MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THIS REPORT ON FORM 10-K/A CONTAINS FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS THAT HAVE BEEN MADE PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995. SUCH FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS ARE BASED ON CURRENT EXPECTATIONS, ESTIMATES AND PROJECTIONS ABOUT THE COMPANY'S BUSINESS, MANAGEMENT'S BELIEFS AND ASSUMPTIONS MADE BY MANAGEMENT. WORDS SUCH AS "ANTICIPATES," "EXPECTS," "INTENDS," "PLANS," "BELIEVES," "SEEKS," "ESTIMATES," "LIKELY" AND VARIATIONS OF SUCH WORDS AND SIMILAR EXPRESSIONS ARE INTENDED TO IDENTIFY SUCH FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. THESE STATEMENTS ARE NOT GUARANTEES OF FUTURE PERFORMANCE AND ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RISKS, UNCERTAINTIES AND ASSUMPTIONS THAT ARE DIFFICULT TO PREDICT; THEREFORE, ACTUAL RESULTS AND OUTCOMES MAY DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM WHAT IS EXPRESSED OR FORECASTED IN ANY SUCH FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. SUCH RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES INCLUDE THOSE SET FORTH ABOVE UNDER "FACTORS AFFECTING OUR BUSINESS,OPERATING RESULTS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION" AND ELSEWHERE IN THIS REPORT AS WELL AS THOSE NOTED IN OUR PUBLIC FILINGS WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION ("SEC"). THE COMPANY UNDERTAKES NO OBLIGATION TO UPDATE PUBLICLY ANY FORWARD- LOOKING STATEMENTS, WHETHER AS A RESULT OF NEW INFORMATION, FUTURE EVENTS OR OTHERWISE. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the sections titled "Factors Affecting our business operating results and financial condition" and "Business"under item 1 in OUR ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K FILED WITH THE SEC On APRIL 1, 2002 Overview Be was founded in 1990 and prior to the cessation of its business operations offered software solutions designed for Internet appliances and digital media applications. On August 16, 2001, we entered into an asset purchase agreement with Palm, Inc. to sell substantially all of our intellectual property and other technology assets. This transaction was approved by our stockholders on November 12, 2001 and was completed on November 13, 2001. On March 15, 2002, we filed a Certificate of Dissolution with the Secretary of State of Delaware pursuant to Section 275 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, closed our transfer books and voluntarily delisted our common stock from the Nasdaq National Market System. Prior to 1998, we had no revenues and our operations consisted primarily of research and development. In December 1998, we shipped the first version of BeOS, our desktop operating system targeted primarily to end users. Prior releases of BeOS were targeted primarily to software developers. Throughout 1999 we focused on delivering BeOS as a desktop operating system to end users, but ultimately determined the barriers to entry and the cost of intense competition in that market was more than we could overcome. In recognition of this, and to address shareholder value, in 2000 we shifted our resources to focus primarily on the market for Internet appliances and the further development, marketing and deployment of BeIA, our software solution intended for Internet appliances. At the same time we announced that we would be making available at no charge a version of BeOS for personal use, and a more fully featured version would be available for a charge through third party publishers. Our revenues in 2000 were primarily generated from the sale of BeOS to our licensed third party publishers, and other resellers and distributors, and direct sales of BeOS to end users through our BeDepot.com Web site. We also generated revenue by collecting commission from sales of third party software through our BeDepot.com Web site. In 2001, revenues were generated through royalty payments, maintenance and support fees, professional services and integration fees and by revenue-related consulting services performed after August 16, 2001 under a funding agreement with Palm executed in connection with the asset sale. These payments and fees were received from developers and manufacturers of Internet appliances, as well as other systems and hardware manufacturers incorporating BeIA into their products. However, revenues from BeIA did not offset the loss of revenues from sales of BeOS. Upon the completion of the sale of substantially all of our assets to Palm, we received an aggregate of 4,104,478 shares of Palm common stock and sold these shares on November 13, 2001 for $10,100,772 in cash, net of brokerage and transaction fees. As a result of the sale of our assets and the cessation of our business operations, we do not expect to generate any future revenues. Our research and development expenses consisted primarily of compensation and related costs for research and development personnel. We also included in research and development expenses the costs relating to licensing of technologies and amortization of costs of software tools used in the development of our operating system. Costs incurred in the research and development of new releases and enhancements are expensed as incurred. These costs included the cost of licensing technology that is incorporated into a product or an enhancement that is still in preliminary development, and for which technological feasibility has not been established. Once the product is further developed and technological feasibility has been established, development costs are capitalized until the product is available for general release. Products and enhancements have generally reached technological feasibility and were released for sale at substantially the same time. As we have ceased business operations, we do not expect to incur any research and development expenses in the future. 5 Our sales and marketing expenses consisted primarily of compensation and related costs for sales and marketing personnel, marketing programs, public relations, investor relations, promotional materials, travel, and related expenses for attending trade shows. In July 2001, we eliminated our sales and marketing group. As we have ceased operations, we do not expect to incur any sales and marketing expenses in the future. General and administrative expenses consisted primarily of compensation and related expenses for management, finance, and accounting personnel, professional services and related fees, occupancy costs and other expenses. We expect our general and administrative expenses in the future to be minimal as we intend for only one employee to remain with the Company in order to facilitate the wind up of the company's operations and to oversee legal proceedings. In the past, we marketed and sold our products in the United States and internationally. International sales of products accounted for approximately 0%, 23% and 56% of total revenues in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. We do not expect to generate any revenues in the near or extended future. From time to time in the past, we have granted stock options to employees, consultants and non-employee directors. As of December 31, 2001, we had recorded deferred compensation related to these options in the total amount of $12.6 million, net of cancellations, representing the difference between the deemed fair value of our common stock, as determined for accounting purposes, and the exercise price of options at the date of grant. Of this amount, $11.9 million had been amortized at December 31, 1999, with $2.6 and $(2.0) million being amortized in 2000 and 2001, respectively. The negative amount shown for 2001 is due to the cancellation of options. Future amortization of expense arising out of options granted through December 31, 2001 is estimated to be $38,000 and $1,000 for 2002 and 2003 respectively. We amortize the deferred compensation charge monthly over the vesting period of the underlying option. Due to cessation of our business operations, we do not expect to grant stock options to employees, consultants or directors in the future. Comparison Certain prior year costs have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. Operating expenses as shown in Item 6 - Selected Financial Data, include non-cash charges for stock compensation amortization as follows: Year Ended December 31, 1999 2000 2001 ---- ---- ---- (in thousands) Amortization of deferred compensation included in: Research and development.................... $ 1,927 $ 794 $ (551) Sales and marketing......................... 1,692 646 (533) General and administrative.................. 2,614 1,173 (912) ------ ---------- ----- Total amortization of deferred stock compensation $ 6,233 $ 2,613 $ (1,996) ======== ======== ========= Excluding the amortization of deferred compensation, operating expenses are as follows: Year Ended December 31, 1999 2000 2001 ---- ---- ---- (in thousands) Operating expenses: Research and development.................... $ 8,502 $ 8,345 $ 6,820 Sales and marketing......................... 9,274 7,166 2,214 General and administrative.................. 2,506 3,567 3,689 Amortization of deferred stock compensation 6,233 2,613 (1,996) ------- ------- ------- Total operating expenses...................... $ 26,515 $ 21,691 $ 10,727 ========= ========= ======== 6 Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2001 to the Year Ended December 31, 2000 Net Revenues. Net revenues increased $2.2 million to $2.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 from $480,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000. Revenues are not directly comparable as they were mainly attributable to shipments of BeOS in 2000 and to BeIA integration services and revenue-related consulting services in 2001, the latter being performed under a funding agreement entered into with Palm on August 16, 2001, in connection with the sale of substantially all of our assets to Palm. Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues increased $1.7 million to $2.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 from $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. A majority of such costs resulted from the continued amortization of technology license agreements. In addition, in the quarter ended September 30, 2001, the remaining book value of these technology agreements of $539,000 was determined to be impaired and was therefore expensed. Research and Development. Research and development expenses decreased $1.5 million, or 18%, to $6.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 from $8.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. This decrease is mainly due to the reductions in workforce in April and July 2001 as well as to the termination of our remaining engineering team after the completion of the sale of our assets to Palm on November 13, 2001. Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses decreased $5.0 million, or 69%, to $2.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 from $7.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. This decrease is primarily attributable to the restructuring of our operations, implemented early in the second quarter of 2001, and to the elimination of our sales and marketing departments on July 31, 2001. General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses were relatively constant at $3.7 million for the year ended December 30, 2001 as compared with $3.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. Lower payroll expenses following the reductions in workforce carried out in April and July 2001 were partially offset by higher insurance costs. Amortization of Deferred Stock Compensation. Amortization of deferred stock compensation decreased $4.6 million to $(2.0) million for the year ended December 31, 2001, from $2.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. The decrease is attributable to the cancellation of options and to the use of an amortization methodology, which tends to record higher compensation in the initial years of the vesting period. These amounts represent the allocated portion of the difference between the deemed fair value of our common stock and the exercise price of stock options granted by us to employees and non-employee directors. Interest and Other Income (Expense), Net. Net other income increased $3.9 million to $5.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2001, from $1.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. The increase is primarily attributable to the sale of substantially all of our assets to Palm on November 13, 2001, partially offset by the decrease in interest income due to the reduced balances in our investment portfolio used to fund operations. Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2000 to the Year Ended December 31, 1999 Net Revenues. Net revenues decreased $2.2 million to $480,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000 from $2.7 million for the year ended December 31, 1999. This decrease was primarily attributable to lower shipments of BeOS, which we believe resulted from making a version of BeOS available for free download. Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues decreased $339,000, or 24%, to $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2000 from $1.4 million for the year ended December 31, 1999. Gross margin was negative as a result of the continuing amortization of technology license agreements. Research and Development. Research and development expenses were relatively constant at $8.3 million for the year ended December 30, 2000 as compared with $8.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1999. Lower outside consulting expenses were partially offset by increases in payroll expenses due to additional headcount. Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses decreased $2.1 million, or 23%, to $7.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2000 from $9.3 million for the year ended December 31, 1999. This decrease was primarily attributable to our shift in resources to focus on the Internet appliances market, and resulting shift in our potential customer base from end users to device and service providers. Additionally, the Web site technology purchased in 1998 was now fully amortized. 7 General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased $1.1 million, or 42%, to $3.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2000 from $2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1999. This increase was primarily attributable to the full year expenses associated with the activities of a public company. Amortization of Deferred Stock Compensation. Amortization of deferred stock compensation decreased $3.6 million to $2.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, from $6.2 million for the year ended December 31, 1999. These amounts represent the allocated portion of the difference between the deemed fair value of our common stock and the exercise price of stock options granted by us to employees and non-employee directors. Interest and Other Income (Expense), Net. Net other income increased $367,000, or 47%, to $1.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, from $789,000 for the year ended December 31, 1999. The increase was primarily attributable to the increase in interest income due to the increased balances in our investment portfolio following our initial public offering. Liquidity and Capital Resources Since our inception, we traditionally financed our operations primarily through the sale of our equity securities and through borrowing arrangements. On November 13, 2001, we sold substantially all of our assets to Palm for approximately $11.0 million in Palm stock. That same day, we sold 4,104,478 shares of Palm stock for $10,100,772 in cash, net of brokerage and transaction fees. Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments decreased approximately $8.7 million to $5.4 million at December 31, 2001, from $14.1 million at December 31, 2000. This decrease is primarily attributable to the amounts used to fund operations, net of the proceeds from the sale of our assets to Palm. Cash used in operating activities decreased $3.7 million to $13.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 as compared to $17.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. This decrease is primarily attributable to the decrease in the net operating loss, net of non-cash items, and to the decrease in payables balances during the year ended December 31, 2001. Cash provided by investing activities was approximately $9.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 as compared with $17.1million for the year ended December 31, 2000. This change is primarily attributable to the asset sale to Palm and to net sales of short-term investments in the year ended December 31, 2001. For a more detailed explanation of the Company's net gain on the asset sale to Palm, see Note 3 to the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements on page F-12 of this Amended Annual Report. Cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2001 was approximately $5.7 million as compared with $3.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2000. This change is primarily attributable to net proceeds from the sale of substantially all of our assets to Palm in November 2001, net of the reduced proceeds from the exercise of stock options. Since November 2001, we have been winding down our operations and have substantially reduced our working capital requirements. Our working capital requirements are now minimal and we believe that existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to meet our remaining operating and capital requirements for the next twelve months or the period of liquidation if sooner. As part of the winding down process, we intend to distribute part of our remaining cash to our shareholders as soon as practicable under Delaware law and dissolution procedures. After that time, we intend to retain only a nominal amount of cash to complete the winding down process. Critical Accounting Policies Use of estimates The preparation of unaudited financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Accounting for Long-Lived Assets The Company reviews its property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability is measured by comparison of its carrying amount to future net cash flows the assets are expected to generate. 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 projected discounted future cash flows arising from the asset. 8 At each balance sheet date, the unamortized cost of purchased software is compared to the net realizable value of the related software product. The amount by which the unamortized cost exceeds the net realizable value of the software is charged to operations. The net realizable value of the software product is determined by estimating future gross revenues and reduced by the estimated future costs of selling the product. Research and development costs Costs incurred in the research and development of new software products are expensed as incurred, including minimum payments made and due to third parties for technology incorporated into the Company's product, until technological feasibility is established. Development costs are capitalized beginning when a product's technological feasibility has been established and ending when the product is available for general release to customers. Products and enhancements generally reached technological feasibility and were released for sale at substantially the same time. Revenue recognition In 2001, the Company's revenue was primarily derived from BeIA integration services and revenue-related consulting services, the latter being performed under a funding agreement that was entered into on August 16, 2001 in connection with the sale of substantially all of the Company's assets to Palm. In the second half of 2000, the Company's revenue was primarily derived from royalties on sales of BeOS by third-party publishers. In prior periods, revenue was generated from licensing fees on sales to end-users either by direct-order on the Company's web site or sales by distributors. The Company recognized product revenues from orders on the Company's web site upon shipment, provided a credit card authorization was received, the fee was fixed and determinable, collection of resulting receivables was probable and product returns were reasonably estimable. The Company used a standard shrink wrap license for all of its sales. Under the license, the Company was obligated to provide limited telephone support to end users who purchase the Company's product and provided a 5-day money back guarantee. The Company accrued the costs of providing telephone support upon shipment of the product based on the historical cost of providing such support to its customers. In addition, upon shipment of its product, the Company recorded an allowance for estimated sales returns. Product revenues for sales to its distributors were recognized upon sell through to an end user provided a signed contract existed, the fee was fixed and determinable and collection was probable. The Company recognized revenue from these distributors upon sale by the distributors to an end user because the Company did not have sufficient experience with the distributors to reasonably estimate returns. Stock-based compensation The Company accounts for stock based employee compensation arrangements in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, or APB 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" as interpreted by FIN 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions involving Stock Compensation, No. 25"and Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation ("FIN") No.28, "Accounting for Stock Appreciation Rights and Other Variable Stock Option or Award Plans," and complies with the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, or SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." Under APB 25, compensation expense is based on the difference, if any, on the date of grant, between the estimated fair value of the Company's common stock and the exercise price. SFAS 123 defines a "fair value" based method of accounting for an employee stock option or similar equity investment. The pro forma disclosures of the difference between the compensation expense included in net loss and the related cost measured by the fair value method are presented in Note 7. The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to nonemployees in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123 and Emerging Issues Task Force 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services." 9 ITEM 8.

We also announced a version of BeOS would be made available for personal use at no charge. After the first quarter of 2000, net revenues were primarily generated by royalties received from third-party publishers. The decrease in net revenues was primarily attributable to lower shipments of BeOS, which we believe resulted from making a version of BeOS available for free download. In 2001, revenues were primarily generated under BeIA integration services and revenue-related consulting services, the latter being performed under a funding agreement that was entered into August 16, 2001, in connection with the sale of substantially all of our assets to Palm. Amortization of licensed or acquired technology was charged to cost of revenues and as a result of the continuing amortization of technology license agreements, gross margins were negative in year 2000. In the quarter ended September 30, 2001, the remaining book value of these technology agreements of $539,000 was determined to be impaired and was therefore expensed. Quarterly fluctuations in research and development expenses related primarily to costs associated with increased personnel and related costs and the costs of licensing technology used for development of BeOS. Concurrently with the sale of substantially all of our assets to Palm in November 13, 2001, our remaining research and development team was transferred to Palm. From the first quarter of 2000, sales and marketing expenses began to decrease following our decision to reallocate capital to focus on the Internet appliances market and shifting our potential customer base from end users to OEMs and ODMs. In 2001, sales and marketing expenses decreased further due to to the restructuring of our operations implemented early in the second quarter of 2001 and to the elimination of our sales and marketing departments on July 31, 2001. In the quarter ended December 31, 2001, we completed the sale of substantially all of our intellectual property and other technology assets to Palm, recognizing a net gain of approximately $4.9 million. 10 PART IV ITEM 14.

F-5 BE INCORPORATED Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements NOTE 1--NATURE OF BUSINESS: Be Incorporated ("Be" or the "Company") was founded in 1990 and offered software platforms designed for Internet appliances and digital media applications. On August 16, 2001, the Board of Directors of the Company unanimously adopted resolutions approving the sale of substantially all of the Company's intellectual property and other technology assets (the "Asset Sale") to ECA Subsidiary Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Palm, Inc. ("Palm"), pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement dated August 16, 2001. On October 9, 2001, the Company filed a definitive proxy statement soliciting stockholder approval for the Asset Sale and the dissolution of the Company pursuant to a plan of dissolution (the "Plan of Dissolution"). The Plan of Dissolution provides for the orderly liquidation of Be's remaining assets, the winding-up of Be's business and operations and the dissolution of the Company. In accordance with the terms of the Plan of Dissolution, Be will pay, or provide for the payment of, all of its liabilities and obligations following the approval of the Board to proceed with the liquidation and dissolution of the company. If there are any remaining assets after the payment, or the provision for payment, of all of its liabilities and obligations, Be will then distribute such assets to its stockholders in one or more distributions. At a special meeting of stockholders held on November 12, 2001, the stockholders of Be approved the Asset Sale and the Plan of Dissolution. The Asset Sale was completed on November 13, 2001. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Be received an aggregate of 4,104,478 shares of Palm common stock valued at approximately $11,000,000 on the closing date of the transaction. On March 15, 2002, the Company filed a certificate of dissolution with the Delaware Secretary of State in accordance with the plan of dissolution approved by stockholders on November 12, 2001 and as set forth in the Definitive Proxy Statement filed on October 9, 2001. Traditionally, the Company's revenues were primarily generated from the following sources: sale of BeOS to resellers and distributors, and direct sales of BeOS to end users through our BeDepot.com Web site. In 2000, the Company shifted its resources to focus primarily on the market for Internet appliances and the further development and marketing of BeIA, its software platform intended for Internet appliances. At the same time it announced that it would be making available at no charge a version of BeOS for personal use, and a more fully featured version would be available for a charge through third party publishers. During 2001, revenues were mainly attributable to BeIA integration services and revenue-related consulting services in 2001, the latter being performed under a funding agreement that was entered into August 16, 2001 in connection with the Asset Sale. NOTE 2--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: Basis of presentation These unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis and therefore contemplate the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Following its March 15, 2002 filing of a certificate of dissolution with the Delaware Secretary of State, the Company adopted liquidation accounting (see Note 5). Since November 2001, the Company has been winding down its operations and has substantially reduced its working capital requirements. The Company's working capital requirements are now minimal and it believes that existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to meet operating and capital requirements for the next twelve months. As part of the winding down process, the Company intends to distribute part of its remaining cash to its shareholders as soon as practicable under Delaware law and dissolution procedures. After that time, the Company intends to retain only a nominal amount of cash to complete the winding down process. F-6 BE INCORPORATED Notes to Unaudited Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) Principles of consolidation These uanudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Foreign currency translation The functional currency of the Company's foreign subsidiary is the U.S. Dollar. Nonmonetary assets and liabilities are remeasured into U.S. Dollars at historical rates, monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at exchange rates in effect at the end of the year and income statement accounts are remeasured at average rates for the period. Remeasurement gains and losses of the Company's foreign subsidiary are included in the results of operations and are not significant. Use of estimates The preparation of unaudited financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Financial instruments The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original or remaining maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are deposited with two major banks in the United States. Deposits in these banks may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. The Company has not experienced any losses on its deposits of its cash and cash equivalents. Management has classified all of its short-term investments as available for sale. Realized gains and losses are calculated using the specific identification method. Realized gains and losses in 2001, 2000 and 1999 were not significant. The Company had no short-term investments at December 31, 2001 and unrealized gains and losses at December 31, 2000 and 1999 are shown in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Stockholders' Equity (Deficit) - Unaudited. The carrying amounts of certain of the Company's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to their short maturities. The fair value of short term investments is set forth in note 4 of Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. Certain risks and concentrations Although the Company filed a certificate of dissolution on March 15, 2002 with the State of Delaware, it will continue to exist for three years following this date or for such longer period as the Delaware Court of Chancery shall direct for the purpose of prosecuting and defending lawsuits and enabling Be to close its business, to dispose of its property, to discharge its liabilities and to distribute to its stockholders any remaining assets. Under Delaware law, in the event Be fails to create an adequate contingency reserve for payment of its expenses and liabilities during this period, each Be stockholder could be held liable for payment to Be's creditors of such stockholder's pro rata share of amounts owed to creditors in excess of the contingency reserve. The liability of any stockholder would be limited to the amounts previously received by such stockholder from Be (and from any liquidating trust or trusts). As a result, a stockholder could be required to return all distributions previously made to such stockholder and would receive no amounts from Be under the Plan of Dissolution. Moreover, in the event a stockholder has paid taxes on amounts previously received, a repayment of all or a portion of such amount could result in a stockholder incurring a net tax cost if the stockholder's repayment of an amount previously distributed does not cause a commensurate reduction in taxes payable. Although Be intends to exercise caution in setting up its contingency reserve and making distributions to stockholders, there can be no assurance that the contingency reserve established by Be will be adequate to cover its expenses and liabilities. F-7 BE INCORPORATED Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) Property and equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally three years. Upon disposal, the cost of the asset and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations. Depreciation expense for 2001, 2000, and 1999 was $266,000, $347,000 and $287,000, respectively. Accounting for Long-Lived Assets The Company reviews its property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount these assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability is measured by comparison of its carrying amount to future net cash flows the assets are expected to generate. 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 projected discounted future cash flows arising from the asset. At each balance sheet date, the unamortized cost of purchased software is compared to the net realizable value of the related software product. The amount by which the unamortized cost exceeds the net realizable value of the software is charged to operations. The net realizable value of the software product is determined by estimating future gross revenues and reduced by the estimated future costs of selling the product. Income taxes The Company accounts for its income taxes in accordance with the liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. Advertising costs Advertising costs, included in sales and marketing expenses, are expensed as incurred and were nil, $73,000 and $154,000 in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Research and development costs Costs incurred in the research and development of new software products are expensed as incurred, including minimum payments made and due to third parties for technology incorporated into the Company's product, until technological feasibility is established. Development costs are capitalized beginning when a product's technological feasibility has been established and ending when the product is available for general release to customers. Products and enhancements generally reached technological feasibility and were released for sale at substantially the same time. F-8 BE INCORPORATED Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) Revenue recognition In 2001, the Company's revenue was primarily derived from BeIA integration services and revenue-related consulting services, the latter being performed under a funding agreement that was entered into on August 16, 2001 in connection with the sale of substantially all of the Company's assets to Palm. In the second half of 2000, the Company's revenue was primarily derived from royalties on sales of BeOS by third-party publishers. In prior periods, revenue was generated from licensing fees on sales to end-users either by direct-order on the Company's web site or sales by distributors. The Company recognized product revenues from orders on the Company's web site upon shipment, provided a credit card authorization was received, the fee was fixed and determinable, collection of resulting receivables was probable and product returns were reasonably estimable. The Company used a standard shrink wrap license for all of its sales. Under the license, the Company was obligated to provide limited telephone support to end users who purchase the Company's product and provided a 5-day money back guarantee. The Company accrued the costs of providing telephone support upon shipment of the product based on the historical cost of providing such support to its customers. In addition, upon shipment of its product, the Company recorded an allowance for estimated sales returns. Product revenues for sales to its distributors were recognized upon sell through to an end user provided a signed contract existed, the fee was fixed and determinable and collection was probable. The Company recognized revenue from these distributors upon sale by the distributors to an end user because the Company did not have sufficient experience with the distributors to reasonably estimate returns. During 1999, under certain circumstances, the Company offered an upgrade to its product in conjunction with product sales at no additional charge. Generally, such rights were offered prior to new versions being released and gave the customers who purchase products between established dates the right to such an upgrade. Revenue was allocated to an upgrade right based on the price for upgrades when sold separately. The Company recognized upgrade revenue when the criteria for product revenue recognition from end users set forth above are met. At December 31, 2001, deferred revenue consisted primarily of sales transaction for which collection was uncertain. At December 31, 2000, deferred revenue consisted primarily of prepaid royalties for BeIA. At December 31, 1999, deferred revenue consisted of revenue related to distributor sales not sold through to end users. In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 10, or SAB 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements," which provides guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue in financial statements filed with the SEC. SAB 101 outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for disclosures related to revenue recognition policies. The Company adopted SAB 101 in the fourth quarter of 2000. The adoption of SAB 101 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. Stock-based compensation The Company accounts for stock based employee compensation arrangements in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, or APB 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" as interpreted by FIN 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions involving Stock Compensation, No. 25"and Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation ("FIN") No.28, "Accounting for Stock Appreciation Rights and Other Variable Stock Option or Award Plans," and complies with the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, or SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." Under APB 25, compensation expense is based on the difference, if any, on the date of grant, between the estimated fair value of the Company's common stock and the exercise price. SFAS 123 defines a "fair value" based method of accounting for an employee stock option or similar equity investment. The pro forma disclosures of the difference between the compensation expense included in net loss and the related cost measured by the fair value method are presented in Note 7. The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to nonemployees in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123 and Emerging Issues Task Force 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services." F-9 BE INCORPORATED Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) Comprehensive income (loss) Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. The differences between net loss and comprehensive loss are shown in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations. Net loss per common share Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of vested common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares, including options, warrants and preferred stock. Options, warrants and preferred stock were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per common share in 2001, 2000 and 1999 because the effect would be antidilutive. A reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per common share follows (in thousands, except per share data): 2001 2000 1999 ------ ------ ------ Net loss per common share, basic and diluted: Net loss ........................................ $ (6,342) $(21,152) $(24,506) Accretion of mandatorily redeemable convertible preferred stock .............................. -- -- (292) ------ ------ ------ Numerator for net loss per common share, basic and diluted ...........

FAS 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. FAS 141 also specifies the criteria applicable to intangible assets acquired in a purchase method business combination to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill. FAS 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead be tested for impairment, upon initial adoption of the standard and then annually. FAS 142 also requires that intangible assets with definite useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and be reviewed for impairment. In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143 Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. SFAS No. 143 requires, among other things, retirement obligations to be recognized when they are incurred and displayed as liabilities, with a corresponding amount capitalized as part of the related long-lived asset. The capitalized element must be expensed over its useful life using a systematic and rational method. The adoption of SFAS No. 143 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144 Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which is required to be applied starting with fiscal years beginning after December 12, 2001. SFAS No. 144 requires, among other things, the application of one accounting model for long-lived assets that are impaired or to be disposed of by sale. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with current year financial statement presentation. F-11 BE INCORPORATED Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) NOTE 3--DISPOSALS: Asset Sale to Palm On August 16, 2001, the Board of Directors of the Company unanimously adopted resolutions approving the sale of substantially all of the Company's intellectual property and other technology assets to ECA Subsidiary Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Palm, Inc., pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement dated August 16, 2001. On October 9, 2001, the Company filed a definitive proxy statement soliciting stockholder approval for the Asset Sale and the dissolution of the Company pursuant to a plan of dissolution (the "Plan of Dissolution"). The Plan of Dissolution provides for the orderly liquidation of Be's remaining assets, the winding-up of Be's business and operations and the dissolution of the Company. In accordance with the terms of the Plan of Dissolution, Be will pay, or provide for the payment of, all of its liabilities and obligations following the approval of the Board to proceed with the liquidation and dissolution of the Company. If there are any remaining assets after the payment, or the provision for payment, of all of its liabilities and obligations, Be will then distribute such assets to its stockholders in one or more distributions. At a special meeting of stockholders held on November 12, 2001, the stockholders of Be approved the Asset Sale and the Plan of Dissolution. The Asset Sale was completed on November 13, 2001. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Be received an aggregate of 4,104,478 shares of Palm common stock valued at approximately $11,000,000 on the closing date of the transaction. The gain on the asset sale to Palm is as follows (in thousands): Total gross proceeds.............................................. $11,000 ======= Severance agreements and bonuses.................................. 3,100 Bankers' fees..................................................... 1,250 Broker's fees..................................................... 900 Legal and accounting fees......................................... 534 Non-cash expense related to stock bonuses........................ 202 Other expenses.................................................... 131 --- Net gain on asset sale............................................ $4,883 ====== As part of its employee recruiting and retention plan, Be had a policy of entering into change of control agreements with certain employees considered to be critical to effectuating a transaction such as the Asset Sale with Palm. Several senior executive officers and key employees of the Company were parties to these change of control agreements at the time of the closing of the Asset Sale. Pursuant to the terms of the agreements, these executive officers and key employees were paid a lump sum severance payment equal to twelve months base salary as well as the continuation of certain health insurance benefits. In addition, in order to further assure the dedication and continued efforts of Be's executives through the critical transition period up to the closing of the Asset Sale, the Board of Directors of the Company approved grants of shares of common stock of Be in the form of stock bonuses to certain employees, including some executive officers, still employed with Be at the closing of the Asset Sale or who may be terminated by the Company without cause after July 30, 2001. In addition to these stock bonuses, the Board approved an aggregate of $867,000 in incentive cash bonuses to certain designated employees, including certain executive officers, for continuing to provide services to Be through the transition period, and to assist the Company in fulfilling a condition to the closing of the Asset Sale that specified that certain employees of Be, and a specified percentage of Be's remaining employee workforce, remain employees of the Company and accept employment with Palm as of the closing. The aggregate charge against the net gain on the Asset Sale related to severance agreements and bonuses for certain of the Company's executive officers and key employees (including non-cash expenses) was approximately $3.3 million. Service fees related to banker, broker, legal and accounting fees accounted for approximately $2.7 million in additional charges. Other miscellaneous expenses related to the transaction accounted for approximately $131,000.

During 2001, 2000 and 1999, costs capitalized under these agreements were nil, $100,000 and $809,000, respectively. F-14 BE INCORPORATED Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) NOTE 5--DISSOLUTION OF THE COMPANY: On March 15, 2002, the Company filed a certificate of dissolution with the Delaware Secretary of State in accordance with the plan of dissolution approved by stockholders on November 12, 2001 and as set forth in the Definitive Proxy Statement filed on October 9, 2001. Following such filing, the Company adopted liquidation accounting. Set forth below is the Company's pro forma balance sheet as of December 31, 2001, as if the certificate had been filed on that date. Under liquidation accounting, all assets and liabilities are stated at realizable value unlike under going concern accounting where assets and liabilities are stated at historical value.

F-15 BE INCORPORATED Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) NOTE 6--COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES: Lease commitments The Company leased its facilities under non cancelable operating leases that expired in February 2002. In February 2002, the company entered into a renewable 6 month lease for a small office with a monthly lease payment of approximately $1,300 per month. Future annual minimum lease payments as of December 31, 2001 are as follows (in thousands): 2002.......................................................... $ 200 Thereafter.................................................. - ------ $ 200 ------ Total rent expense was $1,262,000, $1,308,000 and $1,168,000 for 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. In addition, the Company has entered into several technology licensing agreements which include non cancelable payments. These payments have been recorded at the net present value using a discount rate of 10% per annum. The future minimum payments under these agreement are as follows: 2002 $ 840 ---- 840 Less discount...................................................... (25) --- 815 Less current portion............................................... - ----- $ 815 ===== Contingencies Stockholder lawsuit As previously disclosed in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in November 2000, the Company's stock transfer agent, Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, N.A., received a demand letter from Financial Square Partners, a Be stockholder, alleging damages resulting from the transfer agent's failure to timely issue its stock certificates. While Be was not named as a party in such demand letter, Be was named as a party on the stockholder's draft claim attached to the demand letter. On May 9, 2001, the claim was in fact filed, naming Be and Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, N.A. as defendants, and is currently active in the Superior Court of California. A settlement conference occurred in April 2002 and negotiations are ongoing. A trial, if required, is scheduled for June. Financial Square Partners is seeking damages in the amount of approximately $2.4 million. Prior to this filing, the Company had been participating in communications with the parties involved in an effort to resolve the matter prior to a lawsuit being filed. Be management continues to believe that the allegations as they relate to Be in the filed claim are without merit and intends to defend Be against this legal action. However, there can be no assurance this claim will be resolved without costly litigation, or require Be's participation in the settlement of such claim, in a manner that is not adverse to our 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 this contingency. If Be were held liable, it is our intent to seek reimbursement under our D&O insurance policy. Antitrust lawsuit On February 15, 2002, Be engaged Susman Godfrey LLP on a contingency basis to bring forth claims against Microsoft Corporation for the destruction of Be's business resulting from anticompetitive business practices. On February 19, 2002, the Company filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court in San Francisco alleging, among other things, Microsoft harmed Be through a series of illegal, exclusionary and anticompetitive acts designed to maintain its monopoly in the Intel-compatible PC operating system market and created exclusive dealing arrangements with PC OEMs prohibiting the sale of PCs with multiple preinstalled operating systems. Be is seeking recovery of an unspecified amount of damages for the benefit of the Company and its stockholders. F-16 BE INCORPORATED Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) NOTE 7--STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY: Initial Public Offering In July 1999, the Company completed its initial public offering and sold 6,000,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $6.00 per share. The Company received approximately $32.2 million in cash, net of underwriting discounts, commissions and other offering expenses. Simultaneously with the closing of the initial public offering, the Company's mandatorily redeemable convertible preferred stock outstanding at December 31, 1998 automatically converted into 22,498,874 shares of common stock. In August 1999, the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option and the Company sold an additional 557,465 shares of its common stock at a price of $6.00 per share, thereby raising proceeds of approximately $3.1 million, net of underwriting discounts. Prior to the Company's voluntary delisting on March 15, 2002, the Company's shares were traded on the Nasdaq national market system under the symbol "BEOS". The Company's shares now trade on the over-the-counter market under the symbol "BEOSZ". Mandatorily Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock On closing of the Company's initial public offering in July 1999, the Company's mandatorily redeemable preferred stock automatically converted into 22,498,874 shares of common stock (see above). Changes in the mandatorily redeemable convertible preferred stock during 1999 were as follows (in thousands): Amount Balance, January 1, 1999.................................. $ 38,005 Accretion to redemption value........................ 292 Conversion to common stock...........................

The May and December 1998 warrants were issued for investment banker fees related to the issuance of the Series 2 preferred stock. F-18 BE INCORPORATED Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 1992 Stock Option Plan In 1992 the Company adopted a stock option plan (the "1992 Plan") under which 5,000 shares of the Company's common stock had been reserved for issuance of stock options to employees, directors, or consultants under terms and provisions established by the board of directors. In 1997 and 1998, the Company reserved an additional 5,995,000 shares and 2,000,000 shares, respectively, for issuance under the 1992 Plan. Options granted under the 1992 Plan are immediately exercisable; however, shares exercised under the 1992 Plan are subject to the Company's right of repurchase at the end of the holder's association with the Company. The Company's right of repurchase generally lapses as to 20% of the shares one year from the date of grant and (1)/60th each month thereafter or as to 25% of the shares one year from the date of grant and (1)/48th each month thereafter. The options expire ten years from the date of grant. On March 30, 1999, the board of directors terminated the 1992 Plan. 1999 Equity Incentive Plan On March 30, 1999 the Company adopted the Equity Incentive Plan (the "1999 Plan") under which a total of up to 8,000,000 shares of common stock were initially reserved for issuance. This number of shares initially reserved was reduced by the 1,943,347 shares reserved for issuance under options then outstanding under the 1992 Plan. If any of these 1,943,347 options are cancelled, the number of shares reserved under the 1999 Plan will be increased by the number of such cancellations. In addition, at the end of each year an additional number of shares will automatically be added to the number of shares already reserved for issuance under the 1999 Plan. This additional number of shares will be not more than the lesser of 5% of the number of shares of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock as of year end or the number equal to 8% of the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding at year end less the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 1999 Plan but not subject to outstanding awards. The 1999 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock purchase rights and stock bonuses to employees, consultants and directors. Incentive stock options may be granted only to employees. The exercise price of incentive stock options granted under the 1999 Plan must be at least equal to the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. The exercise price of non-qualified stock options is set by the administrator of the 1999 Plan, but can be no less than 85% of the fair market value. The maximum term of options granted under the 1999 Plan is ten years. Options granted under the terms of the 1999 Plan become exercisable as to 25% of the shares awarded after one year and (1)/48th of the award monthly thereafter.

Each initial grant under the Directors' Plan will vest at 1/4th of the shares subject to the option one year after the date of grant and (1)/48th of the shares each month thereafter. The rate of vesting of each subsequent grant will be (1)/48th of the shares on a monthly schedule after the date of grant. The board may amend (subject to stockholder approval as necessary) or terminate the Directors' Plan at any time. Due to the cessation of the Company's business operations, the Company no longer expects to grant stock options under this plan.

F-21 BE INCORPORATED Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) Options Outstanding The options outstanding and currently exercisable by exercise price at December 31, 2001 are as follows: Options Outstanding Options Exercisable ----------------------------------- ---------------------- Weighted Average Weighted Weighted Remaining Average Average Number Contractual Exercise Number Exercise Exercise Prices Outstanding Life (years) Price Exercisable Price --------------- ----------- ------------ ----- ------------ ----- $0.10-0.35.................................... 641,905 6.83 $0.49 596,342 $0.45 $1.00-4.56.................................... 188,667 8.66 4.17 181,583 $4.22 $5.00-5.75.................................... 1,464,676 7.27 5..06 1,329,116 $5.06 $6.00-9.00.................................... 346,079 8.05 7.26 266,129 $7.22 $12.88-17.88.................................. 565,982 8.09 13.51 396,771 $13.32 ------- ------- 3,207,309 7.49 $5.75 2,769,941 $5.40 ========= ========= Deferred stock compensation In accordance with the requirements of APB 25, the Company has recorded deferred compensation for the difference between the exercise price of the stock options granted before its initial public offering and the fair market value of the Company's stock at the date of grant. This deferred compensation is amortized to expense over the period during which the Company's right to repurchase the stock lapses or the options become exercisable, generally four or five years, using the multiple options method. At December 31, 2001, the Company had recorded deferred compensation related to these options in an amount of $12,591,000 (net of cancellations), of which $(1,996,000), $2,613,000 and $6,233,000 had been amortized to expense during 2001, 2000 and 1999. During 1999, options to purchase 4,173,000 shares of the Company's common stock were granted with exercise prices below the estimated market value at the date of grant; the weighted average exercise prices were $4.98 per share and the deemed weighted average market values of the common stock was $6.81 per share, respectively. During 2000 and 2001, all options were granted with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Value of Options Granted The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using a type of Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions used for grants: 2001 2000 1999 ----- ----- ---- Expected volatility........... 163% 142% 0% and 60% Weighted average risk-free interest rate.............. 4.50% 6.21% 4.80% Expected life................. 2 years 2 years 2 years Expected dividends............ 0% 0% 0% For the period prior to the Company's Initial Public Offering, volatility for the purposes of the SFAS No. 123 calculation was 0%. Based on the above assumptions, the aggregate fair value and weighted average fair value per share of options granted in 2001, 2000 and 1999 were $328,000, $29,359,000 and $13,919,000, and $1.42, $7.24 and $2.77, respectively. F-22 BE INCORPORATED Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) Employee Stock Purchase Plan On May 4, 1999 the Company adopted an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Purchase Plan"). The Company has reserved a total of 1,500,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the Purchase Plan. Under the terms of the Purchase Plan, employees who work at least 20 hours a week and have been employed for at least five months in a calendar year may contribute, during an offering period, a specified percentage, not to exceed 15%, of their compensation to purchase shares of common stock of the Company. Each offering period runs for a period of 24 months and will be divided into consecutive purchase periods of approximately six months. New offering periods commence every six months on August 1st and February 1st each year. The price of the common stock purchased under the Purchase Plan is equal to 85% of the fair market value of the common stock on the first day of the applicable offering period or the last day of the applicable purchase period whichever is lower. No person may purchase shares under the Purchase Plan to the extent that such person would own 5% or more of the total combined value or voting power of all classes of the capital stock of the Company or to the extent that such person's rights to purchase stock under stock purchase plans would accrue at a rate in excess of $25,000 per year. The first purchases under the Purchase Plan occurred in 2000, during which 166,914 shares were issued under the Purchase Plan at a weighted average purchase price of $4.21. In 2001, 343,262 shares were issued under the Purchase Plan at a weighted average purchase price of $1.13. At December 31, 2001, 989,824 shares were reserved for future issuance under the Purchase Plan. Due to the cessation of the Company's business operations, the Company no longer expects any shares of stock to be purchased under the Purchase Plan. Under SFAS No. 123, compensation cost is also recognized for the fair value of employee's purchase rights under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, which was estimated using the following assumptions 2001 2000 1999 ----- ----- ---- Expected volatility.................. 163% 142% 60% Weighted average risk-free interest rate.................... 4.31% 6.18% 4.80% Expected life........................ 6 months 6 months 6 months Expected dividends................... 0% 0% 0% Based on the above assumptions, the aggregate fair value and weighted average fair value per share of those purchase rights granted in 2001, 2000 and 1999 was $43,000, $417,000 and $140,000, and $1.19, $3.45 and $1.94, respectively. . Pro forma stock compensation Had compensation cost been determined based on the fair value at the grant date for the awards made in 1995 and thereafter under the Company's stock option plans and employee stock purchase plan consistent with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, the Company's net loss would have been as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts): 2001 2000 1999 ----- ----- ---- Net loss attributable to common stockholders--as reported......................... $(6,342) $(21,152) $(24,798) Net loss attributable to common stockholders--pro forma........................... $(6,399) $(31,855) $(27,039) Net loss per common share--basic and diluted as reported.......................... $ (0.17) $ (0.60) $ (1.41) Net loss per common share--basic and diluted pro forma............................ $ (0.17) $ (0.90) $ (1.54) Such pro forma disclosures may not be representative of future compensation cost because options vest over several years and additional grants are made each year.

The valuation allowance increased $3.3 million in 2001, $9.4 million in 2000 and $7.9 million in 1999. The principal items accounting for the difference between income taxes benefit at the U.S. statutory rate and the benefit from income taxes reflected in the statement of operations are as follows (in thousands): 2001 2000 1999 ---- ----- ---- Federal benefit at statutory rate.. $ 2,156 $ 7,192 $ 8,332 Nondeductible expenses............. 679 (890) (2,242) Net operating losses and benefits..

The Company also had approximately $47,718,000 of net operating loss carryforwards and $498,000 of research and development credits to offset future state income taxes. Included in the net operating loss carryforwards referred to above, there are approximately $7,181,000 and $3,591,000 of net operating loss carryforwards for federal and state purposes, respectively, as of December 31, 2001, which relate to stock option deductions. The tax benefit of these additional losses will be credited to additional paid in capital if the Company's deferred tax asset is recognized. These carryforwards expire in the years 2005 through 2021 if not utilized. Due to changes in ownership, the Company's net operating loss and credit carryforwards may become subject to certain annual limitations.
