PEREGRINE SYSTEMS, INC.        NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.     Company Operations

Business

Peregrine Systems, Inc. (the Company or Peregrine) is a global provider of enterprise software. Peregrine's core business is providing information
technology asset and service management software solutions that are designed to enable organizations in the private and public sectors to increase productivity, reduce costs and accelerate a return on
investment by managing portfolios of information technology assets and streamlining service management operations.

From
the Company's initial public offering in 1997 through the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002, Peregrine significantly expanded its product lines through a series of
acquisitions, broadening its business beyond its original core market. The Company began a major restructuring in 2002 amid concerns about liquidity. The non-core Supply Chain Enablement
(SCE, comprising Harbinger and Extricity) and Remedy businesses were sold in June 2002 and November 2002, respectively, and are treated as discontinued operations in the consolidated
financial statements. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2003, Peregrine sold other non-core product lines, including products used in fleet management, facility management,
telecommunications management, and travel management. Peregrine's core software product suites, after divestiture of non-core products, are AssetCenter® and
ServiceCenter®. AssetCenter and ServiceCenter support two main business processes: asset management and service management. Typically, the assets managed with Peregrine's products consist
of information technology assets, such as computer and computer-networking hardware and software items, and other assets used to provide infrastructure to a business. The services managed with
Peregrine's products usually consist
of the service delivery and support processes necessary to troubleshoot, support and maintain those same information technology and infrastructure assets.

Bankruptcy Proceedings and Restructuring Activities

On September 22, 2002, Peregrine and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Peregrine Remedy, Inc. (Remedy), filed voluntary petitions under Chapter 11
of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The plan of reorganization of the Company (the Reorganization Plan) was confirmed by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the Bankruptcy Court) on
July 18, 2003 and it became effective on August 7, 2003. From September 22, 2002 until August 7, 2003, the Company operated the business as a
Debtor-in-Possession under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court.

As
a result of its bankruptcy filing under Chapter 11, the Company was subject to the provisions of American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position
No. 90-7, "Financial Reporting of Entities in Reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code" (SOP 90-7), for the reporting periods subsequent to September 22,
2002 through July 18, 2003. Pursuant to SOP 90-7, revenue, expenses (including professional fees), realized gains and losses, and provisions for losses resulting from the
reorganization of the business are reported separately as reorganization items.

For
detailed information on the Company's bankruptcy proceedings and restructuring activities, please review the information contained in Note 2 of the Company's consolidated
financial statements contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended March 31, 2004, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on
December 20, 2004.

Fresh-Start Reporting

In accordance with SOP 90-7, the Company adopted fresh-start reporting as of July 18, 2003 as the Company's emergence from
Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings resulted in a new reporting basis.

7

---



Under
fresh-start reporting, the reorganization value of the entity is allocated to the entity's assets, based on fair values, and liabilities are stated at the present value of amounts to be paid,
determined at current interest rates. The effective date of the new entity was considered to be the close of business on July 18, 2003 for financial reporting purposes. The fiscal periods prior
to and including July 18, 2003 pertain to what is designated the "Predecessor Company," while the fiscal periods subsequent to July 18, 2003 pertain to what is designated the "Successor
Company." Where a financial statement item applies to both the Successor and Predecessor Companies, we refer to the Company. As a result of the implementation of fresh-start reporting, the financial
statements of the Successor Company after July 18, 2003 are not comparable to the Predecessor Company's financial statements for prior periods and are separated by a black line to highlight
this lack of comparability.

2.     Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared, without audit, in accordance with the instructions to
Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not necessarily include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's consolidated financial position, results of
operations and cash flows in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

In
the opinion of the Company's management, the unaudited financial information for the interim periods presented reflects all normal recurring adjustments, discontinued operations and
fresh-start adjustments that the Company considers necessary to give a fair presentation. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended March 31, 2004. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of operating results for an entire fiscal year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires the Company to make estimates and
assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses for the reporting
periods. Actual results could differ from the estimates made by management with respect to these items and other items that require management's estimates. These estimates and assumptions include, but
are not limited to, assessing the following: the recoverability of accounts receivable, goodwill and other intangible assets, software development costs and deferred tax assets; the determination of
the worldwide income tax provision and associated liabilities; and the determination of whether fees invoiced for license transactions are fixed or determinable and whether collection of the
associated receivable is probable.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Position No. 97-2, "Software Revenue Recognition," as amended
by SOP 98-4 and SOP 98-9 (SOP 97-2), and Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements," as amended by
SAB 104, issued by the SEC. Peregrine's revenue is derived principally from software product licensing and related services. The Company's standard end-user license agreement
provides for an initial fee for product use in perpetuity. License fees are generally due upon the granting of the license. Maintenance

revenue
consists of fees for technical support and software updates. Consulting and training revenue consists of fees earned for professional services provided to customers primarily on a time and
material basis.

Revenue
from license agreements with direct customers is recognized when all of the following conditions are met: a non-cancelable license agreement has been signed; the
product has been delivered; there are no material uncertainties regarding customer acceptance; the fee is fixed or determinable; collection of the resulting receivable is deemed probable; risk of
concession is deemed remote; and no other significant obligations of the Company to the customer exist. In certain circumstances, the Company may grant extended payment terms. If a payment is due more
than ninety days after the license agreement is signed, the license fees are recognized as payments become due and payable provided all other conditions for revenue recognition are met. If provided in
a license agreement, acceptance provisions generally grant customers a right of refund only if the licensed software does not perform in accordance with its published specifications. The Company
believes the likelihood of non-acceptance in these situations is remote and generally recognizes
revenue when all other criteria of revenue recognition are met. If the likelihood of non-acceptance cannot be determined to be remote, revenue is recognized upon the earlier of receipt of
written acceptance or when the acceptance period has lapsed.

Revenue
from maintenance services is recognized ratably over the term of the support period, generally one year. Consulting revenue is primarily related to installation and
implementation services for the Company's software products, which are most often performed on a time and material basis under separate service agreements. Consulting services are not usually
essential to the functionality of the software. Revenue from consulting and training services is recognized as the respective services are performed.

For
contracts with multiple obligations (e.g., current and future product delivery obligations, post-contract support or other services) the Company recognizes revenue using
the residual method. Under the residual method, the Company allocates revenue to the undelivered elements of the contract based on vendor-specific objective evidence of their fair value. This
objective evidence is the sales price of each element when sold separately or the annual renewal rate specified in the agreement for maintenance. The Company recognizes revenue allocated to
undelivered products when all other criteria for revenue recognition have been met.

The
Company also derives revenue from the sale of its software licenses and maintenance services through distributors. Revenue from sales made through distributors is recognized when the
distributors have sold the software licenses or services to their customers and the criteria for revenue recognition under SOP 97-2 are met. Revenue from maintenance services sold
through distributors is recognized ratably over the contractual period with the end user.

Marketable Securities

Marketable securities are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in a
separate component of stockholders' equity. Management determines the appropriate classification of marketable debt and equity securities at the time of purchase, and reevaluates this designation at
each balance sheet date. The cost of investments sold is based on the specific identification method. For individual securities classified as available-for-sale the Company
determines whether a decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis is other than

temporary.
If the decline in fair value is judged to be other than temporary, the cost basis of the individual security is written down to fair value as a new cost basis and the amount of the
write-down is included in earnings. The new cost basis is not changed for subsequent recoveries in fair value. Subsequent increases in the fair value of
available-for-sale securities are included in other comprehensive income; subsequent decreases in fair value, if not an other-than-temporary impairment,
are also included in other comprehensive income.

Computation of Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Computation of net income (loss) per share is performed in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings
per Share" (SFAS 128). SFAS 128 requires the Company to compute basic and diluted earnings per share data for all periods for which an income statement is presented. Basic earnings
(loss) per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive securities represent incremental shares
issuable upon exercise of the Company's equity and debt securities under the treasury stock method or the if-converted method.

For
the three and six months ended September 30, 2004, the Successor Company's diluted net loss per share excludes the effect of approximately 0.4 million shares and
0.3 million shares, respectively, issuable under employee stock options, because the options are anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method, as their exercise prices were greater
than the average market price of the Company's common stock for those periods. In addition, the Successor Company's diluted net loss per share for the three and six months ended September 30,
2004 excludes the effects of approximately 0.1 million and 0.1 million potentially dilutive shares, respectively, issuable under employee stock options, as such options would be
anti-dilutive given the Company's net loss for such periods.

For
the 74 days ended September 30, 2003, the Successor Company's diluted net loss per share excludes the effect of approximately 0.3 million shares issuable under
employee stock options, because the options are anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method, as their exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the Company's common
stock for the period. In addition, the Successor Company's diluted net loss per share for the 74 days ended September 30, 2003 excludes the effects of approximately 0.1 million
potentially dilutive shares, issuable under employee stock options, as such options would be anti-dilutive given the Company's net loss for such period.

For
the 18 days ended July 18, 2003 the Predecessor Company's diluted income per share excludes the effect of approximately 0.5 million shares, issuable under
employee stock options, as inclusion would be anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method, as their exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the Company's common
stock for the period. For the 109 days ended July 18, 2003, the Predecessor Company's diluted income per share from continuing operations and net income exclude the effect of
approximately 12.4 million shares, issuable under employee stock options, as inclusion would be anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method, as their exercise prices were greater
than the average market price of the Company's common stock for the period.

Recapitalization

Pursuant to the Reorganization Plan, the Company was recapitalized effective August 7, 2003. In accordance with the Reorganization Plan, 15 million
new shares were issued and 2.65 million shares were reserved for issuance under stock option plans. Based on a settlement reached in November 2003, holders of the Predecessor Company's
common stock received 4,016,250 new shares, or one share of the Successor Company's common stock for every 48.7548 shares of the Predecessor Company's common stock held. Historical shares and
per-share amounts of the Predecessor Company have not been restated to reflect this recapitalization because the Successor Company is considered a new reporting entity.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company applies the intrinsic value-based method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees," (APB 25), and related interpretations, including Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving
Stock Compensation: An Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25," to account for its fixed stock option plans. Under this method, deferred compensation is recorded on the date of grant only if the
current market price of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" (SFAS 123),
established accounting and disclosure requirements using a fair-value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation plans. As allowed by SFAS 123, the Company has
elected to continue to apply the intrinsic value-based method of accounting described above, and has adopted the disclosure requirements of Statement of Accounting Standards No. 148,
"Accounting for Stock-Based CompensationTransition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123."

The
following tables illustrate the effect on net (loss) income and net (loss) income per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123 to
stock-based employee compensation (in thousands, except per share data). Assumptions used to value awards granted during the three and six months ended September 30, 2004 do not differ
materially from those used during fiscal 2004.

Foreign
currency translation for the quarter ended September 30, 2004 of $(0.7) million includes increases in goodwill and identifiable intangibles of $0.3 million
and $0.2 million, respectively, relating to the translation of intangible assets whose functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar. Foreign currency translation-current period for the six
months ended September 30, 2004 of $(1.6) million includes increases in goodwill and identifiable intangibles of $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively, relating to
the translation of intangible assets whose functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar.

During
the preparation of the financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2004, the Company noted that goodwill and identifiable intangibles attributable to foreign
entities but recorded at the parent company level were not remeasured in the functional currencies of the entities to which they relate for periods subsequent to the Company's adoption of fresh-start
reporting (July 18, 2003). Comprehensive loss for the six months ended September 30, 2004 includes $1.9 million which represents the cumulative effect of changes in foreign
currency exchange rates on remeasuring goodwill and identifiable intangible assets from the functional currencies of the entities to which they relate to the reporting currency of the U.S. dollar from
July 18, 2003 through March 31, 2004. For that period goodwill and intangible assets increased by $1.1 million and $0.8 million, respectively. The Company believes the
effect of the adjustment to goodwill and identifiable intangible assets, stockholders' equity and comprehensive income (loss) as of and for the individual and year-to-date
periods from July 18, 2003 through September 30, 2004 is not material. As a result of this adjustment, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30,
2004 appropriately reflects the translation effect resulting from the remeasurement in the respective functional currencies to the reporting currency of the U.S. dollar.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On December 16, 2004 the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R, "Share-Based Payment," (SFAS 123R) requiring that
the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be measured and recognized in the financial statements using the fair value of the awards. This statement eliminates the alternative
to use APB 25's intrinsic value method of accounting that was provided in SFAS 123. Under APB 25, issuing stock options to employees generally resulted in no recognition of
compensation cost. SFAS 123R requires entities to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of
those awards (with limited exceptions). SFAS 123R covers a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options, restricted share plans, performance based awards and
employee share purchase plans. SFAS 123R replaces SFAS 123 and supersedes APB 25. SFAS 123R is effective as of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins
after June 15, 2005 and provides for alternative transition methods, including prospective and retrospective applications. The Company is required to adopt SFAS 123R on July 1,
2005. The Company is currently assessing the impact of

14

SFAS 123R
on its compensation strategies and financial statements and determining which transition alternative it will elect. The Company believes the adoption of SFAS 123R may have a
material effect on its operating results if current compensation strategies are continued.

Reclassifications and Revisions

Certain amounts previously reported have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation, including the reporting of foreign currency transaction gains
(losses) expense separately from general and administrative expense.

3.     Marketable Securities

debt securities consist of auction rate securities which mature in December 2043. These securities have auction dates which are typically every thirty days resulting in a fair
value which approximates carrying value. During the three and six months ended September 30, 2004 proceeds from sales of available-for-sale securities amounted to
$12.0 million. There were no realized gains or losses as a result of those sales.

4.     Discontinued Operations

In September 2002, the Company and Remedy entered into an agreement (Sale Agreement) with BMC Software, Inc. (BMC) pursuant to which BMC, subject to
bid procedures approved by the Bankruptcy Court, acquired the assets and assumed substantially all the liabilities of the Remedy business for $355.0 million, subject to adjustments provided for
in the Sale Agreement. An indemnification holdback of $10.0 million of the sales proceeds was placed into escrow for BMC and released to the Company in November 2003.

Results
of discontinued operations for the 109 days ended July 18, 2003 consisted of revenues of $0.3 million and operating income of $0.3 million related to
the collection of a Remedy related trade receivable that had extended payment terms and was not transferred as part of the sale.

5.     Restructuring and Other

For the Predecessor Company's 109 days ended July 18, 2003, restructuring and other represented a gain realized upon the sale of certain minority
investments in other companies.

During
June 2002, the Company began to implement a restructuring plan to reduce expenses in line with future revenue expectations and to focus operations on the core market and
established an accrual for anticipated future charges for the plan. At March 31, 2004, the remaining accrual was $1.1 million, which related primarily to foreign lease settlements. In
the six-month period ended September 30, 2004, the Company paid or otherwise settled approximately $0.6 million in lease termination liabilities, leaving a balance of
$0.5 million in the accrual at September 30, 2004.

6.     Reorganization Items

As described in Note 1, on September 22, 2002, the Company and its Remedy subsidiary filed for voluntary protection from creditors under
Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. As a result of the Company's Chapter 11 filing, its financial accounting has been subject to the provisions of
SOP 90-7 for the reporting periods subsequent to September 22, 2002 through July 18, 2003. Pursuant to SOP 90-7, revenue, expenses (including
professional fees), realized gains and losses, and provisions for losses resulting from the reorganization of the business are reported separately as reorganization items. Reorganization items, net
for the Successor Company consist primarily of professional fees directly related to the bankruptcy filing net of $0.1 million of gains on settlements with creditors. Reorganization items, net
for the Predecessor Company consist of the following (in thousands):

For
the 18 and 109 days ended July 18, 2003, the Predecessor Company recorded a net reorganization gain of $386.1 million and $378.8 million, respectively. Of
this gain, $358.5 million resulted from the fair value adjustments to the Company's assets and liabilities with the adoption of fresh-start reporting. The Company also recognized a
$35.4 million gain on its settlement with creditors upon exiting bankruptcy proceedings. These gains were partially offset by costs directly related to the implementation of the Company's
Reorganization Plan.

7.     Segment Information

Beginning in the second quarter of fiscal 2005 the Company changed its basis of segmentation from a single reportable segment to two reportable segments as a
result of changes in the manner in which management evaluates the performance of the business. This change was made possible by

16

---



improvements
in internal financial reporting. The two reportable segments align with the internal management of worldwide business operations:



The
Company's Chief Executive Officer evaluates segment financial performance based on segment revenues only. The Company's Chief Executive Officer does not evaluate the financial
performance of each segment based on its respective operating income, assets or capital expenditures.

The
following table summarizes segment revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2004, the 74 days ended September 30, 2003 and the 18 days ended

8.     Income Taxes

The liability method is used in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial
reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities.

The
effective tax rates for the Successor Company's three and six months ended September 30, 2004 were approximately (42.3)% and (14.4)%, respectively. The Company's income tax
expense relates primarily to foreign taxes paid for which no offsetting tax benefits are available and interest accrued on certain tax contingencies. During these periods, the Company did not
recognize any benefit from federal or state income tax losses, because future benefit from losses was not likely to be realized. If tax benefits accrued by the Successor Company are realized in future
periods, the benefit will be recorded as a reduction of tax expense.

The
Company is required, as part of the process of preparing its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, to estimate income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which it
operates. This process involves estimating the current tax liability together with assessing timing differences resulting from differing treatments of items for tax and financial reporting purposes.
These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Company must then assess the likelihood that its deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income. To the extent
that the Company believes that recovery is not likely, it must establish a valuation allowance. Significant management judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes, deferred tax
assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance recorded against net deferred tax assets. The Company has recorded a valuation allowance on substantially all of its net deferred tax asset balances
as of September 30, 2004, and March 31, 2004 because of uncertainties related to utilization of deferred tax assets, primarily related to net operating loss carryforwards, before they
expire. At such time, if any, as it is determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets are realizable, the valuation allowance will be reduced. Reductions for deferred tax
assets generated prior to the adoption of fresh-start reporting will be recorded as reductions of goodwill.

The
Company is currently reviewing the potential impact of the one-time favorable foreign dividend provisions enacted on October 22, 2004 as part of the American Jobs
Creation Act of 2004 (the "Jobs Act"). The Jobs Act creates a temporary incentive for U.S. corporations to repatriate earnings of foreign subsidiaries by providing an elective 85% dividends received
deduction for certain dividends paid during a specified period; for the Company, this would be applicable to either its fiscal year 2005 or its fiscal year 2006. The deduction is subject to numerous
limitations and requirements, including the adoption of a specific domestic reinvestment plan for the repatriated funds. The Company has not yet determined whether it will repatriate future earnings
of some of its foreign subsidiaries under the Jobs Act but will decide within the timeframe the incentive is available. Unremitted earnings on which no deferred taxes have been provided amounted to
approximately $44.5 million at March 31, 2004.

Because
of its size and the nature of its business, the Company is subject to routine tax compliance reviews by the Internal Revenue Service and other taxing authorities, including
challenges to various positions the Company asserts. The Company has accrued for tax contingencies based upon its best estimate of the taxes ultimately expected to be paid and updates these accruals
over time as more information becomes available. A significant portion of the Company's taxes payable balance comprises liabilities for tax contingencies that have been recorded to address tax
exposures. The Company is currently undergoing several examinations by taxing authorities in various jurisdictions. While the Company believes it has established appropriate reserves for tax
contingencies, the taxing authorities may assert that the Company owes taxes in excess of the reserves it has established.

18

---



Due
to the adoption of fresh-start reporting, any adjustments to the Company's tax assets or liabilities that existed prior to the adoption of fresh-start reporting are recorded as
adjustments to goodwill. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2004 the Company recorded net reductions to goodwill totaling approximately $0.4 million and
$0.6 million, respectively, for adjustments to the Company's tax assets and liabilities that existed prior to the adoption of fresh-start reporting. These adjustments related mainly to the
release of certain tax reserves as management has determined the Company no longer has exposure for the associated matters.

9.     Contingent Liabilities

Bankruptcy Claims

Approximately 1,200 claims were filed against the Company based on events that took place prior to its bankruptcy-law filing. Through
February 28, 2005, the Company has paid, settled or otherwise disposed of general unsecured claims (Class 8) asserted against it with an original aggregate face amount of approximately
$380.6 million. To resolve these claims the Company has paid or agreed to pay over time approximately $45.0 million in cash. As of February 28, 2005, there were general unsecured
claims asserted in the original aggregate face amount of approximately $3.5 million remaining to be resolved. There were also approximately $1.7 million in priority and administrative
claims remaining to be resolved. These remaining general unsecured and other claims include claims that are asserted in a minimum amount or an unliquidated amount and the claims can be amended to
higher amounts. Prior claim determinations are also subject to appeal. Because the total liability associated with the claims depends upon the final amounts asserted by claimants, the outcome of
claims classification hearings by the Bankruptcy Court, claims objections, settlement negotiations, and potential litigation and appeals, the total amount to be paid by the Company is uncertain. The
Company believes that it has set aside adequate reserves for payments of the Class 8 claims as well as
the remaining priority and administrative claims and that the aggregate Class 8 claims payment should be within and possibly below the range of payments projected at between
$49.0 million and $65.0 million by the various constituencies in the bankruptcy proceedings. Payments exceeding the reserved amounts could have an adverse effect on the Company's
financial position, results of operations or liquidity. Because claims remain in dispute, the Company is unable to predict the payment amount or the period over which payments would be made.

One
of the more significant unsecured claims was asserted by Microsoft Corporation and its MSLI, GP affiliate (collectively, Microsoft), for alleged unauthorized and unlicensed use of
their software. Microsoft filed (i) a proof of claim in December 2002 seeking at least $3.0 million related to the Company's use of Microsoft products in the period prior to the
bankruptcy filing, (ii) an adversary complaint in January 2003 seeking monetary damages in an unspecified amount as well as injunctive relief, and (iii) an administrative claim in
September 2003 seeking monetary damages in an unspecified amount related to the period after the Company's bankruptcy filing. The Company agreed with Microsoft that all of its claims and
contentions should be decided in the context of the adversary complaint filed in the Bankruptcy Court. In March 2003, Peregrine filed an answer to Microsoft's adversary complaint denying the
material allegations and raising affirmative defenses. Between October 2003 and June 2004, the Company engaged in settlement negotiations with Microsoft. In November 2003 the
Company entered into a new enterprise license agreement with Microsoft. In June 2004 Peregrine entered into a settlement agreement with Microsoft that resolved the adversary complaint pursuant
to which Microsoft dismissed the adversary complaint with prejudice and the Company granted Microsoft an allowed administrative claim and Class 8 claim under the Reorganization Plan. All
payments required under the settlement agreement have been accrued and reported on the consolidated balance sheet.

Securities and Exchange Commission Enforcement Actions and Federal Government Investigations

In June and July 2003, the Company entered into agreements to settle a civil action brought against it by the SEC. Under the terms of the settlement, the
Company agreed to:



Because
the Company is not current in its periodic reporting obligations to the SEC, it is not in compliance with the requirement of the settlement relating to violation of federal
securities laws. While the Company remains in discussions with the SEC, it can give no assurance that a further enforcement action will not be brought against it by the SEC. Responding to any such
enforcement action could be expensive and time-consuming for management and could adversely affect the Company's reputation and ability to generate sales.

A
number of the Company's former employees, including its former chief financial officer, treasurer, assistant treasurer and two former sales executives, have pleaded guilty to various
felony charges in connection with Peregrine's past accounting irregularities and are awaiting sentencing. A number of other former employees, including Peregrine's former chief executive officer and
chairman, chief operating officer, two executive vice presidents of worldwide sales, the vice president of finance and chief accounting officer and other sales and finance executives, have been
charged with various felonies in connection with the Company's accounting irregularities and are awaiting trial. An Arthur Andersen partner who formerly was the Company's lead auditor also was
indicted in connection with these events. The criminal charges generally relate to the manipulation of the Company's apparent financial condition, misleading investors, hindering the government's
investigation or conspiracy. In most of these cases, the SEC filed a civil action against the individuals alleging violations of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and
the rules promulgated thereunder.

The
Department of Justice and the SEC are continuing their investigations into a number of individuals formerly associated with Peregrine. While the Company is fully cooperating with the
SEC and the DOJ in their investigations and the Company is not aware that Peregrine or any of its current employees is a subject or target of investigation, it is possible that the SEC could bring
further civil actions against the Company or that the DOJ could bring criminal charges against the Company. Any
such actions or charges could adversely affect the Company's reputation among existing and potential customers and adversely affect the Company's revenue, stock price and employee morale.

On
July 5, 2002, the Company received a letter from the Committee on Energy and Commerce of the U.S. House of Representatives with a subpoena for documents pursuant to
Rules X and XI of the U.S. House of Representatives concerning the Company's accounting irregularities. The Company provided the Committee on Energy and Commerce the documents it subpoenaed.
The Company is not aware of any other activities by the Committee relating to it.

Luddy v. Peregrine

In May 2004, Frederic Luddy, the Company's former chief technology officer, filed a complaint against the Company in the Court of Chancery for the State of
Delaware seeking advancement of certain legal fees and expenses. Mr. Luddy is a defendant in a class action suit filed on behalf of former Peregrine stockholders under the federal securities
laws, pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California (the Federal Securities Action), and in an action filed by the Peregrine Litigation Trustee as successor to certain
rights and causes of action of Peregrine under the Reorganization Plan, pending in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of San Diego (the Litigation Trustee Action). These
actions seek to recover monetary damages from Mr. Luddy based on pre-bankruptcy events. Mr. Luddy's complaint alleged that Peregrine is required to advance or reimburse him
for his defense expenses in connection with the Federal Securities Action and the Litigation Trustee Action. His complaint also alleged that, pursuant to a paragraph of the Bankruptcy Court's order
confirming the Reorganization Plan, his indemnity claim can be pursued in state court. In June 2004, the Company removed Mr. Luddy's complaint from Delaware state court to the Bankruptcy
Court. The Company also filed a motion in Bankruptcy Court to dismiss the complaint on the basis that, among other things, Mr. Luddy failed to file any proof of claim before the Bankruptcy
Court and that his claim is barred by the discharge injunction entered in connection with the Bankruptcy Court's approval of the Reorganization Plan. On August 9, 2004, Mr. Luddy filed a
unilateral dismissal of his complaint, without prejudice, and on the same day filed a new complaint in the Delaware Court of Chancery, seeking the same relief as in his prior complaint. The Company
removed Mr. Luddy's new complaint to the Bankruptcy Court and filed a new motion to dismiss his complaint. Mr. Luddy, in turn, filed a motion to remand the case to state court. On
November 10, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court denied Mr. Luddy's motion for remand and found that it had jurisdiction to consider the complaint. Also on November 10, 2004, the
Bankruptcy Court granted in part and denied in part the Company's motion to dismiss, without prejudice to the Company's right to renew the motion later, after discovery and formal fact finding. On
February 23, 2005, Mr. Luddy filed an amended complaint, which the Company answered on March 15, 2005. Discovery is scheduled to be completed by May 2005, but no trial date has
been set. Peregrine believes Mr. Luddy's claims are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against them. While the outcome is not currently determinable, in the opinion of management
the matter will not materially affect the Company's financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Other Litigation

The Company is also involved in legal proceedings, claims, and litigation arising from the ordinary course of business. Although the ultimate results of these
legal proceedings, claims and litigation are not currently determinable, in the opinion of management these matters will not materially affect the Company's financial position, results of operations
or liquidity.

10.   Subsequent Events

Sale of Investment

In January 2005 the Company received a $4.2 million initial payment in connection with the sale of one of its cost-method investments.
The Company was carrying this investment at $3.1 million as of September 30, 2004 and March 31, 2004. The Company will recognize a $1.1 million gain on this sale in the
fiscal 2005 fourth quarter. In addition to the $4.2 million initial payment received, the Company has rights to receive up to $0.5 million of additional proceeds from the sale of this
investment upon final resolution of purchase contingencies. Given the uncertainties surrounding the contingencies, amounts subsequently received, if any, will be recorded as an additional gain on the
sale in the period received. At September 30, 2004, the carrying amount of the investment is included in other current assets.

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

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and capital resources should be read in
conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this report. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis, or set forth elsewhere in
this report, includes forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties. Readers should carefully review the information set forth under the caption "Risk Factors" contained in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004, filed December 20, 2004, for a discussion of important factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from our historical or anticipated results described herein, or implied by the forward-looking statements in this report. We undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking
statements for any reason.

The information contained in this section is generally limited to the reporting periods covered by this report. Please note, however, that we have supplemented
our discussion of liquidity and capital resources for the three months ended September 30, 2004 with a more current discussion of our liquidity and capital resources as of December 31,
2004.

Most of the financial results described in this section are historical. Until our periodic reports are up to date, investors will not have current financial
information. For this reason, and based on the other risk factors contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004, we believe trading in
our securities at this time is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk.

OVERVIEW

From our initial public offering in 1997 through 2001, we significantly expanded our product lines and business through a series of acquisitions, the most
significant of which were:



As
our operations grew through these acquisitions, our operating costs increased significantly. At the same time, the software industry began a downturn and we faced a challenging sales
environment. These factors created a liquidity crisis for us that was exacerbated by covenant defaults under our credit facility during the quarter ended December 31, 2001. This resulted in our
required repayment of approximately $100.0 million of outstanding debt.

In
January 2002, the SEC began an informal investigation into Peregrine and our then chief executive officer, Stephen Gardner, pertaining to transactions with Critical
Path, Inc. that had taken place in the first half of fiscal 2001 and involved $3.3 million in Peregrine revenue. In February 2002, Peregrine's Audit Committee initiated an
independent investigation into the transactions with Critical Path. In early May 2002, the Audit Committee and, upon its recommendation, the Board of Directors initiated a broad internal
investigation, obtained the resignations of Mr. Gardner and our chief financial officer at that time, Matthew Gless, among others, and publicly disclosed that we were

22

---



conducting
an internal investigation into potential accounting irregularities or frauds, including alleged accounting abuses by our senior management resulting in a substantive overstatement of
revenue in prior periods. In mid-May 2002, we announced that we would restate our consolidated financial statements for all of fiscal years 2000 and 2001 and for the first three
quarters of fiscal 2002 (that is, the period from April 1999 through December 2001) as a result of the discovery of accounting irregularities during those periods, and we also announced
that our financial statements and related audit reports for the restatement period should not be relied upon.

In
June 2002 our newly appointed chief executive officer and chief financial officer, and the rest of the management team, simultaneously focused on four immediate goals:



We
streamlined our operations by divesting a number of businesses and non-core product lines and significantly reduced our personnel and cost structure. We also implemented a
restructuring plan to reduce expenses in line with future revenue expectations.

On
September 22, 2002, we filed for voluntary protection under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of
Delaware. Our Reorganization Plan was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court on July 18, 2003. We emerged from bankruptcy law protection on August 7, 2003.

As
a result of our bankruptcy law filing under Chapter 11, we were subject to the provisions of AICPA Statement of Position 90-7, "Financial Reporting of
Entities in Reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code," (SOP 90-7) for the reporting periods subsequent to September 22, 2002 through July 18, 2003. Pursuant to
SOP 90-7, we were required, among other things, to classify on the consolidated balance sheet liabilities arising prior to the September 22, 2002 petition date that were
subject to compromise separately from those that were not, as well as liabilities arising post-petition. The liabilities that were potentially affected by the Reorganization Plan were
reported at the estimated amounts that would be allowed under the Reorganization Plan, even if they were ultimately settled for lesser amounts. Revenue, expenses (including professional fees),
realized gains and losses, and provisions for losses resulting from the reorganization of the business were reported separately as reorganization items.

We
applied the fresh-start reporting provisions of SOP 90-7 in the quarter ended September 30, 2003. The effect of fresh-start reporting is discussed in
Note 1 of our notes to consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended March 31, 2004.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These accounting principles require us to make
certain estimates, judgments and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions upon which we rely are reasonable based upon information available to us at the time that these
estimates, judgments and assumptions are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, as well
as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the periods presented. To the extent there are material differences between these estimates, judgments or assumptions and actual results, our
financial statements will be

23

---



affected.
The significant accounting policies that we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results include the following:



Fresh-Start Reporting

We adopted the fresh-start reporting provisions of SOP 90-7 on July 18, 2003. This resulted in a new basis of accounting. Under
fresh-start reporting, the reorganization value of the entity, as described below, is allocated to the entity's assets based on fair values, and liabilities are stated at the present value of amounts
to be paid determined at current interest rates. The determination of the reorganization value and fair value of assets relies on a number of estimates and assumptions, the ultimate outcome of which
are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies beyond our control.

Reorganization
value is the fair value of the entity before considering liabilities, and it approximates the amount a willing buyer would pay for the assets of the entity immediately
after reorganization. With the assistance of third-party financial advisors, we determined the fair value of the new common stock for the reorganized Company to be $270 million, which
represents the business enterprise value adjusted for debt financing and other liabilities net of cash. For purposes of applying SOP 90-7, we used a business enterprise value of
$277 million, representing our best estimate of the Company's reorganized business enterprise value.

Fresh-start
reporting requires that the reorganization value be allocated to the entity's assets in conformity with procedures specified by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 141, "Business Combinations" (SFAS 141). We engaged an independent appraiser to assist in determining the fair market value of our identifiable intangible assets. Identifiable
intangible assets consist of developed technology, trademarks and trade names, customer contracts and customer lists. The fair value of these identifiable intangible assets was estimated to be
$125.1 million and was determined using
the Company's estimated future cash flow discounted at the Company's weighted cost of capital of 12.0%. The identifiable intangible assets have estimated useful lives ranging from five to six years.

Any
amount remaining after allocation of the reorganization value of the Company to identified tangible and intangible assets is recorded as goodwill. Goodwill is not amortized, but is
subject to periodic evaluation for impairment at least annually.

Revenue Recognition

As described below, significant management judgment and estimates must be made and used in connection with the revenue recognized in any accounting period.
Material differences could result in the amount and the timing of our revenue for any period if our management made different judgments or utilized different estimates. Our revenue is derived
principally from software product licensing and related services. Our standard end-user license agreement provides for an initial fee for use of our products in perpetuity. License fees
are generally due upon the granting of the license. Maintenance revenue consists of fees for technical support and software updates. Consulting and training revenue is for fees earned for professional
services provided to customers primarily on a time and material basis. We recognize revenue in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Position 97-2, "Software Revenue
Recognition," as amended by SOP 98-4 and SOP 98-9 (SOP 97-2), and Staff Accounting

24

---



Bulletins
No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements" and No. 104, "Revenue Recognition," issued by the SEC.

We
recognize revenue from license agreements with direct customers when all of the following conditions are met: a non-cancelable license agreement has been signed; the
product has been delivered; there are no material uncertainties regarding customer acceptance; the fee is fixed or determinable; collection of the resulting receivable is deemed probable; risk of
concession is deemed remote; and we have no other significant obligations. Estimates on collectibility are made by management on a transaction-by-transaction basis. If provided
in a license agreement, acceptance provisions generally grant customers a right of refund only if the licensed software does not perform in accordance with its published specifications. We believe the
likelihood of non-acceptance in these situations is remote and we generally recognize revenue when all other criteria for revenue recognition are met. If such determination cannot be made,
revenue is recognized upon the earlier of receipt of written acceptance or when the acceptance period has lapsed.

For
contracts with multiple obligations (e.g., current and future product delivery obligations, post-contract support or other services), we recognize revenue using the
residual method. Under the residual method, we allocate revenue to the undelivered elements of the contract
based on vendor-specific objective evidence of their fair value. This objective evidence is the sales price of each element when sold separately or the annual renewal rate specified in the agreement
for maintenance. We recognize revenue allocated to undelivered products when all of the other criteria for revenue recognition have been met.

Revenue
from maintenance services is recognized ratably over the contractual period, generally one year. Consulting revenue is primarily derived from software product integration
services, which we typically perform on a time and material basis under separate service agreements. In our judgment, consulting services are not usually considered essential to the functionality of
the software. Training revenue derives from instructor-led and online educational services provided relating to our products. As a result, we recognize license revenue upon delivery of the
software, which generally is prior to the delivery of the consulting and training services. Revenue from consulting and training services are recognized as the respective services are performed.

The
Company also derives revenue from the sale of its software licenses and maintenance services through distributors. Revenue from sales made through distributors is recognized when the
distributors have sold the software licenses or services to their customers and the criteria for revenue recognition under SOP 97-2 are met. Revenue from maintenance services sold
through distributors is recognized ratably over the contractual period with the end user.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We evaluate the recoverability of our long-lived assets, including property and equipment and certain identifiable intangible assets, exclusive of
goodwill, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" (SFAS 144). Goodwill is
tested for impairment in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS 144 requires us to review for impairment of
long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Factors that could trigger an impairment review include:



25

---





When
we determine that the carrying amount of long-lived assets may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators, we assess the assets
for impairment based on the estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated
future undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recorded for the excess of the asset's carrying amount over its fair value. Fair value is generally determined based on the estimated future
discounted cash flows over the remaining useful life of the asset using a discount rate determined by our management to be commensurate with the risk inherent in our current business model. The
assumptions supporting the cash flows, including the discount rates, are determined using our best estimates as of the date of the impairment review.

Legal Contingencies

We are currently involved in various claims and legal proceedings. Periodically, we review the status of each significant matter and assess our potential
financial exposure. If the potential loss from any claim or legal proceeding is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated, we accrue a liability for the estimated loss.
Significant judgment is required in both the determination of probability and the determination of whether an exposure is reasonably estimable. Because of uncertainties related to these matters,
accruals are based on the best information available at the time in accordance with SFAS No. 5, "Accounting for Contingencies." As additional information becomes available, we reassess the
potential liability related to our pending claims and litigation and may revise our estimates. Such revisions in the estimates of the potential liabilities could have a material impact on our results
of operations and financial position. See "Legal Proceedings," beginning on page 35 of this report and Note 6 of our notes to condensed consolidated financial statements for a
description of our material legal proceedings.

Accounting for Income Taxes

Significant judgment is required in determining our worldwide income tax provision. In a global business, there are many transactions and calculations in which
the ultimate tax outcome is uncertain. Some of these uncertainties arise as a consequence of revenue sharing and cost reimbursement arrangements among related entities and segregation of foreign and
domestic income and expense to avoid double taxation. We have accrued reserves for tax contingencies based upon our estimates of the tax to ultimately be paid. This estimate is updated as new
information becomes available. While these estimates are based upon the information available when these statements are issued, no assurance can be given that the final outcome of these matters will
not differ from that which is reflected in our historical income tax provisions and accruals. Such differences could have a material effect on our income tax provision and financial position, results
of operations or liquidity in the period for which such determination is made.

We
have recorded a valuation allowance on substantially all of our net deferred tax asset balances as of September 30, 2004, and March 31, 2004 because of uncertainties
related to utilization of deferred tax assets, primarily related to net operating loss carryforwards, before they expire. At such time, if any, as it is determined that it is more likely than not that
the deferred tax assets are realizable, the valuation allowance will be reduced. Reductions for deferred tax assets generated prior to the adoption of fresh-start reporting will be recorded as
reductions to goodwill.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

On July 18, 2003, the Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Reorganization Plan and it became effective on August 7, 2003. Results of operations presented
for periods prior to and including July 18, 2003 pertain to our company prior to its reorganization (our Predecessor Company). The results of operations presented for periods after
July 18, 2003 pertain to our company after its reorganization

(our
Successor Company). Where discussion applies to both the Predecessor Company and the Successor Company, we refer to the Company. As a result of the implementation of fresh-start reporting on
July 18, 2003, the Successor Company's results of operations are not comparable to results reported in prior periods for the Predecessor Company, because of differences in the basis of
reporting and the capital structure for the Predecessor Company and the Successor Company. See Note 1 of our notes to consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the period ended March 31, 2004 for additional information about the consummation of the Reorganization Plan and the implementation of fresh-start reporting.

As
required by Item 303(b) of Regulation S-K, the discussion and analysis of results of operations covers all periods for which financial statements are
presented, even those that relate to periods shorter than full three- and six-month periods. However, for clarity of presentation, where the adoption of fresh-start reporting did not have
a material effect, we have only compared the results of operations of our Successor Company for the three- and six-month periods ended September 30, 2004 with the historical results
of operations of the Successor and Predecessor Company on a combined basis for the three- and six-month periods ended September 30, 2003.

The
discussion and analysis of results of operations for the shortened periods are not directly comparable to the full three- and six-month periods in the current fiscal
year. For example, our Successor Company's license revenue, maintenance revenue, amortization, income taxes, discontinued operations and reorganization items, net were all affected by the adoption of
fresh-start accounting. In order to provide an informative comparison of results of operations with our Successor Company's results for the three-month period ended September 30, 2004, our
Predecessor Company's results of operations are presented for the 18-day period ended July 18, 2003 beside our Successor Company's results of operations for the 74-day
period ended September 30, 2003, as well as on a pro forma combined basis for the combined three-month period. Similarly, our Predecessor Company's results of operations are presented for the
109-day period ended July 18, 2003 beside our Successor Company's results of operations for the 74-day period ended September 30, 2003, as well as on a pro forma
combined basis for the combined six-month period, in order to facilitate a comparison with our Successor Company's results of operations for the six-month period ended
September 30, 2004. This information is provided for comparative purposes only, but the value of such a comparison may be limited. The pro forma combined financial information does not reflect
the results of operations that either our Predecessor Company or our Successor Company would have achieved for the full fiscal 2004 three- and six-month periods. The pro forma combined
financial information for the three- and six-month periods ended September 30, 2003 is presented on a merely additive basis and does not give pro forma effect to our Predecessor
Company's results as if the consummation of the Reorganization Plan and the related fresh-start and other adjustments had occurred at the beginning of the period presented.

transactions
initiated prior to fiscal 2003. The reasons for the revenue increases or decreases are discussed below.

Licenses

We generally license our products to end-users under perpetual license agreements for an up-front fee. License revenue for the pro forma
combined three and six months ended September 30, 2003 includes $0.6 million and $5.6 million, respectively, from license transactions originally entered into prior to fiscal 2003
but for which all revenue recognition criteria were not satisfied until those periods. The delay in recognizing revenue from license transactions originally entered into prior to fiscal 2003 arises
from long-term installment payments, which are recognized as installments come due, and amounts related to products for which the expiration of certain product exchange or upgrade rights
occurred in the later period. Commencing in fiscal 2003, we changed certain business practices by limiting the number of long-term installment contracts and contracts containing product
exchange or upgrade rights. Upon the application of fresh-start reporting as of July 18, 2003, amounts that would have been recognized as revenue in future fiscal quarters by the Successor
Company for such arrangements were eliminated because we have no significant future performance obligations under these agreements. Anticipated collections of Predecessor Company extended pay
receivables were recorded as other assets in connection with the
adoption of fresh-start reporting. At September 30, 2004 other assets included $1.7 million of such receivables which are expected to be collected by March 31, 2005.

License
revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2004 increased by $1.1 million, or 8%, from the pro forma combined license revenue for the three months ended
September 30, 2003, excluding transactions initiated prior to fiscal 2003. The increase primarily reflected higher unit sales as a result of demand for new and additional licenses, largely from
our existing customer base. This in part reflected our emergence from bankruptcy proceedings in August 2003 and our subsequent increased sales and marketing efforts. License revenue totaled
$15.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, an increase of $0.5 million, or 3%, from the $15.1 million for the pro forma combined three months ended
September 30, 2003.

License
revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2004 increased by $4.8 million, or 22%, from the pro forma combined six months ended September 30, 2003,
excluding transactions initiated prior to
fiscal 2003. The increase primarily reflected higher unit sales as a result of demand for new and additional licenses, largely from our existing customer base, precipitated, in part, by our emergence
from bankruptcy proceedings in August 2003 and our subsequent increased sales and marketing efforts. License revenue totaled $26.8 million for the six months ended September 30, 2004, a
decrease of $0.8 million, or 3%, from the $27.6 million for the pro forma combined six months ended September 30, 2003. License revenue for the period ended September 30,
2004 resulted mostly from license transactions entered into during the period and, as a result of the adoption of fresh-start reporting, did not include any revenue from license transactions initiated
prior to fiscal 2003. License revenue for the pro forma combined six months ended September 30, 2003 included $22.0 million of license fees attributable mostly to new license
transactions entered into during the period and $5.6 million attributable to license transactions initiated prior to fiscal 2003 but for which revenue was first recognizable in the pro forma
combined six months ended September 30, 2003.

Maintenance

Most customers purchase maintenance services when buying new or additional licenses. Maintenance services consist primarily of providing enhancements and upgrades
for our products along with customer support services for our products. Generally, maintenance contracts are entered into for one-year periods, contain economic index fee escalation
provisions and are renewable annually at the customer's option. Maintenance contracts are generally prepaid by the customer and revenue is recognized ratably over the contract period. Maintenance
revenue may include fees for services rendered in prior periods in instances in which customers did not renew their maintenance contracts until the current period.

As
described earlier, we adopted the fresh-start reporting provisions of SOP 90-7 as of July 18, 2003. Fresh-start reporting requires that the reorganization
value be allocated to the entity's assets in accordance with SFAS No. 141. In accordance with these pronouncements, we determined the fair market value of our assets and liabilities at
July 18, 2003, including our deferred maintenance revenue balances. Accordingly, we reduced our deferred maintenance revenue balances by $6.3 million to reflect the fair value of
maintenance contracts existing at July 18, 2003. This $6.3 million adjustment has the effect of reducing maintenance revenue over the maintenance contract period for those contracts that
existed when we adopted fresh-start reporting. In the three and six months ended September 30, 2004 maintenance revenue was reduced by $0.4 million and $1.0 million,,
respectively. The balance of the adjustment of $1.0 million at September 30, 2004 will be amortized through March 31, 2007.

Maintenance
revenue totaled $28.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, an increase of $6.2 million, or 28%, from the $22.1 million reported
for the pro forma combined three months ended September 30, 2003. This increase is net of the $0.4 million and a $1.7 million reduction resulting from the adoption of fresh-start
reporting for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and the pro forma combined three months ended September 30, 2003, respectively. Excluding the reductions in maintenance revenue
resulting from the adoption of fresh-start reporting, maintenance revenue
increased $4.9 million, or 21%, from the pro forma combined three months ended September 30, 2003. The increase occurred mainly as a result of increased focus on renewal efforts and
because the revenue attributable to additional licenses covered by maintenance contracts exceeded the revenue lost from cancellations, in whole or in part, of maintenance contracts during the renewal
process.

Maintenance
revenue totaled $53.6 million for the six months ended September 30, 2004, an increase of $6.6 million, or 14%, from the $47.0 million reported
for the pro forma combined six months ended September 30, 2003. This increase is net of the $1.0 million and a $1.7 million reduction resulting from the adoption of fresh-start
reporting for the six months ended September 30, 2004 and the pro forma combined six months ended September 30, 2003, respectively. Excluding the reduction in maintenance revenue
resulting from the adoption of fresh-start reporting, maintenance revenue increased $5.9 million, or 12%, from the pro forma combined six months ended September 30, 2003. The increase
occurred mainly as a result of increased focus on renewal efforts and because the revenue attributable to additional licenses covered by maintenance contracts exceeded the revenue lost from
cancellations, in whole or in part, of maintenance contracts during the renewal process.

Consulting and Training

Consulting and training services include a range of professional and educational services intended to help our customers use our software products more
effectively. Beginning in June 2002, as part of expense-cutting initiatives, we reduced our consulting staff and began to refer customers more frequently to third-party service providers for
general consulting services. We began to focus on supplementing our customers' and the third-party service providers' project teams with consultants

possessing
specialized knowledge of the more complex aspects of our products and the best practices for integrating our products into the customers' business operations.

During
the latter half of fiscal 2004, the Company began to reinvest in expanding its consulting business due to increasing customer demand after emergence from bankruptcy. The Company
hired additional business development personnel, new managers and other staff to address this demand.

Revenue
for consulting and training services totaled $4.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, a decrease of $0.2 million, or 5%, from the
$4.2 million pro forma combined consulting and training revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2003. This decrease primarily reflects the fact that the pro forma combined three
months ended September 30, 2003 includes revenue from arrangements that were in place prior to the June 2002 when we changed our consulting services strategy. This fiscal 2004 revenue
related to pre-June 2002 arrangements was greater than the revenue increases related to our reinvestment efforts which began in the latter half of fiscal 2004.

Revenue
for consulting and training services totaled $7.8 million for the six months ended September 30, 2004, a decrease of $1.5 million, or 17%, from the
$9.3 million pro forma combined consulting and training revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2003. This decrease primarily reflects the fact that the pro forma combined six
months ended September 30, 2003 includes revenue from arrangements that were in place prior to the June 2002 when we changed our consulting services strategy. This fiscal 2004 revenue
related to pre-June 2002 arrangements was greater than the revenue increases related to our reinvestment efforts which began in the latter half of fiscal 2004.

Revenue
for the Americas territory totaled $28.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, an increase of $4.4 million, or 18%, from the pro forma
combined revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2003. License revenue for the Americas territory totaled $9.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, an
increase of $1.3 million, or 16%, from the pro forma combined license revenue for three months ended September 30, 2003. License revenue for the Americas territory for the three months
ended September 30, 2003 includes $0.6 million for license transactions entered into prior to fiscal 2003 but for which all revenue recognition criteria were not satisfied until the pro
forma combined three months ended September 30, 2003. License revenue for the Americas territory for the three months ended September 30, 2004 increased by $1.9 million, or 25%,
from the pro forma combined license revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2003, excluding transactions initiated prior to fiscal 2003. This reflected higher unit sales of new and
additional licenses, largely to our existing customer base, precipitated, in part, by our emergence from bankruptcy proceedings in August 2003 and our subsequent increased sales and marketing efforts.
Maintenance revenue for the Americas territory increased $2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004 from maintenance revenue for the Americas territory for the pro forma
combined three months ended September 30, 2003 primarily as a result of increased focus on renewal efforts and because the revenue attributable to additional licenses covered by maintenance
contracts exceeded the revenue lost from cancellations, in whole or in part, of maintenance contracts during the renewal process. Americas consulting and training revenue increased $0.4 million
as a result of the Company reinvesting in expanding its consulting business during the latter half of fiscal 2004.

Revenue
for the EMEA/AP territory totaled $19.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, an increase of $2.2 million, or 12%, from the pro forma
combined revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2003. License revenue in EMEA/AP for the three months ended September 30, 2004 decreased by $0.8 million from the pro
forma combined license revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2003 primarily as a result of lower unit sales of new and additional licenses. EMEA/AP maintenance revenue in the three
months ended September 30, 2004 increased by $3.5 million, or 42%, from the pro forma combined revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2003 primarily as a result of
increased focus on renewal efforts and because the revenue attributable to additional licenses covered by maintenance contracts exceeded the revenue lost from cancellations, in whole or in part, of
maintenance contracts during the renewal process. EMEA/AP consulting and training revenue decreased $0.6 million, or 28%, and primarily reflects the June 2002 change in our

services strategy, offset in part by the impact associated with the reinvestment efforts which began in the latter half of fiscal 2004.

Revenue
for the Americas territory totaled $50.8 million for the six months ended September 30, 2004, a decrease of $1.1 million, or 2%, from the pro forma combined
revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2003. License revenue for the Americas territory totaled $15.5 million for the six months ended September 30, 2004, a decrease of
$2.0 million, or 11%, from the pro forma combined license revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2003. License revenue for the Americas territory for the six months ended
September 30, 2003 includes $5.2 million for license transactions entered into prior to fiscal 2003 but for which all revenue recognition criteria were not satisfied until the pro forma
combined six months ended September 30, 2003. License revenue for the Americas territory for the six months ended September 30, 2004 increased by $3.2 million, or 26%, from the
pro forma combined license revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2003, excluding transactions initiated prior to fiscal 2003, as a result of higher unit sales of new and additional
licenses, largely to our existing customer base, precipitated, in part, by our emergence from bankruptcy proceedings in August 2003 and our subsequent increased sales and marketing efforts.
Maintenance revenue for the Americas territory increased $1.0 million for the six months ended September 30, 2004 from maintenance revenue for the Americas territory for the pro forma
combined six months ended September 30, 2003 primarily as a result of increased focus on renewal efforts and because the revenue attributable to additional licenses covered by maintenance
contracts exceeded the revenue lost from cancellations, in whole or in part, of maintenance contracts during the renewal process. Americas consulting and training revenue was substantially the same as
the pro forma combined consulting and training revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2003.

Revenue
for the EMEA/AP territory totaled $37.3 million for the six months ended September 30, 2004, an increase of $5.3 million, or 17%, from the pro forma combined
revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2003. License revenue in EMEA/AP for the six months ended September 30, 2004 increased $1.2 million from the pro forma combined
license revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2003 as a result of higher unit sales of new and additional licenses, largely to our existing customer base, precipitated, in part, by our
emergence from bankruptcy proceedings in August 2003 and our subsequent increased sales and marketing efforts. In addition, revenues increased as the result of hiring new personnel and improved
execution of the current sales model. EMEA/AP maintenance revenue in the six months ended September 30, 2004 increased by $5.6 million, or 33%, primarily as a result of increased focus
on renewal efforts and because the revenue attributable to additional licenses covered by maintenance contracts exceeded the revenue lost from cancellations, in whole or in part, of maintenance
contracts during the renewal process. EMEA/AP consulting and

36

---



training
revenue decreased $1.5 million, or 32%, and primarily reflects the June 2002 change in our consulting services strategy, offset in part by the impact associated with the
reinvestment efforts which began in the latter half of fiscal 2004.

COSTS AND EXPENSES

Cost of Licenses

The cost of licenses primarily consists of third-party software royalties, product packaging, documentation and production, and distribution costs.

The
cost of licenses totaled $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, and was substantially the same as the cost of licenses for the pro forma combined
three months ended September 30, 2003. The cost of licenses represented 2% and 3% of license revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and the pro forma combined three months
ended September 30, 2003, respectively.

The
cost of licenses totaled $0.7 million for the six months ended September 30, 2004, a decrease of $0.3 million, or 30%, from the pro forma combined cost of
licenses for the six months ended September 30, 2003. The cost of licenses represented 3% and 4% of license revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2004 and the pro forma combined
six months ended September 30, 2003, respectively. This decrease resulted primarily from reductions in software royalties and from ongoing
cost reductions implemented in the latter portion of fiscal 2003 through the quarter ended June 30, 2003. We began to outsource most of our product distribution beginning in the three months
ended June 30, 2003, and fully implemented the outsourcing prior to the quarter ended June 30, 2004.

Cost of Maintenance

The cost of maintenance services primarily consists of personnel, facilities and system costs related to technical support services to our customers on
maintenance contracts.

The
cost of maintenance totaled $4.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, and was substantially the same as the cost of maintenance for the pro forma
combined three months ended September 30, 2003. The cost of maintenance represented 16% and 19% of maintenance revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and the pro forma
combined three months ended September 30, 2003, respectively.

The
cost of maintenance totaled $9.0 million for the six months ended September 30, 2004, and was substantially the same as the cost of maintenance for the pro forma
combined six months ended September 30, 2003. The cost of maintenance represented 17% and 18% of maintenance revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2004 and the pro forma
combined six months ended September 30, 2003, respectively.

Cost of Consulting and Training

The cost of consulting and training services primarily consists of personnel, facilities and system costs associated with providing these services. The cost of
consulting and training services also includes fees paid to third-party subcontractors providing services on our behalf.

The
cost of consulting and training totaled $4.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, and was substantially the same as the cost of consulting and
training for the pro forma combined three months ended September 30, 2003. The cost of consulting and training represented 110% and 100% of consulting and training revenue for the three months
ended September 30, 2004 and the pro forma combined three months ended September 30, 2003. The increase as a percentage of consulting

37

---



and
training revenues reflects the static nature of the associated overhead costs relative to the corresponding decrease in direct personnel costs.

The
cost of consulting and training totaled $8.3 million for the six months ended September 30, 2004, a decrease of $0.4 million, or 4%, from the pro forma combined
six months ended September 30, 2003. The cost of consulting and training represented 107% and 93% of consulting and training revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2004 and the
pro forma combined six months ended September 30, 2003, respectively. The cost decrease resulted mostly from a decrease in direct personnel costs associated with the provision of these services
consistent with the decrease in the associated revenue. The increase as a percentage of consulting and training revenues reflects the static nature of the associated overhead costs relative to the
corresponding decrease in direct personnel costs.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expenses primarily consist of personnel costs, including sales commissions and travel costs, facilities and system costs related to our sales,
including technical pre-sales, and marketing functions. The costs of advertising and marketing promotions are also included in sales and marketing expenses.

Sales
and marketing expenses totaled $15.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, an increase of $4.1 million, or 36%, from the pro forma combined
sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2003. The increase reflects an increase in strategic marketing consulting fees, trade show costs and commission expense.
The increase in commission expense resulted primarily from the increase in license revenue, exclusive of transactions initiated prior to fiscal 2003.

Sales
and marketing expenses totaled $31.9 million for the six months ended September 30, 2004, an increase of $7.9 million, or 33%, from the pro forma combined
sales and marketing expenses for the six months ended September 30, 2003. The increase reflects an increase in strategic marketing consulting fees, trade show costs and commission expense. The
increase in commission expense resulted primarily from the increase in license revenue, exclusive of transactions initiated prior to fiscal 2003.

Research and Development

Research and development (R&D) expenses primarily consist of personnel, facilities and systems costs associated with our R&D efforts, which include software
development and product management efforts. R&D expenses also include the cost of services for consultants or other third parties that we hire from time to time to augment our own R&D personnel. No
software development costs were capitalized during the periods presented, as costs incurred between technological feasibility and product releases were minimal.

R&D
expenses totaled $6.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, a decrease of $0.5 million, or 7%, from the pro forma combined R&D expenses for the
three months ended September 30, 2003. This decrease is primarily due to reductions in third-party consulting services.

R&D
expenses totaled $14.3 million for the six months ended September 30, 2004, a decrease of $0.5 million, or 3%, from the pro forma combined R&D expenses for the
six months ended September 30, 2003. This decrease is primarily due to reductions in third-party consulting services.

General and Administrative

General and administrative (G&A) expenses consist of personnel, facilities and systems costs related to our operations. G&A also includes the cost of business
insurance and professional fees, including legal, accounting, investment banking and other advisory fees, except for fees directly related to our bankruptcy reorganization, which are accounted for
under Reorganization Items, Net.

G&A
expenses totaled $12.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, an increase of $2.0 million, or 19%, from the pro forma combined G&A expenses for
the three months ended September 30, 2003. The increase primarily reflects an increase in payroll and payroll related costs. Additionally, there were increases in professional fees for tax and
financial and accounting related services and systems costs.

G&A
expenses totaled $25.0 million for the six months ended September 30, 2004, an increase of $2.8 million, or 13%, from the pro forma combined G&A expenses for the
six months ended September 30, 2003. The increase primarily reflects an increase in payroll and payroll related costs.
Additionally, there were increases in professional fees for tax and financial and accounting related services.

Amortization of Intangible Assets

Fresh-start reporting requires that the reorganization value be allocated to the entity's assets in conformity with procedures specified by SFAS 141.
Identifiable intangible assets identified in connection with fresh-start reporting which are subject to amortization consist of developed technology, trademarks and trade names, maintenance contracts
and customer lists. With the adoption of fresh-start reporting, our Successor Company determined the fair value of these identifiable intangibles to be $125.1 million, and to have useful lives
ranging from five to six years. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2004, and the 74 days ended September 30, 2003 our Successor Company recorded non-cash
charges for amortization of intangible assets of $5.8 million, $11.6 million and $4.7 million, respectively.

Restructuring and Other

Restructuring and other for our Predecessor Company totaled $1.2 million for the 109 days ended July 18, 2003 and represents a gain realized
upon the sale of certain minority investments in other companies.

Foreign Currency Transaction Gains (Losses), Net

Foreign currency transaction gains (losses), net consist primarily of exchange rate gains or losses resulting from remeasurement of foreign-denominated
short-term intercompany and third-party receivable and payable balances and cash balances of our operating entities into their functional currencies at period-end market rates.
Foreign currency transactions resulted in gains of $0.1 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and the combined pro forma three months ended
September 30, 2003, respectively. Foreign currency transactions resulted in losses of $1.0 million and $0.7 million for the six months ended September 30, 2004 and the
combined pro forma six months ended September 30, 2003, respectively.

Reorganization Items, Net

As discussed above, as a result of our bankruptcy-law filing, as of September 22, 2002, we became subject to the provisions of
SOP 90-7 for the reporting periods subsequent to September 22, 2002. Pursuant to SOP 90-7, revenue, expenses (including professional fees), realized gains
and losses, and provisions for losses resulting from our Predecessor Company's reorganization of the business through the bankruptcy proceedings are reported separately as reorganization items, except
for the sale of the assets of our wholly-owned subsidiary, Remedy, which is recorded in discontinued operations. Our Successor Company has also incurred charges recorded in reorganization items, net,
primarily related to bankruptcy-proceeding professional fees.

Reorganization
items, net totaled $0.3 million and $1.1 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2004, respectively, and consisted primarily of
professional fees directly related to the

bankruptcy
filing net of $0.1 million of gains on settlements with creditors. Reorganization items, net totaled $3.8 million for the 74 days ended September 30, 2003 and
consisted primarily of professional fees directly related to the bankruptcy filing.

Reorganization
items, net for our Predecessor Company consist of the following (in thousands):

In
the 18 days ended July 18, 2003, our Predecessor Company recorded a net reorganization gain of $386.1 million. Of this gain, $358.5 million resulted from
the fair value adjustment to our assets and liabilities in connection with the adoption of fresh-start accounting. We also recognized a $35.4 million gain on our settlement with creditors upon
exiting bankruptcy. These gains were offset somewhat by other costs directly related to the implementation of our Reorganization Plan. Reorganization items for the 109 days ended
July 18, 2003, also include additional professional fees directly related to our bankruptcy proceeding for the three months ended June 30, 2003.

Interest Income

Interest income totaled $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 11%, from the pro forma
combined three months ended September 30, 2003. Interest income totaled $0.6 million for the six months ended September 30, 2004, a decrease of $0.4 million, or 41%, from
the pro forma combined six months ended September 30, 2003. Interest income for both periods decreased primarily as a result of lower available cash balances to invest.

Interest Expense

Interest expense primarily includes interest expense and amortized costs related to our borrowings. Interest expense totaled $1.0 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2004, a decrease of $1.2 million, or 53%, from the pro forma combined three months ended September 30, 2003. Interest expense totaled
$2.3 million for the six months ended September 30, 2004, a decrease of $4.0 million, or 64%, from the pro forma combined six months ended September 30, 2003. Interest
expense for both periods decreased primarily as a result of lower debt balances, offset in part by higher interest rates on currently outstanding debt.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense totaled $1.1 million and $2.4 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2004, compared to expenses of
$1.8 million in each of the pro forma combined three and six months ended September 30, 2003. This tax expense represented 42.3% and 14.4% of the loss from continuing operations before
income taxes for the three and six months ended September 30, 2004 and 0.5% of income from continuing operations before income taxes in each of the pro forma combined three and six months ended
September 30, 2003. Tax expense is derived primarily from taxes on foreign operations for which no U.S. federal benefit can be recorded and interest accrued on the Company's tax contingencies.

Discontinued Operations

As part of our efforts to raise cash and reduce expenses, we sold our Remedy business in November 2002. This business is treated as discontinued operations
by the Predecessor Company in the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report. Income from discontinued operations related to Remedy for the 109 days ended
July 18, 2003 of $0.3 million pertained to the collection of a trade receivable that had extended payment terms.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We have supplemented our discussion of liquidity and capital resources for the three-month period ended September 30, 2004 with a
more current discussion of our liquidity and capital resources as of December 31, 2004.

We
primarily generate cash from software licensing, maintenance renewals and the provision of consulting and training services. Our primary uses of cash are for general working capital
purposes, taxes, debt service and bankruptcy claims. We also use cash to purchase capital assets to support our business. In the first three quarters of fiscal 2005 and during fiscal 2004, our
principal liquidity requirements were for operating expenses, working capital and debt and bankruptcy related payments. We funded these liquidity requirements from cash on hand that was primarily
generated from the disposal of our non-core product lines and our SCE and Remedy businesses in 2002.

The
following table summarizes the Successor Company cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, marketable securities and working capital as of September 30, 2004 and
March 31, 2004 (dollars in thousands):

Cash
equivalents primarily consist of overnight money market accounts, time deposits, commercial paper and government agency notes. The restricted cash relates primarily to security for
certain real property leases, equipment lease obligations and a liability to a vendor. Marketable securities consist entirely of auction rate securities. Working capital (deficit) consists primarily
of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, accounts receivable, and other current assets net of accounts payable, accrued expenses, and current portions of deferred revenue and notes
payable.

For
the six months ended September 30, 2004, the 74 days ended September 30, 2003 and the 109 days ended July 18, 2003 our cash flows were as follows

Operating Activities

For the six months ended September 30, 2004 the Successor Company used $9.7 million of cash in operating activities. Our Successor Company reported
a net loss of $18.9 million and cash outflows from changes in working capital of $5.4 million. These were partially offset by non-cash charges of $14.0 million for
amortization and depreciation. Working capital changes were primarily impacted by a decrease in deferred revenue of $14.1 million, offset by a decrease in accounts receivable of
$5.9 million. Working capital changes also included the collection of $3.1 million of extended pay receivables recorded as other assets in connection with fresh-start reporting. Of the
amortization charge, $11.6 million was related to the new identifiable intangibles established with the adoption of fresh-start reporting treatment as of July 18, 2003.

For
the 74-day period ended September 30, 2003, our Successor Company operations used $1.2 million in net cash. Our Successor Company reported a net loss of
$5.4 million, including non-cash charges of $6.5 million for amortization and depreciation. Of the amortization
charge, $4.7 million was related to the new identifiable intangibles established with the adoption of fresh-start accounting treatment as of July 18, 2003. The changes in working capital
were the primary reason for the use of cash from operating activities with the decrease in accrued liabilities of $7.1 million being the primary contributor.

Our
Predecessor Company used $51.7 million of net cash in operating activities in the 109-day period ended July 18, 2003. Our Predecessor Company reported net
income from continuing operations of $373.9 million for this period. However, most of the income was non-cash in nature, because it resulted from the adoption of fresh-start
reporting treatment. During the period, our Predecessor Company used $42.9 million of cash for reorganization items related to implementing our Reorganization Plan, which accounts for most of
the decrease in the period.

Investing Activities

For the six months ended September 30, 2004 the Successor Company used $9.6 million in investing activities, which primarily reflects
$8.0 million of net purchases of marketable securities and $1.8 million of cash used for capital expenditures, mostly for computers and data processing equipment and leasehold
improvements.

For
the 74 days ended September 30, 2003 the Successor Company used $0.7 million in investing activities, which primarily reflects cash used for capital
expenditures, mostly for leasehold improvements.

For
the 109 days ended July 18, 2003 the Predecessor Company provided $32.6 million from investing activities. Cash from investing activities increased
$27.1 million because that amount of restricted cash became available for general use in accordance with our Reorganization Plan and also increased $5.4 million from the sale of
investments.

Financing Activities

For the six months ended September 30, 2004 the Successor Company used $13.1 million in financing activities. These payments primarily reflect
repayment of $10.2 million of principal on long-term debt as well as $3.1 million of principal on factor loans.

For
the 74 days ended September 30, 2003 the Successor Company repaid $2.3 million of its factor loan obligations.

For
the 109 days ended July 18, 2003, under the terms of the Reorganization Plan, our Predecessor Company paid down $24.3 million on factor loans and paid
$86.5 million, in addition to other consideration, to the holders of its convertible subordinated notes.

Status at December 31, 2004

As of December 31, 2004, the end of our fiscal 2005 third quarter, our Successor Company had non-trade obligations, including accrued interest,
of approximately $55.5 million and cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of approximately $87.5 million, of which $4.8 million was restricted. The non-trade
obligations consisted of $45.2 million in senior notes (including accrued interest), $9.9 million in deferred payment obligations related to bankruptcy settlements (net of unearned
imputed interest) and $0.4 million of factor loans.

In
the first three quarters of fiscal 2005 we have used cash for infrastructure improvements, sales and marketing efforts and, to a lesser extent, product development. These expenditures
and efforts are intended to support our current operations and position us for future growth. Our fiscal 2005 business plan differs in material respects from the business plan and financial
projections we included in our disclosure statement in support of our fourth amended Reorganization Plan in connection with our bankruptcy proceedings. As a result, the projections included in the
disclosure statement do not reflect anticipated financial results based on our current business plan.

We
believe our cash on hand and operating cash flows will be sufficient to fund our operations and planned capital expenditures and to satisfy our scheduled non-trade
obligations for at least twelve months from the date of this report. However, our ability to generate adequate cash depends upon our future performance, which in turn is subject to general economic
conditions, and financial, business and other factors affecting our operations, including factors beyond our control. We currently have no lines of credit or similar facilities with any financial
institutions. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available in the future, or that if available, we will be able to obtain it on terms favorable to us. Please review the
information set forth under the caption "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004.

Bankruptcy Claims

Approximately 1,200 claims were filed against us based on events that took place prior to our bankruptcy filing. Through February 28, 2005, the aggregate
face amount of the general unsecured (Class 8) claims asserted against us, plus the amounts we scheduled for payment for Class 8 claims without a claim asserted against us, totaled
approximately $384.1 million. After eliminating duplicate claims, claims filed in error, or claims that were invalid for some other reason, we were left with approximately 500 Class 8
claims totaling $251.1 million. Claim amounts are amended from time to time by the creditors and potential creditors asserting them and sometimes are filed with a face amount that is the
minimum amount asserted by the creditor. The amounts sought by such creditors can be increased. There are also ongoing disputes in the Bankruptcy Court regarding whether certain claims are properly
classified as general unsecured claims under Class 8 of the Reorganization Plan, which are payable in cash, or as subordinated claims under Class 9 of the Reorganization Plan.
Class 9 creditors share in the pool of common shares already issued and reserved for these claims. For these and other reasons, the total potential liability associated with Class 8
claims is difficult to determine. In connection with agreeing to the Reorganization Plan, the various constituencies independently analyzed the claims and determined that the total payment on the
Class 8 general unsecured claims was likely to be between $49.0 million and $65.0 million.

Since
August 2003, we have been spending substantial time and money on the process of analyzing and, as appropriate, objecting to claims that we believe are without merit or
asserted for an inflated amount. We have negotiated settlements to various claims. This process may continue for several months. Based on the Reorganization Plan, any claims that we do not dispute or
that are determined to be valid by the Bankruptcy Court after we have made an objection may be paid under one of two options, at the creditor's election: We may be required either to pay 70% of the
allowed amount of the claim, with 60% being paid in cash on the date of settlement and the remaining 10% paid out over a

43

four-year
period in equal annual installments, or we may be required to pay 100% of the allowed amount of the claim, with 20% being paid in cash on the date of settlement and the remaining
80% being paid out over a four-year period in equal annual installments. We have also agreed with some creditors to pay 65% of the allowed amount of the claim in cash on the date of
settlement and nothing more.

We
began paying claims on the effective date of the Reorganization Plan and continue to pay as claims are settled, liquidated, or otherwise resolved. Through February 28, 2005, we
have paid, settled or otherwise disposed of Class 8 claims with an original aggregate face amount of approximately $380.6 million (including approximately $133.0 million of
duplicate, erroneous and otherwise invalid claims). To resolve these claims we have paid or agreed to pay over time approximately $45.0 million in cash. As of February 28, 2005, there
were general unsecured claims asserted in the original aggregate face amount of approximately $3.5 million remaining to be resolved. There were also approximately $1.7 million in
priority and administrative claims remaining to be resolved. These remaining general unsecured and other claims include claims that are asserted in a minimum amount or an unliquidated amount, and the
claims can be amended to higher amounts. Prior claim determinations are also subject
to appeal. Because the total liability associated with the claims depends upon the final amounts asserted by claimants, the outcome of claims classification hearings by the Bankruptcy Court, claims
objections, settlement negotiations, and potential litigation and appeals, the total amount to be paid by us is uncertain. We believe that we have set aside adequate reserves for payments of the
Class 8 claims as well as the priority and administrative claims and that the aggregate payment should fall within and possibly below the range of previously estimated payments of between
$49.0 million and $65.0 million, determined by the various constituencies in the bankruptcy proceedings. However, payments in excess of the reserved amounts could have an adverse effect
on our liquidity and financial condition. Because claims remain in dispute, we are unable to predict the final payment amount or the period over which payments would be made.

THE REORGANIZATION PLAN

For a discussion of the terms of the Reorganization Plan confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court on July 18, 2003, please refer to the information under the
caption "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsOur Plan of Reorganization" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
period ended March 31, 2004.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

On December 16, 2004 the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R, "Share-Based Payment," (SFAS 123R) requiring that
the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be measured and recognized in the financial statements using the fair value of the awards. This statement eliminates the alternative
to use Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25's, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" intrinsic value method of accounting that was provided in Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." Under APB Opinion No. 25, issuing stock options to employees generally resulted in recognition of no compensation cost.
SFAS 123R requires entities to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of those awards (with
limited exceptions). SFAS 123R covers a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options, restricted share plans, performance based awards and employee share purchase
plans. SFAS 123R replaces Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees." SFAS 123R is effective as of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005 and provides for alternative transition methods including
prospective and retrospective applications. The Company is required to adopt SFAS 123R on July 1, 2005. The

44

---



Company
is currently assessing the impact of SFAS 123R on its compensation strategies and financial statements and determining which transition alternative it will elect. The Company believes
the adoption of SFAS 123R may have a material effect on its operating results if current compensation strategies are continued.

RISK FACTORS

There are significant risk factors that currently affect or may affect our business, financial condition or operating results. As of the date of this report we
are not current in filing our periodic reports with the SEC. Readers should carefully consider these factors before making an investment decision with respect to our common stock. These risk factors
are detailed beginning on page 62 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2004.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As of September 30, 2004, there were no material changes to the information previously reported under Item 7A in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As required by paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of the last day of the period covered by this
report, management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were
not effective as of that date primarily as a result of the ineffectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.

MANAGEMENT'S QUARTERLY REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Our management acknowledges its responsibility for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting that includes effective
accounting policies and procedures. Our progress in establishing such adequate internal controls is described below under the caption "Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting."

Under
the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our internal
control over financial reporting based on the framework inInternal ControlIntegrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

Our
management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of the end of the
fiscal period covered by this report. Their conclusion was based on a number of factors, including:

Readers
should carefully review the information set forth under the caption "Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting" included in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004; the information set forth under the caption "Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting" included in our
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2004, filed February 15, 2005, and the information set forth below under "Changes in Internal Control Over
Financial Reporting."

In
view of the fact that the financial information presented in this report was prepared in the absence of effective internal controls over financial reporting, we devoted a significant
amount of time and resources to the analysis of the financial statements contained in this report. In particular, we reviewed all significant account balances and transactions reflected in the
financial statements contained in this report and otherwise analyzed the transactions underlying our financial statements to verify the accuracy of the financial statements contained in this report.

Nevertheless,
there can be no assurance that either this review process or our existing disclosure controls and procedures will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud, if any, or
result in accurate and reliable disclosure. A control system can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations
in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if
any, have been detected. Additionally, judgments in decision-making can be faulty and breakdowns in internal controls can occur because of simple errors or mistakes that are not detected on a timely
basis.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Certain Internal Control Events During the Second Quarter of Fiscal 2005

During the second quarter of fiscal 2005, our senior management continued efforts to remedy the significant deficiencies, including material weaknesses, in our
internal controls over financial reporting. We continued our employee training program on the principles of revenue recognition in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Internal Control Assessment as of the Filing Date of This Report

We are including information in this report about material changes to identified internal control weaknesses over financial reporting for
the period subsequent to December 20, 2004, which we discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the 2004 fiscal year ended March 31, 2004, filed on
December 20, 2004, in order to provide readers with a current understanding of the identified weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. These internal control weaknesses are
being addressed as part of our Sarbanes-Oxley compliance project, as more fully discussed below. Readers should carefully review the discussion of the deficiencies and material changes in our internal
control over financial reporting for the period prior to December 20, 2004 set forth under the caption "Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting" in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004; and set forth under the caption "Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting" in our Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2004, filed February 15, 2005.

Accounting Policies and Procedures

Previously, our accounting policies and procedures had not been adequately documented, nor were our accounting procedures comprehensive in scope. We have now
substantially completed the documentation of a comprehensive set of policies and procedures that we believe remedy the deficiencies in the design of our internal controls over financial reporting. We
are in the process of implementing them throughout the company.

Period-End Accounting Closing Procedure

We have recently established a number of closing procedures to improve the timeliness of conducting quarterly closings and performing account reconciliations in
connection with the preparation of our financial statements and have increased our staff in the accounting organization to support these procedures. Documentation of these closing procedures is
substantially complete, and we are in the process of implementing them. We will not be able to prepare financial statements on a timely basis until these closing procedures are fully implemented and
we have filed our financial statements for prior periods.

Account Reconciliation

Historically, we had not completed the documentation and implementation of timely processes to reconcile our general ledger accounts to the detailed subsidiary
ledgers and address reconciling items on a timely basis. We have now established and documented procedures for reconciling the general ledger accounts to the detailed subsidiary ledgers and are
currently in the process of implementing them as part of our closing processes.

Financial Reporting System

Historically, our automated financial reporting systems have been overly complex, poorly integrated and inconsistently implemented. As a result, preparation of
financial statements has required and continues to require multiple steps, including manual reconciliation of most accounts, and extensive management review. Many of our critical systems necessary to
generate revenue information remain off-line and are not integrated with our standard accounting system, PeopleSoft. In fiscal 2004, we upgraded our PeopleSoft system, enabling us to
operate our major financial operations on a common platform worldwide, and we have updated a number of billing and accounts receivable processes. We intend to prioritize and implement additional
planned systems improvements in this area,
which will be designed to mitigate the risk of inaccurate or incomplete information resulting from using manual processes and complex financial reporting systems.

Sales Order Processing System

Historically, our sales order processing system has not been integrated and has required that transaction information be recorded by several individuals and
entered into several databases. We intend to improve this system. Our financial management has had to devote substantial time to checking sales information to ensure that revenue information is
correct. We have evaluated improvements to the systems for recording our sales transactions and a new, simplified process and a standardized sales order configuration and pricing tool has been
implemented worldwide, including a standard product list. The use of this tool will reduce the duplication of information and improve the flow of information from our sales order processing staff to
our revenue recognition staff. We continue to work on our processes and systems to create a standardized order management process for sales of maintenance and professional services.

47

---



Assembly of Information Supporting Revenue Recognition

We have documented and implemented a process for supporting our revenue recognition decisions that we believe adequately addresses the material risks associated
with improper or insufficient information being available to properly record revenue. Historically, we did not have a formal practice of fully documenting the support for our revenue recognition
decisions at the time revenue contracts were executed. The lack of a formal process for compiling and documenting such information at the time of sale caused and will continue to cause delays in the
preparation of financial results for prior periods because added resources are required to assemble and reevaluate such information prior to publishing our financial statements.

Management Reporting and Analysis

Financial reports have not been widely disseminated within the organization, nor have they been prepared on a timely basis. Our corporate subsidiary structure is
unnecessarily complex, and the historical consolidation process has not been properly documented, both of which make management reporting and analysis difficult to prepare on a timely basis. We
continue to simplify our corporate structure. We are in the process of formalizing and documenting our consolidation and budget
reporting processes and believe that the simplification of the business structure will improve the timeliness and quality of management reporting.

Staffing and Training of Finance Personnel

Historically, turnover among finance personnel was substantial, and we were understaffed. As a result of certain changes in financial management and the addition
of financial staff during fiscal 2005, we believe we are adequately staffed in our finance organization. We are in the process of training our staff on a number of new policies and procedures recently
developed as part of our Sarbanes-Oxley Compliance project, which is more fully discussed below.

Segregation of Duties/Responsibilities and Management Review

Historically, our accounting personnel have been responsible for posting and reconciling accounts under their control without timely review by an independent
reviewer. In connection with the documentation of our policies and procedures, we analyzed segregation of duties, including management review and the assignment of appropriate levels of
user-access to certain applications. These procedures are intended to ensure that the appropriate management personnel review reconciliations and other financial information.

Contract Management

There have been deficiencies in our customer contract management processes. We have established some signature procedures and have centralized certain contract
management functions and have established more formal policies and procedures in this area. We are also in the processes of formalizing a consistent and uniform signature authority and approval policy
worldwide, as well as notification, security and retention requirements.

Sarbanes-Oxley Compliance

We have undertaken a project specifically focusing on the Company's internal controls and procedures, including complying with the requirements of the rules
implementing Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and adopting processes to facilitate our independent auditors' future

48

testing
of our internal controls with regards to their attestation as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. We have categorized the project into the following phases:

Risk Assessment.We believe this has been completed in all material respects.

Documentation.We believe this has been completed in all material respects.

Remediation.Although we have developed an initial set of remediations to correct identified design deficiencies in our
internal controls, we anticipate that we will have to reassess them as part of the Internal and External Testing phases of the project.

Internal and External Testing.We have substantially completed internal testing of our significant policies, processes,
procedures and controls to assess their effectiveness and are in the process of compiling and evaluating the test results. Once we have evaluated this internal testing, management will be in a
position to determine whether our internal controls over financial reporting are operating effectively. Next, we expect that our independent auditors will perform their own tests of our internal
controls over financial reporting as well as assess management's assertions regarding these controls.

Given
the number of control deficiencies that we have identified and the limited amount of time to complete the remediation and testing processes as well as to assess the internal
controls for operating effectiveness, we believe it likely that we will not be able to conclude that all of our internal controls over financial reporting are effective as of March 31, 2005.
Even if management were able to reach such a conclusion, it is likely we will not have sufficiently completed our remediation and internal testing efforts with sufficient time to allow our independent
registered public accounting firm an adequate period to observe the effectiveness of our remediation efforts in order to conclude as to the effectiveness of our internal controls. Further, even if our
independent registered public accounting firm has sufficient time to perform their attestation for purposes of rendering an opinion under Sarbanes Oxley, some of the internal controls we implemented
were not operating effectively as of March 31, 2005.

PART IIOTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Federal Government Investigations

In June and July 2003, we entered into an agreement to settle a civil action brought against us by the SEC. Because we are not current in our reporting
obligations to the SEC, we are not in compliance with the provision of the settlement requiring that we not violate federal securities laws. A U.S. Department of Justice investigation of Peregrine
remains open and we believe the SEC and the DOJ are continuing their investigations of a number of individuals in connection with our past accounting irregularities. We are not aware of any current
employee being the subject of a government investigation. While we remain in discussions with the SEC, and are fully cooperating with the SEC and the DOJ in their investigations, it is possible that
the SEC could bring a further civil action against Peregrine or that the DOJ could bring criminal charges against Peregrine, which could have an adverse effect on our reputation among existing and
potential customers as well as an adverse effect on our revenue and could damage employee morale.

General Unsecured Claims; Microsoft Corporation, MSLI, GP Claims

Approximately 1,200 claims were filed against us based on events that took place prior to our bankruptcy filing. The original aggregate face amount of the general
unsecured claims plus the amounts we scheduled for payment without a claim asserted against us totaled approximately $384.1 million. After eliminating duplicate claims, claims filed in error,
or claims that were invalid for some other reason, we were left with approximately 500 general unsecured claims totaling approximately
$251.1 million. As of February 28, 2005, there were general unsecured claims asserted in the original aggregate face amount of approximately $3.5 million, and priority and
administrative claims of approximately $1.7 million remaining to be resolved. For more information regarding these unsecured claims, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Conditions and Results of OperationsLiquidity and Capital ResourcesBankruptcy Claims," beginning on page 43 of this report.

One
of the more significant unsecured claims was asserted by Microsoft Corporation and its MSLI, GP affiliate (collectively, Microsoft), for alleged unauthorized and unlicensed use of
their software. Microsoft filed (i) a proof of claim in December 2002 seeking at least $3.0 million related to our use of Microsoft products in the period prior to the bankruptcy
filing, (ii) an adversary complaint in January 2003 seeking monetary damages in an unspecified amount as well as injunctive relief and, (iii) an administrative claim in
September 2003 seeking monetary damages in an unspecified amount related to the period after our bankruptcy filing. We agreed with Microsoft that all of its claims and contentions should be
decided in the context of the adversary complaint filed in the Bankruptcy Court. In March 2003, we filed an answer to Microsoft's adversary complaint denying the material allegations and
raising affirmative defenses. Between October 2003 and June 2004, we engaged in settlement negotiations with Microsoft. In November 2003, we entered into a settlement agreement
with Microsoft that resolved the adversary complaint pursuant to which Microsoft dismissed the adversary complaint with prejudice and we granted Microsoft an allowed administrative claim and
Class 8 claim under the Reorganization Plan. All payments required under the settlement agreement had previously been reserved as liabilities subject to compromise in the consolidated balance
sheet.

Litigation Regarding the Latham Report

To assist the SEC in its investigation, in August 2002 we provided to the SEC, pursuant to a confidentiality agreement, an extensive report and supporting
materials containing the preliminary findings and conclusions of our outside counsel, Latham & Watkins, regarding its investigation into, among other things, our accounting irregularities (the
Latham Report). After our bankruptcy filing in September 2002, the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors filed a motion to appoint a trustee

50

---



and,
as an exhibit to their motion, filed a copy of the Latham Report under seal. Thereafter, a party in interest, Copley Press, Inc., which owns theSan Diego Union
Tribune, petitioned the Bankruptcy Court to unseal the pleadings and other documents filed under seal, including the Latham Report. We filed a motion to have certain filings
unsealed in whole or in part and to have redacted certain portions of some unsealed filings to protect third parties' privacy rights, to protect confidential information, and for other valid reasons.
However, we opposed the unsealing of the Latham Report. Among other things, we argued that the Latham Report was intended as a preliminary report and thus as a starting point for the government
investigations, and that it contained confidential commercial information. At the hearing on Copley's motion, the Bankruptcy Court held that the Latham Report had been improperly filed, and struck it
from the record. Copley appealed the Bankruptcy Court's decision to the United States District Court for the district of Delaware. On July 12, 2004, the District Court issued a decision
reversing the Bankruptcy Court's decision and ordering the Bankruptcy Court to have the Latham Report returned to the record, under seal, and to engage in an access analysis to determine what portions
of the Latham Report, if any, should be unsealed. We have appealed the District Court's decision to the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. Our appeal remains pending and we are in
discussions with Copley to attempt to reach agreement on what portions of the Latham Report should be unsealed.

The
Latham Report also has been filed in court, under provisional seal, by one of our former directors, John J. Moores, in connection with two lawsuits pending against him and
others (not including Peregrine) in San Diego. One action was filed as a class action on behalf of former Peregrine shareholders under the federal securities laws and is currently pending in the U.S.
District Court for the Southern District of California (the Federal Securities Action). The other action was filed by the Peregrine Litigation Trustee as successor to certain rights and causes of
action of Peregrine under the Reorganization Plan, and is pending in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of San Diego (the Litigation Trustee Action). Mr. Moores is a
defendant in both actions and has filed the Latham Report, under temporary seal, in both actions in connection with motions to dismiss the complaints against him. We have filed motions in both cases
to have the Latham Report stricken from the record or, as an alternative, to have the Latham Report, or portions of it, permanently sealed. Our motion in the Litigation Trustee Action is scheduled to
be heard in April 2005. In the Federal Securities Action, on February 2, 2005 the court ruled that it will not consider the Latham Report in ruling on Mr. Moores' pending motion
to dismiss the complaint. The Latham Report will not be stricken, but will remain under seal and, on this basis, our motion to intervene, strike or reconsider was denied as moot.

In
the criminal actions against former Peregrine employees and others pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California, a protective order was entered on
February 28, 2005 to provide limited protection for the confidential information of non-parties, such as the Latham Report and other Peregrine confidential information.

Luddy v. Peregrine

In May 2004, Frederic Luddy, our former chief technology officer, filed a complaint against us in the Court of Chancery for the State of Delaware seeking
advancement of certain legal fees and expenses. Mr. Luddy is a defendant in the Litigation Trustee Action and the Federal Securities Action, which seek to recover monetary damages from
Mr. Luddy based on events that transpired before Peregrine filed for bankruptcy law protection. Mr. Luddy's complaint alleged that Peregrine is required to advance or reimburse him for
his defense expenses in connection with the Federal Securities Action and the Litigation Trustee Action. His complaint also alleges that, pursuant to a paragraph of the Bankruptcy Court's order
confirming our Reorganization Plan, his indemnity claim can be pursued in state court. In June 2004, we removed Mr. Luddy's complaint from Delaware state court to the Bankruptcy Court.
We also filed a motion in Bankruptcy Court to dismiss the complaint on the basis, among other things, that Mr. Luddy failed to file any proof of claim before the Bankruptcy Court and

51

---



that
his claim is barred by the discharge injunction entered in connection with the Bankruptcy Court's approval of our Reorganization Plan. On August 9, 2004, Mr. Luddy filed a motion in
Bankruptcy Court seeking to voluntarily dismiss his complaint, without prejudice, and on the same day filed a new complaint in the Delaware Court of Chancery, seeking the same relief as in his prior
complaint. We removed Mr. Luddy's new complaint to the Bankruptcy Court and filed a new motion to dismiss his complaint. Mr. Luddy, in turn, filed a motion to remand the case to state
court. On November 10, 2004, the Bankruptcy Court denied Mr. Luddy's motion for remand and found that it had jurisdiction to consider the complaint. Also on November 10, 2004, the
Bankruptcy Court granted in part and denied in part our motion to dismiss, without prejudice to the company's right to renew the motion later after discovery and formal fact finding. On
February 23, 2005, Mr. Luddy filed an amended complaint, which we answered on March 15, 2005. Discovery is scheduled to be completed by May 2005, but no trial date has been set.
We believe Mr. Luddy's claims are without merit and we intend to vigorously defend against them. While the outcome is not currently determinable, in the opinion of management the matter will
not materially affect our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Other Litigation

We are also involved in legal proceedings, claims, and litigation arising from the ordinary course of business. Although the ultimate results of these legal
proceedings, claims and litigation are not currently determinable, in the opinion of management these matters will not materially affect our financial position, results of operation or liquidity.
