BUSINESS We are a leading provider of end-to-end financial transaction processing software solutions for financial institutions (FIs). These solutions are grouped into three broad categories: payment processing, foreign exchange settlement processing, and delivery channels for FI cash management products. These solutions enable banks to process and manage payments, foreign exchange settlements and cash management communication between FIs and their customers. The solutions facilitate communication between FIs and their customers for initiating payments, making inquiries and managing their activities with the FI. Our client/server web-enabled software products automate the payment and settlement processes and provide real-time transaction processing capabilities to FIs and their customers. We were incorporated in Israel in 1993. We acquired our ACCESS Banking(TM) products in April 1998, BBP, our Swiss subsidiary, in June 1999, and our Banker products in September 1999. Our major products include ACCESS Banking(TM), ACCESS.pro(TM), PAYplus USA(TM), PAYplus RTGS(TM), PAYplus for CLS(TM), Global PAYplus(TM), WireUp(TM) and service bureau solutions, and related services and third-party hardware sales. INDUSTRY BACKGROUND The increasing integration of global economies as well as the widespread adoption of new banking technologies has led to dramatic increases in both the number of transactions consummated through electronic payment systems and the need for timely delivery of financial information. As a result, financial institutions are seeking more efficient methods of offering payment, settlement and cash management services. The following trends continue to drive demand for our products and services in this dynamic market environment: an increasing need for centralized payment and treasury functions; global adoption of real-time gross settlement (RTGS); migration to Internet-based solutions; growth in electronic commerce; consolidation in the financial services industry; and, increased regulatory requirements imposed on banks. We believe that several market trends and the current environment are favorable to our products and services. Specifically, we will focus on the following trends and market conditions: o continued expansion of Internet activities as they relate to financial transactions; o new and expanded regulatory requirements on banks especially in the areas of interdiction and anti-money laundering purposes; o greater emphasis on risk mitigation in such areas as liquidity management and contingency and recovery capabilities; o a shift on the part of financial institutions to use out-sourcing, application service providers and "white-labeling" in lieu of developing and managing their own information technology activities; and o continued spread of globalization that will require new tools for banks to manage 24-hour trading and settlement, real-time information demands and straight-through processing. PRODUCTS AND SERVICES Our products and related services are designed to integrate all elements of the electronic payments cycle, including electronic funds transfer, and cash and treasury management. We believe that our products are among the most technologically advanced and cost-effective solutions in the electronic payments and banking industry. Our products facilitate all aspects of the electronic payments and banking cycle including payment initiation, electronic balance reporting, account reconciliation, real-time account balance verification, and other sophisticated auditing and reporting functionality. In addition, our products offer exceptional graphical user interfaces, enabling our customers to easily receive accurate and focused information concerning the status of electronic payment transactions and other cash management data. Our end-to-end solutions provide for remote initiation of transactions, efficient and automated processing of these transactions, and settlement of the transactions at the central bank of the country of origin. We are one of the largest providers of services linking the banks to networks, such as the Federal Reserve System in the U.S. which has approximately 7,500 banks on their FedLine system. On a global basis, we provide banks with the capability to link to the Society for Worldwide Financial Interbank Telecommunications (SWIFT) network for communicating cross-border transactions. SWIFT has approximately 6800 banks in 189 countries. In addition to providing payment services, we are also a leading provider of 2 settlement solutions that link banks to the Continuous Linked Settlement System (CLS).

At the same time, it both reduces payments risk (through real-time updates of account balances by means of an on-line interface with the host computer) and improves customer service (through its comprehensive database containing relevant information about a transfer - from its creation to accounting and memo posting). PAYPLUS RTGS PAYplus RTGS(TM) is a client/server electronic funds transfer solution that is used by financial institutions to both process payment transactions and to settle with central bank real-time gross settlement and net settlement systems.

INTERBANK GATEWAY SERVICES Interbank Gateway Services is a set of electronic payments and securities application services provided by our service bureau in Switzerland. The Interbank Gateway Services provides a secure and reliable technology infrastructure, which enables financial institutions to initiate, process and support electronic payment transactions across a wide range of settlement systems. The service bureau's customers are currently predominantly Swiss banks, but we intend to expand this offering into other areas of the world.

WireUp(TM) offering supports all of our U.S.-based product groups and we have centers in Jersey City, New Jersey, San Leandro, California and Norcross, Georgia. CUSTOMERS AND MARKETS Our scaleable products are sold to a wide array of financial institutions and large business enterprises. The markets for our products consist of the following end-users: o U.S. Banks - This group of customers is divided into three tiers. The top tier consists of approximately 100 banks, each with more than $10 billion of assets. The second tier consists of approximately 3,500 banks, each with over $100 million in assets. The third tier consists of approximately 5,500 small banks, each with less than $100 million of assets. o Agency Banks and Branches of Foreign Banks Located in the United States - These banks are located mainly in financial centers such as New York City, San Francisco, Los Angeles and Dallas. o Banks located Outside of the U.S. in countries that have moved or will move into processing payments on a real time gross settlement basis. o Large Business Enterprises - These enterprises consist of: (1) financial institutions which provide regular treasury management services to large corporations; (2) large non-bank financial institutions, primarily brokerage houses, bond dealers, and insurance firms, which need to conduct their own internal treasury management and risk management activities; and (3) Fortune 500 companies with significant multinational operations which require a real-time view of their cash position. During the year 2000 and 2001, we pursued a strategy of penetrating the top tier of global banks with our PAYplus for CLS(TM) product offering. The major foreign exchange trading banks worldwide, as well as central banks and regulators are supporting the creation of the CLS, a global system for providing FX settlement services. CLS is intended to handle FX trades with a daily value of approximately three trillion U.S. dollars. We have been successful in obtaining the majority of the CLS contracts awarded to date from banks including, inter alia, Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Ltd., Bank of America, Bank of New York, Citibank, Commerzbank, Deutsche Bank, Dresdner Bank, and National Australia Bank. We believe that this significant step forward will help us leverage our technology and offer those banks additional products in the future such as the Citibank Global Payplus agreement. In 2001, we entered into an agreement with a leading international financial institution whereby we agreed to license certain of our products, including PAYplus for CLS(TM) and Global PAYplus(TM), and perform various consulting and maintenance services in connection with the license of such products. For the year ended December 31, 2001, the aggregate total revenue derived from the license of these products, and the fees earned in connection with the consulting and maintenance services was approximately $7,800,000, which represents approximately 17.7% of our 2001 revenues. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Major Customer." SALES AND MARKETING We sell our products and services primarily through our direct sales force. In the past we have relied more heavily on referrals from partners. Many of our partners have changed their market focus and/or become our direct competitors. In response to this and other factors, we have grown our sales force to support our direct sales efforts. We have a dedicated sales staff in the U.S., United Kingdom, Switzerland, Singapore and Australia. 6 We are an active participant in various trade shows and conferences where we promote our products. In addition, we receive inquiries about our products directly through our corporate website. We maintain a good relationship with the Federal Reserve Bank in the USA to ensure that our products meet Federal Reserve requirements. We also maintain a good working relationship with SWIFT, a utility for communication of global FI payment and settlement instructions owned by the largest banks in the world. By ensuring that our solutions are SWIFT-compliant, we are well positioned to offer payment and settlement solutions to international banks. SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT We believe that our software development team provides a significant competitive advantage. The team is comprised of developers with experience in visual programming design and object-oriented software development of mission-critical applications. We also believe that this assembly of diverse technical expertise contributes to the highly integrated functionality of our products. Our ability to attract and retain highly qualified employees will be one of the principal determinants of our success in maintaining technological leadership. The total software development staff consisted of 173 full-time employees on December 31, 2001. All of our products have been developed internally by our product development staff. Some of these products embed, or are bundled with, standardized software products developed by other companies. We believe significant investments in product development are required to remain competitive. To ensure that our products are developed successfully, within their budgets and according to schedule, all of our products are sent through the following four distinct design and testing stages: (1) specifications are developed through consultation with prospective users to ensure that the product matches the user's requirements; (2) an internal quality assurance team verifies the integrity of the product at each stage of development prior to beta testing; (3) beta testing data is used to evaluate the functionality of the products and their ability to perform under realistic conditions; and (4) a controlled group of users is polled regularly to identify any modifications that may be necessary. In addition, we work closely with current and potential end-users, our strategic partners and leaders in certain industry segments to identify market needs and define appropriate product specifications. Our employees also participate in numerous user focus groups to review product design. We have software development sites in Georgia, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Israel, and Switzerland. We believe that separating development by geographic region allows for both development to be in close proximity to the targeted market and increases our opportunity to attract development talent. CUSTOMER SUPPORT AND MAINTENANCE We believe that effective customer support and maintenance in the software industry requires rapid, efficient and comprehensive installation of the product. Upon installation, we strive to provide superior customer support by solving problems quickly and providing customers with consistent, accurate and understandable technical information. We employ test scripts and bank production data to test our solutions and our products are shipped with back-up procedures installed. We recognize that timely solutions are essential for our mission-critical solutions in the event problems do arise. We emphasize responsiveness to our customers' inquiries and offer telephonic support twenty-four hours a day. Customer inquiries range from production problems to user questions and hardware issues. In addition, we utilize Remote Access Services (RAS-Windows NT service) to enhance remote customer support. Certain of our distributors also provide sales, service and technical support functions for our products to end-users in the distributors' respective territories. COMPETITION We believe that the principal competitive factors in the industry in which we operate are product performance, open industry standard architecture scalability, technical features, compatibility with multiple existing operating systems, reliability, security, relational database powers, price, customer service and support, and ease of use. We also believe that our products and related services are competitive with respect to these factors. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to differentiate our products from the products of our competitors or that we can successfully develop or introduce successfully new products that are less costly than, or superior to, those of our competitors. In addition, existing and new competitors may have established relationships with our existing and potential customers, which could have a material adverse effect on our ability to compete. The industry in which we operate is highly competitive and evolving. Furthermore, certain large banks have developed solutions internally which they are marketing to other banks and/or implementing in banks that they have acquired. Many of our existing and potential competitors have, or are likely to have, more extensive engineering, development, marketing, distribution (particularly with respect to direct sales forces), financial, technological and personnel resources than us. 7 Increased competition could materially adversely affect our revenues and profitability through loss of market share, pricing pressures and other factors, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. PROPRIETARY RIGHTS Our competitive position depends heavily on our technological advantages. Accordingly, we use a combination of technical measures, contractual rights, non-disclosure agreements, trade secret statutes and precedents, copyrights and trademarks to establish and protect the proprietary rights in our products and technologies. We have no registered patents or pending patent applications. Although we generally enter into non-disclosure and confidentiality agreements with our employees, customers and distributors who have access to sensitive information, there can be no assurance that these agreements will not be breached, that the courts will enforce the restrictive provisions of these agreements, or that such enforcement would provide adequate remedies for any such breach. The courts may not regard any particular technology as being a "trade secret" under applicable law. There can be no assurance that the steps we take to protect our proprietary rights will be adequate to prevent others from gaining access to or misappropriating our technology, or independently developing or acquiring for sale products or services with technologies and features similar to ours. The loss of proprietary rights or trade secret protection, or the independent development or acquisition of such products could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Although we believe that our technology has been independently developed and that none of our technology or intellectual property infringes on the rights of others, there can be no assurance that we do not and will not infringe on others' rights, or that third parties will not assert infringement claims against us in the future. If such infringement were found to exist, we may be required to modify our products and/or technologies, or obtain a license permitting their continued use. In such circumstances, there can be no assurance that we will be able to do either in a timely manner or upon acceptable terms and conditions, and any failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, if future litigation were to become necessary to protect trade secrets, know-how or other proprietary rights, the defense against claimed infringement of the rights of others, or the determination of the scope and validity of the proprietary rights of others could result in substantial costs. Adverse determinations in any litigation or proceeding could subject us to significant liabilities to third parties, preventing us from producing, selling or using certain of our products or technologies, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. There can be no assurance that we will have the resources to defend or prosecute a proprietary rights infringement or other action. In addition, the laws of certain countries may not protect our contractual rights, trade secrets, copyrights, technical measures, non-disclosure agreements, trademarks, products, processes or technologies to the same extent as in the U.S. GOVERNMENT REGULATION Our current and prospective customers, which include financial institutions such as state and federally chartered banks, savings and loan associations, as well as customers in other industries that we may target in the future, operate in markets that are subject to extensive and complex regulation. While we are not directly subject to such regulation, except in connection with the operation of our Swiss service bureau, our products and services must be designed to work within the extensive and evolving regulatory constraints under which our customers operate. The failure of our products and services to support customers' compliance with current regulations, to address changes in customers' respective regulatory environments or to adapt to such changes in an efficient and cost-effective manner could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. EMPLOYEES As of December 31, 2001, we had 363 employees, of which 239 were located in the United States, 50 were located in Israel, 46 were located in Switzerland, 21 were located in the United Kingdom, 5 were located in Australia and 2 were located in Singapore. Of the 239 employees located in the United States, 130 were employed in software development, 60 were employed in operations, 19 were employed in sales and marketing and 30 were employed in administration. Of the 50 employees in Israel, 28 were employed in software development, 15 were employed in operations, 1 was employed in sales and marketing and 6 were employed in administration. Of the 46 employees in Switzerland, 15 were employed in software development, 14 were employed in operations, 6 were employed in sales and marketing and 11 were employed in administration. Of the 21 employees in the United Kingdom, 14 were employed in operations, 5 were employed in sales and marketing and 2 were employed in administration. Of the 5 employees in Australia, 4 were employed in operations and 1 was employed in sales and marketing. Of the 2 employees in Singapore, 1 was employed in sales and marketing and 1 was employed in operations. 8 We consider ourselves to have good relations with our employees and have never experienced a labor dispute, strike or work stoppage. Our employees are not represented by a labor union. None of our employees are a party to a collective bargaining agreement with us. However, we are subject to certain provisions of collective bargaining agreements among the Government of Israel, the Histadrut (General Federation of Labor in Israel) and the Coordinating Bureau of Economic Organizations (including the Industrialists' Association) that are applicable to our Israeli employees by virtue of expansion orders of the Israeli Ministry of Labor and Welfare. In addition, Israeli labor laws are applicable to all of our employees in Israel. Those provisions and laws principally concern the length of the workday, minimum daily wages for workers, procedures for dismissing employees, determination of severance pay and other conditions of employment. As a general practice, although not legally required, we contribute funds on behalf of most of our full-time employees in Israel to an individual insurance policy known as "Managers' Insurance." This policy provides a combination of savings plan, insurance and severance pay benefits to the insured employee, provides for payments to the employee upon retirement or death, and secures severance pay, if any, to which the employee is legally entitled upon termination of employment. The remaining part of this obligation is presented on our balance sheet as a provision for severance pay. See Note 2(m) to the Consolidated Financial Statements. All Israeli employers are required to provide certain increases in wages as partial compensation for increases in the CPI. The specific formula for such increases varies according to agreements reached among the Government of Israel, the Manufacturers' Association and the Histadrut. Israeli employees and employers also are required to pay pre-determined sums (which include a contribution to national health insurance) to the Israel National Insurance Institute, which provides a range of social security benefits.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES We do not own any real property. As of December 31, 2001, we leased an aggregate of approximately 13,000, 17,000, 15,000, 15,000, 6,700 and 26,000 square feet of office space in Ramat Gan, Israel, Burlington, Massachusetts, Jersey City, New Jersey, Carrollton, Texas, San Leandro, California and Norcross, Georgia, respectively, and 9,500 and 1,800 square feet of office space in Switzerland and the U.K. The aggregate annual lease payments for our facilities were approximately $1,778,000.

MARKET FOR REGISTRANTS' COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS Our ordinary shares are quoted on the NASDAQ National Market under the symbol "FNDT". Prior to July 28, 1999, our symbol was "FNDTF". The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the high and low closing sales prices for the ordinary shares: HIGH LOW 1999 First Quarter.................................... 31 19 Second Quarter................................... 44 1/4 25 1/4 Third Quarter.................................... 31 3/8 21 3/8 Fourth Quarter................................... 21 1/2 10 9/16 2000 First Quarter.................................... 41 5/8 22 1/4 Second Quarter................................... 28 1/8 18 3/16 Third Quarter.................................... 26 7/8 19 1/4 Fourth Quarter................................... 24 1/4 14 5/16 2001 First Quarter .................................. 18.125 5.813 Second Quarter................................... 11.34 5.658 Third Quarter.................................... 7.50 4.52 Fourth Quarter................................... 5.36 3.42 2002 First Quarter (Through March 15, 2002)........ 5.24 3.54 On March 15, 2002, the last closing sale price of the ordinary shares, as reported by the NASDAQ National Market, was $4.20 per share. As of March 15, 2002, we had 65 shareholders of record. We believe that the number of beneficial owners of the ordinary shares is approximately 1500-2000. DIVIDEND POLICY We intend to retain all future earnings for use in the development of our business and do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. If we declare cash dividends, they could be taxable to the recipient. Because we have received benefits under the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 1959, as amended (the "Investment Law"), payment of cash dividends during the exemption period granted under the Investment Law will subject that portion of our income derived from the Approved Enterprise status granted to us under the Investment Law to Israeli taxes to which the income would not otherwise be subject. We intend to reinvest the amount of the tax-exempt income derived from our "Approved Enterprises" status permanently and not to distribute such income as dividends. Under the Israeli Companies Law of 1999 (the "Companies Law"), dividends may be paid by an Israeli company only out of its profits, as defined in such law. Under the Companies Law, a company's Board of Directors has the general authority to distribute dividends to the shareholders out of profits referred to above, and a company may determine in its Articles of Association that dividends may be approved: (i) by the general meeting, following a recommendation of the Board of Directors (the shareholders may reduce, but not increase, the dividends recommended by the Board of Directors), (ii) by the Board of Directors, after the shareholders have approved the maximum amount of dividends which may be distributed, and (iii) in any other manner detailed in a company's Articles of Association, provided that the company's board shall determine that such distribution complies with the provisions of the Companies Law. In the event we pay dividends, it is anticipated that any dividends paid to non-residents of Israel would be paid in NIS. PASSIVE FOREIGN INVESTMENT COMPANY We would be a passive foreign investment company (a "PFIC") for 2001 if (taking into account certain "look-through" rules with respect to the income and assets of our subsidiaries) either 75 percent or more of our gross income for the taxable year is passive income or the average percentage (by value) of our passive assets during the taxable year is at least 50 percent. 11 Based on discussions with our professional advisors, we reasonably believe that we should not be a PFIC for 2001. No ruling has been or will be obtained from the Internal Revenue Service as to whether we are a PFIC, and no assurance can be given that the Internal Revenue Service will not disagree with, or challenge in court, the position that we are not a PFIC, or that such challenge will not be sustained by a court. In general, if, notwithstanding our belief, we were a PFIC, each U.S. shareholder of ours would, unless it made one of the elections discussed below on a timely basis (generally on or before the due date (as extended) for its income tax return for the first tax year to which the election will apply), be taxable on gain recognized from the disposition of our shares (including gain deemed recognized if our shares are used as security for a loan) and upon receipt of certain distributions with respect to our shares as if such income had been recognized ratably over the shareholder's holding period during which we were a PFIC. The tax would be computed at the highest ordinary income tax rate in effect for each period to which the income is allocated, and an interest charge on the tax as so computed would also apply. Additionally, if we were a PFIC, U.S. shareholders who acquire our shares from decedents (other than nonresident aliens) dying before 2010 would be denied the normally-available step-up in basis for such shares to fair market value at the date of death and, instead, would have a tax basis in such shares equal to the decedent's basis, if lower. As an alternative to the tax treatment described above, a U.S. shareholder could elect to treat us as a "qualified electing fund" (a "QEF"), in which case the U.S. shareholder would be taxed currently on its pro rata share of our ordinary earnings and net capital gain (subject to a separate election to defer payment of taxes, which deferral is subject to an interest charge). As another alternative to the tax treatment described above, a U.S. shareholder could elect to mark our shares to market annually, recognizing as ordinary income or loss each year an amount equal to the difference as of the close of the taxable year between the fair market value of the our shares and the shareholder's adjusted basis in the shares. Losses would be allowed only to the extent of net mark-to-market gain previously included in income by the U.S. shareholder. The U.S. federal income tax consequences to a U.S. shareholder if we were to be a PFIC are complex. A U.S. shareholder should consult with its own advisor with regard thereto in light of its particular circumstances, as well as with regard to whether it should make, and the requirements for making, the elections described above. A U.S. shareholder considering making a QEF election should also consult with us to determine if we can provide or make available the information necessary to make such an election. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES There were no sales of unregistered securities in 2001. 12 ITEM 6.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW We are a leading provider of end-to-end financial transaction processing software solutions for financial institutions (FIs). These solutions are grouped into three broad categories: payment processing, foreign exchange settlement processing, and delivery channels for FI cash management products. These solutions enable banks to process and manage payments, foreign exchange settlements and cash management communication between FIs and their customers. The solutions facilitate communication between FIs and their customers for initiating payments, making inquiries and managing their activities with the FI. Our client/server web-enabled software products automate the payment and settlement processes and provide real-time transaction processing capabilities to FIs and their customers. We were incorporated in Israel in 1993. We acquired our ACCESS Banking(TM) products in April 1998, BBP, our Swiss subsidiary, in June 1999, and our Banker products in September 1999. To date, we have derived substantially all of our revenues from licenses of our ACCESS Banking(TM), ACCESS.Pro(TM), FEDplu$(TM), PAY$tar(TM), PAYplus RTGS(TM), PAYplus for CLS(TM), Global CASHstar(TM), WireUp(TM) and service bureau solutions and related services and third-party hardware sales. Financial information contained in Item 7 "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," is presented on a consolidated basis. Therefore, within Item 7 references to "we," "our" and "us" refer to us and our subsidiaries. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICY DISCLOSURE REVENUE RECOGNITION Our revenues are generated from licensing the rights to use our software products directly to end-users and indirectly through sub-license fees from resellers. In addition, we also generate revenues from selling professional services, including consulting, implementation, training and maintenance and hardware sales. Revenue from software license agreements is recognized when all criteria outlined in Statement Of Position (SOP) 97-2 "Software Revenue Recognition" (as amended) are satisfied. Revenue from license fees is recognized when persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, delivery of the product has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectibility is probable. Where software arrangements involve multiple elements, revenue is allocated to each element based on vendor specific objective evidence ("VSOE") of the relative fair values of each element in the arrangement, in accordance with the "residual method" prescribed by SOP 98-9 "Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition With Respect to Certain Transactions". Our VSOE used to allocate the sales price to services and maintenance is based on the price charged when these elements are sold separately. License revenue is recorded based on the residual method. Under the residual method, revenue is recognized for the delivered elements when (1) there is VSOE of the fair values of all the undelivered elements, and (2) all revenue recognition criteria of SOP 97-2, as amended, are satisfied. Under the residual method any discount in the arrangement is allocated to the delivered element. We generally do not grant rights of return to our customers. We generally provide a warranty period of up to six months at no extra charge. No provision is recorded at the time revenue is recognized for estimated warranty costs since, in our experience, such costs are immaterial. SOP 97-2 specifies that extended payment terms in a software licensing arrangement may indicate that the software license fees are not deemed to be fixed or determinable. In addition, if payment of a significant portion of the software license fees is not due until more than twelve months after delivery, the software license fees should be presumed not to be fixed or determinable, and thus should be recognized as the payments become due. However, SOP 97-2 specifies that if a company has a standard business practice of using extended payment terms in software licensing arrangements and has a history of successfully collecting the software license fees under the original terms of the software licensing arrangement without making concessions, such company overcomes the presumption that the software license fees are not fixed or determinable. Thus, a company should recognize software license fees when all other SOP 97-2 revenue recognition criteria are satisfied. We have concluded that for certain software arrangements with extended payment terms, the "fixed or determinable" presumption has been overcome and software license fees have been recognized upon meeting the remaining SOP 97-2 revenue recognition 14 criteria. The present value of such software license fees recognized in years 1999, 2000 and 2001 totaled approximately $1,700,000, $5,000,000 and $1,883,000 respectively. When contracts contain hosting services arrangements, we apply Emerging Issues Task Force 00-03 "Software Revenue Recognition, to Arrangements That Include the Right to Use Software Stored On Another Entity's Hardware." Arrangements that include professional services are evaluated to determine whether those services are essential to the functionality of other elements of the arrangement. When services are considered essential, revenue under the arrangement is recognized using contract accounting. When services are not considered essential, the revenue allocable to the software services is recognized as the services are performed. Revenues from software licenses that require significant customization, integration and installation are recognized based on SOP 81-1 "Accounting for Performance of Construction - Type and Certain Production -Type Contracts", using contract accounting on the percentage-of-completion method based on the relationship of actual costs incurred to total costs estimated to be incurred over the duration of the contract. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are first determined in the amount of the estimated loss on the entire contract. As of December 31, 2001 no such estimated losses were identified. Revenue on arrangements with customers who are not the ultimate users (such as resellers) is not recognized until the product has been delivered to the end user. Revenue from maintenance and services are recognized over the life of the maintenance agreement or at the time that services are rendered. Revenue from hardware sales are recognized when persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectibility is probable. Deferred revenue includes unearned amounts received under maintenance and support contracts and amounts billed to customers but not recognized as revenue. OTHER CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES Our trade receivables and long-term trade receivables primarily include amounts due from banks and large financial institutions. We generally do not require collateral; however, in certain circumstances, we may require letters of credit, other collateral or additional guarantees. An allowance for doubtful accounts is determined with respect to those specific amounts that we have determined to be doubtful of collection. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers. Management's assessment for uncertainties of outstanding debts collectibility resulted in a provision for doubtful accounts expenses in total amounts of $258,000, $717,000 and $5,966,000 for 1999, 2000 and 2001 respectively. We account for our investments in marketable securities using Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" ("SFAS No. 115"). Management determines the appropriate classification of its investments in marketable debt and equity securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such determinations at each balance sheet date. Debt securities for which we do not have the intent or ability to hold to maturity are classified as available-for-sale, along with any investments in equity securities that have not been classified as "trading securities". As of December 31, 2000 and 2001 all marketable securities were designated as available-for-sale. As of December 31, 2001, due to the market conditions, and since management believed that the decline in the fair value of the marketable securities was other than temporary, the cost basis of these securities was written down to fair value as a new cost basis. During the fourth quarter of 2001, we sold approximately 86% of our investment in marketable securities. As of December 31, 2001 an impairment and realized losses on available-for-sale marketable securities amounting to $7,826,000 was included in earnings. 15 Software development costs incurred in the process of developing product improvements or new products are generally charged to expenses as incurred, net of participation of the Office of the Chief Scientist. SFAS No. 86 "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed" requires capitalization of certain software development costs subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility. Based on our product development process, technological feasibility is established upon completion of a detailed program design. Our costs incurred between completion of the detailed program design and the point at which the product is ready for general release have been capitalized. As of December 31, 2001, the Company capitalized development costs totaling $7,876,000 in aggregate, which costs have not been amortized as the products are not yet ready for general release to customers. In response to declines associated with the cautious investment technology spending environment within the financial services industry, during the second quarter of 2001 we adopted a restructuring and integration plan. As part of the plan, through the end of January, 2002, we reduced our work force by 89 employees and sublet portions of our existing office space. In addition, we consolidated aspects of our Dallas operation into our existing operations in order to improve efficiency and eliminate duplicate cost structures. We began to realize the benefits of the plan in the third quarter of 2001 as evidenced by the reduction in total maintenance and services costs and total software development expenses. Total maintenance and services costs decreased by $1,280,000, or 13.11%, to $8,518,000 in the six months ended December 31, 2001 from $9,798,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2001. Software development expenses (before reduction for capitalization) decreased by $1,253,000, or 9.5%, to $11,916,000 in the six months ended December 31, 2001 from $13,169,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2001. In 2000 and 2001, we incurred expenses in connection with new ventures, which were to be reimbursed by such ventures upon the formation of the underlying entities. We capitalized $1,035,000 in connection with such ventures. In April 2001, management and the other investors decided not to proceed with the formation of the entities, which resulted in our writing-off the full amount. The currency of the primary economic environment in which our operations are conducted is the dollar. Thus, we use the dollar as our functional and reporting currency. Transactions and balances in other currencies are remeasured into dollars in accordance with the principles set forth in FASB Statement No. 52. Exchange gains and losses arising from remeasurement are recorded as income or expense as applicable. See "Impact of Inflation and Currency Fluctuations; Market Risks." The financial statements of a foreign subsidiary whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar have been translated into U.S. dollars. All balance sheet accounts have been translated using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Statement of operations amounts have been translated using the average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders' equity. Israeli companies, such as ours, are generally subject to income tax at the corporate rate of 36%. However, we are eligible for certain tax benefits which should result in our income being taxed at a significantly lower rate for some time after we begin to report taxable income and exhaust our net operating loss carry-forwards. See "Effective Corporate Tax Rate." SIGNIFICANT REVENUE INFORMATION The following table presents our consolidated revenues according to the geographical regions to which such revenues are attributable: 1999 2000 2001 ---- ---- ---- TOTAL TOTAL TOTAL REVENUES PERCENTAGE REVENUES PERCENTAGE REVENUES PERCENTAGE -------- ---------- -------- ---------- -------- ---------- Israel $ 495 1.6% $ 574 1.2% $ 205 0.5% U.S.A. 23,257 73.4 26,942 57.0 30,773 69.7 Australia 239 0.7 4,062 8.6 -- -- Switzerland 4,156 13.1 6,313 13.4 7,381 16.7 Other 3,544 11.2 9,389 19.8 5,798 13.1 ========== =========== ============ ======== ============== ======== $ 31,691 100.0% $ 47,280 100.0% $ 44,157 100.0% ========== =========== ============ ======== ============== ======== 16 MAJOR CUSTOMER In 2001, we derived approximately 17.7% of our annual revenues from the license fees, and consulting and maintenance service fees earned in connection with an agreement with a leading international financial institution. See "Business Description - Customers and Markets." We anticipate entering into new orders under this agreement which will likely result in an increase in fees earned from this customer in 2002. We also anticipate that these fees will represent a higher percentage of our total annual revenue in 2002 as compared to 2001. A failure of the bank to enter into or proceed with such orders could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. ACQUISITION OF BUSINESSES FROM CHECKFREE, BBP, AND CERTAIN ASSETS FROM STERLING In April 1998, we acquired from CheckFree two businesses engaged primarily in the design and development of cash management software products and the development and sale of wire transfer products. We paid $18,824,000 in cash (including acquisition expenses) for the acquired CheckFree businesses. The transaction was accounted for as a purchase and resulted in the initial recording of approximately $3 million of goodwill which is being amortized over a period of 10 years and a one time write-off of research and development in process in the amount of $16.6 million. In June 1999, we entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with Biveroni Batchelet Partners AG, a Swiss corporation ("BBP"), and its shareholders, pursuant to which we purchased all of the outstanding shares of BBP for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $13.9 million, of which 75% was paid in cash and 25% in stock (105,315 ordinary shares). The transaction was accounted for as a purchase and resulted in the initial recording of approximately $11.1 million of goodwill and other intangibles which is being amortized over an average period of 8.5 years and a one time write-off of research and development in process in the amount of $2.8 million. On September 30, 1999, Fundtech Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of ours and FCMS, LLC, our indirect wholly owned subsidiary, consummated the purchase of certain assets and assumed liabilities constituting the cash management business of Sterling Commerce (Northern America) Inc. (the "Cash Management Business") for approximately $6.9 million (including acquisition expenses). The cash consideration was paid through immediately available funds from our working capital. The transaction was accounted for as a purchase and resulted in the initial recording of approximately $7.3 million of goodwill and other intangibles which is being amortized over an average period of 9.2 years. Certain preacquisition contingency reserves were established as of the acquisition dates that are subject to adjustment during the "allocation period" in accordance with SFAS 38 "Accounting for Preacquisition Contingencies." The fair value of the net assets acquired from BBP and Sterling has been adjusted to reflect the resolution of these contingencies established relating to certain litigation and liabilities associated with acquired contractual commitments. The purchase price reallocation resulted in a total reduction to the fair value of the Sterling and BBP acquisitions of approximately $1,573,000 and $214,000 respectively as well as a corresponding increase to goodwill. 17 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following table sets forth for the periods indicated the percentage of revenues represented by each of the items in our statement of operations: YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, ------------------------------------------------------------------ 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- --------- Revenues: Software license fees............ 62.3% 60.6% 55.6% 60.3% 38.7% Maintenance and service fees..... 28.8 30.8 39.7 36.7 59.4 Hardware sales................... 8.9 8.6 4.7 3.0 1.9 ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- --------- Total revenues................. 100.0 100.0 100.0 100.0 100.0 ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- --------- Cost of revenues: Software license costs........... 4.2 1.0 1.8 0.5 2.0 Maintenance and service costs.... 13.5 19.7 25.3 26.0 41.5 Hardware costs................... 8.1 7.1 3.6 2.4 1.6 ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- --------- Total cost of revenues......... 25.8 27.8 30.7 28.9 45.1 ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- --------- Gross profit........................ 74.2 72.2 69.3 71.1 54.9 ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- --------- Operating expenses: Software development, net........ 30.8 28.7 40.6 37.5 43.5 Selling and marketing, net....... 21.8 12.8 20.4 20.4 23.4 General and administrative....... 14.8 9.0 11.8 13.2 21.1 Amortization of acquisition, related goodwill and other intangible assets -- 0.9 4.0 5.3 5.7 Provision for doubtful accounts .... 1.3 0.8 0.9 1.6 13.5 Non recurring expenses -- -- -- -- 9.2 In-process research and development write-off........................ -- 71.8 8.8 -- -- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- --------- Total operating expenses............ 68.7 124.0 86.5 77.8 116.4 ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- --------- Operating income (loss)............. 5.5 (51.8) (17.2) (6.7) (61.5) Impairment and realized losses on available for sale marketable securities.......................

Software license fees consist of revenues derived from software license agreements entered into between us and our customers. Software license fees decreased by $11,425,000, or 40.1%, to $17,067,000 in the year ended December 31, 2001 from $28,492,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000. The decrease is primarily attributable to lengthening sales cycles and more cautious spending on the part of the information technology departments of financial institutions. Maintenance and Services Fees. Maintenance and services fees include revenues derived from maintenance contracts, installation and training fees, service bureau fees, consulting fees, certification fees and related items. We generally receive a contract for maintenance and services at the time a contract for the license is entered into. Maintenance and services fees increased by $8,897,000, or 51.3%, to $26,248,000 in the year ended December 31, 2001 from $17,351,000 in the year ended December 31, 2000. The increase is commensurate with the increase in software licenses (and corresponding license fees) under maintenance and the increase in the services provided under large projects for top-tiered customers. Hardware Sales. Hardware sales consist of the reselling of third-party hardware in connection with the licensing and installation of our software. Hardware sales decreased by $595,000, or 41.4%, to $842,000 in the year ended December 31, 2001 from $1,437,000 in the year ended December 31, 2000. The decrease in hardware sales is attributable to a decrease in the number of software licenses in connection with which the customer purchased hardware through us. Software License Costs. Software license costs consist primarily of the royalty payments related to grants from the Government of Israel, product media, duplication, manuals, shipping, third-party embedded software costs and royalties to others. Software license costs increased by $644,000, or 255.6%, to $896,000 in the year ended December 31, 2001, from $252,000 in the year ended December 31, 2000. The gross margin of software license fees decreased from 99% in the year ended December 31, 2000 to 95% in the year ended December 31, 2001. The decrease in the gross margin is primarily due to an increase in third-party embedded software costs and royalties. 18 Maintenance and Services Costs. Maintenance and services costs consist primarily of personnel costs, telephone support costs and other costs related to the provision of maintenance, service bureau and professional services. Maintenance and services costs increased by $6,024,000 or 49.0% to $18,316,000 in the year ended December 31, 2001, from $12,292,000 in the year ended December 31, 2000 due to increased software licenses under maintenance and the increase in the services provided under large projects for top-tiered customers. The gross margin on maintenance and services fees increased slightly from 29.1% in the year ended December 31, 2000 to 30.1% in the year ended December 31, 2001. Hardware Costs. Hardware costs consist primarily of our cost of computer hardware resold to our customers. The cost of hardware sales decreased by $445,000, or 39.3%, to $686,000 in the year ended December 31, 2001 from $1,131,000 in the year ended December 31, 2000. The decrease in costs is commensurate with the decrease in hardware sales. The gross margin on hardware decreased from 21.3% in the year December 31, 2000 to 18.5% in the year ended December 31, 2001. The decrease in gross margin is primarily due to volume discounts. Software Development. Software development expenses are related to the development and testing of new products. Software development expenses increased by $1,438,000, or 8.1%, to $19,185,000 in the year ended December 31, 2001, from $17,747,000 in the year ended December 31, 2000. These amounts exclude $5,901,000 of capitalized costs in the year ended December 31, 2001, and $1,975,000 of capitalized costs in the year ended December 31, 2000, incurred for the development of the Company's Global PAYplus product. The increase in software development costs is principally related to the development and enhancement of new products such as PAYplus RTGS(TM), PAYplus for CLS(TM), ACCESS.pro(TM), NOSTROPlus(TM) and the Banker suite. Selling and Marketing, Net. Selling and marketing expenses increased by $688,000, or 7.1%, to $10,325,000 in the year ended December 31, 2001 from $9,637,000 in the year ended December 31, 2000. Selling and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenues increased by 3% to 23.4% in the year ended December 31, 2001 from 20.4% in the year ended December 31, 2000. This increase as a percentage of revenues is primarily attributable to a decrease in revenues and an increase in expenses resulting from operating the Singapore office and the expanded European operations for the full year. General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased by $3,121,000, or 50.2%, to $9,328,000 in the year ended December 31, 2001 from $6,207,000 in the year ended December 31, 2000. This increase is due to the headcount addition of general and administrative personnel an increase in average salaries and an increase in professional and consulting fees. Amortization of Acquisition-Related Goodwill and other Intangible Assets. Amortization expense increased by $63,000, or 2.6%, to $2,525,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001 from $2,462,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000. This amortization of goodwill has remained relatively stable. In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations" and No.142 "Goodwill and other Intangible Assets" ("the Statements"), effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Under the new rules, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives will no longer be amortized but will be subject to annual impairment tests in accordance with the Statements. Other intangible assets will continue to be amortized over their useful lives. We will apply the new rule beginning in the first quarter of 2002. During 2002, we will perform the first of the required impairment tests of goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets. We cannot yet estimate what the effect, if any, of these tests will be on our financial position and results of operations. Provision for Doubtful Accounts. Management's assessment for uncertainties of outstanding debts collectibility resulted in a provision for doubtful accounts totaling $5,966,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001 compared to $717,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000. Non-Recurring Expenses. In connection with the restructuring and integration plan we adopted in the second quarter of 2001, we recorded non-recurring expenses totaling $3,038,000. These non-recurring expenses included: (i) facility closures and related costs in the amount of $1,513,000; (ii) employee termination benefits and related costs in the amount of $790,000; (iii) property and equipment abandonment in the amount of $270,000 and (iv) integration costs in the amount of $465,000. In addition, in the second quarter of 2001 we wrote-off $1,035,000 in connection with the decision not to proceed with the formation of certain entities. For further explanation, see the "Other Critical Accounting Policies" section above. 19 Impairment of Marketable Securities. The charge for impairment of marketable securities was $7,826,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001 as compared to $0 for the year ended December 31, 2000. As of December 31, 2001, due to market conditions the unrealized losses in our marketable securities increased to $7,826,000. Since we believe this decline is other than temporary, the cost basis of these securities was written down to fair value as a new cost basis. Financial Income, Net. Net financial income decreased by $2,199,000, or 40%, to $3,343,000 in the year ended December 31, 2001 from $5,542,000 in the year ended December 31, 2000. The decrease of the financial income is primarily due to a decrease in cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities, as well as interest and dividend rate declines that were earned on such holdings. YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2000 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999 Software License Fees. Software license fees consist of revenues derived from software license agreements entered into between us and our customers. Software license fees increased by $10,825,000 to $28,492,000 in the year ended December 31, 2000 from $17,667,000 for the year ended December 31, 1999, an increase of 61%. This increase was attributable to the sale of our current product offerings, specifically PAYplus RTGS(TM), PAYplus for CLS(TM) and ACCESS Banking(TM), as well as a growth in sales from businesses acquired in 1999, including the Banker internet cash management products and revenues generated from the BBP service bureau. Maintenance and Services Fees. Maintenance and services fees include revenues derived from maintenance contracts, installation and training revenue, consulting fees, certification fees and related items. We generally receive a contract for maintenance and service at the time a contract for the license is entered into. Maintenance and services fees increased by $4,820,000 to $17,351,000 in the year ended December 31, 2000 from $12,531,000 in the year ended December 31, 1999, an increase of 38%. The increase was commensurate with the increase in the number of customer licenses and the acquisition of BBP and the Sterling Cash Management Business during 1999. Hardware Sales. Hardware sales consist of the reselling of third-party hardware in connection with the license and installation of our software. Hardware sales decreased by $56,000 to $1,437,000 in the year ended December 31, 2000 from $1,493,000 in the year ended December 31, 1999, a decrease of 4%. The decrease in hardware sales was attributable to the decrease in the number of software licenses sold whereby the customer also purchased hardware through us. Software License Costs. Software license costs consist primarily of the royalty payments related to grants from the Government of Israel, product media, duplication, manuals, shipping and royalties to others. Software license costs decreased by $307,000 to $252,000 in the year ended December 31, 2000 from $559,000 in the year ended December 31, 1999, a decrease of 55%. The gross margin of software license fees increased from 97% in the year ended December 31, 1999 to 99% in the year ended December 31, 2000. The increase in gross margin is attributable to the decrease in royalty bearing software as a percentage of total sales as most of our product offerings are not royalty-bearing. Maintenance and Services Costs. Maintenance and services costs consist primarily of personnel costs, telephone support costs and other costs related to the provision of maintenance and consulting services. Maintenance and services costs increased by $4,241,000 to $12,292,000 in the year ended December 31, 2000 from $8,051,000 in the year ended December 31, 1999, an increase of 53%. The gross margin on maintenance and services fees decreased from 36% in the year ended December 31, 1999 to 29% in the year ended December 31, 2000. The decrease is attributed to a lower gross margin on the PAYplus for CLS(TM) product and the need to increase the support staff in expectation of expansion in services contracts in the future. Hardware Costs. Hardware costs consist primarily of our cost of computer hardware resold to our customers. Cost of hardware sales decreased by $1,000 to $1,131,000 in the year ended December 31, 2000 from $1,132,000 in the year ended December 31, 1999, a decrease of 0.1%. The gross margin on hardware decreased from 24% in the year December 31, 1999 to 21.3% in the year ended December 31, 2000. The decrease on gross margin was primarily due to an increase in lower margin products accounting for a greater percentage of the overall hardware revenue. Software Development. Software development expenses are related to the development and testing of new products. Software development expenses increased by $4,867,000 to $17,747,000 in the year ended December 31, 2000, from $12,880,000 in the year ended December 31, 1999, an increase of 38%. The increase in software development costs is principally related to the further development of new product offerings such as PAYplus for CLS(TM), PAYplus RTGS(TM), ACCESS.pro(TM), NOSTROPlus(TM) and Global CASHstar and also due to the development resources added as a result of the acquisition of BBP and the Sterling Cash Management Business. 20 Selling and Marketing, Net. Selling and marketing expenses increased by $3,173,000 to $9,637,000 in the year ended December 31, 2000 from $6,464,000 in the year ended December 31, 1999, an increase of 49%. Selling and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenues remained constant at 20% in the years ended December 31, 1999 and 2000. The increase in costs is attributed to expenses relating to opening the sales offices in Australia and Singapore and expanding the sales channels in Europe as well as increasing the size of the U.S. sales group. General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased by $2,470,000 to $6,207,000 in the year ended December 31, 2000 from $3,737,000 in the year ended December 31, 1999, an increase of 66.1%. The increase is due to the expansion of the business which primarily required additional personnel, among other factors. Amortization of Acquisition-Related Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Amortization expenses increased by $1,187,000 to $2,462,000 in the year ended December 31, 2000 from $1,275,000 in the year ended December 31, 1999, an increase of 93.1%. The increase is due to the amortization of goodwill from the acquisition of BBP and the Sterling Cash Management Business which took place in June and September 1999, respectively. Provision for Doubtful Accounts. Provision for doubtful accounts increased by 459,000 to $717,000 in the year ended December 31, 2000 from $258,000 in the year ended December 31, 1999. Financial Income, Net. Net financial income increased by $1,786,000 to $5,542,000 in the year ended December 31, 2000 from $3,756,000 in the year ended December 31, 1999 an increase of 48%. The increase of the financial income is due mainly to interest earned on cash received from our April 30, 1999 secondary public offering. YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998 Software License Fees. Software license fees consist of revenues derived from software license agreements entered into between us and our customers. Software license fees increased by $3,660,000 to $17,667,000 in the year ended December 31, 1999 from $14,007,000 for the year ended December 31, 1998, an increase of 26%. This increase was attributable to the licensing of our current product offerings, as well as growth in the licensing from our acquired businesses, including the internet cash management products. The increase was also attributable to revenues generated from the BBP service bureau. Maintenance and Services Fees. Maintenance and services fees include revenues derived from maintenance contracts, installation and training revenue, consulting fees, certification fees and related items. We generally receive a contract for maintenance and service at the time a contract for the license is entered into. Maintenance and services fees increased by $5,415,000 to $12,531,000 in the year ended December 31, 1999 from $7,116,000 in the year ended December 31, 1998, an increase of 76%. The increase was commensurate with the increase in the number of customers and the acquisition of BBP and the Sterling Cash Management Business during 1999. Hardware Sales. Hardware sales consist of the reselling of third-party hardware in connection with the license and installation of our software. Hardware sales decreased by $516,000 to $1,493,000 in the year ended December 31, 1999 from $2,009,000 in the year ended December 31, 1998, a decrease of 26%. The decrease in hardware sales was attributable to the decrease in the number of software licenses sold whereby the customer also purchased hardware through us. Software License Costs. Software license costs consist primarily of the royalty payments related to grants from the Government of Israel, product media, duplication, manuals, shipping and royalties to others. Software license costs increased by $321,000 to $559,000 in the year ended December 31, 1999 from $238,000 in the year ended December 31, 1998, an increase of 135%. The gross margin of software license fees decreased from 98% in the year ended December 31, 1998 to 97% in the year ended December 31, 1999. The decrease in gross margin is attributable to the increase in royalty bearing software as a percentage of total sales as certain of our product offerings are not royalty-bearing. Maintenance and Services Costs. Maintenance and services costs consist primarily of personnel costs, telephone support costs and other costs related to the provision of maintenance and consulting services. Maintenance and services costs increased by $3,502,000 to $8,051,000 in the year ended December 31, 1999 from $4,549,000 in the year ended December 31, 1998, an increase of 77%. The gross margin on maintenance and services fees remained constant at 36% in the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1999. The increase in maintenance and services costs is attributable to the growth in sales and includes costs related to the acquired entities. Hardware Costs. Hardware costs consist primarily of our cost of computer hardware resold to our customers. Cost of hardware sales decreased by $499,000 to $1,132,000 in the year ended December 31, 1999 from $1,631,000 in the year ended 21 December 31, 1998, a decrease of 31%. This gross margin on hardware increased from 19% in the year December 31, 1998 to 24% in the year ended December 31, 1999. The increase on gross margin was primarily due to an increase in higher margin products accounting for a greater percentage of the overall hardware revenue. Software Development. Software development expenses are related to the development and testing of new products. Software development expenses increased by $6,244,000 to $12,880,000 in the year ended December 31, 1999, from $6,636,000 in the year ended December 31, 1998, an increase of 94%. The increase in software development costs is principally related to the development of our new product offerings, such as Global PAYplus RTGS(TM), ACCESS.pro(TM), NOSTROPlus(TM) and Global CASHstar and is also due to the development resources added as a result of the acquisition of BBP and the Sterling Cash Management Business. In the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1999, we did not receive grants from the Government of Israel. Selling and Marketing, Net. Selling and marketing expenses increased by $3,494,000 to $6,464,000 in the year ended December 31, 1999 from $2,970,000 in the year ended December 31, 1998, an increase of 118%. Selling and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenues increased from 13% in December 31, 1998 to 20% in the year ended December 31, 1999 due to a decrease in sales attributable to each salesperson, expenses relating to opening the sales office in Australia expanding the sales channels in Europe and increasing the size of the U.S. sales group. General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased by $1,657,000 to $3,737,000 in the year ended December 31, 1999 from $2,080,000 in the year ended December 31, 1998, an increase of 79.7%. The increase is due to the expansion of the business. Amortization of Acquisition-Related Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Amortization expenses increased by $1,069,000 to $1,275,000 in the year ended December 31, 1999 from $206,000 in the year ended December 31, 1998, an increase of 519%. The increase is due to the amortization of goodwill from the acquisition of BBP and the Sterling Cash Management Business that took place in June and September 1999, respectively. Provision for Doubtful Accounts. Provision for doubtful accounts increased by $85,000 to $185,000 in the year ended December 1999 from $100,000 in the year ended December 31, 1998. Financial Income, Net. Net financial income increased by $3,185,000 to $3,756,000 in the year ended December 31, 1999 from $571,000 in the year ended December 31, 1998 an increase of 558%. The increase of the financial income is due mainly to interest earned on cash received from our April 30, 1999 secondary public offering. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES We have financed our operations primarily through the sale of equity securities in the amount of approximately $139.7 million including net proceeds from the 1998 initial public offering in the amount of approximately $29.0 million, proceeds from the follow-on 1999 public offering in the amount of approximately $92.3 million and grants from the Government of Israel. As of December 31, 2001, working capital was $55.2 million, of which cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities were $45.4 million. Cash flows from operations. Net cash used in operating activities amounted to $5.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 as compared to $9.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. This decrease of $4.7 million was primarily due to the decrease in net income, net of the charge for impairment of marketable securities in 2001, offset by the net decrease in trade receivables and long-term trade receivables and the increase in deferred revenues and accrued expenses. Cash flows from investing activities. Net cash provided by investing activities amounted to $26.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 as compared to net cash used which amounted to $14.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. This change was primarily due to the proceeds from the sale of short-term bank deposits and marketable securities in 2001 as well as the decrease in purchase of property and equipment, offset by the capitalization of software development costs in 2001 compared to 2000. Capital expenditures totaled $2.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2001 as compared to $3.4 million for the same period in 2000. We believe our capital expenditure program is sufficient to maintain our current level and quality of operations. We review our capital expenditures program periodically and modify it as required to meet current needs. Cash flows from financing activities. Net cash provided by investing activities was $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 as compared to $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. The decrease was due to the decrease in proceeds from the issuance of share capital and exercise of stock options and warrants, net. 22 We believe that cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities (including proceeds from our public offerings) will provide adequate financial resources to finance our current and planned future operations for the foreseeable future. However, in the event that we make one or more acquisitions for consideration consisting of all or a substantial part of our available cash, we might be required to seek external debt or equity financing for such acquisition or acquisitions or to fund subsequent operations. IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CURRENCY FLUCTUATIONS; MARKET RISK The dollar cost of our operations in Israel is influenced by the extent to which any increase in the rate of inflation in Israel is (or is not) offset (or is offset on a lagging basis) by the devaluation of the NIS in relation to the U.S. dollar. Inflation in Israel will have a negative effect on our profitability of contracts under which we receive payments in U.S. dollars or U.S. dollar-linked NIS while incurring expenses in NIS linked to the Israeli CPI, unless such inflation is offset by a devaluation of the NIS. For some time until 1997, inflation in Israel exceeded the devaluation of the NIS against the U.S. dollar, and we experienced increases in the dollar cost of our operations in Israel. This trend was reversed in 1997 and 1998. In 1997, the rate of inflation was 7.0% and the rate of devaluation was 8.8%. In 1998, the rate of inflation was 8.6% and the rate of devaluation was 17.6%. In 1999, Israel experienced inflation at the rate of 1.3% as well as a devaluation of the U.S. dollar against the NIS at the rate of 0.2%. In 2000, the rate of inflation was 0% and the rate of devaluation of the dollar against the NIS was at the rate of 2.7%. In 2001, the rate of inflation was 1.4% and the rate of devaluation of the U.S. dollar against the NIS was at the rate of 9.3%. A devaluation of the NIS in relation to the U.S. dollar would have the effect of decreasing the U.S. dollar value of any asset of our assets that consist of NIS or receivables payable in NIS (unless such receivables are linked to the U.S. dollar). Such a devaluation would also have the effect of reducing the U.S. dollar amount of any expenses or liabilities which are payable in NIS (unless such expenses or payables are linked to the U.S. dollar). Conversely, any increase in the value of the NIS in relation to the U.S. dollar would have the effect of increasing the U.S. dollar value of any unlinked NIS assets and the U.S. dollar amounts of any unlinked NIS liabilities and expenses. Because exchange rates between the NIS and the U.S. dollar fluctuate continuously (albeit with a historically declining trend in the value of the NIS), exchange rate fluctuations, and especially larger periodic devaluations, will have an impact on our profitability and period-to-period comparisons of our results. Such impact is recorded in our financial statements as financial income or expense. To date, we have not engaged in currency-hedging transactions intended to reduce the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates on our results of operations. EFFECTIVE CORPORATE TAX RATE Our development facility in Israel has been granted "Approved Enterprise" status under Israel's Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments.

Our Amended and Restated Articles of Association (the "Articles of Association"), provides that, unless otherwise resolved by an ordinary resolution of the General Meeting, the number of directors on the Board of Directors of the Company shall be between five and seven directors. The minimum number of directors is five. Officers serve at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Prior to every annual meeting, the Board of Directors selects a panel of between five and seven persons to be proposed to the shareholders of Fundtech for election as directors. Such individuals, if elected, serve as directors until the next annual meeting. The above does not apply to the nomination of "independent"/"external" directors under the Companies Law, as explained below. Except for such nominees, no panel of candidates for a directorship may be proposed at an annual meeting unless not less than 72 hours and not more than 42 days prior to the date appointed for the ordinary annual meeting, a notice in writing, signed by shareholders holding at least 10% of our issued and outstanding shares who are entitled to attend a meeting in respect of which such notice has been sent and who are entitled to vote thereat, is delivered to Fundtech stating that such shareholders intend to propose candidates for such directorships instead of the nominees proposed by the Board of Directors. The directors, other than the "independent"/"external" directors under the Companies Law, are elected by an resolution at every annual meeting, for a term of office which shall end upon the convening of the first annual shareholder meeting held after the date of their election. The Articles of Association provide that a director may appoint, by written notice to Fundtech, any individual to serve as an alternate director, subject to the provisions of the Companies Law. Any alternate director shall have all of the rights and obligations of the appointing director except the power to appoint an alternate for himself or herself. Unless the period or scope of any such appointment is limited by the appointing director, such appointment is effective for all purposes and for a period of time concurrent with the term of the appointing director. INDEPENDENT OR "EXTERNAL" DIRECTORS Under the Companies Law, companies incorporated under the laws of Israel whose shares have been offered to the public in or outside of Israel (i.e. public companies) are required to appoint two independent or "external" directors on their Board of Directors. A person may not be appointed as an external director if the person or the person's relative, partner, employer or any entity under such person's control, has, as of the date of the person's election as an external director, or had, during the two years preceding such election, any affiliation with the company, any person or entity controlling the company or any entity controlled by the company or by this controlling entity. The term "affiliation" includes: o an employment relationship; o business or professional relationship maintained on a regular basis; o control; and o service as an office holder. A person may not serve as an external director if the person's other duties or responsibilities create, or may create, a conflict of interest with the person's responsibilities as an external director or may adversely impact such person's ability to serve as an external director. 28 Under the Companies Law, each committee which is authorized to exercise one of the functions of the Board of Directors is required to include at least one external director. The term of an external director is three years and may be extended by the shareholders for an additional three year term. Until the lapse of two years from termination of service as director, a company may not engage an external director to serve as an office holder and cannot employ or receive services from that person, either directly or indirectly, including through a corporation controlled by that person. The external directors must be elected by the majority of the shareholders in a general meeting. Such majority must either include at least one-third (1/3) of the shares of non-controlling shareholders voting on the matter, or the total shares of non-controlling shareholders voting against the election may not represent more than one percent (1%) of the voting rights in the company. George Lieberman and Ben-Zion Zilberfarb currently serve as independent or "external" directors within the meaning prescribed by the Companies Law. In addition, Gil Weiser and Rony Ross qualify as independent directors under the requirements prescribed by NASDAQ. DUTIES UNDER THE COMPANIES LAW The Companies Law codifies the fiduciary duties that "office holder" including directors and executive officers, owe to a company. An office holder's fiduciary duties consist of a duty of care and a duty of loyalty. The duty of care requires an office holder to act with the same level of skill with which a reasonable office holder in the same position would act under the same circumstances. This includes a duty to use reasonable means to obtain information on the advisability of a given action brought for such office holder's approval or performed by him by virtue of his position, and all other significant information pertaining to such action. The duty of loyalty requires an office holder to act in good faith and for the company's benefit, and includes avoiding any conflict of interest between the office holder's position in the company and any other position held by him or his personal affairs, avoiding any competition with the company, avoiding exploiting any business opportunity of the company in order to receive personal advantage for himself or others, and revealing to the company any information or documents relating to the company's affairs which the office holder has received due to his position as an office holder. Under the Companies Law, all arrangements as to compensation of office holders who are not directors require approval of the Board of Directors, in certain cases with the prior approval of the Audit Committee, and, with respect to indemnification and insurance of these office holders, also require Audit Committee approval. Arrangements regarding the compensation of directors, regardless of whether to be paid in such director's position as a director or employee of the Company, require the approval of the Audit Committee, Board of Directors and shareholders. APPROVAL OF CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS UNDER THE COMPANIES LAW The Companies Law requires that an office holder of a company promptly disclose any personal interest that he or she may have and all related material information known to him or her in connection with any existing proposed transaction by the company. If the transaction is an extraordinary transaction as defined under the Companies Law, the office holder must also disclose any personal interest held by the office holder's spouse, siblings, parents, grandparents, descendants, spouse's descendants and the spouses of any of the foregoing. In addition, the office holder must also disclose any interest held by any corporation in which the office holder is a five percent (5%) or greater shareholder, director or general manager or in which he or she has the right to appoint at least one director or the general manager. An extraordinary transaction is defined as a transaction which is either (i) not in the ordinary course of business, or (ii) not on market terms, or (iii) likely to have a material impact on the company's profitability, assets or liabilities. In the case of a transaction of a company with an office holder, which is not an extraordinary transaction, after the office holder complies with the above disclosure requirement only approval of the Board of Directors is required unless the company's articles of association provide otherwise. Such transaction must not be adverse to the company's interest. Furthermore, if the transaction is an extraordinary transaction, then, in addition to any approval stipulated by the articles of association, it also must be approved by the company's Audit Committee and then by the Board of Directors, and, under certain circumstances, by the shareholders of the company. In most cases an office holder who has a personal interest in a matter which is considered at a meeting of the Board of Directors or the Audit Committee may not be present at the meeting or vote on this matter. The Companies Law applies the same disclosure requirements to a controlling shareholder as it does to an office holder of a public company. A controlling shareholder is a shareholder who has the ability to direct the operation of the company (except if such ability derives only from his position as director or office holder in the company), including a shareholder that holds 25% or more of the voting rights if no other shareholder owns more than 50% of the voting rights in the company. Extraordinary transactions with a controlling shareholder or in which a controlling shareholder has a personal interest, and the terms of compensation (whether as an office holder or an employee) of a controlling shareholder who is an office holder, 29 require the approval of the Audit Committee, the Board of Directors and the shareholders of the company. The shareholder approval must include at least one-third of the shareholders who have no personal interest in the transaction and are present (in person or by proxy) at the meeting or, alternatively, the total shareholdings of those who have no personal interest in the transaction who vote against the transaction must not represent more than one percent of the voting rights in the company. In addition, a private placement of securities that will increase the relative holdings of a shareholder that holds five percent (5%) or more of a company's outstanding share capital or voting rights (assuming the exercise or conversion of all securities held by such person that are exercisable for or convertible into shares) or that will cause any person to become, as a result of the issuance, a holder of more than five percent (5%) of the company's outstanding share capital or voting rights, requires approval by the Board of Directors and the shareholders of such company. Our Articles of Association provide that the Board of Directors may delegate all of its powers to such committees of the Board of Directors as it deems appropriate, subject to the provisions of the applicable law. For information concerning the direct and indirect personal interests of certain of our Office Holders and principal shareholders in certain transactions with us, see "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions." INTERNAL AUDITOR Pursuant to the Companies Law, the Board of Directors of a public company must appoint an internal auditor. The role of the internal auditor is to examine, among other things, whether the actions of the Company comply with the law and follow orderly business procedures. The internal auditor may be an employee of the Company but may not be an interested party, an office holder or a relative of an interested party or office holder, and may not be a member of the auditors of the Company or such auditor's representative. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS Sections 260 and 261 of the Companies Law permit a company to perform both of the following actions, provided that such actions are authorized by the company's articles of association: (i) insure an office holder for the breach of his duty of care or, to the extent he acted in good faith and had a reasonable basis to believe that the act would not prejudice the company, for the breach of his fiduciary duty as well as for monetary liabilities charged against him as a result of an act or omission he committed in connection with his serving as an officer or director of the company, and (ii) indemnify an office holder for monetary liability incurred by him pursuant to a judgment, including a settlement or arbitration decision approved by a court, as well as for reasonable legal expenses incurred by him in an action brought against him by or on behalf of the company or others, or as a result of a criminal charge of which he was acquitted, or as a result of a criminal procedure in which he was convicted of a felony which does not require proof of criminal intent provided that any such liability or expense incurred by such office holder is due to an action performed by such office holder by virtue of his position with the company. Under Section 260(B) of the Companies Law, a company is entitled to undertake in advance to indemnify an office holder for the breach of his or her duty of care, provided that the articles of association of the company permit such indemnification in advance and further provided that such indemnification shall be limited to the type of events that, in the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company, may be anticipated at such time of undertaking and that such undertaking shall be limited to an amount which the Board of Directors deems reasonable in light of the applicable circumstances. These are specifically limited in their scope by Section 263 of the Companies Law, which provides that a company may not indemnify an office holder nor enter into an insurance contract which would provide coverage for any liability incurred as a result of the following: (a) a breach by the office holder of his fiduciary duty unless he acted in good faith and had a reasonable basis to believe that the act would not prejudice the company; (b) a breach by the office holder of his duty of care if such breach was done intentionally or recklessly; (c) any act or omission done with the intent to derive an unlawful personal benefit; or (d) any fine levied against such office holder. In addition, under Section 259 of the Companies Law a company may exempt an office holder from his duty of care to the company, in whole or in part and subject to the limitations of Section 263 of the Companies Law described above, provided that such actions are authorized by the company's articles of association. The Articles of Association provide that the Company may enter into a contract for the insurance of the liability, in whole or in part, of any of its office holders (as defined below) with respect to: (i) a breach of his duty of care to Fundtech or to another person; (ii) a breach of his fiduciary duty to Fundtech, provided that the office holder acted in good faith and had a reasonable basis to assume that his actions would not adversely affect the best interests of Fundtech; or (iii) a financial liability imposed upon him in favor of another person in respect of an act performed by him in his capacity as an office holder of Fundtech. In addition, Fundtech may indemnify an office holder against: (i) a financial liability imposed on him in favor of another person by any judgment, including a compromise judgment or an arbitrator's award approved by a court in respect of 30 an act performed in his capacity as an office holder of Fundtech, and (ii) reasonable litigation expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred by such office holder or charged to him by a court in proceedings instituted against him by Fundtech or on its behalf or by another person, or in a criminal charge from which he was acquitted, all in respect of an act performed in his capacity as an office holder of Fundtech. AUDIT COMMITTEE Pursuant to the Companies Law, the Board of Directors of a public company must appoint an Audit Committee as well as an internal auditor that meet the following requirements. The Audit Committee must be comprised of at least three directors, including all of the external directors elected as such in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Law. The Audit Committee may not include the chairman of the Board of Directors, any director employed by the Company or providing services to the Company on a regular basis or a controlling shareholder or his relative. The role of the Audit Committee is to examine problems in the management of the Company, in consultation with the internal auditor and the Company's auditor, and suggest an appropriate course of action. In addition, the approval of the Audit Committee is required in order to take certain actions and to enter into transactions with office holders and interested parties. Under the requirements for quotation on NASDAQ, we are required to have at least three independent directors on its Board of Directors and to establish an Audit Committee. A majority of the members of the audit committee must be independent of management and financially literate. In addition, one of such independent directors must have accounting or related financial management expertise. We are in compliance with this requirement. DIRECTOR COMPENSATION Prior to 2002, pursuant to its directors' stock option plan, we granted options to purchase up to 6,000 ordinary shares to each member of the Board of Directors for service from such member's election to the Board of Directors until the next annual meeting of the shareholders. In 2002, pursuant to its directors' stock option plan, we granted options to purchase up to 15,000 ordinary shares to each member of the Board of Directors for service from such member's election to the Board of Directors until the second annual meeting of the shareholders following such election. We do not otherwise currently compensate directors for attending meetings of the Board of Directors or committee meetings of the Board of Directors, but we do reimburse directors for their reasonable travel expenses incurred in connection with attending these meetings.

OPTION GRANTS IN LAST FISCAL YEAR There were no options granted in the last fiscal year. OPTION EXERCISES IN THE LAST FISCAL YEAR AND FISCAL YEAR-END OPTION VALUES The following table summarizes for each of the Named Executive Officers option exercises during fiscal 2001, including the aggregate value of gains on the date of exercise, the total number of unexercised options for ordinary shares, if any, held at December 31, 2001 and the aggregate dollar value of unexercised in-the-money options for ordinary shares, if any, held at December 31, 2001. Value of unexercised in-the-money options at fiscal year-end is the difference between the exercise or base price of such options and the fair market value of the underlying ordinary shares on December 31, 2001, which was $5.36 per share. These values have not been, and may never be, realized, as these options have not been, and may never be, 32 exercised. Actual gains, if any, upon exercise will depend on the value of ordinary shares on the date of any exercise of options.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Fundtech Ltd. ("the Company") and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2000 and 2001, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance as to whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

F-8 FUNDTECH LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (U.S. dollars in thousands, except share data and per share data) NOTE 1:- GENERAL a. Fundtech Ltd. ("the Company") was incorporated in Israel in April 1993, and commenced operations approximately at that time. In 1995, Fundtech Corporation ("Fundtech Corp."), a wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary of the Company was incorporated in the U.S.A and commenced operations at that time. On December 29, 1998 the Company established a wholly-owned subsidiary in England ("Fundtech England"). This subsidiary commenced its operations on January 6, 1999. On July 26, 1999, the Company established a wholly-owned subsidiary in the Netherlands under the name Fundtech Netherlands BV ("BV"). On September 30, 1999, the Company established, through Fundtech Corp., a wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary which is incorporated in the State of Texas under the name FCMS, LLC. On November 26, 1999, the Company established a wholly-owned subsidiary in Australia under the name Fundtech Australia PTY Limited ("Fundtech Australia") This subsidiary commenced operations in January 2000. The Company and its subsidiaries design, develop, market and support a suite of mission critical client/server software and internet software which automate the process of transferring funds among corporations, banks and clearance systems, and enable businesses to manage global cash positions efficiently and in real time. For a description of principal markets and customers, see Note 14. b. Acquisitions: 1. In June 1999, the Company acquired through its wholly-owned subsidiary (BV) all the outstanding shares of Biveroni Batchelet Partners AG ("BBP"), a Swiss corporation in the field of electronic payment solutions, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $ 13,963, of which $ 11,009 was paid in cash and $ 2,954 in stock (105,315 Ordinary shares). The acquisition has been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired has been recorded as goodwill which is amortized using the straight-line method over an average of eight and a half years. (see also Note 2u). The Company recorded an expense in the amount of $ 2,802 which represents the estimated value of the software acquired for which technological feasibility has not yet been established and for which no alternative future use exists ("in process research and development write-off"). BBP's financial statements are consolidated with those of the Company commencing with the second quarter of 1999. F-9 FUNDTECH LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (U.S. dollars in thousands) NOTE 1:- GENERAL (Cont.) The estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition are summarized as follows: Working capital deficiency $ (578) Deferred income taxes (149) Property and equipment 701 In process research and development 2,802 Technology 3,390 Goodwill 7,797 ----------- $ 13,963 =========== See also Note 2(j) - for reallocation of the purchase price during 2000. 2. On September 30, 1999, the Company acquired through its wholly-owned subsidiary (FCMS, LLC) certain assets and certain liabilities of Sterling Commerce, Inc., a U.S. company engaged in the field of electronic data interchange, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $ 6,982. The acquisition has been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly the purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of net assets acquired has been recorded as goodwill which is being amortized by the straight-line method over an average of 9.2-year period (see also Note 2u). Sterling's financial statements are consolidated with those of the Company since September 30, 1999. The estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition are summarized as follows: Working capital deficiency $ (642) Property and equipment 300 Technology 1,100 Goodwill 6,224 ------------ $ 6,982 ============ See also Note 2(j) - for reallocation of the purchase price during 2000. c. The following represents the unaudited pro forma results of operations for the year ended December 31, 1999, assuming the 1999 acquisitions occurred on January 1, 1999, excluding the write-off of the acquired in-process research and development. F-10 FUNDTECH LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (U.S. dollars in thousands) NOTE 1:- GENERAL (Cont.) The pro-forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the consolidated results that would have been attained had the acquisition taken place at the beginning of 1999, nor is it necessarily indicative of future results. Year ended December 31, 1999 ------------ Revenues $ 37,957 ========= Net loss $ (696) ========= Basic and diluted net loss per share $ (0.05) ========= d. Restructuring charges - see Note 9a. NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("US GAAP"). a. Use of estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. b. Financial statements in U.S. dollars: A majority of the revenues of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries is generated in U.S. dollars ("dollar" or "dollars"). In addition, a substantial portion of their costs are incurred in dollars. The Company and these subsidiaries' management believes that the dollar is the primary currency of the economic environment in which the Company and these subsidiaries operates. Thus, the functional and reporting currency of the Company and these subsidiaries is the dollar. Accordingly, monetary accounts maintained in currencies other than the dollar are remeasured into U.S. dollars in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 52 "Foreign Currency Translation" ("SFAS No. 52"). All transaction gains and losses from the remeasurement of monetary balance sheet items are reflected in the statements of operations as financial income or expenses, as appropriate. The financial statements of a foreign subsidiary whose functional currency is not the dollar, have been translated into dollars. All balance sheet accounts have been translated using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Statement of operations amounts have been translated using the average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in shareholders' equity. F-11 FUNDTECH LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (U.S. dollars in thousands) NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.) c. Principles of consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. d. Cash equivalents: Cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to cash, with original maturities of three months or less. e. Short-term bank deposits: Bank deposits with maturities of more than three months but less than one year, are included in short-term deposits. The short-term deposits are presented at their cost, including accrued interest. f. Marketable securities: The Company accounts for its investments in marketable securities using Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" ("SFAS No. 115"). Management determines the appropriate classification of its investments in marketable debt and equity securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such determinations at each balance sheet date. Debt securities for which the Company does not have the intent or ability to hold to maturity are classified as available-for-sale, along with any investments in equity securities that have not been classified as "trading securities". As of December 31, 2000 and 2001 all marketable securities covered by SFAS No. 115 were designated as available-for-sale. Accordingly, these securities are stated at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses, reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity, accumulated other comprehensive loss. Realized gains and losses on sales of investments, as determined on a specific identification basis, are included in the consolidated statement of operations. According to the SEC's issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 59 ("SAB 59") management is required to evaluate each period whether a securities' decline in value is other than temporary. As of December 31, 2001, the Company's management evaluation indicated that the decline in available-for-sale marketable securities was other than temporary. Therefore, the Company realized its losses on available-for-sale marketable securities which are included in the statement of operations as impairment and realization of losses on marketable securities. F-12 FUNDTECH LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (U.S. dollars in thousands) NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) g Inventories: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Inventory write-offs are provided to cover risks arising from slow-moving items or technological obsolescence. In 2001, the Company recorded a write-offs expenses in a total amount of $ 22, which are included in the statement of operations as hardware costs, as appropriate. Cost is determined as follows: Finished products - on the basis of direct costs with the addition of allocable indirect costs. h. Long-term trade receivables: Long-term receivables from extended payment agreements (See Note 2m) are recorded at estimated present values determined based on current rates of interest and reported at the net amounts in the accompanying financial statements. Imputed interest is recognized, using the effective interest method as a component of interest income in the accompanying statements. i. Property and equipment: Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, at the following annual rate: % -------------------- Office furniture and equipment 6 - 15 Computers and software 20 - 33 Motor vehicles 15 Leasehold improvements Over the term of the lease The Company and its subsidiaries periodically assess the recoverability of the carrying amount of property and equipment and provide for any possible impairment loss based upon the difference between the carrying amount and fair value of such assets. In accordance with Statements of Financial Accounting Standard No. 121 "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of" ("SFAS No. 121"). As of December 31, 2001, no impairment losses has been identified. j. Goodwill and technology: Goodwill and technology are stated at amortized cost. Amortization is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives at the following annual rates: % ------------- Goodwill 10 - 12 Technology 20 F-13 FUNDTECH LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (U.S. dollars in thousands) NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) The carrying values of goodwill and technology assets are periodically reviewed by management, based on the expected future undiscounted operating cash flows over the remaining goodwill and technology amortization periods. If this review indicates that goodwill and technology will not be recoverable, the carrying value of the goodwill and technology is reduced to estimated fair value. Certain preacquisition contingency reserves were established as of the acquisition dates that are subject to adjustment during the "allocation period" in accordance with Statement of Financial Standard No. 38 "Accounting for Preacquisition Contingencies" ("SFAS No. 38"). The fair value of the net assets acquired from BBP and Sterling have been adjusted to reflect the resolution of these contingencies established relating to certain litigation and liabilities associated with acquired contractual commitments. During 2000, the purchase price reallocation resulted in a total reduction to the fair value of Sterling and BBP acquisitions of approximately $ 1,573 and $ 214, respectively, as well as a corresponding increase to goodwill. k. Income taxes: The Company and its subsidiaries account for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS No. 109"). This Statement prescribes the use of the liability method whereby deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company and its subsidiaries provide a valuation allowance, if necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to their estimated realizable value. l. Revenue recognition: The Company and its subsidiaries generate revenues from licensing the rights to use their software products directly to end-users and, to the lesser extent, indirectly through sub-license fees from resellers, both of whom are considered end users. The Company and its subsidiaries also generate revenues from sales of professional services, including consulting, implementation, training, maintenance and hardware. Revenue from software license agreements are recognized when all criteria outlined in Statement Of Position (SOP) 97-2 "Software Revenue Recognition" (as amended) are met. Therefore, revenue from license fees is recognized when persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, delivery of the product has occurred, no significant obligations with regard to implementation remain, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectibility is probable. F-14 FUNDTECH LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (U.S. dollars in thousands) NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) Where software arrangements involve multiple elements, revenue is allocated to each element based on vendor specific objective evidence ("VSOE") of the relative fair values of each element in the arrangement, in accordance with the "residual method" prescribed by SOP 98-9 "Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition With Respect to Certain Transactions". The Company's VSOE used to allocate the sales price to services and maintenance is based on the price charged when these elements are sold separately. License revenue is recorded based on the residual method. Under the residual method, revenue is recognized for the delivered elements when (1) there is VSOE of the fair values of all the undelivered elements, and (2) all revenue recognition criteria of SOP 97-2, as amended, are satisfied. Under the residual method any discount in the arrangement is allocated to the delivered element. The Company generally does not grant right of return to its customers. The Company generally provides a warranty period for up to six months at no extra charge. No provision is recorded at the time revenues are recognized for estimated warranty costs since according to the Company's experience it is immaterial. SOP 97-2 specifies that extended payment terms in a software licensing arrangement may indicate that the software license fees are not deemed to be fixed or determinable. In addition, if payment of a significant portion of the software license fees is not due until more than twelve months after delivery, the software license fees should be presumed not to be fixed or determinable, and thus should be recognized as the payments become due. However, SOP 97-2 specifies that if the Company has a standard business practice of using extended payment terms in software licensing arrangements and has a history of successfully collecting the software license fees under the original terms of the software licensing arrangement without making concessions, the Company overcomes the presumption that the software license fees are not fixed or determinable. Thus, the Company should recognize the software license fees when all other SOP 97-2 revenue recognition criteria are met. The Company has concluded that for certain software arrangements with extended payment terms, the "fixed or determinable" presumption has been overcome and software license fees have been recognized upon meeting the remaining SOP 97-2 revenue recognition criteria. The present value of such software license fees recognized in fiscal years 1999, 2000 and 2001 totaled approximately $1,700, $ 5,000 and $ 1,883, respectively. When contracts contain hosting services arrangements, the Company applies Emerging Issues Task Force No. 00-03 ("EITF 00-03") "Software Revenue Recognition, to Arrangements That Include the Right to Use Software Stored on Another Entity's Hardware". Arrangements that include professional services are evaluated to determine whether those services are essential to the functionality of other elements of the arrangement. When services are considered essential, revenue under the arrangement is recognized using contract accounting. When services are not considered essential, the revenue allocable to the software services is recognized as the services are performed. F-15 FUNDTECH LTD.

Revenue from software licenses that require significant customization, integration and installation are recognized based on SOP 81-1 "Accounting for Performance of Construction - Type and Certain Production - Type Contracts", using contract accounting on a percentage of completion method, based on the relationship of actual labor costs incurred to total labor costs estimated to be incurred over the duration of the contract. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are first determined, in the amount of the estimated loss on the entire contract. As of December 31, 2001, no such estimated losses were identified. Revenue on arrangements with customers who are not the ultimate users (such as resellers) is not recognized until the product has been delivered to the end user. Revenue from maintenance and services is recognized over the life of the maintenance agreement or at the time that services are rendered. Revenue from hardware sales is recognized in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulleting No. 101 ("SAB No. 101") as amended, when persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectibility is probable. Deferred revenues include unearned amounts received under maintenance and support contracts and amounts billed to customers but not yet recognized as revenues. m. Severance pay: The Company's liability for severance pay is calculated pursuant to Israeli severance pay law based on the most recent salary of the employees multiplied by the number of years of employment, as of the balance sheet date. Employees are entitled to one month's salary for each year of employment or a portion thereof. The Company's liability for all of its employees is fully provided for by monthly deposits with insurance policies and by an accrual. The value of these policies is recorded as an asset in the Company's balance sheet. The deposited funds include profits accumulated up to the balance sheet date. The deposited funds may be withdrawn only upon the fulfillment of the obligation pursuant to Israeli severance pay law or labor agreements. The value of the deposited funds is based on the cash surrender value of these policies, including immaterial profits. Severance expenses for the years ended December 31, 1999, 2000 and 2001, amounted to approximately $ 143, $ 74 and $ 89, respectively. F-16 FUNDTECH LTD.

Software development costs: Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 86 "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed," ("SFAS No. 86") requires capitalization of certain software development costs subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility. Based on the Company and its subsidiaries' product development process, technological feasibility is established upon completion of a detailed program design. Costs incurred by the Company and its subsidiaries in certain projects between completion of the detailed program design and the point at which the product is ready for general release have been capitalized. Capitalized development costs are not yet amortized as the products are not ready for general release for customers. o. Royalties-bearing grants: The Company received royalty-bearing grants from the Israeli Fund for Encouragement of Marketing Activity. These grants are recognized at the time the Company is entitled to such grants on the basis of the costs incurred and included as a deduction of selling and marketing expenses. Selling and marketing grants amounted to $ 0, $ 180 and $ 0 in 1999, 2000 and 2001, respectively. p. Concentration of credit risks: Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company and its subsidiaries to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, short-term bank deposits marketable securities, trade receivables and long-term trade receivables. The Company's cash and cash equivalents and short-term bank deposits are invested mainly in deposits with major banks in Israel, Europe and the United States. Such deposits in the United States may be in excess of insured limits and are not insured in other jurisdiction. Management believes that the financial institutions that hold the Company and its subsidiaries' investments are financially sound and, accordingly, minimal credit risk exists with respect to these investments. The Company marketable securities includes investments in mutual funds of U.S. corporations. As of December 31, 2001, the Company provided for impairment and realized losses on available-for-sale marketable securities totaling $ 7,826. F-17 FUNDTECH LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (U.S. dollars in thousands) NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) The trade receivables and long-term trade receivables of the Company and its subsidiaries include banks and large financial institutions. The Company and its subsidiaries generally do not require collateral; however, in certain circumstances, the Company and its subsidiaries may require letters of credit, other collateral or additional guarantees. An allowance for doubtful accounts is determined with respect to those amounts that the Company and its subsidiaries have determined to be doubtful of collection. The Company and its subsidiaries perform ongoing credit evaluations of its customers (see Note 4). The Company has no off-balance sheet concentration of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, option contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements. q. Basic and diluted net earnings (loss) per share: Basic net earnings (loss) per share is computed based on the weighted average number of Ordinary shares outstanding during each year. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of Ordinary shares outstanding during each year, plus dilutive potential Ordinary shares considered outstanding during the year, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" ("SFAS No. 128"). In 1999, 2000 and 2001, outstanding stock options and warrants have been excluded from the calculation of the diluted net earnings net per Ordinary share because all such securities are anti-dilutive for all periods presented. The total weighted average number of shares related to the outstanding options and warrants excluded from the calculations of diluted net earnings (loss) per share was 1,355,421, 543,120 and 398,428, for the years ended December 31, 1999, 2000 and 2001, respectively (see Note 12). s. Accounting for stock-based compensation: The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB No. 25") and FASB Interpretation No. 44 "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation" ("FIN 44") in accounting for its employee stock option plans. Under APB No. 25, when the exercise price of the Company's options are less than the market price of the underlying shares on the date of grant, compensation expense is recognized. The pro forma disclosures, required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS No. 123"), are provided in Note 11d. The Company applies SFAS No. 123 and EITF 96-18 "Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services" with respect to options and warrants issued to non-employees. SFAS No. 123 requires use of an option valuation model to measure the fair value of the options at the grant date. F-18 FUNDTECH LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (U.S. dollars in thousands) NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) s. Fair value of financial instruments: The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company and its subsidiaries in estimating their fair value disclosures for financial instruments: The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, short-term bank deposits, trade receivable and trade payables approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturity of such instruments. The fair value of marketable securities is based on quoted market price (see Note 3). The fair value of long-term receivables is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates of which similar credits would be made to customers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. The carrying amount of long-term trade receivables approximates their fair value since the interest rate which was used in order to discount future cash flows remained unchanged. t. Reclassification: Certain prior years amounts have been reclassified in conformity with current year's financial statement. u. Impact of recently issued accounting standards: In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations" and No. 142, "Goodwill and other Intangible Assets" ("the Statements"), effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Under the new rules, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives will no longer be amortized but will be subject to annual impairment tests in accordance with the Statements. Other intangible assets will continue to be amortized over their useful lives. The Company will apply the new rule beginning in the first quarter of 2002. Application of the non-amortization provisions of the Statement is expected to result in an increase in net income of approximately $ 2,500 per year, before the effect of any impairment test as described next. During 2002, the Company will perform the first of the required impairment tests of goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets. The Company can not yet estimate what the effect, if any, of these tests will be on its financial position and results of operations. F-19 FUNDTECH LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (U.S. dollars in thousands) NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS No. 144"), which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and superseded SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Dispensed Of", and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations for a Disposal of a Segment of a Business". SFAS No. 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, with earlier application encouraged.

All marketable securities are mutual funds issued by an investment bank in the U.S. b. As of December 31, 2001 due to the market conditions, and since the Company's management believes that the decline in the fair value is other than temporary, the cost basis of these securities was written down to fair value as a new cost basis. During the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company sold approximately 86% of its investment in marketable securities. As of December 31, 2001 an impairment and realized losses on available-for-sale marketable securities amounting to $ 7,826 was included in earnings. c. During 1999, one of the Company's subsidiaries sold trading securities in the amount of $ 1,176. The total realized loss from these securities amounted to $ 19 and was charged to financial expenses.

Restructuring costs: The restructuring was accounted for in accordance with EITF 94-3 "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Cost to Exit and Activity (Including Certain Costs Included in a Restructuring) and in accordance with SAB 100 "Restructuring and Impairment Charges". The Plan consisted of employee termination benefits associated with the involuntary termination of 89 employees (71 research and development and professional services employees, 13 administrative employees and 5 selling and marketing employees) and sublet portions of their existing office space. As part of the plan, the Company also consolidated aspects of its Dallas operations into its existing Atlanta operations in order to improve efficiency and eliminate duplicate cost structures. Through the second quarter of 2001, the Plan and the benefit arrangement were communicated to employees. The communication of the benefit arrangement includes sufficient detail to enable employees to determine the type and amount of benefits they will receive if they are terminated. The restructuring Plan was substantially completed by January 2002.

Write-off of other accounts receivable: In 2000 and 2001, the Company incurred expenses on behalf of new ventures in the amount of approximately $ 924 and $ 111, respectively. It was agreed between the investors that such expenses would be reimbursed upon the formation of the new entities, therefore such expenses in 2000 were recorded as other accounts receivable. In April 2001 the Company and the other investor decided not to proceed with the formation of the new entities. Accordingly, the Company wrote-off the related other account receivable.

Measurement of taxable income under the Israeli Income Tax Law (Inflationary Adjustments), 1985: Results for tax purposes are measured in real terms of earnings in NIS after certain adjustments for increases in the Israeli Customer Price Index. As explained in Note 2b, the financial statements are measured in U.S. dollars. The difference between the annual change in the CPI and in the NIS/dollar exchange rate causes a difference between taxable income and the income before taxes shown in the financial statements. In accordance with paragraph 9(f) of SFAS No. 109, the Company has not provided deferred income taxes on this difference between the reporting currency and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. b. Tax benefits under the Israeli Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 1959: The Company has been granted in November 1995 the status of an "Approved Enterprise", under the Israeli Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 1959 (the "Investment Law") and the Company has elected the alternative benefits program, waiver of grants in return for tax exemptions. Pursuant thereto, the income of the Company derived from the "Approved Enterprise" program is tax-exempt for two years commencing with the year it first earns taxable income relating to each expansion program, and subject to corporate taxes at the reduced rate of 10% to 25%, for an additional eight years, (subject to an adjustment based upon the foreign investors' ownership of the Company). The Company completed its investment according to certain of its first program on November 27, 1997. Income derived from this program was tax exempt for two years commencing in 1998 and will enjoy a reduced tax of 10% to 25% for eight years ending in 2005 (subject to an adjustment based upon the foreign investors' ownership of the Company). In 1998, the Company received approval for its first expansion program of its "Approved Enterprise". In 2000, the Company received approval for its second expansion program of its "Approved Enterprise". Income derived from the expansion programs will be tax-exempt for a period of two years and will be subject to a reduced tax rate as mentioned above for an additional period of eight years. The aforementioned benefits are in respect of the taxable income that the Company derives from the expansion programs. The period of benefits for these programs has not yet commenced since no income was derived. The period of tax benefits detailed above is subject to limits of 12 years from the year of commencement of production, or 14 years from the date of granting the approval, whichever is earlier. F-29 FUNDTECH LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (U.S. dollars in thousands) NOTE 13: - INCOME TAXES (Cont.) The tax-exempt profits that will be earned by the Company's "Approved Enterprise" can be distributed to shareholders, without imposing tax liability on the Company only upon the complete liquidation of the Company. As of December 31, 2001, retained earnings included approximately $ 4,597 in tax exempt income earned by the Company's "Approved Enterprise". The Company has decided to permanently reinvest its tax exempt income. Accordingly, no deferred income taxes have been provided on income attributable to the Company's "Approved Enterprise". If these retained tax-exempt profits are distributed in a manner other than in the complete liquidation of the Company, they would be taxed at the corporate tax rate applicable to such profits as if the Company had not elected the alternative tax benefits (currently between 10% to 25% for an "Approved Enterprise"). The Investment Law also grants entitlement to claim accelerated depreciation on equipment used by the "Approved Enterprise" during five tax years. The entitlement to the above benefits is conditional upon the Company fulfilling the conditions stipulated by the above law, regulations published thereunder and the instruments of approval for the specific investments in "approved enterprises". In the event of failure to comply with these conditions, the benefits may be canceled and the Company may be required to refund the amount of the benefits, in whole or in part, including interest. The Company expects that during the period in which these tax losses are utilized, its income would be substantially tax exempt. Accordingly, there will be no tax benefit available from such losses and no deferred income taxes have been included in these financial statements. Income not eligible for "Approval Enterprise" benefits mentioned above is taxed at the regular rate of 36%. c. Tax benefits under the Israeli Law for the Encouragement of Industry (Taxation), 1969: The Company is an "industrial company" under the Law for the Encouragement of Industry (Taxation), 1969 and, therefore, it is entitled to certain tax benefits, including accelerated rates of depreciation and deduction of public offering expenses. d. Net operating losses carryforwards: As of December 31, 2001, the Company had approximately $ 5,850 of Israeli net operating loss carryforwards. The Israeli loss carryforwards have no expiration date. As of December 31, 2001, Fundtech Corporation had a U.S. federal net operating loss carryforward of approximately $ 36,344 which can be carried forward and offset against taxable income for 10-15 years and expire in 2010-2016. Utilization of U.S. net operating losses may be subject to the substantial annual limitation due to the "change in ownership" provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and similar state provisions. The annual limitation may result in the expiration of net operating losses before utilization. As of December 31, 2001 BBP had a Swiss net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $ 490, which can be offset against taxable income for a period of up to 7 years. F-30 FUNDTECH LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (U.S. dollars in thousands) NOTE 13: - INCOME TAXES (cont.) e. Deferred income taxes: Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company and its subsidiaries assets are as follows.

Management currently believes that since the Company and its subsidiaries have a history of losses, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax regarding the loss carryforwards and other temporary differences will not be realized in the foreseeable future. The Company's deferred tax asset composed of net operating loss carryforwards of BBP is included in other accounts receivable. g.
