PART II
Information Required in the Registration Statement
Item 3. Incorporation of Documents by Reference
Computron Software, Inc. (the "Registrant") hereby incorporates by
reference into this Registration Statement the following documents previously
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"):
(a) The Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 1997.
(b) The Registrant's Current Report on Form 8-K, dated January 13,
1998.
(c) The Registrant's Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed with
the SEC on November 10, 1997, pursuant to Section 12(b) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, amended (the "1934 Act"), in
which there is described the terms, rights and provisions
applicable to the Registrant's outstanding Common Stock.
All reports and definitive proxy or information statements filed
pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act after the date of
this Registration Statement and prior to the filing of a post-effective
amendment which indicates that all securities offered hereby have been sold or
which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold shall be deemed to be
incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement and to be a part
hereof from the date of filing of such documents. Any statement contained in a
document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be
deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement
to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any subsequently filed
document which also is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or
supersedes such statement. Any such statement so modified or superseded shall
not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this
Registration Statement.
Item 4. Description of Securities
Not Applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel
Not Applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
The General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware ("DGCL")
permits the Company and its stockholders to limit directors' exposure to
liability for certain breaches of the directors' fiduciary duty, either in a
suit on behalf of the Company or in an action by stockholders of the Company.
The Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (the
"Charter") eliminates the personal liability of directors to stockholders or the
Company for monetary damages arising out of the directors' breach of their
fiduciary duty of care. The Charter also authorizes the Company to indemnify its
directors, officers or employees with respect to certain costs, expenses, and
amounts incurred in connection with an action, suit, or proceeding by reason of
the fact that such person was serving as a director, officer or employee of the
Company or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer,
employee, partner or agent of another entity. The Charter permits the Company to
indemnify its officers, directors and employees to the fullest extent possible
under the DGCL.
The Company maintains a standard form of officers' and
directors' liability insurance policy which provides coverage to the officers
and directors of the Company for certain liabilities, including certain
liabilities which may arise out of this Registration Statement.
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed
Not Applicable.

Item 9. Undertakings
A. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: (1) to file, during
any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment
to this Registration Statement (i) to include any prospectus required by Section
10(a)(3) of the 1933 Act, (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events
arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most
recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this
Registration Statement and (iii) to include any material information with
respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this
Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this
Registration Statement; provided, however, that clauses (1)(i) and (1)(ii) shall
not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective
amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the
Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that are
incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement; (2) that for the
purpose of determining any liability under the 1933 Act each such post-effective
amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein and the offering of such securities at that time
shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof and (3) to remove
from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities
being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the Registrant's 1995
Stock Option Plan.
B. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each filing of the Registrant's
annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that is
incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
C. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the 1933
Act may be permitted to directors, officers or controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act, and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets
all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8, and has duly caused this
Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto
duly authorized, in the City of Rutherford, State of New Jersey, on this 9th day
of April, 1998.
