cash. Additionally, we believe that we will have sufficient cash through at least January 31, 2003, and anticipate that we will exit our first quarter of fiscal 2003, which
ends January 31, 2003, operating at EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) break even. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in
achieving our revenue and operating expense projections. Accordingly, we may be required to obtain additional equity or debt funding to finance our operations. We have engaged an investment banking
firm to assist us in raising equity capital and anticipate receiving firm commitments from investors prior to October 31, 2002, our fiscal year end, and closing an equity transaction before the
end of calendar year 2002. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining additional equity capital in amounts or on terms acceptable to us. If sufficient funds are not
available on acceptable terms, our operations could be adversely impacted and our ability to continue in operation may be in question.

(2) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on a basis consistent with the Company's audited annual financial statements, and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting of
only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial information set forth therein. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations, although the Company believes
that the following disclosures, when read in conjunction with the audited annual financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's most recent Form 10-K, are
adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

The
condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of
operations of the Company as of the balance sheet dates and for the periods presented. Operating results for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2002 are not necessarily indicative
of the results that may be expected for the Company's fiscal year ending October 31, 2002. In addition, historical operating results for the nine months ended July 31, 2002 are
not directly comparable to the corresponding prior year period due to the impact of the Tarantella acquisition that occurred on May 7, 2001.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The Company's critical accounting policies and estimates, as discussed in our most recent
Form 10-K, include, among others, revenue recognition, impairment of long-lived assets and allowances for doubtful accounts and product returns.

Revenue Recognition

The Company's revenue is primarily from two sources: (i) product license revenue, primarily from product sales to resellers and end users, including large
scale enterprises, and royalty revenue, primarily from initial license fees and ongoing royalties from product sales by source code OEMs (original equipment manufacturers); and
(ii) service and support revenue, primarily from providing software updates, support and education and consulting services to end users.

Prior
to the acquisition of the OpenServer and UnixWare product lines from Tarantella, substantially all of the Company's revenue was derived from sales of Linux products and related
services. Currently, over 95 percent of the Company's total revenue is derived from UNIX related products and services.

The
Company recognizes product revenue upon shipment if a signed contract exists, the fee is fixed and determinable, collection of resulting receivables is probable and product returns
are reasonably estimable, except for sales to distributors, which are recognized upon sale by the distributor to resellers or end users.

For
contracts involving multiple elements (i.e. delivered and undelivered products, maintenance and other services), the Company allocates revenue to each component of the contract based
on objective evidence of its fair value, which is specific to the Company. The fair value of each element is based on the price if sold separately. The Company recognizes revenue allocated to
undelivered products when the criteria for product revenue set forth above have been met.

The
Company recognizes revenue from maintenance fees for ongoing customer support and product updates ratably over the period of the maintenance contract. Payments for maintenance fees
are generally made in advance and are non-refundable. For revenue allocated to education and consulting services or derived from the separate sale of such services, the Company recognizes
revenue as the related services are performed.

The
Company recognizes product revenue from royalty payments upon receipt of royalty reports from OEMs related to their product sales.

The
Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition and does not require collateral. The Company maintains allowances for potential credit losses and
such losses have been within management's expectations.

Other Assets

During the nine months ended July 31, 2002, the Company determined that the current carrying value of its investment in Lineo, Inc., an
affiliated entity, would not be realized and a write-down was necessary. The Company recorded a write-down of approximately $1.2 million related to this investment. As
of July 31, 2002, all of the Company's investments had been written down to $0.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and intangible assets are the result of the acquisition of certain assets and operations from Tarantella and the acquisition of the WhatIfLinux
technology from Acrylis, Inc. Upon adoption of

9

---

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, the Company reassessed the useful lives of its intangible assets. As discussed in Note 3, all goodwill has been eliminated
as of July 31, 2002. The following table summarizes the remaining components of amortized intangible assets and their useful lives (in thousands):

|                             |                                |                         |         | As of July 31, 2002,

|                             |                                | Total intangible assets |         |

Pursuant
to SFAS No. 142, the Company must test its intangible assets for impairment at least annually. The Company performed an initial impairment test as of
November 1, 2001, the date SFAS No. 142 was adopted, and concluded that no impairment needed to be recognized. Previously, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company had
recorded a $73.7 million impairment loss.

The
following table sets forth reported net loss and net loss per share, as adjusted, to exclude amortization of goodwill which would not have been recorded under SFAS No. 142 (in
thousands):

Restructuring Plans

In connection with the Tarantella acquisition and subsequently, the Company's board of directors has adopted restructuring plans to reduce facilities and
personnel. These restructuring plans have resulted in the Company recording restructuring accruals for the costs associated with the reduction in

facilities and for severance costs of affected employees. The following table summarizes the activity related to the restructuring accruals during the nine months ended July 31, 2002

During
the three months ended January 31, 2002, in connection with management's plan to reduce operating expenses, the Company announced a restructuring plan, which resulted in a
charge of $4.5 million. The restructuring included the elimination of various positions within sales, marketing, product development and administration and the elimination of
non-essential office space and facilities that will be permanently idle. Of the $4.5 million in total restructuring charges, $0.8 million related to severance costs and
$3.7 million related to facilities. In connection with the restructuring, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $1.1 million related to the write-down of certain long-term assets
and leasehold improvements.

During
the three months ended July 31, 2002, the Company announced a corporate restructuring that included the termination of approximately 15 percent of the Company's
workforce and the closing of two facilities. Prior to July 31, 2002, the Company reduced its workforce by an additional 9 percent. In total, the Company identified 122 employees who were
terminated or who will continue employment on a transition basis through various dates through October 31, 2002. The costs associated with this restructuring plan have been recorded as a
restructuring charge in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and total approximately $2.8 million.

During
the three months ended July 31, 2002, the Company was successful in negotiating a decrease in the monthly rent for one of its facilities that had been vacated in
connection with a previous corporate restructuring. At the time of the restructuring, the estimated future operating lease costs had been accrued based on management's best estimate of the future
costs. As a result of the lease renegotiation, the Company recorded a reduction of approximately $1.6 million to the restructuring accrual in the condensed consolidated statements of
operations.

The
July 31, 2002 restructuring accrual balance of approximately $2.8 million consists of $1.4 million recorded in accrued liabilities in the accompanying condensed
consolidated balance sheet and $1.4 million recorded in other long-term liabilities based on when payments are expected.

Pro Forma Financial Information

The following table sets forth certain pro forma financial information for the nine months ended July 31, 2001 had the Tarantella acquisition and the
WhatIfLinux technology acquisition, which occurred in May 2001, been completed as of November 1, 2000 (in thousands, except per share data):

Nine Months Ended

$
69,996Net loss from operations

)Net loss


(55,458
)Basic and diluted net loss per common share

$
(3.73
)


Net Loss per Common Share

Basic net loss per common share ("Basic EPS") is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per
common share ("Diluted EPS") is computed by dividing net loss by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the dilutive potential common share equivalents then
outstanding. Potential common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options. There were 4.4 million and 1.9 million outstanding options to
purchase common shares during the three months ended July 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and 4.0 million and 1.6 million outstanding options to purchase common shares
during the nine months ended July 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, which were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per common share as their effect would have been
anti-dilutive, decreasing the net loss per common share.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation. The reclassifications had no effect on net
loss for the prior periods.

(3) SETTLEMENT RELATED TO TARANTELLA ACQUISITION

On March 28, 2002, the Company completed an agreement with Tarantella to settle certain matters related to the acquisition of Tarantella's server and
professional services divisions described in Note 1. In connection with the settlement, the parties agreed that Caldera would pay $5.0 million as total settlement of the
$8.0 million face value note payable which originated as part of the acquisition and Tarantella would pay the Company $0.5 million for operating costs incurred and paid by the Company
that related to Tarantella's operations. Prior to the settlement, the collectibility of these items from Tarantella was uncertain and therefore the amounts had been expensed as incurred by the
Company. The difference between the carrying value of the note payable of $7.8 million and the $5.0 million payment, along with the $0.5 million expense reimbursement, have been
recorded as an adjustment to the purchase price paid by the Company to Tarantella. As a result, goodwill was reduced from $2.2 million to $0 and intangible assets were reduced by
$1.1 million.

(4) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

Four class action lawsuits were filed against the Company, certain of its officers and directors, and the underwriters of the Company's initial public offering in
the Unites States District Court for the Southern District of New York by parties alleging violations of the securities laws. The complaints allege certain improprieties regarding the circumstances
surrounding the underwriters' conduct during the IPO and the failure to disclose such conduct in the registration statement. The complaints have recently been amended and consolidated into a single
complaint. Over 300 other issuers, and their underwriters and officers and directors, have been sued in similar cases pending in the same court.

The
Company is not aware of any improper conduct by the Company, its officers and directors, or its underwriters, and the Company denies any liability relating thereto. The Company has
notified its underwriters and insurance carriers of the existence of the claims and plans to vigorously defend the action.

Operating Lease Guarantee

In connection with the acquisition of the server and professional services groups from Tarantella, the Company acquired Tarantella's subsidiary in the UK. The UK
subsidiary continued as the lessee under certain operating leases for facilities retained and used by Tarantella. The Company and Tarantella have completed assignment agreements with the respective
lessors to assign the leases to Tarantella. However, the Company's UK subsidiary continues as a guarantor for these lease agreements and may be liable under these obligations in the event that
Tarantella defaults. Future minimum operating lease payments under these leases extend through 2020 and total $10.7 million. As of July 31, 2002, the Company does not believe that it
will be required to make any payments under this guarantee, and therefore no liability has been recorded.

(5) STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

Reverse Stock Split

On December 17, 2001, the Company's board of directors approved a one-for-four reverse stock split for holders of common stock. On
March 4, 2002, the stockholders approved this reverse stock split and the Company's authorized shares were reduced from 200 million to 50 million and the outstanding common shares
were reduced from 57.6 million shares to approximately 14.4 million shares. The reverse stock split has been retroactively reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto for all periods presented.

Stock-Based Compensation

During the quarter ended July 31, 2002, the Company granted 2.5 million stock options with an average exercise price of $0.84 per share. None of
these stock options were granted at prices that were below the quoted market price on the date of grant. During the quarter ended July 31, 2002, no options to
purchase shares of common stock were exercised. As of July 31, 2002, there were approximately 4.9 million stock options outstanding with a weighted average exercise price of $4.11 per
share.

Amortization
of deferred compensation was ($89,000) during the quarter ended July 31, 2002 and $0.4 million during the quarter ended July 31, 2001. During the
quarter ended July 31, 2002, the Company recorded an adjustment of approximately $0.6 million to reverse previously recorded non-cash compensation related to
non-vested options forfeited by certain employees whose employment was terminated during the quarter. During the quarter ended July 31, 2002, the Company also terminated change in
control agreements that were in place for several executives. In exchange for the cancellation of the change in control agreements, 85,000 shares of the Company's common stock were issued to these
executives. The fair value of the common stock of $93,000 was recorded as non-cash compensation during the quarter ended July 31, 2002.

Amortization
of deferred compensation was $0.4 million during the nine months ended July 31, 2002 and $1.0 million during the nine months ended
July 31, 2001. During the nine months ended July 31, 2002, the Company recorded $0.1 million of compensation expense related to modifications of certain options, which is
included in the $0.4 million.

For
fiscal 2002, certain members of Caldera's board of directors elected to receive shares of Caldera stock in lieu of cash compensation for their services. The value of the shares
received by these board members was determined using the closing price of Caldera' stock on the date the shares were issued. During the nine months ended July 31, 2002, Caldera recorded
$113,000 in non-cash compensation for these services.

Restricted Stock Awards

During the quarter ended July 31, 2002, the Company issued 450,000 shares of restricted stock to key executives. The restrictions related to the restricted
stock awards lapse over a period of 24 months. The fair value of the restricted stock awards granted of $495,000 was recorded as a component of deferred compensation and will be amortized to
expense as the restrictions lapse.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

On November 30, 2001, employees participating in the Company's employee stock purchase plan acquired 87,500 shares of Caldera common stock at a price of
$2.62 per share. On May 31, 2002, employees acquired 87,500 shares of Caldera common stock at a price of $0.66 per share.

Stock Buyback From Tarantella and MTI Technology Corporation

During the three months ended April 30, 2002, the Company bought back 500,000 shares of its outstanding common stock from Tarantella. The Company
paid $555,100 for these shares, or $1.11 per share, which represented a discount from the quoted market price.

During
the three months ended July 31, 2002, the Company purchased 4.3 million shares of its outstanding common stock from Tarantella and MTI Technology Corporation
("MTI"). The aggregate purchase price for these shares was approximately $4.0 million, or $0.94 per share. In connection with this repurchase of shares, the Company received and accepted a
resignation letter from one of the directors representing Tarantella on the Company's board of directors.

The
Company has elected to retire the acquired shares and has accordingly reflected the amounts paid as a reduction to equity.

(6) SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company's resources are allocated and reviewed to the operating income (loss) level for each of the Company's three geographic units. The geographic units
consist of the Americas, EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) and Asia. The Company made the decision to review and allocate resources by geography during a corporate restructuring announced during
the three months ended July 31, 2002. Revenue, cost of revenue and direct sales and marketing expenses are tracked specifically for each geography. Costs of corporate marketing, research
and development and general and administration are allocated to each geography based on that geography's percentage of total revenue.

It
is impractical to provide historical operating expense information for these three divisions for periods prior to fiscal 2002 as internal information was not tracked and recorded in
this format.

as a result of various factors, including those set forth below under "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in this quarterly filing.

Recent Developments

On August 26, 2002, Caldera International, Inc. ("the Company") announced that it would change its name to The SCO Group Inc., ("SCO"),
pending shareholder approval at a special shareholders' meeting to be held later in 2002. The name change is in response to the continuing brand recognition related to the SCO OpenServer and SCO
UnixWare product lines.

On
May 30, 2002, we and other Linux vendors including Connectiva, SuSe and TurboLinux announced the organization of UnitedLinux, a new initiative expected to streamline Linux
development and certification around a global, uniform distribution of Linux for business. UnitedLinux is expected to address enterprise customers' need for a standard business-focused Linux product
that is certified to work across hardware and software platforms and to accelerate the adoption of Linux and increase the number of business applications. Each of the four Linux companies involved in
the initiative will collaborate on the development of one common core Linux operating system. We anticipate bundling current Linux product offerings and services with the UnitedLinux operating system
and selling these products under the SCO brand.

A
significant number of vendors supplying technology infrastructure used by businesses have voiced support for the UnitedLinux initiative. Some of these vendors include AMD, Borland
Software, Computer Associates, Fujitsu Siemens, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Intel, NEC, Progress Software and SAP. UnitedLinux is expected to reduce the number of different Linux distributions these
partners will be
required to certify their applications to and to provide a true standards-based Linux operating environment.

Under
the initiative, we will contribute and fund a portion of the total engineering efforts for the development of UnitedLinux. Additionally, for products that incorporate UnitedLinux
that we sell under the SCO brand, a per unit royalty will be paid. The amounts we expect to pay under the UnitedLinux initiative will be considerably less than the costs that were incurred by us to
fund our own Linux development.

Overview

We originally incorporated as Caldera Systems, Inc. ("Caldera Systems"), a Utah corporation on August 21, 1998, and reincorporated as a Delaware
corporation on March 6, 2000. In March 2000, we completed an initial public offering of our common stock. On May 7, 2001, we formed the Company as a new holding company under the
name of Caldera International, Inc., to acquire substantially all of the assets and operations of the server and professional services groups of Tarantella Inc., formerly known as The
Santa Cruz Operation, Inc., pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, dated August 1, 2000 and as subsequently amended (the "Tarantella Acquisition"). In connection with this
acquisition, the Company also acquired Caldera Systems. Former holders of shares and options to

18

---

purchase shares of Caldera Systems received an equal number of shares and options to purchase shares in the Company.

Prior
to the acquisition of the OpenServer and UnixWare product lines from Tarantella, substantially all of our revenue was derived from sales of Linux products and related services.
Currently, over 95 percent of our total revenue is derived from UNIX related products and services. Revenue from UNIX related products and services has decreased in each of the quarters since
the acquisition from Tarantella, although our total revenue of $15.4 million for the quarter ended July 31, 2002, is only slightly lower than the total revenue of $15.5 million
for the immediately preceding quarter.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The
Tarantella Acquisition significantly increased our net revenue and operating expenses. Operating results for the first nine months of fiscal 2002 are not directly comparable
to the same period in fiscal 2001 because of the impact of the acquired operations.

We
have reduced the number of employees from 664 at the time of the Tarantella Acquisition to 388 as of July 31, 2002. During the five quarters subsequent to the Tarantella
Acquisition, we have
implemented cost reduction measures related to personnel and excess facilities and have reduced overall operating expenses, and anticipate we will continue to make cost-reduction decisions
in our efforts to achieve profitability. The following table summarizes our reduction of ongoing operating expenses during the past five quarters (in thousands):

THREE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2002 AND 2001

During
the remainder of fiscal 2002, we anticipate that as a percentage of total revenue, sales and marketing, research and development and general and administrative expenses will
continue to be significantly less than fiscal 2001 due to the implementation of cost-reduction measures.

Revenue

Revenue was $15.4 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2002, and $18.9 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2001, representing a decrease of
$3.5 million, or 18 percent. During the third quarter of fiscal 2002, 82 percent of our revenue was generated from the sale of products and 18 percent of our revenue was
generated from services. During the third quarter of fiscal 2001, 85 percent of our revenue was generated from the sale of products and 15 percent of our revenue was generated from
services. Revenue from international customers accounted for 48 percent of total revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and 56 percent for the third quarter of fiscal 2001.

Products.Product revenue was $12.6 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and $16.1 million for the
third quarter of fiscal 2001, representing a decrease of $3.5 million, or 21 percent. The decrease in product revenue during the third quarter of fiscal 2002 from the third quarter of
fiscal 2001 was attributable to decreased sales of OpenServer and UnixWare products and a reduction in information technology spending caused by the worldwide economic slowdown. Product revenue
derived from Linux

19

---

products and integrated Linux and UNIX products was less than five percent of total product revenue during the third quarter of fiscal 2002.

Services.Service revenue was $2.7 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and $2.8 million for the third
quarter of fiscal 2001, representing a slight decrease of $0.1 million, or two percent. The majority of our services revenue continues to be derived from customers currently using
UNIX-based operating systems.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of Products Revenue.Cost of products revenue was $1.6 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and
$3.2 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2001, representing a decrease of $1.6 million, or 51 percent. Cost of products revenue as a percentage of products revenue was
12 percent for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and 20 percent for the third quarter of fiscal 2001. The decrease in the cost of
products revenue percentage for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2001 was attributable primarily to reduced overhead costs and decreased royalties.

For
the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002, we expect the cost of products revenue as a percentage of products revenue to decrease slightly from the third quarter of fiscal 2002.

Cost of Services Revenue.Cost of services revenue was $2.5 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and
$3.1 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2001, representing a decrease of $0.6 million, or 19 percent. Cost of services revenue as a percentage of services revenue was
91 percent for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and 110 percent for the third quarter of fiscal 2001. The decreased cost of services revenue as a percentage of services revenue for the
third quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2001 was attributable to decreased employee and related costs in our support services and professional services organization as
well as the elimination of certain third party support contracts.

For
the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002, we expect cost of services revenue as a percentage of services revenue will decline slightly from the third quarter of fiscal 2002.

Operating Expenses

Sales and Marketing.Sales and marketing expenses were $6.9 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and
$13.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2001, representing a decrease of $6.1 million, or 47 percent. Sales and marketing expenses represented 45 percent of total
revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and were 69 percent of total revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2001. The decrease in the dollar amount of sales and marketing expense in the
third quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2001 was attributable to a reduction in sales and marketing employees, reduced travel expenses, and less commissions and lower
co-operative advertising costs as a result of lower revenue.

Research and Development.Research and development expenses were $4.3 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and
$6.7 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2001, representing a decrease of $2.4 million, or 36 percent. Research and development costs represented 28 percent of total
revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and 35 percent of total revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2001. The decrease in the dollar amount of research and development expenses in the
third quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2001 was primarily attributable to lower employee and related costs due to fewer employees and reduced outside consulting and
contract services.

General and Administrative.General and administrative expenses were $2.3 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2002
and $2.7 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2001, representing a decrease of $0.4 million, or 16 percent. General and administrative expenses represented 15 percent of
total

20

---

revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and 14 percent of total revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2001. The decrease in the dollar amount of general and administrative expenses in
the third quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2001 was primarily attributable to reduced employee and related costs due to fewer general and administrative employees and
reduced costs for outside professional services. However, general and administrative expenses have not decreased as much as the decrease in revenue so they represent a slightly higher percentage of
revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2001.

Restructuring Charges.During the third quarter of fiscal 2002, we recorded a net restructuring charge of
$1.2 million. The net restructuring charge for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 was comprised of termination payments made to employees in connection with a reduction in headcount and the
elimination of non-essential facilities totaling $2.8 million, offset by a $1.6 million reduction from a successful lease renegotiation on one of our facilities that had been
vacated in connection with a previous corporate restructuring. During the third quarter of fiscal 2001 the Company did not have a restructuring charge.

Amortization of Intangibles.The Company recorded $0.7 million of amortization in the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and
$5.0 million in amortization in the third quarter of fiscal 2001 related to the amortization of intangible assets in connection with the acquisition of the assets and operations from Tarantella
and the WhatIfLinux technology acquired from Acrylis, Inc. The significant decrease in amortization was attributable to a $73.7 million impairment loss that was recorded in the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2001. Additionally, effective November 1, 2001, we ceased amortizing goodwill in accordance with the adoption of SFAS No. 142.

Loss on Disposition and Write-downs of Property and Equipment.During the third quarter of fiscal 2002, we recorded a write
down of property and equipment no longer in service of $0.2 million. No similar write down was recorded during the third quarter of fiscal 2001.

Non-cash Compensation (Benefit).In connection with stock option grants made to employees in prior years,
the Company recorded non-cash benefit of ($89,000) for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and non-cash compensation of $0.4 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2001. The benefit
in non-cash compensation for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 results from an adjustment of $0.6 million for non-cash compensation previously recorded related to
non-vested stock options forfeited by employees who terminated in the third quarter of fiscal 2002.

Write-down of Investments.During the third quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company determined that the current
carrying value of one of its investments would not be realized and a write-down was necessary. The Company recorded a write-down of approximately $2.6 million related to
this investment. The
Company did not have any investment impairment charges during the third quarter of fiscal 2002. As of July 31, 2002, all of the Company's investments in other entities had been written down to
$0.

In-process Research and Development.In connection with the acquisition of the assets and operations from
Tarantella, the Company recorded a charge of $1.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2001 for the fair value of in-process research and development. The write-off
was necessary because the acquired in-process research and development had not yet reached technological feasibility and had no future alternative uses.

Other Income (Expense), net

Other income (expense), net, which consists principally of interest expense, interest income and other income, was $(0.1) million for the third quarter of
fiscal 2002 and $0.8 million for the third

21

---

quarter of fiscal 2001. The change between the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and the third quarter of fiscal 2001 is primarily attributable to lower interest income from decreased cash balances.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes was $0.2 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and $0.2 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2001. The
provision for income taxes was primarily related to earnings of foreign subsidiaries.

NINE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2002 AND 2001

As
discussed above, the Tarantella Acquisition significantly increased our revenue and continuing operating expenses. Revenue for the nine months ended July 31, 2002 was
$48.8 million, an increase of $27.3 million from revenue of $21.5 million for the nine months ended July 31, 2001. Continuing operating expenses for the nine months ended
July 31, 2002 were $44.3 million, an increase of $4.4 million from continuing operating expenses of $39.9 million for the nine months ended July 31, 2001. The increase in
continuing operating expenses was not as large as the increase in revenue due to our continued cost reduction measures. Because the revenue and continuing operating results for the nine months ended
July 31, 2002 are not directly comparable to the same period in fiscal 2001 because of the impact of the acquired operations, we have prepared a separate analysis included under the caption
"Pro Forma Nine Months Ended July 31, 2002 and 2001" in the following section.

PRO FORMA NINE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2002 AND 2001

The
following table shows our pro forma results of operations for the nine months ended July 31, 2001, assuming the Tarantella Acquisition had been completed at the
beginning of fiscal 2001 (in thousands):

The
pro forma adjustments above consist primarily of the amortization of goodwill and intangible assets as a result of the Tarantella Acquisition. The following discussion assumes the
Tarantella Acquisition had been in effect for the nine months ended July 31, 2001.

Revenue

Revenue was $48.8 million for the first three quarters of fiscal 2002 and $70.0 million (pro forma) for the first three quarters of fiscal 2001, a
decrease of $21.2 million, or 30 percent. The decrease in revenue is primarily attributable to decreased sales of our UNIX products and related services as well as a reduction in
information technology spending throughout the world. During the first three quarters

22

---

of fiscal 2002, 82 percent of our revenue was generated from the sale of products and 18 percent of our revenue was generated from services. During the first three quarters of fiscal
2001, 86 percent of pro forma revenue was generated from the sale of products and 14 percent of our pro forma revenue was generated from services. The decrease in product revenue as a
percentage of total revenue is attributed to decreasing product revenue while services revenue has remained relatively flat over the same period.

Cost of Revenue and Gross Margin

Cost of revenue was $15.2 million for the first three quarters of fiscal 2002 and $23.0 million (pro forma) for the first three quarters of fiscal
2001, a decrease of $7.8 million or 34 percent. The decrease in cost of revenue during the fiscal 2002 period was primarily attributable to decreased revenue. Gross margin for the first
three quarters of fiscal 2002 was 69 percent and gross margin for the first three quarters of fiscal 2001 was 67 percent (pro forma).

Operating Expenses

Sales and Marketing.Sales and marketing expenses were $22.9 million for the first three quarters of fiscal 2002 and
$45.3 million (pro forma) for the first three quarters of fiscal 2001, a decrease of $22.4 million or 49 percent. Sales and marketing expenses represented 47 percent of
total revenue for the first three quarters of fiscal 2002, a decline from 65 percent (pro forma) of total revenue for the first three quarters of fiscal 2001. The significant decrease in sales
and marketing expenses is attributable to our recent restructuring activities that have resulted in reduced sales and marketing employees and other internal efforts designed to improve the efficiency
of our sales operations. Other decreases in sales and marketing expenses have resulted from decreased travel and lower commissions and less co-operative advertising as a result of lower
revenue.

Research and Development.Research and development expenses were $13.8 million for the first three quarters of fiscal
2002 and $20.8 million (pro forma) for the first three quarters of fiscal 2001, a decrease of $7.0 million, or 34 percent. Research and development expenses represented
28 percent of total revenue for the first three quarters of fiscal 2002, a slight decrease from 30 percent (pro forma) of total revenue for the first three quarters of fiscal 2001. The
decrease in the dollar amount of research and development costs in the fiscal 2002 quarters compared to the fiscal 2001 quarters is primarily attributable to decreased salaries and related costs due
to fewer engineers and our efforts to consolidate development work on our operating systems.

General and Administrative.General and administrative expenses were $7.5 million for the first three quarters of
fiscal 2002 and $11.8 million (pro forma) for the first three quarters of fiscal 2001, a decrease of $4.3 million, or 37 percent. General and administrative expenses represented
15 percent of total revenue for the first three quarters of fiscal 2002, a decrease from 17 percent (pro forma) of total revenue for the first three quarters of fiscal 2001. The decrease
in general and administrative expenses is primarily attributable to our recent restructuring activities that has resulted in reduced employees and related costs.

Other.Other expenses consist primarily of amortization of intangible assets, non-cash compensation,
restructuring charges and the write-down of investments. Other expenses were $10.9 million for the first three quarters of fiscal 2002 and $26.8 million (pro forma) for the
first three quarters of fiscal 2001. The decrease for the first three quarters of fiscal 2002 compared to the first three quarters of fiscal 2002 is primarily attributable to significantly lower
non-cash amortization and decreased write-downs of investments.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Since
inception, we have funded our operations primarily through loans from our major stockholder and through sales of common and preferred stock.

As
of July 31, 2002, we had cash and cash equivalents of $9.6 million and a working capital deficit of $3.5 million, which includes $11.3 million of deferred
revenue which will not require cash to settle, but will be recognized as revenue in future periods. Our total cash and marketable securities decreased by $18.8 million from October 31,
2001 to July 31, 2002. This decrease resulted from cash used in operations, $5.0 million of cash used in the settlement of our $8.0 million face value note payable to Tarantella
and $4.6 million used to purchase shares of Caldera common stock held by two significant shareholders.

24

---



Our net cash used in operations during the nine months ended July 31, 2002 was $9.7 million. Cash used in operations was primarily attributable to the net loss of
$22.1 million partially offset by non-cash expenses of $7.8 million and cash provided by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $4.6 million. Cash used in
operations has declined primarily due to our recent cost-cutting actions as well as improved collections on our accounts receivable.

Our
investing activities have historically consisted of equipment purchases, investing in strategic partners and the purchase and sale of available-for-sale
securities. During the nine months ended July 31, 2002, cash provided by investing activities was $5.7 million, which was primarily generated from the sale of
available-for-sale securities.

Our
financing activities used $9.2 million during the nine months ended July 31, 2002 and consisted primarily of a $5.0 million payment to retire the note
payable to Tarantella and $4.6 million for the purchase of shares of our common stock held by two investors. These were offset by proceeds received from the exercise of stock options and the
purchase of shares of common stock by our employees through our employee stock purchase program.

Our
net accounts receivable balance decreased from $16.7 million as of October 31, 2001 to $11.0 million as of July 31, 2002, primarily related to strong
collection efforts and a decline in revenue. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $0.4 million as of July 31, 2002, which represented approximately 4 percent of our gross
accounts receivable balance. Our write-offs of uncollectable accounts have not been material.

We
generate revenue in Central and South America. Historically, revenue and expenses in this region have not been significant. In recent quarters, the economies of the countries of this
region, Argentina in particular, have experienced significant volatility. We have reviewed our sales to customers and our accounts receivable from customers in this region and have established
reserves for potential bad debts as we believe appropriate. We believe our overall exposure related to transactions in this region is not material.

We
have entered into operating leases for our corporate offices located in the United States and our international sales offices. We have commitments under these leases that extend
through fiscal 2008. In recent corporate restructuring activities, we have partially vacated some of these facilities, but still have contractual obligations to continue to make ongoing lease payments
that will use available cash. We have pursued and will continue to pursue sublease opportunities, as available, to minimize this use of
cash; however, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in eliminating or reducing cash expenditures for these leases.

The
following table summarizes our contractual lease obligations as of July 31, 2002 (in thousands):

In
connection with the acquisition of the server and professional services groups from Tarantella, Tarantella agreed to continue as the lessee for certain facilities in the UK that it
would retain and use. The Company and Tarantella have completed assignment agreements for these leases and Tarantella will be the lease tenant and will have financial responsibility for these leases.
However, our UK subsidiary has been named as a second guarantor on these operating leases, and may be liable under these lease obligations in the event that Tarantella defaults. Future operating lease
payments under

these leases extend through 2020 and total $10.7 million. This potential obligation is not included in the above table.

are continuing to implement cost reduction measures in our efforts to achieve profitability. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002, we anticipate our operations will use
approximately $4.5 to $5.5 million of cash. Additionally, we believe that we will have sufficient cash through at least January 31, 2003, and anticipate that we will exit our first
quarter of fiscal 2003, which ends January 31, 2003, operating at EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) break even. However, there can be no assurance that we
will be successful in achieving our revenue and operating expense projections. Accordingly, we may be required to obtain additional equity or debt funding to finance our operations. We have engaged an
investment banking firm to assist us in raising equity capital and anticipate receiving firm commitments from investors prior to October 31, 2002, our fiscal year end, and closing an equity
transaction before the end of calendar year 2002. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining additional equity capital in amounts or on terms
acceptable to us. If sufficient funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, our operations could be adversely impacted and our ability to continue in operation may be in
question.

We
do not engage in any off balance sheet financing arrangements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our
critical accounting policies include the following:



We
recognize revenue in accordance with Statement of Accounting Position ("SOP") 97-2, as amended, and Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") 101. Revenue recognition in
accordance with these pronouncements can be complex due to the nature and variability of our sales transactions. We recognize product revenue upon shipment if a signed contract exists, the fee is
fixed and determinable, collection of resulting receivables is probable and product returns are reasonably estimable, except for sales to distributors, which are recognized upon sale by the
distributor to resellers or end users. For contracts involving multiple elements (i.e. delivered and undelivered products, maintenance and other services), we allocate revenue to each component of the
contract based on objective evidence of its fair value, which is specific to us. The fair value of each element is based on the price if sold separately. We recognize revenue allocated to undelivered
products when the criteria for product revenue set forth above have been met.

We
recognize revenue from maintenance fees for ongoing customer support and product updates ratably over the period of the maintenance contract. Payments for maintenance fees are
generally made in advance and are non-refundable. For revenue allocated to education and consulting services or derived from the separate sale of such services, we recognize revenue as the
related services are performed. We recognize product revenue from royalty payments upon receipt of quarterly royalty reports from OEMs related to their product sales.

Further
implementation guidelines relating to SOP 97-2 and related modifications may result in unanticipated changes in our revenue recognition practices and such changes
could significantly affect our future revenue and results of operations.

We
review our long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the book value of an asset may not be recoverable. We evaluate, at each
balance sheet date, whether events and circumstances have occurred which indicate possible impairment. The carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired when the anticipated
cumulative undiscounted cash

26

---

flows of the related asset or group of assets is less than the carrying value. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair market
value of the long-lived asset.

Subsequent
to the acquisition of certain assets and operations from Tarantella, we experienced significant unanticipated decreases in actual and forecasted revenue of the acquired
operations, a significant decline in market valuations and general conditions, particularly in the information technology sector, a weakening of partner relationships, the loss of certain key
executives and other factors which indicated the recorded values of the long-lived assets were impaired. As a result, we performed a valuation of our long-lived assets as of
October 31, 2001 and concluded that a $73.7 million write-down of goodwill and intangible assets was necessary. As a result of this write-down and other smaller
purchase price adjustments, at July 31, 2002, we have a net remaining balance for intangible assets of $12.0 million and a net remaining balance for goodwill of $0.

Had
different assumptions or criteria been used to evaluate and measure the impairment, the amount of the impairment write-off could have been materially different than the
$73.7 million recorded. Further write downs of goodwill and intangibles may be necessary if the future cash flows of these assets are less than the carrying value.

We
offer credit terms on the sale of our products to a significant majority of our customers and require no collateral from these customers. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our
customers' financial condition and maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based upon our historical collection experience and expected collectibility of all accounts receivable. We
also maintain an allowance for estimated returns based on our historical experience. Our actual bad debts and returns may differ from our estimates and the differences may be material.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK

We
have many foreign offices and operations primarily in Europe and Asia. As a result, a substantial portion of our revenue is derived from sales to customers outside the United States.
Most of this international revenue is denominated in U.S. dollars. However, a substantial portion of the operating expenses related to the foreign-based sales are denominated in foreign currencies and
therefore operating results are affected by changes in the U.S. dollar exchange rate in relation to foreign currencies such as the U.K. pound sterling and the Euro, among others. If the U.S. dollar
weakens compared to the U.K. pound sterling and the Euro, our operating expenses of foreign operations will be higher when translated back into U.S. dollars and additional funds may be required to
meet these obligations. Our revenue can also be affected by general economic conditions in the United States, Europe and other international markets. Our results of operations may be affected in the
short term by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Historically, these amounts have not been significant.

INTEREST RATE RISK

The
primary objective of our cash management strategy is to invest available funds in a manner that assures maximum safety and liquidity and maximizes yield within such constraints. We
do not borrow money for short-term investment purposes.

INVESTMENT RISK

We
have invested in equity instruments of privately held and public companies in the high-technology industry for business and strategic purposes. Investments are accounted
for under the cost method if our ownership is less than 20 percent and we are not able to exercise influence over

27

---

operations. Our investment policy is to regularly review the assumptions and operating performance of these companies and to record impairment losses when events and circumstances indicate that these
investments may be impaired. As of July 31, 2002, all of the Company's investments in other entities had been written down to $0.

The
stock market in general, and the market for shares of technology companies in particular, has experienced extreme price fluctuations. In addition, factors such as new product
introductions by our competitors and us may have a significant impact on the market price of our common stock. Furthermore, quarter-to-quarter fluctuations in our results of
operations caused by changes in customer demand may have a significant impact on the market price of our stock. These conditions could cause the price of our stock to fluctuate substantially over
short periods of time.

Risk Factors

We have not been profitable.

We have not been profitable. If our revenue continues to decline or we are unable to efficiently further reduce operating expenses, we may not achieve
profitability or generate positive cash flow. For the three months ended July 31, 2002, we incurred a net loss of $4.5 million. If we are unable to achieve positive cash flow from
operations, we will not be able to implement our business plan without additional funding, which may not be available to us.

If our SCO branding effort is not accepted or causes market confusion, our business may be adversely affected.

We have recently launched a rebranding effort for our products and services. On August 26, 2002, we announced that, subject to shareholder approval, we
would change our corporate name to The SCO Group, Inc. In connection with this announcement, we have renamed our UNIX products and services using the SCO trademark to draw on this strong brand
recognition. We acquired the rights to use this trademark in May 2001 from Tarantella in connection with our acquisition of certain Tarantella assets and operations. If the rebranding effort is
not accepted by our resellers or customers of our products and services, if the rebranding effort causes market confusion, or if there are negative connotations associated with the trademark that we
cannot successfully address, our business may be adversely effected.

If our recently launched products and services are not accepted in the marketplace, our business may be adversely affected.

We have recently launched two new strategic initiatives. In May 2002, we and other Linux vendors including Connectiva, SuSe and TurboLinux announced the
organization of UnitedLinux, a new initiative that will streamline Linux development and certification around a global, uniform distribution of Linux for business. In August 2002, we announced
SCObiz, an e-business solution for creating, listing, maintaining supporting, and marketing web sites for small businesses. This product is based on our exclusive license agreement with
Vista.com. If our resellers or customers do not accept these initiatives, or if the products fail to perform as expected, our business may be adversely affected.

You should not rely on our quarterly operating results as an indication of our future results. Fluctuations in our operating results or the failure of our operating results to
meet the expectations of public market analysts and investors may negatively impact our stock price.

Fluctuations in our quarterly operating results or our failure to meet the expectations of analysts or investors, even in the short-term, could cause
our stock price to decline. You should not rely on

28

---

quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our results of operations as an indication of future performance. Factors that may affect our quarterly results include:



We
also experience fluctuations in operating results in interim periods in Europe and the Asia Pacific regions due to seasonal slowdowns and economic conditions in these areas. Seasonal
slowdowns in these regions typically occur during the summer months.

As
a result of the factors listed above and elsewhere, it is possible that our results of operations may be below the expectations of public market analysts and investors in any
particular period. This could cause our stock price to decline. If revenue falls below our expectations and we are unable to quickly reduce our spending in response, our operating results would be
lower than expected and our stock price may fall.

We rely on our indirect sales channel for distribution of our products, and any disruption of our channel at any level could adversely affect the sales of our products.

We have a two-tiered distribution channel. The relationships we have developed with resellers allow us to offer our Linux and UNIX products and
services to a much larger customer base than we would otherwise be able to reach through our own direct sales and marketing efforts. Some electronic solution providers also purchase solutions through
our resellers, and we anticipate they will continue to do so as we expand our product offerings. Because we usually sell indirectly through resellers, we cannot control the relationships through which
solution providers or equipment integrators purchase our products. In turn, we do not control the presentation of our products to end-users. Therefore, our sales could be affected by
disruptions in the relationships between our resellers and electronic solution providers or between electronic solution providers and end users. Also, resellers and electronic solution providers may
choose not to emphasize our products to their customers. Any of these occurrences could diminish the effectiveness of our distribution channel and lead to decreased sales.

If the market for our Linux products does not grow as we anticipate or if the UNIX market continues to contract, we may not be able to grow our business.

Our revenue from the sale of UNIX based products and services has declined in each of the five quarters since we acquired these operations from Tarantella. Sales
of Linux based products are dependent on the development of certifiable, reliable products for business and the acceptance and adoption of Linux based operating systems by businesses. If the demand
for UNIX based products continues to decline, or if such demand is not replaced by new demand for Linux-based products, we may not be able to successfully implement our business plan.

29

---

We operate in a highly competitive market and face significant competition from a variety of current and potential sources, including Red Hat and Sun Microsystems; many of our
current and potential competitors have greater financial and technical resources than we do; thus, we may fail to compete effectively.

Our principal competitors in the Linux market include Red Hat, Sun and SuSe. In addition, due to the open source nature of Linux, anyone can freely download Linux
and many Linux applications and modify and re-distribute them with few restrictions. For example, solution providers upon whom we depend for the distribution of our products could instead
create their own Linux solutions to provide to their customers. Also, established companies and other institutions could produce competing versions of Linux software.

In
the Intel UNIX operating system market, our competitors include Microsoft, Hewlett Packard and Sun. These competitors are aggressively pursuing the current UNIX operating system
market. Many of
these competitors have access to greater resources that we do. More recently, the major competitive alternative to our UNIX and Linux products is Microsoft's NT. While we believe that our server
products retain a competitive advantage in a number of targeted application areas, the expansion of Microsoft's and our other competitors' offerings may restrict the overall market available for our
server products, including some markets where we have been successful in the past.

Our foreign-based operations and sales create special problems, including the imposition of governmental controls and fluctuations in currency exchange rates that could hurt
our results.

We have foreign operations, including development facilities, sales personnel and customer support operations in Europe, Latin America and Southeast Asia. These
foreign operations are subject to certain inherent risks, including:



In
addition, certain of our operating expenses are denominated in local currencies, creating risk of foreign currency translation losses that could harm our financial results and cash
flows. When we generate profits in foreign countries, our effective income tax rate is increased, even though we generate consolidated net losses.

In
Latin America and Southeast Asia in particular, several countries have suffered and may be especially susceptible to recessions and economic instability which may lead to increased
governmental ownership or regulation of the economy, higher interest rates, increased barriers to entry such as higher tariffs and taxes, and reduced demand for goods manufactured in the United States
resulting in lower revenue.

Our competitive position could decline if we are unable to obtain additional financing.

We may need to raise additional funds to expand our business, support operations, respond to competitive pressures, acquire complementary businesses or
technologies or respond to unanticipated

30

---

requirements. We cannot assure you that additional funding will be available to us in amounts or on terms acceptable to us. If sufficient funds are not available or are not available on acceptable
terms, our ability to fund our expansion, take advantage of acquisition opportunities, develop or enhance our services or products, or otherwise respond to competitive pressures would be significantly
limited.

The impact of domestic and global economic conditions may adversely impact our operations.

During the last several quarters the U.S. economy has experienced an economic slowdown that has affected the purchasing habits of many consumers across many
industries and across many geographies. This has caused the delay, or even cancellation of technology purchases. The ultimate impact of the slowdown in the United States is difficult to predict, but
it has resulted in decreased sales of our products, longer sales cycles and lower prices. If the current slowdown continues, our revenue and results of operations may continue to be lower than
expected. In addition, the slowdown may also affect the end-user market making it more difficult for our reseller channel to sell our products.

Our
operations are vulnerable to fires, earthquakes, power loss, telecommunications failure, and other events outside our control. The occurrence of any one of these events may have a
material adverse impact on our results of operations.

Future sales of our common stock may negatively affect our stock price.

Certain holders of our common stock have demand and piggyback registration rights obligating us to register their shares under the Securities Act for sale. The
market price of our common stock could decline as a result of sales of a large number of shares of our common stock in the market, or the perception that such sales could occur. This also might make
it more difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that we deem appropriate.
