A stockholder returning a proxy may revoke it at any time prior to the voting at the Annual Meeting. A proxy returned by a stockholder which is not subsequently revoked will be voted in accordance with the instructions indicated thereon. If no instructions are indicated on a returned and duly executed proxy, the shares represented by the proxy will be voted FOR the election of the three nominees for director proposed by the Board of Directors and set forth herein, FOR the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the independent public accountants of enherent for 2001, and in accordance with the judgment of the persons named in the proxy as to such other matters as may properly come before the Annual Meeting. Only stockholders of record at the close of business on March 16, 2001 are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of March 16, 2001, our classes of capital stock consisted of common stock and one series of convertible preferred stock outstanding that is entitled to vote on an as-converted basis. The following table indicates, as of March 16, 2001, the number of issued and outstanding shares of each class of capital stock and each class' associated voting power: ISSUED AND AS-CONVERTED OUTSTANDING VOTING POWER ----------- ------------ Common Stock 18,351,311 18,351,311 Series A Senior Participating Preferred Stock 8,000,000 8,000,000 ---------- Total Votes Eligible 26,351,311 A majority of shares of common stock, including, for this purpose, the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Senior Participating Preferred Stock, must be represented at the meeting, in person or represented by proxy, and will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. With the exception of the election of directors, which requires a plurality of the votes cast, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the meeting is required for each item set forth in the Notice of Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the meeting. For the purpose of determining whether a proposal (except for the election of directors) has received a majority vote, abstentions will be included in the vote totals with the result that an abstention will have the same effect as a negative vote. In instances where brokers are prohibited from exercising discretionary authority for beneficial owners who have not returned a proxy (broker non-votes), those shares will not be included in the vote totals and, therefore, will have no effect on the vote. The cost of soliciting proxies will be borne by enherent. In addition to solicitation by mail, employees of enherent, without extra remuneration, may solicit proxies in person or by telephone. Mellon Investor Services, LLC has been retained by enherent to assist in the solicitation of proxies for a fee of $3,500 plus reimbursement of expenses. enherent may also reimburse brokerage firms, nominees, custodians and fiduciaries for their out-of-pocket expenses for forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners and seeking instruction with respect thereto.

Each owner's percentage is calculated by dividing the number of shares owned by that owner plus the number of shares that can be converted by that owner within 60 days by the sum of the number of shares of outstanding common stock, 18,351,311, and the number of shares that owner has the right to acquire/convert within 60 days.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION REPORT OF COMPENSATION COMMITTEE The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Committee"), which is comprised entirely of non-employee directors, is responsible for the establishment and administration of the compensation programs for enherent's executive officers, including the Chief Executive Officer. The Committee met six times in 2000 to address items related to the compensation and benefits of enherent's executive officers. COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY The Committee has adopted a compensation philosophy based on the premise that executives should receive competitive compensation determined by reference to both enherent's performance and the individual's contribution to that performance. Compensation plans and programs are intended by the Committee to motivate and reward executives for long-term strategic management and the enhancement of stockholder value, support a performance-oriented environment that rewards achievement of internal business goals, and attract and retain executives whose abilities are critical to the long-term success and competitiveness of enherent. enherent's programs are designed to provide executives with a competitive earnings opportunity, with earnings linked to the short-term and long-term performance of enherent. The Committee has developed executive compensation principles to provide guidance in the design and operation of the senior management compensation plans and in the review of executive performance. enherent's executive compensation program consists of three key elements: (a) base salary; (b) short-term incentives, i.e., annual bonus; and (c) long-term incentives, i.e., stock options. COMPETITIVENESS. Total compensation for senior managers is targeted to produce pay consistent with enherent's performance compared against a group of direct competitors and selected major corporations of comparable size and scope of operations. PERFORMANCE CONTINGENCY. The design of the total compensation package reflects a bias toward variable pay that matches pay to the achievement of short-term and long-term performance objectives. For the named officers and senior executives, the variable portion of the pay program ranges from 50% -100% of total target pay. The Committee based Mr. Woodward's compensation on the Company's need to recruit and retain an experienced executive with a proven record of success in the information technology services industry. Accordingly, the Committee offered Mr. Woodward a substantial sign-on bonus and a 10 competitive annual compensation package. In order to properly incent Mr. Woodward to increase shareholder value, the Committee granted Mr. Woodward a substantial number of stock options. ACCOUNTABILITY TO STAKEHOLDERS. Performance measures used in enherent's incentive programs support value creation for our three key stakeholders: shareholders, customers and employees. Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code generally limits the deductibility of compensation to the Chief Executive Officer and the four other most highly compensated officers in excess of $1 million per year, provided, however, that certain "performance-based" compensation may be excluded from such $1 million limitation. While neither the Chief Executive Officer nor the four other most highly compensated officers of the Company earned in excess of $1 million in fiscal year 2000, the Committee intends to structure future annual cash bonus awards and stock option grants under the Stock Option Plan in a manner designed to make such awards "performance-based" compensation to the extent practicable. COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION The Compensation Committee is composed of Douglas K. Mellinger, Jack L. Rivkin and Irwin J. Sitkin, none of whom are employees or current officers of enherent. Mr. Mellinger was CEO of enherent until June 1999. Mr. Rivkin and Mr. Sitkin are not former officers of enherent.

EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS, TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT AND CHANGE-IN-CONTROL ARRANGEMENTS The Company entered into an employment agreement with Dan S. Woodward ("Woodward Agreement"). The Woodward Agreement has a term of three years commencing on May 17, 1999. Under the agreement Mr. Woodward shall serve as President and Chief Executive Officer, earning a base salary of $318,000, with a target bonus opportunity of 100% of the base salary under the annual incentive award plan determined by the Compensation Committee.

If Mr. Mullinax' employment is terminated, without cause (as defined in the Employment Agreement) during the term, then he will be entitled to receive one (1) year salary continuation of base salary and any performance bonus pro-rated to the date of termination. In addition, all his options will vest upon a termination without cause. Under the terms of the Employment Agreement, Mr. Mullinax participates in a performance-based incentive compensation program developed by the Compensation Committee, with performance goals based on, among other factors, the financial growth of enherent, and on a basis no less favorable than the program provides for other executives. Mr. Michaelson's date of termination from the Company was June 30, 2000. Under the terms of his employment agreement, the Company agreed to continue payment of his salary in effect at the time of his resignation from the Company for a period of 12 months, and he is entitled during the salary continuation period to participate in the Company's 401(k) plan.

Mullinax Secretary April 4, 2001 17 "ANNEX A" PRT GROUP AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER ORGANIZATION This charter governs the operation of the audit committee. The committee shall review and reassess the charter at least annually and obtain the approval of the board of directors. The committee shall be appointed by the board of directors and shall comprise at least three directors, each of whom are independent of management and the Company. Members of the committee shall be considered independent if they have no relationship that may interfere with the exercise of their independence from management and the Company. All committee members shall be financially literate and at least one member shall have accounting or related financial management expertise. STATEMENT OF POLICY The audit committee shall provide assistance to the board of directors in fulfilling their oversight responsibility to the shareholders, potential shareholders, the investment community, and others relating to the Company's financial statements and the financial reporting process, the systems of internal accounting and financial controls, the internal audit function, the annual independent audit of the Company's financial statements, and the legal compliance and ethics programs as established by management and the board. In so doing, it is the responsibility of the committee to maintain free and open communication between the committee, independent auditors, the internal auditors and management of the Company. In discharging its oversight role, the committee is empowered to investigate any matter brought to its attention with full access to all books, records, facilities, and personnel of the Company and the power to retain outside counsel, or other experts for this purpose. RESPONSIBILITIES AND PROCESSES The primary responsibility of the audit committee is to oversee the Company's financial reporting process on behalf of the board and report the results of their activities to the board. Management is responsible for preparing the Company's financial statements, and the independent auditors are responsible for auditing those financial statements. The committee in carrying out its responsibilities believes its policies and procedures should remain flexible, in order to best react to changing conditions and circumstances. The committee should take the appropriate actions to set the overall corporate "tone" for quality financial reporting, sound business risk practices, and ethical behavior. INTERNAL AUDITOR The audit committee will be involved in reviewing and evaluating assignments for the internal auditor to perform on a quarterly basis, including, but not limited to, financial reviews, compliance with SEC and Nasdaq requirements, company's policies and procedures, officers compensation and benefits, contracts and any other matter deemed necessary by the board. The internal audit function will report directly to the audit committee and indirectly to the CEO. The internal auditor will report quarterly to the audit committee on their findings and provide recommendations with agreement from management. Any fraud or misuse of company's assets will automatically be brought to management and audit committee attention immediately. The following shall be the principal processes of the audit committee in carrying out its oversight responsibilities. o The committee shall have a clear understanding with management and the independent auditors that the independent auditors are ultimately accountable to the board and the audit committee, as representatives of 1 the Company's shareholders. The committee shall have the ultimate authority and responsibility to evaluate and, where appropriate, replace the independent auditors. The committee shall discuss with the auditors their independence from management and the Company and the matters included in the written disclosures required by the Independence Standards Board. Annually, the committee shall review and recommend to the board the selection of the Company's independent auditors, subject to shareholders' approval. o The committee shall discuss with the internal auditors and the independent auditors the overall scope and plans for their respective audits including the adequacy of staffing and compensation. Also, the committee shall discuss with management, the internal auditors, and the independent auditors the adequacy and effectiveness of the accounting and financial controls, including the Company's system to monitor and manage business risk, and legal and ethical compliance programs. Further, the committee shall meet separately with the internal auditors and the independent auditors, with and without management present, to discuss the results of their examinations. o The committee shall review the interim financial statements with management and the independent auditors prior to the filing of the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Also, the committee shall discuss the results of the quarterly review and any other matters required to be communicated to the committee by the independent auditors under generally accepted auditing standards. The chair of the committee may represent the entire committee for the purposes of this review. o The committee shall review with management and the independent auditors the financial statements to be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K (or the annual report to shareholders if distributed prior to the filing of Form 10-K), including their judgment about the quality, not just acceptability, of accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments, and the clarity of the disclosures in the financial statements. Also, the committee shall discuss the results of the annual audit and any other matters required to be communicated to the committee by the independent auditors under generally accepted auditing standards. -
