              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)
                                  JUNE 30, 1999

1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going
concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction
of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the financial
statements, during the quarters ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, GateField
Corporation, (the "company") incurred net losses of approximately $2,829,000 and
$2,411,000, respectively and had stockholders deficits of approximately
$8,770,000 at June 30, 1999 and $5,038,000 at December 31, 1998. The company
must successfully introduce its .25 micron products into the market and
successfully manufacture sufficient quantities to support its sales and
marketing introduction to reach cash flow breakeven. If the company fails to
significantly increase revenues within the next six to nine months it will have
to obtaining additional financing in order to fund planned operating levels or
cease or significantly reduce operations.

         The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and
classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the company be
unable to continue as a going concern. The company's continuation as a going
concern is dependent upon its ability to complete its new product development
and begin commercial sales, and ultimately obtain sufficient customer demand to
attain profitable operations. Management intends to closely manage its operating
expenses, begin sales of new products currently in development and obtain
additional financing to cover its additional cash flow requirements until it
reaches a break-even level of operations. No assurance can be given that the
company will be successful in these efforts.

         Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the full year. The company's interim fiscal quarter
ended on June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The condensed consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 1998, included in the
company's Form 10-K.

2.   INVENTORIES

         On June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998 the company had finished goods
inventory of $9,000 and $117,000, respectively.

3.   CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

         In May 1999, the company issued a convertible promissory note in the
aggregate principal amount of $8.0 million (the Note). The Note accrues interest
at 5.22% per annum, has a five-year term and is secured by a lien against all
the assets of the company. The Note is convertible into 420,000 shares of the
company's Series C-1 Convertible Preferred Stock. The Series C-1 Convertible
Preferred Stock is in turn convertible into 1,230,769 shares of the company's
common stock, or the equivalent price of $6.50 per share of common stock.

         The Note is convertible at the option of the noteholder. On the date
of issuance the Note was convertible into common stock at a price equal to
approximately a 13% discount (the Conversion Discount) to the closing market
price as reported on the OTCBB. The Conversion Discount of $1.2 million was
recognized during the second quarter of 1999 by the company as a non-cash
interest expense with a corresponding increase in the common stock additional
paid in capital.

4.   REVERSE STOCK SPLIT

     In March 1999 the company's Board of Directors approved a ten for one
reverse stock split of the company's common stock. In June 1999 the company's
shareholders approved the reverse stock split. The reverse split became
effective on June 30, 199 (the "Effective Date"). No fractional shares were
issued. In lieu of any such fractional share interest, each

                                      6
<PAGE>

holder will receive cash in an amount equal to the product obtained by
multiplying (i) the closing sales price of the company's Common Stock on the
Effective Date as reported on the OTCBB by (ii) the number of shares of
Common Stock held by such holder that would otherwise have been exchanged for
such fractional share interest.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 AND 1998

REVENUES

         Total revenues declined to $662,000, or 81%, in the quarter ended
June 30, 1999 from $3,468,000 for the same period last year. Total product
revenues in the quarter ended June 30, 1999 declined to $482,000 from
$1,359,000 for the same period last year. ProASIC product revenues for the
quarter ended June 30, 1999 include the recognition of $312,000 in license
fees from Rohm Co. Ltd. in Kyoto, Japan that were collected and deferred in
fiscal 1998. The decline in ProASIC revenues was due to the company's
decision to halt active sales efforts for the 0.72-micron product in the
third quarter of 1998 and ultimately terminate the sale of these products in
the second quarter of 1999. The company expects that a significant portion of
future revenues, if any, will come from the commercialization of its
0.25-micron products. The company believes that it will begin selling its
0.25-micron product in the third quarter of fiscal 1999. However, no
assurance can be given that the company's design and introduction schedules
for such products can be met. Moreover, there can be no assurances that, even
if such products are introduced into the market on a timely basis, they will
be successfully developed or that they will achieve market acceptance. To the
extent that the company's development and commercialization efforts with
respect to the 0.25-micron products are unsuccessful or if these products do
not achieve market acceptance, the company's business, financial condition
and results of operations would be materially adversely affected.

         Service revenues declined to $180,000 for the quarter ended June 30,
1999 from $2,109,000 for the same quarter last year. Service revenues are
comprised of two components: (i) maintenance contracts on the company's
verification systems and (ii) design services. Revenues from maintenance
contracts on the company's verification systems were $176,000 in the second
quarter of 1999 as compared to $1,258,000 in the second quarter of 1998. The
decline in verification maintenance revenues is the result of the sale of the
verification product assets in 1997. Revenues from maintenance contracts on the
company's verification systems earned in the second quarters of 1999 and 1998
represent the company's portion of a profit sharing agreement with the purchaser
of the verification assets. The company expects revenues from this source to
continue to decline at an accelerated rate and to cease in 1999. The company did
not generate any service fees from its design services for the quarter ended
June 30, 1999 because the company sold those assets to Actel Corporation in
August 1998. Service fees related to the company's design services were $851,000
in the quarter ended June 30, 1998.

         Total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 1999 decreased to
$1,114,000 from $5,317,000 for the same period last year. Product revenue for
the six months ended June 30, 1999 was $624,000, compared to $1,999,000 for the
comparable period last year. Service revenue was $490,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 1999; compared to $3,318,000 for the same period last year. The
decrease in product revenue and service revenue represents the transition of

                                      7
<PAGE>

the company's business as a manufacturer of verification products to a
designer, developer and marketer of high-density, high-performance FPGA
products. The company expects that service revenue will decline to zero over
the balance of the year.

GROSS PROFIT

         Gross profit for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 was $330,000, as
compared to $1,377,000, for the same period last year. Gross profit from ProASIC
product revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 was $173,000 as compared to
a gross loss of ($127,000) for the quarter ended June 30, 1998. Poor
manufacturing yields on the 0.72-micron product wafers caused actual costs to
exceed revenues on those products for the quarter ended June 30, 1998. As the
design and manufacturing processes are different for the 0.72-micron and the
0.25-micron products, the yields and, hence, the gross profits on the two
products are unrelated. Furthermore, the 0.25-micron product has not been
manufactured in commercial quantities. Therefore, the company cannot predict its
margins for 1999 with any degree of certainty. Gross profit related to
0.72-micron products is expected to cease in the third quarter of 1999 as the
company does not expect to sell this product in future quarters.

         Gross profit from service revenues was $180,000 in the quarter ended
June 30, 1999, as compared to $1,504,000 in the same period last year. Gross
profit related to maintenance contracts on the verification systems was
$176,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 1999, as compared to $1,256,000 in the
same period last year. The company expects that revenues related to
maintenance contracts on the verification systems will decline to zero in the
remainder of 1999 and, therefore, will not contribute to gross profit. Gross
profit related to design services were $248,000, or 29% of revenue for the
quarter ended June 30, 1998. Because revenue from design services ceased in
August 1998, the company does not expect any gross profit contribution from
this source for the remainder of 1999. Therefore, gross profit from service
revenues is not expected to be significant over the balance of 1999.

         Gross profit for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999 was $407,000
compared to $1,416,000 for the same period last year. The gross profit from
product revenues was $55,000 or 9% of revenues, for the six month period ended
June 30, 1999 as compared to a loss of $537,000 for the same period last year.
Gross profit from service revenues was $352,000, or 72% of revenues, for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 compared to $1,953,000, or 59%, for the same period
last year.

SALES AND MARKETING

         Sales and marketing expenses were $197,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 1999 as compared to $1,359,000 for the three months ended June
30, 1998. Sales and marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1999
and June 30, 1998 were $385,000 and $2,274,000, respectively. The decrease
represents the termination of the company's sales and marketing personnel in
connection with the sale of the company's worldwide distribution rights to
its 0.25-micron and below products to Actel in August 1998. Expenses incurred
in the second quarter of 1999 relate to the company's efforts to prepare for
the 0.25-micron product introduction and the company's efforts to support
strategic initiatives and new product designs. The company expects quarterly
sales and marketing expenses to remain relatively flat for the remainder of
the year.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

         Research and development expenses for the three months ended June
30, 1999 were $1,079,000 as compared to $1,399,000 for the three months ended
June 30, 1998. Research and development expenses for the six months ended
June 30, 1999 and June 30, 1998 were $2,426,000 and $2,696,000, respectively.
The decrease in the quarter ended June 30, 1999 represents a decrease in mask
costs for the 0.25-micron product development and normal fluctuations in
operating expenses. The company expects quarterly research and development
expenses to be between $1.2 million and $1.5 million per quarter for the
remainder of the year.

                                      8
<PAGE>

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE

         General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30,
1999 and 1998 were $693,000 and $785,000, respectively. The decrease represents
reduced head count. General and administrative expenses for the six months ended
June 30, 1998 and 1997 were $1,433,000 and $1,550,000 respectively. The company
expects these expenses to remain relatively flat for the remainder of the year.
However, general and administrative expenses may increase in future quarters due
to legal and accounting expenses incurred in connection with future financings.

OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSES

         Other expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 were $1,208,000 as
compared to other expenses of $154,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1998.
Other expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 were $1,252,000
and $179,000 respectively. The increase in 1999 is due to a $1.2 million
non-cash interest expense that the company recognized on the date of issuance of
a convertible promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $8.0 million
to Actel (see note 3).

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         At June 30, 1999, the company had cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $6,423,000 and working capital of $1,212,000. During the six month
periods ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, the company incurred net losses of
approximately $5,053,000 and $5,284,000, respectively. The company expects to
continue to generate such losses for at least the remainder of 1999. As a
result, the company estimates it will have utilized all of its currently
available capital resources on or about March 31, 2000. If the company cannot
generate significant revenues by that date or obtain additional funding, the
company would be unable to continue as a going concern. Many factors could
increase or decrease the company's utilization of its capital resources during
this period. The company cannot predict the timing or the magnitude of those
factors with any degree of certainty. Therefore, the company may need additional
financing at an earlier date. The company cannot assure you that additional
financings will be available, or if available, will be on reasonable terms, nor
can we assure you that these financings will not be dilutive to our
shareholders.

         The company will need to increase revenue significantly in a
relatively short period of time in order to have enough capital to attain
breakeven cash flow from operations. Should the company's product development
costs or the amount of time required to manufacture sufficient quantities of
product increase or should the company's expenditures be greater than
anticipated the company may not have sufficient capital to reach breakeven
cash flow from operations. Therefore, there can be no assurance that the cash
and cash equivalents balance as of June 30, 1999 will be sufficient to meet
the company's capital requirements through March 31, 2000.

         The company has historically used private offerings of convertible debt
and convertible preferred stock, public and private offerings of common stock,
sale and leaseback arrangements and bank financing and credit lines to finance
its business. The company has contacted a number of potential providers of
additional capital, including investment banking firms, financial investors,
customers, potential customers, strategic partners and potential strategic
partners and continues to seek additional funds. If the company is unable to
obtain additional financing on a timely basis when and if needed, the company
will be required to terminate its operations.

         Cash used in operations was $5,264,000 in the first six months of 1999
compared to $5,631,000 for the first six months of 1998. Net cash used by
investing activities during the six-month period ended June 30, 1998 was
$642,000 substantially all of which was for equipment acquisitions. The company
did not acquire any new capital equipment in the first six months of 1999. The
company expects to invest a minimum of $500,000 and possibly as much as
$1,200,000 in mask sets for its new 0.25-micron product in 1999 but does not
anticipate any other significant capital asset acquisitions during the upcoming
year.

         Net cash provided by financing activities was $7,933,000 in the six
months ended June 30, 1999 and represents a convertible promissory note in the
aggregate principal amount of $8.0 million issued to Actel and $161,000 in
employee purchases of stock under certain option plans. That amount compares to
$4,926,000 for the same six month period in 1998

                                      9

which represents the sale of the company's common stock to Idanta Partners,
Ltd. in the amount of $4,583,000 and $300,000 to other option and warrant
holders, respectively.

YEAR 2000 ISSUES

         The following constitutes "Year 2000 Disclosure" under the Year 2000
Information and Readiness Disclosure Act of 1998.

               Background of Year 2000 issues. Many existing information
technology (IT) systems, such as computer systems and software products, as well
as non-IT systems that include embedded technology, were not designed to
correctly process date and time information after December 31, 1999.
Accordingly, computer programs and software may need to be modified prior to the
year 2000 in order to remain functional. Failure to complete necessary
modifications could cause a disruption or failure of such program and system.

         The company has defined Year 2000 compliant as the ability to:

         -     Correctly handle date information needed for the December 31,
               1999 to January 1, 2000 date change;

         -     Function according to the product documentation provided for this
               date change, without changes in operation resulting from the
               advent of a new century, assuming correct configuration;

         -     Respond to two-digit date input in a way that resolves the
               ambiguity as to century in a disclosed, defined and predetermined
               manner;

         -     Store and provide output of date information in ways that are
               unambiguous as to century if the date elements in interfaces and
               data storage specify the century; and

         -     Recognize Year 2000 as a leap year.

               The company has formed a "Year 2000 Team" to identify, access and
resolve Year 2000 compliance issues. The team has completed an inventory of all
material Year 2000 issues.

               Products and IT systems. The company has tested all of its
current products for Year 2000 compliance. The company derived its testing
method from a review and analysis of the Year 2000 testing practices of software
vendors, relevant industry Year 2000 compliance standards and the specific
functionality and operation environments of its products. These tests were run
on all supported platforms for each current release of our product and included
testing for date calculations and internal storage of date information with test
numbers starting in 1999 and going beyond the year 2000. Based on these tests,
the company believes its products are Year 2000 compliant with respect to date
calculations and internal storage of date information. However there can be no
assurance that its tests detected every possible contingency and no assurance
the company will not receive claims from its customers asserting liability,
including liability for breach of warranties related to the failure of its
products and services to function properly.

               To date, the company has not identified any significant areas of
noncompliance with respect to its internal IT systems. It expects that the
assessment and all remedial action for all of its IT systems will be completed
by the end of calendar year 1999. The company intends to take the necessary
steps to make its systems Year 2000 compliant. These steps may require the
company to modify, upgrade or replace some of its internal financial and
operational systems. The cost of bringing all internal systems, equipment and
operations into Year 2000 compliance has not yet been determined. While these
efforts may involve additional costs, the company believes, based upon currently
available information, that these costs will not have a material adverse effect
on the business, financial condition or results of operations of the
company--although no assurances can be given.

         Customers, suppliers, and service providers. The company has surveyed
its significant customers, suppliers, service providers and the sole
manufacturer of its silicon wafers to determine their plans to address Year 2000
issues. The company has received assurances from most of its customers and third
party vendors and anticipates further cooperation in

                                      10
<PAGE>

these efforts, however there can be no assurance such third parties will
indeed be Year 2000 compliant. If any customers have a business interruption
due to Year 2000 compliance issues the company's revenue could be
significantly impacted and the resulting loss in sales for the quarter could
have a material adverse effect on the company's business, financial condition
and results of operation. If any suppliers, service providers or the sole
manufacturer of its silicon wafers fails to appropriately address their Year
2000 issues, such failure could have a material adverse effect on the
company's business, financial condition and results of operation. The company
may not find alternative suppliers, service providers, or an alternative to
its sole manufacturer. In the event that any of our significant suppliers,
service providers or our sole manufacturer does not achieve Year 2000
compliance successfully and in a timely manner, and we are unable to replace
them with alternate sources, our business would be harmed. The Year 2000 Team
has developed contingency plans in the event a third party fails to
appropriately address their Year 2000 issues for every supplier except the
sole manufacturer of our silicon wafers for which an alternative supplier is
not available. Even if the company's assessments, resolutions and contingency
plans are completed and put in place on time, there can be no assurance that
such actions will be sufficient to address any third-party failures. Nor can
the company be assured that unresolved or undetected internal and external
Year 2000 issues with third parties will not have a material adverse effect
on the company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

         The most reasonably likely "worst case" scenario for the company with
respect to the Year 2000 problem is the failure of the company's major
distributor or the company's sole manufacturer of silicon wafers to be Year 2000
compliant such that the sale or distribution of GateField products or the supply
of components for such products is interrupted. This could result in the company
not being able to produce or distribute products for a period of time, which in
turn could result in lost sales and profits. If the company's strategic partners
were to incur a sustained interruption in their ability to manufacture GateField
wafers or sell GateField products, the impact on the company's business,
financial condition and results of operations would be material.

         Recent legislation. Legislation was recently passed by Congress that
purports to limit liability for failure to be Year 2000 compliant. We cannot
assure you that this legislation will limit our liability.

         Although the company believes its Year 2000 Team will identify all of
the company's material Year 2000 issues, given the pervasiveness of Year 2000
issues and the complex interrelationships among Year 2000 issues both internal
and external to the company, there can be no assurance that the company will be
able to identify and accurately evaluate all such issues. As the process of
identifying, accessing and resolving Year 2000 compliance issues proceeds, the
company may identify situations that present material Year 2000 risks and/or
that will require substantial time and material expense to address. Even if the
company's assessments and resolutions are completed on time and put in place,
there can be no assurance that such plans will be sufficient to address any
failures or that unresolved or undetected internal and external Year 2000 issues
will not have a material adverse effect on the company's business, financial
condition and results of operations. The discussion above regarding estimated
completion dates, costs, risks and other forward-looking statements regarding
Year 2000 is based on the company's best estimates given information that is
currently available and is subject to change as the company continues to
progress with its Year 2000 initiatives, it may discover that actual results
will differ materially from these estimates.

FACTORS AFFECTING FUTURE RESULTS

IMMEDIATE NEED FOR ADDITIONAL FUNDING

         At June 30, 1999, the company had cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $6.4 million and working capital of $1,158,000. During the six
months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, the company incurred net losses of
approximately $5.2 million and $5.3 million, respectively. The company expects
to continue to generate losses for at least the remainder of 1999. As a result,
the company expects that it will have utilized all of its currently available
cash on or about March 31, 2000. Many factors could increase or decrease the
company's utilization of its capital resources during this period and the
company may need additional financing at an earlier date. There can be no
assurance that such financing will be available on terms acceptable to the
company and its stockholders, if at all. If the company is unable to obtain
additional financing the company may be required to terminate its operations.

                                      11

DEPENDENCE ON THE SUCCESSFUL DEVELOPMENT OF 0.25-MICRON PRODUCTS

         GateField's success is highly dependent upon the timely completion and
introduction of new products at competitive price and performance levels,
especially the timely introduction of its next generation of 0.25-micron
products. GateField is currently completing initial testing of its 0.25-micron
products and related software. The joint Actel / GateField marketing team began
sampling initial customers in the first quarter of 1999. The company believes
the product will be ready for introduction in the third quarter of 1999.
However, no assurance can be given that the company's design and introduction
schedules for such products will be met. Moreover, there can be no assurances
that, even if such products are introduced into the market on a timely basis,
they will be successfully developed or that they will achieve market acceptance.
To the extent that the company's development and commercialization efforts with
respect to the 0.25-micron products is unsuccessful or if these products do not
achieve market acceptance, the company's business, financial condition and
results of operations would be materially adversely affected.

         The company's 0.25-micron products are highly complex and may contain
undetected or unresolved defects when first introduced or as new versions are
released. There can be no assurance that, despite testing by the company,
defects will not be found in new products, including the company's 0.25-micron
products, or new versions of such products following commercial release. This
could result in loss of market share, delay in or loss of market acceptance or
product recall. Any such occurrence could have a material adverse effect upon
the company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

DEPENDENCE ON INDEPENDENT WAFER MANUFACTURERS

         GateField currently uses a single independent manufacturer, Infineon
Corporation ("Infineon") to provide wafers used in the production of its
products, including its 0.25-micron products. The company has invested
significant amounts of time and resources in working with Infineon to develop
and improve the manufacturing processes relating to GateField's 0.25-micron
product family. Although Infineon has also invested significant resources
into its relationship with GateField, if Infineon were unable or unwilling to
manufacture such products as anticipated by GateField, GateField would be
unable to introduce such products to market on a timely basis, which would
have a material adverse effect on the company's business, financial condition
and results on operations. If this relationship were terminated, the company
would be required to redesign its wafers to make them compatible with the
manufacturing process of a new manufacturer. This process could take up to
twelve (12) months. In addition, the company could lose significant revenue
opportunities while working to achieve volume production with a new vendor.
No assurance can be given that any additional qualified wafer foundries would
become available or be able to satisfy GateField's requirements on a timely
basis.

          GateField's dependence on Infineon for the manufacture of its
products subjects the company to a number of risks associated with an
interruption of supply from a single source. In particular, with respect to
the manufacture of GateField's 0.25-micron products, Infineon will require
significant lead-time to reach volume production on new processes.
Accordingly, no assurance can be given that volume production or acceptable
yields with respect to GateField's new 0.25-micron product family will be
achieved on a timely basis or at all. GateField has in the past experienced
delays in obtaining wafers from its foundries, and there can be no assurance
that the company will not experience similar or more severe delays in the
future. Although GateField has supply agreements with Infineon, a shortage of
raw materials or production capacity could lead Infineon to allocate
available capacity to customers other than GateField. In addition, internal
uses within Infineon could delay manufacture of GateField products and
interrupt GateField's capability to meet its product delivery obligations.
Any inability or unwillingness of Infineon to provide adequate quantities of
finished wafers to satisfy GateField's needs in a timely manner would delay
production and product shipments and could have a material adverse effect on
GateField's business, financial condition and results of operations.
Furthermore, Infineon is in the process of being spun off from its parent
Siemens Aktiengesellschaft, there can be no assurance that the
wafer-manufacturing portion of such operations will be willing and capable of
continuing to support the manufacture of GateField's products.

RELIANCE ON ACTEL RELATIONSHIP

         In August 1998, GateField entered into a strategic relationship with
Actel Corporation. In a product marketing agreement, Actel acquired the
exclusive right to distribute GateField's standard ProASIC products based on
0.25 micron and smaller geometries. As a result, GateField terminated its entire
sales force and does not anticipate creating a new sales

                                      12
<PAGE>

force in the foreseeable future. Consequently, GateField is highly dependent
on Actel's sales efforts and the success of its sales force in marketing
GateField's 0.25-micron products.

         Actel will continue to market its own products, including products that
are competitive with GateField's products. Accordingly, there is a risk that
Actel may give higher priority to its own Actel products, thus reducing its
efforts to sell GateField's products. In addition, GateField's agreement with
Actel is terminable by Actel under a variety of circumstances, including
GateField's material breach of the product marketing agreement. As GateField
would require significant amounts of time and resources to rebuild its sales
force, reduction in sales efforts by Actel or a termination of its agreement
with GateField would have a material adverse effect on GateField's business,
financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, if Actel's sales and
marketing efforts do not achieve anticipated growth rates, GateField would be
forced to reduce the amount of product that is manufactured. As a result, the
company's profit margins on future sales of higher cost products would be
reduced because GateField may be unable to take full advantage of Infineon's
manufacturing cost reductions.

COMPETITION

         The semiconductor industry is intensely competitive and is
characterized by rapid technological change, product obsolescence, and price
erosion. The company expects competition to increase in the future. Increased
competition would likely reduce our prices. GateField's existing competitors
include suppliers of conventional gate arrays, complex programmable logic
devices (CPLDs) and FPGAs. The company's two principal competitors are Xilinx, a
supplier of FPGAs based on SRAM technology, and Altera, a supplier principally
of CPLDs. GateField also faces competition in the future from major domestic and
international semiconductor suppliers and suppliers of logic products based on
new or emerging technologies.

         The company's competitors may respond more quickly to emerging
technologies. In addition many of the company's competitors have longer
operating histories, more resources, broader customer relationships and broader
product lines. Important competitive factors in GateField's market are: price,
performance, number of usable gates, ease of use and functionality of
development system software, installed base of development systems, adaptability
of products to specific applications, length of development cycle (including
reductions to finer micron design rules), number of I/Os, reliability, adequate
wafer fabrication capacity and sources of raw materials, protection of products
by effective utilization of intellectual property laws and technical service and
support. Failure of GateField to compete successfully in any of these or other
areas could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition
and results of operations.

DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL

         GateField's success is dependent in large part on the continued service
of its key management, engineering, marketing and support employees. Competition
for qualified personnel, particularly skilled engineers, is intense in the
semiconductor industry. The loss of GateField's current key employees, or the
inability of the company to attract other qualified personnel, could have a
material adverse effect on GateField.
The company does not have employment agreements with any of its key employees.

PRICE EROSION

         The semiconductor industry is characterized by intense competition.
Historically, average selling prices in the semiconductor industry in general,
and for GateField's products in particular, have declined significantly over the
life of each product. Moreover, GateField is highly dependent on Actel for the
marketing of the company's next generation of ProASIC products. While GateField
expects that the average selling prices of its products will be reduced over
time as the company achieves manufacturing cost reductions, GateField may from
time to time be required by competitive pressures to reduce the prices of its
products more quickly than such cost reductions can be achieved. In addition,
GateField occasionally approves price reductions on specific sales to meet
competition. If these reductions are not offset by reductions in manufacturing
costs or by a shift in the mix of products sold toward higher-margin products,
declines in the average selling prices of GateField's products will reduce gross
margins and could have a material adverse effect on the company's business,
financial condition and results of operations.

                                      13

MANUFACTURING YIELDS

          The manufacture of high-performance ProASIC products is a complex
process that requires a high degree of technical skill, state-of-the-art
equipment and effective cooperation between the wafer supplier and the circuit
designer to produce acceptable yields. Minute impurities, errors in any step of
the fabrication process, defects in the masks used to print circuits on a wafer
and other factors can cause a substantial percentage of wafers to be rejected or
numerous die on each wafer to be nonfunctional. GateField has from time to time
experienced in the past, and expects that it will experience in the future,
production yield problems and delivery delays. Any prolonged inability to obtain
adequate yields or deliveries of the 0.25-micron products would adversely effect
GateField's business, financial condition and results of operations.

SEMICONDUCTOR INDUSTRY RISKS

         The semiconductor industry has historically been cyclical and
periodically subject to significant economic downturns, which are characterized
by rapid technological change, product obsolescence, diminished product demand,
accelerated price erosion and overcapacity. Currently, the semiconductor
industry is in the midst of such a downturn. These downturns often occur in
connection with, or in anticipation of, maturing product cycles (of both the
semiconductor companies and their "end customers") and declines in general
economic conditions. Some of these downturns have lasted for more than a year.
Also, during such periods, customers of semiconductor manufacturers benefiting
from shorter lead times may delay some purchases of semiconductors into future
periods.

         The current semiconductor industry downturn began in the fourth quarter
of 1995. The economic recessions in Japan and in other countries in the Asia
Pacific region have made the current downturn in the semiconductor industry
worse. The economies in these regions are contracting, and demand for
semiconductors and silicon wafers in these regions has decreased significantly.

DEPENDENCE ON DESIGN WINS

         For GateField to sell its ProASIC products to a customer, the customer
must incorporate the company's ProASIC technology into the customer's product in
the design phase. GateField is highly dependent on Actel's sales marketing and
FAE team, in conjunction with the support of GateField resources, to persuade
potential customers to incorporate the company's standard ProASIC product into
new or updated products. These efforts may precede by many months (and sometimes
a year or more) the generation of volume sales, if any, by the customer. The
value of any design win, moreover, will depend in large part upon the ultimate
success of the customer's product. No assurance can be given that GateField will
win sufficient designs or that any design win will result in significant
revenues.

         In addition, there are some costs associated with marketing the
company's licensing of its ProASIC technology for embedded applications. Such
costs would not be recovered if GateField were unable to win additional
licenses.

DEPENDENCE ON INDEPENDENT ASSEMBLY SUBCONTRACTORS

         GateField relies primarily on foreign subcontractors for the assembly
and packaging of its products and, to a lesser extent, for the testing of its
finished products. The company generally relies on a few key subcontractors to
provide particular services and has from time to time experienced difficulties
with the timeliness and quality of product deliveries. GateField has no
long-term contracts with its subcontractors, and certain of those subcontractors
are currently operating at or near full capacity. There can be no assurance that
these subcontractors will continue to be able and willing to meet GateField's
requirements for components or services. Any significant disruption in supplies
from, or degradation in the quality of components or services supplied by, these
subcontractors could delay shipments and result in the loss of customers or
revenues or otherwise have a material adverse effect on GateField's business,
financial condition and results of operations.

PATENT INFRINGEMENT

         Although GateField has obtained patents covering aspects of its ProASIC
and related technologies, no assurance

                                      14
<PAGE>

can be given that GateField's patents will be determined to be valid or that
any assertions of infringement or invalidity by other parties (or claims for
indemnity from customers resulting from any infringement claims) will not be
successful. Although the company is not currently a party to any material
litigation, the semiconductor industry is characterized by frequent claims
regarding patent and other intellectual property rights. As is typical in the
semiconductor industry, the company from time to time receives communications
from third parties asserting patents on certain of the company's
technologies. In the event any third party were to make a valid claim against
the company, the company could be required to discontinue the use of certain
processes or cease the use, import and sale of infringing products, to pay
substantial damages and to develop non-infringing technologies or to acquire
licenses to the alleged infringed technology. The company's business,
financial condition and results of operations could be materially and
adversely affected by such developments. Litigation, which could result in
substantial cost to and diversion of resources of the company, may also be
necessary to enforce patents or other intellectual property rights of the
company or to defend the company against claimed infringement of the rights
of others. The failure to obtain necessary licenses or the occurrence of
litigation relating to patent infringement or other intellectual property
matters could have a material adverse effect on the company's business,
financial condition and results of operations.

PROTECTION OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

         GateField has historically devoted significant resources to research
and development. It believes that the intellectual property derived from
research and development is a valuable asset that has been and will continue to
be important to the success of the company's business. GateField relies
primarily on a combination of nondisclosure agreements, other contractual
provisions, and patent and copyright laws to protect its proprietary rights. No
assurance can be given that the steps taken by GateField will be adequate to
protect its proprietary rights. In addition, the laws of certain territories in
which GateField's products are or may be developed, manufactured or sold,
including Asia and Europe, may not protect the company's products and
intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the United
States. Failure of GateField to enforce its patents or copyrights or to protect
its trade secrets could have a material adverse effect on the company's
business, financial condition and results of operations.

RELIANCE ON INTERNATIONAL SALES

         In the past, GateField has operated sales offices in England, Germany
and Japan. Sales from these offices were in the local currency and, therefore,
exposed the company to currency exchange fluctuations. Sales to customers
located outside the United States accounted for approximately 30% in 1998, 48%
in 1997 and 31% in 1996. Of these sales, sales to customers located in the Asia
Pacific region and Japan accounted for approximately 25%, 28% and 18% of net
revenues for 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Revenue from customers located
in the Asia Pacific region and Japan in the second quarter of 1999 and 1998 was
$92,000 and $258,000 respectively. Revenue from customers located in the Asia
Pacific region and Japan for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999 and 1998
was $361,000 and $714,000 respectively.

         GateField is in the process of closing down the operations of all of
its foreign offices and expects such closures to occur by the end of the third
quarter of 1999. GateField expects international revenues to continue to decline
each quarter from their current level.

         Although GateField is closing its foreign sales offices, it expects
that revenues derived from international sales will continue to represent a
significant portion of the company's total revenues because of its marketing
relationship with Actel. Further, such direct foreign sales are denominated in
U.S. dollars. Therefore, GateField's products become less price competitive in
countries with currencies that are declining in value against the dollar.
International sales are subject to a variety of risks, including longer payment
cycles, greater difficulty in accounts receivable collection, currency
restrictions, tariffs, trade barriers, taxes, export license requirements and
the impact of recessionary environments in economies outside the United States.

DEPENDENCE ON NEW PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT; RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE

         The market for GateField's products is characterized by rapidly
changing technology, frequent new product introductions, and declining average
selling prices over product life cycles. Thus GateField's future success is
highly dependent upon the timely completion and introduction of new products at
competitive price and performance levels,

                                      15
<PAGE>

including the timely introduction of its next generation of 0.25-micron
ProASIC products.

         In evaluating new product decisions, GateField must anticipate both the
future demand and the technology that will be available to supply such demand.
Failure to anticipate customer demand, delays in developing new products and
failure to coordinate the design and development of silicon and associated
software products each could have a material adverse effect on GateField's
business, financial condition and results of operation. No assurance can be
given that any other new products will gain market acceptance or that GateField
will respond effectively to new technological changes or new product
announcements by others. Any failure of GateField or its strategic partners to
successfully define, develop, market, manufacture, assemble or test competitive
new products could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial
condition and results of operations.

PART II.    OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 2.  CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

         On June 30, 1999 (the "Effective Time") the company effected a reverse
stock split of its outstanding common stock whereby each ten (10) shares of the
company's Common Stock, par value $0.10 per share, issued and outstanding or
held in treasury at the Effective Time were automatically and without any action
on the part of the respective holders thereof combined, converted and changed
into one (1) share of Common Stock, par value $0.10 per share, of the company
(the "Reverse Stock-Split"). No fractional shares were issued and, in lieu
thereof, any holder of less than one share of Common Stock received cash for
such holder's fractional share based on the closing price per share of the
Common Stock on the Nasdaq Unaffiliated Over the Counter Bulletin Board as of
the Effective Time of the Reverse Stock-Split.

         In May 1999 the company issued a convertible promissory note in the
aggregate principal amount of $8.0 million to one purchaser. The note is
convertible at the option of the holder into 420,000 shares of the company's
Series C-1 convertible preferred stock (the "Stock"). The Stock converts into
1,230,769 shares of the company's common stock. The sale and issuance of the
note and the securities issuable upon conversion of the note were deemed to be
exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, by virtue
of Rule 4(2) or Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

         In April 1999, in connection with its 1999 annual meeting of
stockholders (the "Annual Meeting") held on June 7, 1999 the company
requested that its stockholders vote on the following matters.

                                      16
<PAGE>

Proposal 1: To elect one Class II director to hold office until the 2002 Annual
Meeting of Stockholders pursuant to the classified board provisions of the
company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate"). In
addition, in accordance with Section 2115 of the California General Corporation
Law the company is permitting the stockholders of the company ("the
"Stockholders") to vote to elect all three current directors until the next
annual meeting. Accordingly, there will be two separate votes regarding the
election of directors.

At the Annual Meeting, the voting of stockholders with respect to Proposal 1 was
as follows:
