PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

You should read the entire prospectus carefully, especially the risks of
investing in our common stock discussed under "Risk Factors" and our financial
statements and related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus.

OUR COMPANY

We believe that the following factors are driving the growth of our
server-based computing and ASP services:

- the increasing complexity of software applications, the constant need to
upgrade software applications and the growing demand for faster software
integration and deployment, which necessitate more centralized
information management systems,

- the scarcity of information technology professionals, making it expensive
and difficult for companies to operate and manage software on their own,

- the decline in telecommunication costs and the increasing availability of
bandwidth, making it less costly to connect remote users to a central
data center,

- the growing demand for remote and shared access to software applications,
and

- the increasing number of software applications and types of computer
devices requiring integration expertise that is not available to, or is
increasingly expensive for, many companies.

Our goal is to provide our ASP services with the speed, simplicity and
reliability of a utility service. By outsourcing all or part of their
information technology needs, our customers can reduce their information
technology staff and focus on their core competencies. Our secure, reliable and
high-performance system for delivering software applications to multiple users
over a variety of hardware systems provides a flexible, cost-effective solution
for our customers.

OUR ADDRESS AND TELEPHONE NUMBER

The address of our principal executive office is 2 South Pointe Drive, Lake
Forest, California 92630. Our telephone number is (949) 672-3000. Our website

THE OFFERING

Common stock being offered by
Selling Stockholders................ 3,025,350 shares

Common stock outstanding after this
offering............................ 68,240,312 shares

Nasdaq National Market symbol....... FTRL

The total number of shares outstanding after the offering is based on
67,913,524 shares outstanding as of August 30, 2000 and 326,788 shares of common
stock offered for sale by this prospectus which we have assumed to be
outstanding. These 326,788 shares of common stock are issuable upon the exercise
of certain stock purchase warrants which contain anti-dilution provisions and
are exercisable at a range of $1.05 to $24.38 per share at a weighted average
exercise price of $3.30 per share. It excludes:

- Stock options granted under our employee benefit plans to purchase
10,110,776 shares of our common stock outstanding on August 30, 2000 with
a weighted average exercise price of $10.33 per share;

- 7,726,330 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of certain stock
purchase warrants at a weighted average exercise price of $11.84 per
share that contain anti-dilution provisions;

- 1,428,571 shares of common stock relating to the conversion of shares of
Series A preferred stock, subject to anti-dilution provisions, held by
Microsoft Corporation; 1,142,857 shares of common stock relating to
conversion of shares of Series A preferred stock which may be acquired
upon exercise of an outstanding Series A preferred stock warrant at an
exercise price of $7.00 per share that contains anti-dilution provisions;
and

- 2,199,965 shares of common stock relating to the conversion of shares of
one of our subsidiaries issued as part of the purchase price for Charon
Systems Inc., one of our recent acquisitions.

None of the 326,788 shares issuable upon the exercise of common stock
warrants may be sold until the warrants are exercised and the underlying shares
are issued. We do not anticipate that the warrant holders will exercise their
warrants unless and until the market price of our common stock exceeds the
exercise price of their respective warrants.

All of the shares are being offered by selling stockholders, who must
deliver a copy of this prospectus to persons who buy them. The selling
stockholders will probably sell the shares at prevailing market prices, through
broker-dealers, although they are not required to do so. The selling
stockholders will retain all of the proceeds of their sales, except for
commissions they may pay to broker-dealers. We will not receive any money when
they sell. However, we will receive the proceeds from the exercise of the
warrants. We are paying the costs of registering the shares.

SUMMARY CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA

In the table below, we provide you with our actual and pro forma summary
consolidated financial data. We have prepared this information using our
consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1999
and for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 2000.

When you read this summary consolidated financial data, it is important
that you also read our financial statements and our pro forma condensed
consolidated financial information and notes to that financial information
included elsewhere in this prospectus, as well as "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

The pro forma column of the consolidated balance sheet data gives effect to
the following items as if each had occurred at June 30, 2000:

- repayment of $14.7 million of shareholder notes issued to finance our
acquisitions of KNS Holdings Limited, Madison Group Holdings and Charon
Systems Inc.,

- our public offering of common stock completed in July 2000, and

- our $10.0 million private placement of equity securities with Microsoft
Corporation in July 2000.

The pro forma column in the table does not give effect to the proceeds to
us which would result from the exercise of the warrants to purchase 326,788
shares of common stock related to this prospectus.

The pro forma column in the table of consolidated statements of operations
data gives effect to our completed acquisitions as if each had occurred on
January 1, 1999:

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You
should read the following risk factors carefully before purchasing our common
stock. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we
face. Other risks and uncertainties, including those that we do not currently
consider material, may impair our business. If any of the risks discussed below
actually occur, our business, financial condition, operating results or cash
flows could be materially adversely affected. This could cause the trading price
of our common stock to decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

WE INTEND THAT OUR ASP SERVICES WILL BECOME AN INCREASING PERCENTAGE OF OUR
OVERALL BUSINESS. IF WE ARE NOT SUCCESSFUL IN GROWING OUR ASP BUSINESS, OUR
PROSPECTS WILL BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED AND OUR STOCK PRICE MAY DECLINE.

To date, most of our revenues have come from computer consulting, software
integration, hardware installation and training services. Our ASP services were
introduced in March 1999 and are therefore a relatively new line of business for
us. Our business strategy includes the expansion of our ASP services. In the
future, we expect that revenue from ASP services will comprise a greater portion
of our revenue. However, our business plan may not be successful and we may not
be able to increase our ASP revenues. We may not be successful in addressing
these risks, and if we are not successful, our business, results of operations
and financial condition will be materially adversely affected.

BECAUSE WE HAVE A LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY AND OUR BUSINESS MODEL IS STILL
EVOLVING, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY MANAGE OUR BUSINESS OR ACHIEVE
PROFITABILITY.

Our business is new, evolving and unproven, and our range of services
continues to change. In order to achieve our business plan we must:

- convince customers to purchase our ASP services,

- increase awareness and market penetration of our brand,

- attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel,

- maintain our existing, and develop new, relationships with software
providers and vendors,

- raise additional capital, and

- convince customers that we can provide reliable and cost-effective
services.

Because we have a limited operating history and our business model is
evolving, investors will have difficulty evaluating us and our prospects.

OUR PAST FINANCIAL RESULTS MAY NOT BE REPRESENTATIVE OF OUR FUTURE FINANCIAL
RESULTS AND THEREFORE INVESTORS WILL HAVE DIFFICULTY EVALUATING US AND OUR
PROSPECTS.

We commenced our current business plan in September 1998 and since that
time have grown our business rapidly through acquisitions. Because we have grown
through acquisitions, our pro forma financial results cover periods when we did
not control or manage our subsidiaries and may not be indicative of our future
financial results. Investors will have difficulty evaluating us and our
prospects and therefore our stock price may be adversely affected as well as our
ability to raise money in the future.

5
7

WE HAVE A HISTORY OF SUBSTANTIAL LOSSES AND NEGATIVE CASH FLOWS. WE EXPECT THESE
LOSSES AND NEGATIVE CASH FLOWS TO CONTINUE AND INCREASE IN THE FUTURE. IF WE ARE
UNABLE TO MAKE A PROFIT, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO CONTINUE TO OPERATE OUR BUSINESS,
AND YOU MAY LOSE YOUR INVESTMENT.

We have experienced net losses and negative cash flows since we began
implementing our current business plan. We expect that the ongoing
implementation of our current business plan will increase our net losses and our
negative cash flows for the foreseeable future as we invest in personnel,
technology and other assets to support our expected growth. In addition, our
business plan includes expansion through acquisitions. As of June 30, 2000, on a
pro forma basis, we had approximately $269.6 million in goodwill and assembled
work force as a result of our acquisitions. The respective amount from each
acquisition will be amortized over a five year period and will substantially
increase our net losses. In addition, acquisitions are likely to increase our
cash needs. We may not be able to operate profitably in the future or generate
positive cash flows. If we cannot operate profitably or generate positive cash
flows, we may be unable to continue to operate our business, and you may lose
your investment.

IN ORDER TO EXECUTE OUR BUSINESS PLAN, WE WILL NEED TO RAISE ADDITIONAL CAPITAL.
IF WE ARE UNABLE TO RAISE ADDITIONAL CAPITAL, WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ACHIEVE OUR
BUSINESS PLAN AND YOU COULD LOSE YOUR INVESTMENT.

We need to raise additional funds through public or private debt or equity
financings to be able to fully execute our business plan. Any additional capital
raised through the sale of equity may dilute your ownership interest. We may not
be able to raise additional funds on favorable terms, or at all. If we are
unable to obtain additional funds, we will be unable to execute our business
plan and you could lose your investment.

IF ALL OR A SUBSTANTIAL PORTION OF THE SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK OFFERED FOR
SALE BY THIS PROSPECTUS ARE SOLD IN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME, OUR STOCK PRICE MAY
BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED. OUR STOCK PRICE MAY ALSO BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED BY THE
PERCEPTION THAT SUCH SALES COULD OCCUR.

We cannot control when the selling stockholders will sell their shares. If
all or a substantial portion of the common stock offered for sale by this
prospectus is sold in a short period of time, the common stock available for
sale may exceed the demand and the stock price may be adversely affected. In
addition, the mere perception that such sales could occur may depress the price
of our common stock.

WE HAVE GRANTED REGISTRATION RIGHTS TO CERTAIN OF OUR STOCKHOLDERS RELATING TO A
SUBSTANTIAL PORTION OF OUR SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OUTSTANDING AND SHARES OF
COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF WARRANTS OR UPON CONVERSION OF OTHER
CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES AND WE EXPECT TO GRANT SIMILAR REGISTRATION RIGHTS IN
CONNECTION WITH FUTURE PRIVATE PLACEMENTS OF OUR SECURITIES. WE INTEND TO
FULFILL OUR REGISTRATION OBLIGATIONS BY FILING ONE OR MORE REGISTRATION
STATEMENTS WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION AFTER THE DATE OF THIS
PROSPECTUS. IF A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF THESE SHARES REGISTERED FOR SALE BY US
ARE SOLD BY SELLING STOCKHOLDERS OVER A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME, OUR STOCK PRICE
WILL BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED. IN ADDITION, OUR STOCK PRICE MAY ALSO BE ADVERSELY
AFFECTED BY THE PERCEPTION THAT SUCH SALES MAY OCCUR.

As we fulfill our obligation to register shares of our common stock and
shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants and upon
conversion of other convertible securities related to such shares, sales of
substantial portions of such common stock made pursuant to one or more
registration statements over a short period of time will, and the mere
perception that such sales might occur may, depress the price of our common
stock.

THE GROWTH IN DEMAND FOR OUR ASP SERVICES IS HIGHLY UNCERTAIN. THE ASP MARKET
MAY NOT DEVELOP AS WE ANTICIPATE AND, ACCORDINGLY, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO EXPAND
OUR BUSINESS OR OPERATE IT PROFITABLY.

The market for ASP services has only recently begun to develop and is
evolving rapidly. Future demand for these services is highly uncertain. We
believe that many of our potential customers are not

6
8

fully aware of the benefits of ASP services. We must educate potential customers
regarding these benefits and convince them of our ability to provide complete
and reliable services. The market for ASP services may never become viable or
grow further. If the market for our ASP services does not grow or grows more
slowly than we currently anticipate, our business, financial condition and
operating results will be materially adversely affected.

OUR INTERNAL ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL CONTROLS HAVE WEAKNESSES RESULTING
PRIMARILY FROM THE GROWTH OF OUR BUSINESS. IF WE ARE UNABLE TO RECRUIT AND
RETAIN QUALIFIED ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL STAFF, WE MAY CONTINUE TO EXPERIENCE
WEAKNESSES IN THESE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS AND WE THEREFORE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO
PROPERLY EXECUTE OUR BUSINESS PLAN. IF WE CAN NOT PROPERLY EXECUTE OUR PLAN, OUR
BUSINESS, RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION COULD BE MATERIALLY
ADVERSELY AFFECTED.

When auditing our consolidated financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 1999, our independent auditors reported to us conditions they
believed to be material weaknesses in our system of internal accounting and
financial controls related to the financial statement close process and the
reconciliation and analysis of general ledger account balances. In response to
this report, in early 2000 we hired a new vice president controller, financial
reporting manager, assistant controller, and additional subsidiary accounting
personnel. We have begun to identify measures to improve our system of internal
controls, implement more rigorous internal accounting policies, procedures and
controls, and conduct accounting systems training. However, these measures may
not be successful in correcting the noted deficiencies and we may experience
similar or other deficiencies in the future as we continue to further expand our
operations. If we are unable to establish and maintain effective internal
accounting and financial controls, we will not be able to timely and accurately
account for and monitor the operations of our business and we therefore may not
be able to properly execute our business plan, which could materially adversely
affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

PERSONS FORMERLY ASSOCIATED WITH OUR BUSINESS MAY HAVE ENGAGED IN UNLAWFUL
ACTIVITIES DESIGNED TO MANIPULATE OUR STOCK. WE MAY BE SUBJECT TO CRIMINAL AND
CIVIL SANCTIONS, FINES AND PENALTIES BECAUSE OF THEIR ACTIONS. IF WE ARE FOUND
TO HAVE LIABILITY RELATING TO THE ACTIVITIES OF THESE PERSONS, WE MAY HAVE TO
PAY SIGNIFICANT MONETARY FINES AND PENALTIES AND WE COULD BE SUBJECT TO MATERIAL
SANCTIONS THAT WOULD MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECT BOTH OUR STOCK AND OUR ABILITY
TO OPERATE OUR BUSINESS.

In the past, persons formerly associated with us, which may include some of
our former officers and directors, may have engaged in activities as part of an
effort to profit from unlawful trading activity in our stock. As a result, we
may be subject to civil or criminal actions, fines or penalties. If any
proceedings are commenced against us, we will need to spend significant money
and management time in our defense. If a court determined that we participated
in these activities, we could be liable for damages or penalties that would have
a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

WE ARE INVOLVED AND MAY BECOME INVOLVED IN LEGAL PROCEEDINGS WITH FORMER
EMPLOYEES, CONSULTANTS AND SERVICE PROVIDERS WHICH, IF DETERMINED AGAINST US,
COULD CAUSE US TO ISSUE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF OUR SHARES OF COMMON STOCK AND
PAY A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF DAMAGES. THE ISSUANCE OF A SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF
SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK ESPECIALLY IF AT A LARGE DISCOUNT TO THE THEN CURRENT
MARKET PRICE, WILL DILUTE OUR STOCKHOLDERS AND THE PAYMENT OF SIGNIFICANT
DAMAGES WILL MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION AND THEREFORE
OUR ABILITY TO ACHIEVE OUR BUSINESS PLAN.

We are party to one lawsuit by a former consultant to one of our
subsidiaries who seeks damages of approximately $2 million which includes
approximately 50,000 stock options and monetary damages.

In the past, we have entered into contracts with third parties in the
normal course of business and with advisors and consultants based on business
plans that we are no longer pursuing. We believe that those contracts are no
longer effective. However, it is possible that the other parties to those
contracts

7
9

could claim that we did not fulfill our obligations under the contracts. If a
court found that we are obligated under any of those contracts we could be
liable for an undeterminable amount of compensation.

Our stockholders may suffer material dilution if a material number of
options or other securities are awarded. If awarded, the options or securities
may have a strike price that is at a significant discount to the current market
price. All of these litigations are likely to be expensive for us. If such suits
are determined against us and a court awards a material amount of cash damages,
our business, results of operations and financial condition will be materially
adversely affected. In addition, any such litigation could divert management's
attention and resources.

WE HAVE GROWN AND PLAN TO CONTINUE TO GROW, IN PART, THROUGH THE ACQUISITION OF
OTHER COMPANIES. HOWEVER, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY INTEGRATE THE
COMPLETED AND PENDING ACQUISITIONS OR IDENTIFY, ACQUIRE AND SUCCESSFULLY
INTEGRATE FUTURE ACQUISITIONS INTO OUR OWN OPERATIONS, WHICH MAY MATERIALLY
ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR GROWTH AND OUR OPERATING RESULTS.

We have made a number of significant acquisitions in 1999 and 2000. These
acquisitions have increased our revenue from $2.4 million for the year ended
December 31, 1998 to $115.0 million for the year ended December 31, 1999, on a
pro forma basis after giving effect to our completed acquisitions as if each had
occurred as of January 1, 1999. We have not yet fully integrated any of these
companies. We may not be able to successfully integrate these acquisitions into
our business. Our failure to acquire suitable companies or to successfully
integrate any acquired companies into our operations could have a material
adverse effect upon our business, operating results and financial condition.

OUR INDUSTRY IS CHARACTERIZED BY RAPIDLY CHANGING TECHNOLOGY WITH CONTINUOUS
IMPROVEMENTS IN BOTH COMPUTER HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE. IF WE DO NOT RESPOND
EFFECTIVELY AND ON A TIMELY BASIS TO RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE IN OUR INDUSTRY,
WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO EFFECTIVELY SELL OUR SERVICES AND OUR SALES WILL
MATERIALLY DECLINE.

We must continually buy or lease new computer hardware and license new
computer software systems to effectively compete in our industry. In addition,
our software delivery applications must be able to support changes in the
underlying software applications that are delivered to our customers. The rapid
development of new technologies increases the risk that current or new
competitors could develop products or services that would reduce the
competitiveness of our products or services. We rely on software providers to
produce software applications that keep pace with our customers' demands.

We may not successfully develop or adopt new technologies, introduce new
services or enhance our existing services on a timely basis and new
technologies, new services or enhancements we use or develop may never achieve
market acceptance. If we fail to address these developments, we will lose sales
to our competitors and our business, operating results and financial condition
will be materially adversely affected.

OUR CURRENT DATA CENTERS ARE LOCATED IN ONLY FOUR LOCATIONS, IRVINE, CALIFORNIA,
CALGARY AND TORONTO, CANADA, AND NEWBURY, UNITED KINGDOM, WHICH LEAVES US
VULNERABLE TO DISRUPTIONS THAT AFFECT OUR DATA CENTERS. IF ONE OR MORE OF OUR
DATA CENTERS ARE DISRUPTED, WE COULD LOSE OUR CUSTOMERS AND FAIL TO ATTRACT NEW
CUSTOMERS, WHICH COULD MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS, RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.

Our ASP business strategy depends on the consistent performance of our four
data centers located in Irvine, California, Calgary and Toronto, Canada, and
Newbury, United Kingdom. We offer back-up storage of data for customers in the
United States and Canada that elect this service, but do not yet offer this
service for European customers. We plan to develop additional data centers in
the eastern United States and in Europe. However, our current data centers are
vulnerable to interruption from fire, earthquake, flood, power loss,
telecommunications failure, break-ins and other events beyond our control. If a
data center is damaged, a customer storing its data on that data center may lose
its data if it is not

8
10

backed up. If one of our data centers was damaged, the loss of data may affect a
significant portion of our customers. We have experienced periodic systems
disruptions in the past and anticipate that such disruptions will occur in the
future. In the event that we experience significant disruptions that affect one
or more of our data centers, we could lose customers and fail to attract new
customers, and our business, results of operations and financial condition would
be materially adversely affected.

WE RELY ON SOFTWARE APPLICATION AND SOFTWARE SYSTEMS INTEGRATION COMPANIES TO
REFER MANY OF OUR CLIENTS TO US. ANY FAILURE BY THESE THIRD PARTIES TO PROVIDE
US WITH THESE REFERRALS WILL CAUSE OUR SALES TO MATERIALLY DECLINE.

We rely on referrals from software application and technology integrators
for a portion of our business. These software application and technology
integrators refer their customers to us because we can provide an array of
services which complement the products and services they offer. However, these
software application and technology integrators may stop or substantially
diminish referring business to us or they may decide to cooperate with our
competitors and thereby adversely impact or eliminate the amount of referrals
made to us. If these third-party referrals cease or materially decline, our
sales will materially decline and our business, results of operations and
financial condition will be materially adversely affected.

WE MUST LICENSE THE SOFTWARE APPLICATIONS WE PROVIDE TO OUR CUSTOMERS FROM THIRD
PARTIES. IF WE CANNOT OBTAIN THESE SOFTWARE APPLICATIONS WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO
OFFER ASP SERVICES.

We depend on third-party software manufacturers agreeing to allow their
software applications to be hosted or run at our data centers and provided to
our customers. We have entered into non-exclusive agreements with Microsoft,
Onyx, Great Plains, SalesLogix and others that allow us to host some of their
software applications at our data centers or re-license their software
applications to our customers. Under most of these agreements, the software
manufacturer can terminate its relationship with us for any reason by giving us
as little as 30 days notice. In these instances, the software manufacturer is
not liable to us or our customers for any damages resulting from termination. If
our relationships with these software manufacturers are terminated or if these
or other software manufacturers do not allow our customers to obtain a license
to operate the software application on our data centers, our business, operating
results and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

IF WE ARE UNABLE TO OBTAIN CITRIX OR MICROSOFT PRODUCTS, AS WELL AS OTHER KEY
HARDWARE COMPONENTS AND SOFTWARE APPLICATIONS FROM OTHER VENDORS, WE WOULD BE
UNABLE TO DELIVER OUR SERVICES, AND UNTIL WE REPLACE THESE PRODUCTS, OUR
BUSINESS WOULD BE MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECTED.

We depend on third-party suppliers to provide us with key hardware
components and software applications for our infrastructure and with sufficient
communications lines to allow our customers to access their software
applications. Some components or applications are only available from limited
sources. Citrix Systems, Inc. and Microsoft Corporation are our key suppliers of
software that we utilize to connect our customers to software applications.
Although there are other competing software applications on the market, we
believe that Citrix software, deployed with Windows NT Terminal Server software
from Microsoft, is currently best suited to serve this function. If we are
unable to obtain these products or services such as telecommunications services
from other vendors, in a timely manner, at an acceptable cost or at all, we
would be unable to deliver our services. Until we replace these products, our
business, results from operations and financial condition will be materially
adversely affected.

IF THE SOFTWARE WE UTILIZE CONTAINS DEFECTS, OUR CUSTOMERS' SERVICE COULD BE
DISRUPTED AND THEIR DATA COULD BE LOST. THIS COULD RESULT IN OUR INCURRING
LIABILITY AND LOSING CUSTOMERS FOR OUR SERVICES, WHICH WOULD HAVE A MATERIAL
ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR OPERATIONS.

Our service offerings depend on complex software which may contain defects,
particularly when first introduced or when new versions are released. Although
we test software applications prior to deployment,
9
11

we may not discover software defects that affect our new or current services or
enhancements until after they are deployed. These defects could cause service
interruptions or data loss which could damage our reputation or increase our
service costs, cause us to lose revenue, delay market acceptance or divert our
development resources. Any software modifications we perform as part of our
integration services could cause problems in application delivery. Also, because
we offer a one-source solution to our customers, they are likely to hold us
accountable for any problems associated with their software, even if the problem
results from software defects the manufacturer causes. Typically, software
manufacturers disclaim liability for any damages suffered as a result of
software defects or provide only limited warranties. As a result, we may have no
recourse against the providers of defective software applications.

BREACHES OF OUR SECURITY COULD DISRUPT THE OPERATION OF OUR DATA CENTERS AND
JEOPARDIZE OUR SECURE TRANSMISSION OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. THESE BREACHES
COULD CAUSE OUR CUSTOMERS TO LOSE CONFIDENCE IN OUR SERVICES AND CANCEL THEIR
CONTRACTS WITH US OR PROSPECTIVE CUSTOMERS NOT TO PURCHASE OUR SERVICES.

The growth of our business depends upon our ability to securely transmit
confidential information to and from our data centers or the servers of our
customers. Despite our design and implementation of a variety of delivery system
security measures, unauthorized access, computer viruses and accidental or
intentional disturbances could occur. We may need to devote substantial capital
and resources to protect against the threat of unauthorized penetration of our
delivery system or to remedy any problems that the penetration of our delivery
system security creates. The occurrence of any of these events could cause us to
lose customers and expose us to liability, all of which could have a material
adverse effect on us.

MANY OF OUR CONSULTING CONTRACTS HAVE FIXED PRICES, WHICH EXPOSE US TO COST
OVERRUNS. IF WE ARE NOT ABLE TO CONTROL COST OVERRUNS, OUR OPERATING RESULTS
COULD BE MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECTED.

We undertake certain consulting projects on a fixed-price basis rather than
billing on a time and materials basis or on a per employee or user basis. The
failure to complete these projects without cost overruns would cause our
expenses to increase and materially adversely affect our business, operating
results and financial condition.

OUR ASP SERVICE CONTRACTS GUARANTEE CERTAIN SERVICE LEVELS. IF WE DO NOT MEET
SUCH SERVICE LEVELS, WE MAY BE REQUIRED TO GIVE OUR CUSTOMERS CREDIT FOR FREE
SERVICE AND OUR CUSTOMERS MAY BE ENTITLED TO CANCEL THEIR ASP SERVICE CONTRACTS,
WHICH COULD MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS.

Our ASP contracts contain service level guarantees which obligate us to
provide our hosted applications at a guaranteed level of performance. To the
extent we fail to meet those service levels, we may be obligated to provide our
customers credit for free service. If we continue to fail to meet these service
levels, our ASP customers have the right to cancel their contracts with us.
These credits or cancellations will cost us money, damage our reputation with
our customers and prospective customers and could materially adversely affect
our business, results of operations and financial condition.

IF WE ARE UNABLE TO RETAIN OUR KEY EMPLOYEES AT ALL LEVELS OF OUR BUSINESS, WE
WILL NOT BE ABLE TO GROW OUR BUSINESS AND MEET OUR BUSINESS PLAN. IF WE FAIL TO
ACHIEVE OUR BUSINESS PLAN WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO CONTINUE TO OPERATE OUR
BUSINESS AND YOU MAY LOSE YOUR INVESTMENT.

Our success depends in significant part on the continued services of our
key employees. Losing one or more of our key personnel will seriously impair our
ability or could cause us to fail to successfully implement our business plan.
This will have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations
and financial condition and you could lose your investment.

WE OPERATE IN AN INDUSTRY WHERE IT IS DIFFICULT TO ATTRACT AND RETAIN QUALIFIED
PERSONNEL. IF WE ARE UNABLE TO ATTRACT AND RETAIN QUALIFIED PERSONNEL, OUR
OPERATIONS WOULD SUFFER AND WE COULD LOSE OUR CUSTOMERS OR FAIL TO ATTRACT NEW
CUSTOMERS.

Our business is labor-intensive, and our success depends in large part upon
our ability to attract, develop, motivate and retain highly skilled personnel.
We have grown from over 100 employees as of December 31, 1998 to 683 as of
October 19, 2000. We believe that we will need to hire additional qualified
technical employees and experienced sales personnel. These employees are in
great demand and are likely to remain a limited resource for the foreseeable
future. We may not be able to engage the services of such personnel or retain
our current personnel. If we do not succeed in attracting new, qualified
personnel or successfully retain our current personnel, our business could
suffer.

MANY COMPANIES USE THE NAME "FUTURELINK." INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFRINGEMENT
CLAIMS AGAINST US FOR THE USE OF THE "FUTURELINK" NAME, EVEN IF WITHOUT MERIT,
COULD BE EXPENSIVE TO DEFEND AND DIVERT MANAGEMENT'S ATTENTION FROM OUR
BUSINESS. IF A CLAIM TO STOP US FROM USING OUR NAME IS SUCCESSFUL, WE WILL HAVE
TO EITHER BUY THE RIGHT TO USE OUR NAME OR CHANGE OUR NAME, WHICH IN EITHER CASE
MAY BE EXPENSIVE.

We are aware that other companies have claimed prior use of the name
"FutureLink" for products or services similar to our own. We are in the process
of investigating the rights, if any, others may have to the name. In addition,
we are attempting to register "FutureLink" as a service mark in the United
States, Canada and the United Kingdom. However, we may not be able to obtain
proprietary rights to the use of this name. We will incur expenses if called to
defend our use of the "FutureLink" name. Any litigation, even if without merit,
may be time consuming and expensive to defend. It also could divert management's
attention and resources and require us to enter into costly royalty or licensing
agreements. In addition, if any company in our industry is able to establish a
use of the "FutureLink" name that is prior to our use, we could be liable for
damages and could be forced to stop using the name unless we are able to buy the
right to use the name. If we are unable to buy the right to use our name after
we lose an infringement claim, we would have to change our name, which may
require us to spend money to build new brand recognition and incur other costs.
Third parties may assert other infringement claims against us. Any of these
events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition
and results of operations.

WE ARE A TECHNOLOGY COMPANY. HOWEVER, OUR PREVIOUS BUSINESS ACTIVITIES INCLUDED
NATURAL RESOURCE MINING AND EXPLORATION. AS A RESULT WE MAY BE EXPOSED TO
UNKNOWN ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITY THAT COULD REQUIRE US TO EXPEND OUR FINANCIAL
RESOURCES AND MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION.

We merged with a publicly-traded company that prior to 1992 was engaged in
the natural resource exploration and development business, including mining and
oil and gas. The mining, mineral processing and oil and gas industries are
subject to extensive governmental regulations for the protection of the
environment, including regulations relating to air and water quality, site
reclamation, solid and hazardous waste handling and disposal and the promotion
of occupational safety. We could be held responsible for any liabilities
relating to our previous involvement in mining or oil and gas exploration and
development, which liabilities would result in our spending our cash resources
and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition
and results of operations.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus contains forward-looking statements. We have identified
forward-looking statements in this prospectus using words such as "believes,"
"intends," "expects," "may," "will," "should," "plan," "projected,"
"contemplates," "anticipates," and similar statements. These statements are
based on our beliefs as well as assumptions we made using information currently
available to us. Because these statements reflect our current views concerning
future events, these statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions.
Actual future results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the
forward-looking statements. Some, but not all, of the factors that may cause
these differences include those discussed in the Risk Factors section of this
prospectus. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking
statements, which apply only as of the date of this prospectus.

14

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the shares offered
and sold for the accounts of the selling stockholders. In order for certain
selling stockholders to sell 326,788 shares of common stock offered for sale
pursuant to this prospectus, they must exercise outstanding warrants for the
purchase of common stock. If all of those warrants are exercised, we will
receive proceeds of $1,078,300. Since we do not have any control over when or to
what extent the warrants will be exercised, management intends to use any
proceeds received upon exercise for working capital and general corporate
purposes. Since we have not made any specific allocation for any proceeds, our
management will have significant flexibility in applying such proceeds.

The selling stockholders will not pay any of the expenses that are incurred
in connection with the registration of the shares, but they will pay all
commissions, discounts, and other compensation to any securities broker-dealers
through whom they sell any of the shares.

DIVIDEND POLICY

We currently intend to retain all of our future earnings, if any, for use
in our business and therefore we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on
our common stock in the foreseeable future. Any future determination to pay cash
dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend
upon our financial condition, operating results, capital requirements,
restrictions contained in our agreements and other factors which our board of
directors deems relevant.

PRICE RANGE OF OUR COMMON STOCK

On January 4, 2000, our common stock began trading on the Nasdaq National
Market under the trading symbol "FTRL." Before our listing on the Nasdaq
National Market, our common stock traded on the OTC Bulletin Board under the
trading symbol "FLNK" from 1998 through 1999 and under the trading symbol "CVNK"
from 1995 to 1998. Trading activity in our common stock has been limited,
sporadic and highly volatile. The high and low closing sales prices, as adjusted
to reflect the one-for-five reverse stock split effected June 1, 1999, are as
follows:

HIGH LOW
------ ------

2000
3rd Quarter................................................ $ 7.63 $ 3.06
2nd Quarter................................................ $21.50 $ 5.50
1st Quarter................................................ $35.88 $17.31
1999
4th Quarter................................................ $35.75 $ 8.50
3rd Quarter................................................ $ 9.31 $ 6.06
2nd Quarter................................................ $ 8.69 $ 1.35
1st Quarter................................................ $ 2.60 $ 1.45
1998
4th Quarter................................................ $ 4.00 $ 1.25
3rd Quarter................................................ $ 8.45 $ 1.95
2nd Quarter................................................ $21.10 $ 3.30
1st Quarter................................................ $21.25 $ 7.50

On September 29, 2000, the last reported sale price of our common stock was
$3.06 per share. As of August 30, 2000, there were 67,913,524 shares of our
common stock issued and outstanding and 726 holders of record of our common
stock.

The public market for our common stock has been limited, sporadic and
highly volatile. Between January 1, 1999 and September 29, 2000, the closing
trading price of our common stock ranged from a low of $1.35 to a high of $35.88
per share. There can be no assurance that a more active trading market for our
common stock will develop or be sustained. Even if a more active trading market
does develop, the market price of the common stock is likely to be highly
volatile and could fluctuate widely in response to factors such as:

- actual or anticipated variations in our revenues, earnings and cash flow,

- announcements of new products and services by us or our competitors and
consumer acceptance of such new products and services,

- changes in the information technology environment,

- announcements of mergers or acquisitions by ourselves or our competitors,

- sales of shares of our common stock by existing shareholders,

- financial estimates by securities analysts,

- fluctuations in the market price of our competitors' publicly-traded
stock,

- adoption of new accounting standards affecting our industry, and

- general market conditions and other factors.

Further, the stock markets have recently experienced extreme price and
volume fluctuations that have affected the market prices of equity securities of
many companies, including many companies in our industry. Some of these
fluctuations have been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating
performance of such companies. These broad market factors may adversely affect
the market price of our common stock. Such fluctuation may adversely affect our
ability to raise additional capital and your ability to liquidate your
investments at a favorable price.

Charon Systems Inc.

- our public offering of common stock completed in July 2000, and our
$10.0 million private placement of equity with Microsoft Corporation

offered for sale pursuant to this prospectus.

FUTURE ACQUISITIONS

As part of our general growth strategy, we intend to identify and acquire
other companies that will help accelerate penetration of key geographical
markets, broaden our service offerings and expand our trained technical staff
and our sales force. To successfully grow our business through acquisitions, our
management must:

- integrate any acquired businesses into our operations,

- identify appropriate acquisition candidates and negotiate acquisitions on
favorable terms,

- obtain financing on favorable terms,

- continue to operate our current businesses,

- retain and expand the key personnel and key customers of any acquired
company, and

- properly identify and account for all liabilities we assume in each
acquisition.

Our primary criterion in considering acquisition opportunities is the
financial return we expect to ultimately realize. Other specific factors we
consider in acquiring a company include:

- the customer base and the extent to which we believe we can leverage
those customers to build our ASP business,

- the market share held in a geographic region,

- revenues and operating cash flow,

- the qualifications and industry experience of management and key
employees, and

- the extent to which we believe we can successfully integrate the
operations of a company into our operations.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The following Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet (the
"Pro Forma Balance Sheet") has been prepared based upon the historical condensed
consolidated balance sheet of FutureLink Corp. as of June 30, 2000. The Pro
Forma Balance Sheet gives effect to the following as if each had occurred as of
June 30, 2000:

- repayment of $14.7 million shareholder notes issued to finance in part
our acquisitions of KNS Holdings Limited, Madison Group Holdings, and
Charon Systems Inc.,

- our public offering of common stock completed in July 2000, and

- our $10 million private placement of equity securities with Microsoft
Corporation in July 2000.

The Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet does not give effect to
the proceeds to us which would result from the exercise of warrants to purchase
326,788 shares of common stock offered for sale pursuant to this prospectus.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations (the
"Pro Forma Statement of Operations") for the year ended December 31, 1999 and
the six months ended June 30, 2000 gives effect to our completed acquisitions as
if each had occurred as of January 1, 1999.

Pro forma adjustments are described in the accompanying Notes to Unaudited
Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations does
not necessarily indicate the actual results of operations that we would have
reported if the events described above had occurred as of January 1, 1999, nor
does it necessarily indicate the results of our future operations. Furthermore,
the pro forma results do not give effect to any cost savings or incremental
costs that may occur as a result of the integration and consolidation of our
completed acquisitions. In the opinion of management, we have made all
adjustments necessary to fairly present this pro forma financial information.

We have accounted for all of our acquisitions using the purchase method of
accounting.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information should be read with the
related notes, the "Capitalization" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations" sections of this prospectus, and
the financial statements and the notes to financial statements for us and our
completed acquisitions included elsewhere in this prospectus.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of
operations should be read with the consolidated financial statements and the
related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus. This discussion contains
forward-looking statements the accuracy of which involves risks and
uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated
in the forward-looking statements for many reasons including, but not limited
to, those discussed in "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in this prospectus. We
disclaim any obligation to update information contained in any forward-looking
statement.

OVERVIEW

We provide server-based computing services and are an application service
provider, or ASP. Our services enable software applications to be deployed,
managed, supported and upgraded from centrally located servers, rather than on
individual desktop computers. For our server-based computing customers, we
install and integrate software applications on our customers' servers. For our
ASP customers, we host software applications on our servers at our data centers,
and rent computing services to our customers for a monthly fee. Our ASP
customers connect to our facilities over the Internet, through a dedicated
telecommunications line or by wireless connection. Our goal is to provide our
ASP services with the speed, simplicity and reliability of a utility service.

We introduced our ASP services in March 1999 and launched our sales program
for ASP services in July 1999. Since then, we have built our server-based
computing business through seven acquisitions that we closed between October 15,
1999, and June 19, 2000 as follows:

- On October 15, 1999, we acquired Executive LAN Management, Inc. for total
consideration of $86.0 million.

- On November 5, 1999, we acquired CN Networks, Inc. for total
consideration of $19.9 million.

- On November 26, 1999, we acquired Async Technologies, Inc. for total
consideration of $35.0 million.

- On December 22, 1999, we acquired KNS Holdings Limited, for total
consideration of $44.0 million.

- On January 31, 2000, we acquired Vertical Software, Inc. for total
consideration of $27.6 million.

- On February 29, 2000, we acquired MicroLAN Systems, Inc., doing business
as Madison Technology Group, Madison Consulting Resources, Inc. and
Madison Consulting Resources N.J., Inc. for total consideration of $57.5
million.

- On June 19, 2000, we acquired Charon Systems Inc. for total consideration
of $21.5 million.

Our acquisitions reflect our strategy to rapidly expand our market
penetration and our ability to deliver ASP services. All of the companies we
have acquired to date offer their customers information technology services,
specializing in server-based applications relying on software from Citrix
Systems, Inc. The Citrix Systems software interacts with Windows NT Terminal
Server software from Microsoft, the same software used by us to run our ASP
servers. The acquisitions have allowed us to enter other major markets through
an established market participant, with local sales and marketing teams now able
to offer both server-based integration and outsourcing services and ASP, while
allowing us to leverage the talents of additional technical staff to deliver ASP
as well as the more traditional server-based computing solutions to a wider
range of clients.

The acquisitions resulted in approximately $302 million of purchase price
in excess of net assets acquired that we have allocated to goodwill and
assembled workforce. We believe that we will be able to

26
28

realize the value of the goodwill acquired through the overall expansion of our
ASP business based on our strategic business plan. We will periodically evaluate
the goodwill based upon the future undiscounted cash flows using the forecasts
in our strategic business plan. If our estimate of future undiscounted cash
flows should change or our strategic business plan is not achieved, future
analyses may indicate insufficient future undiscounted cash flows to recover the
carrying value of the goodwill, in which case the goodwill would be written down
to fair value.

Our historical financial statements for the six month periods ended June
30, 1999 reflect FutureLink's historical Canadian business and Canadian ASP
operations and do not reflect any United States server-based computing, ASP
business or server-based computing distribution business until the effective
dates of the acquisitions listed previously. These acquired businesses now
represent a significant portion of our revenue, operations and employees.

Our discussion of operations for the six month periods ended June 30, 1999
and 2000 and for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 2000 focuses on
activities in each respective period because our significant acquisition
activity in late 1999 and 2000 distorts period to period comparisons.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 AND JUNE 30, 1999

Revenue

The components of our revenue for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June
30, 2000 increased $28.4 million to $32.8 million, from $4.4 million in the
comparable period in 1999. The increase in such costs results from the expansion
of our ASP business which resulted in increased payroll and operating costs,
additional costs for our financing and marketing activities, and the additional
selling, general and administrative costs of the subsidiaries that we acquired
during 1999 and the first quarter of 2000. The 2000 amount also includes $1.7
million of non-cash compensation charges relating to the issuance of our common
stock, options and warrants.

PRO FORMA RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -- SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000

Revenue

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2000 on a pro forma basis was
$68.7 million, comprised of $18.1 million of service revenue and $50.6 million
of revenue from hardware and software sales.

Cost of Goods Sold

Our cost of goods sold for the six months ended June 30, 2000 on a pro
forma basis was $41.1 million, or 81% of pro forma hardware and software sales.

Cost of Service Delivery

Our cost of service delivery for the six months ended June 30, 2000 on a
pro forma basis was $12.1 million or 67% of service revenue. The companies
acquired during the period and included in the pro forma consolidated financial
information did not incur the cost of installing and supporting software
applications related to our ASP and information technology outsourcing
businesses. This resulted in a cost of service delivery percentage lower than
the actual June 30, 2000 results.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Our selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended
June 30, 2000 on a pro forma basis were $36.7 million. These costs are mainly
attributable to the increased payroll, operations, marketing and administrative
costs incurred by us to secure customers and to develop business partnerships,
as well as for meeting and developing relationships with industry analysts and
financiers.

Amortization of Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets and Depreciation

Our amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets and depreciation
for the six months ended June 30, 2000 on a pro forma basis was $34.6 million.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -- YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998 AND 1999

Revenue

The components of our revenue for the years ending December 31, 1998 and
1999 were as follows (dollars in millions):

DECEMBER 31, DECEMBER 31,

------------ ------------

Information technology outsourcing, consulting and other... $1.4 $ 6.9
Sale of hardware/software.................................. 1.0 6.7
---- -----
$2.4 $13.6
==== =====

Revenue for the year ended December 31, 1998 consisted of $1.4 million of
information technology outsourcing and business consulting revenue, and $1.0
million of hardware and software sales. The revenue for this period reflects the
operations of our FutureLink/SysGold Ltd. subsidiary, which we acquired on
August 24, 1998, and our FutureLink Alberta subsidiary for the period November
23, 1998 to December 31, 1998. Prior to that date, we only held a 46% interest
in FutureLink Alberta, and we accounted for those results under the equity
method of accounting and reflected those results in equity of loss of investee.

Revenue for the year ended December 31, 1999 consisted of $1.7 million of
information technology, outsourcing and ASP service revenue generated by the
United States companies that we acquired during

29
31

the year, and $5.2 million of information technology outsourcing and consulting
services that our Canadian companies generated, which they provided to mostly
oil and gas industry customers. We also purchase and resell hardware and
software to our customers as part of our services, which accounted for $6.7
million of revenue in 1999, of which $4.7 million related to revenues generated
by the acquired companies.

$0.9, or 91% of hardware and software sales.

Our cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 1999 was $7.0
million, or 103% of related hardware and software sales. The cost of sales for
the year ended December 31, 1999 exceeded related revenue primarily because we
wrote off $232,000 of inventory during the period that existed on the books of
the companies we acquired.

Cost of Service Delivery

Our cost of service delivery for the year ended December 31, 1998 was $1.5
million. This includes amounts related to the cost of delivering our outsourcing
services and the direct cost related to the development of our ASP services,
including operating a "beta test" data center for early customers. The costs of
service delivery for this period reflects costs resulting from the operations of
our FutureLink/SysGold Ltd. subsidiary, which we acquired on August 24, 1998,
and from Futurelink Alberta for the period November 23, 1998 to December 31,
1998. Prior to that date, we only held a 46% interest in FutureLink Alberta, and
we accounted for those results under the equity method of accounting and
reflected those results in loss of investee.

Our cost of service delivery for the year ended December 31, 1999 was $10.5
million. Our cost of service delivery reflects payroll and benefit costs for our
outsourcing consultants who support the information technology activities of our
clients and payroll, benefit, and operational costs related to testing and
operating our data centers and installing and supporting software applications
related to our ASP and information technology outsourcing businesses.

Selling, General and Administrative

Our selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended
December 31, 1998 were $3.1 million and included selling, general and
administrative costs resulting from the operations of our FutureLink/SysGold
Ltd. subsidiary, which we acquired on August 24, 1998. The 1998 amount includes
selling, general and administrative costs from our FutureLink Alberta subsidiary
for the period November 23, 1998 to December 31, 1998. Prior to that date, we
only held a 46% interest in FutureLink Alberta, and we accounted for those
results under the equity method of accounting and reflected those results in
loss of investee. The 1998 amount also includes $2.1 million of non-cash
compensation charges relating to the issuance of our common stock, options and
warrants.

Our selling, general and administrative expenses include travel, payroll,
operations, advertising, and marketing expenses to secure customers and to
develop business partnerships, as well as for meeting and developing
relationships with industry analysts and financiers. Selling, general and
administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 1999 increased $9.5
million to $12.6 million, from $3.1 million in the comparable period in 1998.
The increase in such costs results from the expansion of our ASP business which
resulted in increased payroll and operating costs, additional costs to our
financing and marketing activities, and $4.6 million additional selling, general
and administrative costs of the subsidiaries that we acquired during the year.
The 1999 amount also includes $3.3 million of non-cash compensation charges

debt discount, of $12.1 million for the year ended December 31, 1999, reflects
non-cash charges of $11.1 million related to, among other factors, the
difference between the market value of the debt conversion features on the date
of the debt agreement and the price of conversion. The cash interest expense of
$1.0 million relates to interest on bank indebtedness and lines of credit,
capital lease obligations and convertible debt and promissory notes outstanding
during the year.

Amortization of Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets and Depreciation

Our depreciation and amortization costs for the years ended December 31,
1998 and 1999 are comprised of the following (dollars in millions):

1998 1999
---- ----

Amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets........ $0.7 $5.0
Depreciation and amortization............................... 0.2 1.7
---- ----
$0.9 $6.7
==== ====

Our amortization of intangible assets for the year ended December 31, 1998
relates to the amortization of the assembled workforce that we acquired during
1998.

Our depreciation for the year ended December 31, 1999 includes depreciation
on the expansion of our Canadian data center, software user licenses, and office
and leasehold improvements. Our amortization of intangible assets for the year
ending December 31, 1999 relates to the amortization of goodwill on the
acquisitions made during the year and from the assembled workforce acquired
during the year ended December 31, 1998.

Equity in Loss of Investee

On January 20, 1998, we acquired a 46% interest in FutureLink Alberta.
Effective November 23, 1998, we acquired a further 50.4% interest in FutureLink
Alberta, bringing our total ownership to 96.4%. We accounted for our investment
in FutureLink Alberta for the period January 20, 1998 to November 23, 1998 using
the equity method of accounting for investments, and included 46% of FutureLink
Alberta's net loss on our statement of operations as "Equity in loss of
investee." Upon the November 24, 1998 acquisition of the additional 50.4%
interest, we consolidated FutureLink Alberta's results of operations into our
results of operations. In 1999, we consolidated FutureLink Alberta's operations
with our operations for the full year.

Extraordinary Item

During the year ended December 31, 1999, we renegotiated the terms of our
10% convertible debentures having an original aggregate principal amount of $6.0
million. We issued additional warrants to holders of our convertible debentures
and also retired a portion of the principal amount of these convertible
debentures at a premium. As a result of this series of transactions, we recorded
an extraordinary loss of $0.8 million.

PRO FORMA RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -- YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999

Revenue

Revenue for the year ended December 31, 1998 on a pro forma basis was $78.5
million, comprised of $19.3 million of service revenue and $59.2 million of
revenue from hardware and software sales. Revenue for the year ended December
31, 1999 on a pro forma basis was $115.0 million, comprised of $37.4 million of
service revenue and $77.6 million of revenue from hardware and software sales.
The increase in revenue was a result of the overall increase in demand for
Citrix products, as well as for service-based computing services, particularly
as they related to delivering software applications from remote locations.

Cost of Goods Sold

Our cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 1998 on a pro forma
basis was $53.2 million, or 89.7% of pro forma hardware and software sales. Our
cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 1999 on a pro forma basis was
$64.8 million, or 83.5% of pro forma hardware and software sales. The change in
the cost of goods sold percentage was due primarily to a change in product mix
and better pricing in 1999.

Cost of Service Delivery

Our cost of service delivery for the year ended December 31, 1998 on a pro
forma basis was $5.2 million or 26.9% of service revenue as compared to $24.8
million or 66.3% of service revenue on a pro forma basis for the year ended
December 31, 1999. The increase in cost of service delivery percentage is due
primarily to the 1999 amount including a substantial amount of ASP service
development and engineering costs, which had a limited amount of offsetting
revenue.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Our selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended
December 31, 1998 on a pro forma basis were $20.5 million, as compared to $39.3
million on a pro forma basis for the year ended December 31, 1999. The increase
in expenses was mainly attributable to the increased payroll, operations,
marketing and administrative costs incurred by us in 1999 to secure customers
and to develop business partnerships, as well as for meeting and developing
relationships with industry analysts and financiers. The increase in costs is
also consistent with the overall increase in operations resulting from the
increased sales activity.

Depreciation and Amortization of Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Our depreciation and amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets
for the year ended December 31, 1998 on a pro forma basis was $60.0 million as
compared to $63.0 million on a pro forma basis for the year ended December 31,
1999.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

During the six months ended June 30, 2000, we had net cash outflows from
operating activities of $22.2 million and utilized another $18.0 million for
acquisitions. These outflows related mainly to the expansion of our ASP
business, our significant acquisition activity and a payment of $5.0 million to
SmallCaps Online Group LLC relating to the settlement of a litigation matter. In
addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2000 we invested $2.8 million in
property and equipment, mostly in expanding our existing data centers, and for
the acquisition of software, hardware and other infrastructure costs necessary
to host our ASP customers. These net cash outflows are significantly greater
than net cash outflows for the same period in 1999.

32
34

During the six months ended June 30, 2000 we acquired three companies. The
total consideration for these acquisitions was $106.5 million consisting of
$15.2 million cash; 5,201,459 shares of common stock valued at $79.6 million;
and notes payable of $11.7 million, all of which were paid subsequent to June
30, 2000.

We used the following sources of financing to fund operations, our
acquisitions, expansion of our ASP business, our expansion into the United
States and the United Kingdom, investments in property and equipment, and for
the acquisition of software, hardware and other infrastructure costs necessary
to host our ASP customers:

Issuance of common stock and warrants -- During 1999, we completed a
private placement of $50.0 million of common equity with institutional private
equity investors and received net proceeds of approximately $46.1 million after
deducting commissions and fees. As part of this placement, we issued warrants to
acquire 2,401,041 shares of common stock to the investors and the placement
agent. The holders exercised these warrants in February 2000, resulting in net
proceeds to the Company of $18.0 million. On April 28, 2000, the Company
completed a private placement of approximately $15 million common equity with
institutional private equity investors. As part of this placement, the Company
issued to the investors 1,764,706 shares of common stock and warrants to
purchase 441,176 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $9.25 per share.
On July 10, 2000, the Company issued to Microsoft Corporation, for proceeds of
$10.0 million, 1,428,571 shares of FutureLink Series A preferred stock for a
price of $7.00 per share. The Company also issued to Microsoft a warrant with a
five-year term to purchase up to an additional 1,142,857 shares of Series A
preferred stock at an exercise price of $7.00 per share. In July 2000, the
Company completed a public offering of 6,250,000 shares of its common stock at a
price of $7.00 per share. The Company received net proceeds of $37.4 from this
offering after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and offering costs.

Lease Financing -- During the six months ended June 30, 2000, we utilized
several capital asset lease lines with financial lenders and computer hardware
vendors. These lines allow us to lease up to $22.5 million of computer hardware
and related infrastructure. As of June 30, 2000, we have used $11.1 million of
these lines. We had available borrowings of $11.4 million as of June 30, 2000
and $9.5 million as of October 19, 2000 under the various lease lines. Since
June 30, 2000, we incurred an additional $3.1 million of capital lease
obligations to finance the purchase of certain equipment. Aggregate monthly
payments under these lines were $0.4 million as of June 30, 2000 and $0.7
million as of October 19, 2000, including interest implicit in the leases at
rates ranging from 9% to 14% per annum. These lines have been partially used to
build and expand our United States, Canadian and United Kingdom data centers.

Bank Financing -- The Company has a credit facility agreement with a bank
that allows borrowings up to a maximum of $10.0 million based upon the Company
meeting certain performance criteria. Borrowings under the credit agreement at
June 30, 2000 were $3.6 million and the Company had utilized an additional $1.0
million to secure an outstanding letter of credit. The facility bears interest
at rates that vary from prime (9.5% at June 30, 2000) plus 1% to prime plus 3%
per annum based upon the Company maintaining certain operating performance
levels, and is payable on demand. The facility is secured by receivables and
other assets of certain subsidiaries of the Company, and guarantees and a pledge
of a percentage of the shares of those subsidiaries. The agreement contains
certain financial and other covenants or restrictions, including the maintenance
of certain financial ratios, limitations on the incurrence of indebtedness and
restrictions on dividends paid by the Company. As of June 30, 2000 and October
19, 2000, the Company was either in compliance with, or had obtained waivers
for, all covenants, limitations and restrictions. At June 30, 2000 the unused
available amount under the agreement was approximately $0.4 million and as of
October 19, 2000, the credit facility was fully utilized.

The Company maintains lines of credit at two other banks that allow
aggregate borrowings of $1.1 million, all of which was borrowed at June 30,
2000. The lines bear interest at various rates ranging from prime plus 1% to
prime plus 3% per annum, and mature at various intervals through November 30,
2000. The lines are secured by certificates of deposit aggregating $1.1 million.

33
35

We believe that our available cash, cash equivalents and available
borrowings under our lease and bank credit facilities, together with any income
generated from operations, will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs
to fund our operating losses, working capital and capital expenditures through
at least June 2001.

In connection with our server-based computing services, we purchase
hardware and software for resale to our customers. These purchases account for a
significant demand on our available resources and, at times, create liquidity
concerns which impact the use of our available funds. Although these hardware
and software costs are invoiced to our customers in connection with the delivery
of our server-based computing services, receipt of payment for such services
often occurs several months after we have acquired the related hardware and
software. To address our need to continue to purchase hardware and software
prior to, and in connection with, the performance of services to our clients
and, at the same time, to enable us to address our short-term and long-term
liquidity needs in a more predictable manner, on August 21, 2000, we entered
into a letter of intent with a nationally-recognized financial institution
relating to a revolving credit facility for up to $30 million based upon our
accounts receivables and secured by substantially all of our assets. The funds
available from this credit facility will be used to refinance all of our
outstanding senior indebtedness under the three existing bank credit facilities
described above and provide the necessary financing for working capital
(including the funding of hardware and software purchases related to the
performance of our server-based computing services), acquisitions and capital
expenditures. Our current capital asset lease lines of credit with financial
lenders and computer hardware vendors, described above, will remain in effect.
Advances under the new facility will be subject to a sub-limit of $5 million for
each of our Canadian and United Kingdom subsidiaries. The facility will mature
in three years and will contain prepayment penalties. The credit facility will
bear interest at prime or prime plus 1.5% per annum, depending on the amount of
our available unrestricted cash from time to time; however, at no time will the
interest rate charged by the lender be less than 8% per annum. The credit
facility contains certain financial and other covenants and restrictions. In
connection with entering into the new credit facility, we have agreed to grant
to the financial institution a warrant to purchase 100,000 shares of our common
stock at an exercise price of $8.40 per share with related registration rights.
We expect to execute final documents, and have the facility in place by November
2000. The letter of intent contains usual and customary conditions to closing,
including the satisfactory completion of the financial institution's due
diligence, the absence of material adverse changes in our business and the
execution of final documents. Accordingly, we cannot give any assurance that
this credit facility will be consummated. To the extent that it is not
consummated, we will continue to pursue other similar credit financing options.
We cannot assure you that comparable alternative financing will be available to
us on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

Our future liquidity will also depend on our ability to restructure our
operations to reduce our operating loss. In October 2000, consistent with our
plan to integrate our recent acquired companies and achieve more efficient
operations, we closed 6 branch offices and eliminated an aggregate of 75
positions company-wide through a combination of reduction in force and
attrition. As a result of these actions, the Company expects to realize
annualized cost savings of approximately $12 million by the end of the fourth
quarter 2000. We will continue to evaluate all aspects of our operations with a
view to reducing our operating losses. If we are unable to secure additional
financing and we are unable to curtail our operating losses, our current
operations could be materially adversely affected for the period beyond the
second quarter of fiscal 2001.

In order to fund our expansion, we will require additional capital. This
financing may involve incurring additional debt (beyond the $30 million credit
facility discussed above) and/or selling equity securities. We cannot assure you
that such additional financing will be available to us on commercially
reasonable terms or at all. If we incur debt (including the debt which is
subject to the August 21st letter of intent) the risks associated with our
business and with owning our common stock should increase. If we raise capital
through the sale of equity securities, the percentage ownership of our
shareholders will be diluted.

34
36

In addition, any new equity securities may have rights, preferences or
privileges senior to those of our common stock. If we are unable to obtain
additional financing, our ability to meet our current plans for expansion could
be materially adversely affected.

Foreign Currency Translation and Hedging

We are exposed to foreign currency fluctuations through our operations in
Canada and the United Kingdom. At June 30, on a pro forma basis adjusted for all
closed acquisitions, approximately 18% of our revenue and 15% of our receivables
are in Canadian dollars and approximately 19% of our revenue and 20% of our
receivables are in British pounds. We do not enter into forward exchange
contracts or any derivative financial investments for trading purposes. Thus, we
do not currently hedge our foreign currency exposure.

35
37

BUSINESS

OUR COMPANY

We provide server-based computing services and are an application service
provider, or ASP. Our services enable software applications to be deployed,
managed, supported and upgraded from centrally located data centers, rather than
on individual desktop computers. For our server-based computing customers, we
install and integrate software applications on our customers' servers. For our
ASP customers, we host applications on our servers at our data centers and rent
computing services to our customers for a monthly fee. Our ASP customers connect
to our facilities over the Internet, through a dedicated telecommunications line
or by wireless connection. Our goal is to provide our ASP services with the
speed, simplicity and reliability of a utility service. We introduced our ASP
services in March 1999 and our goal is to make our ASP services a much larger
portion of our overall business.

We are the largest integrator in North America of server-based computing
systems using Citrix software. Citrix software is one of the leading
technologies for delivering software applications from remote locations. We
typically install Citrix software along with Windows NT Terminal Server software
from Microsoft. Customers for our server-based computing services have included
Cisco Systems, The Walt Disney Company, Allied Signal, General Motors, Ford
Motor Company, Bank of America, Apple Computer and Delta Airlines. We are
building upon our server-based computing expertise to develop our ASP services.

We believe that through our experience in the server-based computing
business, we have developed a number of strengths that position us to
successfully grow our ASP business, including:

- a recognizable customer base, lending credibility to our ASP services,

- technical expertise in enabling a variety of software applications to
operate in a server-based computing environment, and

- relationships with sales channels, including software vendors and
software application integrators.

In addition to our operations in the United States, we currently conduct
business in Canada and the United Kingdom. A material part of our growth
strategy is based on expanding our operations internationally. We anticipate
that Canadian and European sales will account for a significant amount of our
future revenue.

There are certain risks inherent in doing business in international
markets, such as:

- different telecommunications access fees,

- different technology standards,

- different liability standards,

- less protective intellectual property laws,

- changes in political conditions,

- changes in regulatory requirements,

- increased expenses due to tariffs and other trade barriers,

- fluctuations in currency exchange rates,

- restrictions on currency transfers,

- potentially adverse tax consequences, and

- difficulties in managing or overseeing foreign operations.

Any of these risks may have a material adverse effect on our current or
future international operations and, consequently, on our business, results of
operations and financial condition.

OUR MARKET OPPORTUNITY

Both the ASP and the server-based computing markets are growing. According
to Forrester Research, Inc., the size of the ASP market in 1999 was less than
$1.0 billion. Forrester Research, Inc. projects this market to grow to over
$11.0 billion in 2003 and that 22% of all U.S.-based application revenue will
flow through ASPs' such as us. In 1999, server-based computing accounted for
substantially all of our revenues. Our business strategy is to leverage our
server-based computing business to grow our ASP business into a larger portion
of our business.

We believe the growth of the server-based computing and ASP services
markets is being driven by the following factors:

- Software Complexity. Software applications are increasingly more complex
and need to be continually upgraded, integrated and supported. This is
beyond the expertise of many companies.

- Shortage of Information Technology Professionals. According to
International Data Corporation, by 2002 there will be a shortage of
850,000 information technology professionals in the United States and an
even greater shortage of one million information technology personnel in
Europe. Companies are finding it increasingly more difficult and
expensive to maintain their information technology departments.

- Telecommunication Costs Have Been Declining. The greater availability of
telecommunications capacity and declining costs over the last several
years have made the use of centralized computing more economical to
businesses.

- Increasing Demand for Remote and Shared Access to Software
Applications. Many companies require that their employees be able to
access software applications both from their desktops and from locations
away from their offices. These companies are using server-based computing
and ASP solutions to meet these requirements.

OUR SOLUTIONS

Our solutions offer the following key benefits:

- Reliable service. By offering service level agreements and utilizing the
latest technology, we are able to provide increased levels of service
which our customers cannot easily replicate.

- Reduce dependency on information technology staff. The maintenance of a
complete, professionally-managed information technology team necessary to
effectively manage complex software and information technology
infrastructures is increasingly expensive and difficult. By outsourcing
all or part of their information technology needs, our customers are able
to reduce their information technology staff and can focus on their core
competencies.

- Lower costs. By spreading information technology costs among many
customers, we are able to achieve economies of scale not possible for our
target customers and as a result offer our customers significant cost
savings. Customers of our server-based computing services are able to
reduce their information technology costs. Our ASP customers realize the
same benefits, and are able to forecast and budget their ongoing
information technology costs and reduce their upfront information
technology investment.

- Rapid deployment. By having their software applications hosted at central
locations, our customers are able to rapidly deploy and quickly upgrade
their software, allowing them to more rapidly realize returns on their
information technology expenditures. For our ASP customers, we are able
to offer applications installed at our servers to customers almost
immediately.

- Ability to run on a variety of hardware systems. We can integrate
different computer systems and devices, including a company's existing
personal computer terminals, without the need for significant hardware
upgrades. This allows our customers to implement our solutions without
replacing existing computer hardware, extending the useful life of their
existing computer systems.

37
39

- Flexibility. We are not committed to any particular software package or
linked to any single software manufacturer. Instead, we seek to deliver
software applications best suited for our customers. We can accommodate
virtually any software application. Our customers have the flexibility to
host some or all of their software applications on our servers.

OUR STRATEGY

We seek to build a global ASP and continue to develop our server-based
computing business by:

- Leveraging our existing server-based computing capabilities to build our
ASP business. Our expertise in providing server-based computing solutions
makes us well-positioned to provide ASP services. Through our
acquisitions, we have built a strong base of technical experts. We plan
to continue to build this base, and to transition technical professionals
from server-based computing services to ASP services in order to
implement our business plan.

- Rapidly penetrating the market through our third-party distribution
channels. We market our ASP services primarily through third-party
distribution channels, including software application and system
integrators. We believe these distribution channels will allow us to
rapidly increase our market penetration without incurring significant
capital expenditures. This should also allow us to shorten the sales
cycle for our service offerings by targeting the customer closer to the
time of the customer's decision to purchase software. We also believe
this strategy gives us access to market leading products and technology
and allows us to focus on service delivery rather than software
development. We currently maintain relationships with over 60 software
applications and systems integrators.

- Broadening our relationships with software vendors. We have established
relationships with software application vendors in key application areas,
including Microsoft, Great Plains Software, Onyx Software and SalesLogix.
Our agreements with software application providers generally enable us to
deploy software applications for a monthly fee, without the need to
establish a separate licensing arrangement for each customer. Our
relationships with these providers also enable us to provide our
customers with an economically attractive service offering, and afford us
co-marketing and co-branding opportunities. We plan to enter into
relationships with other software application providers. This will enable
us to expand our portfolio of software applications and reduce our
reliance on any one software application provider.

- Expanding through acquisitions. We intend to expand our business through
both internal growth and strategic acquisitions in the United States and
abroad. Our acquisitions allow us to accelerate our penetration of key
geographical markets, broaden our service offerings, and expand our
trained technical staff and our sales force.

OUR SERVICE OFFERINGS

Server-Based Computing Services

Our server-based computing services are aimed at customers who have or wish
to install their own data centers and operate these with their own information
technology staff, but need expertise to assist in addressing certain aspects of
their information technology needs. For the year ended December 31, 1999, on a
pro forma basis, after giving effect to our completed acquisitions, our
server-based computing services accounted for a substantial portion of our
revenues on a pro forma basis and we expect these services to account for a
substantial portion of our revenues for the year ending December 31, 2000. We
currently serve customers which range from small organizations to Fortune 100
companies. Our server-based computing services include the following:

- installing and integrating software applications on our customers'
servers using Citrix server-based computing software,

- maintaining, onsite and remotely, our customers' server-based computing
environments, and

- training information technology professionals to use Citrix and Microsoft
operating software.

38
40

Our typical contract for server-based computing services provides for the
installation of one or more servers to deliver software applications to our
customers' desktops through their own local area network and the integration of
software at their servers. Depending on the type and length of the project,
pricing for these services is based on an hourly rate, at a daily rate, on a
project by project basis, on a monthly price per consultant or on a monthly fee
per employee or user. We also offer maintenance services and training.
Maintenance services are typically charged on a fixed fee basis or on an hourly
rate for employees who maintain the system. Our direct sales force sells our
server-based computing services.

ASP Services

Our ASP services involve deploying, managing and supporting software
applications hosted at our data centers for our customers. Our ASP services are
designed so that our customers can choose the combination of software
applications that best meet their business requirements, technical needs and
financial resources. Depending on the requirements of our software providers, we
sometimes enter into sublicensing agreements with our customers granting the
right to use certain software applications.

Most of our ASP customers are small to mid-sized businesses having 20 to
2,000 employees. To date, our ASP services have accounted for a small portion of
our business. However, we expect our ASP services to account for an increasingly
larger portion of our business in the future. We typically enter into three year
agreements with our customers and charge them a flat monthly fee depending on
the software applications we host for them. Our customers pay for our ASP
services on a monthly basis. Our prices are based on the number of users, types
of applications hosted and number of support services that our customers use.

Growth in the demand for our ASP services is dependent upon the following
factors:

- the compatability between our ASP services and technology that our
customers use,

- our ability to reliably deliver ASP services to our customers,

- other ASP providers providing quality services so as not to diminish
consumer confidence in ASP services,

- mitigating the effects of defects in software applications delivered from
our data centers that are beyond our control,

- our ability to strengthen awareness of our brand and differentiate the
services we offer from those of our competitors,

- our ability to market our services in a cost-effective manner to new
customers, and

- satisfying customer concerns over data security and user privacy.

Other Services

We provide video conferencing for our European customers. We also provide
consulting and other complementary services to our customers, usually as a
supplementary service to our server-based computing and ASP offerings.

KEY RELATIONSHIPS

In implementing our growth strategy, we have developed important commercial
relationships with the following:

CITRIX. Citrix Systems, Inc. provides technology that enables users to
access software applications from virtually any computing device, including
desktops, mobile computers, network computers, terminals, information
appliances, palmtops or other devices, across virtually any network. Citrix
provides what we believe is the most advanced technology for delivering software
applications to remote users as well as the most scalable and flexible tools for
server-based computing. Citrix's software is designed to work within a
Microsoft's Windows NT-compatible server environment, allowing virtually any
computer terminal to access standard Windows applications running on the server.
We are the largest integrator of server-based computing solutions using Citrix
technology in North America.

COMPAQ. In the fourth quarter of 1999, Compaq Computer Corporation invested
$2.2 million in our company and extended us a $20.0 million lease line of credit
to provide our data centers with Compaq servers on an exclusive basis. We have
deployed Compaq's products in our Irvine and Calgary data centers. Compaq's
equity investment will be used for joint marketing efforts to promote our ASP
services featuring Compaq hardware. These promotions will principally occur
through our joint participation at industry trade shows, the publication and
distribution of marketing materials and the advertisement of these products in
trade journals and other media. We also indicate in our product materials that
our internal data centers operate on Compaq servers. We believe our joint
marketing programs will allow us to align the strengths of our respective sales
and distribution channels.

SOFTWARE APPLICATION PROVIDERS. We have significant commercial
relationships with a variety of leading software providers, including Microsoft,
Citrix, Onyx Software, SalesLogix and Great Plains. We believe our ability to
deliver a broad array of applications is a significant competitive advantage.
Our agreements with these software suppliers allow us to deploy applications on
a monthly subscription basis without the need to establish a separate licensing
arrangement for each customer. The agreements also generally include
co-marketing, specialized product training and preferred pricing on the licenses
to the software.

Certain important relationships with software application providers are
described below.

- Microsoft. We have been selected to participate in Microsoft
Corporation's Back Office software pilot program to host its Back Office
software for delivery to ASP customers. We have been approved to host
Microsoft Office 2000 at our data centers as part of Microsoft's new
service offering, Microsoft Office Online. In addition, we are a
participant in Microsoft's Complete Commerce program which showcases our
ASP offerings for Great Plains and Pivotal offerings. The term of our
agreement with Microsoft expires June 30, 2001. Either party may
terminate the agreement for cause by giving the other party 30 days
written notice.

- Citrix. We are a participant in Citrix's ASP license program. This allows
us to use Citrix technology in our data centers to deliver applications
to our ASP customers. We are the largest integrator of server-based
computing solutions using Citrix technology in North America. Our
subsidiaries are parties to several agreements with Citrix covering
various geographic territories. These agreements typically have a one
year term and may be terminated by either party for any reason by giving
the other party 30 days written notice.

- Onyx Software Corp. We have entered into a strategic relationship with
Onyx Software. Onyx has agreed to provide us with ASP customers
purchasing a minimum of $25,000 per month of our ASP services. We have
agreed to spend $300,000 on joint marketing and advertising promoting
Onyx products and our ASP services. The agreement may be terminated by
either party on 30 days notice if the other party materially breaches the
agreement and fails to cure the breach within 30 days.

- SalesLogix. We have been approved to host SalesLogix software
applications. Our agreement with SalesLogix terminates when either party
gives the other party written notice of termination at least 60 days
prior to November 1 of the then current year, in which case the agreement
terminates on November 1 of such year.

- Great Plains. We have been approved to host Great Plains software
applications. Our agreement with Great Plains may be terminated by either
party for any reason by giving the other party 180 days notice.

SOFTWARE APPLICATION INTEGRATORS. Many companies rely on software
application integrators with expertise in business software applications to
evaluate, install, integrate, modify and customize software applications for
them. We have developed significant commercial relationships with software
integrators to provide us with an additional sales channel without requiring us
to make a significant capital investment to develop an extensive direct sales
force. Software application integrators desire to work with us so that they can
expand their sales offerings.

SALES AND MARKETING

We offer our services through our direct sales force, the sales forces of
software application providers and independent software distributors and
application integrators. We are initially targeting our ASP services to small
and medium sized businesses, which we believe represent a strong market
opportunity, and market these services through our independent software
distribution sales channel. We plan to expand our marketing to larger businesses
in the future. We currently have strategic relationships with over 20 software
application providers and over 100 independent resellers, software distributors
and application integrators. Our direct sales force consists of over 60
professionals, who are focused on offering our server-based computing services
and ASP services to existing and new customers in the small- and medium-sized
business markets. In 1999, we allocated $1.5 million for our advertising and
promotional strategies. In 2000, we increased this amount to approximately $2.5
million to build our brand name and create market awareness. As part of our
efforts to continue end user and channel education about the ASP concept, we
have initiated a $2.0 million print advertising campaign in the United States
and Canada in several major business publications (Business Week, The Wall
Street Journal, Wired Magazine, Industry Standard and others) targeting chief
executive officers, chief technology officers, chief information officers and
chief financial officers. This campaign will extend from June to December of
this year. Our strategy is to educate our channel sales partners while
simultaneously generating end user demand. To service that demand effectively,
we are investing in building a call center and lead management process. We are
also developing new ASP and server-based computing sales tools for both our
direct sales force and our channel sales partners to support them throughout the
sales process. We will continue our strategy to develop our channel sales
through cooperative seminars and events with our independent software vendor and
channel sales partners. We are leveraging our relationships with brand name
partners such as Microsoft, Citrix and Compaq as well as our independent
software vendor partners in co-marketing arrangements to extend the reach and
effectiveness of our marketing efforts.

OUR ASP DELIVERY SYSTEM

We have developed a secure, reliable and high-performance system for
delivering software applications to multiple users, which we believe provides us
with a significant competitive advantage. Our personnel in Irvine, California
monitor our system on a continual basis. We combine internally created
technology innovations with technologies from leading software and hardware
providers, including, among others, Citrix delivery software, Compaq, IBM and
Sun MicroSystems computer servers, Cisco Systems routers and firewall protection
software, and EMC(2) storage devices. To address the diverse requirements of our
customers, we offer our ASP services on all of the leading operating systems and
computing platforms including Solaris, which operates on a Sun MicroSystems,
Inc. platform, and Microsoft Windows NT Terminal Server software, which operates
on an Intel personal computer platform. Our delivery system is

42
44

scalable, allowing servers to be added to support additional users without
disrupting other servers that are concurrently running software applications.

We operate state-of-the-art data centers in Irvine, California, Calgary and
Toronto Canada and Newbury, United Kingdom, from which we deliver our ASP
services. Each facility features separate, back-up network and power
connections, cooling systems and on-site back-up diesel generators to ensure a
continuous power supply. We employ several security measures including:

- 24-hour security guards,

- electronic surveillance,

- limited access electronic card key measures,

- the physical separation of servers from administrative workstations, and

- firewalls at each entry point to our data centers.

We offer connectivity to our systems from virtually anywhere in the world,
providing customers with global access to software applications. Customers can
access us:

- via the Internet,

- through high speed connections in more than 105 countries, and

- over Frame Relay through AT&T Corp., Sprint Corporation and MCI Worldcom,
Inc., or over dedicated, private lines.

We have designed our network to minimize the effect of any interruptions.
We monitor the performance and security of our entire infrastructure. We have
also implemented security measures to identify potential sources of failure or
interruption. Although we have attempted to build complete back-up into our
network and hosting facilities, our delivery system is currently subject to
several single points of failure, and a problem with one of our servers, routers
or switches could cause an interruption in the services we provide to some of
our customers.

The design of our data centers enables systems administrators and support
staff to be promptly alerted to problems and rapidly resolve any technical
issues.

Our success depends upon our ability to increase the capacity of our data
centers and related communications systems in a timely and cost-effective
manner. Expanding our delivery system significantly and rapidly in response to
any increased demand for our ASP services will place additional stress upon our
hardware, traffic management systems and hosting facilities as well as our
financial, operational and management resources. We may be unable to manage our
growth successfully, in which case our business, financial condition and results
of operation could be materially adversely affected.

COMPETITION

The markets for our services are extremely competitive. The tremendous
growth and potential size of these markets have attracted many start-ups, as
well as extensions of existing businesses from different industries. The
principal competitive factors in this market include:

- quality of service, including performance, scalability, reliability and
functionality,

- customer service and support,

- variety of services offered,

- price,

- name recognition, and

- network security.

43
45

Our current and prospective competitors include other ASPs, systems
integrators, Internet service providers, hardware and software suppliers and
telecommunications companies.

ASPS. We compete with other companies whose core business is providing ASP
services. These competitors include, among others, USinternetworking, Corio,
Interliant, Breakaway Solutions, and Telecomputing. Many of these competitors
are targeting the same small and medium-sized enterprises that we are initially
targeting.

SYSTEMS INTEGRATORS. We compete with commercial systems integrators who
bundle their services with software and hardware providers and perform an
outsourcing role for the customer. Examples of these competitors include EDS,
Andersen Consulting, PricewaterhouseCoopers and MCI Systemhouse, among others.
These companies provide professional consulting services in the use and
integration of software applications in single-project customer engagements.
Systems integrators may establish strategic relationships with software
application providers to offer services similar to our ASP offerings. Their
strengths include local customer awareness and relationships with hardware and
software companies. Additionally, regional systems integrators may align
themselves with Internet service providers to offer complex website management
combined with professional implementation services.

INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDERS AND WEBSITE HOSTING COMPANIES. Our current
competitors include business-focused Internet service providers and website
hosting companies with a significant national presence, such as, among others,
UUNet Technologies, GTE Internetworking, PSINet, Concentric, DIGEX, Frontier and
Exodus Communications. These companies intend to expand their service offerings
by bundling their Internet access and website hosting service offerings with the
delivery of software applications on a subscription basis.

HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE COMPANIES. We compete with hardware and software
companies in providing software application solutions as well as delivery system
infrastructure. In order to build market share, both hardware and software
providers may establish strategic relationships to enhance their service
offerings. IBM Solutions currently provides applications outsourcing of its
Lotus Notes products and delivers the service via the IBM network
infrastructure. J.D. Edwards & Company, a developer of enterprise resource
planning software, has announced that it will offer its software in an
outsourced model. SAP Aktiengesellschaft has formed an outsourcing organization
to develop key partnerships with leading consulting firms with the intent of
offering SAP software and PeopleSoft and Oracle have announced an ASP strategy.
We believe that additional hardware and software providers, potentially
including our current software partners, may enter the outsourcing market in the
future.

TELECOMMUNICATIONS COMPANIES. Many long distance companies, regional Bell
operating companies and competitive local exchange carriers offer Internet
access services. In order to address the Internet connectivity requirements of
their current business customers, we believe that there is a move towards
horizontal integration through acquisitions of, joint ventures with, and
purchasing connectivity from, Internet service providers. Accordingly, we expect
that we will experience increased competition from the traditional
telecommunications carriers. Many of these telecommunications carriers, in
addition to their substantially greater network coverage, market presence, and
financial, technical and personnel resources, also have large existing
commercial customer bases. We believe that our local presence, our strong
technical and data-oriented sales force and our offering a single source
computing solution are important features distinguishing us from the
telecommunications companies.

OTHER POTENTIAL COMPETITORS. It is possible that new competitors or
alliances may emerge and gain market share. Such competitors could materially
affect our ability to obtain new contracts. Further, competitive pressure could
require us to reduce the price of our products and services thus affecting our
business, financial condition and results from operations.

Many of our competitors have substantially greater financial, technical and
marketing resources, larger customer bases, longer operating histories, greater
name recognition and more established relationships in the industry than we do.
As a result, certain of these competitors may be able to develop and expand
their

44
46

service offerings more rapidly, adapt to new or emerging technologies and
changes in customer requirements more quickly, take advantage of acquisition and
other opportunities more readily, devote greater resources to the marketing and
sale of their services and adopt more aggressive pricing policies than we can.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Our intellectual property is important to our business. We rely on a
combination of copyright, trademark, and trade secret laws, confidentiality
procedures and contractual provisions to protect our intellectual property. We
have no patented technology, and patented technology is not material to our
business.

We enter into agreements with many of our employees giving us proprietary
rights to certain technology these employees develop while we employ them. We
cannot assure you that a court will enforce these agreements. In addition, we
may be inadequately protected against the use of technology employees develop
who have not entered into such agreements.

We have applied for federal trademark or service mark registration of the
names "FutureLink," "Flink," "FutureServe," "Wide Area Thin Client Hook-up,"
"W.A.T.C.H.," "Your Way Ahead," "The World's First Computer Utility Company,"
"ApplicationPortal," "The Computer Utility Company," "Computer Utility" and "The
Application Utility Company" and for our various logos in both Canada, the
United States and the United Kingdom. In addition, we may seek further
trademarks and may in the future take other steps, such as seeking copyrights or
patents on some of our intellectual property. We are aware of other companies
using the "FutureLink" name, and are in the process of investigating the rights,
if any, others may have in the name. If any such company engaged in businesses
in our industry can establish prior use to such name and damages caused by our
use of the name, we may incur liability and be forced to cease using the name.

Our efforts to protect our intellectual property may not be adequate. We
may need to commence lawsuits from time to time to protect our intellectual
property.

Our competitors may independently develop similar technology or duplicate
our products or services. Unauthorized parties may infringe upon or
misappropriate our products, services or proprietary information. In the future,
litigation may be necessary to enforce our intellectual property rights or to
determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. Any such
litigation could be time-consuming and costly.

In order to safeguard the flow of personal information over the Internet,
we intend to offer our customers various forms of encryption technology. The
United States government regulates the export of this technology and may require
a license or other authorization. There is no guarantee that we will be able to
obtain such a license. In addition, many other countries regulate the export,
import, or use of encryption technology. There is no guarantee that we will be
able to obtain the necessary permission to engage in our contemplated
activities.

FACILITIES

In late 1999 we relocated our headquarters from Calgary, Canada to Irvine,
California. In September 2000, we moved our headquarters to a 77,326 square foot
facility which we lease in Lake Forest, California. In addition we lease an
approximate 1,000 square foot facility in Irvine, California which serves as one
of our data centers. We also lease office facilities in Los Angeles and
Pleasanton, California; Phoenix, Arizona; Atlanta, Georgia; Ft. Lauderdale,
Florida; Albany and New York, New York; Walled Lake, Michigan; Beltsville,
Maryland; Chantilly and Richmond, Virginia; Edison, New Jersey; Las Vegas,
Nevada; Durham, North Carolina; and Waitsfield, Vermont. In October 2000, we
closed our offices in Los Angeles, California; Atlanta, Georgia; Ft. Lauderdale,
Florida; Chantilly, Virginia; Las Vegas, Nevada and Durham, North Carolina. Our
plan is to sublease these facilities to third parties until the leases expire.
We lease a 2,500 square foot training facility in Pleasanton, California. We
lease a facility that is
45
47

approximately 31,500 square feet in Calgary, Canada that contains both office
space and a data center, a 28,000 square foot facility in Toronto, Canada and a
3,000 square foot facility in London, Canada. We also lease facilities in
Montreal and Quebec City, Canada. We lease 9,000 square feet of office space in
Newbury, United Kingdom and a facility in Edinburgh, United Kingdom. Our leases
have expiration dates ranging from 2000 to 2010. We believe our facilities are
adequate for our current operations and that we can obtain additional leased
space if needed.

EMPLOYEES

As of October 19, 2000 we employed 683 persons, including 290 information
technicians, 192 sales and marketing personnel and 201 administration and
management staff. We have never experienced work stoppages, and we are not a
party to any collective bargaining agreement. We believe our employee
relationships to be generally good.

LITIGATION AND OTHER PROCEEDINGS

From time to time we are a defendant or plaintiff in litigation arising in
the ordinary course of our business. To date, other than the SmallCaps OnLine
Group LLC litigation and the subsequent settlement of that action, no litigation
has had a material effect on us and, as of the date of this prospectus, we are
not a party to any material litigation except as described below.

In the past, persons formerly associated with us, which may include one or
more of our former executive officers and directors, may have engaged in
activities as part of an effort to profit from unlawful trading activity in our
stock. We are aware that in October 1998, the SEC announced the filing of an
enforcement action against the publisher of an Internet newsletter called The
Future Superstock, written by Jeffrey Bruss. According to the SEC's litigation
release, the SEC's complaint alleged that The Future Superstock recommended to
the newsletter's more than 100,000 subscribers and to visitors to the
newsletter's website the purchase of approximately 25 microcap stocks which it
predicted to double or triple in the next three to twelve months. According to
the SEC's release, in most instances, the prices of recommended securities
increased for a short period of time after The Future Superstock newsletter made
a recommendation, after which the prices of those stocks dropped substantially.
The SEC alleged that in making its recommendations, the Internet newsletter:

- failed to adequately disclose compensation it had received from profiled
companies,

- failed to disclose that it had sold stock in many of the issuers it
recommended shortly after disseminating such recommendation,

- had conducted little, if any, research into companies it recommended, and

- made false and misleading statements about the success of certain prior
stock picks.

According to press reports, Jeffrey C. Bruss claimed that he received $300,000
from us to promote our stock. The SEC sought civil penalties against the
publisher of the newsletter. The SEC did not bring any action against us. We
believe that we made no payments to Mr. Bruss, but one or more persons who were
associated with our predecessor company prior to 1998 may have made payments. We
are unable to determine whether, as a result of the alleged activities of Mr.
Bruss, any stockholder suffered any losses for which we might be liable.

In addition, we recently received a subpoena from the SEC requesting any
documentation in our possession with respect to a confidential investigation
regarding Internet newsletters. This investigation relates to the use of the
Internet to engage in fraudulent transactions with respect to the offer,
purchase and sale of securities. We have responded to the SEC's request for
documents.

As a result of these activities, we may be subject to civil or criminal
actions, fines or penalties. If any proceedings are commenced against us, we
will need to spend significant money and management time on our defense. If we
participated in these activities, we could be liable for damages or penalties
that would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of
operations and liquidity. See "Risk

Factors -- Persons formerly associated with our business may have engaged in
activities designed to manipulate our stock."

SmallCaps OnLine Group LLC, previously known as Bridge Technology Group
LLC, sued us on January 12, 2000 in the New York County Supreme Court to recover
fees we allegedly owed for advisory and investor relations services. SmallCaps'
complaint requested compensation for fees totaling $5.1 million, as well as
warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,289,689 shares of our common stock at
exercise prices ranging from $1.00 to $8.50 per share. The total value of the
damages SmallCaps claimed was $110.0 million. On February 11, 2000, we settled
SmallCaps' complaint by agreeing to pay SmallCaps $5.0 million on or before
March 14, 2000, and to issue to SmallCaps warrants to purchase an aggregate of
3,000,000 shares of our common stock at exercise prices ranging from $8.50 to
$22.50 per share, subject to anti-dilution protection. We issued the warrants to
SmallCaps on March 1, 2000 and paid SmallCaps the $5.0 million on March 14,
2000. Since the issuance of these warrants, their exercise prices have been
adjusted and now range from $8.33 to $22.05 per share and these warrants
currently entitle the holder to acquire 3,061,379 shares of our common stock.
The total value of the settlement on February 11, 2000 was $65.0 million which
has been recorded in our financial statements as a charge to paid-in capital.

On November 6, 1998, our former Chief Executive Officer and a director, Mr.
Cameron Chell, entered into a Settlement Agreement with The Alberta Stock
Exchange to resolve a pending investigation into Mr. Chell's alleged breaches of
Alberta Stock Exchange rules and by-laws. As part of the Settlement Agreement,
Mr. Chell acknowledged that he had breached certain duties of supervision,
disclosure, or compliance relating to various offers and sales of securities,
and Mr. Chell was prohibited from receiving Alberta Stock Exchange approval in
any capacity for a five year period, subjected to a CDN$25,000 fine and a three
year period of enhanced supervision. We cannot be certain that the Settlement
Agreement with the Alberta Stock Exchange ends all proceedings with regard to
these matters.

On January 20, 2000, we commenced a proceeding in Canada against Mr. Chell,
various other former employees of and consultants to our company and various
other defendants alleging that these defendants misappropriated a corporate
opportunity in breach of fiduciary and contractual obligations. Most of these
defendants made counterclaims against us seeking, among other things, damages
for interference with their economic interests and for severance compensation in
the form of cash and stock options. We entered into a settlement agreement with
the defendants effective April 26, 2000 that has the following key terms:

- Mr. Chell will be entitled to exercise options to acquire 175,000 shares
of common stock that were scheduled to vest June 1, 2000,

- Mr. Chell or his nominee shall pay to us $400,000 in settlement of a
related party debt that involved Mr. Chell, and

- All other claims will be dropped by all parties, who have provided mutual
releases, with the claim and counterclaims to be discontinued.

On January 26, 2000, Michael Chan filed a suit in the Court of Queen's
Bench of Alberta, Judicial District of Calgary alleging that FutureLink Alberta
breached its contract to deliver him options to purchase 250,000 Class "A"
common shares of FutureLink Alberta at $1.00 per share. Mr. Chan seeks 50,000
shares of our common stock or, alternatively, damages of approximately $1.5
million in cash, general damages of approximately $200,000 and punitive damages
of approximately $200,000. We have filed a Statement of Defense in this action
refuting Mr. Chan's claims.

On July 12, 2000, Integrated Solutions Corp. filed a Statement of Claim in
the Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta, Judicial District of Calgary, against
FutureLink Alberta and Brian Greenlaw, a former employee of Integrated
Solutions, Inc., and a current employee of FutureLink Alberta. The Statement of
Claim alleges that FutureLink Alberta induced Mr. Greenlaw to breach an
employment agreement with Integrated Solutions, Inc. and to disclose to
FutureLink Alberta confidential information. Integrated Solutions, Inc. is
seeking to recover $1.5 million from FutureLink Alberta and Mr. Greenlaw,
jointly.

OPTION GRANTS IN LAST FISCAL YEAR

The following table provides information related to options granted to our
named executive officers during fiscal year ended December 31, 1999. The
information in this table reflects options granted under our Amended and
Restated Stock Option Plan. We granted options to purchase 6,559,000 shares of
our common stock to our employees and directors in 1999. We granted all options
at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the
date of grant as determined based on the closing price of our common stock on
the day preceding the grant, except options granted to Mr. Holmes on May 14,
1999, which grant has an exercise price based on the average closing bid and ask
prices for the ten trading days prior to the date of the grant. The options
granted on May 14, 1999 have an exercise price that is 74% of the market value
of the common stock on such date, on which date the average of the closing bid
and ask price was $6.72. Options granted to our named executive officers during
the 1999 fiscal year vest in either three or four yearly increments and expire
between March 2000 and June 2004.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

We have entered into employment agreements with each of our named executive
officers. Each agreement provides for a fixed base salary and an annual
performance bonus that our compensation committee or the board of directors
determines.

Our employment agreements with Mr. Ladouceur and Mr. Kilambi are at-will
and either party can terminate the agreement at any time. Mr. Ladouceur's and
Mr. Kilambi's employment agreements provide that if there is a change in our
control, and either of them is terminated without just cause within six months
of a change in control of us, his level of responsibility or compensation is
reduced and he elects within six months of such change in control to treat his
employment as terminated, or he elects within three months of such change in
control to terminate his employment, we must pay him an amount equal to one
year's salary, his most recent performance bonus, and one year's premium
contributions to our employee benefit plan paid on his behalf, provide up to
$10,000 in relocation and financial consulting services, or, at his option, pay
him $10,000, and cause his unvested stock options to accelerate and become
exercisable for three months. If we terminate either Mr. Ladouceur's or Mr.
Kilambi's employment without just cause or change his level of responsibility,
and he elects to terminate, we must pay him an amount equal to one year's
salary, his most recent performance bonus, and one year's premium contributions
to our employee benefit plan paid on his behalf, and provide him with up to
$10,000 in relocation and financial consulting services or, at his option, pay
him $10,000.

Mr. Ladouceur's employment agreement provides for an annual base salary of
$200,000, and he is eligible to earn an annual performance bonus of up to
$400,000.

Mr. Holmes' employment agreement provides for an annual base salary of
$200,000. Mr. Holmes is also entitled to receive a minimum bonus of $50,000 each
quarter and is eligible to receive a discretionary bonus to be determined by the
board of directors. His agreement also provides for 18 months severance pay
(including the minimum bonus for such period), if we terminate Mr. Holmes
without cause, his employment is terminated within 18 months of a change of our
control, or Mr. Holmes voluntarily

54
56

terminates because we materially reduce his duties or his compensation, or we
move his place of business out of Orange County, California.

Mr. Kilambi's employment agreement provides for an annual base salary of
$180,000, and he is eligible to earn an annual bonus of up to $180,000.

Mr. Romano, who is no longer an employee, had a three-year employment
agreement commencing August 1999 that provided for an annual base salary of
$180,000. He was eligible to earn an annual bonus of up to $180,000. Upon
commencement of his employment, Mr. Romano received a signing bonus of $95,000,
a one time payment of $5,000 to cover certain fees relating to his joining us,
and 250,000 stock options. His employment agreement provided for a separate loan
agreement between us and Mr. Romano under which we loaned Mr. Romano $2.0
million at an annual interest rate of 5.625% to purchase 232,829 shares of our
common stock. The loan was to be forgiven in quarterly installments of $250,000.
In October 1999, we forgave the first installment of $250,000 of this loan,
comprising most of Mr. Romano's "other compensation" in 1999. On June 30, 2000
the Company and the employee agreed to terminate the loan agreement and cancel
the issuance of any further shares. In addition, the employee returned 14,212 of
these shares to the Company valued at the then current market price of $129,000
in settlement of an employee advance. On July 31, 2000, the Company and Mr.
Romano agreed to terminate the employment agreement for a settlement amount of
$30,000.

STOCK OPTION PLAN

Our Stock Option Plan became effective on June 29, 1998, and we amended it
on each of November 30, 1998, September 23, 1999, November 17, 1999, December
10, 1999 and June 27, 2000. Our Stock Option Plan provides for the issuance of
incentive and non-qualified Stock options and deferred stock compensation. The
aggregate number of shares which may be issued upon the exercise of options
under the Stock Option Plan may not exceed twenty percent of our shares of
common stock issued and outstanding on a fully diluted basis.

Our board of directors administers our Stock Option Plan. Generally, our
board may amend or terminate our Stock Option Plan if it does not cause any
adverse affect on any then outstanding options or unexercised portions of any
then outstanding options. Our board of directors must obtain the consent of the
stockholders to increase the number of shares that the Stock Option Plan covers,
to change the class of persons eligible to receive options, or to extend the
term of the Stock Option Plan beyond 10 years. Our board of directors sets the
consideration for each option award. All options must have an exercise price
equal to at least 85% of the fair market value of the underlying common stock on
the date of the grant. Incentive stock options must have an exercise price equal
to at least 100% of the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the
date of the grant, and options granted to a person who owns more than 10% of the
voting power of our outstanding stock and any outstanding stock of our
subsidiaries must have an exercise price equal to at least 110% of the fair
market value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant.

Options granted under the Stock Option Plan are non-transferable except
through will or the laws of descent and distribution upon the death of the
option holder. If we liquidate, reorganize, merge or consolidate and we are not
the surviving entity, each outstanding stock option shall become exercisable
prior to such event unless the options are assumed in a merger.

401(k) PLAN

We assumed several 401(k) plans as a result of our acquisitions in 1999,
all of which have been rolled into one plan. The 401(k) plans covers our
full-time U.S. employees. It is intended to qualify under Section 401(k) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986 so that we can deduct any contributions that we
make to the plan at the time they are made. The plan provides that employees may
elect to reduce their current compensation by up to the statutorily prescribed
annual limit and have the amount of such

55
57

reduction contributed to the plan. The plan permits us, but does not require us
to make, additional matching contributions on behalf of all participants in the
plan. Although we have not made any contributions to the plan to date, we have
instituted an employee contribution plan under which we shall match 100% of the
amounts each employee contributes to the plan, up to 5% of the employee's annual
compensation. We also operate a defined contribution pension plan on behalf of
our directors and employees in the United Kingdom.

LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION MATTERS

Our certificate of incorporation provides that, to the fullest extent the
Delaware General Corporation Law permits, our directors shall not be personally
liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary
duty as a director. Under Delaware law, the directors have a fiduciary duty to
us that this provision of our certificate does not eliminate and, in appropriate
circumstances, equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms of
non-monetary relief will remain available. In addition, each director will
continue to be subject to liability under Delaware law for breach of the
director's duty of loyalty to us for acts or omissions which a court of
competent jurisdiction finds to be not in good faith or that involve intentional
misconduct, or knowing violations of law, for actions leading to improper
personal benefit to the director, and for payment of dividends or approval of
stock repurchases or redemptions that Delaware law prohibits. This provision
also does not affect the director's responsibilities under any other laws, such
as federal securities laws.

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law empowers a corporation
to indemnify its directors and officers and to purchase insurance with respect
to liability arising out of their capacity or status as directors and officers,
provided that this provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a
director:

- for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to a corporation or its
stockholders,

- for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of law,

- arising under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law as a
result of unlawful payments of dividends or stock purchases or
redemptions, or

- for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
benefit.

Delaware law provides further that the indemnification that Delaware law
permits is not exclusive of any other rights to which the directors and officers
may be entitled under a corporation's bylaws, any agreement, a vote of
stockholders or otherwise. Our bylaws provide that we shall indemnify, to the
maximum extent and in the manner the Delaware General Corporation Law permits,
any person against expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and
amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred as a result of any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding in which such person
was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party by reason of the fact that
such person is or was our director or officer, or is or was serving at our
request as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise, or is or was a director or officer of a
corporation which was our predecessor corporation or of another enterprise at
the request of such predecessor corporation.

We have insured our directors, officers, employees and agents and persons
serving at our request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any
liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such
capacity or arising out of such person's status as such, regardless of whether
indemnification would be permitted under Delaware law.

56
58

CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF DELAWARE LAW

We are a Delaware corporation, and the provisions of Section 203 of the
Delaware General Corporation Law, an anti-takeover law, apply to us. In general,
the statute prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a
business combination with an interested stockholder for a period of three years
after the date of the transaction by which that person became an interested
stockholder, unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner.
For purposes of Section 203, a business combination includes a merger, asset
sale or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested
stockholder, and an interested stockholder is a person who, together with
affiliates and associates, owns, or within three years prior, did own 15% or
more of our voting stock.

57
59

PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS

The following table sets forth specified information with respect to the
beneficial ownership of our common stock and our Series A preferred stock as of
August 30, 2000 by:

- each person or group of affiliated persons that we know beneficially owns
5% or more of our outstanding shares of common stock or Series A
preferred stock,

- each of our directors,

- each of our named executive officers, and

- all of our directors and executive officers as a group.

Shares and percentages beneficially owned are based upon 67,913,524 shares
of common stock outstanding and 1,428,571 shares of Series A preferred stock
outstanding on August 30, 2000, together with options, warrants or other
convertible securities that are exercisable for such respective securities
within 60 days of August 30, 2000 for each stockholder. Under the rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission, beneficial ownership includes shares over
which the named stockholder exercises voting and/or investment power. Shares of
common stock or Series A preferred stock subject to options, warrants or other
convertible securities that are currently exercisable or will become exercisable
within 60 days of August 30, 2000 are deemed outstanding for computing the
respective percentage ownership of the person holding the option, warrant or
other convertible security, but are not deemed outstanding for purposes of
computing the respective percentage ownership of any other person. Unless
otherwise indicated in the footnotes below, we believe that the persons and
entities named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect
to all shares beneficially owned, subject to applicable community property laws.

concentration of ownership also may delay, defer or prevent a change in our
control, and make some transactions more difficult or impossible without the
support of these stockholders. These transactions might include proxy contests,
mergers, tender offers, open market purchase programs or other purchases of
common stock that could give our stockholders the opportunity to realize a
premium over the then prevailing market price of our common stock.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

In 1997, Mr. Chell loaned FutureLink Alberta, approximately $137,000 at an
annual interest rate equal to the prime rate plus 1%. FutureLink Alberta repaid
the entire balance of the loan between April and June 1998.

On January 20, 1998, Core Ventures, Inc., our predecessor-in-interest,
purchased 46% of FutureLink Alberta in exchange for 308,000 shares of our common
stock. On November 23, 1998, Core Ventures purchased another 50.4% of FutureLink
Alberta in exchange for 334,755 shares of our common stock, and on February 26,
1999, it acquired the remaining 3.6% of FutureLink Alberta in exchange for
23,500 shares of our common stock. Cameron Chell was the President and Chief
Executive Officer of FutureLink Alberta, and after the first purchase in January
1998, Mr. Chell became our President, a director and a significant stockholder.
Mr. Chell resigned as our President and a director effective August 27, 1999.

Mr. Chell and Robert Kubbernus were directors and holders of stock of both
us and JAWS Technology Inc. at the time we entered into an Alliance Partner
Agreement dated February 12, 1999.

On August 12, 1998, Mr. Chell loaned us approximately $145,000 at an annual
interest rate of 8%. On February 22, 1999, we issued Mr. Chell a convertible
debenture in the principal amount of approximately $150,000, the outstanding
balance of his loan to us. This convertible debenture was convertible at $2.00
per share after adjustment for our five-for-one reverse stock split, for a total
of 75,310 shares. Mr. Chell also received a warrant to acquire 75,310 shares at
$2.00 per share for the first year, $3.00 per share for the second year, and
$4.00 per share for the third year. On April 29, 1999, Mr. Chell surrendered his
debenture having an outstanding balance of approximately $153,000, our notes
payable having an outstanding balance of approximately $67,000 and our trade
loans payable having an outstanding balance of $30,000 in return for a $250,000
aggregate principal amount 8% convertible note convertible at $1.50 per share
and a warrant to acquire 125,000 shares at $1.50 per share. We reduced the
conversion and exercise prices for these securities from $1.50 per share to
$1.335 per share due to the effect of anti-dilution provisions. Mr. Chell has
exercised and converted all of these securities.

In May 1999, Commonwealth Associates privately placed our units consisting
of 8% senior subordinated convertible notes convertible to shares of common
stock at $1.00 per share after adjustment for our five-for-one reverse stock
split and warrants to purchase 500 shares of common stock at $1.25 per share
after adjustment for our five-for-one reverse stock split for each $1,000
invested. Mr. Chell purchased $250,000 of our units and Mr. Kilambi purchased
$127,500 of our units.

Michael Falk, Chief Executive Officer of Commonwealth Associates, L.P. was
appointed to our board of directors on May 7, 1999 following the consummation of
the private placement of our securities concluded in April 1999 for which we
retained Commonwealth Associates as our placement agent. We subsequently
retained Commonwealth Associates as placement agent on July 1, 1999.

As of December 31, 1999, we had provided $550,000 in services and products
to Willson Stationers Ltd. and e-Supplies Inc. At December 31, 1999, $543,000
remained due from these entities. An allowance for doubtful accounts was
recorded for the entire amount because of the uncertainty of collection. We
settled this account in June 2000 for $400,000. Mr. Chell was a director of both
companies at the time some of the transactions took place. In addition, we have
reason to believe that Mr. Chell was a principal of e-Supplies Inc., at the time
of the transactions. Mr. Kilambi served on the board of directors of Willson
Stationers, Ltd., as our representative, at the request of Willson Stationers,
Ltd., for approximately one month in early 1999.

On August 1, 1999, the Company loaned $2.0 million to an executive with
recourse, which was then used by the executive to purchase 232,829 common shares
of the Company. The loan receivable was recorded as a reduction of stockholders'
equity, and $250,000 of the principal amount of the loan was to be forgiven on a
quarterly basis. The shares had been escrowed and were to be released from
escrow on a quarterly basis commencing January 1, 2000. The Company released
87,349 of these shares to the

61
63

employee. During the six months ended June 30, 2000, the Company recognized
$250,000 as salary expense relating to the services received from the employee
in relation to the loan agreement. On June 30, 2000, the Company and the
employee agreed to terminate the loan agreement and cancel the issuance of any
further shares. In addition, the employee returned 14,212 of these shares to the
Company valued at the then current market price of $129,000 in settlement of an
employee advance.

In October 1999, we issued warrants to acquire 1,658,350 shares of common
stock to Pequot Private Equity Fund II, L.P., Pequot Partners Fund and Pequot
International Fund, which, after giving effect to anti-dilution adjustments
since their issuance, entitled the holders to purchase 1,678,139 shares of
common stock at $8.40 per share. On February 29, 2000, the funds exercised their
warrants to acquire all 1,678,139 shares of our common stock, with net proceeds
to us of approximately $12.6 million, taking into account the warrant exercise
fee of $0.90 for each warrant exercised. On April 28, 2000, in a private
placement we issued to Pequot Private Equity Fund II, L.P. and Pequot Endowment
Fund, L.P. for just under $15.0 million, 1,764,704 shares of common stock and
warrants which currently allow the holders to purchase 452,916 shares of common
stock at a purchase price of $9.01 per share. Pequot Capital Management, Inc.
manages the funds and therefore has the power to direct the vote of the common
stock that the funds hold, which constitute more than 5% of our outstanding
common stock both before and after this warrant exercise. In addition, James
McNiel, one of our directors, is a Senior Vice President at Pequot Capital
Management, Inc., and Gerald Poch, also a director, is a Manager
Director/Portfolio Manager at Pequot Capital Management, Inc.

The two securities purchase agreements we have entered into with the Pequot
funds and two other institutional investors restrict us and our material
subsidiaries without the prior written consent of the Pequot funds from:

- completing any merger, acquisition or sale of assets if our assets or
revenues are likely to be increased or decreased by 25% or more,

- buying any of our equity securities with a fair market value in excess of
$5.0 million, or

- changing the business in which we are currently engaged.

These restrictions will no longer apply at the earliest to occur of:

- the investors under these securities purchase agreements hold less than
5% of our fully-diluted common stock,

- the investors under these securities purchase agreements no longer have
the right to nominate any of our directors under these agreements, and

- October 15, 2002.

On May 26, 2000, Glen Holmes, our President and Chief Operating Officer and
one of our directors, granted to us an option to purchase 600,000 shares of
common stock at $5.50 per share, the fair market value at the date of grant. We
may only exercise this option to the extent employees to whom we granted
reciprocal options exercise those options.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

The following table sets forth the names of each selling stockholder, the
aggregate number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by each selling
stockholder as of August 30, 2000, and the aggregate number of shares of common
stock that each selling stockholder may offer and sell pursuant to this
prospectus. Because each selling stockholder may offer all or a portion of the
shares of common stock offered by this prospectus at any time and from time to
time after the date hereof, no estimate can be made of the number of shares that
each selling stockholder may retain upon completion of this offering. However,
assuming all of the shares offered by this prospectus are sold by the selling
stockholders, then unless otherwise noted, after completion of this offering,
none of the selling stockholders will own more than one percent of the shares of
common stock outstanding.

Of the 3,025,350 shares of common stock offered by this prospectus,
2,698,562 shares are issued and outstanding as of August 30, 2000 and 326,788
shares have been reserved for issuance by us to certain selling stockholders
upon the exercise of outstanding common stock warrants. We are registering all
of the shares of common stock offered for sale pursuant to this prospectus
pursuant to certain registration rights obligations.

In the following table, we have calculated shares of common stock
beneficially owned based upon 67,913,524 shares of common stock outstanding on
August 30, 2000, together with options, warrants or other convertible securities
that are exercisable within 60 days of August 30, 2000 for each stockholder.
Under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, beneficial ownership
includes shares over which the named stockholder exercises voting and/or
investment power. Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes below, we believe
that the persons and entities named in the table have sole voting and investment
power with respect to all shares beneficially owned, subject to applicable
community property laws. The information with respect to beneficial ownership of
common stock held by each person is based upon record ownership data provided by
our transfer agent, information as supplied or confirmed by selling
stockholders, based upon statements filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, or based upon our actual knowledge. Although we have asked each of
the selling stockholders to advise us as to their current share ownership, not
all have done so.

63
65

Except as noted in the footnotes to the table below, within the past three
years, none of the selling stockholders have held any position or office with us
or entered into a material relationship with us.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We are registering the shares of common stock offered for sale by this
prospectus on behalf of the selling stockholders. As used in this section,
"selling stockholders" includes donees, pledgees, distributees, transferees or
other successors-in-interest, including, without limitation, their respective
affiliates and limited or general partners, all of which are referred to as a
group below as transferees, or certain counterparties to derivative transactions
with the selling stockholders or transferees. The selling stockholders will act
independently of us in making decisions with respect to the timing, manner and
size of each sale. We will pay all costs, expenses and fees in connection with
the registration of the shares. The selling stockholders will pay all brokerage
commissions, underwriting discounts, commissions, transfer taxes and other
similar selling expenses, if any, associated with the sale of the shares of
common stock by them.

Shares of common stock may be sold by the selling stockholders from time to
time in one or more types of transactions (which may include block transactions)
on Nasdaq or on any other market on which our common stock may from time to time
be trading, in the over-the-counter market, in privately-negotiated
transactions, through put or call options transactions relating to the shares,
through short sales of such shares, or a combination of such methods of sale, at
market prices prevailing at the time of sale, fixed prices, varying prices
determined at the time of sale or at negotiated prices. The selling stockholders
will have the sole discretion not to accept any purchase offer or make any sale
of shares if they deem the purchase price to be unsatisfactory at any particular
time. Such transactions may or may not involve brokers or dealers. To the best
of our knowledge, none of the selling stockholders have entered into any
agreements, understandings or arrangements with any underwriters or
broker-dealers regarding the sale of their securities, nor is there an
underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale
of shares of common stock offered by this prospectus; however, the selling
stockholders may enter into agreements, understandings or arrangements with an
underwriter or broker-dealer regarding the sale of their shares in the future.

The selling stockholders may effect such transactions by selling shares of
common stock directly to purchasers or to or through broker-dealers, which may
act as agents or principals, or other agents. Such broker-dealers or other
agents may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions, or
commissions from the selling stockholders and/or the purchasers of shares of
common stock for whom such broker-dealers or other agents may act as agents or
to whom they sell as principal, or both (which compensation as to a particular
broker-dealer or other agent might be in excess of customary commissions).
Market makers and block purchasers purchasing the shares will do so for their
own account and at their own risk. It is possible that a selling stockholder
will attempt to sell shares of common stock in block transactions to market
makers or other purchasers at a price per share which may be below the

65
67

then market price. There can be no assurance that all or any part of the shares
offered hereby will be sold by the selling stockholders.

The selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with
broker-dealers or other financial institutions with respect to the shares. In
connection with these transactions, broker-dealers or other financial
institutions may engage in short sales of the shares in the course of hedging
the positions they assume with the selling stockholders. The selling
stockholders may also sell the shares short and redeliver the shares to close
out the short positions. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or
other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions which
require the delivery to the broker-dealer or other financial institutions of the
shares. The selling stockholders may also loan or pledge the shares to a
financial institution or a broker-dealer and the financial institution or the
broker-dealer may sell the shares loaned or upon a default the financial
institution or the broker-dealer may effect sales of the pledged shares.

The selling stockholders and any brokers, dealers or agents that
participate in connection with the sale of shares of common stock might be
deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933,
and any commissions received by such brokers, dealers or agents and any profit
on the resale of the shares sold by them while acting as principals might be
deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act. We
have agreed to indemnify some of the selling stockholders against certain
liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act. The selling
stockholders may agree to indemnify any agent, dealer, broker-dealer or
underwriter that participates in transactions involving sales of the shares of
common stock offered pursuant to this prospectus against certain liabilities,
including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

Because the selling stockholders may be deemed to be "underwriters" within
the meaning of the Securities Act, the selling stockholders will be subject to
the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act and the rules
promulgated thereunder and they may be subject to certain statutory liabilities
under the Securities Act, including, but not limited to, Sections 11, 12 and 17
of the Securities Act and Rule 10b-5 under the Securities Exchange Act. In
addition, the selling stockholders and any other person participating in the
offering will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act
and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M under the
Securities Exchange Act, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales.
These restrictions may affect the marketability of the common stock and the
ability of any person to engage in market-making activities with respect to the
common stock.

Any shares of common stock covered by this prospectus which qualify for
sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144
rather than under the terms of this prospectus. In addition, subject to
applicable state and foreign laws, the selling stockholders may sell their
common stock outside the United States pursuant to Rules 903 and 904 of
Regulation S under the Securities Act.

To comply with the securities laws of certain jurisdictions, the shares of
common stock offered by this prospectus may need to be offered or sold only
through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain
jurisdictions, the shares of common stock may not be offered or sold unless they
have been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption is available and
complied with.

If a selling stockholder notifies us that any material arrangement has been
entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of shares of common stock through
a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution
or a purchase by a broker, dealer or underwriter, we will file a supplement to
this prospectus, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act.
In addition, to the extent required, we will amend or supplement this prospectus
to disclose other material arrangements regarding the plan of distribution.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

Our authorized capital stock consists of 300 million shares of common
stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and 20 million shares of preferred stock, no
par value.

The following is a summary of certain provisions of our common stock,
preferred stock, certificate of incorporation and bylaws. Copies of our articles
and bylaws are available from us upon request.

COMMON STOCK

As of August 30, 2000, there were 67,913,524 shares of common stock
outstanding, held by 726 shareholders of record. All outstanding shares of
common stock are, and the common stock to be issued in this offering will be,
fully paid and nonassessable.

Each share of our common stock has identical rights and privileges in every
respect. The holders of our common stock are entitled to vote upon all matters
submitted to a vote of our shareholders and are entitled to one vote for each
share of common stock held. There are no cumulative voting rights.

The holders of our common stock are entitled to share equally in dividends
and other distributions that our board of directors may declare from time to
time out of funds legally available for that purpose, if any, after the
satisfaction of any prior rights and preferences of any outstanding preferred
stock.

If we liquidate, dissolve or wind up, the holders of shares of common stock
will be entitled to share ratably in the distribution of all of our assets
remaining available for distribution after satisfaction of all our liabilities
and the payment of the liquidation preference of any outstanding preferred
stock.

The holders of our common stock have no preemptive or other subscription
rights to purchase shares of our stock, nor are they entitled to the benefits of
any redemption or sinking fund provisions.

PREFERRED STOCK

As of August 30, 2000, there were 1,428,571 shares of Series A preferred
stock outstanding, all held by Microsoft Corporation. In addition, we granted to
Microsoft Corporation a warrant to purchase 1,142,857 shares of Series A
preferred stock at a purchase price of $7.00 per share. The shares of
outstanding Series A preferred stock and the warrant to purchase additional
shares of Series A preferred stock are each subject to provisions which provide
anti-dilution protection. Each share of Series A preferred stock is initially
convertible into 1 share of common stock. Additionally, each share of Series A
preferred stock is entitled to a preferential distribution on liquidation of the
greater of $7.00 per share or their pro rata, as if converted into common stock,
value of the assets to be distributed, a cumulative preference on dividends of
$0.56 per annum and certain redemption rights. Both of these preferential
amounts are paid prior to any payment to the holders of common stock. The Series
A preferred stock is entitled to vote on all matters presented to the holders of
common stock as if the Series A preferred stock were converted into common
stock. Additionally, certain actions which impact the rights of the holders of
Series A preferred stock, require a 2/3 approval of all holders of Series A
preferred stock voting as a class.

Our board of directors, has the authority to issue an additional 17,428,572
shares of preferred stock in one or more series, and fix for each series, the
designation of, and number of shares to be included in, each such series. Our
board of directors is also authorized to set the powers, privileges,
preferences, and relative participating, optional or other rights, if any, of
the shares of each such series and the qualifications, limitations or
restrictions of the shares of each such series.

Unless our board of directors provides otherwise, the shares of all series
of preferred stock will rank on a parity with respect to the payment of
dividends and to the distribution of assets upon liquidation. Any issuance by us
of shares of our preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or
preventing a change of our control or an unsolicited acquisition proposal. The
issuance of preferred stock also could decrease the amount of earnings and
assets available for distribution to the holders of common stock or could
adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of the holders
of common stock.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

The holders of an aggregate of 49,900,124 shares of common stock that are
either outstanding or issuable upon the exercise of warrants, or the exchange of
outstanding shares of one of our subsidiaries, or their transferees or the
conversion of other convertible securities are entitled to certain rights with
respect to the registration of such shares under the Securities Act. This
aggregate number of shares of common stock includes the shares of common stock
offered for sale by this prospectus.

We agreed to file a registration statement by April 30, 2000 in respect of
1,207,867 shares of common stock issued on exercise of warrants or issued for
services that Thomson Kernaghan & Co. Limited provided. Nearly all of these
shares are eligible for resale under Rule 144 as of April 26, 2000. Additional
shares that this entity holds have registration rights which must be waived if
the underwriter of a public offering advises us to limit such rights. After May
1, 2000, Thomson Kernaghan and Co. Limited may demand that we file a
registration statement for their shares, and on or thereafter, we must use our
reasonable best efforts to effect such registration. As of September 15, 2000
Thomson Kernaghan and Co. Limited has not made such demand.

Under the terms of various subscription agreements, we agreed to file a
registration statement by September 7, 1999, covering securities issued in May
1999 to Commonwealth Associates, L.P. and various other investors, and to use
our best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective by
November 3, 1999. As of August 30, 2000, 2,824,803 shares of common stock and
275,091 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants
were subject to those rights. The effective registration statement of which this
prospectus is a part satisfies our obligation with respect to a portion of these
shares. The holder of 2,433,828 shares of common stock and 21,285 shares of
common stock issuable upon the exercise of warrants has waived its registration
rights with respect to this offering.

Under the terms of certain other subscription agreements, we agreed to file
a registration statement by April 1, 2000 covering securities issued in July
1999 to Commonwealth Associates, L.P. and various other investors, and to use
our best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective as
soon as practicable thereafter. As of August 30, 2000, 2,728,083 shares of
common stock and 3,219,767 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of
warrants were entitled to those rights.

The holders of 9,806,480 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase
452,916 shares of common stock issued to these investors in our October 1999 and
April 2000 private placements may make up to two demands after April 15, 2000
that we file a registration statement covering at least 3% of our outstanding
shares of common stock, or the number of shares of common stock that have a
combined market value of at least $5.0 million. The holders of 3,450,174 shares
of common stock and warrants to purchase 1,699,572 shares of common stock
acquired in October 1999 have the same registration rights as Pequot Private
Equity Fund II, L.P. and the other investors. Pequot Private Equity Fund II,
L.P. and two other holders of shares or warrants issued in the October 1999 and
the April 2000 private placements have waived the registration rights of all
holders of such shares and warrants with regard to this offering.

At the same time we granted registration rights to Pequot Private Equity
Fund II, L.P. and other investors, we granted registration rights under the same
terms to the Holmes Trust and Glen C. Holmes, in respect of 8,400,000 securities
held by or currently issuable to them. Mr. Holmes has waived his registration
rights with respect to this offering.

We agreed to register 1,181,816 shares of common stock that the selling
stockholders of CN Networks, Inc. hold by November 5, 2000.

We agreed to register 1,738,555 shares of our common stock that the selling
stockholders of Async Technologies, Inc. hold by November 26, 2000.

We also agreed to register 1,026,316 shares of common stock that the
selling stockholders of Vertical Software, Inc. hold by January 31, 2001.

We also agreed to register 1,975,170 shares of common stock that the
selling stockholders of MicroLAN Systems, Inc., doing business as Madison
Technology Group, Madison Consulting Resources, Inc., and Madison Consulting
Resources NJ, Inc. hold by February 28, 2001.

We granted registration rights to SmallCaps OnLine Group LLC with respect
to 3,084,494 shares of our common stock underlying warrants we originally issued
to SmallCaps. SmallCaps and its assignees are entitled to register all or a
portion of these shares to the same extent we register shares that Pequot
Private Investment Fund II, L.P., or Commonwealth Associates, L.P. hold upon
exercise of registration rights we previously granted to such limited
partnerships.

We agreed to register 2,199,965 shares of common stock issuable upon the
exchange of exchangeable shares issued by one of our Canadian subsidiaries to
the selling stockholders of Charon Systems Inc. by December 19, 2000.

We granted Microsoft Corporation certain registration rights with respect
to the common stock issuable upon conversion of the 1,428,571 shares of Series A
preferred stock and Series A preferred stock issuable upon the exercise of a
warrant to acquire an additional 1,142,857 shares of Series A convertible
preferred stock.

We intend to fulfill our registration obligations as described above by
filing one or more registration statements with the Securities and Exchange
Commission after the date of this prospectus.

WARRANTS

In addition to the warrants that we granted to Microsoft Corporation which
are discussed above, as of August 30, 2000, there were warrants outstanding to
purchase 8,053,118 shares of our common stock. The warrants have exercise prices
ranging from $1.05 per share to $24.38 per share. The weighted average exercise
price of all currently outstanding warrants is $11.49 per share. The warrants
have various expiration dates, ranging from July 2001 to April 2006. Most
outstanding warrants have anti-dilution protection, and most provide for
registration rights.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

Future sales of a substantial amount of our common stock in the public
market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect
the market price of our common stock. A reduction in the market price of our
common stock could lower the value of our common stock or other securities and
could impair our future ability to raise capital through the sale of equity
securities.

The following is a discussion of when and how most of our stock may become
publicly tradable in the future. Except as otherwise noted, all of the following
information is as of August 30, 2000.

OUTSTANDING COMMON STOCK

As of August 30, 2000, we had 67,913,524 shares of common stock issued and
outstanding, of which approximately 18.0 million shares are freely trading or
eligible to trade. The remaining 50.2 million shares are considered "restricted
securities" under the Securities Act; however, we have agreed to register for
resale substantially all of these shares from time to time.

Approximately 42.0 million of the currently issued shares of common stock
are subject to lockup restrictions that prohibit their public sale prior to late
December 2000.

We issued 5.9 million of the outstanding shares of common stock in recently
completed acquisitions pursuant to private placement transactions exempt from
securities registration. Pursuant to the various acquisition agreements, these
shares were also subject to lock-up agreements which will be released in stages
over the next three years. The earliest any of these shares may be offered for
public sale is November 5, 2000.

COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON EXCHANGE OF SUBSIDIARY SHARES

Pursuant to the terms of the acquisition agreement for Charon Systems Inc.,
2.2 million shares of our common stock may be issued upon the exchange of shares
of our foreign subsidiary. These shares of common stock are "restricted
securities" under the Securities Act and are contractually restricted. They
represent a portion of the consideration we paid for such acquisition. The
shares are released from this contractual restriction in four stages from
December 2000 to May 2003. We are required to register these shares for resale
as they are released from this restriction or until they are eligible for resale
under Rule 144 whichever occurs first. Therefore, immediately upon release, all
the shares will be freely trading or eligible to trade.

WARRANTS FOR COMMON STOCK

We have outstanding warrants entitling holders to purchase 8.1 million
shares of our common stock at exercise prices between $1.05 and $24.38 per
share, with a weighted average exercise price of $11.49 per share. Of the total
shares of common stock underlying the warrants, 0.3 million are offered for
resale under this prospectus. We intend to register for resale substantially all
the shares of common stock underlying the warrants which are not offered for
resale pursuant to this prospectus in one or more registration statements filed
from time to time after the date of this prospectus. However, the public sale of
7.7 million shares of common stock underlying these warrants are subject to
lock-up restrictions preventing their public sale until at least December 2000.

The common stock underlying the common stock warrants offered for resale
under this prospectus may not be sold until the warrants are exercised and the
underlying shares are issued. The shares of common stock issued pursuant to the
exercise of the warrants are considered "restricted securities" under the
Securities Act. We do not anticipate that the warrant holders will exercise
their warrants unless and until the market price of our common stock exceeds the
exercise price of their respective warrants. Most of these warrants have
exercise prices above the trading price of our common stock on September 29,

70
72

2000. However, the exercise price for most of the warrants may be reduced under
certain circumstances based upon various anti-dilution protections applicable to
most of the warrants.

The following table sets forth the distribution of the current exercise
prices for the warrants for the purchase of the common stock offered for sale
pursuant to this prospectus. The exercise price for most of the warrants may be
reduced under certain circumstances based upon various antidilution protections
applicable to most of the warrants.

========= ===========

Only 15,000 shares of common stock underlying the warrants do not have
registration rights. Upon issuance, they will be considered "restricted
securities" under the Securities Act and may only be sold pursuant to an
exemption from registration, such as Rule 144.

COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF SERIES A PREFERRED

There are 2,571,428 shares of Series A preferred stock which are either
outstanding or are issuable upon the exercise of warrants for the purchase of
Series A preferred stock shares. The 2.6 million shares of our common stock
issuable upon conversion of this preferred stock will be registered for resale
on a subsequent registration statement.

OPTIONS

We have outstanding options to purchase 10.1 million shares of common stock
pursuant to employee benefit plans. However, these options may not be exercised
until vested. Options to purchase 2.2 million shares are currently exercisable
and options to purchase an additional 0.5 million shares will vest and become
exercisable between August 30 and December 15, 2000. However, 2.1 million of the
options that are exercisable as of August 30, 2000 or will become exercisable
prior to December 15, 2000 are held by our senior officers and directors and are
locked up until December 2000. The remaining options will vest and become
exercisable from time to time prior to August 2004. All of the shares of our
common stock issuable upon exercise of these options are registered under the
Securities Act and, upon exercise, will be freely tradable, subject to certain
limitations under Rule 144 for our affiliates.

71
73

RULE 144

In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person who has
beneficially owned restricted securities for at least one year, including
persons who may be deemed our "affiliates", would be entitled to sell within any
three-month period a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of 1% of
the number of shares of common stock then outstanding or the average weekly
trading volume of the common stock on all exchanges and/or reported through the
automated quotation system of a registered securities association during the
four calendar weeks immediately preceding the SEC filing with respect to such
sale. Manner of sale provisions, notice requirements and the availability of
current public information about us also apply to these sales. These limitations
apply to both restricted and unrestricted shares held by persons who are our
affiliates. If a person is not deemed to have been our affiliate at any time
during the 90 days immediately preceding the sale, he or she may sell his or her
restricted shares under Rule 144(k) without regard to the limitations described
above if at least two years have elapsed since the later of the date the shares
were acquired from us or from our affiliate. This paragraph summarizes Rule 144
and is not intended to be a complete description of it.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
FutureLink Corp.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of FutureLink
Corp. as of December 31, 1998 and 1999, and the related consolidated statements
of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in
the period ended December 31, 1999. 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 about 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 management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of FutureLink
Corp. at December 31, 1998 and 1999, and the consolidated results of its
operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

FUTURELINK CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 1999

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

THE COMPANY

FutureLink Corp. (the "Company") is a Delaware corporation headquartered in
Irvine, California. The Company provides server-based computing services, and is
an application services provider, or ASP. The Company's services enable software
applications to be deployed, managed, supported and upgraded from centrally
located servers, rather than on individual desktop computers. For server-based
computing customers, the Company installs and integrates software applications
on customers' servers. For our ASP customers, the Company hosts software
applications on servers at data centers, and rents computing services to
customers for a monthly fee. ASP customers connect to facilities over the
Internet, through a dedicated telecommunications line or by wireless connection.
ASP services were introduced in March 1999.

The Company has experienced net losses over the past two years and had an
accumulated deficit of approximately $43.1 million at December 31, 1999. Such
losses are attributable to both cash losses resulting from costs incurred in the
development of the Company's services and infrastructure, interest expense and
non cash amortization charges. The Company expects operating losses to continue
for the foreseeable future as it continues to develop and promote its services.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company generates revenue from ASP services, information technology
services, outsourcing contract services, and from the resale of computer
hardware and software. Service revenue is recognized when the service is
delivered, or over the term of the applicable contracts. Payments received in
advance, even if non-refundable, are recorded as deferred revenue. ASP
implementation fees are generally paid in advance, and are deferred and
recognized ratably over the term of the ASP service contract, generally two to
five years. Revenue from the resale of computer hardware and software is
recorded upon shipment, or upon installation when required under contract terms.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Financial instruments consisting principally of cash, accounts receivable,
payables, accrued liabilities, and short-term and long-term obligations, and
their carrying values in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets
approximate their fair value. It is management's opinion that the Company is not
exposed to significant currency or credit risks arising from these financial
instruments.

F-9
85
FUTURELINK CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK AND KEY SUPPLIER

The Company sells the majority of its services and products throughout
North America. Sales to the Company's recurring customers are generally made on
an open account while sales to occasional customers may be made on a prepaid
basis. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its ongoing customers
and generally does not require collateral. Reserves are maintained for potential
credit losses.

Citrix Systems, Inc. ("Citrix") is one of the Company's key suppliers. The
Company uses Citrix software almost exclusively to connect its customers to
software applications.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents consist of money market accounts and other
short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased.

INVENTORY

Inventory, consisting of computer hardware and software held for resale, is
recorded at the lower of cost (first in, first out) or market.

SOFTWARE LICENSES

The Company capitalizes the costs associated with the purchase of licenses
for major business process application software used in providing ASP services.
The licenses specify the maximum number of users permitted to utilize the
license in connection with the Company's service. All amounts are
non-refundable, regardless of the actual number of users assigned a license in
connection with ASP services. The licenses are amortized over the life of the
contract.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment is carried at cost. Depreciation and amortization
are provided using the straight-line method over the assets' estimated useful
lives ranging from two to five years. Assets recorded under capital leases are
depreciated over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the related
lease terms using the straight-line method. This depreciation is included in
depreciation and amortization in the accompanying consolidated financial
statements.

LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement ("FAS")
No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to be Disposed of," which requires impairment losses to be recorded on
long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present.

Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used by the
Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The
recoverability test is performed at the individual entity level based on
undiscounted cash flows. Based upon its analysis, the Company believes that no
impairment of the carrying value of its long-lived assets, inclusive of
goodwill, existed at December 31, 1999. The Company's analysis was based on an
estimate of future undiscounted cash flows using forecasts contained in the
Company's strategic plan. It is at least reasonably possible that the Company's
estimate of future undiscounted cash

F-10
86
FUTURELINK CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

flows may change during 2000. If the Company's estimate of future undiscounted
cash flows should change or if the strategic plan is not achieved, future
analyses may indicate insufficient future undiscounted cash flows to recover the
carrying value of the Company's long-lived assets, in which case such assets
would be written down to estimated fair value.

GOODWILL

Goodwill is recorded at cost and is being amortized using the straight-line
method over five years. The recoverability of goodwill is assessed periodically
based on management estimates of undiscounted future operating cash flows from
each of the acquired businesses to which the goodwill relates.

ASSEMBLED WORKFORCE

Assembled workforce represents the valuation placed on the knowledge,
expertise, and contacts of employees and consultants upon acquisition, and is
being amortized using the straight-line method over three years.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

The assets and liabilities of the Company's foreign operations are
generally translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates. Revenue and
expenses are translated at average exchange rates in effect for the year. The
resulting cumulative translation adjustments have been recorded as a separate
component of consolidated stockholders' equity. Foreign currency transaction
gains and losses, if any, are included in the consolidated net loss.

INCOME TAXES

The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes as
set forth in FAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under this method,
deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the anticipated
future tax effects arising from the differences between the financial statement
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases of
assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company accounts for stock-based awards to employees in accordance with
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees" and related interpretations and has adopted the disclosure-only
alternative of FAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." Options
granted to consultants, independent representatives and other non-employees are
accounted for using the fair value method as prescribed by FAS No. 123.

STOCK SPLIT

On June 1, 1999, the Company completed a 5 for 1 reverse stock split of its
common stock. Accordingly, all share and per share amounts have been
retroactively restated in the consolidated financial statements to reflect this
split.

F-11
87
FUTURELINK CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

LOSS PER SHARE

Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the average
number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted loss per share is
calculated by adjusting outstanding shares, assuming any dilutive effects of
options, warrants, and convertible securities. For all years presented, the
effect of stock options, warrants, and convertible securities were not included
as the results would be anti-dilutive. Consequently, there is no difference
between the basic and dilutive net loss per share.

SEGMENTS OF A BUSINESS ENTERPRISE

FAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information," establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises
report information about operating segments in annual consolidated financial
statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about
operating segments in interim financial reports. FAS No. 131 also establishes
standards for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas,
and major customers. The Company operates in one segment, information technology
solutions.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

FAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," establishes standards for
reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components in the
consolidated financial statements. Comprehensive loss includes cumulative
translation adjustments for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1999. These
adjustments are accumulated within the accompanying Consolidated Statements of
Stockholders' Equity under the caption "Comprehensive Loss."

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain amounts in the 1998 consolidated financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 1998, FAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities" was issued, which establishes new standards for recording
derivatives in interim and annual financial statements. This statement requires
recording all derivative instruments as assets or liabilities, measured at fair
value. Statement No. 133, as amended, is effective for all fiscal quarters of
all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. Management does not anticipate
the adoption of the new statement will have a significant impact on the
consolidated results of operations or financial position of the Company.

3. ACQUISITIONS

The Company completed the following acquisitions during the years ended
December 31, 1998 and 1999.

10% TK CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES

During 1998, the Company entered into a 10% convertible debenture agreement
with Thomson Kernaghan & Co. Ltd. ("TK") as agent, to provide up to $5.0 million
of financing. The financing included the issuance of 208,333 share purchase
warrants at an exercise price of $4.80 per share. During 1998, the Company
received an aggregate $2.7 million under the financing arrangement, and $500,000
of this debt plus accrued interest was converted into 374,955 common shares.

During 1999, the Company amended the terms of the 10% TK convertible
debentures which increased the total available financing from $5.0 million to
$6.0 million, of which the Company received an additional $3.3 million in 1999
bringing aggregate borrowings under the agreement to $5.5 million. An additional
129,534 warrants at an exercise price of $4.80 per share were issued in
connection with the increase in available funding. The fair value of these
warrants of $129,500 was recorded as additional paid-in capital with an
offsetting entry to original issue discount on debt.

Of the total principal amount of the debentures, approximately $1.7 million
has been attributed to the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion option.
Of this amount, $911,990 related to debentures received during the year ended
December 31, 1999. The amount attributed to the beneficial conversion option has
been included in interest expense as the option was exercisable upon issuance.

On April 26, 1999, the Company amended the terms of the 10% TK convertible
debenture agreement. Previously, the debenture holders had the right to convert
the debentures at a price equal to the lower of $3.75 per share and 78% of the
average closing bid price of the Company's common stock for the three trading
days immediately preceding the conversion. Following the amendment, the
debenture conversion price was fixed at $1.00 per common share. In addition, the
previously issued warrants were re-priced such that the exercise price of $4.80
became $1.25 per common share. An amount of $1.2 million has been included in
additional paid-in capital as the estimated value attributed to the warrants as
they were

exercisable upon issuance. The Company also issued an additional warrant to
purchase 862,132 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.25 per share
such that a total of 1,200,000 warrants were outstanding related to this
convertible debenture agreement. An amount of $1.0 million attributable to the
intrinsic value of the conversion feature of the amended debt was included as
interest expense with a corresponding credit to additional paid-in capital as
the conversion option was exercisable upon issuance.

During 1999, $4.0 million of the convertible debentures were converted into
4,018,602 shares of common stock. In addition, the Company paid approximately
$1.9 million as consideration for the cancellation of $1.5 million of the
principal balance. The extinguishment of this debt resulted in an $844,552
extraordinary item during the year ended December 31, 1999. This amount includes
charges of $259,318 for unamortized finance fees, $174,000 for unamortized debt
discount associated with the $3.5 million of debt existing at the time, and
$411,000 relating to the cost of settling $1.5 million of debt.

During the year ended December 31, 1999, 1,291,921 shares of common stock
were issued on the exercise of all the outstanding warrants issued to TK. In
connection with the exercise of the warrants, the Company issued an additional
125,000 shares to the note holders for agreeing to a lock up provision.

8% SENIOR SUBORDINATED CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES

During 1999, the Company completed an $8.0 million financing of 8% senior
subordinated convertible promissory notes, of which management and directors of
the Company purchased $433,000. The notes were convertible at the option of the
note holders at a conversion price of $1.00 per share, except those issued to
management and directors, that were convertible at $1.50 per share, subject to a
12-month lock up provision. Issue costs of $780,000 were paid relating to the
issuance of the debentures and were recorded as original issue discount on debt.
$7.4 million of the notes were converted during the year ended December 31, 1999
into 8,579,019 shares of common stock. The remaining balance of the notes due at
December 31, 1999 of $620,000 plus accrued interest is due April 30, 2000. An
amount of $4.9 million was attributed to the intrinsic value of the beneficial
conversion option and has been included in additional paid-in capital with an
offsetting entry to interest expense.

Upon entering into the agreement, the Company issued warrants to purchase
3,802,750 shares of common stock at $1.25 per share to the external holders of
the debentures and warrants to purchase 216,500 shares of common stock at $1.50
per share to directors and management of the Company. An amount of $2.4 million
based on the Black Scholes pricing model has been included in additional paid-in
capital as the estimated value of the warrants. During the year ended December
31, 1999, the board of directors offered the warrant holders an option to
exchange 100 warrants for 95 shares on a cashless basis. As such, 3,696,500 of
these warrants were exercised on a cashless basis and exchanged for 3,517,933
shares of common stock.

In addition, warrants to purchase 2,000,000 shares at an exercise price of
$1.25 per share were provided to the agent as a placement fee. An amount of $1.8
million based on the Black Scholes pricing model has been attributed to the
value of the warrants and has been recorded to additional paid-in capital. The
placement fee is attributable to the equity portion of the debt and, therefore,
this issue cost has also been recorded as a charge against additional paid-in
capital. On May 1, 1999, the Company entered into an agreement to retain the
holder of the majority of the notes as a financial advisor for a period of one
year. Compensation for the services received under the agreement include payment
of $5,000 per month and issuance of warrants to purchase 2,000,001 shares of
common stock at par value. A value of $1.2 million, based on the Black Scholes
pricing model, has been assigned as the estimated value of the warrants, which
is being amortized to consulting expense at the rate of $100,000 per month over
the one-year contract term. During the year ended December 31, 1999, the board
of directors offered the warrant

holders an option to exchange 100 warrants for 95 shares on a cashless basis. As
such, 4,000,001 warrants were exercised on a cashless basis and exchanged for
3,799,974 shares of common stock.

The initial terms of the notes contained certain anti-dilution provisions.
The subsequent issuance of securities at terms and conditions preferential to
that of the promissory notes resulted in an additional 289,599 shares issued to
those noteholders. An amount of $246,000 was attributed to these additional
shares and has been included in contributed capital with an offsetting entry to
interest expense. These anti-dilution privileges also resulted in the remaining
$620,000 of unconverted notes at December 31, 1999 having a conversion price of
$0.89 for noteholders and $1.34 for management.

10% CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE

During 1999, the Company issued a $275,000 promissory note that was
subsequently converted into a 10% debenture that can be converted into shares of
the Company's common stock at $1.15 per share. The note matures on April 20,
2002, and the Company may prepay upon 30 days advance notice. Accrued interest
of $18,000 at December 31, 1999 is due at maturity. In the accompanying
consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 1999, the balance due on
the convertible debt and the accrued interest is reflected net of $50,000
unamortized debt discount and finder's fee, which is being amortized to interest
expense over the life of the debenture.

An amount of $79,821 was attributed to the intrinsic value of the
beneficial conversion option and has been reflected as interest expense during
the year and included in additional paid-in capital. Upon entering the
agreement, the Company issued warrants to purchase 44,505 shares of common stock
of the Company at $1.25 per share to the holder of the debenture. The warrants
expire April 30, 2001. An amount of $41,800 has been included in additional
paid-in capital as the estimated value of the warrants and debt discount.

10. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

On October 15, 1999, the Company amended its authorized preferred shares
from 5,000,000 to 20,000,000 and its authorized common shares from 100,000,000
to 300,000,000.

ISSUANCE OF COMMON STOCK AND WARRANTS FOR CASH

During 1999, the Company completed a private placement which resulted in
net proceeds to the Company of $46.1 million through the issuance of 9,090,909
common shares and warrants to purchase 2,401,041 shares of common stock. The
warrants are exercisable for up to five years at an exercise price of $8.50 per
share. A finance fee of $3.0 million was paid to the placement agent. The
Company also issued 909,091 warrants to purchase shares of common stock to the
placement agent. The warrants are exercisable for up to five years at an
exercise price of $8.50 per share. Subsequent to year end, the warrant holders
exercised all the outstanding warrants (see Note 16).

During 1998, the Company issued 51,163 common shares and 51,163 warrants
for $847,000 cash. Of the warrants, 16,667 are exercisable at $15.50 on or
before January 29, 2000 (which have subsequently expired); 21,163 are
exercisable at $20.00 on or before April 20, 2000; and 13,333 are exercisable at
$16.25 on or before April 22, 2000. At December 31, 1999, none of the warrants
have been exercised.

ISSUANCE OF COMMON STOCK UPON CONVERSION OF CONVERTIBLE DEBT

During 1999, the Company issued $301,241 aggregate principal amount of its
10% convertible debentures, due on June 30, 1999 in exchange for stockholders'
advances of $289,000 including interest existing at December 31, 1998. Upon
entering into the convertible debenture agreement, the Company issued warrants
to purchase 150,621 shares of common stock to the holders of the debentures.
Each warrant gives the holder the right to purchase one common share of the
Company for $2.00 per share on or before February 22, 2000, for $3.00 per share
between February 23, 2000 and February 22, 2001 and $4.00 per share between
February 23, 2001 and February 22, 2002. An amount of $20,000 has been included
in additional paid-in capital as the estimated value attributed to the 150,621
warrants. During 1999, the Company repaid $253,000 of the principal amount and
$55,000 of principal and interest was converted into 27,431 common shares such
that the full principal and interest relating to the note has been settled.

During 1999, the Company issued $500,000 aggregate principal amount of its
8% convertible debentures, due February 28, 2002, convertible at $1.51 per
share. An amount of $125,000 was attributed to the intrinsic value of the
conversion option and was included in additional paid-in capital. Upon entering
into the 8% convertible debenture agreement, the Company issued warrants to
purchase 26,553 of common stock of the Company to the holder of the 8%
convertible debentures at $1.88 per share. The warrants expire on February 28,
2001. An amount of $36,000 was reflected as original issue discount and included
in additional paid-in capital as the estimated value of the warrants. On August
21, 1999, $500,000 of principal and $37,000 of accrued interest and other fees
were converted into 355,836 common shares.

During 1999, the Company issued 8% senior subordinated convertible
promissory notes and warrants for gross proceeds of $15.0 million. In addition,
warrants to purchase 2,250,000 shares of common stock were issued to note
holders at an exercise price of $8.50 per common share. The notes were initially
due on the earlier of (i) July 19, 2001; (ii) the consummation of a public
offering of the Company's securities; (iii) the completion of a private
placement resulting in gross proceeds of at least $15.0 million; and (iv) the
consummation of a merger, combination or the sale of substantially all of the
Company's assets, or the purchase by a single entity or person of more than 50%
of the Company's voting stock. The notes were initially convertible into common
stock at an exercise price of $8.50 per common share. However, if prior to
maturity, the Company completed a private placement of debt or equity securities
resulting in gross proceeds of at least $15.0 million, and the terms of this
subsequent placement are acceptable to the agent and the noteholders, the notes
will automatically convert as payment for an investment into the securities sold
in the subsequent conversion, and were to be converted at the same price and
terms as that private placement. Concurrent with the private placement described
above, the notes were converted into 2,727,172 common shares. Additional
warrants to purchase 711,818 shares of common stock were also issued. The
warrants are exercisable for up to five years at an exercise price of $8.50 per
common share. As part of the transaction, the Company paid $1.4 million cash and
issued 225,000 warrants to the placement agent as a finance fee. These warrants
are exercisable at $8.50 per share and expire July 27, 2001. Additional issue
costs of $42,592 were incurred. The warrants to purchase 2,475,000 shares of
common stock initially issued under this offering were recorded as a component
of equity since it was known that the notes would convert into the securities of
a subsequent offering. Accordingly, no amount has been recorded to additional
paid-in capital.

During 1999, the Company issued $8.0 million of 8% Senior Convertible
Promissory notes, of which $7.4 million of notes were converted into 8,579,019
shares of common stock. In addition, 7,696,501 warrants related to these notes
were exercised during 1999.

During 1998, a stockholder advanced the Company $729,802. Interest incurred
on the loan to July 2, 1998 in the amount of $2,849 was added to the principal
amount owing. $350,000 of the loan was assigned

F-19

FUTURELINK CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

to another stockholder on July 2, 1998. On the same date, both portions of the
loan were converted into 225,448 common shares with an ascribed value of
$732,651, and an equal number of warrants. Each warrant entitles the holders to
purchase one common share at $5.00 on or before June 30, 1999 and $6.25 on or
before June 30, 2000. At December 31, 1999, none of the warrants have been
exercised.

LOAN RECEIVABLE FROM OFFICER

On August 1, 1999, the Company loaned $2.0 million to an executive with
recourse which was then used by the executive to purchase 232,829 common shares
of the Company. The loan receivable has been recorded as a reduction of
stockholders' equity (deficit). The shares have been escrowed. On October 1,
1999, 29,129 shares were released from escrow. An additional 29,100 shares will
be released from escrow on a quarterly basis commencing January 1, 2000. So long
as the executive remains employed by the Company, $250,000 of the principal
amount of the loan shall be forgiven on a quarterly basis. The loan bears
interest at 5.625% per year. Interest is payable annually; however, should the
executive be employed at the end of each annual period, the interest will be
forgiven at such time. During the year ended December 31, 1999, the Company
recognized $500,000 as salary expense relating to the services received from the
employee in relation to the loan agreement.

ISSUANCE OF COMMON STOCK FOR SERVICES

On July 27, 1998, the Company issued 700,000 shares of common stock to
employees, officers and directors of the Company for $3,500. The fair value of
these shares at that time was approximately $2.1 million. The difference between
the fair value and the cash consideration received has been included as
additional paid-in capital and as salary expense for the year ended December 31,
1998.

During 1998, the Company entered into an agreement for consulting services
which provided for the settlement of fees with shares of the Company's common
stock. The number of shares issued was based on 95% of the average closing price
of the Company's stock during the trading days for the month in question as
quoted on the NASD Over the Counter Bulletin Board. At December 31, 1998,
$50,000 was owing for consulting services in relation to this agreement,
equating to 23,051 shares. During 1999, the 23,051 shares were issued along with
an additional 41,652 shares relating to services performed in 1999.

STOCK OPTION PLAN

The Company's Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") became effective on June 29,
1998, and was amended on November 30, 1998, September 23, 1999, November 17,
1999 and December 10, 1999. The Plan provides for the issuance of incentive and
non-qualified stock options. The aggregate number of shares which may be issued
pursuant to options under the Plan may not exceed twenty percent of our shares
of common stock issued and outstanding on a fully diluted basis. The maximum
number of shares which may be issued pursuant to options was fixed at 11,000,000
by the Company's board of directors.

The Plan is administered by the Company's board of directors. Generally,
the board may amend or terminate the Plan if it does not cause any adverse
effect on any then outstanding options or unexercised portions thereof. The
board of directors must obtain the consent of the stockholders to increase the
number of shares covered by the Plan, to change the class of persons eligible to
receive options, or to extend the term of the Plan beyond 10 years. The board of
directors sets the consideration for each option award. All options must
generally have an exercise price equal to at least 85% of the fair market value
of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant. Incentive stock options
must have an exercise price equal to at least 100% of the fair market value of
the underlying common stock on the date of the grant, and options granted to a
person who owns more than 10% of the voting power of our outstanding stock and

F-20

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

any outstanding stock of our subsidiaries must have an exercise price equal to
at least 110% of the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the
date of the grant.

The price at which options were granted during 1998 and 1999 were generally
based upon the market value of the Company's common stock at the time of the
grants. At December 31, 1999, there were options to purchase 11,000,000 shares
of common stock available to grant.

The weighted average fair value of options granted during 1998 and 1999 was
$2.49 and $8.02 per share, respectively. Pursuant to FAS No. 123, the Company
has elected to continue using the intrinsic value method of accounting for
stock-based awards granted to employees and directors in accordance with APB
Opinion No. 25 and related Interpretations in accounting for its stock option
and purchase plans.

The Company recorded approximately $1.6 million of net deferred
compensation in the year ended December 31, 1999, for the difference between the
exercise price of certain of the Company's stock options granted under the Plan
and the fair market value of the underlying common stock. Such amount has been
presented as a reduction of stockholders' equity and is being amortized ratably
over the vesting period of the applicable options. The Company amortized an
aggregate of $524,000 of deferred compensation during 1999.

F-21

FUTURELINK CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for its stock option plans
and its stock purchase plan other than that described above. For pro forma
purposes, the estimated value of the Company's stock options to employees is
amortized over the vesting period of the underlying instruments. The results of
applying FAS No. 123 to the Company's options to employees would approximate the
following:

1998 1999

The pro forma effect on net loss for 1998 and 1999 is not likely to be
representative of the effects on reported net loss for future years.

The fair value of options granted under the Company's stock option plan
during 1998 and 1999 was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences
between the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities for financial
reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant

The Company has recorded a valuation allowance for the full amount of
deferred tax assets in light of its history of operating losses since its
inception. When recognized, $288,000 of the valuation allowance will reduce
goodwill. The remaining balance may be available to offset future tax expense.
The net change in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was an
increase of approximately $4.8 million resulting primarily from an increase in
net operating losses.

The Company has U.S. net operating losses carryforward of $8.7 million
which begins to expire in 2012. Certain Company ownership changes can
significantly limit the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards in the
period following the ownership change. The Company has not determined whether
such changes have occurred and the effect such changes could have on its ability
to carry forward all or some of the U.S. net operating losses.

The Company has non-capital losses carried forward for Canadian income tax
purposes of $10.6 million. These losses expire beginning in 2001.

12. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

On August 1, 1999, the Company loaned $2.0 million to an officer of the
Company that was used to purchase 232,829 shares of common stock (see Note 10).

During the year ended December 31, 1999, management of the Company
participated in the 8% senior subordinated convertible promissory note offering
by purchasing notes totaling $433,000 (see Note 9).

CONTINGENCIES

From time to time the Company is a defendant or plaintiff in litigation
arising in the ordinary course of business. To date, other than litigation
SmallCaps OnLine Group LLC brought and the subsequent settlement of that action,
no litigation has had a material effect on the Company and, the Company is not a
party to any material litigation except as described below.

In the past, persons formerly associated with the Company, which may
include one or more of our former executive officers or directors, may have
engaged in activities as part of an effort to profit from unlawful trading
activity in our stock. As a result, the Company may be subject to civil or
criminal actions, fines or penalties. If any proceedings are commenced against
the Company, the Company will need to spend significant money and management
time in the Company's defense. If a court determined

F-25
101

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

that the Company participated in these activities, the Company could be liable
for damages or penalties that would have a material adverse effect on the
Company's financial condition and results of operation.

SmallCaps OnLine Group LLC, previously known as Bridge Technology Group
LLC, sued the Company on January 12, 2000 in the New York County Supreme Court
to recover fees the Company allegedly owed for advisory and investor relations
services. SmallCaps' complaint requested compensation for fees totaling $5.1
million, as well as warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,289,689 shares of
common stock at exercise prices ranging from $1.00 to $8.50 per share. The total
value of the damages SmallCaps claimed was $110.0 million. On February 11, 2000,
the Company settled SmallCaps' complaint by agreeing to pay SmallCaps $5.0
million on or before March 14, 2000, and to issue to SmallCaps warrants to
purchase an aggregate of 3,000,000 shares of our common stock at exercise prices
ranging from $8.50 to $22.50 per share, subject to anti-dilution protection.
Since the issuance of these warrants, their exercise prices have been adjusted
and now range from $8.33 to $22.05 per share and these warrants currently
entitle the holder to acquire 3,061,379 shares of our common stock. The Company
issued the warrants to SmallCaps on March 1, 2000 and paid SmallCaps the $5.0
million on March 14, 2000. The total value of the settlement on February 11,
2000 was $65.0 million which has been recorded in the accompanying consolidated
balance sheets as a charge to paid-in capital.

On November 6, 1998, the Company's former Chief Executive Officer and a
director, Mr. Cameron Chell, entered into a Settlement Agreement with The
Alberta Stock Exchange to resolve a pending investigation into Mr. Chell's
alleged breaches of Alberta Stock Exchange rules and by-laws. As part of the
Settlement Agreement, Mr. Chell acknowledged that he had breached certain duties
of supervision, disclosure, or compliance relating to various offers and sales
of securities, and Mr. Chell was prohibited from receiving Alberta Stock
Exchange approval in any capacity for a five year period, subjected to a
CDN$25,000 fine and a three year period of enhanced supervision. The Company
cannot be certain that the Settlement Agreement with the Alberta Stock Exchange
ends all proceedings with regard to these matters.

On January 20, 2000, the Company commenced a proceeding in Canada against
Mr. Chell, various other former employees of and consultants to the Company and
various other defendants alleging that these defendants misappropriated a
corporate opportunity in breach of fiduciary and contractual obligations. Most
of these defendants made counterclaims seeking, among other things, damages for
interference with their economic interests and for severance compensation in the
form of cash and stock options. The Company entered into a settlement agreement
with the defendants effective April 26, 2000 that has the following key terms:

- Mr. Chell will be entitled to exercise options to acquire 175,000 shares
of common stock that were scheduled to vest June 1, 2000,

- Mr. Chell or his nominee shall pay to us $400,000 in settlement of a
related party debt that involved Mr. Chell, and

- All other claims have been dropped by all parties, who have provided
mutual releases, with the claim and counterclaims to be discontinued.

On January 7, 2000, Tony Bryson, an individual who had previously been
employed by the Company, filed a lawsuit against the Company seeking $180,000
for the value of lost stock options, salary and benefits the Company allegedly
promised him, and other damages he allegedly sustained as a result of alleged
actions by the Company. This lawsuit has been filed under Canadian law. Canadian
law provides for severance pay to any employee of the Company Canadian
operations in an amount that is appropriate based on, among other things, the
nature of the position held by the employee and the length of time the employee
worked for the company, unless the employer can establish that the termination
was for just

F-26

FUTURELINK CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

cause. The exact amount of severance pay is often disputed between employers and
employees in Canada. Accordingly, there is a risk that in addition to this
lawsuit, one or more other former employees will make claims for cash severance
pay as well as options.

On January 26, 2000, Michael Chan filed a suit in the Court of Queen's
Bench of Alberta, Judicial District of Calgary alleging that FutureLink Alberta
breached its contract to deliver him options to purchase 250,000 shares of
FutureLink Alberta at $1.00 per share. Mr. Chan seeks 50,000 shares of common
stock or, alternatively, damages of approximately $1.5 million in cash, general
damages of approximately $200,000 and punitive damages of approximately
$200,000. We have filed a statement of defense in this action refuting Mr.
Chan's claims.

Under certain California State regulatory requirements, the Company was to
offer a rescission of certain options granted to California employees. The
Company applied for and has received an order from the State of California
approving the proposed terms of the rescission offer. The rescission offer was
made with respect to 1,240,500 options at an exercise price of $8.50, and 40,000
shares issued in relation to other options exercised to date which offer will
remain open subsequent to December 31, 1999. In light of market prices for the
Company's common stock recently being significantly in excess of the exercise
price, the Company received rescission notices from only three option holders in
January 2000 for a total of 29,000 options. The Company paid $31,800 plus
interest to these option holders in exchange for cancellation of their options
under the rescission offer.

A claim has been filed against the Company in the amount of approximately
$340,000 plus costs for damages from alleged Company misrepresentations and
interference with contractual relations regarding a sale transaction between two
third parties involving shares of the Company's common stock. The Company has
entered into an indemnity agreement with a former principal of the Company
whereby the former principal defends this action on behalf of the Company, bears
the costs of legal counsel and agrees to indemnify the Company for any losses.
Management believes the claim is without merit.

A claim has been filed against the Company's subsidiary, FutureLink Alberta
in the amount of $194,000 plus costs for damages and loss of rent related to a
purported lease agreement with respect to a building in Calgary, Alberta,
Canada. The Company is counter claiming an amount of approximately $266,000
against the claimant. The plaintiff has now leased the premises in question to a
third party, thereby mitigating its alleged losses. However, it is impossible at
this time for the Company to predict with any certainty the outcome of such
litigation. Management believes the claim is without merit and will defend the
Company's position vigorously.

A claim was filed against the Company's subsidiary, SysGold (now merged
into FutureLink Alberta) by TAP Consulting Ltd. in the amount of approximately
$102,000 for damages and loss of compensation relating to services provided to
the Company. Management believes the claim is without merit. An indemnity
agreement has been obtained from the previous stockholders of SysGold.

The Company is currently aware of other former employees and consultants
who may make claims against the Company that represent, in the aggregate, $1.5
million in damages which includes approximately 95,000 stock options and
monetary damages. At this time, management is unable to determine an amount, if
any, it may ultimately be required to pay to settle these issues.

The Company's pending lawsuits involve complex questions of fact and law
and could require the expenditure of significant costs and diversion of
resources to defend. Although management believes the outcome of the Company's
outstanding legal proceedings, claims and litigation will not have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations or financial
position, the results of litigation are inherently uncertain. The Company is
unable to make an estimate of the range of possible loss from outstanding
litigation, except as noted, and no amounts have been provided for such matters
in the consolidated financial statements.

15. 401(k) PLAN

The Company assumed several 401(k) plans in connection with the
acquisitions in 1999. Pursuant to these plans, employees may elect to reduce
their current compensation by up to the statutorily prescribed annual limit and
to have the amount of such reduction contributed to these plans. These plans
permit the Company, but do not require, additional matching contributions to
these plans on behalf of all participants in these plans. Through December 31,
1999, the Company has not made any contributions to these plans.

16. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On January 31, 2000, the Company completed the acquisition of Vertical
Software, Inc. and on February 29, 2000 the Madison Technology Group of
Companies for an aggregate purchase price of $85.1 million consisting of cash of
$14.6 million, a promissory note of $7.3 million due July 2000; and 3,001,486
shares of common stock valued at $63.2 million. The acquisitions will be
accounted for by the purchase method, and the estimated excess purchase price
over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired of $82.9 million will be
allocated to goodwill and amortized over five years.

On February 11 and February 29, 2000, warrant holders exercised their
rights to acquire 2,401,041 shares of common stock at an effective price of
$7.50 per share for aggregate net proceeds to the Company of $18.0 million. The
warrants had an adjusted (for anti-dilution) exercise price of $8.40 per share
and the holders of these warrants effectively paid $7.50 per share after
adjustment for a warrant exercise fee of $0.90 for each warrant exercised.

On April 28, 2000, the Company completed a private placement of
approximately $15 million of common equity with institutional private equity
investors. As part of this private placement, the Company issued to the
investors 1,764,704 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 441,176
shares of common stock at $9.25 per share.

From January 1, 2000 through April 29, 2000, certain note holders of
convertible debt converted $796,000 of debt into 865,568 shares of common stock
in accordance with the terms contained in the convertible debt agreements.

On May 26, 2000, Glen Holmes, the Company's President and Chief Operating
Officer and one of its directors, granted to the Company an option to purchase

at $5.50 per share, the fair market value at the date of grant. The Company may
only exercise this option to the extent employees to whom the Company granted
reciprocal options exercise those options. On the same date, Mr. Holmes also
granted to two of the Company's employees options to purchase 2,400,000 shares
of the Company's common stock at $5.50 per share, the fair market value at the
date of grant. The options were granted covering shares personally owned by Mr.
Holmes to employees who were formerly employed at Executive LAN Management, Inc.

On June 19, 2000 the Company acquired Charon Systems Inc. for $0.7 million
in cash, a note payable in the amount of $4.3 million due the earlier of
December 31, 2000, or the completion of a placement of equity securities by the
Company in excess of $50 million, and exchangeable shares convertible into
2,199,973 shares of common stock.

On June 29, 2000, the Company entered into a definitive agreement with
Microsoft Corporation pursuant to which Microsoft will purchase 1,428,571 shares
of FutureLink Series A preferred stock, for a price of $7.00 per share. We will
also issue to Microsoft a warrant with a five-year term to purchase up to an
additional 1,142,857 shares of preferred stock at an exercise price of $7.00 per
share. The preferred stock will provide for the voluntary and, under certain
circumstances, mandatory conversion of the preferred stock into shares of common
stock on a one-for-one basis, subject to anti-dilution adjustments. In addition,
Microsoft will have the right to nominate one director for election to
FutureLink's Board of Directors. The Company expects to consummate the sale of
the preferred stock to Microsoft in July 2000.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 AND 2000
(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
reflect the results of operations for FutureLink Corp. and its wholly owned
subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information and with the
instructions to Form 10-QSB and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they
do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and
adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating results for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ended December 31, 2000. For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in FutureLink's Annual
Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1999 filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on March 30, 2000.

The Company has experienced net losses over the past two years and has an
accumulated deficit of approximately $94.8 million at June 30, 2000. Such losses
are attributable to both cash losses resulting from costs incurred in the
development of the Company's services and infrastructure, interest expense and
non-cash charges. Subsequent to June 30, 2000, the Company completed two equity
financing transactions resulting in approximately $47.4 million of proceeds to
the Company. The Company expects operating losses to continue for the
foreseeable future as it continues to develop and promote its services.

NOTE 2. ACQUISITIONS

Vertical Software, Inc.

On January 31, 2000, the Company acquired Vertical Software, Inc. ("VSI"),
a U.S. mid-Atlantic regional provider of system integration and information

subsidiary of the Company such that all of VSI's outstanding stock was sold to
the Company in exchange for consideration of $27.6 million consisting of $8.1
million cash and 1,026,316 common shares of the Company's common stock valued at
$19.5 million. The acquisition was accounted for by the purchase method of
accounting, and the excess purchase price of $26.7 million over the estimated

amortized over five years.

accounted for by the purchase method of accounting. In connection therewith,
$12.4 million of the purchase price was allocated to assembled workforce and is

estimated fair value of net assets acquired was allocated to goodwill and is
being amortized over five years.

performance criteria. Borrowings under the credit agreement at June 30, 2000
were $3.6 million and the Company had utilized an additional $1.0 million to
secure an outstanding letter of credit. The facility bears interest at rates
that vary from prime (9.5% at June 30, 2000) plus 1% to prime plus 3% per annum
based upon the Company maintaining certain operating performance levels, and is
payable on demand. The facility is secured by receivables and other assets of
certain subsidiaries of the Company, and guarantees and a pledge of a percentage
of the shares of those subsidiaries. The agreement contains certain financial
and other covenants or restrictions, including the maintenance of certain
financial ratios, limitations on the incurrence of indebtedness and restrictions
on dividends paid by the Company. As of June 30, 2000, the Company was either in
compliance with, or had

Capital lease obligations are for the lease of up to $22.5 million of
computer hardware and related infrastructure costs. Aggregate monthly payments
are currently $492,000 and are based upon twenty four to sixty month
amortization periods, including interest implicit in the lease at rates ranging
from 9% to 14% per annum. As of June 30, 2000, the Company had available
borrowings of $11.4 million under the various lease lines. In addition to the
lease payments, the Company issued to the lessors warrants valued at $727,000 to
acquire 42,553 shares of common stock at $8.50 per share. The value of the
warrants has been reflected as a discount of the related debt, and is being
amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt.

Notes payable to former KNS stockholders consisted of a note of $2.7
million, which was paid in May 2000, and a note of $4.0 million, of which $1.0
million was paid in June 2000 and the remainder of the note was subsequently

F-36

FUTURELINK CORP.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

Issuance of Common Stock upon Exercise of Warrants

During the six months ended June 30, 2000, warrant holders exercised their
rights to acquire 2,630,298 shares of common stock at an effective price of
$7.50 per share for aggregate net proceeds to the Company of $18.0 million. The
warrants had an adjusted (for anti-dilution) exercise price of $8.40 per share
and the holders of these warrants effectively paid $7.50 per share after
adjustment for a warrant exercise fee of $0.90 for each warrant exercised.

Issuance of Common Stock upon Conversion of Convertible Debt

On March 30, 2000 certain note holders of convertible debt and accrued
interest thereon converted approximately $217,000 of debt into 189,160 shares of
common stock.

On April 29, 2000, certain holders of convertible debt and accrued interest
thereon converted $621,000 of debt into 676,408 shares of common stock in
accordance with the terms contained in the convertible debt agreement. The
Company incurred approximately $96,000 of costs in connection with the
conversion.

Issuance and Exercise of Stock Options

On May 26, 2000, Glen Holmes, the Company's President and Chief Operating
Officer and one of its directors, granted to the Company an option to purchase
600,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $5.50 per share, the fair market
value at the date of grant. The Company may only exercise this option to the
extent employees to whom the Company granted reciprocal options exercise those
options. On the same date, Mr. Holmes also granted to two of the Company's
employees options to purchase 2,400,000 shares of the Company's common stock at
$5.50 per share, the fair market value at the date of grant. The options were
granted covering shares personally owned by Mr. Holmes to employees who were
formerly employed at Executive LAN Management, Inc.

During the six months ended June 30, 2000, the Company recorded
approximately $2.2 million in deferred compensation for the difference between
the exercise price of certain of the Company's stock options and warrants that
were granted during the period and the fair market value of the underlying
common stock. Such amount has been presented as a reduction to stockholders'
equity and is being amortized ratably over the vesting period of the applicable
options. The Company amortized an aggregate of $1.4 million of deferred
compensation during the six months ended June 30, 2000.

Loan Receivable from Officer

On June 30, 2000 the Company and the employee agreed to terminate the loan
agreement and cancel the issuance of any further shares. In addition, the
employee returned 14,212 of these shares to the Company valued at the then
current market price of $129,000 in settlement of an employee advance.

NOTE 7. CONTINGENCIES

LITIGATION AND OTHER PROCEEDINGS

From time to time the Company is a defendant or plaintiff in litigation
arising in the ordinary course of business. To date, other than the SmallCaps
OnLine Group LLC litigation and the subsequent settlement of that action, no
litigation has had a material effect on the Company and, as of the date of this
prospectus, it is not a party to any material litigation except as described
below.

In the past, persons formerly associated with the Company, which may
include one or more of its executive officers and directors, may have engaged in
activities as part of an effort to profit from unlawful trading activity in the
Company's stock. The Company is aware that in October 1998, the SEC announced
the filing of an enforcement action against the publisher of an Internet
newsletter called The Future Superstock, written by Jeffrey Bruss. According to
the SEC's litigation release, the SEC's complaint alleged that The Future
Superstock recommended to the newsletter's more than 100,000 subscribers and to
visitors to the newsletter's website the purchase of approximately 25 microcap
stocks which it predicted to double or triple in the next three to twelve
months. According to the SEC's release, in most instances, the prices of
recommended securities increased for a short period of time after The Future
Superstock newsletter made a recommendation, after which the prices of those
stocks dropped substantially. The SEC alleged that in making its
recommendations, the Internet newsletter:

- failed to adequately disclose compensation it had received from profiled
companies,

- failed to disclose that it had sold stock in many of the issuers it
recommended shortly after disseminating such recommendation,

- had conducted little, if any, research into companies it recommended, and

- made false and misleading statements about the success of certain prior
stock picks.

According to press reports, Jeffrey C. Bruss claimed that he received $300,000
from the Company to promote the Company's stock. The SEC sought civil penalties
against the publisher of the newsletter. The SEC did not bring any action
against the Company. The Company believes that it made no payments to Mr. Bruss,
but one or more persons who were associated with its predecessor company prior
to 1998 may have made payments. The Company is unable to determine whether, as a
result of the alleged activities of Mr. Bruss, any stockholder suffered any
losses for which it might be liable.

In addition, the Company recently received a subpoena from the SEC
requesting any documentation in its possession with respect to a confidential
investigation regarding Internet newsletters. This investigation relates to the
use of the Internet to engage in fraudulent transactions with respect to the
offer, purchase and sale of securities. The Company has responded to the SEC's
request for documents.

As a result of these activities, the Company may be subject to civil or
criminal actions, fines or penalties. If any proceedings are commenced against
the Company, it will need to spend significant money and management time on its
defense. If the Company participated in these activities, it could be liable for
damages or penalties that would have a material adverse effect on its financial
condition, results of operations and liquidity.

SmallCaps OnLine Group LLC, previously known as Bridge Technology Group
LLC, sued the Company on January 12, 2000 in the New York County Supreme Court
to recover fees it allegedly owed for advisory and investor relations services.
SmallCaps' complaint requested compensation for fees totaling $5.1 million, as
well as warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,289,689 shares of the Company's
common stock at exercise prices ranging from $1.00 to $8.50 per share. The total
value of the damages SmallCaps claimed was $110.0 million. On February 11, 2000,
the Company settled SmallCaps' complaint by agreeing to pay SmallCaps $5.0
million on or before March 14, 2000, and to issue to SmallCaps warrants

F-38
114
FUTURELINK CORP.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

to purchase an aggregate of 3,000,000 shares of its common stock at exercise
prices ranging from $8.50 to $22.50 per share, subject to anti-dilution
protection. The Company issued the warrants to SmallCaps on March 1, 2000 and
paid SmallCaps the $5.0 million on March 14, 2000. Since the issuance of these
warrants, their exercise prices have been adjusted and now range from $8.33 to
$22.05 per share and these warrants currently entitle the holder to acquire
3,061,379 shares of the Company's common stock. The total value of the
settlement on February 11, 2000 was $65.0 million which has been recorded in the
Company's financial statements as a charge to paid-in capital.

On January 20, 2000, the Company commenced a proceeding in Canada against
Mr. Chell, various other former employees of and consultants to the Company and
various other defendants alleging that these defendants misappropriated a
corporate opportunity in breach of fiduciary and contractual obligations. Most
of these defendants made counterclaims against the Company seeking, among other
things, damages for interference with their economic interests and for severance
compensation in the form of cash and stock options. The Company entered into a
settlement agreement with the defendants effective April 26, 2000 that has the
following key terms:

- Mr. Chell will be entitled to exercise options to acquire 175,000 shares
of common stock that were scheduled to vest June 1, 2000,

- Mr. Chell or his nominee shall pay to the Company $400,000 in settlement
of a related party debt that involved Mr. Chell, and

- All other claims will be dropped by all parties, who have provided mutual
releases, with the claim and counterclaims to be discontinued.

On January 26, 2000, Michael Chan filed a suit in the Court of Queen's
Bench of Alberta, Judicial District of Calgary alleging that FutureLink Alberta
breached its contract to deliver him options to purchase 250,000 Class "A"
common shares of FutureLink Alberta at $1.00 per share. Mr. Chan seeks 50,000
shares of the Company's common stock or, alternatively, damages of approximately
$1.5 million in cash, general damages of approximately $200,000 and punitive
damages of approximately $200,000. The Company filed a Statement of Defense in
this action refuting Mr. Chan's claims.

NOTE 8. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent to June 30, 2000, the Company entered into two equity
transactions that raised an aggregate of $47.4 million as follows:

In July, 2000, the Company completed a public offering of 6,250,000 shares
of its common stock at a price of $7 per share, resulting in net proceeds of
$37.4 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and
offering costs.

On July 6, 2000, the Company sold to Microsoft Corporation, for proceeds of
$10 million, 1,428,571 shares of FutureLink Series A Redeemable Convertible
Preferred Stock for a price of $7.00 per share. The Company will also issue to
Microsoft a warrant with a five-year term to purchase up to an additional
1,142,857 shares of preferred stock at an exercise price of $7.00 per share. The
preferred stock will provide for the voluntary and, under certain circumstances,
mandatory redemption of the preferred stock into shares of common stock on a
one-for-one basis, subject to anti-dilution adjustments. In addition, Microsoft
will have the right to nominate one director for election to FutureLink's Board
of Directors.

VERTICAL SOFTWARE, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. ORGANIZATION

Vertical Software, Inc. (the "Company") is a regional provider of system
integration and information technology services. The Company was incorporated in
1989 under the laws of the State of Maryland. The Company expects to continue to
focus on increasing its client base in Maryland, Virginia and Washington D.C.
and expand into the southern states market.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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 reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

INVENTORIES

Inventories consist primarily of computer equipment purchased for specific
contracts and are carried at the lower of cost or market. Cost of inventories
purchased for contracts is determined on a specific identification basis.
Inventory also consists of computer equipment frequently used in fulfilling
installation contracts. These items are carried at the lower of cost or market,
under the first in first out method (FIFO).

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is calculated
over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging between five and seven
years for furniture and equipment and three years for computer software.
Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred and the costs of
improvements that extend the useful lives of assets are capitalized.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company reviews the recoverability of long-lived assets whenever events
or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may
not be recoverable. If the expected future cash flows from the use of such
assets (undiscounted and without interest charges) are less than the carrying
value, the Company's policy is to record a write-down that is determined based
on the difference between the carrying value of the asset and its estimated fair
value.

REVENUE RECOGNITION AND COST OF REVENUE

The Company provides services through time and material contracts and
effective October 1, 1999, through fixed fee contracts. For time and material
contracts, the Company recognizes equipment and software sales at the time of
shipment and installation revenue on a time-and-material basis based upon time
(at established rates) and direct costs as incurred. For fixed fee contracts,
the Company recognizes revenue on the percentage of completion method based on
costs incurred in relation to total estimated costs. The Company also offers
maintenance contracts for technical support services that are generally paid for
in advance by customers. The Company defers recognition of revenue on these
advance payments and amortizes such amounts as services are provided. The
Company writes off uncollectible accounts for customers who are provided credit
terms based on specific identification.

F-47
123
VERTICAL SOFTWARE, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

Costs of revenues consist primarily of computer equipment, software, and
labor costs inherent in the provision of network and Internet integration and
infrastructures services.

ADVERTISING COSTS

Advertising and promotion costs are expensed as incurred. For the years
ended December 31, 1997, 1998, and 1999, advertising and promotion costs were
$12,788, $56,845, and $80,126 respectively.

INCOME TAXES

Historically, the Company has elected, by the consent of its stockholders,
to be taxed under the provisions of Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code
(the "Code"). Under provisions of the Code, the stockholders include the
Company's corporate income in their personal income tax returns. The Company has
elected to be treated under similar provisions for state income tax reporting
purposes. Accordingly, the Company was not subject to federal and state
corporate income taxes during the period for which it was an S Corporation.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and
accrued expenses approximates their fair value based on the liquidity of these
financial instruments or based on their short-term nature.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable.
The Company places its cash with its principal bank, which is a high credit
quality financial institution. Accounts receivable are subject to credit limits,
ongoing credit evaluations and account monitoring procedures to minimize the
risk of loss. In certain instances, customer deposits are obtained which would
also reduce the risk of loss. Collateral is generally not required. During the
years ended December 31, 1997, 1998, and 1999, four of the Company's clients
comprised approximately 34%, 39%, and 27%, respectively, of total revenue.

SOURCES OF SUPPLIES

The Company relies on computer and computer equipment distributors to
provide computer hardware, software and supplies. Although management believes
alternative suppliers could be found in a timely manner, any disruption of these
services could have an adverse effect on operating results. In addition, if the
suppliers are unable to meet the Company's needs as its business and market
share grow, then delays and increased costs in the expansion of the Company's
integration and information technology solutions service could potentially
result in an adverse effect on the Company's operating results.

BUSINESS SEGMENTS

In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 131 (Statement No. 131), Disclosures About
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, which was required to be
adopted for the year ended December 31, 1998. Statement No. 131 changes the way
public companies report segment information in annual financial statements and
also requires those companies to report selected segment information in interim
reports to stockholders. The Company has only one reportable segment, system
integration and information technology services.

Software, Inc. Amounts received from the related party were $37,675 and $280,091
for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1999, respectively, and were netted
against the related expenses. The Company discontinued these activities with the
affiliate effective January 1, 2000. The Company also purchases computer
software, for resale, from this affiliate.

During August of 1999, the Company entered into a month to month agreement
for travel services with a party related by common ownership. The agreement
terms require monthly reimbursements of $1,000 for the Company's portion of
expenses.

The Company also has $201,623 and $45,092 of unsecured demand notes payable
to related parties at December 31, 1998 and 1999, respectively. These notes bear
interest in a range of 7 1/2% to 8%, per annum. Interest expense related to the
notes was $8,344 and $15,787 for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1999,
respectively.

6. DEMAND NOTES PAYABLE

The Company maintains a $1 million ($520,000 at December 31, 1998) line of
credit with its principal bank. Borrowings against the line bear interest at
9 1/2% per annum. The line is secured by accounts receivable and inventory and
is personally guaranteed by the Company's stockholders. There were no borrowings
related to this line outstanding at December 31, 1998. Borrowings of $400,000
related to this line of credit were outstanding as of December 31, 1999.

During 1998, and 1999, the Company maintained a $275,000 line of credit
with a financial service corporation. This borrowing arrangement is secured by a
second collateral position in the Company's accounts receivable and inventory
and is used to make significant inventory purchases for contracts. No

VERTICAL SOFTWARE, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

borrowings related to this line of credit were outstanding as of December 31,
1998 and 1999. The Company will terminate this arrangement in February, 2000.

7. RETIREMENT PLAN

The Company maintains a defined contribution pension plan covering
substantially all employees. Under this plan, participants may elect to defer a
portion of their wages subject to the annual limitations imposed by section 402
of the Internal Revenue Code. Matching and profit sharing contributions to the
plan are made at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Matching
contributions charged to expense, for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998
were $15,945 and $28,051, respectively. No contributions were made to this plan
in 1999.

Effective June 1, 1999, the Company adopted a qualified 401(k) profit
sharing plan for substantially all employees. Under this plan, participants can
elect to contribute a portion of their compensation, subject to limitations
imposed by the Internal Revenue Code, to the plan. The Company may make annual
discretionary matching and qualified non-elective contributions to the plan.
Matching 401(k) Plan contributions, charged to expense, for the year ended
December 31, 1999, were $77,058.

The Company intends to make all future contributions to the 401(k) profit
sharing plan and discontinue payments to the defined contribution pension plan.

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company leases its office space under a non-cancelable operating lease
that expires on February 28, 2000. Rent expense was $70,280, $96,919, and
$106,338 for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999, respectively.
During 1999, the Company entered into two operating leases for office space in
Virginia. These leases require monthly rentals of $1,537 and expire through
October 2001. The Company has also entered into a new operating lease for its
Maryland offices commencing March 1, 2000 through February 28, 2010. This lease
requires initial monthly rentals of $14,720 that increase 3% each year.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1998 AND 1999

NOTE 1 NATURE OF BUSINESS

Madison Consulting Resources, Inc. (the "Company") was formed in 1997 and
is a provider of information technology through placement of computer
consultants on a temporary and permanent basis to Fortune 1000 companies.

NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

USE OF ESTIMATES

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue is recognized from the temporary placement of computer consultants
as services are performed. Permanent placement revenues are recognized when
computer consultants are placed. Revenue is reflected net of estimated returns
and allowances.

ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

The Company reflects accounts receivable at net realizable value. There is
no allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 1998. There is an allowance
for doubtful accounts at December 31, 1999 of $10,000.

INCOME TAXES

The Company has elected under the Internal Revenue Service Code to be taxed
as an S corporation, which is also effective for state tax purposes. In lieu of
corporate income taxes, the shareholders of an S corporation are taxed on their
proportionate share of the company's taxable income. Therefore, no provision or
liability for federal income tax has been included in the financial statements.
However, state and city taxes calculated at the greater of minimum, regular or
alternative tax methods have been provided for in the financial statements.

Upon consummation of an agreement to sell the outstanding stock of the
Company to Futurelink Corp. (see Note 8), the Company's status as an S
corporation under the Code will automatically terminate and normal federal and
state corporate income tax rates will apply.

On a pro forma basis (unaudited), assuming the Company's status as an S
corporation terminated as of December 31, 1997, the Company would have had pro
forma federal and state tax expense of $11,811 and $52,852 for the years ended
December 31, 1998 and 1999, respectively.

NOTE 3 LINE OF CREDIT

The Company has a line of credit with a bank, which is in the form of a
time secured loan maturing March 14, 2000. The loan is secured by eligible
accounts receivable. The Company can borrow up to 80% of eligible accounts
receivable (outstanding 90 days or less) up to $1,000,000 and $2,000,000 at

over the bank's prime rate which amounted to 10.00% at December 31, 1998 and

majority owned by the sole shareholder of the Company. During 1998 and 1999, the
Company shared office expenses with MCR NJ, and charged it for common office and
administrative expenses paid for or incurred by the Company primarily based on
an allocation of monthly sales or outstanding accounts receivable balances. In
addition, the Company charged MCR NJ $120,000 for management services for the
year ended December 31, 1998. Management believes that the allocation of common
expenses from Microlan Systems, Inc. are reasonable and consistent with what the

The Company also loaned MCR NJ amounts for working capital purposes. At
December 31, 1998 and 1999, the Company had balances due from MCR NJ in the

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1998 AND 1999

NOTE 1 NATURE OF BUSINESS

Madison Consulting Resources NJ, Inc. (the "Company") was formed in 1998
and is a top provider of information technology through placement of computer
consultants on a temporary and permanent basis to Fortune 1000 companies.

NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

USE OF ESTIMATES

REVENUE RECOGNITION

ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

INCOME TAXES

The Company has elected under the Internal Revenue Service Code to be taxed
as an S corporation. In lieu of corporate income taxes, the shareholders of an S
corporation are taxed on their proportionate share of the company's taxable
income. Therefore, no provision or liability for federal income tax has been
included in the financial statements. However, state taxes calculated at the
greater of minimum, regular or alternative tax methods have been provided for in
the financial statements.

Upon consummation of an agreement to sell the outstanding stock of the
Company to Futurelink Corp. (see Note 6), the Company's status as an S
corporation under the Code will automatically terminate and normal federal and
state corporate income tax rates will apply.

On a pro forma basis (unaudited), assuming the Company's status as an S
corporation terminated as of December 31, 1997, the Company would have had pro
forma federal and state tax expense of $8,979 and $96,065 for the years ended
December 31, 1998 and 1999.

NOTE 3 DUE TO RELATED PARTY

During 1998 and 1999, the Company had transactions with an affiliated
company, Madison Consulting Resources, Inc. ("MCR"), a company which is owned by
the majority shareholder of the Company. During 1998 and 1999, the Company
shared office expenses with MCR, and was charged for common office and
administrative expenses paid or incurred by MCR primarily based on an allocation
of monthly sales or outstanding accounts receivable balances. In addition, MCR
charged the Company $120,000 for management services for the year ended December
31, 1998.

F-78
154
MADISON CONSULTING RESOURCES NJ, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

The Company also had borrowings from MCR for working capital purposes. At
December 31, 1998 and 1999, the Company had balances due to MCR in the amount of
$672,238 and $738,225, respectively.

NOTE 4 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

During 1998 and 1999, the Company was allocated with overhead charges by
MCR from an affiliated company, Microlan Systems, Inc. DBA Madison Technology
Group, a company which is owned by the sons of the majority shareholder of the
Company. For the year ending December 31, 1998 and 1999, overhead allocated by
MCR from this affiliate amounted to $15,291 and $22,848, respectively, and is
included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements
of income. Management believes that the allocation of common expenses from
Microlan Systems, Inc. are reasonable and consistent with what the expenses
would have been on a stand-alone basis.

At December 31, 1999, the Company had a balance due from this affiliated
company in the amount of $18,835.

NOTE 5 CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

Trade receivables are primarily short-term receivables which arise in the
normal course of business. The Company generally does not require collateral,
and all of its trade receivables are unsecured. At December 31, 1998,
approximately 75% of the Company's trade receivables were represented by three
customers, with one customer representing approximately 40% of the outstanding
trade receivable balance. At December 31, 1999, approximately 70% of the
Company's trade receivables were represented by two customers, with one customer
representing approximately 52% of the outstanding trade receivable balance.
There were no other customers that individually had accounts receivable balances
exceeding 10% of the total accounts receivable balance for the year ended
December 31, 1998 and 1999, respectively.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Executive LAN Management, Inc., dba Micro Visions (the "Company") was
incorporated in California in 1993 and is a leading reseller and service
provider of thin client/server-based computing systems. The Company also
provides a full line of information technology consulting services including
internet/intranet consulting, LAN/WAN implementation, internetworking analysis
and design, application deployment and desktop management, and Year 2000
consulting. The Company's principal markets are in the United States.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that effect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company recognizes service delivery revenue upon delivery of service.
Hardware and software revenue is recognized upon delivery, or upon installation
when required under contract terms.

UNBILLED ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLES

Unbilled accounts receivable, representing unbilled consulting services, of
$65,000 and $89,000 at December 31, 1997 and 1998, respectively, and $88,000 and
$0 at September 30, 1998 and 1999, respectively, are billable upon attainment of
performance milestones and included in accounts receivable on the accompanying
balance sheets. The Company expects such amounts to be billed and collected
within twelve months of each respective balance sheet date.

INVENTORY

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first in, first out) or market
and primarily consists of prepackaged third-party computer software.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using
the straight-line method based upon the estimated useful lives of the related
assets which range from five to seven years. Leasehold improvements are
amortized using the straight-line method over seven years. Property and
equipment were comprised of the following:

======== ========= ======== ==========

LONG-LIVED ASSETS

Effective January 1, 1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 121 ("SFAS No. 121"), Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of, which requires
impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when
indicators of impairment are present. Implementation of SFAS No. 121 was
immaterial to the financial statements of the Company.

INCOME TAXES

Prior to July 1, 1998, the Company utilized the liability method to account
for income taxes as set forth in SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes.
Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on differences
between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using
enacted tax rates.

Effective July 1, 1998, the shareholders of the Company elected, under
Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code, to include the Company's income in
their own income for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company is
generally not subject to federal income taxes.

The unaudited pro forma information included on the accompanying Statements
of Operations is presented to show the pro forma income tax expense (benefit) on
the separate return basis for periods subsequent to July 1, 1998.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company's financial instruments consist principally of cash,
receivables, payables, and borrowings. The Company believes all the financial
instruments' recorded values approximate current values.

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

The Company sells the majority of its products and provides services to
various customers, which include a variety of large companies and distributors
throughout the United States. In 1997, sales to the Company's two largest
customers accounted for 47% and 19% of total sales. Accounts receivable from

F-87
163
EXECUTIVE LAN MANAGEMENT, INC.
DBA MICRO VISIONS

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

those customers aggregated 44% of total accounts receivable at December 31,
1997. In 1998, sales to the Company's largest customer accounted for 10% of
total sales. Accounts receivable from that customer represented 12% of total
accounts receivable at December 31, 1998. In 1999, there were no individual
customers which accounted for 10% of total sales. The Company provides for
uncollectible amounts upon recognition of revenue and when specific credit
problems arise. The Company performs credit evaluations on all new customers.
During 1998, the Company did not perform credit evaluations on its customers,
however, the Company required a twenty-five percent deposit for its first time
customers. The Company generally does not require collateral on its accounts
receivable.

ADVERTISING

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. These costs include
promotional literature, direct mailing brochures, telemarketing and trade shows.
Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998 was $11,000
and $106,000, respectively, and $71,000 and $80,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 and 1999, respectively.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130, Reporting
Comprehensive Income, which establishes standards for reporting and displaying
comprehensive income and its components in the financial statements. The Company
did not have any components of comprehensive income as defined by SFAS No. 130
for any period presented.

Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 131, Disclosures
about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. SFAS 131 superseded
SFAS No. 14, Financial Reporting for Segments of a Business Enterprise. SFAS No.
131 establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises report
information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires
that those enterprises report selected information about operating segments in
interim financial reports. SFAS No. 131 also establishes standards for related
disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers.
The adoption of SFAS No. 131 did not affect the results of operations or
financial position of the Company. The Company views its business as a single
segment, a network service solution company, and therefore has no reportable
segments under FAS 131. All segment disclosures are included in or can be
derived from the Company's financial statements.

CERTAIN RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain amounts in the 1998 and 1997 financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The unaudited financial statements for the nine month period ended
September 30, 1998 included herein are unaudited; however, they contain all
normal recurring accruals and adjustments which, in the opinion of management,
are necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of the
Company at September 30, 1998 and the results of its operations and cash flows
for the nine months ended September 30, 1998.

On July 1, 1998, the Company changed its tax status, as defined by the
Internal Revenue Code, to Subchapter S, which eliminated the requirement for the
Company to pay federal income taxes as net income is passed through and taxable
to the individual shareholders. A state provision for income taxes will be
recorded based on a California statutory rate of 1.5% for Subchapter S
Corporations.

3. LINE OF CREDIT

The Company entered into a $2.5 million line of credit agreement with a
financial institution to finance its inventory purchases. The available credit
line is based on a percentage of the Company's eligible accounts receivable
balance, less the outstanding balance owed to the financial institution. The
outstanding balance bears interest at prime (8.25% at September 30, 1999) plus
3.03%. At September 30, 1999, the unused credit line was $1,106,000.
Substantially all of the Company's assets are collateral under the line of
credit agreement. This debt is guaranteed by the shareholders of the Company.

4. COMMITMENTS

The Company has entered into various operating leases ranging from three to
five years for its facilities. Rentals under certain leases have rent escalation
clauses as set forth in their respective lease agreements. Future minimum rental
commitments as of September 30, 1999 are as follows:

1999..................................................... $ 117,000

and 1998, respectively, and $105,000 and $206,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 and 1999, respectively.

5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

During 1997 and 1998, the Company made various advances to its officers.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

During the period ended September 30, 1999, the Company entered into
transactions with FutureLink Distribution Corp. ("FutureLink"). At September 30,
1999, there was a receivable from FutureLink of $107,000, which is included in
accounts receivable on the accompanying balance sheet (see Note 7).

6. PENSION PLANS

The Company has three defined contribution pension plans covering employees
over the age of 21 years with one year of service. The Company's contribution
requirements under these plans range from zero percent to one hundred percent of
participants' eligible annual compensation as defined in the plan documents. The
Company's combined contributions to these plans for the years ended December 31,
1997 and 1998 were $15,000 and $108,000, respectively, and $54,000 and $104,000
for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1999, respectively.

7. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On June 2, 1999, the Company and the Company's shareholders signed an
Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and Merger (the "Agreement") with
FutureLink. The Agreement provides for a merger of the Company with a subsidiary
of FutureLink such that the Company's outstanding stock shall be converted into
and become a right to receive the consideration as set forth in the agreement.

On October 15, 1999, the Agreement was approved and finalized. In addition,
the name of the Company was changed from Executive LAN Management, Inc. dba
Micro Visions to FutureLink Micro Visions Corporation.

8. IMPACT OF YEAR 2000 (UNAUDITED)

The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs being written using
two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. The Company has
completed an assessment of their IT systems as well as the software and hardware
sold to its customers noting that they are Year 2000 compliant. The Company's IT
systems primarily consist of its financial reporting system. In July 1998, the
Company purchased and implemented a Year 2000 compliant financial reporting
software package totaling $42,000. The Company's non-IT systems primarily
consist of heating, sprinklers and security equipment at the Company's
facilities. The Company has completed its review and remediation of its non-IT
systems and its IT systems other than the financial reporting system. The
Company estimates that the total remaining costs to complete any required
modifications, upgrades or replacements of its IT and non-IT systems will not
have a material adverse effect on its business or results of operations. The
Company has obtained Year 2000 compliant certification letters from its major
software and hardware vendors noting that their software and hardware sold by
the Company are Year 2000 compliant. However, the failure of the Company's other
vendors and suppliers to be fully Year 2000 compliant with regards to their
products by January 1, 2000 could result in interruptions in the Company's
normal business work operations. The Company has completed contingency plans to
address the year 2000 issues that may pose a significant risk to the Company's
ongoing operations.

by the directors on a monthly basis.

NOTE 2 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Company considers all
highly liquid investments with an initial maturity of three months or less to be
cash equivalents. At the financial statement date, the Company had no
investments other than cash on the books.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, cost being
determined by the average cost method, market being replacement cost.

estimated useful lives of the related assets. For financial reporting purposes,
the useful lives of assets are 18 to 24 months for Computer Hardware and three
years for Office Furniture and Certain Software. Useful lives for tax purposes
are five years for Computer Hardware and Software and seven years for Office
Furniture. Depreciation is computed on the straight line method for financial
reporting purposes and on the double declining balance for income tax purposes.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1998

NOTE 7 -- CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to
concentration of credit risk, consist principally of cash and cash equivalents
and trade receivables. The Company places its cash with federally insured
financial institutions and as of December 31, 1997 and 1998, the Company's
balances do not exceed federally insured limits. Fair value of these financial
instruments approximates their carrying values.

The Company believes any risk of accounting loss is significantly reduced
due to the diversity of its services, end customers, and geographic sales areas.
The Company performs credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition
whenever necessary. The Company generally does not require cash collateral or
other security to support customer receivables and has historically had little
problems with collecting their accounts receivable. For the year ended December

To The Board of Directors
CN Networks, Inc.
dba Computer Networks, Inc.
Pleasanton, California

We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheets of CN Networks, Inc. dba
Computer Networks as of September 30, 1998 and 1999 and the related statements
of income and retained earnings and cash flows for the nine months then ended,
in accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services
issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. All
information included in these financial statements is the representation of the
management of CN Networks, Inc.

A review consists principally of inquiries of company personnel and
analytical procedures applied to financial data. It is substantially less in
scope than an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards,
the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial
statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that
should be made to the accompanying financial statements in order for them to be
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Organization and Purpose

The Company is governed by a Board of Directors, comprised of the president
and corporate secretary. Financial Statements are prepared in-house and reviewed

of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position of the
Company at September 30, 1998 and 1999 and for the nine months ended September
30, 1998 and 1999. It should be understood that accounting measurements at
interim dates inherently involve greater reliance on estimates than at year end.
The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 AND 1999
(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 6 -- CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to
concentration of credit risk, consist principally of cash and cash equivalents
and trade receivables. The Company places its cash with federally insured
financial institutions and as of September 30, 1998 and 1999, the Company's
balances do not exceed federally insured limits. Fair value of these financial
instruments approximates their carrying values.

The Company believes any risk of accounting loss is significantly reduced
due to the diversity of its services, end customers, and geographic sales areas.
The Company performs credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition
whenever necessary. The Company generally does not require cash collateral or
other security to support customer receivables and has historically had little
problems with collecting their accounts receivable. For the periods ended
September 30, 1998 and 1999 the Company had one customer that individually had
an accounts receivable balance exceeding 10% of the total accounts receivable
balance.

NOTES TO THE COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1998

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Async Technologies, Inc. ("ATI") provides computer software and hardware
installation and maintenance services to medium and large businesses located in
the mid-western United States. Certain sales involve installations to multiple
locations reaching international markets.

The financial statements are prepared on a combined basis with Async
Technical Institute, Inc. ("ATII"), a company under common control. ATII began
operations in September, 1998, and provides technical training to customers of
ATI.

As described in Note 11 to the combined financial statements, the companies
were merged on October 7, 1999. The combined entities are hereinafter referred
to as the Company.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Accounting

The Company's combined financial statements are prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of combined financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.
Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company considers accounts receivable to be fully collectible;
accordingly, no allowance for doubtful accounts is reported.

Inventory

Inventory consists primarily of software products and is valued at the
lower of cost or market on a first-in, first-out basis. Market is current
selling price less estimated selling costs.

Property and Equipment

Income Taxes

Historically each company, with the consent of the shareholder, has elected
under the Internal Revenue Code to be taxed as an S corporation. In lieu of
corporate income taxes, the shareholders of an S corporation are taxed on their
proportionate share of the company's taxable income. Therefore, no provision or
liability for federal income tax has been included in the combined financial
statements.

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

As described in Note 12 to the combined financial statements, the companies
were merged on October 7, 1999. The combined entities are hereinafter referred
to as the Company.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Accounting

The Company's combined financial statements are prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles.

The interim financial statements included herein are unaudited; however,
they contain all normal recurring accruals and adjustments which, in the opinion
of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position of the
Company at September 30, 1998 and 1999 and the results of operations and cash
flows for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1999. The results of
operations for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1999 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full years.

Use of Estimates

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company considers accounts receivable to be fully collectible;
accordingly, no allowance for doubtful accounts is reported.

Inventory

Inventory consists primarily of software products and is valued at the
lower of cost or market on a first-in, first-out basis. Market is current
selling price less estimated selling costs.

income tax has been included in the combined financial statements.

The Company sells maintenance contracts and recognizes the related revenue
over the life of the contract.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from the sale and installation of computer software and hardware is
recognized at the point of delivery, or upon installation when required under

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

To the directors of KNS Holdings Limited

We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of KNS Holdings Limited as
at February 28, 1998 and February 28, 1999, and the related consolidated profit
and loss accounts and statements of movements in invested capital and cash flows
for the periods then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of
KNS Holdings Limited's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with United Kingdom auditing
standards which do not differ in any significant respect from United States
generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about 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 management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis of our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of KNS Holdings
Limited at February 28, 1998 and February 28, 1999 and the consolidated results
of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the periods then ended in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United Kingdom
which differ in certain respects from those generally accepted in the United
States (see Note 21 of Notes to the Financial Statements).

KNS HOLDING LIMITED

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
AT FEBRUARY 28, 1999
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of accounting

The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in
accordance with all applicable accounting standards.

KNS Holdings Limited was incorporated on November 25, 1997 and had no
operations until its acquisition of KNS Limited, on January 15, 1998. The
accompanying financial statements for the period ended February 28, 1998 consist
of the operations of KNS Limited for the period January 15, 1998 to February 28,
1998. On November 12, 1998, the company granted options to three directors of
KNS Limited to purchase from the company 50,000 L1 ordinary shares each in KNS
Limited. These options were exercised by the directors on November 12, 1998.
Consequently, KNS Holdings Limited now owns 70% of KNS Limited.

The interim financial statements included herein are unaudited; however,
they contain all normal recurring accruals and adjustments which, in the opinion
of the directors, are necessary to present fairly the financial position of the
company at November 30, 1999 and for the nine months ended November 30, 1999. It
should be understood that accounting measurements at interim dates inherently
involve greater reliance on estimates than at year end. The results of
operations for the nine months ended November 30, 1999 are not necessarily
indicative of the results to the expected for the full year.

Turnover

Turnover represents the net invoiced value of goods and services excluding
Value Added Tax.

Fixed assets

Depreciation is provided to write off the cost of the assets over their
expected useful lives at the following annual rates/lives on a straight line
basis:

Computers and other equipment............................... 25%
Motor vehicles.............................................. 25%
Office equipment............................................ 25%

Stocks

Stocks and work in progress are stated at the lower of cost and net
realizable value, having made appropriate provisions for obsolete or slow moving
items. Cost represents the net purchase price of stock less trade discounts and
allowances.

Leased assets and hire purchase agreements

Where assets are financed by leasing or hire purchase agreements which give
risks and rewards approximating to ownership (finance leases) they are treated
as if they had been purchased outright on credit. They are therefore initially
recorded as a fixed asset and a liability at a sum equal to the fair value of
the asset. Leasing payments on such assets are regarded as consisting of a
capital element which reduces the outstanding liability and an interest charge.

All other asset leases are regarded as operating leases and the total
payments made under them are charged to the profit and loss account on a
straight line basis over the lease term.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS (CONTINUED)
AT FEBRUARY 28, 1999

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Use of estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United Kingdom requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect reported revenues, expenses, assets and
liabilities. Actual amounts could differ from such estimates.

Pension schemes

The company operates defined contribution pension schemes on behalf of the
directors and employees. Contributions payable for the period are charged to the
profit and loss account.

Foreign currency translation

The functional currency of the group is sterling (StgL).

Transaction gains or losses arising on changes in the exchange rates
between the functional currency and foreign currencies are included in net
income/(loss) for the period.

Translation adjustments arising from the translation of the results, assets
and liabilities of the group into US dollars (US$) are reported as a component
of shareholders' funds.

2. TURNOVER

The turnover and profit on ordinary activities before taxation are
attributable to the one principal activity of the company.

differ in certain respects from those generally accepted in the United States
("US GAAP"). The significant differences applicable to KNS Holdings Limited are
described below.

Deferred taxation

Under UK GAAP provision is made for deferred taxation using the liability
method on short-term timing differences and all material timing differences
which are not expected to continue in the future. Under US GAAP, deferred
taxation is provided on a full liability basis on all temporary differences
between the tax and book bases of assets and liabilities including the
differences between the assigned fair values and tax bases of assets and
liabilities acquired. Future tax benefits are recognized as deferred tax assets,
subject to a valuation allowance to the extent that it is more likely than not
that any part will be realized.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The group recognizes revenues in accordance with American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants statement of Position 97-2, Software Revenue
Recognition, as amended. Accordingly, no adjustment is necessary under US GAAP.

CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS

The consolidated statements of cash flows prepared under UK GAAP present
substantially the same information as those required under US GAAP but they
differ, however, with regard to classification of items within them and as
regards the definition of cash and cash equivalents.

Under UK GAAP, cash is defined as cash in hand and at bank and deposits
repayable on demand less bank overdrafts. Under US GAAP, cash and cash
equivalents would not include bank overdrafts but would include cash deposits
repayable within three months at inception. Under UK GAAP, cash flows are
presented separately for operating activities, returns on investments and
servicing of finance, taxation,
