UNIFY CORPORATION  NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Unify Corporation ("the Company") pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). While the interim financial information contained in this filing is unaudited, such financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments) which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto, together with Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations, which are included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2001 and the amended Annual Report on
Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended April 30 2000 as filed with the SEC.

Reclassifications

Certain items in the fiscal 2000 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the fiscal 2001 presentation. These reclassifications
had no effect on net loss or stockholders' equity (deficit).

2. Results of Operation and Management's Plan

The accompanying condensed consolidated 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 accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the six month period ended October 31, 2000, the
Company incurred a net loss of $8,224,000 and has an accumulated deficit of $55,327,000. For the year ended April 30, 2001, the Company incurred a net loss of $12,331,000 and has an accumulated
deficit of $59,434,000 as of April 30, 2001. The Company
experienced a decline in revenues and incurred significant special charges as a result of the Audit Committee's investigation, discussed in Note 6, and may continue to incur significant
expenses in defense of the litigation. These factors indicate that the Company may potentially be unable to continue as a going concern.

The
condensed consolidated 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
continue to generate sufficient cash flows to meet its obligations on a timely basis, the ability to continue to work with key vendors to accept payment terms for certain payables, to obtain
additional financing or refinancing as may be required, and ultimately to return to profitability and significant positive cash flows. Management has realigned the Company's operations including a
reduction of its workforce during the second quarter of fiscal 2001. Management plans to grow revenues, increase the investment in marketing while aggressively controlling costs, and seek additional
financing that is acceptable to the Company. There is no assurance that management's plans will be successful or if successful, that they will result in the Company continuing as a going concern.

3. Acquisitions and Divestitures

In June 2000, the Company acquired privately-held Unify InterAmerica, the Company's master distributor in Latin America. The acquisition was
in support of Unify's strategy to rapidly expand into

the growing Latin America e-commerce market. After review of this strategy by the Company's new management, the Company determined Latin America was currently not a strategic market. In
September 2000, the original stockholders agreed to repurchase Unify InterAmerica, which resulted in the Company recording a loss of approximately $400,000.

4. Other investments

its common stock with a value of $2.8 million to Evergreen as partial payment. On August 1, 2000, the Company paid $2.2 million in cash to Evergreen.

5. Note Payable to Minority Interest Stockholders

In September 1995, Unify Japan entered into a 100 million yen loan agreement with a bank affiliated with Sumitomo Metals Industries, Ltd.
("SMI"). The loan bears interest at the Tokyo International Bank Offered Rate ("TIBOR") plus 50 basis points (approximately 1% at October 31, 2000), and is secured by the assets of Unify Japan.
In September 2000, this loan was extended for an additional year with a guarantee letter from SMI. The balance of the loan was 60 million yen at October 31, 2000.

6. Earnings Per Share

SFAS No. 128,Earnings Per Share,requires a dual presentation of basic and diluted income (loss) per
share ("EPS"). Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average of common shares outstanding for the period.
Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock (e.g. convertible preferred stock, warrants, and common stock options) were
exercised or converted into common stock. Potential common shares in the diluted EPS computation are excluded for fiscal years 2001 and 2000 as their effect would be antidilutive. The following is a

In July 2000, the Company announced that certain matters had come to the attention of the Company's Board of Directors that indicated that the Company
had engaged in improper accounting practices. Accordingly, the Board of Directors authorized its Audit Committee to conduct an investigation of the Company's accounting and financial reporting
practices and to recommend remedial action, if any. As a result of this financial reporting investigation, the Company incurred additional costs related to the investigation itself, legal expenses and
additional auditing costs for the three and six month periods ended October 31, 2000 of $2,168,000 and $2,538,000 respectively. As of April 30, 2001 the Company had incurred total
charges of $3,356,000.

Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and any Current Reports on Form 8-K.

The
following discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q and with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto, together with Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations, which are included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2001 and Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year
ended April 30, 2000 as filed with the SEC.

Results of Operations

In July 2000, the Company announced that certain matters had come to the attention of the Company's Board of Directors that indicated that the Company
had engaged in improper accounting practices. Accordingly, the Board of Directors authorized its Audit Committee to conduct an investigation of the Company's accounting and financial reporting
practices and to recommend remedial action, if any. In July 2000, in connection with the ongoing investigation, the Company placed its former chief executive officer and its former chief
financial officer on administrative leave, and in November 2000, the Company terminated its former chief executive officer and its former chief financial officer resigned. As a result of this
financial reporting investigation, the Company incurred significant costs related to the investigation itself, legal expenses and additional auditing costs. Prior to the investigation, the majority of
the U.S. based sales team resigned or were terminated which had a significant negative impact on the Company's revenues in the first and second quarters of fiscal 2001.

The
Company develops, markets and supports database and application development and deployment software and services. Unify's products ensure companies are able to better compete by
enabling them to quickly and cost-effectively implement successful business solutions. Whether a company is developing database, client/server or e-commerce applications, or
just wants to take existing applications to the Web, Unify's products and services help companies solve some of their biggest IT challenges. Unify's software addresses these challenges by increasing
developer productivity and by allowing customers to deliver applications with a low total cost of ownership in the application product life cycle.

Revenues

Total revenue for the three months ended October 31, 2000 decreased $2.2 million (38%) to $3.6 million from $5.8 million for the three
months ended October 31, 1999. Total revenue for the six months ended October 31, 2000 decreased $4.8 million (43%) to $6.4 million from $11.2 for the six months ended
October 31, 1999.

9

---

Software license revenues represented the majority of the decrease in total revenues with a 50% decrease for the three months ended October 31, 2000 and a 51% decrease for the
six months ended October 31, 2000 as compared to the same periods in the prior fiscal year. The decrease during the first three and six months of fiscal 2001 was primarily due to the
resignation or termination of a majority of the U.S. sales team, the distractions caused by the Audit Committee's investigation and customer concerns over the Company's financial reporting issues that
were announced in July 2000.

Total
service revenue for the second quarter ended October 31, 2000 decreased $0.4 million (19%) to $1.7 million from $2.1 for the same quarter in fiscal 2000.
Total service revenue for the six months ended October 31, 2000 decreased $1.3 million (30%) to $3.1 million from $4.4 for the six months ended October 31, 1999. The
maintenance revenues portion decreased for the three and six months period by 6% and 13% from the prior comparative periods. This reduction in maintenance revenues was reflected in the decrease in
initial maintenance orders in conjunction with the reductions of product sales.

International
revenues include all software license and service revenues from customers located outside the United States. International revenues from the Company's direct sales
organizations in Europe and Japan and from value added resellers, distributors, and other partners in all international locations accounted for 44% and 51% of total revenues in the quarters ended
October 31, 2000 and 1999 respectively, and 49% and 55% for the comparative six months period ended October 31, 2000 and 1999.

Cost of Revenues

Total cost of revenue for the second quarter ended October 31, 2000 decreased $0.5 million (38%) over the cost reported during the second quarter
ended October 31, 1999. Total cost of revenue for the six months ended October 31, 2000 decreased $0.5 million (19%) when compared to the same period in the prior year. The
decrease in cost of revenues was primarily in cost of services for the three month period ended October 31, 2000.

Cost
of software licenses represented 6% of software license revenues for the three months ended October 31, 2000 and 9% of software licenses for the six months ended
October 31, 2000 and were comparable to cost of software licenses to software license revenues in the same periods of the prior year.

Cost
of services consists primarily of employee, facilities and travel costs incurred in providing customer support under software maintenance contracts and consulting and training
services. Cost of services for the three and six months ended October 31, 2000 decreased 39% and 16% compared to the same periods of the prior year. The decrease was primarily the result of
staff reductions initiated during the three month period ended October 31, 2000. The cost of service has a high component of fixed costs, and therefore does not fluctuate as readily with the
changes in revenues, however, when cost reductions are implemented they tend to have an incremental effect on total costs.

Product Development

Product development expenses consist primarily of employee and facilities costs incurred in the development and testing of new products and in the porting of
new and existing products to additional hardware platforms and operating systems. Product development expenses for the quarters ended October 31, 2000 and 1999 were comparable at
$1.6 million and $1.7 million, respectively. Product development expenses for the six months ended October 31, 2000 and 1999 were also stable at approximately $3.2 million
and $3.3 million. During the first and second quarters of fiscal 2001, as a result of the distractions caused by the investigation, the Company put on hold the development of additional new
product lines while maintaining the resources required to maintain and support its current product lines. The Company believes that a substantial investment in product development is

10

---

critical to maintaining technological leadership and therefore intends to continue to devote significant resources to product development.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the quarter ended October 31, 2000 decreased to $3.2 million, or 89% of total revenues,
as compared to $4.1 million, or 70% of total revenues, for the same quarter of the prior year. SG&A expenses for the six months ended October 31, 2000 decreased to $6.4 million,
or 100% of total revenues, as compared to $9.0 million, or 80% of total revenues, for the same period of the prior year. The major components of SG&A for the second quarter of fiscal 2001 were
sales expenses of $1.7 million, marketing expenses of $0.5 million, general and administrative of $0.9 million and bad debt expenses of $0.1 million. Sales expenses,
salaries and commissions, decreased $0.5 million when compared to the same quarter of the prior fiscal year, as a result of the resignation or termination of a large portion of the U.S. based
sales team during the first quarter of fiscal 2001, and the decrease in commissions as a result of declining sales during the second quarter of fiscal 2001. Marketing expenses also decreased by
$0.2 million during the same three month period. General and administrative expenses increased by $0.1 million for the second three months of fiscal 2001 compared to the comparable
period for the prior year, primarily as a result of the normal operation of the Company and the quarter to quarter fluctuations that occurs throughout the year. As a result of management's continuing
evaluation, the performance and quality of its outstanding receivables has improved, which resulted in a decrease in bad debt expenses of $0.4 million during the three months ended
October 31, 2000 as compared to the comparable period for the prior fiscal year.

On
a year to date basis for the six months ended October 31, 2000 sales expenses, salaries and commissions, decreased $0.9 million as the result of the resignation or
termination of a large portion of the U.S. based sales team during the first quarter of fiscal 2001, and the decrease in commissions as a result of declining sales during the first and second quarters
of fiscal 2001. Marketing expense also decreased by $0.4 million during the same comparative quarters. General and administrative expenses decreased $0.4 million primarily as a
result of reduced spending during the first quarter of fiscal 2001. As a result of management's continuing evaluation of its outstanding receivables, bad debt expenses decreased by $0.8 million
when compared to the same six months period for fiscal 2000. The Company expects that total SG&A expenses may fluctuate from quarter to quarter primarily because of variability in marketing program
spending and sales commission expense.

Special Charges

In July 2000, Company announced that certain matters had come to the attention of the Company's Board of Directors that indicated that the Company had
engaged in improper accounting practices. Accordingly, the Board of Directors authorized its Audit Committee to conduct an investigation of the Company's accounting and financial reporting practices
and to recommend remedial action, if any. As a result of this financial reporting investigation, the company incurred additional costs related to the investigation itself, legal expenses and
additional auditing costs for the three and six month periods ended October 31, 2000 of $2,168,000 and $2,538,000 respectively.

Provision for Income Taxes

The Company recorded tax provisions for the three and six month periods ended October 31, 2000 and 1999 related primarily to foreign income taxes and
withholding taxes on software license royalties paid to the Company by certain foreign licensees. For the same periods, the Company recorded no significant federal or state income tax provisions as
the Company had substantial net operating loss carryforwards.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At October 31, 2000, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and investments of $2.2 million, compared to $11.2 million at April 30,
2000. Working capital decreased to negative $4.2 million at October 31, 2000 from $5.8 million at April 30, 2000.

The
accompanying condensed consolidated 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 accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the six month period ended October 31, 2000, the Company incurred a
net loss of $8,224,000 and had an accumulated deficit of $55,327,000. For the year ended April 30, 2001, the Company incurred a net loss of $12,331,000, and has an accumulated deficit of
$59,434,000 as of April 30, 2001. Additionally, the Company has experienced a decline in revenues and, as a result of the Audit Committee's investigation and shareholder litigation, has
incurred and may continue to incur a significant increase in expenses. The Company believes that it will need additional financing to meet cash requirements for its operation, and the availability of
such financing on terms acceptable to the Company is uncertain. These factors indicate that the Company may potentially be unable to continue as a going concern.

The
condensed consolidated 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
continue to generate sufficient cash flows to meet its obligations on a timely basis, the ability to continue to work with key vendors to accept payment terms for certain payables, to obtain
additional financing or refinancing as may be required, and ultimately to return to profitability and significant positive cash flows. Management has realigned the Company's operations including a
reduction of its workforce during the second quarter of fiscal 2001. Management plans to grow revenues, increase the investment in marketing, while aggressively controlling costs, and seek additional
financing that is acceptable to the Company. There is no assurance that management's plans will be successful or if successful, that they will result in the Company continuing as a going concern. The
Company's ability to obtain additional financing on acceptable terms may be adversely affected by the delisting of the Company's Common Stock from the NASDAQ National Market. If adequate funds are not
available to satisfy the Company's short-term or long-term capital requirements, the Company may be required to significantly

12

---

reduce its operations. Additionally, the sale of additional equity or other securities will result in dilution of the Company's stockholders.

The
Company's operating activities resulted in a decrease in cash of $6.8 million during the six months ended October 31, 2000, primarily as a result of a net loss of
$8.2 million and a decrease in deferred revenues of $0.8 million reduced by $1.1 million in decreases in accounts receivables, depreciation expense of $0.4 million and
increases in accounts payable and accrued compensation expenses of $0.6 million. Investing activities during the period increased cash by $0.8 million. The increase in cash from
investing activities consisting principally of the sale of available for sale securities of $3.7 million of which $2.2 million was used for the additional investment in Evergreen
Internet Inc. Additional funds used in investing activities included approximately $0.4 million for the purchase of equipment, consisting primarily of tenant improvements on the
Company's new headquarters and $0.2 million in the acquisition of other assets. Cash provided by financing activities during the period was $0.6 million, which represents the issuance of
common stock under the Company's stock option and stock purchase plan of $0.5 million and an increase in amounts due minority interest stockholders of $0.1 million.

Volatility of Stock Price and General Risk Factors Affecting Quarterly Results

The Company's common stock price has been and is likely to continue to be subject to significant volatility. A variety of factors could cause the price of the
Company's common stock to fluctuate, perhaps substantially, including: announcements of developments related to the Company's business; fluctuations in the Company's or its competitors' operating
results and order levels; general conditions in the computer industry or the worldwide economy; announcements of technological innovations; new products or product enhancements by the Company or its
competitors; changes in financial estimates by securities analysts; developments in patent, copyright or other intellectual property rights; and
developments in the Company's relationships with its customers, distributors and suppliers; legal proceedings brought against the Company or its officers; and significant changes in the Company'
senior management team. In addition, in recent years the stock market in general, and the market for shares of equity securities of many high technology companies in particular, has experienced
extreme price fluctuations which have often been unrelated to the operating performance of those companies. Such fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of the Company's common stock.

The
Company's quarterly operating results have varied significantly in the past, and the Company expects that its operating results are likely to vary significantly from time to time
in the future. Such variations result from, among other factors, the following: the size and timing of significant orders and their fulfillment; demand for the Company's products; the number, timing
and significance of product enhancements and new product announcements by the Company and its competitors; ability of the Company to attract and retain key employees; seasonality; changes in pricing
policies by the Company or its competitors; realignments of the Company's organizational structure; changes in the level of the Company's operating expenses; changes in the Company's sales incentive
plans; budgeting cycles of the Company's customers; customer order deferrals in anticipation of enhancements or new products offered by the Company or its competitors; product life cycles; product
defects and other product quality problems currency fluctuations; and general domestic and international economic and political conditions.

Due
to the foregoing factors, quarterly revenues and operating results are difficult to forecast. Revenues are also difficult to forecast because the market for Internet and
e-commerce application development software is rapidly evolving, and the Company's sales cycle, from initial evaluation to purchase and the provision of maintenance services, is lengthy
and varies substantially from customer to customer. Because the Company normally ships products within a short time after it receives an order, it typically does not have any material backlog. As a
result, to achieve its quarterly revenue objectives, the Company is dependent upon obtaining orders in any given quarter for shipment in that quarter.

Furthermore, because many customers place orders toward the end of a fiscal quarter, the Company generally recognizes a substantial portion of its revenues at the end of a quarter. As the Company's
expense levels are based in significant part on the Company's expectations as to future revenues and are therefore relatively fixed in the short term, if revenue levels fall below expectations
operating results are likely to be disproportionately adversely affected. The Company also expects that its operating results will be affected by seasonal trends, and also anticipates that it may
experience relatively weaker demand in fiscal quarters ending July 31 and October 31 as a result of reduced business activity in Europe during the summer months.

Item 3. Disclosures about Market Rate Risk

Interest Rate Risk.The Company's exposure to market rate risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to its
investment portfolio, which consists of cash equivalents and investments. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and are stated at cost. Cash
equivalents are generally maintained in money market accounts which have as their objective preservation of principal and which hold investments with maturity dates of less than 90 days. The
Company does not believe its exposure to interest rate risk is material for these balances, which totaled $2.0 million at October 31, 2000. The securities in the Company's investment
portfolio are generally classified as available-for-sale and, consequently, are recorded on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value with unrealized gains or losses
reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity. Investments totaled $0.1 million at October 31, 2000 and there were no material realized or unrealized gains or losses on
short-term investments during the first six months of fiscal 2001. Unify does not use derivative financial instruments in its short-term investment portfolio, places its
investments with high quality issuers and, by policy, limits the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer. The Company is adverse to principal loss and attempts to ensure the safety of its invested
funds by limiting default. The Company's investments at October 31, 2000 consisted of $0.1 million in high quality corporate bonds maturing within one year, which the Company does not
believe carry any material interest rate exposure. If market interest rates were to change immediately and uniformly by ten percent from levels at October 31, 2000, the fair value of the
Company's cash equivalents and investments would change by an insignificant amount.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk.As a global concern, the Company faces exposure to adverse movements in foreign
currency exchange rates. These exposures may change over time as business practices evolve and could have a material adverse impact on the Company's business, operating results and financial position.
Historically, the Company's primary exposures have related to local currency denominated sales and expenses in Europe, Japan and Australia. Due to the substantial volatility of currency exchange
rates, among other factors, the Company cannot predict the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on its future operating results. The Company also has currency exchange rate exposures on intercompany
accounts receivable owed to the Company as a result of local currency sales of software licenses by the Company's international subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, France and Japan. At
October 31, 2000, the Company had $0.1 million, $0.0 million and $1.1 million in such receivables denominated in British pounds, French francs and Japanese yen,
respectively. The Company encourages prompt payment of these intercompany balances in order to minimize its exposure to currency fluctuations, but it engages in no hedging activities to reduce the
risk of such fluctuations. A hypothetical ten percent change in foreign currency rates would have an insignificant impact on the Company's business, operating results and financial position. The
Company has not experienced material exchange losses on intercompany balances in the past; however, due to the substantial volatility of currency exchange rates, among other factors, it cannot predict
the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on its future business, operating results and financial position.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Pending Litigation

Beginning on July 1, 2000 and through October 2000, a series of class action complaints were filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern
District of California, against Unify and certain of its directors and former officers. The plaintiffs in each of these actions claim to be suing on behalf of a class of persons who purchased the
Company's Common Stock during periods specified in the complaint. These actions have been consolidated and the court has selected lead plaintiffs' counsel. In April 2001, the United States
district court stayed the consolidated actions, pursuant to the stipulation of the parties, until June 2001, to give the parties an opportunity to mediate the dispute in conjunction with other
litigation discussed below.

From
August through October 2000, five shareholder derivative actions were filed; four in the Superior Court of the State of California and one in the U.S. District Court for
the Northern District of California. The plaintiffs in these actions each claims to be suing on behalf of the Company. These actions name as defendants certain of the Company's present and former
officers and directors. The complaints allege substantially the same conduct, and concern the same time period, as the shareholder class actions filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern
District of California. The complaints allege that, as a result of this conduct, certain of the present and former officers and directors breached their fiduciary duties to Unify and engaged in
improper insider trading. The complaints seek an unspecified amount in damages and injunctive relief. The action pending in U.S. District court has been voluntarily stayed by the parties pending
resolution of the derivative actions in state court. The parties to the derivative actions in state court have agreed to attempt to mediate the derivative actions in conjunction with the federal class
actions discussed above.

In
February and April 2001, two alleged institutional investors filed actions in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California against the Company and its former
chief executive officer and former chief financial officer alleging violations of federal securities laws. The complaint alleges the same conduct and concerns generally the same time period as that
alleged in the shareholder class actions discussed above. The Company intends to seek mediation of these disputes with the other pending litigation arising from the same alleged facts and
circumstances.

In
June 2001, the Company participated in a day long mediation of the litigation discussed above. While the matters were not resolved during that day, the mediator is
continuing in his mediation efforts with the encouragement of the Company and it remains the goal of the Company to resolve all of the litigation. In July 2001, the Company determined that a
global settlement was likely and the estimated costs to settle such lawsuits have been accrued as of April 30, 2001. However, there can be no assurance that the proposed global settlement will
be approved by federal and state courts or that such
complaints discussed above will be resolved without costly litigation, or in a manner that is not adverse to the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The
Company has become aware that the SEC and the Department of Justice are conducting investigations into the facts and circumstances surrounding the Company's restatement of its
quarterly financial statements and other matters. The Company is fully cooperating with the investigations.

Item 5. Other Information

Adverse Effects of the Uncertainty About the Company's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern and Pending Litigation

The matters raising doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern as discussed in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial
statements and Item 2, and the pending

litigation discussed above, may have an adverse effect on the Company's future sales and its ability to attract and retain qualified personnel. The Company's products are typically used to develop
applications that are critical to a customer's business, and the purchase of the Company's products is often part of a customer's larger business process re-engineering initiative or
implementation of enterprise network or Internet computing. Customers may be unwilling to build their computing environment around the Company's products, or devote the time and resources necessary to
install and configure such products because there is doubt about the Company's ability to continue supporting its products in the future. Moreover, the Company may encounter increasing employee
turnover as a result of the Company's current circumstances.
