GRIC COMMUNICATIONS, INC.        Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements  (unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

Except for the December 31, 2000 consolidated balance sheet, which was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the GRIC
Communications, Inc. (the "Company") Annual Report on Form 10-K, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and restructuring accruals) considered necessary for a fair representation have been included. The results for the six months ended June 30,
2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for future periods. The following information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Net Loss Per Share

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings per Share," basic and diluted net loss per share has been
computed using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive securities have been excluded from the computation of basic and diluted net
loss per share, as their effect is antidilutive.

Weighted-average
options outstanding to purchase approximately 948,000 and 1.4 million shares of common stock for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000,
respectively, and 543,000 and 1.9 million shares of common stock for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted net loss
per share because the effect would be antidilutive. Such securities, had they been dilutive, would have been included in the computation of diluted net loss per share using the treasury stock method.

3. Comprehensive Loss

The components of comprehensive loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively, are as follows:

|                                 |                                                         | Three months ended |        | Six months ended |

|Other comprehensive gain (loss): |                                                         |                    |        |                  |  
|                                 | Unrealized gain (loss) on available-for-sale securities |                    |        | (23              | )
|                                 |                                                         |                    |        |                  |  
|Comprehensive loss               |                                                         | $                  | (5,985 | )                | $
|                                 |                                                         |                    |        |                  |  

The
only component of accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss) at June 30, 2001 and 2000 was unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities.

Southern District of New York. This lawsuit is captioned Colbert Birnet LP v. GRIC Communications, Inc. et al., No. 01 CIV. 6771. On August 1, 2001, a substantially identical
lawsuit was filed in the same court, naming the Company and four of its officers, under the caption Northern Capital Holdings Inc. v. GRIC Communications, Inc. et al., No. 01 CIV.
7124. To date, substantially identical lawsuits have been filed against more than 100

other technology companies who sold shares of their companies' respective common stock in initial public offerings during 1999 and 2000. The present complaints allege claims against the Company,
certain of its officers (each suit names a different set of four officers), and/or CIBC World Markets Corp., Prudential Securities Incorporated and U.S. Bancorp Piper Jaffray Inc., underwriters
of the Company's December 14, 1999 initial public offering, under Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The complaints also allege claims solely against CIBC World
Markets Corp., Prudential Securities Incorporated and U.S. Bancorp Piper Jaffray Inc. under Section 12(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and against all the named defendants under
Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The complaints appear to allege that CIBC World Markets Corp., Prudential Securities Incorporated and U.S. Bancorp Piper
Jaffray Inc. entered into improper commissions agreements regarding aftermarket trading in the Company's common stock purportedly issued pursuant to the registration statement for the initial
public offering. The lawsuit brought by Northern Capital Holdings Inc. also names Deutsche Bank Securities, Inc. as a defendant and alleges claims against them substantially similar to
the claims alleged against CIBC World Markets Corp., Prudential Securities Incorporated and U.S. Bancorp Piper Jaffray Inc. The Company's management believes that the lawsuits are without legal
merit and intends to defend them vigorously.

6. Restructuring Event

In January 2001, the Company undertook a strategic restructuring and decided to cease providing its Internet telephony settlement services, based on an
analysis of the operating expenses required to support these services and the low gross margins associated with them, and on the Company's
expectation that continued Internet telephony operations would require additional cash infusions to the business. The Company anticipates that its strategic restructuring will be completed within this
calendar year.

The
provision and associated charges against the provision for restructuring, each of which relate to the discontinuation of Internet telephony operations, through the three months
ended June 30, 2001, are as follows:

Recognition
of settlement revenues derived from the Company's Internet telephony settlement services through January 2001, when these services were ceased, has been deferred,
due to the low probability of
collection, until the time of cash collection. Settlement revenues include $132,000 and $903,000 of Internet telephony services that were collected during the three and six months ended
June 30, 2001, respectively.

During
the three months ended March 31, 2001 and June 30, 2001, cash received from the sale of fixed assets to third parties was $131,000 and $287,000, respectively. The
sale of these assets resulted in a gain of $48,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2001. As of June 30, 2001, a total of 58 employees had been terminated and $708,000 of severance
costs had been paid and charged against current liabilities. All employee terminations in connection with the restructuring plan have been completed as of June 30, 2001.

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

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes,
which appear elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements, such as statements of expected revenues and expenses,
that involve risk and uncertainties.  We assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the
forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those detailed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission and those discussed in this Form 10-Q, particularly in "Factors That May Affect Future Results."

Unless expressly stated or the content otherwise requires, the terms "we", "our", "us", "the Company" and "GRIC" refer to GRIC Communications, Inc. and
its subsidiaries as a whole.

Overview

We provide services and software that enable our customers to offer Internet-based mobile office communications services, such as Internet roaming, to their
end users worldwide. Our customers include telecommunications companies, Internet service providers, corporate enterprises and newly emerging communications service providers.

From
our inception until 1997 we were both an Internet service provider in Northern California and an independent software developer for the Internet service provider community. In
1997, we sold our local Internet service provider business. We first recognized settlement revenues in 1997, and since 1998 we have derived our revenues primarily from settlement services. From late
1998 until January 2001, our settlement services included Internet telephony services, which are characterized by high revenues with low margins. On January 30, 2001, we announced
actions to focus our business on our Internet roaming service, and to cease our Internet telephony service, based on an analysis of the operating expenses required to support Internet telephony
services along with the low gross margins associated with them, and our expectation that continued Internet telephony operations would require additional cash infusions to the business. In connection
with that new focus, we also restructured our operations by reducing our workforce, eliminating bandwidth costs associated with Internet telephony and reducing equipment and network maintenance
expenses. Following this restructuring we are focused on globally providing Internet-based mobile office communications services.

We
generate settlement revenues when we provide settlement services to customers whose end users initiate Internet communications. For global Internet roaming transactions, our
settlement services consist of tracking usage, collecting the amount that a roamer's "home" service provider owes us, paying the appropriate amount to the service provider enabling local access, and
providing the underlying usage data to our customer to enable end user billing. Revenues during 2000 were primarily settlement revenues generated from Internet telephony transactions, which we
discontinued in January 2001.

We
have incurred substantial losses since our inception as a result of expenses associated with building our GRIC Alliance and related network infrastructure and developing our
software products. As of June 30, 2001, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $104.2 million. We expect to incur additional losses for the foreseeable future, and we cannot
assure you that we will achieve or sustain profitability. See "Factors That May Affect Future ResultsWe have not been profitable to date and we anticipate continued losses during 2001."

Our
business model has evolved in the course of our development and we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our operating results should not be relied
upon as indicative of future performance. Our future prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties

frequently encountered by companies in the early stages of development, particularly companies in new and rapidly evolving markets. See "Factors That May Affect Future ResultsOur
operating history is more limited than that of many other companies, so you may find it difficult to evaluate our business in making an investment decision."

Results of Operations

Second Quarter and Year-to-Date Ended June 30, 2001 Compared to Second Quarter and Year-to-Date Ended June 30,
2000

Revenues

Total revenues decreased to $5.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2001 from $7.0 million in the three months ended
June 30, 2000, representing a decrease of 26%. Total revenues decreased to $10.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $12.2 million in the six months ended
June 30, 2000, representing a decrease of 13%.

Settlement Revenues.Settlement revenues decreased to $5.1 million in the three months ended June 30,
2001 from $6.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2000, representing a decrease of 25%. Settlement revenues decreased to $10.3 million in the six months ended
June 30, 2001 from $11.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000, representing a decrease of 12%. The decreases were due to lower revenues from our Internet telephony
settlement services resulting from our January 2001 restructuring, partially offset by increased revenues from our Internet roaming services. Settlement revenues include $132,000 and $903,000
of Internet telephony services that had been deferred from prior periods due to the low probability of collection, but were collected during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2001,
respectively. We expect settlement revenues from Internet roaming services to increase in each quarter of 2001.

Software and Other Revenues.Software, hardware, and maintenance and services revenues decreased to $137,000 in the
three months ended June 30, 2001 from $264,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2000, representing a decrease of 48%. Software, hardware and maintenance and services revenues decreased
to $282,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $498,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2000, representing a decrease of 43%. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales of
Internet roaming software and maintenance and lower revenue from prepaid Internet telephony software, services and maintenance, which we ceased providing in January 2001. We expect software and
other revenues to constitute an insignificant component of total revenues in 2001.

Costs and Expenses

Cost of Settlement Revenues.Cost of settlement revenues consists of amounts we pay to access the Internet in order to
provide Internet roaming services for our customers and, before our decision to cease providing Internet telephony services, to terminate Internet telephony services for our customers. Cost of
settlement revenues decreased to $2.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2001 from $5.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2000, representing a decrease of
52%. Cost of settlement revenues decreased to $6.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $10.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000, representing a
decrease of 37%. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in Internet telephony settlement costs as a result of our ceasing to provide low margin Internet telephony services during
January 2001. The decrease in Internet telephony settlement costs was partially offset by an increase in Internet roaming costs due to increased volumes of Internet roaming minutes. We expect
that for 2001 the cost of settlement revenues will decline as a percentage
of total settlement revenues as a result of our ceasing to provide Internet telephony service, thereby improving overall settlement margins.

10

---

Cost of Software and Other Revenues.Cost of software, hardware and maintenance services revenues represents the cost
of equipment, software and professional services. Cost of software, hardware and maintenance and services revenues decreased to zero in the three months ended June 30, 2001 from $76,000 in the
three months ended June 30, 2000. Cost of software, hardware and maintenance and services revenues decreased to zero in the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $76,000 in the six months
ended June 30, 2000.

Network and Operations.Network and operations expenses include salaries, depreciation on network equipment, allocated
facility and management information systems costs, benefits, and costs of co-location of network equipment and leased telecommunication lines. Network and operations expenses decreased to
$1.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2001 from $1.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2000, representing a decrease of 11%. Network and operations
expenses increased to $3.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $3.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000, representing an increase of 9%. The
decrease in the three months ended June 30, 2001 was primarily due to our ceasing to provide Internet telephony service in January 2001 resulting in decreased costs of
co-location of network equipment and leased telecommunication lines. This decrease was partially offset by an overall increase in staffing and related expenses to provide customer support
and to operate our network centers 24 hours-a-day, seven days-a-week basis. The increase in the six months ended June 30, 2001 was
primarily due to higher staffing and related expenses in our network and operations centers as compared to the first six months of 2000. We expect that network and operations expenses will remain
relatively flat during the last two quarters of 2001.

Research and Development.Research and development expenses include salaries, benefits and recruiting costs of
employees and outside consultants, quality assurance, allocated facility, management information systems and depreciation costs. Research and development expenses decreased to $1.2 million in
the three months ended June 30, 2001 from $2.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2000, representing a decrease of 57%. Research and development expenses decreased to
$3.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $5.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000, representing a decrease of 32%. The decrease is primarily due to
the decreased complexity of our settlement services model following our January 2001 restructuring of operations. Further, we expect our recently established development center in India to
assist us in reducing our research and development expenses for the remainder of 2001 due to the favorable costs of obtaining engineering talent in India compared to the San Francisco Bay area.

Sales and Marketing.Sales and marketing expenses include salaries, benefits and commissions earned by sales and
marketing personnel, allocated facility, management information systems and depreciation costs, costs for marketing and promotional programs, and costs associated with domestic and international sales
offices. Sales and marketing expenses increased to $3.8 million in the three months
ended June 30, 2001 from $3.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2000, representing an increase of 19%. Sales and marketing expenses increased to $7.6 million in
the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $6.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000, representing an increase of 25%. The increases reflect our investments in marketing and
promotional campaigns to promote our brand identity. The increases also reflect the recruitment and hiring of additional personnel to expand our geographic coverage and to support the growth of our
global Internet roaming services. We expect sales and marketing expenses to increase modestly for the remainder of 2001.

General and Administrative.General and administrative expenses consist of general corporate and facility costs as well
as salary, benefits and related costs for executive, finance, legal, administrative, human resources, investor relations and management information systems functions, and provisions for uncollectible
receivables. General and administrative expenses decreased to $2.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2001 from $2.2 million in the three months ended June 30,
2000, representing a decrease of 9%. General and administrative expenses increased to $5.8 million in the six months ended

11

---

June 30, 2001 from $3.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000, representing an increase of 49%. The decrease in the three months ended June 30, 2001 was primarily
due to a decrease in the provisions for uncollectible receivables resulting from our ceasing to provide Internet telephony service in January 2001. The increase in the six months ended
June 30, 2001 is primarily due to fully reserving, during the first quarter of 2001, all uncollected Internet telephony receivables. The increase also reflects the hiring of additional
personnel and consultants to provide the infrastructure to support future growth, as well as increases in the total fees we were charged for professional services. We expect general and administrative
expenses, excluding the reserve for uncollected Internet telephony receivables, to decrease slightly during the last two quarters of 2001.

Amortization of Stock-Based Compensation.Some stock options previously granted through December 14, 1999 are
considered compensatory because the estimated fair value for accounting purposes was greater than the stock option exercise price as determined by the board of directors on the date of grant. As a
result, we have recorded related amortization of deferred compensation expense of $106,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2001 and $213,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2001. As
of June 30, 2001, we had an aggregate of $839,000 of deferred compensation remaining to be amortized. Deferred compensation is amortized on a straight-line basis over the vesting
period of the options. We expect amortization of approximately $427,000 in each of 2001, and 2002, and $198,000 in 2003.

Restructuring Charge.In connection with our January 2001 restructuring, which we anticipate will be completed
within this calendar year, we incurred a total charge to operations of $7.8 million in the first quarter of 2001. This restructuring charge was composed of $5.6 million for the
retirement of fixed assets, $1.5 million for expected cash payments related to the termination of lease and facility obligations and $708,000 employee severance costs, each of which are related
to our Internet telephony services. During the three months ended March 31, 2001 and June 30, 2001 cash received from the sale of fixed assets to third parties was $131,000 and $287,000,
respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2001 and June 30, 2001, cash payments were made for the termination of lease and facility obligations totaling $310,000 and
$289,000, respectively, and employee severance payments were made
totaling $620,000 for 53 employees and $88,000 for 5 employees, respectively. All employee terminations in connection with the restructuring plan have been completed as of
June 30, 2001.

Interest Income and Other, Net

Interest income and other, net, primarily represents interest income on cash balances. Interest income and other, net, decreased to $273,000 in the three
months ended June 30, 2001 from $970,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2000. Interest income and other, net, decreased to $605,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2000 from
$2.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2000. The decreases are primarily due to the higher cash balances in 2000 resulting from our initial public offering in December 1999
and subsequent reductions for cash used in operations.

Interest Expense

Interest expense consists of amortization of the fair value of warrants issued in connection with our financing activities and interest expense associated with
capital leases and bridge financing. Interest expense decreased to $35,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2001 from $36,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2000. Interest expense
decreased to $73,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $89,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2000, due primarily to the payment of outstanding capital lease obligations.

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes remained the same at $48,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and for the three months ended June 30,
2000. The provision for income taxes decreased to $71,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $76,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2000. The provision for income taxes
consists of foreign tax provisions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Operating activities.Net cash used in operating activities was $18.6 million and $12.8 million in the
six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Net cash used in operating activities in the six months ended June 30, 2001 was primarily due to net operating losses and our
January 2001 strategic restructuring charges.

Investing Activities.Net cash provided (used) in investing activities was $404,000 and $(10.6) million in the
six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Our recent capital expenditures consisted primarily of purchases of computer hardware and software, relating to the network
infrastructure.

Financing Activities.Net cash provided by financing activities was $135,000 and $204,000 in the six months ended
June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Financing activity in the six months ended June 30, 2001, primarily consisted of proceeds from sales of common stock through our employee stock
purchase plan and exercise of stock options.

Commitments.We lease all of our facilities under operating leases that expire at various dates through 2003. As of
June 30, 2001, we had $3.5 million in future operating lease commitments and $770,000 of capital lease obligations and equipment promissory notes.

Summary of Liquidity.Our consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis. At June 30,
2001, we had an accumulated deficit of $104.2 million and incurred a net loss of $24.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. We expect losses to continue during 2001.
Our January 2001 restructuring plan was designed to reduce our operating expenses in 2001, however, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in reducing operating expenses in the
future.

We
believe that total available cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $21.4 million at June 30, 2001, future cash savings as a result of
ceasing to provide our Internet telephony service, our associated operational restructuring, and cash expected to be generated by operations, will be adequate to fund planned operations for at least
the next twelve months.

We
plan to invest in expanding our Internet roaming and related services on a global basis. This will require us to maintain continued favorable market acceptance and growth of our
Internet roaming and related services offerings in order for us to continue our research and development activities and fund planned operating expenses. There can be no assurance that our Internet
roaming product offerings will maintain continued favorable market acceptance, growth and operating margins.

If
we are unable to attain our revenue and margin goals, significant reductions in spending and the delay or cancellation of planned activities or more substantial restructuring may
be necessary to enable us to meet our cash requirements through at least June 2002. These actions could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and prospects.
Furthermore, we may need to raise additional funds in future periods through public or private financing, strategic relationships or other arrangements to fund operations and potential acquisitions,
if any. We may never achieve profitability. Any additional financing, if needed, might not be available on terms acceptable to us or at all. Failure to raise capital when needed could seriously harm
our business and results of operations. If additional funds were raised through the issuance of equity securities, the percentage of ownership of our stockholders would be reduced. Furthermore, these
equity securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our common stock.

Factors That May Affect Future Results

In addition to the information in this Quarterly Report Form 10-Q, the following should be considered in evaluating GRIC and our business.

13

---

We recently restructured our business, which makes our financial results more difficult to analyze.

In January 2001, we restructured our business by ceasing to provide our Internet telephony service and focusing on our Internet roaming service. As a
result, we reduced our employee workforce and eliminated some network and operating expenses. Further, the termination of our Internet telephony service will mean that telephony revenues will be
eliminated and our Internet roaming service will become our primary source of revenue. This concentration of our revenues makes us more dependent on the growth of the Internet roaming market in
general, and will increase the negative impact on our business if our Internet roaming product offerings do not maintain favorable market acceptance and growth or achieve our revenue and margin
targets. The restructuring may also lead to resignations by key employees, which could harm our operations and financial results.

Our financial performance and workforce reduction may adversely affect our ability to retain and hire personnel.

As a result of our January 2001 restructuring and the recent decline in price of our common stock, our personnel may seek opportunities with larger,
more established companies or companies they perceive to have better prospects. This may cause us to lose critical personnel or to increase recruiting expenses, or both.

In
order to implement our model successfully, we will need to retain and hire personnel. Specifically, our sales efforts require highly trained sales personnel. Competition for these
individuals is intense, and we may not be able to hire the type and number of sales personnel we need. Moreover, even after we hire these individuals, they require extensive training in our products
and services. If we are unable to continue to retain our current employees and train new sales personnel as rapidly as necessary, we may not be able to increase market awareness and sales of our
services, which may prevent us from generating revenue and achieving and maintaining profitability.

Our operating history is more limited than that of many other companies, so you may find it difficult to evaluate our business in making an investment decision.

We have limited experience in developing and providing our products and services. Since our inception, we have had limited revenues from our current
Internet-based communications software products and services. In the past we have undertaken development of software products which were either not completed or not delivered on time. We have also
discontinued products that did not achieve widespread market acceptance. Many members of our senior management team and other employees have worked with us for only a short period of time.
Consequently, we have not demonstrated that our business can succeed.

We have not been profitable to date and we anticipate continued losses during 2001.

To date, we have not been profitable. We cannot assure you that we will ever achieve or sustain profitability. We reported operating losses before income taxes
of $32.3 million for 2000, $22.5 million for 1999 and $17.9 million for 1998. As of June 30, 2001, our accumulated deficit was $104.2 million. We expect to incur
operating losses during 2001. We expect to face pressure to adopt new pricing arrangements, including volume discounts, that may lower our gross margins. If revenues do not meet levels we anticipate,
or if our costs and expenses exceed our expectations, we will continue to sustain losses, and our business and the price of our common stock may be harmed.

We may require additional capital for our operations, which could have a negative effect on your investment.

We currently anticipate that our available funds will be sufficient to meet our anticipated needs for working capital and capital expenditures in the
foreseeable future. It is possible that we may need to

14

---

raise additional funds in the future in order to fund operations or acquisitions, particularly if the general economic downturn continues to negatively impact revenues.

If
we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership of our stockholders will be reduced, stockholders may experience
additional dilution and these securities may have powers, preferences and rights that are senior to those of the rights of our common stock. We cannot be certain that additional financing will be
available on terms favorable to us, if at all. If adequate funds are not available or not available on acceptable terms, we may be unable to fund our business operations, promote our brand identity,
take advantage of acquisition opportunities, develop or enhance services or respond to competitive pressures. Any inability to do so could have a negative effect on our business, revenues, financial
condition and results of operations.

Our success depends on our ability to maintain and increase our customer base.

Customers are generally free to use competing products and services, so we could face significant customer losses. Our customers are generally not obligated to
generate minimum revenues, and some generate very little revenue for us. These factors make it difficult to anticipate the level of our future revenues from existing customers. In addition, our
success depends on our ability to expand our customer base. If we lose any significant customer or are unable to expand our customer base and to increase our average revenues per customer, our
business will be harmed.

If we fail to attract larger customers, our revenues could fail to increase.

We face competition from different sources, and we must compete effectively against other current and future competitors to retain and expand our customer
base. To date, our revenues have been principally derived from smaller companies in the Internet marketplace. We have begun to focus our sales and marketing efforts upon larger corporate and
enterprise-level customers. This strategy to broaden our customer base by, among other things, pursuing business opportunities from larger corporate and enterprise accounts places demands on our
business, such as the longer sales cycles, higher levels of service and support and volume pricing and terms that larger corporate and enterprise accounts often require. A failure to obtain more of
our revenues from larger customers could materially adversely
affect our operations and if we have underestimated the costs of this strategy our results could also be harmed.

We depend on our customers to market Internet-based communications services to their end users, so our revenues depend on the activities of others and the market acceptance of
those services.

Our business depends on the efforts and success of our customers in marketing Internet-based communications services to their end users. We have little ability
to promote those services. If our customers fail to market Internet-based communications services effectively, our revenues would be reduced.

We face significant competition, including competition from larger companies.

There are low barriers to entry by businesses seeking to offer services on the Internet. As a result, our business environment is intensely competitive, highly
fragmented and rapidly changing. Competition can come from many sources. For example, we compete directly with iPass in the market for Internet roaming and related settlement services, and iPass has a
network that competes with the GRIC Alliance. Large communications service providers such as AT&T, Equant and UUNET also have the ability and resources to compete with us in the Internet-based mobile
office communications services market.

15

---

Many of our competitors have substantially greater resources, larger customer bases, longer operating histories, greater name recognition and more established relationships in the
industry than we have. Any of these competitors may combine or form strategic partnerships, gaining competitive advantages as a result. Our competitors may be able to develop and market products and
services that are superior to our own in terms of features, quality, pricing or other factors. In that event, our products and services may not achieve the market acceptance necessary for us to
achieve success.

Sales in the Internet infrastructure market are subject to fluctuation.

Although sales to the Internet infrastructure market have grown historically, this market is characterized by large and often sporadic purchases. In addition,
recently, we and other companies in this market, as well as in the computer market generally, have warned of lower-than-expected revenue and declines or delays in sales orders
from customers in the Internet infrastructure market. Sales activity in this industry depends upon the stage of completion of expanding network infrastructures, the
availability of funding and the extent that service providers are affected by regulatory and business conditions in the locale of operations. A decline or delay in sales orders from this industry
could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

If we are unable to manage growth, the GRIC Alliance and our product development efforts effectively, our business and the price of our stock will be harmed.

In recent periods, growth has strained our network operations, product development and other managerial, operating and financial resources. We expect these
strains to continue if we resume our growth, and our financial performance and our ability to compete effectively will depend, in part, on our ability to manage any future growth effectively. If we
are not able to manage research and development efforts, network infrastructure, performance and internal controls effectively, our costs will be higher than expected and our business will be harmed.

Our customers require a high degree of reliability in the delivery of our services, and if we cannot meet their expectations for any reason, demand for our products and
services will suffer.

Our success depends in large part on our ability to assure generally error-free clearinghouse services, uninterrupted operation of our network and
software infrastructure, and a satisfactory experience for our customers' end users. To achieve these objectives, we depend on the quality, performance and scalability of our products and services,
the responsiveness of our technical support and the capacity, reliability and security of our network operations. We also depend on third parties over which we have no control. For example, our
ability to serve approximately 60 countries is based solely on our network access agreement with one service provider and on that service provider's ability to provide reliable Internet access points
in those countries. In the past, we have experienced problems due to our inability to detect system malfunctions and due to errors in collecting or processing account usage and settlement data. Due to
the high level of performance required for critical communications traffic, any failure to deliver a satisfactory experience to end users, whether or not caused by our own failures, and any failure to
provide accurate settlement data in connection with acting as a clearinghouse, could reduce demand for our products and services.

As a clearinghouse, we have greater collection risks than many other companies.

Difficulties in collecting accounts receivable will harm our financial results, and this collection risk is inherently greater for us as a clearinghouse
service provider because we are obligated to pay amounts owed to each customer whether or not we have collected all the amounts due to us from other customers. In addition, if end users or
unauthorized third parties engage in unauthorized or otherwise fraudulent roaming activity, we may face difficulty collecting the resulting accounts receivable. If we are not able to manage this
problem, our financial results will suffer.

If we are unable to develop and introduce new products and services, we will be less likely to attract or retain customers.

We expect the market for Internet-based communications products and services to continue to change rapidly. To succeed, we will be required to adapt to those
changes by improving and enhancing our existing products and services, and developing and introducing new products and services. We have not demonstrated that we can consistently develop and market
product enhancements and new products or services on a timely or cost-effective basis. On several occasions, we have altered the course of our product development efforts or discontinued
products after their introduction, which has resulted in delays and increased research and development expenses. If we fail to produce technologically competitive products and services in a
cost-effective manner and on a timely basis, our business will be harmed.

Our operating results fluctuate and are difficult to predict, so we may fail to satisfy the expectations of investors or market analysts and our stock price may decline.

Our quarterly operating results have fluctuated in the past, and we expect them to fluctuate in the future. Despite our recent restructuring, our business may
fail to grow rapidly enough to offset our operating expenses. As a result, our quarterly operating results could fluctuate. The primary factors that may cause fluctuations in our quarterly operating
results, many of which are beyond our control, include:



Business
models relying on the Internet to provide Internet-based communications services are still evolving. As a result, you should not rely on the results of any past periods as an
indication of our future performance. It is likely that in some future periods, our operating results may be below expectations of public market analysts or investors. If this occurs, the price of our
common stock is likely to decline.

Our long sales cycle makes it particularly difficult for us to forecast revenues, requires us to incur high costs of generating sales, and aggravates fluctuations in quarterly
financial results.

Our business is characterized by a long sales cycle, including contact with a potential customer, establishment of a new customer relationship, winning the new
customer and realizing significant transaction-based revenues. Recently, our revenues have been negatively impacted by the general economic downturn. These factors make it difficult for us to predict
future revenues. In addition, we incur substantial sales costs before we win a customer or recognize any related revenue, which increases the volatility of our results because we may have high costs
without associated offsetting revenues.

Because much of our business is conducted internationally, we encounter special payment and regulatory difficulties, which may reduce our profitability and harm the price of
our common stock.

Because we generate most of our revenues from business conducted internationally, we are subject to special risks. It is costly to maintain international
facilities and operations, promote our brand

17

---

internationally and develop localized systems and support centers. Revenues from certain regions may not offset the expense of maintaining operations in these regions. Additional risks faced by our
international operations include:



We
are also exposed to general geopolitical risks, such as political and economic instability and changes in diplomatic and trade relationships. Any of these factors may reduce our
profitability and harm the price of our common stock.

We need to hire and retain qualified personnel to sustain the growth of our business, which is particularly difficult for us because we compete with other companies in the San
Francisco Bay area where we are based.

Our future success depends, in part, on the continued service of our key executive, management and technical personnel, and our ability to attract new skilled
employees. From time to time we have experienced difficulty in hiring and retaining highly skilled employees, and we expect to continue to experience this sort of difficulty. Competition for employees
in our industry is intense, particularly in the San Francisco Bay area where we are located, and we have experienced significant attrition, particularly after our recent restructuring of operations.
Continued declines in the market price of our common stock could also hurt employee morale and retention. If we are not able to retain our key employees or to attract, assimilate or retain other
highly qualified employees in the future, our business could be harmed because our growth might be slowed or executive leadership might be disrupted.

Litigation arising out of intellectual property infringement or other commercial disputes could be expensive and disrupt our business.

We cannot be certain that our products do not, or will not, infringe upon patents, trademarks, copyrights or other intellectual property rights held by third
parties. In addition, since we rely on third parties to help us develop, market and support our product and service offerings, we cannot assure you that litigation will not arise from disputes
involving those third parties. From time to time we have been, and we expect to continue to be, parties to disputes with these third parties. We may incur substantial expenses in defending against
these claims, regardless of their merit. Successful claims against us may result in substantial monetary liability, significantly impact our results of operations in one or more quarters or materially
disrupt the conduct of our business.

Our executive officers and directors hold a significant percentage of our stock and will be able to control matters requiring stockholder approval.

As of June 30, 2001, our executive officers and directors and their affiliated entities owned approximately 31% of our outstanding common stock.
Accordingly, these stockholders may have a substantial influence on all matters requiring approval by our stockholders, including the election of

18

---

directors and the approval of significant corporate transactions. This concentration could also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of our company.

Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws and Delaware law contain provisions that could discourage a takeover and depress our stock price.

Provisions of our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and Delaware law make it difficult for a third party to acquire us, despite the possible benefit to our
stockholders, and this may potentially lower the price of our common stock. These provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws:



In
addition, we have elected to remain subject to the anti-takeover provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law. These factors may discourage takeover attempts.

If our common stock price falls below and remains under $1.00, or if we otherwise fail to comply with Nasdaq rules, our common stock could be delisted from The Nasdaq National
Market, which could severely limit the trading market for our common stock.

If the market price for our common stock falls and remains below $1.00 per share, our market capitalization falls and remains below $35 million or we
otherwise fail to meet the criteria for continued listing on The Nasdaq National Market, our common stock may be deemed to be penny stock. On July 31, 2001, the closing price of our common
stock was $1.34. If our common stock were considered penny stock, it would be subject to rules that impose additional sales practices on broker-dealers who sell our securities. Because of these
additional obligations, some brokers may be unwilling to effect transactions in penny stocks. This could have an adverse effect on the liquidity of our common stock and your ability to sell the common
stock.

Future developments in Internet-based communications services, which are critical to our success, are uncertain.

For us to increase our revenues, the Internet must be validated as an effective medium for the delivery of Internet roaming and other Internet-based
communications services. The infrastructure of the public Internet may not be able to support increased demands placed on it, and the performance of the Internet may be adversely affected. Our
business will be harmed if the Internet does not continue to grow as a telecommunications medium, and that growth may be inhibited by factors such as:



Security concerns may deter the use of the Internet for Internet-based communications, which would reduce demand for our products and services.

The secure transmission of confidential information over public networks is a significant barrier to widespread adoption of electronic commerce and
communications. The Internet is a public network and information is sent over this network from many sources. Advances in computer capabilities, new

19

---

discoveries in the field of cryptography or other developments could result in compromised security on our network or the networks of others. If any well-publicized compromises of
confidential information were to occur, it could reduce demand for Internet-based communications and our products and services.

We may be affected by regional electric shortages.

Recently, California has been experiencing a shortage of electric power supply that has resulted in intermittent loss of power in some areas in the form of
rolling blackouts. A blackout may affect our ability to provide our Internet services. If blackouts were to interrupt our power supply, we would be temporarily unable to continue operations at our
main U.S. facility. Any such interruption in our ability to continue operations at our main U.S. facility could damage our reputation, harm our ability to retain existing customers and to obtain new
customers, and could result in lost revenue, any of which could substantially harm our business and results of operations.

U.S. or foreign governmental regulations regarding the Internet and Internet-based services may be enacted, which could impede our business.

To date, governmental laws and regulations applicable to access to or commerce on the Internet have not materially restricted use of the Internet in our
markets. However, the legal and regulatory environment that pertains to the Internet is uncertain and may change. For example, Congress and other federal entities have adopted or are considering
legislative and regulatory proposals that would regulate the Internet and Internet-based services. The European Union has enacted several directives relating to the Internet, including one which
affects U.S. companies that collect or transmit information over the Internet from individuals in European Union Member States. New domestic or foreign taxes could also be adopted that would apply to
the delivery or use of communications services over the Internet. Uncertainty about and adoption of new regulations could increase our costs of doing business, or prevent us from delivering our
products and services over the Internet or significantly slow the growth of the Internet. This could delay growth in demand for our products and services and harm our business.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS

Foreign Currency Risk.We have limited exposure to financial market risks, including changes in foreign currency
exchange rates and interest rates. Although we have foreign operations in Europe and Asia, to date, our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations has not been significant.

Interest Rate Risk.Our exposure to interest rate risk relates primarily to our investment portfolio and debt
obligations. Interest rate risk occurs when we cannot hold a purchased investment to its maturity. We limit the weighted-average maturity of our investment portfolio to 90 days. We intend to
hold our securities until maturity and, therefore, do not expect to recognize an adverse impact on income or cash flows, although there can be no assurance of this. We have established policies and
business practices regarding our investment portfolio to preserve principal while obtaining reasonable rates of return without significantly increasing risk. We place investments with high credit
quality issuers according to our investment policy. We do not use derivative financial instruments in our investment portfolio. All investments are carried at fair market value for 2001. Due to the
short-term nature of our investments and the immaterial amount of our debt obligation, we believe that there is no material exposure to interest fluctuation. Therefore, no accompanying
table has been provided.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On July 24, 2001, we and four of our officers were named as defendants in a purported securities class-action lawsuit filed in the United States
District Court, Southern District of New York. This lawsuit is captioned Colbert Birnet LP v. GRIC Communications, Inc. et al., No. 01 CIV. 6771. On August 1, 2001, a
substantially identical lawsuit was filed in the same court, naming us and four of our officers, under the caption Northern Capital Holdings Inc. v. GRIC Communications, Inc. et al.,
No. 01 CIV. 7124. To date, substantially identical lawsuits have been filed against more than 100 other technology companies who sold shares of their companies' respective common stock in
initial public offerings during 1999 and 2000. The present complaints allege claims against us, certain of our officers (each suit names a different set of four officers), and/or CIBC World Markets
Corp., Prudential Securities Incorporated and U.S. Bancorp Piper Jaffray Inc., underwriters of our December 14, 1999 initial public offering, under Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended. The complaints also allege claims solely against CIBC World Markets Corp., Prudential Securities Incorporated and U.S. Bancorp Piper Jaffray Inc. under
Section 12(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and against all the named defendants under Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The complaints appear to allege
that CIBC World Markets Corp., Prudential Securities Incorporated and U.S. Bancorp Piper Jaffray Inc. entered into improper commissions agreements regarding aftermarket trading in our common
stock purportedly issued pursuant to the registration statement for the initial public offering. The lawsuit brought by Northern Capital Holdings Inc. also names Deutsche Bank
Securities, Inc. as a defendant and alleges claims against them substantially similar to the claims alleged against CIBC World Markets Corp., Prudential Securities Incorporated and U.S. Bancorp
Piper Jaffray Inc. We believe that the lawsuits are without legal merit and intend to defend them vigorously.

ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

On December 14, 1999, a registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-87497) was declared effective by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, pursuant to which 5,290,000 shares of our common stock were offered and sold for our account at a price of $14.00 per share, generating gross proceeds of
approximately $74 million. Each outstanding share of preferred stock was automatically converted into one share of common stock upon the closing of the initial public offering. The managing
underwriters were CIBC World Markets, U.S. Bancorp Piper Jaffray and Prudential Volpe Technology.

In
connection with the offering, we incurred $5.2 million in underwriting discounts and commissions, and $2.0 million in other related expenses. The net proceeds from
the offering, after deducting the foregoing expenses, were $66.8 million. From the effective date of the registration statement through June 30, 2001, we applied $10.1 million of
the proceeds towards short-term investments, $12.9 million of the proceeds towards capital expenditures and the balance of the proceeds to working capital.
