ITEM 1. BUSINESS

THE COMPANY

Unify Corporation ("Unify" or the "Company") develops, markets and supports
software for extending business applications to the Web. The Company delivers
feature rich products and services for organizations growing their business on
the Web based on open, Java technologies. Unify's products provide a robust,
scalable foundation for building, deploying and managing online applications
that help companies run their e-commerce and e-business sites.

According to Giga Information Group, the size of the Enterprise JavaBeans
("EJB") application server market is estimated to have been $585 million in
1999. Giga Information Group expects the market to grow to $1.64 billion in 2000
and reach $9 billion by 2003. Also, in less than two years the application
server market has grown to include more than 40 vendors. Additionally, Sun
Microsystems estimates that there are approximately 750,000 Java developers
around the world and growing. These developers and the companies employing these
developers are using EJB technology and Web application server technology to
build robust Java-based Web sites.

Unify is pursuing this market opportunity with its flagship product line, Unify
eWave. Unify eWave provides organizations with production-ready, scalable and
affordable software for building, deploying and managing applications built on
the Java 2, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) Platform. The Unify eWave line features a
Web application server and an EJB application server in Unify eWave Engine, and
an e-commerce framework in Unify eWave Commerce. These products enable
developers to rapidly build production-ready, scalable Internet and e-commerce
applications that are easy to manage and run with minimal down time.

In addition to the Unify eWave product line, the Company offers Unify VISION,
which is a comprehensive fourth generation language ("4GL") application server.
The Company also continues to enhance and support its legacy product Unify
DataServer, a family of database management system products, and ACCELL/SQL, a
family of client/server application development tools. In addition to software
products, the Company offers training, consulting and support services to its
customers.

The Company's customers consist primarily of corporate information technology
("IT") departments, solutions integrators ("SIs"), application service providers
("ASPs"), independent software vendors ("ISVs"), value added resellers ("VARs")
and distributors. The Company markets its products directly to these markets
through its sales organizations in the United States, United Kingdom, France and
Japan and indirectly to end-users through a worldwide network of 15
distributors. The Company markets products to organizations in vertical
industries in the Americas, Europe, Japan, Asia Pacific, Australia, South
Africa, India and Russia.


                                       2
<PAGE>

In addition to its facilities in Sacramento, the Company also has offices in the
United Kingdom, France and Japan. The Company closed its San Jose office in
October 2000. The principal geographic markets for the Company's products are in
the Americas, Europe, Japan, Asia Pacific and Australia.

On September 30, 2000 the Company moved its principal executive offices to
Sacramento, California. On October 30, 2000 the Company relocated its operation
to a new facility at 2101 Arena Blvd. Suite 100, Sacramento, California 95834.
The telephone number is (916) 928-6400.

In April 2000, the Company acquired privately held New Atlanta Communications,
LLC ("New Atlanta"), a provider of Java Servlet and Java Server Pages ("JSP")
technology. In November 2000, New Atlanta and the Company agreed to rescind the
acquisition agreement and enter into a three year OEM agreement in which the
Company is able to embed New Atlanta's ServletExec with Unify eWave products.
The agreement is renewable for an additional three years.

Unify was initially incorporated in California in 1980 and was reincorporated in
Delaware in 1996.

publish-and-subscribe capabilities. These services are designed to lower total
cost of ownership by allowing organizations to effectively manage their
applications from a single point of control. VISION AppServer is available for
Microsoft Windows NT, Linux, and all leading UNIX server platforms.

UNIFY VISION APPBUILDER

The development environment for VISION AppServer is VISION AppBuilder, an object
oriented, repository-based component framework designed to enable developers to

components enable developers to focus on the business components and processes
that make up the heart of their applications. VISION AppBuilder supports
components developed in C, C++ and Java, and provides a high-level business
language that allows developers to focus on defining business rules rather than
on the complexity of the underlying technologies.

MARKETS

The Company's products are marketed and distributed to a wide range of customers
ranging from Internet startups to small and medium size companies to Global 2000
businesses. As of September 30, 2000, the Company's customers worldwide,
included Ameritech, AT&T, Bear Stearns, Bell Atlantic, Cisco Systems, ezgov.com,
i2


                                       4
<PAGE>

Technologies, Lucent Technologies, mysimon.com, Morgan Stanley Dean Witter &
Co., Motorola, Netegrity Inc., Pacific Bell, Remedy Corp, Hitachi Systems
Europe, Credit Lyonnais and Barclays Capital.

No customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company's revenues for fiscal
2000, 1999 or 1998.

Unify's products help organizations develop applications that reduce the total
cost of ownership of the application lifecycle. Companies are deploying Web
applications to address a wide range of strategic business needs including
selling direct over the Internet, Web-enabling their supply chain or
distribution channel or any other business-to-business initiative.

The use of open standards, including Java technology, to achieve the low cost of
deploying Web applications helps companies achieve a significant competitive
advantage because they are not locked into one vendor or a proprietary
technology for their applications. The Company believes that the openness,
scalability and affordability of the Unify eWave product line makes Unify
attractive to rapidly growing companies. Unify's target market includes
mid-market IT organizations, ISVs, VARs and ASPs.

SALES, MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION

Unify markets its products and professional services domestically through a
combination of direct sales and indirect sales channels, including VARs,
distributors and SIs. The Company's marketing efforts are primarily directed at
broadening the market for Unify eWave by increasing awareness and informing
customers of the capabilities and benefits of the products and services, and
stimulating demand across all market segments. Marketing activities include
public relations and advertising, publishing newsletters, direct mailings,
product datasheets, attending trade shows, coordinating the Company's
participation in industry programs and forums, establishing and maintaining
close relationships with partners, and establishing and maintaining close
relationships with recognized industry analysts.

The Company markets its products internationally through subsidiaries in the
United Kingdom, France, and Japan, and through distributors in Europe, Japan,
Asia Pacific, Australia, Latin America, South Africa, India, and Russia.
International revenues accounted for 56%, 51% and 56% of total revenues in
fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The Company's network of international
distributors supplements its targeted direct sales presence.

The Company complements its domestic and international direct sales efforts with
its indirect sales channels. Indirect sales channels include VARs, SIs, and
distributors. Such indirect sales channels leverage the Company's own sales,
support and consulting resources in providing complete solutions to customers.

In addition, the Company plans to continue to leverage its installed base of
Unify DataServer and ACCELL/SQL customers. The Company's sales and marketing
strategy in part targets this installed base with the objective of generating
Unify Vision and Unify eWave Engine license revenues, as a segment of this
customer base migrates to enterprise network and Internet applications. The
Company also continues to market and support its Unify DataServer and ACCELL/SQL
product families to serve customers that are not yet ready to move to enterprise
network and Internet environments.

In November 2000, the Company launched its e-commerce site, www.unifyewave.com,
that allows visitors to download, evaluate and purchase products. Electronic
distribution provides the Company with a low-cost, globally accessible, 24-hour
sales channel.

As of April 30, 2000, the Company had 39 employees engaged in sales and
marketing activities, 19 in North America, 14 in Europe, and 6 in Japan.


                                       5

SUPPORT AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICES

The Company believes that superior support and professional services, including
product support and maintenance, consulting services and customer training, are
critical for achieving and maintaining customer satisfaction and continued
license sales.

SUPPORT

Due to the complexity of enterprise network computing and the emergence of the
Internet, support services must be able to address issues which arise from
components of the customer's system beyond the Company's products such as
multiple databases, computing platforms and operating systems. The Company has
extensive experience in supporting Web application development and database
products.

The Company offers modular customer support programs which can be customized to
match the customers' development cycles and modified as needs change. All
support levels provide telephone, e-mail and facsimile access, enabling
customers to log inquiries for resolution by the Company's support staff.
Customers can tailor service levels including response time, information
reporting, and other features such as 24-hour a day, seven-day a week support.
Also, the Company uses customer feedback as a source of ideas for product
improvements and enhancements. During each of the past three fiscal years, over
80% of the Company's support customers have renewed their support contracts.

CONSULTING

The Company offers a full range of consulting services through its consulting
organization as well as through partnerships with third party solution
providers. The objective of Unify's consulting services organization ("UCS") is
to deliver solutions that help companies maximize return on investment and get
to market quickly. UCS provides a level of consulting support that is tailored
to customer-defined needs. This means that UCS is prepared to guide customers on
development plans, assist with hands-on development tasks, or take complete
responsibility for project completion. Engagement terms can range from the use
of a single consultant for completion of a one-week task to a full project team
engaged to complete an effort that stretches over several months.

TRAINING

The Company is committed to offering its customers a comprehensive selection of
training courses and materials. Customers may attend a broad range of courses
provided on a regularly scheduled basis at Unify training centers located in
Sacramento, California; London, England; Paris, France; and Tokyo, Japan. The
Company also offers on-site training at customers' facilities.

As of April 30, 2000, the Company had a total of 26 employees engaged in
providing professional services, 20 in support and 6 in consulting and training.
Of those employees, 17 were located in the United States, 5 were located in
Europe and 4 were located in Japan.

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

The computer software industry is highly competitive and rapidly changing. Since
its inception, the Company has made substantial investments in product
development and anticipates that it will continue to commit significant
resources to product development in the future to enhance existing product lines
and to develop new products to meet new market opportunities. Most of the
Company's current software products have been developed internally; however, the
Company has acquired certain software components from third parties in the past
and expects that it will do so again in the future.

Due to various factors, the Company may change the development projects that it
pursues in fiscal 2001 or may not be successful in completing these projects.
Even if completed, the Company cannot be sure that such projects


                                       6
<PAGE>

will be completed without errors or that the products, which result from such
projects, will achieve market acceptance.

The Company's product development activities are conducted at its Sacramento,
California facility. As of April 30, 2000, the Company had a total of 47
employees in product development and porting, including 42 software development
engineers. The market for qualified development engineers remains highly
competitive. The Company's product development expenditures for fiscal 2000,
1999, and 1998 were $6.7 million, $5.9 million and $5.7 million, respectively,
representing approximately 33%, 19% and 23% of total revenues for those periods.

COMPETITION

The Company has experienced and expects to continue to experience intense
competition from current and future competitors. With the introduction of
Unify eWave, the Company's competition includes Internet application server
vendors BEA Systems Inc. ("BEA"), Allaire Corporation ("Allaire"),
SilverStream Software, Inc. ("SilverStream") and IBM. With its VISION
AppServer and VISION AppBuilder products, the Company competes with Sybase,
Progress Software Corporation ("Progress") and Sun .

For its Unify DataServer and ACCELL/SQL products, the Company's business
generally derives from sales of license upgrades or additional deployment
licenses. As a result, the competitive factors are generally the consideration
by a customer as to whether to develop a new application rather than whether to
use a competitor's products with the existing application built using the
Company's products. Vendors of products that compete with the Company's Unify
DataServer and ACCELL/SQL products include companies such as Oracle, Informix
and Sybase.

Many of the Company's competitors have significantly greater financial,
technical, marketing and other resources than Unify. The Company's competitors
may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes
in customer requirements or devote greater resources to the development,
promotion and sale of their products than the Company. Also, many current and
potential competitors have greater name recognition and more extensive customer
bases that could be leveraged.

The Company also expects to face additional competition as other established and
emerging companies enter the Internet application server and e-commerce tools
markets, and new products and technologies are introduced. Increased competition
could result in price reductions, fewer customer orders, reduced gross margins
and loss of market share, any one of which could materially and adversely affect
the Company's business, operating results, and financial condition. In addition,
current and potential competitors may make strategic acquisitions or establish
cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties, thereby
increasing the ability of their products to address the needs of the Company's
prospective customers. Accordingly, it is possible that new competitors or
alliances among current and new competitors may emerge and rapidly gain
significant market share. Such competition could materially adversely affect the
Company's ability to sell additional licenses and maintenance and support
renewals on terms favorable to the Company. Further, competitive pressures could
require the Company to reduce the price of its products and related services,
which could materially adversely affect the Company's business, operating
results, and financial condition. There can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to compete successfully against current and future competition, and
the failure to do so would have a material adverse effect upon the Company's
business, operating results, and financial condition.

The Company believes that the most significant competitive factors include ease
of use and time to market for application development and deployment;
application management functionality; product performance and quality; product
architecture and scalability; conformance applicable standards, customer
support; consulting and training services; and price. The Company believes that
it presently competes favorably with respect to each of these factors. However,
the Company's market is continually evolving and there can be no assurance that
the Company will be able to compete successfully against current and future
competitors; the failure to do so would have a material adverse effect upon the
Company's business, operating results, and financial condition.


                                       7
<PAGE>

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

The Company relies on a combination of copyright, trademark and trade-secret
laws, non-disclosure agreements and other methods to protect its proprietary
technology. Despite the Company's efforts to protect its proprietary rights,
unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of the Company's products or to
obtain and use information that the Company regards as proprietary. Policing
unauthorized use of the Company's products is difficult, and while the Company
is unable to determine the extent to which piracy of its software products
exists, software piracy can be expected to be a persistent problem. In addition,
the laws of some foreign countries do not protect the Company's proprietary
rights as fully as do the laws of the United States. There can be no assurance
that the Company's means of protecting its proprietary rights in the United
States or abroad will be adequate or that competition will not independently
develop similar technology.

Although there are no pending lawsuits against the Company regarding
infringement of any existing patents or other intellectual property rights or
any notices that the Company is infringing the intellectual property rights of
others, there can be no assurance that such infringement claims will not be
asserted by third parties in the future. If any such claims are asserted, there
can be no assurance that the Company will be able to defend such claim or obtain
licenses on reasonable terms. The Company's involvement in any patent dispute or
other intellectual property dispute or action to protect trade secrets and
know-how may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating
results, and financial condition. Adverse determinations in any litigation may
subject the Company to significant liabilities to third parties, require the
Company to seek licenses from third parties, and prevent the Company from
developing and selling its products. Any of these situations could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results, and
financial condition.

The Company is dependent on third-party suppliers for software, which is
embedded in certain of its products. Although the Company believes that the
functionality provided by software which is licensed from third parties is
obtainable from multiple sources or could be developed by the Company if any
such third-party licenses were terminated or not renewed or if these third
parties fail to develop new products in a timely manner, the Company could be
required to develop an alternative approach to developing its products, which
could require payment of substantial fees to third parties, internal development
costs and delays and might not be successful in providing the same level of
functionality. Such delays, increased costs, or reduced functionality could
materially adversely affect the Company's business, operating results, and
financial condition.

EMPLOYEES

As of April 30, 2000, the Company had a total of 136 employees, including 47 in
product development, 39 in sales and marketing, 26 in support, consulting, and
training, and 24 in finance, information systems, operations and general
administration. Of these employees, 98 were located in the United States, 24
were located in Europe, and 14 were located in Japan.

The success of the Company depends in large part upon its ability to attract and
retain qualified employees, particularly senior management, engineering, direct
sales, and support personnel. The competition for such employees is intense.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in attracting or
retaining key employees. Any failure by the Company to attract and retain
qualified senior management, engineering, direct sales, and support personnel
could materially adversely affect the Company's business, operating results, and
financial condition. None of the Company's employees are represented by a
collective bargaining agreement, nor has the Company experienced any work
stoppage. The Company considers its relations with its employees to be good.

                                  RISK FACTORS

IN EVALUATING THE COMPANY'S BUSINESS, READERS SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE
BUSINESS RISKS DISCUSSED IN THIS SECTION IN ADDITION TO THE OTHER INFORMATION
PRESENTED IN THIS ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K AND IN THE COMPANY'S OTHER FILINGS
WITH THE SEC.


                                       8

UNCERTAINTY ABOUT ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS GOING CONCERN

The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going
concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the
satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company incurred a net
loss of $7,099,000 during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2000, and has an
accumulated deficit of $47,127,000 as of April 30, 2000. Additionally, the
Company has experienced a decline in revenues and, as a result of the Audit
Committee's investigation as discussed in Item 7, and shareholder litigation,
as discussed in Item 3, has incurred and may continue to incur a significant
increase in expenses. The Company believes that it will need additional
financing to meet cash requirements for its operation, and the availability
of such financing on terms acceptable to the Company is uncertain. These
factors among others, indicate that the Company may be unable to continue as
a going concern.

The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating
to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the
amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the
Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company's continuation
as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash
flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis, to obtain additional
financing or refinancing as may be required, and ultimately to attain
successful operations. Management has realigned the Company's operation
including a reduction in its workforce. Management plans to further reduce
operating costs, seek financing acceptable to the Company, and increase
marketing and sales efforts. There is no assurance that management's plans
will be successful or if successful, that they will result in the Company
continuing as a going concern. There can be no assurance that additional
financing will be available, or that, if available, it will be available on
terms acceptable to the Company or its stockholders. The Company's ability to
obtain additional financing on acceptable terms will be adversely affected by
the fact that NASDAQ has suspended trading in the Company's Common Stock and
subsequently delisted the Company's Common Stock from the NASDAQ National
Market. If adequate funds are not available to satisfy the Company's
short-term or long-term capital requirements, the Company will be required to
further reduce its operations.

PENDING LITIGATION

Beginning on July 31 and through October 2000, a series of purported class
action complaints were filed in the U.S. District Court, for the Northern
District of California, against Unify and certain of its directors and former
officers. The plaintiffs in each of these actions claim to be suing on behalf of
a class of persons who purchased the Company's Common Stock during periods
specified in the complaint.

The class periods generally alleged are May 19, 1999 to July 28, 2000. The
complaints allege that Unify and certain of its former executives caused
materially false and misleading financial statements to be issued for the
fiscal year 1999 and for each of its first three fiscal year 2000 quarters.
The complaints allege that, as a result of Unify's alleged misrepresentations
and omissions, the price of Unify's stock was artificially inflated during
the class period, allowing company insiders to sell their stock at
artificially high prices and causing investors to buy Unify stock at
artificially high prices. The complaints seek an unspecified amount in
damages. These actions have not yet been consolidated.

From August 2000 through October 2000, four shareholder derivative actions
were filed; three in the Superior Court of the State of California and one in
the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. The
plaintiffs in these actions each claims to be suing on behalf of the Company.
These actions name as defendants certain of the Company's present and former
officers and directors. The complaints allege substantially the same conduct,
and concern the same time period, as the shareholder class actions filed in
the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. The
complaints allege that, as a result of this conduct, certain of present and
former officers and directors breached their fiduciary duties to Unify and
engaged in improper insider trading. The complaints seek an unspecified
amount in damages and injunctive relief.

The Company and the individual defendants intend to defend all of these
actions vigorously. The ultimate outcome of these matters cannot be presently
determined. There can be no assurance that any of the complaints discussed
above will be resolved without costly litigation, or in a manner that is not
adverse to the Company's financial


                                       9
<PAGE>

position, results of operations or cash flows. No estimate can be made of the
possible loss or possible range of loss associated with the resolution of these
contingencies.

ADVERSE EFFECTS OF THE UNCERTAINTY ABOUT THE COMPANY'S ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS
A GOING CONCERN AND PENDING LITIGATION

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

INTENSE COMPETITION

The Company has experienced and expects to continue to experience intense
competition from current and future competitors. With the introduction of Unify
eWave, the Company began competing with Internet application server vendors
including BEA, Allaire and IBM. In addition, Unify competes with e-commerce
solution providers, among them BroadVision, IBM, Oracle, and Informix. The
Company also continues to compete with vendors of traditional enterprise network
development tools including, among others, Sun, Oracle and Sybase. Companies
offering products competitive with the Company's Unify DataServer and ACCELL/SQL
products include Oracle, Sybase and Informix.

Many of the Company's competitors have significantly greater financial,
technical, marketing and other resources than the Company. The Company's
competitors may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies
and changes in customer requirements or devote greater resources to the
development, promotion and sale of their products than the Company. Also, many
current and potential competitors have greater name recognition and more
extensive customer bases that could be leveraged. The Company expects to face
additional competition as other established and emerging companies enter the
Internet application server, e-commerce, and enterprise network development
tools markets and new products and technologies are introduced. Increased
competition could result in price reductions, fewer customer orders, reduced
gross margins and loss of market share, any one of which could materially
adversely affect the Company's business, operating results, and financial
condition. In addition, current and potential competitors may make strategic
acquisitions or establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with
third parties, thereby increasing the ability of their products to address the
needs of the Company's prospective customers. Accordingly, it is possible that
new competitors or alliances among current and new competitors may emerge and
rapidly gain significant market share. Such competition could materially
adversely affect the Company's ability to sell additional licenses and
maintenance and support renewals on terms favorable to the Company. Further,
competitive pressures could require the Company to reduce the price of its
products and related services, which could materially adversely affect the
Company's business, operating results, and financial condition. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to compete successfully against current
and future competition, and the failure to do so would have a material adverse
effect upon the Company's business, operating results, and financial condition.
See "Business - Competition."

EMPLOYEE RETENTION

The Company's future performance depends on the continued service of key
technical, sales and senior management personnel. The Company's technical,
sales or senior management personnel are not bound by an employment
agreement. The loss of the services of one or more of the Company's officers
or other key employees could seriously harm the business, operating results
and financial condition. Future success also depends on the Company's
continuing ability to attract and retain highly qualified technical, sales
and managerial personnel. Competition for such


                                       10
<PAGE>

personnel is intense, and the Company may fail to retain its key technical,
sales and managerial employees, or attract, assimilate or retain other highly
qualified technical, sales and managerial personnel in the future.

HISTORY OF OPERATING LOSSES; TRANSITION OF BUSINESS

The Company has incurred net losses in four of the past five fiscal years. The
Company's ability to achieve revenue growth and profitability are substantially
dependent upon the success of its current and future Internet products. No
assurance can be given that Unify's current or future Internet products will
achieve market acceptance or that the Company will attain profitability. See
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations."

FLUCTUATING QUARTERLY RESULTS AND SEASONALITY; UNCERTAINTY OF OPERATING RESULTS

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

Due to the foregoing factors, quarterly revenues and operating results are
difficult to forecast. Revenues are also difficult to forecast because the
market for Internet and e-commerce application development software is rapidly
evolving, and the Company's sales cycle, from initial evaluation to purchase and
the providing of maintenance services, is lengthy and varies substantially from
customer to customer. Because the Company normally delivers products within a
short time of receiving an order, it typically does not have any material
backlog. As a result, to achieve its quarterly revenue objectives, the Company
is dependent upon obtaining orders in any given quarter for shipment in that
quarter. Furthermore, because many customers place orders toward the end of a
fiscal quarter, the Company generally recognizes a substantial portion of its
revenues at the end of a quarter. As the Company's expense levels are based in
significant part on the Company's expectations as to future revenues and are
therefore relatively fixed in the short term, if revenue levels fall below
expectations, operating results are likely to be disproportionately adversely
affected.

The Company expects that its operating results will be affected by seasonal
trends. The Company also anticipates that it may experience relatively weaker
demand in fiscal quarters ending July 31 and October 31 as a result of
reduced business activity in Europe during the summer months.

LENGTHY SALES CYCLE

The Company's products are typically used to develop applications that are
critical to a customer's business, and the purchase of the Company's products is
often part of a customer's larger business process re-engineering initiative or
implementation of enterprise network or Internet computing. As a result, the
licensing and implementation of the Company's software products generally
involve a significant commitment of management attention and resources by
prospective customers. Accordingly, the Company's sales process is subject to
delays associated with the long approval process that typically accompanies
significant initiatives or capital expenditures. The Company's business,
operating results, and financial condition could be materially adversely
affected if customers reduce or delay orders. There can be no assurance that the
Company will not continue to experience these and additional delays in the
future. Such delays may contribute to significant fluctuations of quarterly
operating results in the future and may adversely affect those results.


                                       11
<PAGE>

DEPENDENCE ON NEW PRODUCT ACCEPTANCE; DEPENDENCE ON GROWTH OF INTERNET AND
E-COMMERCE TOOLS MARKET

The Company currently expects its Internet products and related services to
account for an increasingly significant percentage of the Company's future
revenues and accordingly the Company is devoting a substantial portion of its
resources to these products. As a result, factors adversely affecting the
pricing of or demand for Unify's Internet products such as, but not limited to,
competition or technological change, would have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, operating results, and financial condition. The Company's
future financial performance will depend in significant part on the successful
development, introduction and customer acceptance of new and enhanced versions
of its Internet products. There can be no assurance that the Company will timely
and successfully develop, introduce and sell such new or enhanced versions. See
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations - Overview;" "Business - Products" and "- Product Development."

To date, a limited number of the Company's customers have completed the
development and deployment of Internet and e-commerce applications using its
Internet products. If the Company's customers are not able to successfully
develop and deploy Internet and e-commerce applications with the Unify eWave
product family or Unify VISION, the viability of these products could be
questioned and the Company's reputation could be damaged, which could have
material adverse effects on the Company's business, operating results, and
financial condition. In addition, the Company expects that a significant
percentage of its future revenues will be derived from sales to existing
customers of its client/server products. If these existing customers fail to
migrate to Internet and e-commerce applications, purchase competitive products,
or have difficulty deploying applications built with Unify's Internet products,
the Company's relationships with these customers, revenues from sales of the
Company's Internet products and other products, and the Company's business,
operating results, and financial condition could be materially adversely
affected. See "Selected Financial Data" and "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

There can be no assurance that the market for Internet and e-commerce
applications and associated development tools will continue to grow. If the
Internet and e-commerce market fails to grow, or grows more slowly than the
Company currently anticipates, the Company's business, operating results, and
financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

DECLINE IN REVENUE FROM MATURE PRODUCTS

A significant portion of the Company's revenues to date have been attributable
to its client/server products. Revenues derived from the sales of these products
declined in relationship to newer product lines during the last several fiscal
years. While the Company expects that this decline may continue, revenues from
the sales of these products will continue to represent an important portion of
the Company's revenues for at least the next few years. Although the Company is
continuing to selectively invest in the development, sales, marketing and
support of such products, there can be no assurance that revenues from such
products will not decline faster than expected. If revenues from such products
decline materially or at a more rapid rate than the Company currently
anticipates, the Company's business, operating results, and financial condition
would be materially adversely affected. See "Business - Products;" "Selected
Financial Data" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations."

RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE

The software market in which the Company competes is characterized by rapid
technological change, frequent introductions of new and enhanced products,
changes in customer demands and evolving industry standards. The introduction of
products embodying new technologies and the emergence of new industry standards
can render existing products obsolete and unmarketable. The Company's future
success will depend in part upon its ability to address the increasingly
sophisticated needs of its customers by supporting existing and emerging
hardware, software, database and networking platforms and by developing and
introducing enhancements to the Unify eWave product family, Unify VISION and any
other new products in a timely way that keep pace with such


                                       12
<PAGE>

technological developments, emerging industry standards and customer
requirements. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in
developing and marketing enhancements to Unify eWave, Unify VISION and new
products that respond to technological change, evolving industry standards or
customer requirements, that the Company will not experience difficulties that
could delay or prevent the successful development, introduction and sale of such
enhancements or products or that such enhancements or products will adequately
meet the requirements of the marketplace and achieve any significant degree of
market acceptance. If the release dates of any future Unify eWave or Unify
VISION enhancements, or new products are delayed or if when released they fail
to achieve market acceptance, the Company's business, operating results, and
financial condition would be materially adversely affected. In addition, the
introduction or announcement of new product offerings or enhancements by the
Company or the Company's competitors may cause customers to defer or forgo
purchases of current versions of Unify eWave or Unify VISION, which could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results, and
financial condition. See "Business - Product Development."

DEPENDENCE ON INDIRECT SALES CHANNELS

A significant portion of the Company's total revenues are derived from indirect
sales channels, including VARs and distributors. Revenues from VARs and
distributors accounted for approximately 56%, 59%, and 57% of the Company's
software license revenues for fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The
success of the Company therefore depends in part upon the performance of its
indirect sales channels, over which the Company has limited influence. The
Company's ability to achieve significant revenue growth in the future will
depend in part on its success in maintaining and expanding its indirect sales
channels worldwide. The loss of any of the Company's major channel partners,
either to competitive products offered by other companies or to products
developed internally by those partners, or the failure to attract effective new
channel partners could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
operating results, and financial condition. See "Business - Sales, Marketing and
Distribution."

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS AND SALES

Revenues derived from international customers accounted for 56%, 51% and 56% of
total revenues in fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. If the revenues
generated by international operations are not adequate to offset the expense of
maintaining such operations, the Company's business, operating results, and
financial condition will be materially adversely affected. Although the Company
has had international operations for a number of years, there can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to successfully market, sell and deliver
its products in these markets. In addition to the uncertainty as to the
Company's ability to expand its international presence, there are certain risks
inherent in doing business on an international level, such as: unexpected
changes in regulatory requirements; export restrictions, tariffs and other trade
barriers; difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations; longer
payment cycles; problems in collecting accounts receivable; political
instability; fluctuations in currency exchange rates; seasonal reductions in
business activity during the summer months in Europe and certain other parts of
the world; and potentially adverse tax consequences, any of which could
adversely impact the success of the Company's international operations. There
can be no assurance that one or more of these factors will not have a material
adverse effect on the Company's future international operations and,
consequently, on the Company's business, operating results, and financial
condition. In addition, the Company's subsidiaries in Europe and Japan operate
in local currencies. Foreign currency gains and losses on local currency
intercompany accounts held in the U.S. have been immaterial to date; however, if
the value of the U.S. dollar increases relative to foreign currencies, the
Company's business, operating results, and financial condition could be
materially adversely affected. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations," "Business - Sales, Marketing and
Distribution" and Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

EUROPEAN MONETARY CONVERSION

On January 1, 1999, eleven of the fifteen member countries of the European Union
("EU") entered into a three-year transition phase during which a common
currency, the "Euro," was introduced. Between January 1, 1999 and January 1,
2002, governments, companies and individuals may conduct business in these
countries using both the


                                       13
<PAGE>

Euro and existing national currencies. On January 1, 2002, the Euro will become
the sole currency in these countries.

During this transition phase, the Company continues to evaluate the impact of
conversion to the Euro on its business. In particular, Unify is reviewing
whether its internal software systems can process transactions denominated
either in current national currencies or in the Euro, including converting
currencies using computation methods specified by the EU. The Company is also
reviewing the potential cost if it must modify or replace any of its internal
software systems. Finally, Unify is analyzing the effect of the conversion to
the Euro on the prices of its products in the affected countries.

Based on current information, the Company does not expect the cost of any
necessary corrective action to have a material adverse effect on its business.
However, the Company will continue to evaluate the impact of these and other
possible effects of the conversion to the Euro on its business. There can be no
guarantee that the costs associated with conversion to the Euro will not have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results, and
financial position in the future.

SOFTWARE DEFECTS AND POTENTIAL RELEASE DELAYS

Software products frequently contain errors or defects, especially when first
introduced or when new versions or enhancements are released. Although the
Company has not experienced material adverse effects resulting from any such
defects or errors to date, there can be no assurance that, despite testing by
the Company and by current and potential customers, defects and errors will not
be found in current versions, new versions or enhancements after commencement of
commercial shipments, resulting in loss of revenues, delay in market acceptance,
or unexpected re-programming costs, which could have a material adverse effect
upon the Company's business, operating results, and financial condition.
Additionally, if the release dates of any future Unify eWave product line or
Unify VISION additions or enhancements are delayed or if when released they fail
to achieve market acceptance, the Company's business, operating results,
financial condition and cash flows would be materially adversely affected.
See "Business - Product Development."

PRODUCT LIABILITY

The Company's license agreements with its customers typically contain provisions
designed to limit the Company's exposure to potential product liability claims.
It is possible, however, that the limitation of liability provisions contained
in the Company's license agreements may not be effective as a result of existing
or future federal, state or local laws or ordinances or unfavorable judicial
decisions. The sale and support of current and future Internet products by the
Company may involve the risk of such claims, any of which are likely to be
substantial in light of the use of these products in the development of core
business applications. A successful product liability claim brought against the
Company could have a material adverse effect upon the Company's business,
operating results, and financial condition.

DEPENDENCE UPON KEY PERSONNEL

The Company's success depends largely on the efforts and abilities of certain
key personnel. The loss of the services of one or more of the Company's
executive officers or the inability to attract and retain additional senior
management could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
operating results, and financial condition. On July 31, 2000 the Company
placed its chief executive officer and its chief financial officer on
administrative leave pending the completion of the Audit Committee's
investigation as discussed in Item 7. In November 2000, the chief executive
officer was terminated and the chief financial officer resigned. Loss of
other management and/or key personnel could also have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, operating results, and financial condition.
See "Business - Employees."

The success of the Company also depends in large part upon the ability of the
Company to attract and retain qualified employees, particularly highly skilled
engineering, direct sales and support personnel. The competition for such
employees is intense. Uncertainty regarding the Company's future could harm its
ability to attract and


                                       14
<PAGE>

retain key personnel. On October 23, 2000 the Company completed a reorganization
which resulted in the elimination of 18 positions, primarily in its
international and administrative areas. This reduction in personnel may make it
more difficult to retain and recruit key personnel and there can be no assurance
that the Company will be successful in such effort. Any failure by the Company
to attract and retain engineering, sales and support personnel could materially
adversely affect the Company's business, operating results, and financial
condition. See "Business - Employees."

MANAGEMENT OF GROWTH

The Company's potential expansion may significantly strain the Company's
management, financial, customer support, operational and other resources. If the
Company achieves successful market acceptance of its current and future Internet
products, the Company may undergo a period of rapid growth. To accommodate this
growth, the Company is continuing to implement a variety of new and upgraded
operating and financial systems, procedures and controls, including the
improvement of its internal management systems. There can be no assurance that
such efforts can be accomplished successfully. Any failure to expand these areas
in an efficient manner could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, operating results, and financial condition. Moreover, there can be no
assurance that the Company's systems, procedures and controls will be adequate
to support the Company's future operations. Any rapid growth could require that
the Company secure additional facilities or expand in its current facilities.
Any move to new facilities or expansion of its present facilities could be
disruptive and could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
operating results, and financial condition.

THIRD-PARTY LICENSES

The Company is dependent on third-party suppliers for software which is
embedded in certain of its products. Although the Company believes that the
functionality provided by software which is licensed from third parties is
obtainable from multiple sources or could be developed by the Company, if any
such third-party licenses were terminated or not renewed or if these third
parties fail to develop new products in a timely manner, the Company could be
required to develop an alternative approach to developing its products, which
could require payment of substantial fees to third parties, internal
development costs and delays and might not be successful in providing the
same level of functionality. Such delays, increased costs or reduced
functionality could materially adversely affect the Company's business,
operating results, and financial condition. See "Business - Intellectual
Property."

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS

The Company relies on a combination of copyright, trademark and trade secret
laws, non-disclosure agreements and other intellectual property protection
methods to protect its proprietary technology. Despite the Company's efforts to
protect its proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects
of the Company's products or to obtain and use information that the Company
regards as proprietary. Policing unauthorized use of the Company's products is
difficult, and while the Company is unable to determine the extent to which
piracy of its software products exists, software piracy can be expected to be a
persistent problem. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not
protect the Company's proprietary rights as fully as do the laws of the United
States. There can be no assurance that the Company's means of protecting its
proprietary rights in the United States or abroad will be adequate or that
competition will not independently develop similar technology.

Although there are no pending lawsuits against the Company regarding
infringement of any existing patents or other intellectual property rights or
any notices that the Company is infringing the intellectual property rights of
others, there can be no assurance that such infringement claims will not be
asserted by third parties in the future. If any such claims are asserted, there
can be no assurance that the Company will be able to defend such claim or obtain
licenses on reasonable terms. The Company's involvement in any patent dispute or
other intellectual property dispute or action to protect trade secrets and
know-how may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating
results, and financial condition. Adverse determinations in any litigation may
subject the Company to significant liabilities to third parties, require the
Company to seek licenses from third parties and prevent the Company from
developing and selling its products. Any of these situations could have a


                                       15
<PAGE>

material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results, and
financial condition. See "Business - Intellectual Property."

VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE

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

The NASDAQ halted trading on the Company's stock on July 31, 2000. On October
23, 2000 the Company's stock was delisted from the NASDAQ National Market. The
Company's stock is now traded over the counter on the "pink sheets." Companies
whose shares trade over the counter generally receive less exposure and are
subject to greater price volatility than those trading on NASDAQ.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

The Company previously maintained its headquarters in San Jose, California in a
2,000 square foot facility under a lease, which expires in August 2003. On
September 30, 2000, the Company consolidated its headquarters with its operation
in Sacramento and has subleased the San Jose facility for the remainder of the
lease term. On October 30, 2000 the Company moved its Sacramento operations to a
new location. The lease for the new location is for 38,000 square feet and will
expire at the end of March 2008. In addition, the Company leases international
sales and support offices in the United Kingdom, France and Japan. The Company
closed its sales office in Reston, Virginia, and has subleased that space. The
Company believes that its existing facilities are adequate for its current needs
and that suitable additional or alternative space will be available in the
future on commercially reasonable terms as needed.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Beginning on July 31 and through October 2000, a series of purported class
action complaints were filed in the U.S. District Court, for the Northern
District of California, against Unify and certain of its present and former
directors and officers. The plaintiffs in each of these actions claim to be
suing on behalf of a class of persons who purchased the Company's Common Stock
during periods specified in the complaint.

The class periods generally alleged are May 19, 1999 to July 28, 2000. The
complaints allege that Unify and certain of its former executives caused
materially false and misleading financial statements to be issued for the
fiscal year 1999 and for each of its first three fiscal 2000 quarters. The
complaints allege that, as a result of Unify's alleged misrepresentations and
omissions, the price of Unify's stock was artificially inflated during the
class period, allowing company insiders to sell their stock at artificially
high prices and causing investors to buy the stock at artificially high
prices. The complaints seek an unspecified amount in damages. These actions
have not yet been consolidated.

From August through October 2000, four shareholder derivative actions were filed
three in the Superior Court of the State of California and one in the U.S.
District Court for the Northern District of California. The plaintiffs in these
actions claim to be suing on behalf of the Company. These actions name as
defendants certain of the Company's present and former officers and directors,
and names the Company as a nominal defendant.


                                       16
<PAGE>

Additionally, in October 2000, a shareholder derivative action was filed in
the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, against
certain present and former officers and directors of Unify. The complaints
allege substantially the same conduct, and concern the same time period, as
the shareholder class actions filed in U.S. District Court. The complaints
allege that, as a result of this conduct, certain of the Company present and
former officers and directors breached their fiduciary duties to Unify and
engaged in improper insider trading. The complaint seeks an unspecified
amount in damages and injunctive relief.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

No matter was submitted to a vote of the Company's stockholders during the
fourth quarter of fiscal 2000.

                                     PART II

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED SHAREHOLDER MATTERS

MARKET INFORMATION FOR COMMON STOCK

During fiscal 1999 and 2000, the Company's common stock was listed on the
NASDAQ National Market under the symbol UNFY. On July 31, 2000, NASDAQ placed
a suspension of trading in the Company's stock as a result of its
announcement regarding the investigation of improper accounting and financial
reporting practices. On August 22, 2000, an "E" was appended to Unify's
trading symbol, indicating that the Company is delinquent in its filings with
the Securities Exchange Commission as it pertains to Form 10-K for fiscal
2000 and Form 10-Q for the first quarter of fiscal 2001. On October 23, 2000,
NASDAQ advised the Company that it would discontinue the listing of its
securities on the NASDAQ National Market. As a result, the Company's stock is
currently traded on the over-the-counter market. The following table sets
forth the high and low closing sales prices as reported by NASDAQ for shares
of the Company's common stock for the periods indicated. Such prices
represent prices between dealers, do not include retail mark-ups, mark-downs
or commissions and may not represent actual transactions.

Share prices have been adjusted to reflect the 2-for-1 split of the Company's
common stock, which was effective December 21, 1999.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS

THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION OF THE FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF
THE COMPANY SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS AND NOTES THERETO IN ITEM 8. THIS ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K CONTAINS
CERTAIN FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS THAT INVOLVE RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES. THE
COMPANY'S ACTUAL RESULTS COULD DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE DISCUSSED HEREIN.
FACTORS THAT COULD CAUSE OR CONTRIBUTE TO SUCH DIFFERENCES INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT
LIMITED TO, THOSE DISCUSSED RISK FACTORS AND IN THE COMPANY'S OTHER FILINGS WITH
THE SEC.

OVERVIEW

Founded in 1980, Unify develops, markets and supports Internet software
extending business applications to the Web. The Company provides feature rich
products and services for organizations growing their business on the Web, based
on open, Java technologies. Unify's products provide enterprise, scalable and
affordable software for building and managing online applications. The Company's
flagship product line, Unify eWave, includes a robust Web application server,
enterprise application server and commerce framework built on the J2EE
technology. These products are designed to enable developers to rapidly build
production-ready, scalable Internet and e-commerce applications that are easy to
manage and run with minimal down-time.

In fiscal 2000, the Company shifted its product development and sales and
marketing focus to its Unify eWave family of products. Revenue from these
products alone were less than expected. Accordingly, the growth in Unify
eWave product sales was not sufficient to offset lower levels of revenues
from its other products resulting from reduced sales and marketing efforts.
The Company expects that its ability to achieve significant revenue growth in
the future will be substantially dependent upon the success of the Unify
eWave product family. Revenues from the Company's client/server products are
not expected to show significant growth and may continue to decline. As a
result, factors adversely affecting the revenue from the Unify eWave family
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating
results, and financial condition.

The Company licenses its software through its direct sales force in the United
States, Europe and Japan and through distributors, VARs, and other partners
worldwide. Revenues from partners accounted for approximately 56%, 59% and 56%
of the Company's software license revenues for fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998,
respectively. The Company's ability to achieve significant revenue growth in the
future will depend in part on its success in maintaining existing and
establishing additional relationships with partners worldwide.

The Company recognizes software license revenue when a noncancelable license
agreement has been executed, delivery has occurred, fees are fixed and
determinable, and collection of the resulting receivable is deemed probable by
management. Software licenses include both development and deployment licenses,
with pricing for Unify eWave based on the number of computer processing units
(CPUs) and Unify VISION generally based upon the number of developers or end
users, as applicable. Customer maintenance revenues are recognized ratably over
the maintenance period. Payments for maintenance fees are generally received in
advance and are nonrefundable. Revenues from consulting and training services
are recognized as the services are performed.

The Company continues to support its extensive installed base of client/server
products, which the Company believes represents a significant source of
potential customers for its Internet products. The Company also generates
significant revenues from services, including customer maintenance, consulting
and training.

In June 2000, certain matters came to the attention of the Company's Board of
Directors that indicated that the Company had engaged in improper accounting
practices. The Company's Board of Directors authorized its Audit Committee to
conduct an investigation of the Company's accounting and financial reporting
practices and to recommend remedial action, if any, as a result of the
findings of its investigation. In July 2000, in connection with the ongoing
investigation, the Company placed its chief executive officer and its chief
financial officer on administrative leave, and in November 2000, the Company
terminated its chief executive officer and its chief financial officer
resigned. Based on the results of the audit committee's investigation, the
Company concluded

                                       20
<PAGE>

that revenue, and in some cases expenses, had been improperly accounted for
in certain transactions during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2000,
primarily related to the following:

-    Reciprocal agreement transactions for which there was insufficient support
     for the fair market valuation of inventory, funded development activities,
     or consulting services received by the Company, or equity investments made
     by the Company in connection with the Company delivering products or
     providing services.

-    Improper application of AICPA Statement of Position 97-2, Software Revenue
     Recognition ("SOP 97-2") in which all of the conditions for revenue
     recognition required by SOP 97-2 had not been met.

-    Contingent revenue transactions in which sales of software, services and
     other related items were contingent upon future events, including
     contingencies that were contained in side agreements.

-    Service revenue which was recognized during the first month of the
     contract, rather than ratably over the term of the contract in accordance
     with SOP 97-2.

-    Other adjustments, including insufficiently supported journal entries and
     improper recording of marketing co-operative agreements.

Based on the results of the Audit Committe's investigation, the Company
concluded that revenue, and in some cases expenses, had been improperly
accounted for in certain transactions during the fiscal year ended April 30,
2000, and adjustments were made for such transactions, including restatements
of previously reported quarterly financial statements. (See Note 16 to the
consolidated financial statements for a discussion of restatements of
unaudited quarterly financial information.) The investigation also identified
commissions, bonuses and other payments made to the Company's former chief
executive officer during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2000, which the
Company believes were not appropriate. Such payments in the amount of
approximately $500,000 have been charged to expense in that fiscal year;
however, the Company is seeking to have the amounts repaid by the former
chief executive officer. The investigation also included a review of
transactions in earlier fiscal years. After evaluating information from the
results of the investigation, the Company concluded that its financial
statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1999 and earlier years were
not materially misstated. Also, the Company concluded that the effect on the
financial statements for fiscal year 2000 of adjustments relating to
transactions of earlier years not being made in those years, which reduced
net loss for fiscal year 2000 by $681,000, was not material.

TOTAL REVENUES

The Company's total revenues include software license revenues from sales of
its Internet and client/server products and service revenues for customer
maintenance, consulting and training. Total revenues for fiscal year 2000
decreased 34% to $20.4 million from $30.8 million for fiscal year 1999. In
1999, total revenues had increased by 24% from $24.8 million in 1998.

The decrease in total revenues was primarily driven by software license
revenues, which decreased by 39%, or $8.0 million in fiscal year 2000 from
$20.3 in 1999. This was a reversal of the prior years' trend which reflected
increases of 30% and 4% in 1999 and 1998. The decrease was primarily related
to the Company's shift in focus from its client/server product line to the
Unify eWave product line where revenues did not meet the Company's
expectations. As the Company emphasized the sale and marketing of the Unify
eWave product line only, the Unify VISION and client/server software license
revenues also declined, further accelerating the Company's total revenue
decrease. In fiscal year 1999, software license revenues increased 30% to
$20.3 million from $15.6 million for fiscal year 1998. License revenues in
fiscal year 1999 increased primarily as a result of a larger number of VAR's
marketing its products.

Total service revenues for fiscal year 2000 decreased 23% to $8.1 million
from $10.5 million for fiscal year 1999. Consulting for the fiscal year 2000
revenues decreased to $1.3 million from $2.4 million for the fiscal year
1999. Maintenance revenues for the fiscal year 2000 decreased from $7.5
million to $6.7 million for the fiscal year 1999. The decrease in consulting
revenues was primarily the result of an increased emphasis on product sales
and the deferral of revenue on a large consulting project due to concern

                                       22
<PAGE>

over the customer's ability to pay. Maintenance revenues decreased primarily
as a result of the reduction in license revenues. Total service revenues
increased to $2.4 million in fiscal year 1999 from $1.8 million in fiscal
year 1998 primarily as the result of an increase in maintenance revenues
resulting from increased license revenues.

International revenues include all software license and service revenues from
customers located outside the United States. International revenues from the
Company's direct sales organizations in Europe and Japan and from value added
resellers, distributors, and other partners in all international locations
accounted for 56%, 51% and 56% of total revenues in fiscal years 2000, 1999
and 1998, respectively.

COST OF REVENUES

COST OF SOFTWARE LICENSES. Cost of software licenses consists primarily of
product documentation, packaging and production costs in the U.S. and Japan
and royalties paid for licensed technology. Cost of software licenses was
$1.3 million for fiscal year 2000, $0.8 million for 1999 and $0.6 million in
1998. Costs associated with royalties and other direct production cost are
incurred at the time of the sale, while the software license revenue may be
recognized in different periods, depending on the terms of the contract.
Accordingly, these costs may fail to directly correlate to the changes in
related revenues from period to period, as occurred in fiscal 2000, when
sales revenues decreased while the related expenses increased.

COST OF SERVICES. Cost of services consists primarily of employee, facilities
and travel costs incurred in providing customer support under software
maintenance contracts and consulting and training services. Total cost of
services in absolute dollars has remained stable at approximately $4.1
million for fiscal year 2000, and $4.4 for 1999 and 1998, with customer
maintenance costs decreasing slightly and consulting and training costs
increasing slightly during those periods. The cost of services has a high
component of fixed costs, and therefore does not fluctuate as readily with
the changes in revenues as can be seen when comparing prior year expenses and
associated revenues.

Due to the decrease in service revenues in fiscal year 2000, total cost of
services as a percentage of service revenues increased to 50% in fiscal year
2000, from 42% of service revenues in fiscal year 1999. The Company plans to
expand its expertise in e-commerce and Internet application development
solutions in fiscal year 2001 in order to capitalize on these opportunities
and as a result it expects that its consulting service costs may increase.
Because there is generally a delay in time when additional consulting
personnel are hired and when they become fully productive, the Company's
results of operations may be adversely affected by the expansion of the
Company's consulting services.

OPERATING EXPENSES

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT. Product development expenses consist primarily of
employee and facilities costs incurred in the development and testing of new
products and in the porting of new and existing products to additional
hardware platforms and operating systems. Product development costs have
steadily increased over the last several years, from $5.7 million in fiscal
year 1998, $5.9 million in 1999 and $6.7 million in 2000. The increases in
1999 and 2000 are primarily the result of the design and development of the
Unify eWave family of products. The Company believes that substantial
investment in product development is critical to maintaining technological
leadership and therefore expects to continue to devote significant resources
to product development in fiscal year 2001.

Software development costs have been accounted for in accordance with Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, ACCOUNTING FOR THE COSTS OF COMPUTER
SOFTWARE TO BE SOLD, LEASED OR OTHERWISE MARKETED. See Note 1 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements. In accordance with this policy, there were no
capitalizable software development costs in fiscal years 2000, 1999 or 1998.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. Selling, general and administrative
("SG&A") expenses consist primarily of salaries, bonuses and commissions,
promotional and travel expenses, professional services, facilities expenses
and bad debt expense. SG&A expenses were $15.9 million for 2000, $15.1
million for 1999 and $16.4 for 1998. SG&A expenses for fiscal year 2000 were
higher compared to the prior year primarily due to increased bad debt

                                       23
<PAGE>

expenses which increased from $0.7 million in fiscal year 1999 to $1.8
million in fiscal year 2000. The remaining components of SG&A expense
remained flat at $14.1 million for fiscal year years ended April 30, 2000,
and $14.5 million for fiscal year ended April 30, 1999. Also as a result of
the investigation into the revenue recognition issues, and the pending
litigation expenses related to those issues, professional fees (legal and
accounting) will increase substantially in fiscal year 2001. The Company is
unable to make an estimation of expenses associated with the resolution of
these matters. SG&A expenses for fiscal year 1999 were lower in absolute
dollars compared to the prior year primarily due to the continuation of a
cost control program adopted in the second quarter of fiscal year 1998. SG&A
expenses decreased as a percentage of total revenues as a result of lower
expenses in absolute dollars and higher total revenues in fiscal year 1999 as
compared to fiscal year 1998.

OTHER INCOME, NET. Other income, net consists primarily of foreign exchange
gains and losses, interest earned by the Company on its cash, cash
equivalents and short-term investments net of interest expense on long-term
debt. Other income was $0.7 million in fiscal year 2000, $0.2 million in
1999, and $0.1 million in 1998. The increase in other income in fiscal year
2000 was due to increased interest income of $0.1 million as a result of an
increase in the average amount of investments for fiscal year 2000, and an
adjustment of $0.3. The increase in other income between fiscal year 1999 and
1998 was principally due to losses on liquidation of the Company's Benelux
and German subsidiaries totaling $0.3 million in fiscal year 1998 offset by
$0.1 million in lower interest income relating to the Company's lower cash
balances in the first part of fiscal year 1999. The Company's subsidiaries in
the United Kingdom, France and Japan operate in local currencies. Foreign
currency gains and losses on local currency intercompany accounts held in the
U.S. have been immaterial to date; however, if the value of the U.S. dollar
increases relative to foreign currencies, the Company's business, operating
results, and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES. The Company recorded no significant federal
income tax provisions for fiscal years 2000, 1999 and 1998 due to the
availability of federal net operating loss carryforwards in 1999 and to net
losses in fiscal years 2000 and 1998. The Company recorded tax provisions in
those years which related primarily to foreign income tax withholding on
software license royalties paid to the Company by certain foreign licensees.
At April 30, 2000, the Company had available federal net operating loss
carryforwards of approximately $24.1 million.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At April 30, 2000, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and short-term
investments of $11.2 million, compared to $11.4 million at April 30, 1999.
Working capital decreased to $5.8 million at April 30, 2000 from $11.9
million at April 30, 1999.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern
basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of
liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of
$7,099,000 during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2000, and has an
accumulated deficit of $47,127,000 as of April 30, 2000. Additionally, the
Company has experienced a decline in revenues and, as a result of the Audit
Committee's investigation as discussed in Item 7 and shareholder litigation
as discussed in Item 3, has incurred and may continue to incur a significant
increase in expenses. The Company believes that it will need additional
financing to meet cash requirements for its operation, and the availability
of such financing on terms acceptable to the Company is uncertain. These
factors indicate that the Company may be unable to continue as a going
concern.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability and classification of recorded assets amounts or the amounts and
classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be
unable to continue as a going concern. The Company's continuation as a going
concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet
its obligations on a timely basis, to obtain additional financing or refinancing
as may be required, and ultimately to attain successful operations. Management
has realigned the Company's operations including a reduction of its workforce.
Management plans to further reduce operating costs, seek financing acceptable to
the Company, and increase marketing and sales efforts. There is no assurance
that management's plans will be successful or if successful, that they will
result in


                                       24
<PAGE>

the Company continuing as a going concern. The Company's ability to obtain
additional financing on acceptable terms will be adversely affected by the
fact that NASDAQ has suspended trading in the Company's Common Stock and
subsequently delisted the Company's Common Stock from the NASDAQ National
Market. If adequate funds are not available to satisfy the Company's
short-term or long-term capital requirements, the Company will be required to
significantly reduce its operations. Additionally, the sale of
additional equity or other securities will result in dilution of the
Company's stockholders.

OPERATING CASH FLOWS. The Company generated negative cash flows from
operations totaling $0.6 million for fiscal year 2000 as compared to
generating $0.8 million of positive cash flow in fiscal year 1999. In fiscal
year 1998, the Company had a negative operating cash flow of $3.7 million.
The negative operating cash flows for fiscal year 2000 resulted from a net
loss of $7.1 million, offset primarily by depreciation of $0.9 million and
increases in deferred revenue of $2.1 million and other liabilities of $0.5
million and a decrease to accounts receivable of $3.8 million. Net cash
provided by operation in fiscal year 1999 consisted primarily of net income
of $4.4 million, plus depreciation of $1.1 million, offset by the changes in
accounts receivable of $3.6 million, and deferred revenue of $0.4 million.
Cash provided by operations in fiscal year 1998 consisted primarily of net
loss of $2.4 million and the change in accounts receivable and accrued
liabilities and accounts payable of $1.1 million $0.9 million and $0.5
million, offset by depreciation of $1.2 million.

INVESTING CASH FLOWS. Net cash and cash equivalents provided by investing
activities totaled $1.4 million for fiscal year 2000, compared to cash used
of $1.4 million in fiscal year 1999 and cash provided of $1.2 million in
fiscal year 1998. Net cash provided by investing activities of $1.4 million in
fiscal year 2000 consisted primarily of $6.0 million in sales from available
for sale securities and a decrease in other assets of $0.2 million, offset
by $3.7 million in securities purchases and $0.6 million in property and
equipment purchases and $0.6 million in other investments. Net cash used of
$1.4 million in fiscal year 1999 consisted primarily of the net increase of
securities of $0.6 million and the purchase of property and equipment of $0.6
million. Cash provided of $1.2 million in fiscal year 1998 consisted
primarily of the net increase in securities of $1.6 million partially offset
by the sale of other assets.

FINANCING CASH FLOWS. Financing activities provided cash of $1.5 million in
fiscal year 2000, and $0.7 million in fiscal year 1999, and used cash of $1.9
million in fiscal year 1998. Cash provided by financing activities in fiscal
year 2000 of $1.3 million was provided from stock options exercises and
purchases under the employee stock purchase plan. Cash provided by financing
activities for fiscal year 1999 consisted primarily of the proceeds from the
sales of common stock under the Company's stock option and stock purchase
plans. In fiscal year 1998, cash used in financing was principally for the
retirement of a $2.4 million stockholder line of credit offset by proceeds
from the sales of common stock totaling $0.5 million.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE
INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES. This statement establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities and is
effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.
The statement requires balance sheet recognition of derivatives as assets or
liabilities measured at fair value. Accounting for gains and losses resulting
from changes in the values of derivatives is dependent on the use of the
derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. The Company believes
that the adoption of SFAS No. 133 will not have a material impact on its
financial position or results of operations.

In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements ("SAB
101"). SAB 101 provides guidance on the recognition, presentation, and
disclosure of revenue in financial statements filed with the SEC. The accounting
and disclosure prescribed by SAB 101 will be effective for fiscal year beginning
May 1, 2001. The Company believes that it complies with the provisions of SAB
101.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK


                                       25
<PAGE>

INTEREST RATE RISK. The Company's exposure to market rate risk for changes in
interest rates relates primarily to its investment portfolio, which consists
of cash equivalents and short-term investments. Cash equivalents are highly
liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and are
stated at cost. Cash equivalents are generally maintained in money market
accounts which have as their objective preservation of principal and which
hold investments with maturity dates of less than 90 days. The Company does
not believe its exposure to interest rate risk is material for cash and
short-term investments, which totaled $11.2 million at April 30, 2000. The
securities in the Company's investment portfolio are generally classified as
available for sale and, consequently, are recorded on the consolidated
balance sheet at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported as a
separate component of stockholders' equity.

Short-term investments totaled $3.7 million at April 30, 2000. Unify does not
use derivative financial instruments in its short-term investment portfolio,
places its investments with high quality issuers and, by policy, limits the
amount of credit exposure to any one issuer. The Company is averse to
principal loss and attempts to ensure the safety of its invested funds by
limiting default, market and reinvestment risk. Unify's investments at April
30, 2000 consisted of $1.0 million in government bonds and $2.6 million in
corporate bonds maturing within one year, and $0.1 million in corperate bonds
maturing within two years, both are exposed to changes in market interest
rates as an indicator of changes in the level of interest rates for those
maturities. If market interest rates were to change immediately and uniformly
by ten percent from levels at April 30, 2000, the fair value of the Company's
cash equivalents and short-term investments would change by an insignificant
amount.

FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE RATE RISK. As a global concern, the Company faces
exposure to adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates. These
exposures may change over time as business practices evolve and could have a
material adverse impact on the Company's business, operating results and
financial position. Historically, the Company's primary exposures have related
to local currency denominated sales and expenses in Europe, Japan and Australia.
For example, when the U.S. dollar strengthens against the major European
currencies, it results in lower revenues and expenses recorded for those regions
when translated into U.S. dollars.

Due to the substantial volatility of currency exchange rates, among other
factors, the Company cannot predict the effect of exchange rate fluctuations
on its future operating results. Although Unify takes into account changes in
exchange rates over time in its pricing strategy, it does so only on an
annual basis, resulting in substantial pricing exposure as a result of
foreign exchange volatility during the period between annual pricing reviews.
The Company also has currency exchange rate exposures on intercompany
accounts receivable owed to the Company as a result of local currency sales
of software licenses by the Company's international subsidiaries in the
United Kingdom, France and Japan. At April 30, 2000, the Company had $0.6
million, $0.2 million and $0.8 million in such receivables denominated in
British pounds, French francs and Japanese yen, respectively. The Company
encourages prompt payment of these intercompany balances in order to minimize
its exposure to currency fluctuations, but it engages in no hedging
activities to reduce the risk of such fluctuations. A hypothetical ten
percent change in foreign currency rates would have an insignificant impact
on the Company's business, operating results and financial position. The
Company has not experienced material exchange losses on intercompany balances
in the past; however, due to the substantial volatility of currency exchange
rates, among other factors, it cannot predict the effect of exchange rate
fluctuations on its future business, operating results and financial position.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS AND TERMINATION AND CHANGE OF CONTROL ARRANGEMENTS

The Company had an employment agreement with Mr. Mikailli, the Company's
former President and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Mikailli's employment with
the Company terminated in November 2000. Under the agreement, as amended, Mr.
Mikailli received an annual salary of $275,000 and was eligible to receive
certain bonus payments upon the Company's achieving certain levels of its
business plan. The agreement also provided for forgiveness of Mr. Mikailli's
promissory note in favor of the Company (see "Certain Relationships and
Related Transactions--Amounts Due from Officers, Directors and Principal
Stockholders"). If Mr. Mikailli was terminated within twelve months following
a merger of the Company or a sale by the Company of all or substantially all
of its assets, the unvested portion of all options held by him as of the date
of such termination would have automatically vested. The employment agreement
further provided that if Mr. Mikailli was terminated under any other
circumstances, such options would have the benefit of one additional year of
vesting and Mr. Mikailli would have received an amount equal to six months'
salary and bonus, based upon the actual bonus earned for the prior year. Mr.
Mikailli would have also received his annual base salary, benefits and bonus
for an additional six months from the date of the earlier of termination or
until he commenced new employment. The Company terminated Mr. Mikailli's
employment in November 2000, but has not paid him any of the foregoing
severance benefits and does not believe he is entitled to them. Mr. Mikailli
has not requested payment of these benefits as of this date.

The Company's 1991 Stock Option Plan contains provisions pursuant to which the
unvested portions of all outstanding options become fully vested and
immediately exercisable upon a merger of the Company in which the Company's
stockholders do not retain, directly or indirectly, at least a majority of
the beneficial interest in the voting stock of the Company or its successor,
if the successor corporation fails to assume the outstanding options or
substitute options for the successor corporation's stock to replace the
outstanding options. The outstanding options will terminate to the extent
they are not exercised as of consummation of the merger or assumed or
substituted for by the successor corporation.


ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

(1)    Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the
       Securities and Exchange Commission. In computing the number of shares
       beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that
       person, shares of Common Stock subject to options or warrants held by
       that person that are currently exercisable, or will become exercisable
       within 60 days of July 31, 2000, are deemed outstanding. Such shares,
       however, are not deemed outstanding for purposes of computing the
       percentage ownership of any other person. Except as indicated in the
       footnotes to this table, the persons named in the table have sole voting
       and investment power with respect to all shares of Common Stock shown as
       beneficially owned by them, subject to community property laws where
       applicable. Unless otherwise indicated, the individuals in the table may
       be contacted in care of Unify Corporation, 2101 Arena Blvd, Suite 100,
       Sacramento, California 95834.

       the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 1, 2000.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires the
Company's executive officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more
than 10% of the Company's Common Stock to file initial reports of ownership 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) reports filed by them.

Based solely on the Company's review of such reports 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 for the fiscal year ended April 30,
2000 were complied with, except that executive officer Reza Mikailli, filed four
late reports on Form 5 for disposition of Common Stock.

ITEM 13.      CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

AMOUNTS DUE FROM OFFICERS, DIRECTORS AND PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS. In January
1996, the Company accepted a full-recourse promissory note in the principal
amount of $195,000 from Mr. Mikailli in payment of the exercise price for
options, which were granted in fiscal 1994, 1995 and 1996. The note bore
interest at 5% per annum and was secured by the related 769,462 shares of Common
Stock. Under the terms of an employment agreement with


                                       31
<PAGE>

Mr. Mikailli which was effective May 1, 1998, this promissory note was paid down
at the rate of $25,000 per quarter and the due date for the note and accrued
interest thereon were extended quarterly, both contingent upon his continued
employment with the Company. As of April 30, 2000 this note has been paid in
full.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION MATTERS. The Company's Restated
Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate") limits the liability of
directors to the maximum extent permitted by Delaware law. Delaware law provides
that a corporation's certificate of incorporation may contain a provision
eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director for monetary
damages for breach of their fiduciary duties as directors, except for liability
for (i) any breach of their duty of loyalty to the corporation or its
stockholders, (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) unlawful payments of
dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section
174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or (iv) any transactions from which
the director derived an improper personal benefit.

The Company's Bylaws provide that the Company shall indemnify its directors,
executive officers, and trustees to the fullest extent permitted by law. The
Company believes that indemnification under its Bylaws covers at least
negligence and gross negligence on the part of indemnified parties. The
Company's Bylaws also permit the Company to secure insurance on behalf of any
executive officer, director, employee or other agent for any liability arising
out of his or her actions in such capacity, regardless of whether the Bylaws
would permit indemnification.

The Company has entered into agreements to indemnify its directors and executive
officers, in addition to the indemnification provided for in the Company's
Bylaws. These agreements, among other things, indemnify the Company's directors
and executive officers for certain expenses (including attorneys' fees),
judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by any such person in any
action or proceeding, including any action by or in the right of the Company or
any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at the
request of the Company. The Company believes that these provisions and
agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors
and executive officers.

                           INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT



To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of Unify Corporation:


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Unify
Corporation and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of April 30, 2000 and 1999, and
the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended April 30, 2000. Our audit
also comprehended the Company's financial statement schedule listed in item
14(a)2. These consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule
are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and financial
statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated
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, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Unify Corporation and subsidiaries
as of April 30, 2000 and 1999, and the results of their operations and their
cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended April 30, 2000 in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedule, when
considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole,
presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared
assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in
Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company's net loss
during the year ended April 30, 2000, its accumulated deficit as of April 30,
2000, the decline in the Company's revenues, the significant increase in
expenses as a result of the Audit Committee's investigation and shareholder
litigation, and the uncertainty of the availability of financing needed to
fund the Company's operating cash requirements, raise substantial doubt about
its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans concerning
these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

INVESTIGATION

In June 2000, certain matters came to the attention of the Company's Board of
Directors that indicated that the Company had engaged in improper accounting
practices. The Company's Board of Directors authorized its Audit Committee to
conduct an investigation of the Company's accounting and financial reporting
practices and to recommend remedial action, if any, as a result of the
findings of their investigation. In July 2000, in connection with the ongoing
investigation, the Company placed its chief executive officer and its chief
financial officer on administrative leave, and in November 2000, the Company
terminated its chief executive officer and its chief financial officer
resigned. Based on the results of the Audit Committee's investigation, the
Company concluded that revenue, and in some cases expenses, had been
improperly accounted for in certain transactions during the fiscal year ended
April 30, 2000, and adjustments were made for such transactions including
restatements of previously reported quarterly financial statements. (See Note
16 for a discussion of the restatements of unaudited quarterly financial
information.) The investigation also identified commissions, bonuses and
other payments made to the Company's former chief executive officer during
the fiscal year ended April 30, 2000, which the Company believes were not
appropriate. Such payments in the amount of approximately $500,000 have been
charged to expense in that fiscal year; however, the Company is seeking to
have the amounts repaid by the former chief executive officer. The
investigation also included a review of transactions in earlier fiscal years.
After evaluating information from the results of the investigation, the
Company concluded that its financial statements for the fiscal year ended
April 30, 1999 and earlier years were not materially misstated. Also, the
Company concluded that the effect on the financial statements for fiscal 2000
of adjustments relating to transactions of earlier years not being made in
those years, which reduced net loss for fiscal 2000 by $681,000, was not
material.

THE COMPANY

Unify Corporation develops, markets and supports the Unify eWave and Unify
VISION software products which extend business applications to the web and
enable information technology organizations to deliver e-commerce applications
by integrating enterprise custom-built and packaged applications with the
Internet. The Company also enhances, markets and supports Unify DataServer, a
family of database management system products, and markets and supports
ACCELL/SQL, a family of fourth generation language application development
tools.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and Unify Japan KK, which is 66%
owned by the Company. All significant intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated. At April 30, 2000, Unify Japan KK was in a negative
equity position, and as a result, the Company did not allocate any of Unify
Japan KK net earnings or loss to the minority interest shareholders.

The functional currencies of the Company's foreign subsidiaries are their local
currencies. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are
translated into U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates. Income and expense
accounts are translated at average rates of exchange in effect during the
reporting period. Foreign currency transaction gains or losses are included in
other income, net. Foreign currency adjustments resulting from the translation
process are excluded from net income and accumulated in other comprehensive
income.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with original maturities of
three months or less when purchased and are stated at cost. Cash equivalents
consist primarily of demand deposits with banks, certificates of deposit,
money market funds, and corporate debt securities.

INVESTMENTS

The Company's investments are classified as available-for-sale under the
provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115,
ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN INVESTMENTS IN DEBT AND EQUITY SECURITIES. The
investments are carried at fair value, which approximated cost at April 30, 2000
and 1999. Unrealized gains or losses are reported as accumulated other
comprehensive income. Realized gains and losses and declines in value judged to
be other than temporary on available-for-sale securities are included in other
income, net. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification
method.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes
receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short-term
maturity of these instruments. It is not practicable to determine the fair value
of amounts due to minority interest stockholders because of the nature of the
related party relationships.

CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK AND CREDIT EVALUATIONS

Financial instruments potentially subjecting the Company to concentrations of
credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable and
investments. The Company places its cash, cash equivalents and investments
primarily with three financial institutions. The Company licenses its products
principally to companies in the United States, Europe, and Japan and no single
customer accounted for 10% or more of consolidated revenues in the years ended
April 30, 2000, 1999 and 1998. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations
of its customers and generally does not require collateral. Allowances are
maintained for potential credit losses.

OTHER INVESTMENTS

The Company carries other investments at cost, subject to evaluation for
impairment.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is recorded on a
straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets,
generally three to five years.

CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE

Software development costs are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 86,
ACCOUNTING FOR THE COSTS OF COMPUTER SOFTWARE TO BE SOLD, LEASED OR OTHERWISE
MARKETED. Under this standard, capitalization of software development costs
begins upon the establishment of technological feasibility, which for the
Company is usually upon completion of a working model, and ends when the product
is offered for sale. There are generally no significant capitalizable costs for
the Company's software development projects. In the event that capitalizable


                                       42
<PAGE>

                                UNIFY CORPORATION
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

software development costs do arise, amortization of those costs is computed on
a product-by-product basis as the greater of the ratio of current product
revenues to the total of current and anticipated product revenues or the
straight-line method over the software's estimated economic life, generally one
to three years.

LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company accounts for the impairment of long-lived assets in accordance with
SFAS No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND FOR
LONG-LIVED ASSETS TO BE DISPOSED OF. As required by the statement, the Company
evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets or intangibles
may not be recoverable. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the
impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying
amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.

The Company periodically reevaluates the original assumptions and rationale
utilized in the establishment of the carrying value and estimated useful lives
of the long-lived assets. The criteria used for these evaluations include
management's estimate of the asset's continuing ability to generate income from
operations and positive cash flows in future periods as well as the strategic
significance of any intangible asset in the Company's business objectives.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Software license revenue is recognized when a noncancelable license agreement
has been executed, delivery has occurred, fees are fixed and determinable, and
collection of the resulting receivable is probable. Service revenue includes
support revenue, which is recognized ratably over the support period (generally
a one year term), and revenue from consulting and training services, which is
recognized as services are performed. Fees for support are billed in advance and
included in deferred revenue until recognized. The Company's revenue recognition
policies are in compliance with the provisions of the American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants' Statement of Position No. 97-2, SOFTWARE REVENUE
RECOGNITION.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company accounts for stock-based awards using the intrinsic value method of
accounting in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No.
25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and related interpretations. As
such, compensation is recorded on the measurement date, generally the date of
issuance or grant, as the excess of the current estimated fair value of the
underlying stock over the purchase or exercise price. Any deferred compensation
is amortized over the respective vesting periods of the equity instruments, if
any.

INCOME TAXES

Deferred taxes are recorded for the difference between the financial
statement and tax basis of the Company's assets and liabilities and net
operating loss carryforwards. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce
deferred tax assets to an amount whose realization is more likely than not.
U.S. income taxes are not provided on the undistributed earnings of foreign
subsidiaries as they are considered to be permanently invested.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

SFAS No. 128, EARNINGS PER SHARE, requires a dual presentation of basic and
diluted income (loss) per share ("EPS"). Basic EPS excludes dilution and is
computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the
weighted average of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS
reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other
contracts to issue common stock (e.g. convertible preferred stock, warrants, and
common stock options) were exercised or converted into common stock. Potential
common shares in the diluted EPS computation are excluded for fiscal years 2000
and 1998 as their effect would be antidilutive.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

In fiscal 1999, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130, REPORTING COMPREHENSIVE
INCOME, which requires that an enterprise report and display, by major
components and as a single total, the change in its net assets during the
period from nonowner sources. The adoption of this statement resulted in a
change in financial statement presentation but had no impact on the Company's
consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

SEGMENT REPORTING

On May 1, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 131, DISCLOSURES ABOUT SEGMENTS OF
AN ENTERPRISE AND RELATED INFORMATION. This statement establishes standards for
the reporting of information about operating segments, including related
disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers,
and requires selected information about operating segments in interim financial
statements. The adoption of this statement did not impact the Company's
consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. The
required segment data is presented in Note 15.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133,
ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES. This statement
establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and
hedging activities and is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2000. The statement requires balance sheet
recognition of derivatives as assets or liabilities measured at fair value.
Accounting for gains and losses resulting from changes in the values of
derivatives is dependent on the use of the derivative and whether it
qualifies for hedge accounting. The Company believes that the adoption of
SFAS No. 133 will not have a material impact on its financial position or
results of operations.

In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 101, REVENUE RECOGNITION IN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ("SAB
101"). SAB 101 provides guidance on the recognition, presentation, and
disclosure of revenue in financial statements filed with the SEC. The accounting
and disclosures prescribed by SAB 101 is effective for the Company's fiscal year
beginning May 1, 2001. The Company believes that it complies with the provisions
of SAB 101.

NOTE 2. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND MANAGEMENT'S PLAN

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern
basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of
liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of
$7,099,000 during the year ended April 30, 2000, and has an accumulated
deficit of $47,127,000 as of April 30, 2000. Additionally, the Company has
experienced a decline in revenues and as a result of the Audit Committee's
investigation and shareholder litigation, has incurred and may continue to
incur a significant increase in expenses. The Company believes that it will
need additional financing to meet cash requirements for its operations, and
the availability of such financing on terms acceptable to the Company is
uncertain. These factors indicate that the Company may be unable to continue
as a going concern.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts
and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company
be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company's continuation as a
going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow
to meet its obligations on a timely basis, to obtain additional financing or
refinancing as may be required, and ultimately to attain successful
operations. Management has realigned the Company's operations including a
reduction of its workforce. Management plans to further reduce operating
costs, seek financing acceptable to the Company, and increase marketing and
sales

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

efforts. There is no assurance that management's plans will be successful or if
successful, that they will result in the Company continuing as a going concern.

NOTE 3. ACQUISITIONS

In April 2000, the Company acquired privately held New Atlanta Communications,
LLC a developer of a leading high-performance, scalable Web application server
and servlet engine that implements the Java Servlet API and JSP standards.

Pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreement, the Company agreed to
purchase all of the outstanding membership interests of New Atlanta in
exchange for 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock with a guaranteed
value of $15,000,000 at the end of a two year period. The Company and New
Atlanta subsequently agreed to rescind the purchase agreement retroactive to
April 1, 2000. Accordingly, the purchase has not been reflected in the
financial statements as of April 30, 2000. The operations of New Atlanta for
the period of April 1, 2000 to April 30, 2000 were immaterial.

Under the terms of the rescission agreement, Unify has transfered its
interests in New Atlanta back to the original owners in exchange for the
Unify stock that was to be issued in the original acquisition. Unify and New
Atlanta entered into a three year OEM agreement in which the Company is able
to embed ServletExec with the Unify eWave Engine, the Company's Java 2
Enterprise Edition Application Server. Unify will continue to market, sell
and support New Atlanta's product until April 30, 2001, at which date
responsibility for selling, marketing and distributing the product will
revert to New Atlanta.

NOTE 4. INVESTMENTS

Investments at April 30, 2000 consisted of $2,569,000 in corporate bonds and
$1,000,000 in government bonds maturing within one year; and $100,242 in

consisted of $2,072,000 in money market funds and $4,000,000 in municipal
bonds maturing after 10 years.

NOTE 5. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

During fiscal years 2000 and 1999, the Company had agreements to factor
accounts receivable on a non-recourse and full recourse basis. Such
agreements terminated in July 2000. During fiscal years 2000 and 1999,
$5,600,000 and $2,200,000 respectively, of accounts receivable were sold
under such agreements. As of April 30, 2000, all receivables factored were
sold on a non-recourse basis. As of April 30, 1999, no receivables were
factored.

STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

Under the 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Purchase Plan"), as Amended
effective August 7, 1997, eligible employees may purchase the Company's common
stock through payroll deductions of up to 15% of their base compensation.
Offering periods under the Purchase Plan are of 24 months' duration with
purchases occurring every six months. Common stock is purchased for the accounts
of participating employees at a price per share equal to the lower of (i) 85% of
the fair market value of a share of common stock at the beginning of the
offering period or (ii) 85% of the fair market value of a share of common stock
on the date of purchase. Common stock issued under the Purchase Plan during
fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998 totaled 111,755, 235,906 and 445,044 shares at
weighted average prices of $1.93, $0.97 and $1.05, respectively. The weighted
average fair values of the fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998 awards were $9.43, $1.28
and $0.46 per share, respectively. At April 30, 2000, 692,192 shares were
reserved for future issuance under the Purchase Plan.

ADDITIONAL STOCK PLAN INFORMATION

As discussed in Note 1, the Company continues to account for its stock-based
awards using the intrinsic value method in accordance with APB No. 25.
Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized in the financial
statements for employee stock arrangements issued at fair value.

SFAS No. 123, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION, requires the
disclosure of pro forma net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share had
the Company adopted the fair value method to account for its stock-based
awards. Under SFAS No. 123, the fair value of stock-based awards to employees
is calculated through the use of option pricing models which were developed
to estimate the fair value of freely tradeable, fully transferable options
without vesting restrictions. Such options differ significantly from the
Company's stock-based awards. These models require subjective assumptions,
including future stock price volatility and expected time to exercise, which
greatly affect the calculated values. The Company's calculations were made
using the minimum value method for the periods prior to June 1996, the date
of the Company's initial public offering of common stock and the
Black-Scholes option pricing model for subsequent periods, with the following
weighted average assumptions: expected option life, 12 months following
vesting; stock volatility, 93% in fiscal 2000, 83% in fiscal 1999 and 67% in
fiscal 1998; risk-free interest rates, 5.9% in fiscal 2000, 5.1% in fiscal
1999 and 5.8% in fiscal 1998; and no dividends during the expected term. The
Company's calculations are based on a multiple option valuation approach and
forfeitures are recognized as they occur. If the computed fair values of the
Company's stock-based awards had been amortized to expense over the vesting
period of the awards, pro forma net loss would have been $8,457,000 or $0.47
per basic share and diluted share in fiscal year 2000 while pro forma
earnings would have been $3,738,000 or $0.22 per basic and $0.21 per diluted
share in fiscal year 1999 and a pro forma net loss of $3,029,000 or $0.18 per
basic and diluted share in fiscal year 1998.

NOTE RECEIVABLE FROM STOCKHOLDER

Note receivable from stockholder at April 30, 1999 consisted of the principal
balance and accrued interest due on a $195,000 full recourse note from one of
the Company's officers. The note has an interest rate of 5% annually. The note
was paid in full during the year ended April 30, 2000.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)


Due primarily to changes in the deferred tax assets recorded for net
operating loss carryforwards and deferred revenue, the valuation allowance
increased by $2,227,000 in the year ended April 30, 2000 and decreased by
$1,913,000 in the year ended April 30, 1999. At April 30, 2000, the Company
had approximately $24,116,000 in federal net operating loss carryforwards,
approximately $5,690,000 in state net operating loss carryforwards,
approximately $4,853,000 in foreign net operating loss carryforwards, and
approximately $1,463,000 in foreign tax credit carryforwards. The Company's
federal net operating loss carryforwards expire beginning in fiscal 2006. The
Company's other net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards have various
expiration dates beginning in fiscal year 2001. The Company's ability to
utilize these net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to certain
limitations in the event of a change in ownership.

NOTE 12. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Unify Japan KK ("Unify Japan") has been the exclusive distributor and master
licensee for the Company's products in Japan since July 1994. Prior to March
1999, the Company, Sumitomo Metals Industries, Ltd. ("SMI") and Artificial
Intelligence Research, Ltd. ("AIR") owned 51%, 34% and 15% interests,
respectively, in Unify Japan. In March 1999, the Company purchased AIR's entire
interest in Unify Japan. At April 30, 2000 the Company and "SMI" own 66% and 34%
of Unify Japan respectively.

TRANSACTIONS WITH SMI

Total revenues include revenues from SMI of $361,000, $601,000 and $772,000
in fiscal years 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Unify Japan leases office
space from SMI; rent expense for this office space totaled approximately
$63,000, $74,000 and $112,000 in fiscal years 2000, 1999 and 1998,
respectively. Unify Japan also paid SMI approximately $26,000, $61,000 and
$169,000 for the services of SMI employees in fiscal years 2000, 1999 and
1998, respectively. In September 1995, Unify Japan entered into a 100 million
yen loan agreement with a bank affiliated with SMI. The loan bears interest
at the Tokyo International Bank Offered Rate ("TIBOR") plus 50 basis points
(approximately 1% at April 30, 2000), and is secured by the assets of Unify
Japan. The agreement due date has been extended to September 2001. At April
30, 2000, 50 million yen, or $471,000, was outstanding under this loan
agreement. Amounts due to minority interest stockholders at April 30, 2000
and 1999 consisted entirely of the balances due under this loan agreement.

TRANSACTIONS WITH DIRECTORS

Included in prepaid expenses and other current assets at April 30, 2000, is a
note receivable from the Company's former chief executive officer in the
amount of $43,560 for the purchase of the Company's common stock, upon the
exercise of stock options. This note was paid in full in May 2000.

As discussed in Note 1, the investigation conducted by the Audit Committee,
identified commissions, bonuses and other payments made to the Company's
former chief executive officer which the Company believes were not
appropriate. Although these payments have been charged to expense, the
Company is seeking to have these amounts repaid.

NOTE 13. EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT PLAN

The Company maintains a 401(k) profit sharing plan (the "401(k) Plan").
Eligible employees may contribute up to 15% of their pre-tax annual
compensation to the 401(k) Plan, subject to certain statutory limitations.
The Company voluntarily matches 75% of participating employees' contributions
up to 6% of each employee's annual compensation. In fiscal years 2000, 1999
and 1998, the Company contributed $254,000, $187,000 and $99,000,
respectively, to the 401(k) Plan.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)


Rent expense under operating leases was $1,400,000, $1,398,000, and $1,561,000
for the years ended April 30, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS AND TERMINATION AND CHANGES OF CONTROL ARRANGEMENTS

The Company had an employment agreement with its former chief executive
officer that contained termination and change in control arrangements. In
November 2000, the Company terminated the employment of its chief executive
officer. The Company does not believe that he is entitled to any termination
benefits under the employment agreement.

LITIGATION

Beginning on July 31 and through October 2000, a series of purported class
action complaints were filed in the U.S. District Court, Northern District of
California, against the Company and certain of its directors and officers.
The plaintiffs in each of these actions claim to be suing on behalf of a
class of persons who purchased the Company's common stock during periods
specified in the complaint.

The class periods generally alleged are May 19, 1999 to July 28, 2000. The
complaints allege that Unify and certain of its executives caused materially
false and misleading financial statements to be issued for the fiscal year
1999 and for each of its fiscal year 2000 quarters. These actions have not
yet been consolidated. The complaints allege that, as a result of Unify's
alleged misrepresentations and omissions, the price of Unify's stock was
artificially inflated during the class period, allowing company insiders to
sell their stock at artificially high prices and inducing investors to buy
the stock at artificially high prices. The complaints seek an unspecified
amount in damages.

From August through October, 2000, four shareholder derivative actions were
filed, three in in the Superior Court of the State of California and one in the
US District Court for the Northern District of California. The plaintiffs in
these actions claim to be suing on behalf of the Company. These actions name as
defendants certain of the Company's present and former officers and directors.
The complaints allege substantially the same conduct, and concern the same time
period, as the shareholder class action filed in U.S. District Court. The
complaints assert that, as a result of this conduct, certain of the Company's
officers, directors and former officers and directors breached their fiduciary
duties to Unify and engaged in improper insider trading. The complaint seeks an
unspecified amount in damages and injunctive relief on the Company's behalf. The
Company and the individual defendants intend to defend all of these actions
vigorously. The ultimate outcome of these matters cannot presently be
determined. There can be no assurance that any of the complaints discussed above
will be resolved without costly litigation, or in a manner that does not have a
material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of
operations or cash flows. No estimate can be made of the possible loss or
possible range of loss associated with the resolution of these contingencies.

NOTE 15. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company has three reportable operating segments, the United States, Europe,
and Japan, which are organized, managed and analyzed geographically and operate
in one industry segment: the development and marketing of Internet application
server software and related services. The Company evaluates operating segment
performance primarily based on net revenues and certain operating expenses. The
Company's products and services are marketed internationally through the
Company's subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, France and Japan, and through
distributors, value added resellers and OEMs. No single customer accounted for
10% or more of the consolidated revenues of the Company in fiscal 2000, 1999 or
1998.

(1)  The Company allocates revenues to operating segments based on the location
     of the country where the license is installed or service is delivered.
     There were no transfers between segments during the periods presented. The
     accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in
     Note 1.
(2)  Americas operating income (loss) is net of corporate product
     development and administrative expenses.
(3)  Interest income and interest expense were primarily attributable to the
     United States in the periods presented. Interest income and interest
     expense in Europe and Japan were not significant in those periods.
(4)  Corporate assets consist primarily of United States cash and cash
     equivalents, investments, purchased technology, and property and equipment.
(5)  The majority of the Company's capital expenditures are incurred for
     software (which occurs exclusively in the United States) and for corporate
     infrastructure. Consequently, capital expenditures and depreciation expense
     were primarily attributable to the United States in the periods presented.

NOTE 16. RESTATEMENT OF QUARTERLY FINANCIAL DATA (UNAUDITED)

As discuss in Note 1, based on the results of the Audit Committee's
investigation, the Company concluded that revenue and in some cases
expenses, had been improperly accounted for in certain transactions during
the fiscal year ended April 30,2000 primarily related to the following:

-    Reciprocal agreement transactions for which there was insufficient
     support for the fair market valuation of inventory, funded development
     activities, or consulting services received by the Company, or equity
     investments made by the Company in connection with the Company
     delivering products or providing services.

-    Improper application of AICPA Statement of Position 97-2, Software
     Revenue Recognition ("SOP 97-2") in which all of the conditions for
     revenue recognition required by SOP 97-2 had not been met.

-    Contingent revenue transactions in which sales of software, services and
     other related items were contingent upon future events, including
     contingencies that were contained in side agreements.

-    Service revenue which was recognized during the first month of the
     contract, rather than ratably over the term of the contract in
     accordance with SOP 97-2.

-    Other adjustments, including insufficiently supported journal entries
     and improper recording of marketing co-operative agreements.

As a result, the Company restated its condensed consolidated financial
statements for the quarters ended July 31, 1999, October 31, 1999 and January
31, 2000 from amounts previously reported to appropriately account for the
transactions referred to above. The following is a summary of the significant
effects of the restatement of selected quarterly financial information for
fiscal year 2000:

Note 17. Subsequent Events

In July 2000, the Company announced that it had acquired privately-held Unify
InterAmerica, the Company's master distributor in Latin America. The acquisition
was in support of Unify's strategy to rapidly expand into the growing Latin
America e-commerce market. The Company has since re-evaluated the strategic
value of the Latin American market, and as a result, the original stockholders
have agreed to repurchase Unify InterAmerica, which will result in the Company
recording a loss of approximately $300,000.

In October 2000, the National Association of Securities Dealers delisted the
trading of the Company's common stock on the NASDAQ National Market.

In August 2000, the Company amended its lease agreement for its executive
office and production facility. Under the terms of the amended agreement, the
Company has provided a full security interest in the Company's investment in
Evergreen Internet, Inc. (Note 7). This security interest may be cancelled
upon the issuance by the Company of a standby letter of credit in the amount
of $500,000.
