SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

and reports of changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC"). Such persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company
with copies of all Section 16(a) forms filed by such persons.

   Based solely on the Company's review of such forms furnished to the Company
and written representations from certain reporting persons, the Company believes
that all filing requirements applicable to the Company's executive officers,
directors and more than 10% stockholders were complied with during fiscal 1999.

(1)   Generally, options granted in 1999 under the Amended and Restated 1990
      Stock Option Plan vest at the rate of 1/4th on the first anniversary of
      the date of grant and 1/48th per month thereafter for each full month of
      the continued employment of the option holder.

(2)   The total number of shares subject to options granted to employees in
      fiscal 1999 was 2,641,500, which number includes options granted to
      employee directors, but excludes options granted to nonemployee directors
      and consultants.

(3)   All options were granted at an exercise price equal to the fair market
      value of the Common Stock on the date of grant.

(4)   Potential gains are net of exercise price, but before taxes associated
      with the exercise. These amounts represent certain hypothetical gains
      based on assumed rates of appreciation, based on the Securities and
      Exchange Commission's rules, and do not represent the Company's estimate
      or projection of future Common Stock prices. Actual gains, if any, on
      stock option exercises are dependent on the future performance of the
      Company, overall market conditions and the continued employment of the
      option holders through the vesting period. The amounts reflected in this
      table may not be achieved.

(5)   Options granted to these Named Executive Officers under the Amended and
      Restated 1990 Stock Option Plan vest at the rate of 1/24th per month for
      each full month of the continued employment of the option holder,
      commencing March 12, 1999.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

   Each eligible outside director, who is not an employee of the Company or of
any parent or subsidiary corporation of the Company and was a director at time
of disbursement was entitled to receive the following amounts of cash
compensation for his or her services as a director of the Company: (i) $10,000
per year, payable on the last day of the Company's fiscal year, and (ii) $1,000
or $500 for each regular or special meeting attended by the eligible outside
director in person or by telephone, respectively (the "Directors Compensation
Plan"). In addition, each eligible outside director was entitled to
reimbursement of travel expenses reasonably incurred by him or her in connection
with attending any regular or special meeting of the Board of Directors.
Furthermore, the 1994 Outside Directors Stock Option Plan (the "Directors Stock
Option Plan") provides for automatic initial and annual grants of nonqualified
stock options to directors of the Company who are not employees of the Company
or of any affiliated corporation. For purposes of the foregoing, any
non-employee director will be ineligible to participate either in the Directors
Compensation Plan or in the Directors Stock Option Plan if the director's
employer is a stockholder of the Company or an affiliated corporation of a
stockholder of the Company, or if the director's employer holds a technology
license from the Company or is an affiliated corporation of such license holder.
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999, each of Messrs. Kalogris, Knell,
Pieper and Strigl and Ms. Swenson received under the Directors Stock Option Plan
an annual option grant for 10,000 shares of Common Stock. Additionally, during
1999 Mr. Knell received an individual stock option grant for 25,000 shares
outside of the Directors Stock Option Plan. Mr. Huber is ineligible to
participate under both the Directors Compensation Plan and the Directors Stock
Option Plan.


EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS AND TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT AND CHANGE-IN-CONTROL
ARRANGEMENTS

    In September 1996, the Company entered into an employment agreement with
Steven Markman commencing September 19, 1996. The employment agreement was
amended in December 1997 and in October 1999 (together with the employment
agreement, the "Employment Agreement"). The Employment Agreement provides that
Dr. Markman serve as the Company's Chairman of the Board of Directors, President
and Chief Executive Officer for an annual salary of $300,000, subject to annual
review by the Board of Directors, and during the first twelve months of his
employment, a guaranteed bonus of not less than twenty percent (20%) of his
then-current salary. The Employment Agreement further provides that Dr. Markman
will be eligible to receive an annual bonus and that his target eligibility will
be 80% of his base rate of pay. In accordance with the Employment Agreement, the
Company granted



                                       6
<PAGE>   7
Dr. Markman options for 750,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock. In
addition, as further required by his Employment Agreement, the Company granted
Dr. Markman the right to purchase up to 135,000 restricted shares of the
Company's Common Stock at a price of $0.10 per share. Dr. Markman exercised this
right in March 1997. 67,500 of the restricted shares vested in September 1997
and the remaining 67,500 shares vested in September 1998. As permitted under the
Employment Agreement, Dr. Markman surrendered 22,562 and 23,584 shares of Common
Stock of the Company in September 1997 and September 1998, respectively, in
satisfaction of the income and employment tax withholding obligations arising
upon the vesting of the restricted shares. Either party may terminate the
Employment Agreement at any time, provided that, if prior to September 19, 2000,
the Company terminates Dr. Markman's employment other than for "cause" (and not
as a result of his death or "disability" (as defined in the agreement)) or Dr.
Markman resigns for "good reason" (as defined in the agreement), then (i) Dr.
Markman will be entitled to receive his final salary rate until September 19,
2000, provided such period of salary continuance will not be less than one year
or more than two years, as well as any bonus he would otherwise have earned in
the year of his termination, and (ii) all restricted stock and all stock options
previously granted to Dr. Markman by the Company will continue to vest during
the period of salary continuance, and such stock options will remain exercisable
for a period of 18 months following the later of the date Dr. Markman is
terminated as the Company's Chief Executive Officer or the date of such option
vesting. If Dr. Markman's employment is terminated by the Company without cause
or if Dr. Markman resigns for good reason during the period beginning 30 days
prior to the first public announcement that the Company has entered into an
agreement that results in a change in control (as defined in the agreement) and
ending one year following the change in control, then Dr. Markman is entitled to
the same benefits described in the preceding sentence, except that the period of
salary continuance shall be no less than two years and except that all of his
unvested outstanding stock options and restricted stock will immediately vest.

   In August 1997, the Company entered into a letter agreement with Linda A.
Hayes. The employment letter provides that Ms. Hayes serve as the Company's Vice
President, Marketing, for an annual salary of $180,000. The agreement also
provides that Ms. Hayes is eligible to participate in the Company's bonus plan,
with an initial target eligibility of 36% of her base pay. The bonus for the
second half of 1997 and first half of 1998 was guaranteed in the amount of
$64,800. In accordance with her letter agreement, the Company granted Ms. Hayes
options for 130,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock, twenty percent of
which vested 90 days following her date of employment. Upon a "transfer of
control" (as defined in the Company's standard form of stock option agreement),
all of the shares subject to this option will become fully vested and
exercisable as of the date ten days prior to the date of the transfer of
control.

   In February 1999, the Company entered into a retention agreement with James
P. McCormick. The agreement provided that Mr. McCormick serve as the Company's
Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer through August 19, 1999.
Under the agreement, upon the occurrence of a performance milestone, a total of
60,000 unvested shares subject to certain outstanding options vested in full. In
addition, as of August 19, 1999, an additional 60,834 unvested shares subject to
certain outstanding options vested, and Mr. McCormick received a retention bonus
in an amount equal to $200,000, net of any applicable federal and state income
taxes and any applicable employment taxes. In connection with Mr. McCormick's
resignation from the Company in October 1999, the Company agreed to pay him an
additional retention bonus equal to a pro rata share of his 1999 bonus under the
Employee Incentive Bonus Plan at 100% of target.

   In February 1999, the Company entered into a retention agreement with Kevin
J. Surace. The agreement provides that Mr. Surace serve as the Company's
Executive Vice President of Business Development and Strategy. The agreement was
amended by a letter agreement dated May 24, 1999, whereby Mr. Surace resigned as
an executive officer of the Company, effective May 17, 1999 and assumed a
part-time position with the Company as Advisor, Business Development and
Strategy, effective August 7, 1999. Under the agreement, as amended, upon the
occurrence of a performance milestone, a total of 60,000 unvested shares subject
to certain outstanding options vested in full. Also pursuant to the agreement,
as amended, on August 7, 1999 an additional 48,125 unvested shares subject to
certain outstanding options vested, and Mr. Surace received a retention bonus in
an amount equal to $200,000, net of any applicable federal and state income
taxes and any applicable employment taxes. The agreement, as amended, provides
that from May 17, 1999 through May 5, 2000, Mr. Surace will be compensated at
his base rate of pay in effect as of May 17, 1999, less applicable taxes, and
will be eligible to participate in the Company's benefit programs, but will not
be eligible to participate in the Employee Incentive Bonus Plan for 1999 or
thereafter, or the Company's life, accident and long-term disability insurance
programs or to accrue paid time off benefits. The agreement, as amended, further
provides for payment of a fee in the amount of 1% of the consideration received
by the Company or its stockholders in the event the Company concludes a private
placement of the Company's equity securities, a sale, merger, consolidation or
other business combination or a joint venture with a partner actively engaged by
Mr. Surace in significant discussions on or before May 5, 2000.

   In October 1999, the Company entered into a letter agreement with Rose M.
Marcario. The agreement provides that Ms. Marcario serve as the Company's Vice
President, Finance and Administration, and Chief Financial Officer for an annual
salary of $250,000 and



                                       7
<PAGE>   8
an annual bonus of up to 50% of her base pay. Ms. Marcario also received a
one-time sign-on bonus of $35,000 and relocation expenses in an amount up to
$35,000 under the letter agreement. In accordance with the letter agreement, the
Company granted Ms. Marcario options to purchase 350,000 shares of the Company's
Common Stock. If the Company terminates Ms. Marcario's employment prior to the
end of her first twelve months of service with the Company for any reason (other
than just cause, or upon her death, disability or voluntary resignation), Ms.
Marcario will receive her base salary for the remaining balance of the
twelve-month period, but not for less than six months from the date of her
termination.

   In April 1998, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to adopt a
Change of Control Plan (the "Plan") for all of its employees, including the
executive officers other than Dr. Markman, which provides for the payment of
certain severance benefits in the event of a change of control in the beneficial
ownership of the Company (as defined in the Plan). The Plan provides that in the
event of a change of control in which the employees' stock options are not
assumed or substituted for by the acquiring corporation, such options will
become fully vested and exercisable as of a date prior to the change of control.
In addition, the Plan provides that severance benefits will be payable to the
employees upon the occurrence of both of the following: (1) a change of control
of the Company, and (2) within twelve months after the change of control, such
individual's employment is involuntarily terminated by the Company other than
for "cause" or such individual terminates his or her employment for "good
reason" (as those terms are defined in the Plan). Upon the occurrence of the
events described in the preceding sentence, each executive officer other than
Dr. Markman will be entitled to receive the following benefits: (a) a lump sum
cash payment equal to the sum of (i) his or her then-effective annual base
salary, plus (ii) 100% of his or her bonus at the "on-target" level for the year
in which the termination occurs, and (b) full accelerated vesting of any options
to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock.

   In September 1999, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors
authorized payment of a retention bonus to each employee of the Company, other
than Messrs. McCormick and Surace and the Chief Executive Officer, equivalent to
one month's base salary, less applicable withholding, payable January 14, 2000,
provided such employee was employed as of December 31, 1999, and an additional
month's base salary, less applicable withholding, payable April 7, 2000,
provided such employee was employed through March 31, 2000.

   In September 1999, the Compensation Committee authorized the Company to enter
into severance agreements with executives of the Company at the vice president
level as of that date, other than Mr. McCormick, providing for payment of six
(6) months of base salary in the event of involuntary termination other than for
cause. As of March 31, 2000, only Ms. Doyle, Ms. Hayes and Ms. Morera were
eligible for this benefit.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

   In November 1999, for consideration totaling $20.0 million, the Company
entered into a Development and License Agreement with General Motors
Corporation, by and through its OnStar Division ("General Motors"), together
with a Series G Preferred Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the "Stock
Purchase Agreement") pursuant to which General Motors purchased (i) 1,500 shares
of the Company's Series G Preferred Stock and (ii) a warrant (the "Warrant") to
purchase up to an additional 500 shares of Series G Preferred Stock. The Series
G Preferred Stock is convertible into 8,907,363 shares of Common Stock, subject
to adjustment in certain circumstances, or approximately 22% of the outstanding
Common Stock of the Company immediately after the transaction and approximately
18% of the outstanding Common Stock as of March 6, 2000. The Warrant is
exercisable for Series G Preferred Stock, which in turn is convertible into up
to 2,969,121 shares of Common Stock, subject to adjustment in certain
circumstances, or up to an additional approximately 7% of the outstanding Common
Stock of the Company immediately after the transaction and up to an additional
approximately 6% of the outstanding Common Stock as of March 6, 2000. Under a
letter agreement dated as of December 9, 1999, the closing date of the
transaction, General Motors agreed not to exercise or permit a transferee to
exercise the right to convert shares of the Series G Preferred Stock into shares
of the Company's Common Stock to the extent that the shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion would exceed 19.99% of the outstanding shares of the
Company's Common Stock as of December 9, 1999 unless the Company first obtains
(i) the approval of its stockholders or (ii) a written opinion of outside
counsel to the Company that stockholder approval of the issuance of the
Company's Common Stock (or securities convertible into Common Stock) in excess
of 19.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or voting power of the
Company as of December 9, 1999 is not required under applicable Nasdaq
regulations and NASD Rule 4460(i). General Motors also agreed not to exercise or
allow a transferee to exercise the Warrant unless the Company obtains (i) such
stockholder approval or (ii) such written opinion. The



                                       10
<PAGE>   11
Company must use its reasonable best efforts to obtain such stockholder approval
or such written opinion. If the Company fails to obtain the approval of its
stockholders or an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to General Motors,
then the Company must, at the absolute discretion of the Company, either (i) pay
to General Motors $7 million in cash, or (ii) pay to General Motors $3.5 million
in cash and credit $3.5 million against amounts then owed or next owing by
General Motors to the Company. In connection with the sale of Series G Preferred
Stock, General Motors was granted certain registration rights. General Motors
was also granted the right to elect one member of the Company's Board of
Directors, and in December 1999 appointed Chester A. Huber, Jr. to the Board of
Directors.

   In June 1998, the Company entered into an agreement with Brooks Fiber
Communications ("BFC") pursuant to which BFC provides telecommunications
services to the Company. Under the agreement, the Company paid an $8,000
installation fee and agreed to pay approximately $13,000 per month in usage fees
until June 2003. In March 1999, the Company entered into an agreement with
WorldCom Technologies, Inc. ("WTI") pursuant to which WTI will provide Internet
telecommunications services to the Company. Under the agreement, the Company
paid a $3,000 start-up fee, $6,000 per month for the first twelve months of the
two-year term, and $10,800 per month for the remaining twelve months of the
two-year term. BFC and WTI are wholly-owned subsidiaries of MCI WorldCom, Inc.
Philip D. Knell, a director of the Company, is President and General Manager of
Network MCI Conferencing.

   The Company has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its
officers and directors containing provisions that may require the Company, among
other things, to indemnify such officers and directors against certain
liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as officers or
directors (other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct of a culpable
nature), to advance their expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding
against them as to which they could be indemnified and to obtain directors' and
officers' insurance if available on reasonable terms. The Company maintains an
insurance policy covering officers and directors of the Company under which the
insurer has agreed to pay the amount of any claim made against the officers or
directors of the Company that such officers or directors may otherwise be
required to pay or for which the Company is required to indemnify such officers
and directors, subject to certain exclusions and conditions. The policy has a
coverage limit of $15,000,000.

                              REPORT OF MANAGEMENT

     Responsibility for the preparation, integrity and objectivity of the
financial information presented in this annual report rests with the management
of General Magic, Inc. (the "Company"). The accompanying consolidated financial
statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles, applying certain estimates and judgments as required.

     The Company maintains a system of internal accounting control designed to
be cost-effective while providing reasonable assurance that assets are
safeguarded and that transactions are executed in accordance with management's
authorization and are properly recorded in the financial records. Internal
control effectiveness is supported through careful selection and training of
personnel and quarterly financial reviews with the Company's senior management.
Management believes that the Company's internal controls provide reasonable
assurance that errors or irregularities that could be material to the
consolidated financial statements are prevented or would be detected within a
timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned
functions.

     KPMG LLP, independent auditors, are retained to express an opinion on the
Company's consolidated financial statements. Their opinion is based on
procedures believed by them to be sufficient to provide reasonable assurance
that the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement.

     The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is composed solely of
nonemployee directors, and is responsible for recommending to the Board the
independent auditors firm to be retained for the coming year, subject to
stockholder approval. The Audit Committee meets periodically and privately with
the independent auditors and with the Company's management to review accounting,
auditing, internal control and financial reporting matters.

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of General Magic, Inc.:

     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of General
Magic, Inc. and subsidiary (a development stage enterprise) as of December 31,
1999 and 1998, and the related consolidated statements of operations,
stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the
three-year period ended December 31, 1999, and for the period from May 1, 1990
(inception) to December 31, 1999. These consolidated financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

     We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

     In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of General
Magic, Inc. and subsidiary (a development stage enterprise) as of December 31,
1999 and 1998, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each
of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1999, and for the
period from May 1, 1990 (inception) to December 31, 1999, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF THE COMPANY AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  The Company

     General Magic, Inc. is a voice applications service provider that enables
businesses to give their customers voice access to information and services,
whether provided through customer interaction centers, over telecommunications
networks or through the Internet. The Company develops and deploys its voice
applications on its magicTalk(TM) communications platform and offers hosting
services for those applications in its state-of-the-art network operations
center.

     General Magic, Inc. was incorporated in California in May 1990 and
reorganized as a Delaware corporation in February 1995. The Company continues to
be a development stage enterprise. These financial statements contain the
trademarks of General Magic and those of other companies. The Company has
generated minimal revenues to date and expects to incur significant losses
through 2000. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve or sustain
significant revenues or become cash flow positive or profitable at any time in
the future. The Company expects that its cash, cash equivalents, and short-term
investment balances as of December 31, 1999, along with cash expected to be
available under the Company's equity line of credit arrangement and other
financing arrangements, will be adequate to fund the Company's operations
through 2000.

     The Company is subject to all of the risks inherent in the establishment of
a new business enterprise. The Company must, among other things, secure adequate
financial and human resources to meet its requirements; achieve market
acceptance for its voice application services and products; establish and
maintain relationships with businesses with high volume customer interactions;
establish and maintain alliances with companies that offer technology solutions
for businesses with high volume customer interactions; respond effectively to
competitive developments; meet the challenges inherent in the timely development
and deployment of complex technologies; generate sufficient revenues from its
services to permit the Company to operate profitably; and protect its
intellectual property. Any failure to achieve these objectives could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and
financial condition.

  Basis of Presentation

     Effective January 1, 1999, the Company has reclassified the presentation of
its statement of operations to more accurately portray the operating costs of
providing voice-enabled services and to allow for better comparison with other
companies in the service industry. As a result, certain line items have been
added and expenses have been reclassified in prior periods to be consistent with
this new presentation. The following line items have been added:

     Service Revenue: Service revenue consists of all revenue from the Company's
Portico(TM) service and will include revenue from other voice-enabled services
as it is recognized.

     Network operations: Network operations expense consists of personnel and
related costs associated with running the network operations center and
providing customer support and billing, access costs associated with the
telephony and data network, and royalties paid to software and content
providers. Costs incurred prior to the commercial release of the Company's
Portico service are included principally in research and development.

     Depreciation and amortization: Depreciation and amortization expense
consists of all depreciation on property and equipment as well as amortization
of intangible assets from certain acquisitions.

                              GENERAL MAGIC, INC.
                        (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE ENTERPRISE)

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

  Principles of Consolidation

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

  Revenue Recognition

     Fees from customer-specific engineering and development projects are
recognized under the percentage-of-completion method based on either the
achievement and acceptance of milestones or the performance of services. Support
and maintenance fees are recognized ratably over the period the service or
maintenance is provided.

     Licensing revenue primarily represents revenue from license fees for the
Company's technologies and royalty revenue from original equipment manufacturer
("OEM") shipments of devices incorporating the Company's technologies. Other
revenue in 1998 consists of proceeds from sales of the DataRover handheld
communication device ("DataRover 840"), fees earned under customer-specific
support service contracts, and subscription fees for the Portico service. Other
revenue in 1997 consists of fees earned under customer-specific engineering,
maintenance and support services contracts.

     The Company recognizes nonrefundable, nonrecoupable license fees upon
delivery of its technology to its licensees when no continuing obligation for
the Company exists. Royalties associated with OEM licensees are recognized upon
shipment of the product incorporating the Company's technology to the OEM's
customers provided that the collection of the related receivable is deemed
probable. Royalties associated with potential OEM product returns are estimated
and provided for in the period of sale. Licensing revenue from network operators
is recognized as earned based upon usage and, in certain cases, based on
subscriber registration. Advance payments of licensing revenue and fees received
prior to revenue recognition are recorded as deferred revenue.

  Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments

     The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with original
remaining maturities of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be
cash equivalents. Cash equivalents consist primarily of commercial paper and
money market mutual funds.

     In connection with a previously resolved commitment, the Company had
$2,280,000 in restricted cash as of December 31, 1998.

     The Company has classified its investments as "available-for-sale."
Investments are recorded at fair value and unrealized gains and losses, if
material, are recorded as a component of comprehensive income. Interest income
is recorded using the effective interest rate, with amortization of associated
premium or discount included in "investment income." The cost of securities sold
is determined based upon the specific identification method.

  Property and Equipment

     Property and equipment are recorded at original cost less accumulated
depreciation. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line
method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, generally three
to five years. Assets recorded under capital leases are amortized on a
straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease terms or the estimated useful
lives of the respective assets.

                        (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE ENTERPRISE)

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

  Recoverability of Long-Lived Assets

     The Company reviews for the impairment of long-lived assets and certain
identifiable intangibles whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss
would be recognized when estimated future cash flows expected to result from the
use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than its carrying amount.
The loss would be measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the
assets exceeds the fair market value of the assets.

  Software Development Costs

     Development costs incurred in the research and development of new software
products are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been
established. Software development expenses incurred for product enhancements
after the product has reached technological feasibility have not been material
and, accordingly, also have been charged to operations as incurred. From
inception through December 31, 1999, no software development costs have been
capitalized.

  Income Taxes

     The Company provides for income taxes using the asset and liability method
under which provision for deferred income taxes is based on enacted tax laws and
rates applicable to the periods in which the taxes become payable.

  Net Loss Per Share

     Effective December 31, 1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," which requires dual
presentation of basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share. As the
Company has had net losses for all periods presented, basic and diluted loss per
share are equal. Outstanding convertible preferred stock, warrants, and options
could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future but have not
been included in the computation of diluted net loss per share as the impact
would have been antidilutive for the periods presented. The computation of
diluted loss per share does not include common stock issuable upon the exercise
of outstanding options or warrants or upon the conversion of outstanding
preferred stock. As of December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, there were 7,079,042,
7,315,000, and 4,991,000 options outstanding, respectively. As of December 31,
1999, there were warrants for the purchase of 4,084,748 shares of common stock
outstanding, 3,629,000 shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of
Series A preferred stock, 6,099,765 shares of common stock issuable upon the
conversion of Series D preferred stock, 1,576,316 shares of common stock
issuable upon the conversion of Series E preferred stock, 6,356,382 shares of
common stock issuable upon the conversion of Series F preferred stock, and
8,907,363 shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of Series G
preferred stock.

     Basic and diluted loss per share are computed by dividing loss available to
holders of common stock by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock
outstanding during the period.

  Comprehensive Income/Loss

     Effective January 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income." SFAS No. 130 requires disclosure of comprehensive loss in
interim periods and additional disclosures of the components of comprehensive
loss on an annual basis. Comprehensive loss includes all changes in equity
during a period except those resulting from investments by and distributions to
the Company's stockholders.

                        (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE ENTERPRISE)

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

There were no material differences between the Company's comprehensive loss and
net loss for the periods presented.

  Accounting Estimates

     The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Significant estimates of the Company relate to the computation and
classification of deferred revenue, including the accrual, if applicable, of
interest payable thereon.

  Advertising Costs

     Costs incurred for producing and publishing advertisements are expensed
when incurred. Advertising expense was $2,885,251, $1,946,000, and $118,000 for
1999, 1998, and 1997, respectively.

  Amortization of Intangibles

     Goodwill and other intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis over
periods ranging from two to five years.

  Stock-Based Compensation

     The Company has elected to continue to use the intrinsic value-based method
of Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees" as allowed under SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation," to account for all of its employee stock-based compensation
plans. The adoption of SFAS No. 123 did not have a material effect on the
Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

  New Pronouncements

     In March 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
issued Statement of Position ("SOP") 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer
Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use," which provides guidance on
accounting for the costs of computer software intended for internal use. SOP
98-1 was adopted by the Company effective for fiscal 1999 and did not have a
material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations.

     In December 1998, the AICPA issued SOP No. 98-9, "Modification of SOP No.
97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, with Respect to Certain Transactions." SOP
No. 98-9 requires recognition of revenue using the "residual method" in a
multiple element software arrangement when fair value does not exist for one or
more of the delivered elements in the arrangement. Under the "residual method,"
the total fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and recognized in
accordance with SOP No. 97-2. The Company will be required to implement SOP No.
98-9 for the year ending December 31, 2000. SOP No. 98-9 also extends the
deferral of the application of SOP No. 97-2 to certain other multiple-element
software arrangements through the Company's year ending December 31, 1999. The
Company does not expect the adoption of SOP No. 98-9 to have a material impact
on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

     In June 1999, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS
No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, Deferral
of the Effective Date of SFAS No. 133", which amends the effective date of SFAS
No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS
No. 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments and hedging

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

activities and requires the Company to recognize all derivatives as either
assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and measure them at fair value. Gains
and losses resulting from changes in fair value would be accounted for based on
the intended use of the derivative and whether it is designated and qualifies
for hedge accounting. The Company has not determined the impact that SFAS No.
133 will have on its financial statements and believes that such determination
will not be meaningful until closer to the date of the initial adoption.

NOTE 2: AGREEMENTS WITH STOCKHOLDERS

     In connection with the Company's initial strategy to promote its Magic Cap
and Telescript technologies, the Company entered into various contractual
arrangements with certain stockholders. Substantially all of the Company's
revenue from its May 1, 1990, inception was generated from such stockholders, or
their affiliates.

     Five companies, which became stockholders of the Company prior to 1993,
entered into license agreements to pay royalties for the Company's Magic Cap
technology. The agreements provided for the payment of up to $2,500,000 in
prepaid royalties by each licensee in the event the Company met certain
technology development milestones. These prepayments were to be offset at a rate
of $0.50 for every dollar of royalties payable by the licensees upon shipments
of products incorporating the Company's technology. If the prepayments were not
fully recouped by the fifth anniversary of the license agreements (November 30,
1997), the licensees were each entitled to demand repayment of the unrecouped
amount plus interest.

     As of December 31, 1998, three of the companies had demanded and received
payment of the unrecouped prepaid royalty. A fourth of these five Magic Cap
licensees, among other things, permitted the licensee to recoup 100% of any
royalties owed to the Company under a software modem license agreement against
the Magic Cap royalty prepayment, amended the Magic Cap license agreement to
provide for 100% recoupment of any royalties due thereunder, extended the date
for refund of unrecouped prepaid royalties to November 2, 1999, and provided
that no interest will be due upon any refund. During 1998, the Company
transferred this obligation to Altocom, Inc. in exchange for discontinuing a
certain revenue sharing agreement (see Note 5).

     In December 1999, the Company compromised the claim of the fifth licensee
for refund of a prepaid royalty, together with interest, totaling $2.3 million
in consideration of the issuance to the licensee of 267,559 shares of the
Company's common stock, and an agreement to pay a total of $1,250,000 in five
quarterly installments, commencing January 2000. As of December 31, 1999, $2.0
million of this was classified in accrued expenses and $250 thousand in other
long term liabilities.

     Additionally, in 1994 and 1995, the Company entered into Magic Cap
technology license agreements with three other stockholders. These license
agreements each provided for the payment of a $2,500,000 nonrefundable,
nonrecoupable license fee. The agreements also provided for the payment of up to
$2,500,000 in prepaid royalties, payable in installments upon the Company's
achievement of certain technology milestones. Failure to deliver the technology
milestones entitled each licensee to terminate its agreement and obtain a refund
of unrecouped prepaid royalties in two equal annual installments of principal,
plus interest from the date of termination, payable commencing one year
following termination of the agreement. During the fourth quarter of 1996, each
of the three licensees demanded delivery of the final milestone due under the
license agreements. The Company delivered the final milestone in January 1997.

     In June 1997, the Company reached a settlement agreement to resolve the
claims of, and terminate a license agreement with Mitsubishi Electric
Corporation (MELCO). In consideration therefor, the Company agreed to refund
unrecouped prepaid royalties of $1,500,000, waive further payments otherwise due
under the original agreement, and grant a royalty-free license to certain
software modem technology. The $1,500,000 refund was secured by a license in
certain of the Company's intellectual property, was non-interest bearing,

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

and was payable on or before August 17, 1999. The Company elected not to refund
the $1,500,000 unrecouped prepaid royalty to MELCO and, on August 18, 1999,
MELCO's license to certain of the Company's intellectual property became
effective and accordingly, the Company earned the revenue associated with the
license grant.

     In September 1997, the Company reached agreement with a second of the three
licensees providing for acceptance of the final milestone, subject to certain
conditions which were satisfied by the Company later that month. Pursuant to
this agreement, the Company waived payment of the final $500,000 installment of
the prepaid royalties and recognized $2,000,000 in licensing revenue. In October
1997, the Company reached agreement with the third licensee, which also provided
for acceptance of the final milestone. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company
waived payment of the final $500,000 installment of the prepaid royalties and
agreed to refund prepaid royalties not recouped by January 1, 2003, plus any
accrued interest, on or before December 31, 2003. As of December 31, 1999 the
remaining obligation of $2,000,000 was classified in other long term
liabilities. The Company does not expect the third licensee to develop or
manufacture additional products that incorporate the Company's Magic Cap
technology.

NOTE 4: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

  Concentrations of Credit Risk

     Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant
concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and
short-term investments. The Company invests its excess cash in U.S. government
securities and commercial paper. These investments typically bear minimal risk.
This diversification of risk is consistent with the Company's policy to ensure
safety of principal.

                        (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE ENTERPRISE)

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

     The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents and certain other financial
instruments with various financial institutions. These financial institutions
are located in the United States, and the Company's policy is designed to limit
exposure to any one institution. The Company's periodic evaluations of the
relative credit standing of these financial institutions are considered in the
Company's investment strategy.

  Fair Value of Financial Instruments

     For certain of the Company's financial instruments, including cash and cash
equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, other accrued liabilities,
and long-term debt, the carrying amounts approximate fair value.

NOTE 5: INVESTMENTS IN CONITA TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND ALTOCOM, INC.

     In January 1998, the Company discontinued operations of its South Carolina
office and entered into an agreement with Conita Technologies, Inc. ("Conita"),
a company founded by former employees of the South Carolina office. Under the
agreement, the Company obtained a 10% minority interest in Conita through the
purchase of preferred stock for a total of $758,000. The Company accounts for
its investment in Conita under the cost method.

     In 1997, the Company transferred certain technology and other assets of its
software modem technology group to AltoCom, Inc. ("AltoCom"). The Company
retained a minority interest in AltoCom and a share of its ongoing revenue
stream. In January 1998, the Company and AltoCom agreed to discontinue the
revenue sharing agreement in exchange for certain consideration, including the
assumption by AltoCom of a $2,186,000 obligation to one of the Company's legacy
partners. The Company recognized $2,446,000 in other income during the first
quarter of 1998 in connection with this transaction. In April 1998, the Company
sold its minority interest in AltoCom for a total of $2,495,000, and recognized
in other income a gain of $2,240,000 on the sale.

NOTE 6: DIVESTITURE OF THE DATAROVER DIVISION AND INVESTMENT IN DSI

     Effective October 1998, the Company divested its DataRover handheld
communications device division ("DataRover Division") in a transaction with
DataRover Mobile Systems, Inc., which has since changed its name to Icras, Inc.
("DSI"). Pursuant to the transaction, the Company contributed cash and certain
other assets of its DataRover Division totaling $3,361,000 in value to DSI. The
Company also licensed certain of its technologies to DSI. In consideration
therefor, the Company received non-voting, non-redeemable preferred stock and
49% of the outstanding common stock of DSI. The Company did not recognize any
gain or loss as a result of the divestiture of the DataRover Division, and
accounted for its investment in DSI under the modified equity method, which
required the Company to record 100% of the losses incurred by Icras. As of
September 30, 1999, the Company had written off its entire original investment
in DSI.

     In connection with the divestiture of the DataRover Division, approximately
30 employees of the Company became employees of DSI. The Company provided for
accelerated vesting of options to acquire 256,000 shares of the Company's common
stock held by such employees, and granted an additional 320,000 options to
acquire the Company's common stock to such employees. The newly granted options
will vest ratably at 1/24 per month over a two-year period. The Company recorded
compensation expense of $1,634,000 associated with the fair value of the
accelerated and newly granted options and severance paid pursuant to an
agreement with a Company executive. The compensation expense relating to the
options was determined using the Black-Scholes fair market valuation method. The
fair value attributable to the accelerated options was expensed in the fourth
quarter of 1998 while the fair value associated with the new grant will be
expensed over the two-year vesting period of the grant.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

     In March 1999, the Company purchased handheld communication units from Oki
Electric Industry Co., Ltd. ("Oki Electric") for DSI under an existing letter of
credit for a total of $2,179,000. DSI was obligated to reimburse the Company the
actual cost of such units, and its obligation was secured by all personal
property of DSI. Prior to the August 5, 1999, financing described below, the
total receivable from DSI, reflecting this and other obligations, was
$2,089,000.

     On August 5, 1999, in connection with a third party DSI financing
transaction, the Company exchanged all of its preferred stock and common stock
for Series AA convertible preferred stock. In connection with this transaction,
the Company also agreed to reduce the note receivable due from DSI to $500,000,
and released its security interest in all personal property of DSI other than
its DataRover 840 inventory. As a result of this transaction, the Company now
owns less than 20% of the outstanding common stock of DSI and will account for
this investment under the cost method. The Company's interest in DSI as of
December 31, 1999 is comprised of an investment of $1,589,000 and a note
receivable of $498,000, all classified as other non-current assets.

NOTE 7: ACQUISITION OF NETPHONIC COMMUNICATIONS, INC.

     In March 1998, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of common
and preferred stock of NetPhonic Communications, Inc. ("NetPhonic"), a
development stage enterprise, for a total consideration of $2,050,000,
consisting of $200,000 cash and 1,342,524 shares of the Company's common stock.
The Company's common stock was issued to NetPhonic shareholders of record as of
the date of the transaction. NetPhonic had developed voice browser software that
enabled touch-tone telephone access to Web content, upon which the Company has
recently received a patent. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase
method and, accordingly, the results of operations of NetPhonic have been
included in the Company's consolidated financial statements as of the date of
acquisition. The operations of NetPhonic were not material relative to the
Company's consolidated results of operations. The Company allocated the total
purchase price to acquired in-process research and development that had not yet
reached technological feasibility and had no alternative future use to the
Company. As a result, the Company recognized a charge of $2,050,000 for the
write-off of in-process research and development as of the date of the
acquisition. The value assigned to purchased in-process research and development
was determined by identifying the cost to develop the purchased technology into
a commercially viable feature of the Company's Portico service, estimating the
resulting net cash flows for this project, and discounting the net cash flows
back to their present value. The efforts to develop the purchased in-process
technology centered around the integration of the purchased touch-tone Web
access technology into the magicTalk platform utilized in the Portico service.
The estimated cost to be incurred to develop the purchased technology into a
commercially viable feature of the Portico service at the time of the
acquisition was estimated at approximately $2,330,000 in the aggregate through
the year 1999 ($845,000 in 1998 and $1,485,000 in 1999). The Company had
expected this effort to be completed by the end of 1999 and to benefit from the
effort beginning in the year 2000. In the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company
decided not to implement the technology purchased from NetPhonic into the
Portico service and suspended any additional development efforts with respect to
that technology.

NOTE 8: ACQUISITION OF NETALK, INCORPORATED

     In October 1998, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of
NETalk, Incorporated ("NETalk"), a development stage enterprise, for a total
consideration of $1,505,000, consisting of $100,000 in cash and 234,104 shares
of the Company's common stock. NETalk was engaged in the development of
applications providing users with advanced speech recognition tools to access
Web content over the telephone. The acquisition was accounted for under the
purchase method and, accordingly, the results of operations of NETalk have been
included in the Company's consolidated financial statements as of the date of
acquisition. The operations of NETalk were not material relative to the
Company's consolidated results of operations. Of

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

the total purchase price, $777,000 has been allocated to in-process research and
development while the remainder was allocated to certain intangible assets. The
purchased in-process technology represents the present value of the estimated
after-tax benefit after application of an attribution factor. The technology, as
of the acquisition date, had not reached technological feasibility. The cash
flow projections for revenues were based on estimates of relevant market sizes
and growth factors, expected industry trends, the anticipated nature and timing
of new product introductions by the Company and its competitors, individual
product sales cycles, and the estimated life of each product's underlying
technology. Estimated operating expenses and income taxes were deducted from
estimated revenue projections to arrive at estimated after-tax cash flows.
Projected operating expenses include cost of goods sold, marketing and selling
expenses, general and administrative expenses, and research and development,
including estimated costs to complete the technology and maintain the products
once they have been introduced into the market and are generating revenue. The
rates utilized to discount projected cash flows ranged from 30% to 40% for
in-process technologies and were based primarily on venture capital rates of
return and the weighted-average cost of capital for the Company at the time of
the acquisition. The in-process technology was expensed immediately, while the
intangible assets are being amortized over periods ranging from two to five
years. The intangible assets are included under "Other assets" on the balance
sheet.

NOTE 9: PREFERRED STOCK

     In February 1998, the Company entered into an agreement with Microsoft
Corp. ("Microsoft") for the sale of 50,000 shares of Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock and the license of certain of the Company's technology. The
aggregate consideration for the sale of Series A preferred stock was $4,500,000.
Series A preferred stock is eligible to vote with common stock on an "as if
converted" basis. Each share of Series A preferred stock is entitled to receive,
if and when the Company's Board of Directors declares a dividend payable on
common stock, a dividend equal to the dividend per share of common stock on an
"as if converted" basis. Series A preferred stock dividends are payable in
preference to any dividends on the Company's common stock and are
non-cumulative. The liquidation preference of each share of Series A preferred
stock is $90 plus any declared but unpaid dividends. Subject to adjustment in
certain circumstances, each share of Series A preferred stock is convertible
into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion rate obtained by
dividing $90 by the applicable conversion value which, as of December 31, 1999,
was $1.24. As of December 31, 1999, 3,629,000 shares of the Company's common
stock were issuable upon conversion of the Series A preferred stock.

     In March 1998, the Company entered into a financing transaction with a
group of private investors that provided $5,000,000 in cash to the Company from
the sale of 5,000 shares of its 5 1/2% Cumulative Convertible Series B Preferred
Stock. As part of the financing transaction, the Company issued warrants to
acquire 320,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.38 per share.
The warrants have a five-year term and are immediately exercisable. In June
1998, for an aggregate purchase price of $2,000,000, certain holders of the
Company's Series B preferred stock exercised their right to purchase 2,000
additional shares of Series B preferred stock and warrants to acquire an
additional 160,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of
$18.75 per share. As of December 31, 1999, no shares of Series B preferred stock
were outstanding, and a total of 528,188 shares of common stock were issuable
upon the exercise of the associated warrants.

     In June 1998, the Company entered into a financing transaction with a group
of private investors that provided $30,000,000 in cash to the Company from the
sale of 3,000 shares of its Series C Convertible Preferred Stock. As part of the
financing transaction, the Company issued warrants to acquire 150,000 shares of
common stock at a price of $17.22 per share. The warrants have a three-year term
and are immediately exercisable. As of December 31, 1999, no shares of Series C
preferred stock were outstanding, and a total of 194,503 shares of the Company's
common stock were issuable upon exercise of the associated warrants.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

     On March 30, 1999, the Company entered into a financing transaction with a
group of private investors that provided $20,000,000 in cash to the Company from
the sale of 2,000 shares of its Series D Convertible Preferred Stock. Each
holder of Series D preferred stock has special voting rights with respect to
matters that adversely affect the rights of holders of Series D preferred stock
and otherwise has no voting rights except as may be required by law. Each share
of Series D preferred stock accrues dividends quarterly at a rate of 5% per
annum of the stated value ($10,000 per share). The liquidation preference of
Series D preferred stock is $10,000 per share plus any accrued but unpaid
dividends and unpaid default interest on cash dividends, and is payable pari
passu with the Series A, Series E, Series F and Series G preferred stock and in
preference to the holders of common stock. Each share of Series D preferred
stock is convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion
rate obtained by dividing the liquidation preference by $1.684 (the "Series D
Conversion Price"). The Series D Conversion Price is subject to adjustment upon
certain events, including, without limitation, adjustment following the last day
of each September and March until March 30, 2002 and on December 31, 1999 and
June 30, 2000, to an amount equal to 110% of the average of the closing bid
prices of the Company's common stock during the ten trading days immediately
after each such date (the "Series D Reset Price") if the Series D Reset Price is
less than the then-effective Series D Conversion Price.

     Subject to certain conditions, the Company may redeem all of the Series D
preferred stock upon a Change of Control at a price equal to, subject to limited
exceptions, 115% of the liquidation preference. In addition, subject to certain
conditions, in the event that a Series D Reset Price is less than $1.966, the
Company may redeem all of the Series D preferred stock at the liquidation
preference.

     In the event of a Major Transaction, the holders of Series D preferred
stock may require the Company to redeem any or all of their shares at the
greater of (i) 125% of the liquidation preference and (ii) a price based on the
market value of the common stock at the time of the public announcement of such
Major Transaction. However, in the event of a Change of Control, the holders of
the Series D preferred stock may not exercise their rights of redemption if the
Company has previously delivered its notice of redemption upon a Change of
Control. The holders of the Series D preferred stock are also entitled to
require the Company to redeem some or all of their shares at a per share price
equal to 130% of the liquidation preference, or in certain cases, the greater of
(i) 130% of the liquidation preference and (ii) a price based on the closing bid
price of the Company's common stock at the time of any of the following events,
among others: (x) the Company's failure to use its best efforts to maintain
registration of the common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series D
preferred stock; (y) the Company's failure to use its reasonable best efforts to
maintain the listing of its common stock on The Nasdaq National Market
("Nasdaq"), The New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"), or the American Stock
Exchange, Inc. ("AMEX"); or (z) the Company's failure to timely convert the
Series D preferred stock. In addition, the holders of the Series D preferred
stock are entitled to require the Company to redeem some or all of their shares
at a per share price equal to the liquidation preference at the time of any of
the following events: (i) the Company's failure to maintain the registration
statement for resale of the common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series
D preferred stock; (ii) the Company's failure to maintain listing of its common
stock on Nasdaq, NYSE or AMEX; or (iii) a purchase, tender or exchange offer
made to and accepted by holders of more than 50% of the Company's common stock
which is not approved or recommended by the Company's board of directors. As
part of the financing transaction, the Company issued warrants to acquire an
additional 150,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.078 per
share. The warrants have a three-year term and are immediately exercisable. As
of December 31, 1999, a total of 6,277,732 shares of common stock were issuable
upon the conversion of all Series D preferred stock and associated warrants.

     On June 18, 1999, the Company entered into an agreement with Excite, Inc.
in which the Company sold 599 shares of its Series E Convertible Preferred Stock
and a warrant to purchase an additional 100 shares of Series E preferred stock
for cash proceeds of $6.0 million, net of issuance costs of $33,000. Except as
may be required by law, the Series E preferred stock has no voting rights. The
holder is entitled to receive non-

cumulative dividends at 5% of $10,000 per annum on each share of the Series E
preferred stock, which are payable in preference to any dividends on the
Company's common stock. The liquidation preference of Series E preferred stock
is $10,000 per share, and is payable pari passu with the Series A, Series D,
Series F and Series G preferred stock and in preference to the holders of common
stock. Subject to adjustment in certain circumstances, each share of Series E
preferred stock is convertible into that number of shares of the Company's
common stock equal to $10,000 divided by $3.80. The associated warrant is
exercisable for 100 shares of Series E preferred stock at an exercise price of
$10,000 per share, has a fifteen-month term, and is immediately exercisable. As
of December 31, 1999, a total of 1,839,473 shares of common stock were issuable
upon the conversion of all Series E preferred stock and associated warrants.

     Effective July 30, 1999, the Company entered into a common stock investment
agreement with an existing institutional investor, providing the Company an
equity line of credit. The common stock investment agreement permits the Company
to require the investor to purchase from time to time an aggregate of up to
$20,000,000 of the Company's common stock in increments of up to $5,000,000. In
addition, pursuant to a March 10, 2000 amendment (see Note 15), the investor has
the right to purchase in its sole discretion up to 100% of each increment
requested by the Company, up to an aggregate of an additional $6,000,000 of
common stock during the term of the common stock investment agreement. However,
there are numerous conditions on the Company's right to draw down under the
equity line, and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to draw
down on the line in an amount totaling as much as $20,000,000. On November 23,
1999, the Company sold 125,000 shares of its common stock at $2.00 per share for
an aggregate purchase price of $250,000 under the equity line of credit pursuant
to a draw down notice delivered by the Company on September 10, 1999.

     On September 9, 1999, certain of the Company's investors exchanged an
aggregate of 1,000 shares of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock for 1,000
shares of the Company's Series F Convertible Preferred Stock. Each holder of
Series F preferred stock has special voting rights with respect to matters that
adversely affect the rights of holders of Series F preferred stock and otherwise
has no voting rights except as may be required by law. Each share of Series F
preferred stock accrues dividends quarterly at a rate of 5% per annum of the
stated value ($10,000 per share). The liquidation preference of Series F
preferred stock is $10,000 per share plus any accrued but unpaid dividends and
unpaid default interest on cash dividends, and is payable pari passu with the
Series A, Series D, Series E and Series G preferred stock and in preference to
the holders of common stock. Each share of Series F preferred stock is
convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion rate
obtained by dividing the liquidation preference by $1.378 (the "Series F
Conversion Price"). The Series F Conversion Price is subject to adjustment upon
certain events, including, without limitation, adjustment following the last day
of each December, March, June and September until March 30, 2002, to an amount
equal to 90% of the average of the closing bid prices of the Company's common
stock during the ten trading days immediately after each such date (the "Series
F Reset Price") if the Series F Reset Price is less than the then-effective
Series F Conversion Price.

     Subject to certain conditions, the Company may redeem all of the Series F
preferred stock upon a consolidation, merger or other business combination in
which the Company's stockholders do not retain sufficient voting power in the
surviving entity to elect a majority of such entity's board of directors (a
"Change of Control") at a price equal to, subject to limited exceptions, 115% of
the liquidation preference. In addition, subject to certain conditions, in the
event that a Series F Reset Price is less than $1.966, the Company may redeem
all of the Series F preferred stock at the liquidation preference.

     In the event of a Change of Control, the sale of substantially all of the
assets of the Company, or a purchase, tender or exchange offer made to and
accepted by holders of more than 50% of the common stock of the Company which is
approved or recommended by the Company's board of directors (each a "Major
Transaction"), the holders of Series F preferred stock may require the Company
to redeem any or all of their

shares at the greater of (i) 125% of the liquidation preference and (ii) a price
based on the market value of the common stock at the time of the public
announcement of such Major Transaction. However, in the event of a Change of
Control, the holders of the Series F preferred stock may not exercise their
right of redemption if the Company has previously delivered its notice of
redemption upon a Change of Control. Unless the Company elects to redeem the
Series F preferred stock at a price per share equal to the greater of 130% of
the liquidation preference and a price based on the closing bid price of the
Company's common stock, then, at the time of any of the following events, the
holders of the Series F preferred stock are entitled to a substantial reduction
in the conversion price and a payment of 1% of the liquidation preference for
each day that any of such events continues for up to 20 days in any 365-day
period: (i) the Company's failure to maintain registration of the common stock
issuable upon conversion or exercise of the Series F preferred stock; or (ii)
the Company's failure to maintain the listing of the common stock on Nasdaq,
NYSE or AMEX. If the Company fails to make these 1% penalty payments, the
holders of the Series F preferred stock will have the right to require the
Company to redeem some or all of their shares at a price per share equal to the
greater of 130% of the liquidation preference or a price based on the closing
bid price. The holders of the Series F preferred stock also have the right to
require the Company to redeem their shares at such price upon the occurrence of
any of the following events: (i) the Company's failure to use its best efforts
to maintain registration of the common stock issuable upon conversion or
exercise of the Series F preferred stock; (ii) the Company's failure to use its
reasonable best efforts to maintain the listing of the common stock on Nasdaq,
NYSE or AMEX; or (iii) the Company's failure to timely convert shares of Series
F preferred stock to common stock. As of December 31, 1999, a total of 6,356,382
shares of common stock were issuable upon the conversion of all Series F
preferred stock.

     In November 1999, the Company announced a strategic partnership with
OnStar, a division of General Motors Corporation. The agreement entails the
licensing of the Company's magicTalk communications platform to be used in the
OnStar Advisory System for mid-sized cars and trucks in the GM family. OnStar
paid the Company $20.0 million related to a preferred stock investment,
technology agreement and license fee. The Company expects to recognize $6.2
million in revenue through mid-2000 associated with this transaction.

     Under a letter agreement dated as of the December 9, 1999 closing date,
General Motors agreed that it would not exercise or permit a transferee to
exercise the right to convert shares of the Series G preferred stock into shares
of the Company's common stock to the extent that the shares of common stock
issuable upon conversion would exceed 19.99% of the outstanding shares of the
Company's common stock as of December 9, 1999 (the "Exchange Cap") unless the
Company (i) obtains the approval of its stockholders as required by Rule 4460(i)
and applicable regulations of Nasdaq for issuance of common stock (or securities
convertible into or exercisable for common stock) in excess of the Exchange Cap
or (ii) obtains a written opinion reasonably satisfactory to General Motors from
outside counsel to the Company that such approval is not required. Furthermore,
General Motors agreed not to exercise, nor to allow a transferee to exercise,
the warrant unless the Company (i) obtains such stockholder approval or (ii)
obtains such written opinion.

     The letter agreement requires the Company to seek and use reasonable best
efforts to obtain either (a) the stockholder approval required by the applicable
rules and regulations of Nasdaq for the issuance by the Company of (i) that
portion of the Series G preferred stock that may not be converted without
exceeding the Exchange Cap, (ii) the associated warrant, and (iii) shares of the
Company's common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common
stock) issuable upon conversion of such portion of the Series G preferred stock
or upon exercise of the warrant or (b) an opinion of counsel reasonably
satisfactory to General Motors that such approval is not required.

     Should the Company fail to obtain the approval of its stockholders or an
opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to General Motors, then the Company
must, at the absolute discretion of the Company, either

(i) pay to General Motors $7 million in cash, or (ii) pay to General Motors $3.5
million in cash and credit $3.5 million against amounts then owed or next owing
by General Motors to the Company.

     Subject to the provisions of the letter agreement, the shares of Series G
preferred stock are convertible, at the option of the holder, into common stock
of the Company at a conversion rate equal to $10,000 divided by $1.684 (as
adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations, splits, reclassifications,
exchanges, recapitalizations, capital reorganizations, and the like with respect
to such shares). In addition, upon the consent of the holders of at least fifty
percent of the Series G preferred stock then outstanding, all outstanding shares
of the Series G preferred stock will be converted into shares of common stock
automatically and without any further action by the holders of such shares,
subject to the provisions of the letter agreement.

     The holders of Series G preferred stock are entitled to receive, when, if
and as declared by the Company's Board of Directors, noncumulative cash
dividends at the rate of 7% of $10,000 per annum on each outstanding share of
Series G preferred stock (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations,
splits, recapitalizations and the like with respect to such shares).

     The holders of Series G preferred stock are entitled to vote together with
the common stock as though part of that class and are entitled to vote on all
matters the number of votes equal to the largest number of whole shares of
common stock into which the holder's shares of Series G preferred stock may be
converted. The holders of Series G preferred stock are entitled to vote as a
separate class (i) on any matter as to which such class would be entitled to
vote under applicable law, (ii) on any matter proposing to change any provision
of the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of Series G
Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Certificate of Designations") or the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation if such action would adversely alter or change the
preferences, rights, privileges or powers of, or the restrictions provided for
the benefit of, the holders of the Series G preferred stock, unless all series
of preferred stock are so altered or changed and (iii) on any matter to increase
or decrease the number of authorized shares of Series G preferred stock.

     Furthermore, the holders of the Series G preferred stock, voting as a
separate class, have the right to elect one member of the Company's Board of
Directors until the earlier of (i) the date upon which less than 600 shares (as
adjusted for stock splits, recombinations, reclassifications and the like) of
Series G preferred stock are outstanding, (ii) the date upon which General
Motors Corporation and its affiliates own less than a majority of the
outstanding shares of Series G preferred stock (as adjusted for stock splits,
recombinations, reclassifications and the like), and (iii) the date of
consummation of an acquisition or asset transfer, as those terms are defined in
Section 3(b) of the Certificate of Designations. As of December 31, 1999, a
total of 11,876,484 shares of common stock were issuable upon the conversion of
all Series G preferred stock.

     During 1999, adjustments to accumulated deficit of approximately $251
thousand were recorded to recognize the value of favorable conversion rights
associated with the warrants for Series D preferred stock issued during the
period. Adjustments to accumulated deficit of approximately $485 thousand were
recorded in the year ended December 31, 1999, to recognize the value of
favorable conversion, redemption and exercise rights associated with the Series
F preferred stock issued during the period. Adjustments to accumulated deficit
of approximately $11.7 million were recorded in the year ended December 31,
1999, to recognize the value of favorable conversion, redemption and exercise
rights associated with the Series G preferred stock and related warrants issued
during the period. The adjustments principally represent the calculation of the
Black-Scholes warrant costs. Adjustments to accumulated deficit of approximately
$1.1 million were recorded in the year ended December 31, 1999, to record
dividends accrued for the period.

     During the year ended December 31, 1999, 5,600 shares of the 5 1/2%
Cumulative Convertible Series B Preferred Stock were converted into 2.5 million
shares of common stock. As of December 31, 1999, no shares of the Series B
preferred stock were outstanding. During the year ended December 31, 1999, 1,549
shares of the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock were converted into 4.9

NOTE 10: STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

  Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

     As of December 31, 1999, the Company had three stock-based compensation
plans, which consist of two stock option plans and an employee stock purchase
plan. The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in
accounting for its plans for stock options issued to employees. The Company has
adopted the pro forma disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123. Compensation
expense recognized under these three plans for 1999, 1998, and 1997 was
$772,000, $1,390,000, and none, respectively and relate principally to the
divestiture of DSI (see Note 6). Excluding the compensation expense recorded in
1999 and 1998, had compensation cost for the Company's three stock-based
compensation plans been determined based on the fair value approach described in
SFAS No. 123, the Company's net loss and loss per share would have been
increased to the pro forma amounts indicated below.

  Stock Option Plans

     The Company has two stock option plans, the Amended and Restated 1990 Stock
Option Plan ("1990 Stock Option Plan") and the 1994 Outside Directors Stock
Option Plan, as amended ("Directors Option Plan"). Under the 1990 Stock Option
Plan, the Company has reserved an aggregate of 12,870,000 shares of common stock
for issuance. The 1990 Stock Option Plan provides that stock options may be
granted to employees (including officers), consultants, advisers and other
independent contractors, at an exercise price not less than 100% of the fair
market value, as determined by the Board of Directors, for incentive stock
options, and 50% of the fair market value for nonqualified stock options, at the
grant date. All options granted under the 1990 Stock Option Plan must have a
term not greater than 10 years from the date of grant. The Board of Directors
determines the number of shares for which an option may be granted. Options
issued generally vest 25% after one year and then ratably at 1/48 per month
thereafter. However, in April 1997, 1,182,500 options were granted to Company
employees (excluding officers), subject to acceleration of vesting upon
achievement of specified milestones. As of December 31, 1999, up to 100 % of the
grant was accelerated based on the achievement of certain of those milestones.
Also, in May and September 1999, 154,000, 244,000 options respectively, were
granted to Company employees (excluding officers), subject to acceleration of
vesting upon achievement of specified milestones. As of December 31, 1999, 50%
of the May 1999 grant was

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

accelerated and 0% of the September 1999 grant was accelerated based on the
achievement of certain of those milestones.

     Under the Directors Option Plan, the Company has reserved an aggregate of
550,000 shares of common stock for issuance. The Directors Option Plan provides
for the automatic grant of nonqualified stock options to directors of the
Company who are not employees of (i) the Company, (ii) a stockholder of the
Company, (iii) a holder of a technology license from the Company, or (iv) any
parent or subsidiary of the same ("Eligible Outside Directors"). Each person who
is newly elected or appointed as an Eligible Outside Director is automatically
granted an option to purchase 40,000 shares of common stock. Each Eligible
Outside Director is automatically granted an option to purchase 10,000 shares of
common stock on the day following each anniversary date of election or
appointment, subject to the director's option to decline the grant. The exercise
price of the options in all cases is equal to the fair market value of common
stock on the grant date. The initial grant options generally vest and become
exercisable 25% after the first year and then ratably at 1/48 per month
thereafter. The anniversary grant options generally vest and become exercisable
at the rate of 1/12 per month beginning three years after the grant date.
Generally, options must be exercised within 10 years.

     Under SFAS No. 123, the fair value of each option grant under the two stock
option plans is estimated on the respective date of grant using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average
assumptions used for 1999, 1998, and 1997: zero dividend yield; expected
volatility of 70%; risk free interest rates of 5.52%, 4.59%, and 6.42%,
respectively; and expected lives of 3.30, 3.50, and 3.24 years, respectively.
The expected volatility assumption was estimated based on historical industry
stock price volatility as well as the Company's historical stock price
volatility, and assumes increases and decreases in stock prices. The expected
volatility assumption used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model may not be
indicative of the historic or future performance of the Company's common stock.

     Option activity under the Company's two stock option plans was as follows

  1995 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

     As of December 31, 1999, the Company had reserved an aggregate of 551,869
shares of common stock for issuance under the 1995 Employee Stock Purchase Plan,
as amended ("Purchase Plan"). The Purchase Plan permits eligible employees to
purchase common stock at a discount through payroll deductions during 12-month
and 6-month offering periods. The price for the initial offering period was
equal to 85% of the fair market value of common stock at the close of business
on the day prior to the first day of the initial offering period or the fair
market value of common stock on the last day of the purchase period, whichever
was lower. The price at which stock is purchased under the Purchase Plan for all
subsequent periods is equal to 85% of the fair market value of common stock on
the first day of the offering period, or the last day of the purchase period,
whichever is lower. Under the Purchase Plan, the Company sold 92,411, 124,813,
and 84,890 shares to its employees in 1999, 1998, and 1997 respectively.

     Under SFAS No. 123, the fair value of employees' purchase rights was
estimated using the Black-Scholes model with the following assumptions for 1999,
1998 and 1997: zero dividend yield and expected life of 12 months for each year;
expected volatility of 70%; and risk free interest rates of 5.01%, 5.37%, and
5.53%, respectively. The expected volatility assumption was estimated based on
historical industry stock price volatility as well as the Company's historical
stock price volatility, and assumes increases and decreases in stock prices. The
expected volatility assumption used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model
may not be indicative of the historic or future performance of the Company's
common stock. The weighted-average fair value of purchase rights (including the
15% discount off of the quoted market price of common stock) granted in 1999,
1998 and 1997 was $1.09, $0.73, and $0.70, respectively.

  Restricted Stock Grant

     During 1997, the Company sold to its Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and
President 135,000 shares of restricted common stock for $0.10 per share. The
Company recorded approximately $155,000 of deferred compensation in connection
with the sale of these shares, which had been fully expensed by December 31,
1998. During 1998, the Company sold to its Chief Technology Officer 280,000
shares of restricted common stock for $0.10 per share. The Company recorded
approximately $393,000 of deferred compensation in connection with the sale of
these shares, which had been fully expensed as of December 31, 1998.

NOTE 11: RETIREMENT PLAN

     The Company has a deferred compensation plan for all employees who are at
least 21 years of age. Under the plan, which qualifies under Section 401(k) of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, eligible

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

employees may contribute from 2% to 20% of their pretax compensation, up to the
annual limits imposed by the Internal Revenue Service.

     The Company may, at its discretion, contribute to the plan. No employer
contributions have been made in any of the periods presented.

NOTE 12: COMMITMENTS

  Purchase Commitments

     In April 1998, the Company entered into an agreement with Qwest
Communications International, Inc. to purchase telecommunications services at
fixed prices for an initial term of three years. The Company is currently
obligated to purchase $13,000,000 in telecommunications services during the
three-year period ending April 30, 2001, of which $1,500,000 has been purchased
as of December 31, 1999. The charges underlying this commitment will be expensed
in the periods in which they occur.

  Long-Term Debt

     In December 1997, the Company entered into a $4,000,000 term loan with a
financial institution. The loan bore interest at 0.25% above the financial
institution's prime rate, and had a term of 40 months with interest only due in
the first four months and principal and interest due monthly thereafter. This
loan was secured by all of the assets of the Company, including its intellectual
property. The loan was paid in full on August 31, 1999.

     In June 1998, the Company secured a $3,000,000 term loan with the same
financial institution. The loan bore interest at the financial institution's
prime rate, and had a term of 42 months with interest only due in the first six
months and principal and interest due monthly thereafter. This loan was secured
by all of the assets of the Company, including its intellectual property. The
loan was paid in full on August 31, 1999.

  Lease Commitments

     The Company leases two facilities under operating leases extending through
2002 and 2003, respectively. The leases require the Company to pay all executory
costs, such as maintenance and insurance, and provide for escalating rent
payments. The Company is amortizing the total rent payments over the lease term
on a straight-line basis for the leases. The Company has subleased the second of
its facilities in Sunnyvale consisting of 20,000 square feet, under subleases
expiring in 2001 and 2003.

     Rent expense was approximately $688,000, $175,000, and $790,000 for the
fiscal years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Future
minimum lease payments under noncancelable operating leases as of December 31,
1998 are as follows (in thousands):

     The net change in the total valuation allowance for the year ended December

     Deferred tax assets as of December 31, 1999 include approximately
$6,150,000 relating to the exercise of stock options, which will be credited to
equity if and when realized.

     As of December 31, 1999, the Company has cumulative federal net operating
losses of approximately $215,844,000, which can be used to offset future income
subject to federal income taxes. The federal tax loss carryforwards will expire
from 2006 through 2019. The Company has cumulative state net operating losses of
approximately $115,402,000, which can be used to offset future income subject to
state income taxes. The state tax loss carryforwards will expire from 1999
through 2004.

     As of December 31, 1999, foreign tax credits of approximately $1,215,000

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

     Federal and state tax laws limit the use of net operating loss
carryforwards in certain situations where changes occur in the stock ownership
of a company. The Company believes such an ownership change, as defined, may
have occurred and, accordingly, certain of the Company's federal and state net
operating loss carryforwards may be limited in their annual usage.

NOTE 14: SEGMENT, GEOGRAPHIC AND CUSTOMER INFORMATION

     The Company has adopted SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information." SFAS No. 131 establishes standards for
reporting information about operating segments in annual financial statements.
It also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and
services, major customers, and geographic areas.

     Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which
separate financial information is available and is evaluated regularly by the
chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in
assessing performance. The Company's chief operating decision maker is its Chief
Executive Officer ("CEO"). Financial information for separate components of the
Company's business is not evaluated by the CEO for review and analysis.
Allocation of resources and assessment of performance is based on the Company's
consolidated financial information, which is available to the CEO in
substantially the form presented in the accompanying consolidated statement of
operations. The Company therefore operates in a single operating segment: voice
application services.

     From its inception through the year ended December 31, 1999, the Company
has derived revenue from two product lines. Initially, the Company derived
revenues from the development, licensing, manufacturing and sale of handheld
communications device technologies and products, including object-oriented
software platform technologies ("Handheld Technologies"). In 1997, the Company
began developing and marketing platforms for the delivery of voice application
services and products, and in 1998, launched Portico, a General Magic branded
service, and the first voice application developed, deployed, and hosted by the
Company. Effective October 1998, the Company divested itself of its DataRover
handheld communications device division in order to focus on the development,
marketing and sale of voice application services.

     Revenue by product offering was as follows (in thousands):

     For the year ended December 31, 1999, revenue from one major customer
accounted for 61% of total revenue. For the year ended December 31, 1998,
revenue from one major customer, a stockholder in the Company, accounted for 66%
of total revenue. For the year ended December 31, 1997, revenue from two major
customers, both then stockholders in the Company, accounted for 69% and 13% of
total revenue, respectively.

     The Company's revenue was generated principally from its headquarters in
North America. Revenue from customers in Japan amounted to none, $387,000, and
$2,875,000 for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997 respectively.
The Company did not receive revenue from customers in Europe for the years ended
December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997. Substantially all of the Company's tangible
assets are located at its North American headquarters.

to the investor. The aggregate amount available under the equity line, however,
was not increased by this amendment.
