NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



Note 1 Basis of Presentation



Tarantella, Inc. (also referred to as Tarantella, the Company, we, us or our) is a leading provider of Internet infrastructure software that enables web-based access to enterprise
applications from virtually any client device including personal computers, Apple Macintosh computers, network terminals known as thin clients and handheld devices, such as personal digital assistants. The Tarantella Secure Global
Desktop Enterprise Edition solution instantly provides managed and secure web access to enterprise mainframe, Windows, AS/400, Linux, and UNIX applications. It leverages existing information technology assets to provide cost savings, improved
productivity, and the flexibility to accommodate the rapid changes in todays organizations.



We were incorporated as The Santa Cruz Operation, Inc. (SCO) in California in 1979. On May 4, 2001, SCO completed the sale of its Server
Software and Professional Services Divisions to Caldera Systems, Inc., retaining the Tarantella Division. Upon the completion of the sale, SCO changed its corporate name to Tarantella, Inc.



In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, balance sheets and statements of cash flows include all the material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which we consider necessary for a fair presentation of our
financial condition and results of operations as of and for the interim periods presented. These unaudited financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries after all material intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2004, included
in our 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on December 29, 2004 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The unaudited consolidated interim results presented are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. The
September 30, 2004 balance sheet was derived from the audited financial statements, and is included for comparative purposes.



The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.



Note 2Continued Operations and Going Concern



We operate in the software industry, which is characterized by intense competition, rapid technological advances and evolving industry standards. Factors
that could affect our future operating results and cause actual results to vary

materially from expectations include, but are not limited to, dependence on an industry that is characterized by rapid technological changes, fluctuations in
end-user demands, evolving industry standards, competition, and risks associated with foreign currencies. Failure by us to anticipate or respond adequately to technological developments in the software industry, changes in customer or supplier
requirements or changes in industry standards could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results.



Our net loss was $1.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2004, and we have recorded substantial net losses during each of the past five fiscal
years. During the quarter ended December 31, 2004, we continued to require funds to finance our operations. We have implemented a series of restructuring programs over the past several years aimed at aligning our costs to our revenues and increasing
our revenues to compete in the current business environment and over the long term. While we believe we have made progress in these areas, we must continue to manage our costs and improve our revenues to compete in the existing business environment.



In connection with the above-mentioned plan, we anticipate
that we will record charges, including substantial costs required to meet the filing requirements of a public company including the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and potential additional restructuring charges to further align our
costs to our revenues, possibly including asset impairments and other associated charges, the amount and timing of which cannot be fully estimated at this time.



We believe that, unless we effectively balance our cost structure to our revenues, we may not be able to access the capital markets for new borrowings
or financings on acceptable terms. Continued losses of the magnitude we recorded in fiscal 2004 are unsustainable. We have significant obligations due in fiscal 2005 and thereafter, including significant financing maturities related to a business
purchase we completed in fiscal 2003, operating lease payments and other on-going operating costs. We are intensively engaged in an effort to implement our new strategic business rebranding initiatives in order to successfully expand the market
penetration of our products and become a profitable company, but there can be no assurance this effort will succeed. If we do not make substantial progress in the near term toward achieving profitable growth in our competitive market we may not
succeed as a going concern.



These matters, among others, raise
substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal
course of business. Accordingly, the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be
unable to continue as a going concern.



Note 3Summary of Significant
Accounting Policies



Revenue Recognition Our
revenue is derived primarily from two sources, across many industries: (i) products license revenue, primarily from product sales to distributors and end users, and royalty revenue, primarily from initial license fees and ongoing royalties from
product sales by source code OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) and ISVs (independent software vendors); and (ii) services and support revenue, primarily from providing software updates, support, education and consulting services to end users.

##### Table of Contents

We account for revenue under the provisions of AICPA Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2,
Software Revenue Recognition, as amended. Product revenue is recognized upon shipment if evidence of an arrangement exists, the fee is fixed and determinable and collection of resulting receivables is probable. Sales to distributors are
recognized upon sale by the distributor to resellers or end users. In certain instances when distributors waive their right to return product, revenue is recognized upon shipment if evidence of an arrangement exists, the fee is fixed and
determinable and collection of resulting receivables is probable. Estimated product returns are recorded upon recognition of revenue from customers having rights of return, including exchange rights for unsold products and product upgrades.



For multiple element contracts involving the sale of our
products we use the residual value method to allocate revenue to each component. Vendor specific objective evidence of the fair value of maintenance of license agreements is based on stated renewal rates, and for contracts that do not include stated
renewal rates, vendor specific objective evidence of the fair value is determined by reference to the price paid by our customers when maintenance is sold separately. Past history has shown that the rate we charge for maintenance for license
agreements with a stated renewal rate is similar to the rate we charge for maintenance on license agreements without a stated renewal rate.



We recognize revenue from maintenance fees for ongoing customer support and product updates ratably over the period of the maintenance contract. Payments
for maintenance fees are generally made in advance and are non-refundable. For revenue allocated to education and consulting services or derived from the separate sale of such services, we recognize revenue as the related services are performed.



We recognize product revenue from royalty payments upon
receipt of quarterly royalty reports from OEMs and ISVs related to their product sales.



We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers financial condition and do not require collateral. We maintain allowances for potential credit losses and such losses have been within managements
expectations.



Stock Based Compensation We
account for stock-based compensation arrangements under the provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees for our fixed stock option plan and employee stock purchase plan
and, accordingly, have not recognized compensation cost in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for options issued at fair value. SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation, permits the use of either a fair value based
method or the intrinsic value method to measure the expense associated with stock-based compensation arrangements. In accordance with the disclosure provisions of SFAS 148, Accounting for Stock Based CompensationTransition and
Disclosure, the pro forma effect on our net loss had compensation expense been recorded for the three months ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, as determined under the fair value method, is shown below (in thousands, except per
share amounts):

Note 4Net Loss per Share



Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss
for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share because the calculating of diluted net loss per share excludes potential dilutive shares of
common stock since their effect is anti-dilutive. The potentially dilutive securities are as follows (in thousands):

Note 5Recent Accounting
Pronouncements



In July 2004, the FASB ratified Emerging
Issues Task Force (EITF) consensus on Issue No. 02-14, Whether an Investor Should Apply the Equity Method of Accounting to Investments Other Than Common Stock, which provides guidance regarding application of the equity method of
accounting to investments other than common stock. EITF Issue No. 02-14 is effective beginning in our first quarter of fiscal 2005. The adoption of EITF Issue No. 02-14 did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of
operations.



In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R,
Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R), a revision to SFAS No. 123 Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS 123) and superseding APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and its related
implementation guidance. SFAS 123R establishes standards for the accounting for

transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, including obtaining employee services in share-based payment
transactions. SFAS 123R applies to all awards granted after the required effective date and to awards modified, repurchased, or cancelled after that date. We have not yet quantified the effects of the adoption of SFAS 123R, but it is expected that
the new standard will result in significant stock-based compensation expense. The pro forma effects on net loss per share if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of original SFAS 123 on stock compensation awards (rather than applying
the intrinsic value measurement provisions of Opinion 25) are disclosed in Note 3 of this Form 10-Q. Although such pro forma effects of applying original SFAS 123 may be indicative of the effects of adopting SFAS 123R, the provisions of these two
statements differ in some important respects. The actual effects of adopting SFAS 123R will be dependent on numerous factors including, but not limited to, the valuation model chosen by us to value stock-based awards; the assumed award forfeiture
rate; the accounting policies adopted concerning the method of recognizing the fair value of awards over the requisite service period; and the transition method (as described below) chosen for adopting SFAS 123R.



SFAS 123R will be effective for our fiscal quarter beginning July 1, 2005,
and requires the use of the Modified Prospective Application Method. Under this method SFAS 123R is applied to new awards and to awards modified, repurchased, or cancelled after the effective date. Additionally, compensation cost for the portion of
awards for which the requisite service has not been rendered (such as unvested options) that are outstanding as of the date of adoption shall be recognized as the remaining requisite services are rendered. The compensation cost relating to unvested
awards at the date of adoption shall be based on the grant-date fair value of those awards as calculated for pro forma disclosures under the original SFAS123. In addition, companies may use the Modified Retrospective Application Method. This method
may be applied to all prior years for which the original SFAS 123 was effective or only to prior interim periods in the year of initial adoption. If the Modified Retrospective Application Method is applied, financial statements for prior periods
shall be adjusted to give effect to the fair-value-based method of accounting for awards on a consistent basis with the pro forma disclosures required for those periods under the original SFAS 123.

Fiscal 2004
Restructuring PlansDuring the first and fourth quarters of fiscal 2004, we announced restructuring plans which resulted in charges of $19,000 and $1.1 million, respectively, in order to reduce our spending levels to align operating expenses
with our lower than expected revenues. The first quarter restructuring plan eliminated our presence in Austria and was completed by the end of fiscal 2004. The fourth quarter restructuring plan reduced the existing workforce in the United States and
the United Kingdom and vacated additional facility space at our Santa Cruz, California, headquarters. The reductions in work force affected our sales, product development and corporate services functions. We expect to complete this fourth quarter
restructuring plan during fiscal 2005.

Fiscal 2002 Restructuring PlanDuring the first quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company
announced a restructuring plan, which resulted in a charge of $1.6 million. The Company reduced its spending levels to align its operating expenses with the Companys lower than expected revenues. The restructuring included a reduction in
staffing, a reserve for unused facilities at the Companys corporate headquarters, and costs associated with closing several foreign offices. The Company completed the cost reduction actions initiated in fiscal 2002, with the exception of
sub-leasing excess space at the Companys corporate headquarters in Santa Cruz, California which has been reserved for though the lease expiration date of June 30, 2005.

Note 10Commitments and contingencies



Indemnification We license our software and services pursuant to a software license agreement, in which we
agree to indemnify, hold harmless and defend the customer against damages arising out of claims filed by third parties that our products infringe any copyright or other intellectual property right. The term of the indemnification is generally
perpetual, limited by applicable statutes of limitations. The license agreement generally limits the scope of the remedies for such indemnification obligation, including but not limited to certain product usage limitations and the right to replace
an infringing product or modify it to make it non-infringing. If we cannot address the infringement by replacing or repairing the product, we are allowed to cancel the license and return the fees paid by the customer. We have never incurred expense
under such indemnification provisions. We believe the estimated fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal.



As permitted under California law, we have agreements whereby we indemnify our officers and directors for certain events while our officer or director is,
or was serving at our request in such capacity. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is unlimited; however, we have a Directors and Officers insurance policy
that limits our exposure and enables us to recover at least a portion of any future amounts paid. As a result of our insurance policy coverage, we believe the estimated fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal.



Warranties We generally warrant for a period of 90 days that
our software products will perform substantially in accordance with its published specifications, that the reproduction of our software on the media material provided by us is correct and that the documentation is correctly printed. In the event of
any non-conformance, we agree to repair, replace or accept return of the non-conforming product and refund any fees paid by the customer for said non-conforming product. We have never incurred significant expense under our product warranties. We
believe the estimated fair value of these warranty agreements is immaterial.



Litigation No material legal proceedings are pending to which we are a party. We are responding to claims arising in the ordinary course of business. We intend to defend ourselves vigorously in these
matters. Our management believes that it is unlikely that the outcome of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial statements, although there can be no assurance in this regard.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations



The following Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the
Companys unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as the Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Result of Operations
included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2004. In addition to historical information contained herein, this discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements. These statements
involve risks and uncertainties and can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as estimates, projects, anticipates, plans, future, may, will,
should, predicts, potential, continue, expects, intends, believes, and similar expressions. Examples of forward-looking statements include those relating to
financial risk, management activities and the adequacy of financial resources for operations. These and other forward-looking statements are only estimates and predictions. While the Company (also referred to as Tarantella,
we, us, or our) believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, our actual results could differ materially due to a number of factors, including those set forth in the
section entitled Risk Factors and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect managements expectations only as of the date
hereof.



Business Overview



We are a leading provider of internet infrastructure software that enables
web-based access to enterprise applications.



Our products
provide managed and secure web access to enterprise mainframe, Windows, AS/400, Linux, and UNIX applications. Our products allow businesses to leverage their existing information technology assets to provide cost savings, improved productivity, and
the flexibility to accommodate the rapid changes in todays organizations.



Overview of Our Results



Our revenues derive
primarily from two sources, across many industries: (i) product license revenue, primarily from product sales to distributors and end users, and royalty revenue, primarily from initial license fees and ongoing royalties from product sales by source
code OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) and ISVs (independent software vendors); and (ii) services and support revenue, primarily from providing software updates, support, education and consulting services to end users.



Applications of Critical Accounting Policies



We have prepared our condensed consolidated financial statements in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. In preparing our financial statements, we make estimates, assumptions and judgments that can have a significant impact on our reported revenues, losses from operations,
and net loss, as well as on the value of certain assets and liabilities on our balance sheet. These estimates, assumptions and judgments



18



---

##### Table of Contents

about future events and their effects on our results cannot be determined with certainty, and are made based upon our historic experience and on other
assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates may change as new events occur or additional information is obtained, and we may periodically be faced with uncertainties, the outcomes of which are not within
our control and may not be known for a prolonged period of time. The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon these statements. There are a number of accounting policies, methods and estimates
affecting our financial statements. Areas that are particularly significant include revenue recognition, New Moon and Caststream acquisitions, goodwill and other intangible assets, restructuring charges, returns and reserves and allowance for
doubtful accounts, and income taxes, which are described below. In addition, please refer to Note 3 of our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of our significant accounting policies.



Additional information about these critical accounting policies may be found
in the Managements Discussion & Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2004. There have been no changes to these
critical accounting policies subsequent to September 30, 2004.



Revenue Recognition



We account for the licensing of software in accordance with American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2 Software Revenue Recognition, as amended. The application of SOP 97-2 requires
judgment, including whether (i) a software arrangement includes multiple elements, and if so, whether vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value exists for those elements, or (ii) the end users receive certain elements of our products
over a period of time. These elements include post-delivery support and the right to receive unspecified upgrades/enhancements of our products on a when-and-if-available basis. Changes to the elements in a software arrangement, the ability to
identify VSOE for those elements and the fair value of the respective elements could materially impact the amount of our earned and unearned revenue. Judgment is also required (i) to assess whether future releases of certain software represent new
products or upgrades and enhancements to existing products, and (ii) in our on-going evaluation of our customers credit worthiness at the time of sale.



New Moon and Caststream Acquisitions



In connection with the New Moon Systems, Inc. (New Moon) and Caststream acquisitions, we allocated the purchase
price associated with each acquisition to the tangible and intangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed and in-process research and development based on their estimated fair values. We engaged two third-party appraisal firms to assist us in
determining the fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. Such valuations require us to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. The critical estimates we used in allocating the
purchase price and valuing certain intangible assets included but were not limited to: future expected cash flows from customer contracts, acquired developed technologies and patents, expected costs to develop the in-process research and development
into commercially viable products, estimated cash flows from the projects when completed, and the trade name and the market position of the acquired products and assumptions about the period of time the trade name will continue to be used in the New
Moon product portfolio, and determining the appropriate discount rates and other assumptions. Our estimate of fair value at the time when they were made was based upon assumptions that we believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain
and unpredictable.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets



SFAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, requires that
goodwill be tested for impairment at the reporting unit level (operating segment or one level below an operating segment) on an annual basis and between annual tests in certain circumstances. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires
judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assigning assets and liabilities to reporting units, assigning goodwill to reporting units, and determining the fair value of each reporting unit. We will perform the annual goodwill
impairment test as of July 1stevery year to determine if there is any goodwill impairment. Significant judgments
required to estimate the fair value of reporting units include estimating future cash flows, determining appropriate discount rates and other assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair
value and/or goodwill impairment for each reporting unit.



Restructuring charges



Over the last several years we have undertaken significant restructuring initiatives, which have required us to develop formalized plans for exiting certain business activities. These plans have required us to record estimated expenses for
severance, lease cancellations, long-term asset write downs, and other restructuring costs. Given the significance and the timing of the execution of such activities, this process is complex and involves periodic reassessments of original estimates.
Our policies, as supported by current authoritative guidance, require us to continually evaluate the adequacy of the remaining liabilities under our restructuring activities. As we continue to evaluate the business, there may be additional charges
for new restructuring activities as well as changes in estimates of amounts previously recorded.



Returns and Reserves and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts



Our recognition of revenue from sales to distributors is affected by agreements giving distributors the right to return up
to ten percent of the amount of the last ninety days of the distributors software sales. Historically, the return rate has averaged less than ten percent. We record a provision for product returns for related sales in the same period as the
related revenues are recorded. These estimates are based on historical sales returns, analysis of credit memo data and other known factors. If the historical data we use to calculate these estimates does not properly reflect future returns, revenue
could be affected. Accordingly, estimating product returns requires significant management judgment. In addition, different return rate estimates that we reasonably could have used would have had a material impact on our reported sales and thus have
had a material impact on the presentation of the results of operations.



Payments from customers are continuously monitored and allowances are maintained for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of customers to make required payments. When evaluating the adequacy of allowances for
doubtful accounts, various factors are taken into consideration, including accounts receivable aging, customer credit-worthiness, historical bad debts, and geographic and political risk. While our credit losses have historically been within our
expectations and the allowance established, we might not continue to experience the same credit loss rates that we have in the past. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make
payments, additional allowances may be required.

##### Table of Contents

As of December 31, 2004, our net accounts receivable balance was $3.6 million, net of allowances of $0.1
million.



Income Taxes



SFAS 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, establishes financial
accounting and reporting standards for the effect of income taxes. The objectives of accounting for income taxes are to recognize the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future
tax consequences of events that have been recognized in an entitys financial statements or tax returns. Judgment is required in assessing the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax
returns. Fluctuations in the actual outcome of these future tax consequences could materially affect our financial position or our results of operations.



We have operations in many countries other than the United States. Transfer prices for services provided between the United States and these countries
have been documented as reasonable, however, tax authorities could challenge these transfer prices and assess additional taxes on prior period transactions. Any such assessment could require that we record an additional tax provision in our
statement of operations.



Income tax assets and liabilities are
determined by taxable jurisdiction. We evaluate net deferred tax assets in each tax jurisdiction by estimating the likelihood of generating future profits to realize these assets. When necessary, a valuation allowance is recorded to reduce tax
assets to an amount for which realization is more likely than not. The provision for income taxes represents taxes payable for the current period, plus the net change in deferred tax amounts.



De-Listing Status



On October 20, 2003, we announced that we had received notification from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel that our
stock would discontinue trading on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market effective with the open of business on Tuesday, October 21, 2003. Our stock began trading Over the Counter on the Pink Sheets in October 2003.



This action followed our appeal to Nasdaq for a listing extension after not
meeting the stated time requirements to file SEC Form 10-Q for our third quarter of fiscal 2002. The Nasdaq Panel determination to delist our stock was based on our filing delinquency, public interest concerns, and the nature of the internal revenue
investigation. On December 8, 2003, we filed an appeal to reverse that portion of the Nasdaq Panels decision relating to its public interest concerns. On February 27, 2004, the Nasdaq advised us that our appeal had been denied.



On April 6, 2004, we were once again current with our periodic reporting
obligations under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which is required for our shares to trade on the OTC Bulletin Board. On August 25, 2004, we announced that we had received notification that our shares were approved for trading
on the OTC Bulletin Board, and that trading had begun at the open of the market on August 24, 2004 under our new symbol TTLA.OB.

Now that we have resumed compliance with the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, we
intend to attempt to meet the listing requirements for the Nasdaq SmallCap Market, however some requirements such as minimum bid price and market capitalization are outside of our control.

|(1) | percentage of period total net revenues
|--- | ---------------------------------------



Our net revenues are derived from software licenses and fees for services, which include maintenance, support, engineering services, consulting, and
training. The increase in license revenue as compared to the prior year period is due primarily to two large license sales of our Enterprise Edition product to a leader in the financial services industry and a large European OEM (original equipment
manufacturer) partner, partially offset by a decrease in license contracts in the $100,000 to $250,000 revenue range. Service revenues were essentially flat as compared to prior year period.



The increase in net revenue performance is broken out geographically in the
following table:

The increase in revenues in the United States versus the prior year period was due primarily to a $0.9
million sale of our Enterprise Edition product to a financial institution. The increase in EMEIA revenues over the prior year period was due primarily to a sale to a large European OEM partner of which $0.8 million was recognized as revenue. The
decrease in revenues in Canada, Latin America and Asia Pacific was due to a lower level of license sales in these regions.



International revenues were 55% of total revenues for the first fiscal quarter of 2005 and 63% for the same period in the prior year. The change is
primarily the result of the higher United States revenue in the current quarter related to a $0.9 million sale of our Enterprise Edition product to a financial institution. In total, international revenues were approximately constant between the two
periods.



For the three months ended December 31, 2004, one
financial company and one European software integrator accounted for 22% and 19%, respectively, of the Companys net revenues. For the three months ended December 31, 2003, Clarity Technology, our U.K. distributor, accounted for 16% of our net
revenues.

|--- | ---------------------------------------



Total cost of revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2004 increased by 11% from the prior year period primarily due to higher service revenues
and related costs.



The slightly lower cost of license revenues
in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 is due to lower current quarter technology costs amortization following our $0.4 million write-down during our fourth quarter fiscal 2004 relating to previously acquired New Moon intangible assets, and due to
lower labor costs and facility allocations as results of our fiscal 2004 restructuring plan. These reductions were partially offset by higher technology-related expenses related to our second quarter fiscal 2004 acquisition of Caststream
Technologies, plus higher royalty costs. The improvement in licenses gross margin during the current period is due to increased license revenues while our cost of license revenues decreased.



The increase in cost of service revenues of 22% for the three months ended
December 31, 2004 versus the prior year period was due to higher labor costs. Services gross margin decreased from the prior year period as a result of slightly lower service revenues and a small increase in labor costs.

Research and development expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2004 decreased by 13% from the prior year period primarily due to lower labor
costs relating to the 2004 Restructuring Plans reduction in force and lower facility costs allocations, partially offset by increased software maintenance and support costs.



Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2004 decreased by 14% from the prior
year period. The significant expense decrease in the three months ended December 31, 2004 is attributed to lower general and administrative costs during the quarter of $0.7 million. This decrease is due to the reversal during the current year period
of a $0.2 million reserve for a value added taxes (VAT) audit that is no longer considered required as the potential audit period has reached its statute of limitations, and higher legal and audit fees during the prior year period which
included expenses of $0.9 million related to the internal revenue investigation. The prior year period included a one time severance cost of $0.3 million, for one employee, paid in accordance with the Companys change in control agreement.
Partially offsetting these expense decreases in the quarter ended December 31, 2004 as compared to the prior year period were higher sales force compensation costs of $0.3 million, increased travel costs, higher audit fees and outside consulting
fees related to commencing our Sarbanes-Oxley compliance implementation. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenues were 98% in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 and 131% in the same period in fiscal 2004.



Legal settlement and litigation costs in the prior year period
related to a lawsuit that was filed against us in August 2003 and was subsequently settled as of October 29, 2004. The cost of the legal settlement and remaining litigation cost was accrued in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004.



Restructuring charge of $19,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2003
is related to the First Quarter Fiscal 2004 Restructuring Plan. There were no restructuring charges in the three months ended December 31, 2004.

Interest income increased due to our higher cash balances during the three months ended December 31, 2004 resulting primarily from the private equity
placements that occurred at the end of December 2003 and February 2004. Other income, net was $32,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 and other expense, net was $50,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2004, and primarily relates to foreign

Provision for income tax expense



The tax provisions for the first quarters of fiscal 2005 and fiscal 2004 reflect foreign taxes. Provision for income taxes
expense was $19,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2005 compared to $98,000 for the same period in fiscal year 2004 and is lower because of lower European taxable income in the current quarter.

Net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2004 was 54% lower than for the prior year period. The decrease in net loss is primarily due to higher
revenues and lower operating expenses.



Liquidity and Capital Resources



We have incurred net losses from operations during
periods of the first quarter of fiscal 2005, fiscal year 2004 and fiscal year 2003, of approximately $1.3 million, $15.7 million and $9.7 million, respectively. Net cash used for operating activities was $4.2 million for the three months ended
December 31, 2004, $11.3 million for fiscal year 2004 and $9.3 million for fiscal year 2003. We have an accumulated deficit of $141.8 million as of December 31, 2004. These conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to
continue as a going concern.



We have financed our operations
through private offerings of our common stock and bank borrowings. As of December 31, 2004, our principal source of liquidity included cash and cash equivalents of $5.6 million, representing 40% of total assets. The decrease in cash and cash
equivalents of $4.0 million in the three months ended December 31, 2004 is primarily due to our ongoing operating costs plus the costs of implementing our Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2004 Restructuring Plan. As of December 31, 2004 we have no outstanding
bank borrowings or other debt instruments.



Net cash used in
operating activities was $4.2 million during the three months ended December 31, 2004, compared to $1.5 million used for operating activities in the prior year period. The increase in the net cash used for operating activities in the current quarter
is due to a $2.0 million decrease in current liabilities and $1.6 million increase in trade receivables due to higher sales that occurred near the end of the current quarter, partially offset by lower selling, general and administrative expenses.



Net cash used in investing activities was $51,000 during the
three months ended December 31, 2004, compared to $12,000 used in investing activities in the prior year period. The current quarters use primarily relates to software purchases for general information technology requirements.



Net cash provided by financing activities was $0.2 million during the three
months ended December 31, 2004, compared to $2.2 million provided by financing activities in the prior year period. The current periods amount is the result of net proceeds from the issuance of common stock under our various stock option
plans. The prior year amount is primarily the result of net proceeds of $2.5 million from our private placement of common stock, partially offset by paying off our line of credit of $0.3 million.



Our days sales outstanding (DSO) at December 31, 2004 was 81 days, an
increase of 6 days from 75 days at December 31, 2003. The increase in DSO was due primarily to two large Enterprise sales totaling approximately $2.0 million which were invoiced during the last month of the quarter, partially offset by improved
accounts receivable collections. The accounts receivable over 30 days at December 31, 2004 were $60,000, a significant decrease from the $378,000 balance as of December 31, 2003.

##### Table of Contents

On December 26, 2003, we completed a private placement of common stock and warrants to the following
investors: Special Situations Technology Funds, Starlight Digital Technologies, LLC, an investment group in which Mr. Wilde acts as Managing Director, and an additional private investor, resulting in gross proceeds to us of approximately $2,750,000.
In connection with the financing, we paid placement fees in the amount of $232,303.



We had capital lease commitments of $32,000 in fiscal year 2004, which were completed by March 31, 2004. There are no capital lease commitments beyond fiscal 2004. We have operating lease commitments of $1.4 million
for fiscal year 2005 of which $0.3 million was incurred as of December 31, 2004, and no operating lease commitments extend past fiscal year 2007.



We believe, based on our current plans, existing cash and cash equivalents, and expected results from operations, that our existing funds may be
sufficient to meet our operating requirements through fiscal year 2005. However, given the uncertainty of projecting future revenue levels, additional financing may be required during fiscal year 2005 and thereafter. We cannot be assured that
additional financing will be available if required.



Risk Factors



Set forth below and elsewhere in this filing and in other
documents we file with the SEC are risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results contemplated by the forward-looking statements in this filing. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to
us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations.



We may not have adequate cash and cash equivalents to fund our operating requirements after fiscal year 2005 and it may be difficult for us to raise needed capital in the future.



Our net loss was $1.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2004, and we
have recorded substantial net losses during each of the past five fiscal years. During the quarter ended December 31, 2004, we continued to require funds to finance our operations. We have implemented a series of restructuring programs over the past
several years aimed at aligning our costs to our revenues and increasing our revenues to compete in the current business environment and over the long term. While we believe we have made progress in these areas, we must continue to manage our costs
and improve our revenues to compete in the existing business environment. We believe that, unless we effectively balance our cost structure to our revenues, we may not be able to access the capital markets for new borrowings or financings on
acceptable terms. Continued losses of the magnitude we recorded in fiscal 2004 are unsustainable. We have significant obligations due in fiscal 2005 and thereafter, including significant financing maturities related to a business purchase we
completed in fiscal 2003, operating lease payments and other on-going operating costs.



Should we require additional capital to fund ongoing operations beyond fiscal 2005, we have traditionally raised additional capital through public or private financing, strategic relationships or other arrangements.
We cannot be certain that such future funding, if or when needed, will be available on attractive terms, or at all. Furthermore, any additional equity financing may be dilutive to shareholders, and debt financing, if available, may involve
restrictive covenants. Strategic arrangements, if necessary to raise additional funds, may require us to relinquish our rights to certain of our technologies or products. If we fail to raise capital when needed, this may prevent us from continuing
operations as a going concern.



Fluctuations in our
operating results on a quarterly or annual basis could cause the market price of our common stock to decline.



The results of operations for any quarter or fiscal year are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected in future periods. Our operating
results have in the past been, and will continue to be, subject to quarterly and annual fluctuations as a result of a number of factors, including but not limited to:



| |  |  | overall technology spending;
| | - |  | ----------------------------



| |  |  | changes in general economic conditions and specific market conditions in the internet infrastructure industry;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | rapid technological changes that can adversely affect the demand for our products;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | fluctuations in demand for our products and services;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the publics perception of our Company and our products;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the long sales and implementation cycle for our products;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | general industry trends and the potential effects of price and product competition in the internet infrastructure industry;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the introduction and acceptance of new technologies;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------

As a consequence, operating results for any particular future period are difficult to predict, and such unpredictability may
cause the price of our stock to fluctuate or decline. We participate in a highly dynamic industry and future results could be subject to significant volatility, particularly on a quarterly basis. Our revenue and operating results may be
unpredictable due to our shipment patterns. We operate with little backlog of orders because our products are generally shipped as orders are received. In general, a substantial portion of our revenues have been booked and shipped in the third month
of each fiscal quarter, with a concentration of these revenues in the latter half of that third month. In addition, the timing of closing large license contracts and the release of new products and product upgrades increase the risk of quarter to
quarter fluctuations and the uncertainty of quarterly operating results. Our staffing and operating expense levels are based on an operating plan and are relatively fixed throughout the quarter. As a result, if revenues are not realized in the
quarter as expected, our expected operating results and cash balances could be adversely affected, and such effect could be substantial and could result in an operating loss and depletion of our cash balances.



We may never achieve profitability in the future.



We divested our server software and professional services divisions in May
2001. Since the divestiture, we have not achieved profitability, and may never generate sufficient revenues to achieve profitability. As of December 31, 2004 we had an accumulated deficit of $141.8 million. Many of our operating expenses are
relatively fixed in nature, particularly in the short term. We expect to continue to incur significant operating expenses in connection with our ongoing sales and marketing efforts. We also expect to incur noncash charges relating to amortization of
intangibles related to past acquisitions. We must therefore generate revenues sufficient to offset these increased expenses in order for us to become profitable. We cannot assure you that we will successfully generate sufficient revenues or that we
will ever achieve profitability. If we do achieve profitability, we may not be able to sustain our profitability.

We compete in the highly competitive internet infrastructure market.



The industry has become increasingly competitive and, accordingly, our
results may also be adversely affected by the actions of existing or future competitors, including the development of new technologies, the introduction of new products, and the reduction of prices by such competitors to gain or retain market share.
Our results of operations could be adversely affected if we are required to lower our prices significantly or our products or technologies are rendered obsolete or less attractive to customers.



We depend on the development and acceptance of new products in a rapidly
changing market.



The market of our products is
characterized by rapidly changing technology, evolution of new industry standards, and frequent introductions of new product enhancements. Our success will depend upon our continued ability to enhance our existing products, to introduce new products
on a timely and cost-effective basis to meet the evolving customer requirements, to achieve market acceptance for new product offerings, and to respond to emerging industry standards and other technological changes. There can be no assurance that we
will be successful in developing new products or enhancing our existing products, or that such new or enhanced products will receive market acceptance. Our success also depends upon our ability to license from third parties and to incorporate into
our products new technologies that become industry standards. There can be no assurance that we will continue to obtain such licenses on favorable terms or at all, or that we will successfully incorporate such third-party technologies into our own
products. We anticipate new releases of our products in our current fiscal year ending September 2005. There can be no assurance that such new releases will not be affected by technical problems or bugs, as is common in the software
industry. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that these or other future product introductions will not be delayed. Delays in the availability, or a lack of market acceptance, of new or enhanced products could have an adverse effect on our
business. There can be no assurance that product introductions in the future will not disrupt product revenues and adversely affect operating results.



We are exposed to general economic and market conditions that affect the software industry.



Any significant downturn in our customers markets, or domestic and
global conditions, which results in a decline in demand for software and services could harm the Companys business. The recent state of the economy has had a negative impact on the software industry. This could result in customers continuing
to delay or cancel orders for software. Any of these occurrences could have a significant impact on our operating results, revenues and costs and may cause the market price of our common stock to decline or become more volatile. Our future operating
results may be affected by various uncertain trends and factors that are beyond our control. These include adverse changes in general economic conditions and rapid or unexpected changes in the technologies affecting our products. The process of
developing new high technology products is complex and uncertain and requires accurate anticipation of customer needs and technological trends.

Any inability to hire, retain or integrate key personnel will impact our business.



We rely heavily on the contributions of our senior management and other key
management and technical personnel. The competition for such employees is extremely intense, particularly in the technology-centric regions where we operate. We may not be able to hire, retain and integrate such key personnel. The loss of any
individual member of our management team or other key employees may create disruptions in our business.



Furthermore, we have historically used stock options and other forms of equity-related compensation as a key component to our employee compensation
program in order to align employees interests with the interests of shareholders, encourage employee retention, and provide competitive compensation packages. In recent periods, a majority of our employee stock options have had exercise prices
in excess of our stock price, which may affect our ability to retain or attract present and prospective employees. In addition, the Financial Accounting Standards Board recently issued changes to United States Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles that will require us and other companies to record a charge to earnings for employee stock option grants and other equity incentives. These and other developments in the provision of equity compensation to employees could make it more
difficult to attract, retain and motivate employees and result in additional expenses to us.



Our lease on the corporate headquarters building expires in June 2005, and we have not entered into a new lease.



The lease on our corporate headquarters building in Santa Cruz, California, expires in June 2005. Our management believes it is in our best interest to
locate a new, appropriately-sized building. Our management is looking for new office space for our corporate headquarters, but we have not yet entered into a new lease, and may not be able to secure space on terms that are favorable to us, if at
all. Furthermore, moving from one building to another may be disruptive to our business, which could affect our results of operations.



Cost of revenues may be affected by changes in the mix of product and services.



Our overall cost of revenues may be affected by changes in the mix of net revenue contribution between licenses and
services, geographic regions and channels of distribution, as the costs associated with these revenues may be substantially different. We may also experience a change in margin as net revenues increase or decrease since technology costs and services
costs are fixed within certain volume ranges.



Our
operational results may be affected by price variations.



Our results of operations could be adversely affected if we were to lower our prices significantly. In the event we reduce our prices, our standard terms for selected distributors would be to provide credit for inventory ordered in the
previous 180 days, such credits to be applied against future purchases. As a matter of policy, we do not allow product returns for a refund. Product returns are generally allowances for stock balancing and are accompanied by compensating and
offsetting orders. Revenues are net of a provision for estimated future stock balancing and excess quantities above levels we believe are appropriate in our distribution channels.

##### Table of Contents

Our revenues may be affected by seasonality of revenues in the European and government market.



We experience seasonality of revenues for both the
European and the U.S. federal government markets. European revenues during the quarter ending June 30 are historically lower or relatively flat compared to the prior quarter. This reflects a reduction of customer purchases in anticipation of reduced
selling activity during the summer months. Sales to the US federal government generally increase during the quarter ending September 30. This seasonal increase is primarily attributable to increased purchasing activity by the U.S. federal government
prior to the close of its fiscal year. Additionally, net revenues for the first quarter of the fiscal year are typically lower or relatively flat compared to net revenues of the prior quarter.



We are dependent upon information received from third parties in order to
determine reserves for product returns.



We depend on
information received from our distribution partners in evaluating the inventory levels at distribution partners in the determination of reserves for the return of materials not sold, stock rotation and price protection. We have invested significant
effort into developing systems and procedures for determining the appropriate reserve level. However, if we do not receive timely or accurate information, our ability to monitor the inventory levels will be affected and may negatively impact our
business.



If we fail to manage the distribution of our
products and services properly, or if our distributors financial condition or operations weaken, our revenue could suffer.



We market products directly and through our resellers and distributors. Since direct sales may compete with the sales made by resellers and distributors,
these resellers and distributors may elect to use other suppliers that do not directly sell their own products. Any increase in our commitment to direct sales could cause conflict with some of our channel partners. Further, some of our resellers and
distributors may have insufficient financial resources and may not be able to withstand changes in business conditions, including economic weakness and industry consolidation. Revenue from indirect sales could suffer if our distributors and
resellers financial condition weakens.



Our business
depends on our proprietary rights and there is a risk that such rights will be infringed.



We attempt to protect our software with a combination of patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret protection, employee and third party nondisclosure agreements, license agreements, and other methods of protection.
Despite these precautions, it may be possible for unauthorized third parties to copy certain portions of our products or reverse engineer or obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. Further, certain provisions of our licenses,
including provisions protecting against unauthorized use, copying, transfer, and disclosure of the licensed product, may be unenforceable under the laws of certain jurisdictions. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect our
intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States. If we are unable to protect our proprietary rights, our competitive position may be adversely affected.

Risks of claims from third parties for intellectual property infringement could adversely affect our
business.



As the number of software products in the
industry increases and the functionality of these products further overlaps, we believe that software products will increasingly become subject to infringement claims. Companies and inventors are more frequently seeking to patent software and
business methods because of developments in the law that could extend the ability to obtain such patents. There can be no assurance that third parties will not assert infringement claims against us and/or against our suppliers of technology. In
general, our suppliers have agreed to indemnify us in the event any such claim involves supplier-provided software or technology, but responding to any infringement claim, whether or not involving a supplier, and regardless of its validity, could
result in costly litigation; injunctive relief or require us to obtain a license to intellectual property rights of those third parties. Licenses may not be available on reasonable terms, on terms compatible with the protection of our proprietary
rights, or at all. In addition, attention to these claims could divert our managements time and attention from developing our business. If a successful claim is made against us and we fail to develop or license a substitute technology, our
business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows could be materially adversely affected.



Our business may be adversely affected by events outside our control.



From time to time, we have experienced disruption of our internal systems due to viruses, which caused denial of service to
our customers and ourselves. While we have not been the target of software viruses specifically designed to impede the performance of our products, such viruses could be created and deployed against our products in the future. Similarly, experienced
computer programmers or hackers could attempt to penetrate our network security or the security of our web sites. A hacker who penetrates our network or web sites could misappropriate propriety information or cause interruptions of services. We
might be required to expend significant capital and resources to protect against, or to alleviate, problems caused by virus creators and/or hackers. In addition, war, power shortages, natural disasters, acts of terror, and regional and global health
risks could impact our ability to conduct business in certain regions around the world. Any of these events could have an adverse affect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.



Our results of operations may be affected by international economic
conditions and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.



Although our revenues are predominantly in U.S. dollars, substantial portions of our revenues are derived from sales to customers outside the United States. Trade sales to international customers represented 58%, 53% and 44% of total
revenues for fiscal 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Our revenues can be affected by general economic conditions in the United States, Europe and other international markets. Also, portions of our revenue and operating expenses are transacted in
foreign currencies. Our operating strategy and pricing take into account changes in exchange rates over time. However, our results of operations may be significantly affected in the short term by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

Our results of operations may be affected by the assessment of additional taxes.



We have operations in many countries other than the United States. Transfer
prices for services provided between the United States and these countries have been documented as reasonable, however, tax authorities could challenge these transfer prices and assess additional taxes on prior transactions. Any such assessment
could require that we record an additional tax liability in our statement of operations.



If we are unable to effectively integrate and develop the operations of our recent acquisitions, our business may suffer.



We acquired Caststream, Inc. (Caststream) in March 2004. We are in the process of integrating the operations,
certain employees, products and technology of Caststream into our business, and we face various risks as a result of these acquisitions including, but not limited to:



| |  |  | the ability to retain and motivate certain key Caststream employees;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the ability to retain and develop Caststream customers;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the failure to integrate the technology, operations and certain members of the workforce of Caststream with our business;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the failure to realize the potential or strategic benefits of the acquisitions;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the incurrence of substantial unanticipated integration costs; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the disruption of our ongoing business.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------



If we are not able to successfully integrate and develop the business of Caststream, our business may be negatively affected in future periods, which may
cause our stock price to decline. In addition, if the value of the intangible assets and goodwill acquired becomes impaired, we will be required to write down the value of the assets, which would negatively affect our financial results. We may incur
liabilities from Caststream that include liabilities for intellectual property infringement or indemnification of Caststreams customers for similar claims, which could materially and adversely affect our business.



We could make future acquisitions that may result in additional risks to
us.



We may continue to make investments in complementary
companies, products or technologies. If we acquire a company or a division of a company, we may experience difficulty integrating that company or divisions personnel and operations, which could negatively affect operating results. In addition:



| |  |  | key personnel of the acquired company may decide not to accept employment with us;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the ongoing business may be disrupted or receive insufficient management attention; and/or
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we may not be able to recognize the anticipated cost savings or other financial benefits.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In connection with future acquisitions, we may be required to assume the liabilities of the acquired
companies, including liabilities for intellectual property infringement or indemnification of customers of acquired businesses for similar claims, which could materially and adversely affect the business. We may have to incur debt or issue equity
securities to pay for any future acquisition, the issuance of which may involve restrictive covenants or be dilutive to existing shareholders.



Our stock is subject to substantial price and volume fluctuations due to a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, and those
fluctuations may prevent shareholders from reselling their stock at a profit.



The stock market in general, and the market for shares of technology companies in particular, has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations, which have often been unrelated to the operating performance of the
affected companies. Strategic factors such as new product introductions, acquisitions or restructurings by us or our competitors may have a significant impact on the market price of our common stock. Furthermore, quarter-to-quarter fluctuations in
operating results may have a significant impact on the market price of the stock. These conditions, as well as factors that generally affect the market for stocks of high technology companies, could cause the price of our stock to fluctuate
substantially over short periods.



Our stock was delisted
from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market on October 21, 2003, and is now listed on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Boards. Since then, the trading volume for our common stock has been low and there may not be a market for the resale of our common stock.



Our stock was de-listed by the Nasdaq on October 21,
2003, and is now listed on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol TTLA.OB. Trading our stock may be more difficult due to the OTC markets limited trading activity, and there may not be a market for the resale of our common stock.
This could cause a further decline in our stock price and reduced liquidity for our shareholders. Declines in the market price of our stock and limited liquidity could greatly impair our ability to raise capital through equity or debt financing.



We have issued a significant number of shares of our common
stock and warrants to purchase shares of our common stock over the past several years, substantially diluting our outstanding common stock. A substantial portion of those shares is eligible for sale on the open market, which may cause the trading
price of our common stock to fluctuate or decline.



In
connection with several transactions since June 2003, we have issued over 24,000,000 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase shares of our common stock to investors, employees and shareholders of acquired companies. While certain shares
and warrants are subject to trading restrictions, the majority of them are not. Therefore, we have little control over the timing of any sales of shares by any of the selling shareholders. As a result, the market price of our common stock may fall
if a large portion of those shares is sold in the public market. If we continue to issue shares of our common stock, or if a substantial portion of the outstanding warrants are exercised, further diluting the number of shares outstanding, this may
cause the price of our common stock to decline.

Our stock price may be volatile, and you may not be able to resell shares of our common stock at or
above the price you paid, or at all.



The trading price of
our common stock could be subject to wide fluctuations due to the factors discussed in this risk factors section and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In addition, the stock market in general, and technology companies in particular,
have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. The average trading volume of our common stock is low, and current trading prices and valuations may not be sustainable. These broad market and industry factors may decrease the market price of
our common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance. In addition, in the past, following periods of volatility in the overall market and the market price of a companys securities, securities class action litigation has often been
instituted against companies that have experienced significant declines in share price. This type of litigation, if instituted against us, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of our managements attention and resources.



Our corporate actions are substantially controlled by
principal shareholders.



Our principal shareholders
beneficially own approximately 51% of our outstanding common stock. These shareholders, if they acted together, could exert substantial control over matters requiring approval by our shareholders, including electing directors and approving mergers
or other business combination transactions. This concentration of ownership may also influence the outcome of a change in control of our company, which could deprive our shareholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their stock as part of
a sale of our company and might reduce our stock price. These actions may be taken even if they are opposed by our other shareholders.



We will continue to incur increased costs as a result of being a public company subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (SOA), as well as
new rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).



As a public company, we incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses. In addition, the SOA, as well as new rules subsequently implemented by the SEC, have required changes in corporate governance practices

companies. We expect these new rules and regulations to increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make certain activities more time-consuming
and costly. For example, as a result of the SOA and related rules adopted by the SEC, we have created additional board committees and are adopting comprehensive new policies regarding internal controls and disclosure controls and procedures. We are
currently evaluating and monitoring developments with respect to these new rules and are working towards becoming SOA Section 404 compliant. However, we cannot predict or estimate the full amount of additional costs related to these activities that
we are likely to incur or the timing of such costs, or if we will become SOA Section 404 compliant.



Recent Accounting Pronouncements



In July 2004, the FASB ratified Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) consensus on Issue No. 02-14, Whether an Investor Should Apply the Equity Method of Accounting to Investments Other Than Common
Stock, which provides guidance regarding application on the equity method of accounting to investments other than common stock. EITF Issue No. 02-14 is effective beginning in our first quarter of fiscal 2005. The adoption of EITF Issue No.
02-14 did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.



In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123R Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R), a revision to SFAS No. 123 Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS 123), and superseding APB Opinion No. 25 Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and its related implementation guidance. SFAS 123R establishes standards for the accounting for
transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, including obtaining employee services in share-based payment transactions. SFAS 123R applies to all awards granted after the required effective date and to
awards modified, repurchased, or cancelled after that date. Adoption of the provisions of SFAS 123R is effective as of the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. We have not yet quantified the
effects of the adoption of SFAS 123R, but it is expected that the new standard will result in significant stock-based compensation expense. The pro forma effects on net loss per share if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of
original SFAS 123 on stock compensation awards (rather than applying the intrinsic value measurement provisions of Opinion 25) are disclosed in Note 3 of this Form 10-Q. Although such pro forma effects of applying original SFAS 123 may be indicative
of the effects of adopting SFAS 123R, the provisions of these two statements differ in some important respects. The actual effects of adopting SFAS 123R will be dependent on numerous factors including, but not limited to, the valuation model chosen
by us to value stock-based awards; the assumed award forfeiture rate; the accounting policies adopted concerning the method of recognizing the fair value of awards over the requisite service period; and the transition method (as described below)
chosen for adopting SFAS 123R.



SFAS 123R will be effective for
our fiscal quarter beginning July 1, 2005, and requires the use of the Modified Prospective Application Method. Under this method SFAS 123R is applied to new awards and to awards modified, repurchased, or cancelled after the effective date.
Additionally, compensation cost for the portion of awards for which the requisite service has not been rendered (such as unvested options) that are outstanding as of the date of adoption shall be recognized as the remaining requisite services are
rendered. The compensation cost relating to unvested awards at the date of adoption shall be based on the grant-date fair value of those awards as calculated for pro forma disclosures under the original SFAS123. In addition, companies may use the
Modified Retrospective Application Method. This method may be applied to all prior years for which the original SFAS 123 was effective or only to prior interim periods in the year of initial adoption. If the Modified Retrospective Application Method
is applied, financial statements for prior periods shall be adjusted to give effect to the fair-value-based method of accounting for awards on a consistent basis with the pro forma disclosures required for those periods under the original SFAS 123.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk



Market-Rate Sensitive Instruments and Risk Management



We are exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, and equity security prices. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.



Interest-Rate Risk



As of December 31, 2004 the Company had cash of $5.6 million, consisting of
cash and highly liquid money market instruments with maturities of less than 90 days. Because of the short maturities of these instruments, a sudden change in market interest rates would not have a material impact on the fair value of the portfolio.
We would not expect operating results or cash flows to be affected to any significant degree by the effect of a sudden change in market interest on our portfolio.



Foreign Exchange Risks



Currently, we denominate sales to some European customers in Euros and also incur expenses related to our European operations in British Pounds and Euros.
We do not believe the foreign exchange risk is great enough to warrant the purchase of forward foreign exchange contracts. A hypothetical change of 10% in the foreign currency exchange rates would have an impact on our consolidated financial
position or results of operations of approximately $ 0.2 million.



Equity
Security Price Risk



As of December 31, 2004 the Company
has investments in small number of privately held companies, the carrying value of which is now zero. Historically, we do not hedge our investments in equity securities.



Item 4. Controls and Procedures



(a) Evaluation
of disclosure controls and procedures.



We have carried
out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of
future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote. Based upon their evaluation, the

Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that material information
required to be disclosed in our reports that are filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.



(b) Changes in internal controls.



There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting
that occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting. We will continue to assess disclosure controls and procedures and will take
any further actions that are deemed necessary.

Part II. Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings



On
October 19, 2004, we entered into a Settlement Agreement and General Release of all Claims with a former employee who had filed a lawsuit against us in August 2003, pursuant to which the plaintiff gave Tarantella and its officers, directors,
affiliates, subsidiaries, agents, employees, attorneys, successor and assigns a full release from all claims, rights, demands, actions, obligations, liabilities, and causes of action of any and every kind, nature and character whatsoever, whether
based on a tort, contract, statute, or any other theory of recovery, and whether for compensatory or punitive damages which the plaintiff may now have, has ever had, or may in the future have, arising or in any way connected with the
plaintiffs employment or contractual relationship with Tarantella, or the manner in which those relationships terminated in exchange for a settlement amount of $680,000. This amount was expensed in fiscal 2004. A Notice of Settlement was filed
October 21, 2004 and a Request for Dismissal with Prejudice was filed on or around November 9, 2004 in the Superior Court of California, Santa Clara County.



No other material legal proceedings are pending to which we are a party. We are responding to claims arising in the ordinary course of business. We intend
to defend ourselves vigorously in these matters. Our management believes that it is unlikely that the outcome of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial statements, although there can be no assurance in this regard.
