                             [GRAPHIC APPEARS HERE]

Narrative Description of Graphic on the Inside Front Cover

The graphic is horizontally spread across two pages joined at their longer side.
At the top of the graphic is a thin, black rectangle that spans nearly the
entire width of the graphic. At the far right end of the black rectangle is the
Company's name, "Adexa," in white letters and in the standard font. At the
bottom left corner of the graphic is the logo of the iCollaboration suite,
including the word, "iCollaboration."

The left side of the graphic contains a rectangle, shaded in yellow, and lying
so that its longer side is vertical. The yellow rectangle contains the following
text:

               "Adexa's iCollaboration suite is designed to intelligently
               automate, synchronize and optimize multi-tiered supply chain
               operations. Our software helps trading partners to dynamically
               plan and collaborate, providing: increased responsiveness to
               customers, closer coordination with suppliers, greater electronic
               exchange preparedness and enhanced supply chain efficiency."

To the right of the yellow rectangle lies a rectangle that forms the background
for the graphic. It contains a hued, gray and white Universal Transverse
Mercator (UTM) map image of the world, centered on the Western Hemisphere.
Eastern Asia and the Pacific Ocean lie in the left half of the map image.
Europe, Africa and the Atlantic Ocean lie in the right half of the image.

Overlaid on the background map are three clusters of objects, forming a large
triangle. In the top cluster, there is an office building, with the word,
"Enterprise," written below. To the left of the office building, and connected
by a solid line, is a factory with one smokestack with the word, "Suppliers,"
written below. To the right of the office building, and connected by a solid
line, is a smaller office building with the word, "Customers," written below.
Below the larger office building are, from left to right, two factories with
three smokestacks each and the word, "Plants," written below, and a warehouse
with the words, "Distribution Center," written below. All three icons are
connected to the larger office building by a solid line. Below the middle
factory with three smokestacks, and connected by solid lines, are three machine
gears with the words "Shop Floor" written below.

The following text appears to the right of the larger office building:

The second cluster is below and to the left of the top cluster, forming the
lower left point of the cluster triangle. The top cluster and the second cluster
are connected by spotlight that increases in size from the top cluster to the
second cluster. In the center of the cluster is a large factory with a gridded
globe contained inside the building. A cloud serves as a backdrop for the
factory. The words, "Private Exchange," appear below the factory. Above the
large factory are three medium-sized factories with the word, "Suppliers,"
written beneath the middle one. Above the three medium-sized factories are two
smaller factories with the words, "Suppliers' Suppliers," between them. Below
the large factory are three office towers with the words, "Customers," written
beneath the middle one. The five smaller factories and three office towers are
connected to the central, large factory by dotted lines.

The following text appears to the left of the central factory:

"iCollaboration

The third cluster is below and to the right of the top cluster, forming the
lower right point of the cluster triangle. The top cluster and the third cluster
are connected by a dotted line. In the center of the cluster is a gridded globe.
A cloud serves as a backdrop for the globe. The words, "Public Exchange," appear
below the globe. Above the globe are three medium-sized factories with the word,
"Sellers," written beneath the middle one. Above the three medium-sized
factories are two smaller factories with the words, "Sellers' Suppliers,"
written below. Below the globe are three office towers with the words, "Buyers,"
written beneath the middle one. The five smaller factories and three office
towers are connected to the central globe by dotted lines.

The following text appears to the right of the globe:
