INTERLEAF, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
          (Unaudited)

1.  Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Interleaf, Inc.
and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation. Interleaf, Inc. and its subsidiaries are
collectively referred to as the "Company."

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all financial information and
disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, these financial statements
include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary
for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods
reported and of the financial condition of the Company as of the date of the
interim balance sheet. The results of operations for interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's
audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 1998.

2.  Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Effective April 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2,
"Software Revenue Recognition" which provides guidance on applying generally
accepted accounting principles on software transactions and supersedes SOP 91-1,
"Software Revenue Recognition." The adoption of SOP 97-2 did not have a material
impact on the Company's revenue recognition policies for the quarter ended June
30, 1998.

Effective April 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." This statement established
standards for reporting comprehensive income and its components. Comprehensive
income for the period is equal to net income plus "other comprehensive income,"
which, for the Company, consists of the change in cumulative translation
adjustments during the period. Total comprehensive income for the quarter ended
June 30, 1998 was $0.3 million, which was not materially different from net
income. For the quarter ended June 30, 1997, total comprehensive income was $0.3
million, which also was not materially different from net income.

On June 15, 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities (FAS 133). FAS 133 is effective for all
fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999 (April 1, 2000
for the Company). FAS 133 requires that all derivative instruments be recorded
each period in current earnings or other comprehensive income, depending on
whether a derivative is designated as part of a hedge transaction and, if it is,
the type of hedge transaction. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of
implementing this standard.

For the three months ended June 30, 1998, potential common shares of 9,981 were
excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the Company
had a net loss applicable to common shareholders, and the effect would have been
antidilutive.

4.   Credit Agreement

     At June 30, 1998 and March 31, 1998, the Company had an equipment letter of
     credit for $0.5 and $0.6 million, respectively, which was secured by the
     equivalent amount of cash. This letter of credit expires on July 31, 1999.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
         FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
         ---------------------------------------------

Results of Operations

Overview

The Company reported net income of $0.3 million on total revenues of $11.0
million for its first quarter ended June 30, 1998. During the first quarter of
fiscal 1999, the Company recorded dividends of $0.3 million on its Senior Series
C and Senior Series D preferred stock, and a non-cash deemed dividend of $0.3
million on its Senior Series D preferred stock. Therefore, after dividends on
preferred stock, the Company's net loss applicable to common shareholders was
$0.3 million. This compares with net income of $0.4 million on total revenues of
$12.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 1998. Since there were no
dividends on preferred stock in the prior year's first quarter ending June 30,
1998, the net income applicable to common shareholders remained at $0.4 million.

The decline of $1.8 million (14%) in revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 1999
compared to the same period in fiscal 1998 was due to a decrease in product
revenue and the related impact on maintenance and service revenue. This revenue
decline has been caused by the ongoing maturation of the market for complex
authoring products and the increasing popularity of low-end versions of
Windows-based authoring software. The Company has continued its efforts to focus
on developing a new content management product family, targeted toward its
customers' extended enterprise.

Revenues

Product: Total product revenue decreased by $0.5 million (19%) in the first
quarter of fiscal 1999 as compared to the same period in fiscal 1998. Product
revenues represented 20% and 21% of total revenues in the first quarter of
fiscal 1999 and 1998, respectively. Revenue declined in all geographic regions.
The continuing trend in the reduction in product revenue is due to two factors.
The first is the decline in licensing of the Company's UNIX-based high-end
authoring products which is primarily attributable to the increasing popularity
of Windows-based publishing software. The second factor is the saturation of
UNIX-based high-end authoring software in the aerospace/defense industry, where
the Company had historically derived most of its authoring product license
revenue.

The Company is refocusing its business strategy on providing a new family of
content management products targeted toward specific vertical markets. While the
Company has built well-accepted integrated document publishing based solutions
for individual customers, it has not yet demonstrated the ability to develop,
market and sell content management products. There is no assurance that the
Company will be successful in implementing its strategy and, therefore, the
Company is unable to predict if or when product revenues will stabilize or grow.
Additionally, since the Company's services and maintenance revenue is largely
dependent on new product licenses, these revenue components have also
experienced downward pressure. This trend will continue unless product revenue
stabilizes.

Maintenance: Maintenance revenue decreased by $0.8 million (12%) in the first
quarter of fiscal 1999 compared to the same period in fiscal 1998. Maintenance
revenues comprised 53% and 52% of total revenues in the first quarter of fiscal
1999 and 1998, respectively. Revenue declined in all geographic regions. Future
maintenance revenue is dependent on the Company's ability to maintain its
existing 



                                      8
<PAGE>


customer base and to increase maintenance contract volume related to the new
content management products. This will be necessary to offset the general
downward pricing pressure on maintenance in the software industry and a
reduction in customers' perceived value of maintenance services.

Services: Services revenue, consisting of consulting and customer training
revenue, decreased by $0.5 million (15%) in the first quarter of fiscal 1999
compared to the same period in fiscal 1998. Services revenue represented 27% of
total revenues in the first quarter of both fiscal 1999 and 1998. Revenue
declined in all geographic regions. Future services revenue is dependent on the
Company's ability to maintain its existing customer base and to increase
consulting and training contracts based on the introduction and success of new
products.

Fiscal 1999: During fiscal 1999, the Company plans to develop and release
several upgrades to its traditional products. The Company also plans to develop
product offerings which address at least two vertical segments of the content
management market. Growth in revenues during fiscal 1999 and fiscal 2000 will be
largely dependent on the introduction and customer acceptance of the new and
enhanced software products planned to be released in fiscal 1999 and the
following year, and the Company's success in leveraging software products with
services to provide content management solutions to its customers, improving
sales force productivity and the effectiveness of the Company's investment in
marketing and lead generation programs. If the Company is unable to grow or
stabilize its revenues in fiscal 1999, further expense reductions will be
necessary in order to sustain profitable operations.

Costs of Revenues

Cost of product revenues includes amortization of capitalized software
development costs, product media, documentation materials, packaging and
shipping costs, and royalties paid for licensed technology. Cost of product
revenues decreased by $0.1 million (13%) compared to the same period in fiscal
1998. Cost of product revenues as a percentage of product revenues was 29%
compared to 27% for the same period in fiscal 1998. The cost of maintenance
revenue declined by $0.1 million (13%) compared to the same period in fiscal
1998. Cost of maintenance revenues as a percentage of maintenance revenues was
14% for the first quarter of both fiscal 1999 and 1998. The cost of services
revenue declined by $0.1 million (5%) for the first quarter compared to the same
period in fiscal 1998. Cost of services revenue as a percentage of services
revenue was 92% for the first quarter compared to 83% for the same period in
fiscal 1998. The decline in the costs of revenues was impacted by the
year-to-year decline in product and services revenues.

Operating Expenses

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses decreased by $0.6 million
(11%) for the first quarter compared to the same period in fiscal 1998. The
decline was primarily due to continued focus on stringent cost controls by
management.

Research and Development ("R&D") expenses consist primarily of personnel and
related overhead expenses to support product development. R&D expenses decreased
by $0.7 million (28%) for the first quarter compared to the same period in
fiscal 1998. Much of the decline was caused by a reduction in facility costs
when the R&D employees moved to less expensive facilities. No software
development costs were capitalized in the first quarter of fiscal 1999 or in the
first quarter of fiscal 1998.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company had approximately $23.5 million of cash and cash equivalents at June
30, 1998, an increase of $2.4 million from March 31, 1998. The net increase was
the result of cash provided by operations, primarily from collections of
accounts receivable, partially offset by reductions in unearned revenue, other
liabilities, and accounts payable and accrued expenses. At June 30, 1998 and
March 31, 



                                       9
<PAGE>


1998, the Company had approximately $1.0 million of cash restricted for
potential payment of a withholding tax assessment on its German subsidiary
related to payments remitted to the United States from Germany in 1990. The
Company is appealing this assessment. The Company believes its current cash
balances and cash generated from operations, offset by restructuring payments,
will be sufficient to meet the Company's liquidity needs for fiscal 1999.

Year 2000

The Company has undertaken a comprehensive evaluation of its internal
information systems in order to evaluate those modifications which will be
required in order to address Year 2000 functionality and other operational
deficiencies. This review is substantially complete, and the Company has
estimated that the cost or risk which may be associated with its Year 2000 or
other internal operational issues is not material. The Company expects to
upgrade certain hardware and software during fiscal year 1999 in order to become
compliant. The estimated cost of these upgrades is less than $0.5 million.

The Company has undertaken a systematic review and planning process concerning
the requirements and abilities of its standard products (including embedded
third party products) to handle date information and to function appropriately
from and after January 1, 2000. The Company intends to discontinue its support
of certain products which it considers obsolete without regard to Year 2000
concerns. Although the Company believes that the effort required to adapt its
supported standard products to the Year 2000 will not have a materially adverse
impact on the Company's financial performance, currently unforeseen
difficulties, delays or requirements could cause this assessment to change. Many
of the Company's customers have implemented custom applications which rely on
the Company's standard products to operate, and the Company does not believe
that it has the obligation to modify those applications for the Year 2000. It is
possible that unforeseen liabilities may arise with respect to discontinued
products or custom applications.
