REPORT ON EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION

The Board of Directors reviewed and approved the compensation and fringe
benefits for the Company's officers, consisting of six persons. The Board
evaluates the performance of all officers, and administers the Company's
compensation program for its officers.

Compensation Philosophy

The Company's compensation philosophy for officers conforms to its
compensation philosophy for all employees generally. The Company's compensation
is designed to:

o Provide compensation comparable to that offered by companies with
similar business, allowing the Company to successfully attract and
retain the employees necessary to its long-term success.

o Provide compensation that rewards individual achievement and
differentiates among employees based upon individual performance.

o Provide incentive compensation that varies according to both the
Company's success in achieving its performance goals and the
employee's contribution to that success; and

o Provide an appropriate linkage between employee compensation and
the creation of share owner value through awards that are tied to
the Company's financial performance and by facilitating employee
stock ownership.

In furtherance of these goals, the Company's officers' compensation comprises
salary, annual cash bonuses, long-term incentive compensation in the form of
stock options and various fringe benefits, including medical benefits and a
401(k) savings plan.

Salaries

The Board of Directors reviewed the salaries of all the officers of the
Company for fiscal year 2000. The Board of Directors made salary decisions
concerning the officers based upon a variety of considerations in conformance
with the compensation philosophy stated above. First, salaries were
competitively set relative to both other companies in the software industry and
other comparable companies. Second, the Board of Directors considered each
officer's level of responsibility and individual performance, including an
assessment of the person's overall value to the Company. Third, internal equity
among employees was factored into the decision. Finally, the Board of Directors
considered the Company's financial performance and its ability to absorb any
increases in salaries.

Bonuses

Each officer is eligible to receive an annual cash bonus that is
generally paid pursuant to an incentive compensation formula established at the
beginning of a year in connection with the preparation of the Company's
operating budget for the year. In formulating decisions with respect to cash
bonus awards, the Board of Directors evaluates each officer's role and
responsibility in the Company and other factors that the Board deems relevant to
motivate each officer to achieve strategic performance goals.

-8-

Stock Options

The Company has a stock option plan that is designed to align the
interests of the share owners and the Company's officers in the enhancement of
share owner value. Stock options are granted under the plan by an administrative
committee comprising disinterested members of the Board of Directors. In
general, stock options are granted at an exercise price not lower than the fair
market value of the Company's Common Stock on the date of grant. In formulating
its recommendations to the administrative committee for the stock option plan,
the Board of Directors evaluates the Company's overall financial performance for
the year, the desirability of long-term service from an officer and the number
of stock options held by other officers in the Company who have the same, more
or less responsibility. To encourage long-term performance, the stock options
granted in fiscal year 2000 vest ratably over a four-year period and expire up
to five years after the date of grant.

Chief Executive Officer Compensation

At January 31, 2001, both Robert H. Reback and David P. Faulkner were
appointed to the Office of the President to fulfill the duties of the President
and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The total compensation for these two
individuals for fiscal year 2000 is disclosed in the "Summary Compensation
Table" above, and primarily consisted of salary and stock options.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

On April 1, 1999 the Company entered into a new agreement with
Bicoastal Holding Company providing for the continued services of Paul A.
Bilzerian, as President and Chief Executive Officer of Cimetrix. The agreement
required that the Company pay Bicoastal Holding Company for his services at a
rate of $10,000 per month for his services through December 31, 2000, and a
$1,500 monthly living allowance. On September 15, 2000, Mr. Bilzerian resigned
from the Board of Cimetrix and the Company hired Mr. Bilzerian directly as
President of the Company, buying out the remainder of the contract with
Bicoastal Holding Company for $35,750. On January 30, 2001, Mr. Bilzerian
resigned his position as President and as an employee of Cimetrix.

In February 2000, the Company contracted to purchase a passenger
automobile for Paul A. Bilzerian, then President and Chief Executive Officer of
the Company, and his family. The purchase agreement requires the Company to make
monthly payments of approximately $588 over a period of 60 months, beginning
February 1, 2001. The Company has also been providing insurance coverage on the
automobile. Terri L. Steffen, wife of Mr. Bilzerian, has agreed to make all
payments under the purchase agreement and to reimburse the Company for the
insurance costs. As of April 30, 2001, Ms. Steffen has made all required
payments under the purchase agreement.

On January 18, 2001, the Company loaned Paul A. Bilzerian, then
President and Chief Executive Officer, a total of $22,000 to pay for legal
expenses. Mr. Bilzerian signed a Promissory Note with the Company, which
requires the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Note plus
accrued interest at the rate of 10% annually upon demand. Lowell K. Anderson, a
director of the Company, signed an Unconditional Guarantee, which guarantees
payment of the Note, and a Stock Pledge Agreement, in which Mr. Anderson pledged
10,000 shares of the Company's common stock to secure the loan.

-9-

The Company has been contacted by the Washington D.C. law firm of Shaw
Pittman claiming that the Company owes the firm $36,605 in additional legal fees
and expenses for the legal services it provided to Mr. Bilzerian. Shaw Pittman
maintains that the Company is responsible for the payment of these fees inasmuch
as Mr. Bilzerian signed a fee agreement with the firm, both individually and as
President of Cimetrix guaranteeing payment of all legal expenses. Mr. Bilzerian
maintains that he expressly notified Shaw Pittman not to provide any legal
services for him at a cost greater than $22,000. The Company has not paid these

In January 2000, the Company increased its holdings in its Japanese
affiliate, Aries, Inc., by investing an additional $478,000, for the purchase of
an additional 500 shares of Aries stock, bringing the Company's holdings to 600
shares. The 500 shares were purchased in a sale of 2,950 shares by Aries, Inc.,
which brought the Company's total ownership in Aries to approximately 18%. On

PROPOSAL NO. 2

APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO THE 1998 STOCK OPTION PLAN

The Board of Directors adopted on April 30, 2001, subject to the
approval by the shareholders, an amendment (the "2001 amendment") to the
Company's 1998 Stock Option Plan. The 2001 Amendment increases from 2,000,000 to
3,000,000 the number of shares of the Company's common stock available for
issuance under the 1998 Stock Option Plan.

The Company has in the past used, and intends in the future to use,
stock options as incentive devices to motivate and compensate its salaried
officers and other key employees, and believes that equity incentives
represented by stock options enhances the Company's ability in attracting and
retaining the best possible persons for positions of significant responsibility
by providing its officers and other key employees with additional incentives to
contribute to the Company's success.

Management further believes the availability of such equity incentives
has served, and will continue to serve, an important part of the implementation
of the Company's acquisition strategy. As of April 30, 2001, options to purchase
an aggregate of 27,500 shares of common stock have been exercised under the 1998
stock option plan; as of such date, options to purchase 1,548,000 shares of
common stock were outstanding under the 1998 Stock Option plan. Accordingly,
only options to purchase 424,500 shares remain available for future grants under
the 1998 Stock Option Plan as of such date.

The Board of Directors recommends that the shareholders vote "for"
approval of the 2001 Amendment.

PROPOSAL NO. 3

The Board of Directors recommends that the shareholders vote "for"
ratification of the appointment of Tanner + Co. as the Company's independent
public accountants for fiscal 2001.

PERFORMANCE GRAPH

The following graph shows a comparison of the five year cumulative
total return for the Company's Common Stock, the Nasdaq Stock Market (U.S.)
Index, and the Nasdaq Computer and Data Processing Stocks Index, assuming an
investment of $100 on December 31, 1995. The cumulative return of the Company
was computed by dividing the difference between the price of the Company's
Common Stock at the end and the beginning of the measurement period (December
31, 1995 to December 31, 2000) by the price of the Company's Common Stock at the
beginning of the measurement period.
