                          (a development stage company)
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.       Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements reflect all the adjustments (consisting
only of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and operating
results for the interim periods. These statements should be read in conjunction
with the consolidated financial statements and notes in Buzzsaw.com, Inc.'s
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2000 and the periods from
inception (August 19, 1999) to December 31, 1999 and 2000. The results for the
six months ended June 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results for
the entire fiscal year ended December 31, 2001, in part due to the subsequent
event discussed below.

2.       Nonrecurring charges
During the six months ended June 30, 2001, Buzzsaw.com recorded nonrecurring
charges totaling $8.9 million, which resulted from additional purchase
consideration paid to the shareholders of PageMasters, Inc. ($7.4 million) and a
corporate restructuring which resulted from Buzzsaw.com's efforts to reduce
operating expenditures ($1.5 million).

Of the $1.5 million of corporate restructuring costs, $0.4 million related to
termination and other employee costs associated with the elimination of 83
positions and $1.1 million related to office closure costs. Employee termination
costs included wage continuation and medical and other benefits. Office closure
costs included losses on operating lease payments and the write-off of leasehold
improvements and equipment. Through June 30, 2001, Buzzsaw.com paid $0.8 million
of the corporate restructuring charges. As a result, at June 30, 2001, the
remaining liability related to the corporate restructuring charges was
$0.7 million.

On March 27, 2000 Buzzsaw.com acquired the assets of PageMasters, Inc., a
privately held company. Of the purchase price totaling $4.9 million, $1.1
million was allocated to in-process research and development. For further
discussion of the PageMasters, Inc. acquisition, see the Audited Financial
Statements of Buzzsaw.com, Inc. (a development stage company) as of December 31,
2000 and 1999, and for the year ended December 31, 2000 and the periods from the
inception (August 19, 1999) to December 31, 1999 and 2000, included as Exhibit
99.1 to this Form 8K/A.

3.       Subsequent Event
On August 20, 2001, Autodesk, Inc. (the "Registrant") acquired the remaining
outstanding stock of Buzzsaw.com, Inc., a Delaware corporation, for $15.0
million in cash plus the assumption of $13.3 million of liabilities. As of the
date of the acquisition, the Registrant held a 40 percent interest in
Buzzsaw.com, Inc.

                                                                               7




ITEM 7 (B) - PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements of
Autodesk, Inc. ("Autodesk") have been prepared to give effect to the acquisition
of Buzzsaw.com, Inc. ("Buzzsaw") using the purchase method of accounting. The
historical financial information has been derived from the historical financial
statements of Autodesk and Buzzsaw and should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and the related notes for Buzzsaw which are included in
Exhibit 99.1 of this Form 8-K filing.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet assumes the merger took
place as of July 31, 2001 and allocates the total purchase cost of the fair
values of the assets and liabilities of Buzzsaw based on a preliminary
valuation.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations assume that
the acquisition took place as of the beginning of each of the periods presented
and combine Autodesk's unaudited condensed statement of income for the six
months ended July 31, 2001 and the historical consolidated statement of income
for the year ended January 31, 2001 and Buzzsaw's unaudited condensed statement
of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and the historical
condensed statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2000,
respectively.

The total estimated purchase cost of Buzzsaw has been allocated on a preliminary
basis to assets and liabilities based on management's estimates of their fair
value. This allocation resulted in negative goodwill which was applied
proportionately to reduce the carrying values of Buzzsaw's long-lived assets to
zero.

The unaudited pro forma financial information is presented for illustrative
purposes only. It is not necessarily indicative of the operating results or
financial position that would have occurred if the acquisition had been
consummated as of the dates indicated, nor is it necessarily indicative of
future operating results or financial position.

                                                                               8

                                 AUTODESK, INC.
           NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.       Principles of Presentation

On August 20, 2001, Autodesk, Inc. acquired the remaining outstanding stock of
Buzzsaw.com, Inc., a Delaware corporation, for $15.0 million in cash plus the
assumption of $13.3 million of liabilities. As of the date of the acquisition,
Autodesk held a 40 percent interest in Buzzsaw.com, Inc.

The preliminary allocation of the purchase price resulted in negative goodwill
of approximately $11.0 million as of August 20, 2001. In accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, "Business Combinations,"
the carrying values of Buzzsaw.com's long-lived assets were reduced
proportionately to the extent of the negative goodwill balance. These
adjustments were reflected in the Pro Forma Adjustments column of the
accompanying pro forma statements. However, the pro forma adjustments were based
on a higher negative goodwill balance as a result of using Buzzsaw.com's June
30, 2001 balance sheet.

The pro forma balance sheet assumes the merger took place as of July 31, 2001
and allocates the total purchase cost of the fair values of the assets and
liabilities of Buzzsaw.com based on a preliminary valuation.

The pro forma statements of operations assume that the acquisition took place as
of the beginning of each of the periods presented and combine Autodesk's
unaudited condensed statement of income for the six months ended July 31, 2001
and the historical consolidated statement of income for the year ended January
31, 2001 and Buzzsaw.com's unaudited condensed statement of operations for the
six months ended June 30, 2001 and the historical condensed statement of
operations for the year ended December 31, 2000, respectively.

Due to the different fiscal year ends, Buzzsaw.com's July 2001 results of
operations were excluded from the accompanying pro forma statements.
Buzzsaw.com's actual results for the month of July 2001, were as follows:

                                                       Month ended July 31, 2001
                                                       -------------------------
           Net revenues                                       $     604
           Net loss                                               4,374


This financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only. It is
not necessarily indicative of the operating results or financial position that
would have occurred if the acquisition had been consummated as of the dates
described above, nor is it necessarily indicative of Autodesk's consolidated
future operating results or financial position. No attempt has been made to
quantify in the pro forma statements the incremental net revenue and reduced
costs and expenses that may result from the business combination.

2.       Adjustments to the Pro Forma Statements of Operations

The following adjustments are incorporated in the pro forma statements of
operations:

A    Adjust depreciation and amortization to reflect revised carrying values of
     fixed assets and purchased intangibles, resulting from the allocation of
     negative goodwill.

B    Adjust the income tax provision to consider the deductibility of
     Buzzsaw.com's losses when combined with Autodesk's pre-tax income.

C    Reverse equity in net loss of affiliate, which represents Autodesk's
     proportionate share of Buzzsaw.com's losses.

                                                                              12



                                 AUTODESK, INC.
    NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)

3.       Adjustments to the Pro Forma Balance Sheets

The following adjustments are incorporated in the pro forma balance sheets:

D    To reflect the cash consideration paid for the acquisition.

E    To reflect the allocation of the purchase price consideration and the
     allocation of negative goodwill resulting from the fair value of
     Buzzsaw.com's net assets exceeding the total purchase consideration.

F    To reflect the deferred tax asset generated from the expected future
     utilization of Buzzsaw.com's net operating losses that Autodesk expects to
     realize and to reflect the tax effect of the temporary differences
     resulting from the allocation of purchase price.

G    To reflect the reversal of Buzzsaw.com losses that Autodesk recognized in
     excess of its initial investment in Buzzsaw.com since the formation of
     Buzzsaw.com in August 1999.

H    To reflect direct transaction costs which have been included as part of the
     purchase consideration.

I    To reflect the fair value adjustments resulting from the allocation of the
     purchase price consideration.

J    To reflect the elimination of redeemable convertible preferred stock.

K    To reflect the elimination of Buzzsaw.com's stockholders' deficit and the
     reversal of Buzzsaw.com losses that Autodesk recognized in excess of its
     initial investment in Buzzsaw.com since the formation of Buzzsaw.com in
     August 1999 and the goodwill existing on Buzzsaw.com's balance sheet at the
     acquisition date.

4.       Recent Events

In an effort to reduce operating costs and expenses, Buzzsaw.com eliminated 141
positions (55% of its workforce) between January 1, 2001 and August 20, 2001. Of
the total number of positions eliminated, 58 were eliminated in August 2001.

Additionally, Autodesk recently decided to close Buzzsaw.com's headquarters
office in San Francisco, California, and move the Buzzsaw.com employees to a new
Autodesk office location, which is also in San Francisco.

As a result of these recent events, Autodesk believes that Buzzsaw.com's future
on-going operating losses will be significantly less than what Buzzsaw.com
historically incurred. As such, management does not believe that the
accompanying pro forma financial information is indicative of Autodesk's future
combined operating results or financial position.

                                                                              13
