                                AUSTIN, TX 78746

                    NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
                         TO BE HELD             , 2003

Dear Stockholder:

     You are cordially invited to attend the 2002 annual meeting of stockholders
of Forgent Networks, Inc., to be held at 108 Wild Basin Road, Austin, Texas, on
          , 2003, at           central standard time.

     At the annual meeting, you will be asked to act on the following matters:

          1. To elect six directors to the board of directors to hold office
     until the next annual meeting of stockholders or until their respective
     successors are duly elected and qualified;


          2. To approve the sale of substantially all of the assets used in the
     operation of our videoconferencing services business, pursuant to an asset
     purchase agreement between our company, GTG Holdings, Inc. and VidCon
     Holding Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of GTG Holdings, Inc. Pursuant to
     the terms of the asset purchase agreement, VidCon will pay us approximately
     $19,500,000 in the aggregate, consisting of $10,000,000 in cash and the
     assumption of substantially all of the liabilities associated with our
     videoconferencing services business, estimated to be approximately
     $9,500,000 as of the date of this proxy statement. Approximately $8,000,000
     of the cash will be paid at closing and $2,000,000 of the cash will be
     placed in escrow to cover potential purchase price adjustments and
     indemnity claims. The aggregate cash consideration, including the
     $8,000,000 to be paid at closing, is subject to downward adjustment if the
     net assets transferred to VidCon on the closing date are less than
     $3,800,000 and/or the deferred revenue assumed by VidCon on the closing
     date is greater than $7,600,000. The aggregate cash consideration is also
     subject to downward adjustment if there are indemnity claims payable by us,
     although we do not currently expect any of these adjustments to be made.
     Details of this transaction and other important information are set forth
     in the accompanying proxy statement which you are urged to read carefully;


          3. To ratify the board of directors' appointment of Ernst & Young LLP,
     independent accountants, as our independent auditors for the year ending
     July 31, 2003;


          4. To approve an adjournment or postponement of the annual meeting, in
     order to solicit additional proxies, to such time and place as designated
     by the presiding officer of the meeting; and


          5. To transact such other business as may properly come before the
     meeting or any adjournment thereof.

     YOUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED AND RECOMMENDS THAT AN
AFFIRMATIVE VOTE BE CAST IN FAVOR OF EACH OF THE PROPOSALS LISTED IN THE PROXY
CARD.

     Only holders of record of common stock at the close of business on
          , 2003, will be entitled to notice of and to vote at the annual
meeting or any adjournment thereof.

     Stockholders are urged to review carefully the information contained in the
proxy statement attached hereto prior to deciding how to vote their shares at
the annual meeting. Because of the significance of the sale of our
videoconferencing services business, your participation in the annual meeting,
in person or by proxy, is especially important. We hope you will be able to
attend the annual meeting. WHETHER OR NOT YOU PLAN TO ATTEND THE ANNUAL MEETING,
PLEASE COMPLETE, SIGN, DATE AND RETURN THE ENCLOSED PROXY CARD PROMPTLY. If you
attend the annual meeting, you may revoke your proxy and vote in person if you
wish, even if you have previously returned your proxy card. Simply attending the
annual meeting, however, will not revoke your proxy; you must vote at the annual
meeting. If you do not attend the annual meeting, you may still revoke your
proxy at any time prior to the annual meeting by providing a later dated proxy
or by providing written notice of your revocation to the Secretary of our
company. Your prompt cooperation will be greatly appreciated.

                                         Sincerely,

                                         RICHARD N. SNYDER
                                         Chief Executive Officer

     THIS PROXY STATEMENT IS DATED           , 2003 AND IS FIRST BEING MAILED TO
STOCKHOLDERS ON OR ABOUT           , 2003.


                             FORGENT NETWORKS, INC.
                              108 WILD BASIN ROAD
                                AUSTIN, TX 78746

                                PROXY STATEMENT
                    FOR 2002 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

                                          , 2003

     The enclosed form of proxy is solicited by the board of directors to be
used at the 2002 annual meeting of stockholders to be held at 108 Wild Basin
Road, Austin, Texas, on           , 2003, at           central standard time.

     We will bear the entire cost of solicitation of proxies, including
preparation, assembly, printing and mailing of this proxy statement, the proxy
and any additional information furnished to you. Copies of solicitation
materials will be furnished to banks, brokerage houses, fiduciaries and
custodians holding in their names shares of our common stock beneficially owned
by others to forward to such beneficial owners. We may reimburse persons
representing beneficial owners of common stock for their costs of forwarding
solicitation materials to such beneficial owners. Original solicitation of
proxies by mail may be supplemented by telephone, telegram or personal
solicitation by our directors, officers or other regular employees. No
additional compensation will be paid to directors, officers or other regular
employees for such services. In addition to the proxy solicitation material
mailed to stockholders, we have also retained the services of Mellon Investor
Services LLC to assist in the solicitation of proxies for a fee estimated at
$9,500.

                     VOTING SECURITIES OUTSTANDING; QUORUM

     The record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of
and vote at the annual meeting was the close of business on           , 2003. At
the close of business on           , 2003, there were           shares of our
common stock, $.01 par value, issued and outstanding, each entitled to one vote
on all matters properly brought before the annual meeting. There are no
cumulative voting rights.

     The presence in person or by proxy of the holders of a majority of the
issued and outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote as of the record
date is necessary to constitute a quorum at the annual meeting. Abstentions and
broker non-votes are treated as present at the meeting and are therefore counted
to determine a quorum. If a quorum is not present, the stockholders entitled to
vote who are present in person or represented by proxy at the annual meeting
have the power to adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other
than an adjournment at the meeting, until a quorum is present or represented. At
any adjourned meeting at which a quorum is present, any business may be
transacted that might have been transacted at the annual meeting as originally
notified.


     Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in
person or represented by proxy at the annual meeting and entitled to vote on the
election of directors. The sale of our videoconferencing services business must
be approved by the holders of a majority of all the outstanding shares of common
stock on the record date, whether or not present or represented by proxy at the
annual meeting. The ratification of the appointment of independent auditors and
the approval of an adjournment or postponement of the annual meeting in order to
solicit additional proxies must be approved by holders of a majority of the
shares of common stock present in person or represented by proxy at the annual
meeting and entitled to vote thereon.



     Abstentions may be specified on all proposals except the election of
directors. Abstentions, with respect to any proposal other than the election of
directors, will have the same effect as a vote against such proposal. Broker
non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the election of directors, the
ratification of independent auditors or the approval of an adjournment or
postponement of the annual meeting in order to solicit additional proxies. With
regard to the election of directors, votes may be cast in favor of or withheld
from each nominee; votes that are withheld will be excluded entirely from the
vote and will have no effect. Since the Delaware General Corporation Law
requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding
shares of common stock entitled to vote on the proposal to approve the sale of
our videoconferencing services business, a "broker non-vote" on such proposal
will have the same effect as a vote against the approval of the sale of our
videoconferencing services business.

                       SUMMARY TERM SHEET OF THE SALE OF
                      SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF THE ASSETS USED
          IN THE OPERATION OF OUR VIDEOCONFERENCING SERVICES BUSINESS


     The following summary briefly describes the material terms of the proposed
sale of substantially all of the assets used in our videoconferencing services
business to VidCon Holding Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of GTG Holdings,
Inc. This summary does not contain all the information that may be important for
you to consider when evaluating the proposed transaction. We encourage you to
read this proxy statement before voting.


     Pursuant to an asset purchase agreement, we will sell and transfer to
VidCon, substantially all of the assets used in the operation of our
videoconferencing services business, which services multiple vendors'
videoconferencing related products.


REASONS FOR THE SALE OF OUR VIDEOCONFERENCING SERVICES BUSINESS (SEE PAGE 28)


     We are proposing to sell our videoconferencing services business to VidCon
because we believe that the sale and the terms of the related asset purchase
agreement are in the best interests of our company and our stockholders. The
board of directors has identified various benefits that are likely to result
from the sale of our videoconferencing services business. The board of directors
believes the sale of that business will:

     - allow us to devote substantially all of our energies and resources to
       development of our enterprise software and technology licensing business,
       thereby focusing on licensing versus service contracts, professional
       services versus break/fix repairs and enterprise software offerings
       versus endpoint device repair;

     - provide an improved organizational focus and free up senior management
       from having to oversee a remote business unit;

     - allow us to direct our focus to the potentially better overall returns
       from our enterprise software and technology licensing business, by
       reducing our expenses and increasing our cash balances;

     - allow us to have simplified financial statements by reducing the deferred
       revenue associated with the videoconferencing services business; and


     - allow us to increase our cash reserves from $18,250,000 at January 31,
       2003, by between $8,000,000 and $10,000,000 and thereby provide us with a
       greater ability to pursue acquisitions and withstand business and
       economic slowdowns. The purchase price to be paid to us is subject to
       potential downward adjustments for purchase price adjustments and
       indemnity claims. While we currently do not expect any of these downward
       adjustments to be made, it is possible that these adjustments could
       occur, in which case our cash reserves will not increase as much as
       presently expected.


     These and other reasons for approving and recommending the sale of our
videoconferencing services business are discussed further in this document.


PROCEEDS FROM THE SALE OF OUR VIDEOCONFERENCING SERVICES BUSINESS (SEE PAGE 37)



     Our company will retain the proceeds of the sale of our videoconferencing
services business. We do not intend to distribute any of the proceeds to our
stockholders, but will use the proceeds, along with our other cash and cash
equivalents, in connection with our future business plan.




TERMS OF THE ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT (SEE PAGE 45)



  WHAT WE WILL RECEIVE (SEE PAGE 46 AND PAGE 47)



     VidCon will pay us approximately $19,500,000 for the assets of our
videoconferencing services business, consisting of the assumption of
substantially all of the liabilities associated with our videoconferencing
services business as set out below, as well as the following cash consideration:


     - $8,000,000 in cash, as adjusted pursuant to the terms of the asset
       purchase agreement, payable at the closing;


     - $1,000,000 in cash, to be placed in escrow and generally payable 120 days
       after the closing pursuant to the terms of the escrow agreement, as
       adjusted for purchase price adjustments pursuant to the terms of the
       asset purchase agreement; and



     - $1,000,000 in cash, to be placed in escrow and generally payable 18
       months after the closing pursuant to the terms of the escrow agreement,
       as adjusted for indemnity claims by GTG Holdings or VidCon pursuant to
       the terms of the asset purchase agreement.



     The aggregate cash consideration that we receive will be decreased by
purchase price adjustments and indemnity claims. A purchase price adjustment
will occur if the net assets transferred to VidCon on the closing date are less
than $3,800,000 and/or the deferred revenue assumed by VidCon on the closing
date is greater than $7,600,000. An indemnity claim will occur if VidCon or GTG
Holdings suffers losses arising from or resulting from our breaches of
representations, warranties or covenants in the asset purchase agreement or from
liabilities and obligations that VidCon has not assumed.



     The initial purchase price adjustment will be made to the $8,000,000 that
we are to receive at closing, based upon our good faith estimate to be delivered
five days prior to the closing of the amount of net assets to be transferred to
VidCon and the amount of deferred revenue being assumed by VidCon on the closing
date. The asset purchase agreement provides for a post-closing reconciliation of
any pre-closing purchase price adjustments.



     The purchase price adjustment escrow will be used to pay for purchase price
adjustments that have not been accounted for in any adjustment to the $8,000,000
of cash we are to receive at closing. The indemnity claim escrow will be used to
pay for the indemnifiable losses of VidCon or GTG Holdings described above. We
are required to pay any purchase price adjustments and indemnity claims that are
in excess of these escrowed amounts. To the extent that the purchase price
adjustments and the indemnity claims exceed the amounts specifically escrowed
for them the cash we ultimately receive in this transaction would be less than
$8,000,000. As of the date of this proxy statement, we do not anticipate that
there will be a downward adjustment to the cash we are to receive for either
purchase price adjustments or indemnity claims, however, we can give no
assurances that either or both of these adjustments will not occur.


     The company believes that the source of the cash that VidCon will use to
pay the cash consideration will be from VidCon's and/or GTG Holdings' internal
sources. VidCon and GTG Holdings have represented to us that they have the
financial capability, in the ordinary course of business and without seeking any
additional third party financing, to fulfill their commitments under the asset
purchase agreement.


  WHAT IS BEING SOLD (SEE PAGE 45)


     We are selling to VidCon substantially all of the assets used in the
operation of our videoconferencing services business, which services multiple
vendors' videoconferencing related products. Our videoconferencing services
business provides maintenance services, technical support, resident engineers,
total call management and training for videoconferencing equipment.

                                        2



  WHAT IS BEING RETAINED (SEE PAGE 45 AND PAGE 46)


     We are retaining certain assets, including the following assets:

     - any cash, cash equivalents or marketable securities;

     - any contract or agreement relating to the videoconferencing services
       business that is specifically excluded or which cannot be assigned
       because we have been unable to obtain the necessary consent prior to or
       after the closing of the asset purchase agreement;

     - general books of account and books of original entry that comprise our's
       or the videoconferencing services business' permanent accounting or tax
       records and books and records that we are required to retain pursuant to
       law;

     - any of our software that we are unwilling or unable to transfer and that
       is specifically listed out in the asset purchase agreement schedules;

     - all patents, patent applications and related intellectual property owned
       by us or our subsidiaries;

     - the trade name "Forgent" and any of our trademarks and service and trade
       names; and

     - the real property leases for our offices in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania
       and Austin, Texas.


  ASSUMED LIABILITIES (SEE PAGE 46)


     As partial consideration for the purchase of the assets, VidCon will assume
certain liabilities related to our videoconferencing services business,
including:

     - all liabilities set forth on our closing statement related to the
       videoconferencing services business, including trade and other accounts
       payable, items received but not invoiced, accrued expenses and deferred
       revenue of the videoconferencing services business;

     - all obligations to customers after the closing date of the asset purchase
       agreement arising from the operation of the videoconferencing services
       business on or prior to the closing date, but not including any
       liabilities for any breach of such obligations by us or liabilities in
       excess of those which are required to be set forth on our closing
       statement for future performance of the obligations to customers; and


     - all liabilities, obligations and commitments incurred in the operation of
       our videoconferencing services business after the closing date of the
       asset purchase agreement and arising out of the contracts assumed by
       VidCon, but not including any liabilities for any breach of such
       obligations by us or liabilities in excess of the deferred revenue
       required to be set forth on our closing statement, estimated to be
       approximately $7,500,000 as of the date of this proxy statement.



     It is estimated that, as of the date of this proxy statement, the total
liabilities to be assumed by VidCon will be approximately $9,500,000.



  CONDITIONS TO COMPLETION OF ASSET PURCHASE (SEE PAGE 49 AND PAGE 50)



     Each party's obligation to complete the sale of our videoconferencing
services business is subject to the prior satisfaction or waiver of certain
conditions. If any of the closing conditions are waived, we will consider the
facts and circumstances at that time and make a determination as to whether a
resolicitation of proxies from our stockholders is appropriate. No determination
can be made at this time as to which, if any, of the closing conditions are
likely to be waived by us or VidCon. The following list sets forth the material
conditions that have not yet been satisfied and therefore must be satisfied or
waived before completion of the sale of our videoconferencing services business:


     - all parties must obtain certain required consents or approvals to the
       assignment of specified material contracts by us to VidCon;

                                        3



     - we must obtain approval by our stockholders of the sale; and



     - there must not be any events or conditions that have or could have a
       material adverse effect on our videoconferencing services business or the
       assets related to that business.



     Each party's obligations are also subject to other customary closing
conditions.



ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS RELATED TO THE ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT (SEE PAGE 53 AND
PAGE 54)


     In conjunction with the closing of the sale of our videoconferencing
services business, we will enter into a transition services agreement whereby we
will provide, for a fee at actual cost, certain transition services for VidCon
related to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. We will also enter into
a reseller agreement, whereby VidCon will be able to resell our software
products and a co-marketing arrangement, whereby we will receive a commission
for referring videoconferencing related service business to VidCon.


     We will also enter into an escrow agreement at closing with GTG Holdings,
VidCon and an escrow agent whereby $2,000,000 of the $10,000,000 cash
consideration will be placed with the escrow agent, $1,000,000 of which is for
potential purchase price adjustments and $1,000,000 of which is for potential
indemnity claims.


     Since we are retaining the lease for the King of Prussia, Pennsylvania
facility where the videoconferencing services business is located, we have
agreed to sublease a portion of that facility to VidCon after the closing of the
asset purchase agreement.

              QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE 2002 ANNUAL MEETING

Q: WHAT IS THE PROPOSAL RELATING TO THE ELECTION OF DIRECTORS THAT I WILL BE
   VOTING ON AT THE ANNUAL MEETING?


A: You will be asked to consider and vote upon a proposal to elect the following
   individuals to the board of directors: Richard N. Snyder, Kathleen A. Cote,
   James H. Wells, Lou Mazzucchelli, Richard J. Agnich and Raymond Miles.


Q: WHAT IS THE PROPOSAL RELATING TO THE SALE OF OUR VIDEOCONFERENCING SERVICES
   BUSINESS THAT I WILL BE VOTING ON AT THE ANNUAL MEETING?

A: You will be asked to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve the sale by
   us of substantially all of the assets used in the operation of our
   videoconferencing services business pursuant to the asset purchase agreement,
   dated January 6, 2003, between our company, GTG Holdings and VidCon, a
   wholly-owned subsidiary of GTG Holdings. The asset purchase agreement is
   attached to this proxy statement as Annex A.

Q: WHY IS OUR COMPANY PROPOSING TO SELL ITS VIDEOCONFERENCING SERVICES BUSINESS?


A: We are proposing to sell our videoconferencing services business because we
   believe the sale will allow us to devote substantially all of our energies
   and resources to development of our enterprise software and technology
   licensing business, thereby focusing on licensing versus service contracts,
   professional services versus break/fix repairs and enterprise software
   offerings versus endpoint device repair; provide an improved organizational
   focus and free up senior management from having to oversee a remote business
   unit; direct our focus to the potentially better overall returns from our
   enterprise software and technology licensing business, by reducing our
   expenses and increasing our cash balances; have simplified financial
   statements by reducing the deferred revenue associated with the
   videoconferencing services business; and increase our cash reserves from
   $18,250,000 at January 31, 2003, by between $8,000,000 and $10,000,000 and
   thereby provide us with a greater ability to pursue acquisitions and
   withstand business and economic slowdowns. The purchase price to be paid to
   us is subject to potential downward adjustments for purchase price
   adjustments and indemnity claims. While we currently do not expect any of
   these downward adjustments to be made, it is possible that these adjustments
   could occur, in which case our cash reserves will not increase as much as
   presently expected.



Q: WHAT IS THE PROPOSAL RELATING TO THE RATIFICATION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS'
   APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS THAT I WILL BE VOTING ON AT THE ANNUAL
   MEETING?


A: You will be voting to ratify the board of directors' appointment of Ernst &
   Young LLP, independent accountants, as our independent auditors for the year
   ending July 31, 2003.


Q: WHAT IS THE PROPOSAL RELATING TO THE APPROVAL OF AN ADJOURNMENT OR
   POSTPONEMENT OF THE ANNUAL MEETING, IN ORDER TO SOLICIT ADDITIONAL PROXIES,
   TO SUCH TIME AND PLACE AS DESIGNATED BY THE PRESIDING OFFICER OF THE MEETING?



A: You will be voting on whether to grant authority to adjourn or postpone the
   annual meeting, in order to solicit additional proxies, to a later time.



Q: WILL ANY OF THE PROCEEDS FROM THE SALE OF THE VIDEOCONFERENCING SERVICES
   BUSINESS BE DISTRIBUTED TO ME AS A STOCKHOLDER?



A: No. We intend to retain the proceeds and use them in connection with our
   future business plan.


Q: WHO IS SOLICITING MY PROXY?

A: Your board of directors.

Q: HOW DOES THE BOARD RECOMMEND THAT I VOTE ON THE MATTERS PROPOSED?

A: Your board unanimously recommends that stockholders vote "FOR" each of the
   proposals submitted at the annual meeting.

                                        5


Q: HAS THE BOARD RECEIVED AN OPINION AS TO THE FAIRNESS OF THE SALE OF OUR
   VIDEOCONFERENCING SERVICES BUSINESS FROM A THIRD PARTY?


A: Yes. In arriving at its determination that the sale of our videoconferencing
   services business is fair to, and in the best interests of our company, the
   board has considered a number of factors, including a fairness opinion of our
   financial advisor, Raymond James & Associates, Inc. In the course of
   negotiation of this transaction, we asked Raymond James & Associates, Inc. to
   express an opinion to us as to the fairness, from a financial point of view,
   to our stockholders of the consideration to be received by us in the sale of
   our videoconferencing services business. The initial terms of the proposed
   sale called for us to receive cash consideration of $11,000,000 plus
   approximately $11,200,000 of our liabilities to be assumed by VidCon, subject
   to potential downward adjustments for purchase price adjustments and
   indemnity claims. While we received a written opinion from Raymond James &
   Associates, Inc., dated December 5, 2002, to the effect that this
   consideration was fair, from a financial point of view, to our stockholders,
   subsequent to the delivery of that opinion, at a board meeting on December
   11, 2002, the board authorized management to negotiate a downward revision in
   the proposed purchase price within specified parameters. As a result of this
   revision and further negotiations with GTG Holdings, the purchase price was
   changed to cash consideration of $10,000,000, instead of $11,000,000, and the
   same liabilities were to be assumed, subject to the same potential downward
   adjustments for purchase price adjustments and indemnity claims. In so
   approving the revised purchase price, the board received and relied on the
   oral opinion of Raymond James & Associates, Inc. that the consideration,
   although revised downward, continued to be fair to our stockholders from a
   financial point of view. On April 9, 2003, in connection with the preparation
   of this proxy statement, Raymond James & Associates, Inc. delivered to us a
   letter, dated December 19, 2002, in substantially the same form as the
   December 5, 2002 opinion, confirming in writing its oral opinion delivered on
   December 19, 2002, as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, to our
   stockholders of the revised consideration to be received by us in the sale of
   our videoconferencing services business. In approving the sale, the board
   placed its reliance on the oral opinion, since confirmed in writing, of
   Raymond James & Associates, Inc. and not on the December 5, 2002 opinion. In
   rendering its opinion, Raymond James & Associates, Inc. assumed an amount of
   liabilities of approximately $11,200,000 that would be assumed by VidCon and
   did not independently review or appraise those liabilities. The amount of
   liabilities used by Raymond James & Associates, Inc. was derived from
   financial information provided by us. The opinion of Raymond James &
   Associates, Inc. is addressed to the board and does not constitute a
   recommendation to any stockholder as to how to vote with respect to matters
   relating to the sale of our videoconferencing services businesses. The
   opinion of Raymond James & Associates, Inc. addresses only the fairness, from
   a financial point of view, of the consideration to be received by us in the
   transaction and does not address the overall fairness of the transaction. We
   have paid Raymond James & Associates, Inc. a retainer fee of $50,000, as well
   as an additional fee of $50,000 for rendering the fairness opinion. If the
   transaction is consummated, Raymond James & Associates, Inc. will receive an
   additional fee of approximately $450,000. For a full description of the
   opinion letter that we received from Raymond James & Associates, Inc., see
   the section titled "Opinion of Our Financial Advisor" on page 29. To review
   the text of this letter, see Annex B to this proxy statement. The fairness
   opinion was prepared and rendered, and it is dated, as of December 19, 2002.
   Changes in the amount of liabilities to be assumed by VidCon are currently
   expected to result in VidCon assuming approximately $9,500,000 in
   liabilities, as opposed to the $11,200,000 assumed by Raymond James &
   Associates, Inc. Raymond James & Associates, Inc. is not required to update
   its opinion for these changes and we may not refrain from closing the
   transaction based on changes in assumed liabilities. As a result,
   stockholders should consider that the fairness opinion is based on aggregate
   consideration of approximately $21,200,000, when the actual consideration
   received by us is currently estimated to be approximately $19,500,000 as a
   result of the reduction in the amount of liabilities outstanding and to be
   assumed by VidCon.



Q: CAN I STILL SELL MY SHARES?


A: Yes. Neither the asset purchase agreement nor the sale of our
   videoconferencing services business assets will affect your right to sell or
   otherwise transfer your shares of our common stock.

                                        6


Q: WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF THE SALE OF OUR VIDEOCONFERENCING SERVICES BUSINESS IS
   NOT APPROVED?

A: If the sale is not approved, we will not complete the proposed sale, we will
   retain and continue to operate the business and continue to pursue other
   buyers, however, the market price of our common stock could decline and our
   ability to grow and implement our current business strategies could be
   substantially limited. In the event that our board withdraws or adversely
   modifies its recommendation of this transaction, or we enter into a
   transaction to sell the videoconferencing services business within 12 months
   of the termination of the asset purchase agreement and prior to the annual
   meeting a proposal to acquire our videoconferencing services business had
   been communicated to our board or publicly announced and not withdrawn, we
   will pay VidCon a termination fee of $500,000.

Q: WHO IS ENTITLED TO VOTE AT THE ANNUAL MEETING?

A: Only holders of record of our common stock as of the close of business on
             , 2003 will be entitled to notice of and to vote at the annual
   meeting.

Q: WHEN AND WHERE IS THE ANNUAL MEETING?

A: The annual meeting of our stockholders will be held at 108 Wild Basin Road,
   Austin, Texas, on           , 2003, at           central standard time.

Q: WHERE CAN I VOTE MY SHARES?

A: You can vote your shares where indicated by the instructions set forth on the
   proxy card, including by internet or by telephone, or you can attend and vote
   your shares at the annual meeting of stockholders of our company to be held
   on           , 2003 at 108 Wild Basin Road, Austin, Texas.

Q: IF MY SHARES ARE HELD IN "STREET NAME" BY MY BROKER, WILL MY BROKER VOTE MY
   SHARES FOR ME?

A: Your broker may not be permitted to exercise voting discretion with respect
   to some of the matters to be acted upon. Thus, if you do not give your broker
   or nominee specific instructions, your shares may not be voted on those
   matters, and will not be counted in determining the number of shares
   necessary for approval. You should follow the directions provided by your
   broker regarding how to instruct your broker to vote your shares.

Q: MAY I CHANGE MY VOTE AFTER I HAVE MAILED MY SIGNED PROXY CARD?

A: Yes. Just send in a written revocation or a later dated, signed proxy card
   before the annual meeting or simply attend the annual meeting and vote in
   person. Simply attending the annual meeting, however, will not revoke your
   proxy; you must vote at the annual meeting.

Q: WHAT DO I NEED TO DO NOW?

A: PLEASE VOTE YOUR SHARES AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, SO THAT YOUR SHARES MAY BE
   REPRESENTED AT THE ANNUAL MEETING. You may vote by signing and dating your
   proxy card and mailing it in the enclosed return envelope, or you may vote in
   person at the annual meeting. Because a vote of a majority of our outstanding
   shares is required to approve the sale of our videoconferencing services
   business, your failure to vote is the same as your voting against the sale.

Q: WHAT ARE THE UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE SALE OF OUR
   VIDEOCONFERENCING SERVICES BUSINESS TO THE STOCKHOLDERS?

A: The sale of our videoconferencing services business will not result in any
   federal income tax consequences to our stockholders.

Q. WHAT ARE THE UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE SALE OF THE
   VIDEOCONFERENCING SERVICES BUSINESS TO THE COMPANY?


A. The sale of our videoconferencing services business will result in a taxable
   gain to the company, however, it is anticipated that our currently available
   federal income tax net operating and net capital loss carryforwards are in
   excess of the estimated amount of the gain. For a more detailed discussion on
   the tax consequences see "Material United States Federal Income Tax
   Consequences" on page 38.


                                        7


Q: WILL STOCKHOLDERS HAVE APPRAISAL RIGHTS?

A: No. Under Delaware law you will have no appraisal rights as a result of the
   sale of our videoconferencing services business.

Q: WHOM SHOULD I CALL IF I HAVE QUESTIONS?

A: If you have questions about any of the proposals on which you are voting, you
   may call Jay C. Peterson, our chief financial officer, at 512-437-2700.

                                        8

     Holders of record of our shares of common stock at the close of business on
          , 2003, will be entitled to vote on all matters at the annual meeting.

                                        9


BOARD RECOMMENDATION

     The board of directors recommends that an affirmative vote be cast in favor
of each of the proposals listed in the proxy card.

VOTING YOUR SHARES

     The board of directors is soliciting proxies from our stockholders. By
completing and returning the accompanying proxy or by completing the telephone
or internet procedures, you will be authorizing Jay C. Peterson and Richard N.
Snyder to vote your shares. If your proxy is properly signed and dated, it will
be voted as you direct. If you attend the annual meeting in person, you may vote
your shares by completing a ballot at the meeting.

CHANGING YOUR VOTE BY REVOKING YOUR PROXY

     Your proxy may be revoked at any time before it is voted at the annual
meeting by giving notice of revocation to us, in writing, by execution of a
later dated proxy or by attending and voting at the annual meeting. Simply
attending the annual meeting, however, will not revoke your proxy; you must vote
at the annual meeting.

HOW PROXIES ARE COUNTED

     If you return a signed and dated proxy card but do not indicate how your
shares are to be voted, those shares will be voted FOR each of the listed
proposals. Votes cast by proxy or in person at the annual meeting will be
tabulated by the election inspectors appointed for the annual meeting.

     Shares voted as abstentions on any matter will be counted for purposes of
determining the presence of a quorum at the annual meeting and treated as
unvoted, although present and entitled to vote, for purposes of determining the
approval of each matter as to which a stockholder has abstained. As a result,
abstentions, with respect to any proposal other than the election of directors,
will have the same effect as a vote against such proposal. If a broker submits a
proxy that indicates the broker does not have discretionary authority as to
certain shares to vote on one or more matters, those shares will be counted for
purposes of determining the presence of a quorum at the annual meeting, but will
not be considered as present and entitled to vote with respect to such matters.
Since the Delaware General Corporation Law requires the affirmative vote of the
holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote
on the proposal to approve the sale of our videoconferencing services business,
a "broker non-vote" on such a proposal will have the same effect as a vote
against this proposal.

COST OF SOLICITATION

     We will pay all expenses in connection with this solicitation. Our
officers, directors and other regular employees, who will receive no extra
compensation for their services, may solicit proxies by telephone, telegram or
personal solicitation. In addition to the proxy solicitation material mailed to
stockholders, we have also retained the services of Mellon Investor Services LLC
to assist in the solicitation of proxies for a fee estimated at $9,500.

                             ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
                                    (ITEM 1)

     Directors are elected annually and serve a one-year term. There are six
nominees for election this year. All of the nominees are currently serving as
directors. Each nominee has consented to serve until the next annual meeting if
elected, and until his or her successor is elected and qualified. You will find
detailed information on each nominee below. If any director is unable to stand
for re-election after distribution of this proxy statement, the board may reduce
its size or designate a substitute. If the board designates a substitute,
proxies voting on the original director candidate will be cast for the
substituted candidate. Proxies cannot be voted for a greater number of persons
than the number of nominees named

                                        10


on the enclosed form of proxy. A plurality of the votes cast in person or by
proxy by the holders of common stock represented at the annual meeting is
required to elect a director.

     None of the nominees is related to any other nominee or to any executive
officer or director of our company by blood, marriage or adoption (except
relationships, if any, more remote than first cousin).

     THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS VOTING FOR EACH OF THE SIX NOMINEES.

                       BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND COMMITTEES

     The board of directors held eight regularly scheduled meetings and one
special meeting during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2002. In addition, the
board of directors acted two times by unanimous consent during the fiscal year
ended July 31, 2002.

     The board of directors uses working committees with functional
responsibility in the more complex recurring areas where disinterested oversight
is required. Working committees of the board of directors include the Audit
Committee, the Compensation Committee, the Nominating Committee and the
Executive Committee.

AUDIT COMMITTEE

     The Audit Committee is the communication link between the board of
directors and our independent auditors. In addition to recommending the
appointment of the independent auditors to the board of directors, the Audit
Committee reviews the scope of the audit, the accounting policies and reporting
practices, internal auditing and internal control, compliance with our policies
regarding business conduct and other matters as deemed appropriate. The Audit
Committee held four meetings in fiscal 2002 with the independent auditors and
our management. The members of the Audit Committee during the fiscal year ended
July 31, 2002 were Ms. Cote (Chairperson), and Messrs. Wells and Moeller. Mr.
Moeller resigned as a director of our company, effective September 9, 2002.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE

     The Compensation Committee is responsible for approving the compensation
arrangements of senior management and recommending approval by the board of
directors of amendments to our benefit plans. At four regularly scheduled
meetings during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2002, the Compensation Committee
approved stock option awards pursuant to our stock option plans, and developed
and approved a compensation plan for the chief executive officer of our company.
In addition, the Compensation Committee acted one time by unanimous consent
during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2002. The Compensation Committee was
composed of Messrs. Trimm (Chairman), Matthews, Wells and Mazzucchelli during
the fiscal year ended July 31, 2002. On February 23, 2002, Mr. Matthews passed
away. Mr. Trimm resigned as a director of our company, effective September 5,
2002.

NOMINATING COMMITTEE

     The Nominating Committee is responsible for continuing studies of the size
and composition of the board of directors and for proposing nominees to the
board. The Nominating Committee did not meet during the fiscal year ended July
31, 2002. The Nominating Committee will consider nominees properly

                                        12


recommended by security holders. In order to make a nomination, our bylaws
generally require that advance notice of such nomination be provided to our
company at least 60 days and not more than 90 days prior to the first
anniversary of the preceding year's annual stockholders' meeting, together with
additional information regarding the nominee and the stockholder making such
nominations as called for by our bylaws. During the fiscal year ended July 31,
2002, the Nominating Committee was composed of Mr. Moeller (Chairman) and Ms.
Cote. Mr. Moeller resigned as a director of our company, effective September 9,
2002.

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE

     The Executive Committee is responsible for recommending key strategic and
operational plans for our company. At seven regularly scheduled meetings during
the fiscal year ended July 31, 2002, the Executive Committee discussed the
quarterly focus for our company. The Executive Committee was composed of Messrs.
Snyder (Chairman) and Wells and Ms. Cote, during the fiscal year ended July 31,
2002. In October of 2002, the Executive Committee was disbanded.

     During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2002, with the exception of two
directors who missed one regular meeting each, and one director who missed three
regular meetings, all directors attended 100% of the total number of meetings of
the board and the committees on which that director served. The director who
missed three regular meetings of the board also served on the Audit Committee
and he attended greater than 75% of the aggregate of all meetings of the board
of directors and all meetings held by the Audit Committee during the fiscal year
ended July 31, 2002.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

     During fiscal 2002, each nonemployee director was paid a retainer of $3,000
for each quarter. Additionally, each nonemployee director was paid $1,000 for
the regularly scheduled and special meetings of the board of directors he or she
attended and $250 for participation in each telephonic meeting not considered an
official board of directors' meeting. Total director fees earned in fiscal 2002
were $94,500.

     All nonemployee directors participate in our 1992 Director Stock Option
Plan. Nonemployee directors receive, upon their initial election or appointment
to the board of directors, stock options to purchase 25,000 shares of our common
stock, having an exercise price equal to the market price of our common stock on
the date of grant. Thereafter, each nonemployee director will receive options to
purchase 10,000 shares of our common stock on the anniversary date of his or her
election or appointment to the board of directors. All of these options vest in
equal amounts monthly over a three-year period but cease vesting at the time the
director ceases to be a director.

     F.H. (Dick) Moeller resigned as a member of our board of directors,
effective September 9, 2002. The board of directors voted to accelerate certain
options originally issued to Mr. Moeller, as a director of our company, on
December 17, 2001. The result of the accelerated vesting was that Mr. Moeller's
options to purchase 12,500 shares were 100% vested, bringing his total vested
options on September 9, 2002 to 24,500 shares.

     The compensation of our employee directors is discussed at "Executive
Compensation" below.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

     The Audit Committee is composed of two outside directors and operates under
a charter adopted by the board of directors according to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Nasdaq Stock
Market. The Audit Committee members during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2002
were Ms. Cote (Chairman), and Messrs. Wells and Moeller. The board of directors
believes that all of these directors, with the exception of Mr. Moeller, are
independent as defined by Nasdaq Stock Market. Under the Nasdaq Stock Market
listing requirements, a director will not be considered "independent" if he has
been employed by our company in the current year or the past three years. Mr.
Moeller was chairman of the board until March 2000, and president and chief
executive officer until he resigned in

                                        13


September 1998. Notwithstanding that, the board of directors determined that his
prior employment did not affect his ability to exercise independent judgment.
Mr. Moeller resigned as a director of our company, effective September 9, 2002.

     The following is the report of the Audit Committee with respect to our
audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2002, which
include our consolidated balance sheets as of July 31, 2002 and 2001, and the
related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit)
and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended July 31, 2002,
and the notes thereto. The information contained in this report shall not be
deemed to be "soliciting material" or to be "filed" with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, nor shall such information be incorporated by reference
into any future filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, except to the extent that we
specifically incorporate it by reference in such filing.

  REVIEW WITH MANAGEMENT

     The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed our audited financial
statements with management.

  REVIEW AND DISCUSSIONS WITH INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

     The Audit Committee did not hold any meetings in conjunction with the full
board of directors during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2002. The Audit
Committee has discussed with Ernst & Young LLP, our independent accountants, the
matters required to be discussed by SAS 61 (Codification of Statements on
Accounting Standards) that includes, among other items, matters related to the
conduct of the audit of our financial statements.

     The Audit Committee has received the letter from Ernst & Young LLP required
by Independent Standards Board Standard No. 1, that relates to the accountant's
independence from our company and its related entities, and has discussed with
Ernst & Young LLP their independence from our company.

     Based on the review and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee
recommended to the board of directors that our audited financial statements be
included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31,
2002.

           SUBMITTED BY THE AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

                                Kathleen A. Cote

     The Audit Committee has determined that the provision of services covered
by the two preceding paragraphs is compatible with maintaining the independent
auditors' independence from the company.

REPORT FROM THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REGARDING EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

     As members of the Compensation Committee, it is our duty to administer the
executive compensation program for our company. The Compensation Committee is
responsible for establishing appropriate compensation goals for the executive
officers of our company and evaluating the performance of our executive officers
in meeting these goals. The elements of the executive compensation program
described below are implemented and periodically reviewed and adjusted by the
Compensation Committee.

     The goals of the Compensation Committee in establishing our executive
compensation program are as follows:

     - To fairly compensate our executive officers for their contributions to
       our company's short-term and long-term performance. The elements of our
       executive compensation program are:

       - annual base salaries;

       - quarterly performance bonuses; and

       - equity incentives.

     - To allow our company to attract, motivate and retain the management
       personnel necessary to our company's success by providing an executive
       compensation program comparable to that offered by companies with which
       we compete for such management personnel.

     - To provide an executive compensation program with incentives linked to
       the financial performance of our company, and thereby enhance stockholder
       value. Under this program, incentive compensation for executive officers
       is linked to the financial performance of our company as measured by
       earnings per share and revenue.


     Base Salaries.  The annual base salaries of our executive officers are
determined based on individual performance, experience, duties, levels of
responsibility and a comparison with salary ranges of a representative group of
public companies within the technology sector of a similar size and similar
annual range of revenues, derived from a review of recent publicly filed proxy
statements by ten public companies. A comparison is also made with published
surveys of executive compensation paid in similar industries with comparable
revenues, which for the last fiscal year was the 2001 Radford Executive
Compensation Survey, published by Radford Associates, a provider of national
compensation surveys. The comparison groups used in these surveys are not the
same group as used by us as our new peer group for comparative total returns
purposes. The comparison groups used in these surveys are chosen on a narrower
basis using revenue size as well as industry focus, while the new peer group is
solely industry focused. The Compensation Committee believes that a narrower
focus, using revenue size as well as industry focus, provides more appropriate
comparison information on which to base salary decisions than one that does not
take into account the size of the comparison group members. The financial
performance of comparative group members relative to our financial performance
is only one of the factors used by the Compensation Committee in assessing
compensation. The Compensation Committee does not use empirical formulas based
on financial performance or other factors in setting compensation for the
company's executive officers, but instead considers comparative companies'
income, market capitalization, total assets and annualized total shareholder
returns in conjunction with individual performance and experience of the
company's officers in determining the appropriate level of compensation. The
compensation of our senior executive officers falls approximately within the
range of the 75th percentile of the two types of comparison information used to
determine executive compensation.


     Quarterly Bonus.  The quarterly bonuses available to our executive officers
are based upon the achievement of certain earnings per share, revenue and
operating expense goals, development milestones and other personal objectives
for our company set by the Compensation Committee prior to the beginning of such
measurement period. No quarterly bonus was paid to executive officers for the
second and fourth

                                        15


quarters of fiscal year 2002. Three executive officers received bonuses for the
first quarter of fiscal year 2002, totaling $166,728, which was 133% of the
target bonus of $125,625, reflecting actual earnings per share results exceeding
objectives set by the Compensation Committee. Four executive officers received
bonuses for the third quarter of fiscal year 2002 totaling $134,848, which was
92% of the target bonuses of $146,875.

     The potential bonus that may be earned by each of our executive officers,
other than our chief executive officer, in the aggregate is 50% of their base
salary. Our chief executive officer may earn a bonus of up to 100% of his base
salary. The potential bonus is allocated among the performance objectives which
are based upon company-wide objectives, departmental objectives and individual
performance objectives, each of which is weighted based upon relative priority.
The percentage which is attained of each objective by the applicable executive
officer determines the bonus amount, but generally no bonuses are awarded unless
the company-wide objectives are attained. During fiscal 2002, assuming all
targets were achieved by our executive officers, the officers could have
received $523,750, however, $291,814, or 56%, of the target bonuses was actually
paid out.


     Equity Incentives.  Equity incentives, including grants of stock options
and restricted stock, are determined based on the Compensation Committee's
assessment of the ability of such officers to positively impact our company's
future performance and enhance stockholder value as determined by their
individual performances, as opposed to our overall corporate performance. The
Compensation Committee assesses the nature and scope of the officer's
responsibilities; the officer's contribution to the company's financial results;
and the officer's effectiveness in leading our initiatives to increase
stockholder value. The Compensation Committee also considers the compensation
levels of the top four highest paid executives with a comparison group of
companies provided by Watson Wyatt & Company, a global consulting firm focused
on human capital and financial management. Restricted stock awards are granted
periodically by the Compensation Committee, principally to the company's
executive officers, and generally vest over a longer period of time than stock
options.


     In fiscal 2002, options covering a total of 495,599 shares of common stock
at a weighted average exercise price of $3.87 were granted to executives. See
"Executive Compensation -- Stock Option Grants During Fiscal 2002."


     In fiscal 2002, restricted stock awards of 5,000 shares were granted to
each of Jay Peterson and Kenneth Kalinoski. These restricted stock award grants
were based upon the Compensation Committee's assessment of each officer's
contribution to the company's financial results and their effectiveness in
helping to increase stockholder value. See "Executive Compensation -- Summary
Compensation Table."



     Equity and cash incentives are not limited to executive officers. Grants of
stock options are made to all employees upon joining our company in amounts
determined by the Compensation Committee and are also made to selected employees
as performance related awards and as awards for certain job promotions. The
amounts of such grants are determined based on the individual employee's
position with our company and his or her potential ability to beneficially
impact the performance of our company. Stock option grants and other equity
incentives are not awarded annually, but rather as warranted by individual
performance and experience. Option awards generally vest over a 48-month period.
The amount and vesting of stock options generally are not contingent on
achievement of any performance targets. By giving all employees a stake in the
financial performance of our company, the Compensation Committee's goal is to
provide incentives to all employees of our company to enhance the financial
performance of our company and, thus, stockholder value.



     Fiscal 2002 Compensation of the CEO.  The chief executive officer's salary
was primarily based on a comparison with the compensation levels of chief
executive officers from a comparison group of companies provided by Watson Wyatt
& Company. Additionally, the Compensation Committee assessed the nature and
scope of the chief executive officer's responsibilities; the chief executive
officer's contribution to the company's financial results; and the chief
executive officer's effectiveness in leading our initiatives to increase
stockholder value. In the view of the Compensation Committee, Mr. Snyder, in his
second year as chief executive officer, has continued to demonstrate highly
effective leadership and vision in the face of


                                        16


the current business environment and consistently delivered financial and
operating performance that meets or exceeds business objectives. During fiscal
2002, Mr. Snyder received $300,833 in base salary, a salary that falls
approximately within the range of the top 10% of the two types of comparison
information used by the Compensation Committee to determine executive
compensation, but which the Compensation Committee believes is appropriate in
light of Mr. Snyder's expertise in the technology industry.


     Mr. Snyder's potential annual bonus is 100% of his base salary. Mr. Snyder
received bonuses in the first and third quarters of fiscal year 2002 in an
aggregate amount of $173,737. Mr. Snyder's bonus was based on a set of quarterly
objectives that had to be met in order for any bonus to be awarded. The
quarterly objectives were determined by the Compensation Committee and are
primarily based on meeting or exceeding certain levels of quarterly earnings per
share and end of quarter cash balances. These objectives were met in the first
fiscal quarter of 2002 and the third fiscal quarter of 2002 resulting in bonuses
for those two periods. These objectives were not achieved in the second fiscal
quarter of 2002 and the fourth fiscal quarter of 2002, thus no bonus was awarded
for those periods. Mr. Snyder also received 250,000 stock options, as set forth
in the "Executive Compensation -- Summary Compensation Table" on page 18 of this
proxy statement, all of which vest one year after the date they were granted.
Mr. Snyder was awarded these stock options by the Compensation Committee based
on the nature and scope of his responsibilities; contribution to the company's
financial results; and his effectiveness in leading and shaping our overall
strategy and its initiative to increase stockholder value, and not as a result
of the achievement of any performance targets.


     Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993.  The Omnibus Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1993 added Section 162(m) to the Internal Revenue Code.
With certain exceptions, beginning with the taxable year commencing January 1,
1994, Section 162(m) will prevent publicly held corporations, including our
company, from taking a tax deduction for compensation in excess of one million
dollars paid to our chief executive officer and the other persons named in the
Summary Compensation Table in this proxy statement. Section 162(m) will not
apply to limit the deductibility of performance-based compensation exceeding one
million dollars if:

     - it is paid solely upon attainment of one or more performance goals;

     - it is paid pursuant to a performance-based compensation plan adopted by
       the Compensation Committee; and

     - the terms of the plan are approved by the stockholders before payment of
       the compensation.

     The Compensation Committee has reviewed our compensation plans with regard
to the deduction limitation contained in Section 162(m). The Compensation
Committee believes that option grants under our equity plans meet the
requirements for deductible compensation. The Compensation Committee has decided
for the present not to alter our other compensation plans to meet the
deductibility requirements of the regulations promulgated under the Internal
Revenue Code. The Compensation Committee will continue to review the issue and
its determination under the regulations under Section 162(m) and monitor whether
our compensation plans should be amended in the future to meet the deductibility
requirements. The Compensation Committee does not anticipate that Section 162(m)
will limit the deductibility of any compensation paid in fiscal year 2002. None
of our executive officers were affected by Section 162(m) in fiscal year 2002.

     Mr. T. Gary Trimm resigned as a director of our company, effective
September 5, 2002 and Mr. Gordon Matthews passed away on February 23, 2002. Mr.
Trimm and Mr. Matthews were members of our Compensation Committee in fiscal year
2002.

     Our committees will continue to monitor and review legislative, regulatory
and Nasdaq Stock Market actions in connection with corporate governance, and our
committees will adopt policies and procedures in response to such actions.

(1) The dollar amounts under these columns represent the potential realizable
    value of each grant of options assuming that the market price of our common
    stock appreciates in value from the date of grant at the five percent and
    ten percent annual rates compounded over the ten year term of the option as
    prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission and therefore are not
    intended to forecast possible future appreciation, if any, of the price of
    our common stock.

(2) Weighted average grant price of all stock options granted to employees in
    fiscal 2002.

(3) Appreciation for all stockholders is calculated using the average exercise
    price for all employee optionees of $3.278 granted during fiscal 2002 and
    using the number of shares of our common stock outstanding on July 31, 2002
    of 24,814,384.


(4) Negative values in this column reflect that the exercise price of options
    granted to Mr. Snyder were greater than the market price of the underlying
    common stock on the date of grant. The market price on the date of grant was
    $2.945.

(1) All options held by our chief executive officer and the named executive
    officers were granted under our 1989 Stock Option Plan or our 1996 Stock
    Option Plan. All options granted under the 1989 Stock Option Plan and the
    1996 Stock Option Plan are immediately exercisable. However, our company can
    repurchase shares issued upon exercise of those options, at the exercise
    price, to the extent of the number of shares that have not vested if the
    optionee's employment terminates before all of the optionee's option shares
    become vested. The amounts under the headings entitled "Exercisable" reflect
    vested options as of July 31, 2002 and the amounts under the headings
    entitled "Unexercisable" reflect option shares that have not vested as of
    July 31, 2002.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

     No member of the Compensation Committee is or has been an officer or
employee of our company or any of our subsidiaries or had any relationship
requiring disclosure pursuant to Item 404 of Securities and Exchange Commission
Regulation S-K (Certain Relationships and Related Transactions), with the
exception of Mr. Trimm, who resigned as a director of our company, effective
September 5, 2002, and who is also a principal of Strategic Management, Inc.,
and Mr. Matthews.

  AGREEMENT WITH STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT, INC.

     On October 5, 2000, we agreed to pay a fee to Strategic Management, Inc., a
company in which T. Gary Trimm, one of our former directors, is a principal, to
assist our company in developing a plan to establish our videoconferencing
systems products division as an independent, self-sustaining unit, and to assist
us in assessing strategic alternatives for this division as part of our
company's efforts to restructure the company's business around its video network
software and videoconferencing services business. Pursuant to this engagement,
we agreed to pay Strategic Management, Inc. an hourly rate for services
rendered, up to a maximum of $60,000. If the products division was sold, the
engagement also provided additional contingent compensation to Strategic
Management, Inc., equal to 7% of the consideration received by our company. The
engagement was approved by the disinterested directors of the company. During
fiscal 2001, we paid $69,000 related to this agreement. With the assistance of
Strategic Management, Inc., we completed the sale of our products division to
VTEL Corporation on January 23, 2002. However, since payment to Strategic
Management, Inc. was contingent upon receipt of payment from VTEL Corporation
and VTEL Corporation defaulted on payments of its notes to us and there is
uncertainty of collection of these notes, no liability was accrued for a payment
to Strategic Management, Inc. as of July 31, 2002. Mr. Trimm resigned as a
director of our company, effective September 5, 2002.

                                        20


The board of directors determined that Mr. Trimm's relationship with Strategic
Management, Inc. did not affect his ability to exercise independent judgment as
a member of the Compensation Committee while he served on that committee.

  AGREEMENT WITH MATTHEWS CONSULTING

     In October 2000, we agreed to pay an hourly consulting fee to Matthews
Consulting, a company owned by the former Gordon Matthews, then a director of
the company. Matthews Consulting agreed to assist our company in developing the
company's patent portfolio through consulting services which included the
coordination and supervision of the company's engineers in the prosecution of
patent applications covering inventions developed by the company. Through the
program established with the assistance of Matthews Consulting, the company
initiated a program to file patent applications covering our developed
technology. Through the efforts of Matthews Consulting, the company obtained
additional patents covering its inventions. None of the patents issued through
these efforts have been licensed. We paid an aggregate of $101,208 and $119,508
under this agreement in fiscal 2001 and 2002, respectively. Mr. Matthews who was
one of our company's directors during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2002,
passed away on February 23, 2002. He owned Matthews Consulting during his
lifetime. We do not have any information regarding, and are unable to obtain,
the rate that Matthews Consulting charged non-affiliated customers for services
similar to those Mr. Matthews provided to our company because Mr. Matthews is
now deceased. The board of directors determined that prior to his death, Mr.
Matthews' relationship with Matthews Consulting did not affect his ability to
exercise independent judgment as a member of the Compensation Committee while he
served on that committee.

     In addition, at the time of entering into the agreement with Matthews
Consulting, such fees were considered reasonable and fair compensation for the
services to be rendered and the arrangement was approved by the disinterested
members of the board. No member of the Compensation Committee served on the
compensation committee or as a director of another corporation, one of whose
directors or executive officers served on the Compensation Committee of or whose
executive officers served on our company's board of directors.

     As of July 31, 2002, Messrs. Moeller and Trimm, former directors of our
company, and Mr. Swem, a former Vice President, Operations, had loans
outstanding under this program in the aggregate principal amount of $157,314,
$62,032 and $42,025, respectively.


     No new loans are allowed to be made under this program. This program had
previously allowed our directors and officers to acquire shares of our common
stock with the proceeds of the loans. The interest rates charged on these loans
is fixed at 6.09%. The term of each loan is generally nine years.


  DIRECTOR RESIGNATIONS

     T. Gary Trimm resigned as a member of our board of directors, effective
September 5, 2002. Subsequent to his resignation, Mr. Trimm entered into a
consulting agreement with us, effective September 1, 2002 until December 31,
2002. Mr. Trimm's officer loan balance outstanding at October 31, 2002 was
$39,280.

     F.H. (Dick) Moeller resigned as a member of our board of directors,
effective September 9, 2002. Certain options issued to Mr. Moeller, as a
director of our company on December 17, 2001 were accelerated at the date of his
resignation. The result of the accelerated vesting is that Mr. Moeller's options
to purchase 12,500 shares are all vested, bringing his total vested options on
September 9, 2002 to 24,500 shares. Mr. Moeller's officer loan balance
outstanding at October 31, 2002 was $159,728.

     Our company also agreed to pay fees to Strategic Management, Inc., of which
Mr. Trimm was a principal, and to Matthews Consulting, a company owned by Mr.
Matthews, and both transactions are described under the heading "Compensation
Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation."

EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS; TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT AND CHANGE IN CONTROL AGREEMENTS

     We have not entered into any employment agreements with members of our
senior management. However, we have entered into change-in-control agreements,
also called parachute agreements, with members of our senior management, which
provide that if the officer is terminated within a specified amount of time
after a "change in control" of our company (as that term is defined in the
parachute agreements), in any of the following ways:

     - by our company other than for cause, the officer's death, retirement or
       disability, or

     - by the officer for "good reason,"

we will pay to the officer an amount one times his or her current year's salary
and will accelerate the vesting schedule of his or her unvested stock options.

                           COMPARATIVE TOTAL RETURNS

PERFORMANCE GRAPH

     The following Performance Graph shows the changes over the past five year
period in the value of $100 invested in:

     - our common stock;


     - the CRSP Total Return Index for NASDAQ Stock Market (U.S. Companies),
       also called the NASDAQ Composite Index;



     - the common stock of the historical peer group (as defined below) of
       companies whose returns are weighted according to their respective market
       capitalization for periods up to and including 2001; and



     - a new peer group consisting of the NASDAQ CSRP Total Return Index for
       Computer & Data Processing Services companies.



     The values with each investment as of the beginning of each year are based
on share price appreciation and the reinvestment with dividends on the
respective ex-dividend dates. The historical peer group for the periods ended
July 31, 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2001 consists solely of PictureTel Corporation,
whose business, taken as a whole, resembled our activities. The historical peer
group for the period ended July 31, 1997 consisted of PictureTel and Compression
Labs, Incorporated. We acquired Compression Labs in May of 1997. In October of
2001, PictureTel was acquired by Polycom and thus we have determined to use a
new peer group, consisting of the NASDAQ CSRP Total Return Index for Computer &
Data Processing Services companies.

          PROPOSAL TO SELL SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF THE ASSETS USED IN THE
              OPERATION OF OUR VIDEOCONFERENCING SERVICES BUSINESS
                                    (ITEM 2)

     This section of the proxy statement describes certain aspects of the sale
of substantially all of the assets used in the operation of our
videoconferencing services business. However, we recommend that you read
carefully the complete asset purchase agreement for the precise legal terms of
the agreement and other information that may be important to you. The asset
purchase agreement is included in this proxy statement as Annex A.

THE COMPANIES

  FORGENT NETWORKS, INC.

     Our company designed, manufactured, sold and serviced videoconferencing
systems from its inception in 1985 until its sale of those assets in January
2002. We currently provide visual communications services and products for
enterprise networks, offering global installation and technical support
services, products from multiple vendors and enterprise software. Our
solution-oriented sales effort is focused in the commercial marketplace, while
we maintain our reseller and channel partner relationships in our former
videoconferencing endpoints markets. Our integrated systems group also provides
solutions for customers who have required multiple voice activated cameras,
custom user-interface and other customized requirements. In addition to our
existing service and maintenance offerings, we currently intend to enhance our
network management service capabilities.

     We are researching and developing technologies to provide a video network
enterprise software platform designed to provide interoperability and
compatibility standards for both traditional and internet protocol networks, as
well as drive the migration to video over internet protocol networks. We refer
to these activities as our solutions business, which is conducted under the name
"Forgent Networks." The primary focus of our solutions division is on delivering
the high-end visual communication systems that provide functionality to
customers in markets such as education, government and health care.

     Upon completion of the sale of our videoconferencing services business, we
will concentrate on developing and expanding our video enterprise software and
technology licensing businesses.

     Video Enterprise Software.  Our video enterprise software business enables
enterprises to collaborate videoconferencing effectively and efficiently. Our
Video Network Platform, or VNP, is a network management software that improves
quality of service and cost of ownership in multi-vendor and multi-protocol
environments. We combine VNP with a Global Scheduling System, or GSS, a
state-of-the-art web-based scheduling application, which we call VideoWorks.
VideoWorks is a powerful self-contained package for managing videoconferencing.
Our company primarily delivers its capabilities directly to end users.

     Technology Licensing.  Our technology licensing program is currently
focused on generating license revenues relating to our data compression
technology embodied in U.S. Patent No. 4,698,672 and its foreign counterparts.
Manufacturers in various industries use still-compression technology in their
products, including digital cameras, printers, scanners, and wireless devices,
as well as new emerging products such as new cell phones and wireless sharing
networks. Since the end of fiscal 2002, we have entered into licenses and are
continuing to actively seek licenses with other users of our technology. U.S.
Patent No. 4,698,672, which has generated the licensing revenues, expires in
October 2006 and its foreign counterparts expire in September 2007. Thus, there
can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to effectively license our
technology to others after that time.

     As our company develops and works to enhance its product offerings, it will
continue to adhere to the following strategies:

     - Develop standards-based management tools that will allow effective and
       efficient collaboration to occur, regardless of the hardware or software
       brands that comprise the environment;

                                        24


     - Support Integrated Services Digital Networks, or ISDN, and IP-based
       networks, as well as the transition from ISDN to IP-based networks;

     - Develop industry-leading technology that makes collaboration work;

     - Design software solutions that promote the ease of use, manageability and
       reliability of collaboration;

     - Support heterogeneous environments and alleviate the complexity
       associated with them;

     - Design increasing levels of automation into our software solutions; and

     - Partner with leading software providers to offer best-of-breed solutions.


     Subsequent to the completion of the sale of our videoconferencing services
business, our business will consist of our video enterprise software and
technology licensing businesses. Set forth below is a summary of certain
unaudited pro forma condensed financial data that gives effect to the sale of
our videoconferencing services business. Please see "Unaudited Pro Forma
Condensed Financial Data" beginning on page 56.

     VidCon Holding Corp. is a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned

business.

BACKGROUND OF THE SALE OF OUR VIDEOCONFERENCING SERVICES BUSINESS

     In early summer of 2002 our board of directors began evaluating the
potential sale of the company's videoconferencing services business. The board
determined to undertake this review as the board believed that there were
insufficient growth opportunities present in this business to justify keeping it
as a core business.

     On July 12, 2002, the board of directors retained Raymond James &
Associates, Inc. as its exclusive financial advisor to assist our company in
maximizing stockholder value through an evaluation of our

                                        25


videoconferencing services business. From July 13, 2002, to August 16, 2002,
Raymond James & Associates, Inc. conducted a review of our videoconferencing
services business.

     The board authorized management and Raymond James & Associates, Inc. to
contact potential parties who might be interested in acquiring our
videoconferencing services business. At this time the board had not made any
decision as to what course of conduct to pursue with respect to our
videoconferencing services business.


     From August 19, 2002 to November 2, 2002, Raymond James & Associates, Inc.
and our management contacted 19 potential strategic acquirors and 70 potential
financial investors to gauge interest in a possible transaction involving our
videoconferencing services business. From October 30, 2002 to November 9, 2002,
our company received certain indications of interest for our videoconferencing
services business from York Telecom Corporation, Navigator Equity Partners and
Gores Technology Group. Each of the proposals was structured as an asset sale
and each contained a cash component, while each of the proposals from York
Telecom and Navigator Equity Partners also contained a contingent consideration
component, based on the performance of the videoconferencing services business
subsequent to its sale. The board of directors reviewed each of the indications
of interest received and Raymond James & Associates, Inc. and various members of
our management met with representatives of each group, including Gores
Technology Group, that had indicated an interest in our videoconferencing
services business. The board assessed the overall structure of each proposal,
including what representations and warranties our company was likely to be
required to make, the liabilities our company would be required to retain, the
amount and form of the consideration to be received and the extent of any
indemnification obligations. During this time, due diligence materials were
exchanged and various modifications to the proposals were discussed. The board
ultimately determined that the proposal from Gores Technology Group was superior
to the other two proposals. The board based this determination on the fact that
both of the other offers received contained a smaller cash component, even when
the contingent consideration was factored in, which would have resulted in a
materially diminished overall consideration to our company versus the proposal
from Gores Technology Group. In addition, both of the other offers received
provided for the assumption of fewer liabilities than did the Gores Technology
Group proposal.


     On November 15, 2002, we entered into a non-binding letter of intent with
Gores Technology Group, an affiliate of GTG Holdings, to negotiate an agreement
with GTG Holdings. Subsequent to that date, representatives of our company,
Raymond James & Associates, Inc. and GTG Holdings continued their due diligence
efforts and began to work on the terms of an asset purchase agreement.


     On December 5, 2002, the board met to review the GTG Holdings proposal.
Raymond James & Associates, Inc. gave a presentation to the board regarding the
fairness, from a financial point of view, of the consideration to be received by
the company under the proposal made by GTG Holdings as it existed on that date,
and delivered a written opinion to the effect that the consideration to be
received by us, as it existed on that date, was, from a financial point of view,
fair to the company. Legal counsel for the company also participated. After
carefully evaluating the proposal the board determined to accept the proposal
made by GTG Holdings subject to negotiation of definitive agreements. At this
time the material terms of the GTG Holdings proposal consisted of VidCon
acquiring substantially all of the assets of our videoconferencing services
business in exchange for cash consideration of $11,000,000, subject to
adjustments, and the assumption of substantially all of the liabilities
associated with our videoconferencing services business, which were estimated to
be approximately $11,200,000 at that time. At this time the $11,000,000 cash
portion of the purchase price was to be subject to a purchase price adjustment
based on the net assets and deferred revenue of the videoconferencing services
business at the closing date and the company was also to be subject to
indemnification obligations similar to those described in this proxy statement,
but there were no provisions for the escrow of any of the cash consideration to
pay for either of these possible obligations.


     Between December 5, 2002 and December 11, 2002, there were numerous
telephone discussions variously involving representatives of our company,
Raymond James & Associates, Inc., and our legal counsel and representatives of
GTG Holdings and its legal counsel. The purpose of these discussions was

                                        26



to attempt to come to agreement on any remaining open issues, to begin to
finalize the details of the ancillary documents and the schedules to the asset
purchase agreement and to continue movement towards execution of definitive
agreements. During these discussions, GTG Holdings insisted on a change to the
cash component of the purchase price and the possibility of escrowing some of
the cash proceeds was discussed.



     On December 11, 2002, the board of directors held another meeting by
telephone to discuss the progress of the negotiations with GTG Holdings,
including the cash consideration to be received and the terms of any escrow
arrangements. The board approved a transaction to sell our videoconferencing
services business to VidCon as long as the cash proceeds to the company in the
transaction equaled or exceeded $9,000,000, even if a portion of this amount was
to be escrowed, and as long as substantially all of the liabilities of the
videoconferencing services business were assumed by VidCon. In making its
determination to approve a transaction that met these parameters the board of
directors considered the cash to be received, the liabilities to be assumed and
the overall structure of the transaction and the terms of the asset purchase
agreement. The board also considered the other proposals the company had
received from other potential purchasers, which were materially less favorable
than these parameters. The board of directors also unanimously resolved to
recommend that our stockholders approve and adopt the asset purchase agreement
and the sale of substantially all of the assets used in the operation of our
videoconferencing services business to GTG Holdings, if the final terms of the
transaction met the board's parameters set out above and upon receipt of a
fairness opinion from Raymond James & Associates, Inc. The board instructed
management to continue to negotiate with GTG Holdings to attempt to finalize the
details of the cash component of the purchase price, the escrow, the ancillary
documents and the schedules to the asset purchase agreement and to continue
movement towards execution of definitive agreements.



     Between December 11, 2002 and December 19, 2002 negotiations and
discussions between our company and GTG Holdings continued. On December 19,
2002, the final economic terms of the transaction were finalized. The material
changes from the December 5, 2002, proposal were to decrease the cash
consideration from $11,000,000 to $10,000,000 and to provide for a $1,000,000
escrow to cover potential purchase price adjustments and a $1,000,000 escrow to
cover potential indemnification obligations. These revised terms met the minimum
parameters set out by the board at its December 11, 2002 board meeting, as
disclosed above. Raymond James & Associates, Inc. orally confirmed on December
19, 2002, that this revised consideration to be received by the company was
fair, from a financial point of view, to our stockholders. Raymond James &
Associates, Inc. later confirmed its oral opinion in writing with an opinion
letter (in substantially the same form as its opinion letter dated and delivered
in writing to the Board of Directors on December 5, 2002) dated December 19,
2002, and delivered on April 9, 2003 in connection with the preparation of this
proxy statement. See Annex B for a copy of this letter.



     From December 19, 2002 through the execution of the definitive asset
purchase agreement, GTG Holdings and its legal counsel continued their due
diligence efforts. During this time we, representatives of Raymond James &
Associates, Inc., and our legal counsel and GTG Holdings and its legal counsel
met together and participated by telephone and in person in a series of
negotiations finalizing the terms of the asset purchase agreement and the other
related agreements. These negotiations largely covered the provisions related to
the escrows, finalizing the terms of the ancillary agreements, completing the
schedules to the asset purchase agreement, completing the form of closing
statement to be delivered by us, and finalizing certain issues related to the
employees of the videoconferencing services business. The changes made to the
asset purchase agreement during this time were not material and did not alter
the consideration to be received that was finalized on December 19, 2002. The
purchase price was determined based upon arms-length negotiations.


     The asset purchase agreement was executed as of January 6, 2003. We
announced the execution of the asset purchase agreement on January 7, 2003.

                                        27


REASONS FOR THE SALE OF OUR VIDEOCONFERENCING SERVICES BUSINESS

     We are proposing to sell our videoconferencing services business to VidCon
Holding Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of GTG Holdings, because we believe
that the sale and the terms of the related asset purchase agreement are in the
best interests of our company and our stockholders. The board of directors has
identified various benefits that are likely to result from the sale of our
videoconferencing services business. The board of directors believes the sale of
that business will:

     - allow us to devote substantially all of our energies and resources to
       development of our enterprise software and technology licensing business,
       thereby focusing on licensing versus service contracts, professional
       services versus break/fix repairs and enterprise software offerings
       versus endpoint device repair;

     - provide an improved organizational focus and free up senior management
       from having to oversee a remote business unit;

     - allow us to direct our focus to the potentially better overall returns
       from our enterprise software and technology licensing business, by
       reducing our expenses and increasing our cash balances;

     - allow us to have simplified financial statements by reducing the deferred
       revenue associated with the videoconferencing services business; and


     - allow us to increase our cash reserves from $18,250,000 at January 31,
       2003, by between $8,000,000 and $10,000,000 and thereby provide us with a
       greater ability to pursue acquisitions and withstand business and
       economic slowdowns. The purchase price to be paid to us is subject to
       potential downward adjustments for purchase price adjustments and
       indemnity claims. While we currently do not expect any of these downward
       adjustments to be made, it is possible that these adjustments could
       occur, in which case our cash reserves will not increase as much as
       presently expected.


     In arriving at its determination that the asset sale is in the best
interests of our company and its stockholders, the board of directors carefully
considered the terms of the asset purchase agreement as well as the potential
impacts of the asset sale on our company. As part of this process, the board of
directors considered the advice and assistance of its outside financial advisors
and legal counsel. In determining to authorize the asset sale, the board of
directors considered the factors set out above as well as the following factors:


     - the oral opinion provided on December 19, 2002, which was confirmed in
       writing by an opinion letter delivered on April 9, 2003 in connection
       with the preparation of this proxy statement, that we received from
       Raymond James & Associates, Inc., our company's financial advisor, that
       the consideration to be received by our company pursuant to the asset
       sale is fair to our stockholders from a financial point of view; while
       our board also received an opinion letter from Raymond James &
       Associates, Inc., dated December 5, 2002, relating to the terms of the
       proposed consideration as it existed on that date, the board's reliance
       on Raymond James & Associates, Inc.'s opinion related to the opinion
       provided to board on December 19, 2002, which was delivered when the
       terms of the consideration were finalized;


     - the fact that GTG Holdings' offer was superior to other offers we
       received, both in terms of aggregate consideration and proposed
       transaction structure;

     - the amount of cash included in GTG Holdings' offer and the fact that
       VidCon would assume substantially all of the liabilities of the
       videoconferencing services business;

     - the terms and conditions of the asset purchase agreement, including the
       fiduciary out provision negotiated by the board, which allows the board
       to consider unsolicited offers to purchase the videoconferencing services
       business;

     - the fact that the sale of our videoconferencing services business must be
       approved by the holders of a majority of the company's common stock,
       which ensures that the board will not be taking action of which the
       stockholders disapprove;

                                        28


     - the risk that after the asset sale our company will have a less
       diversified business which would leave our company dependent on the
       performance of our network enterprise software and our licensing
       business;

     - the risk that our company could be exposed to future indemnification
       payments for a breach of the representations, warranties and covenants
       contained in the asset purchase agreement;

     - the risk that the purchase price for the videoconferencing services
       business will be adjusted down if there is a change in the net asset
       value of the assets sold or an increase in deferred revenues associated
       with our videoconferencing services business; and


     - the risk that the asset sale might not be consummated, which could result
       in a decline in the price of our common stock, limit our ability to grow
       and implement our current business strategies and, under certain
       circumstances, result in our paying VidCon a termination fee of $500,000.



     Although the Raymond James & Associates, Inc. opinion was delivered
December 19, 2002 and the definitive agreement was not executed until January 6,
2003, the changes made to the asset purchase agreement during this time were not
material and did not alter the consideration to be received by us that was
finalized on December 19, 2002. The board, therefore, believes it was
appropriate to rely on the December 19, 2002 opinion of Raymond James &
Associates, Inc.



     In view of the variety of factors considered in connection with its
evaluation of the asset sale, the board of directors did not find it practical
to, and did not quantify or otherwise attempt to, assign relative weights to the
specific factors considered in reaching its conclusions. In considering the
opinion we received from Raymond James & Associates, Inc., the board of
directors was aware of the fact that Raymond James & Associates, Inc. will
receive a fee if this transaction is consummated and took it into account in its
deliberations. While Raymond James & Associates, Inc. would not be compensated
as significantly if the transaction is not consummated, the board was of a view
that Raymond James & Associates, Inc. would render its opinion based on its
professional judgment, unaffected by this conflict of interest. Even so,
stockholders should consider this potential conflict of interest in assessing
the importance of the fairness opinion when deciding how to vote on this
proposal. See page 37 for a description of the compensation to be paid to
Raymond James & Associates, Inc.


RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

     The board of directors has determined that the sale of our
videoconferencing services business is in the best interests of our company and
our stockholders. The board of directors has unanimously approved the asset
purchase agreement and unanimously recommends that the stockholders vote in
favor of the proposal to approve the sale of substantially all of the assets
used in the operation of our videoconferencing services business to VidCon, a
wholly-owned subsidiary of GTG Holdings, pursuant to the asset purchase
agreement and the transactions contemplated by the asset purchase agreement.

OPINION OF OUR FINANCIAL ADVISOR

     Our company retained Raymond James & Associates, Inc. to assist in the
consideration of strategic alternatives for our videoconferencing services
business. Our company requested Raymond James & Associates, Inc. to evaluate the
fairness, from a financial point of view, of the consideration to be received by
us in the sale of our videoconferencing services business.


     At a meeting of the board of directors on December 5, 2002 convened to
consider GTG Holdings' proposed purchase, Raymond James & Associates, Inc.
delivered an oral presentation and written opinion to the board of directors to
the effect that, as of such date and based on and subject to the matters set
forth in the opinion and as described below, the consideration to be received by
us pursuant to the asset purchase agreement, as the consideration existed on
that date, was fair, from a financial point of view, to the holders of our
company's common stock. In rendering its December 5, 2002 opinion, during the
course of our negotiations, which were not then complete, Raymond James &
Associates, Inc. assumed and considered the consideration to be received by us
to include the cash consideration of $11,000,000 plus

                                        29



approximately $11,200,000 of liabilities to be assumed, subject to potential
adjustments for purchase price adjustments and indemnity claims. Subsequently,
however, GTG Holdings insisted on a change to the cash component of the purchase
price and to escrows for a portion of the cash consideration.



     Subsequent to the December 5, 2002 board meeting, the company,
representatives of Raymond James & Associates, Inc., and our legal counsel and
GTG Holdings and its legal counsel continued negotiations in an effort to
finalize the terms of the asset purchase agreement, including the cash component
of the consideration to be received and the escrow arrangements. On December 19,
2002, the consideration to be received by us in the transaction was finalized.
The material changes from the December 5, 2002 proposal were to reduce the cash
consideration from $11,000,000 to $10,000,000 and to provide that $2,000,000 of
the cash consideration would be placed in escrow, $1,000,000 for potential
purchase price adjustments and $1,000,000 for potential indemnity claims. On
December 19, 2002, Raymond James & Associates, Inc. orally confirmed that the
consideration to be received by us pursuant to the asset purchase agreement, as
so revised, was fair, from a financial point of view, to the holders of our
company's common stock. Raymond James & Associates, Inc. later confirmed its
oral opinion of December 19, 2002 in writing with an opinion letter (in
substantially the same form as its December 5, 2002 written opinion) dated
December 19, 2002, and delivered on April 9, 2003 in connection with the
preparation of this proxy statement. The December 19, 2002 opinion was based on
total cash consideration of $10,000,000 and liabilities to be assumed of
approximately $11,200,000, subject to potential adjustments for purchase price
adjustments and indemnity claims. In approving this transaction and recommending
it to our stockholders the board is relying on the oral opinion, since confirmed
in writing, of Raymond James & Associates, Inc. and not on the December 5, 2002
opinion, inasmuch as the consideration to be received by us was reduced between
December 5, 2002 and December 19, 2002, the date the oral opinion was rendered.



     In rendering its opinion, Raymond James & Associates, Inc. assumed that an
amount of liabilities would be assumed by VidCon and did not independently
review or appraise those liabilities. The amount of liabilities used by Raymond
James & Associates, Inc. was derived from financial information provided by the
company. No limitations were imposed by the board of directors upon Raymond
James & Associates, Inc. with respect to the investigations it made or
procedures it followed in rendering its opinion. The opinion addresses only the
fairness, from a financial point of view, of the consideration to be received by
us in the transaction and does not address the overall fairness of the
transaction.



     The full text of the written opinion of Raymond James & Associates, Inc.,
dated December 19, 2002, which sets forth the assumptions made, matters
considered and limits on the review undertaken, is attached as Annex B to this
proxy statement. Our stockholders are urged to read the opinion in its entirety.
Raymond James & Associates, Inc.'s written opinion is addressed to the board of
directors, is directed only to the fairness, from a financial point of view, of
the consideration to be received by us pursuant to the asset purchase agreement,
not to the overall fairness of the transaction, and does not constitute a
recommendation to any of our stockholders as to how such stockholder should vote
at the annual meeting. The opinion does not express any opinion with respect to
any reasons, legal, business or otherwise, that may support the decision of the
board to approve or consummate the sale of the videoconferencing services
business. The terms of the asset purchase agreement, including the amount of the
consideration, were determined pursuant to negotiations between us and GTG
Holdings, and not pursuant to recommendations of Raymond James & Associates,
Inc.



     In connection with Raymond James & Associates, Inc.'s review of the
proposed transaction and the preparation of the opinion, Raymond James &
Associates, Inc. has, among other things:



          1. reviewed the financial terms and conditions as stated in the draft
     of the asset purchase agreement as well as the terms made available to
     Raymond James & Associates, Inc. by the company;


          2. reviewed the unaudited financial statements of our
     videoconferencing services business as of and for the years ended July 31,
     2002, 2001 and 2000, and for the quarter ended October 31, 2002;

                                        30



          3. reviewed the financial projections of our videoconferencing
     services business prepared by us for the years ended December 31, 2002 and
     2003 and the fiscal years ended July 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005;



          4. reviewed our annual and quarterly reports on Form 10-K and 10-Q for
     the fiscal years ended July 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000;



          5. reviewed certain other information on the videoconferencing
     services business made available to Raymond James & Associates, Inc. by us;



          6. discussed with members of our senior management certain information
     relating to the aforementioned, and any other matters which Raymond James &
     Associates, Inc. deemed relevant to the opinion inquiry;



          7. reviewed selected publicly available information concerning
     companies in businesses considered by Raymond James & Associates, Inc. to
     be most comparable to our videoconferencing services business;



          8. reviewed financial information and other information concerning
     selected completed business combinations deemed to be comparable to our
     videoconferencing services business; and



          9. reviewed certain other information deemed by Raymond James &
     Associates, Inc. to be relevant for purposes of the opinion.



     In conducting its investigation and analyses and in arriving at its
opinion, Raymond James & Associates, Inc. took into account such accepted
financial and investment banking procedures and considerations as it deemed
relevant, including a review of the following: historical and projected
revenues, operating earnings, net income of our videoconferencing services
business and certain other publicly held companies in businesses it believed to
be comparable to our videoconferencing services business; the current and
projected financial position and results of operations of our videoconferencing
services business; and the general condition of the securities markets.



     As described in its opinion, Raymond James & Associates, Inc. assumed and
relied upon the accuracy and completeness of all information supplied or
otherwise made available to Raymond James & Associates, Inc. by us or any other
party and did not attempt to verify independently any such information. In
addition, Raymond James & Associates, Inc. did not make or rely upon any
independent evaluation or appraisal of any of the assets or liabilities
(contingent or otherwise) of our company in preparing and delivering its
opinion, nor did Raymond James & Associates, Inc. assess the likelihood that
there would be any downward adjustments to the consideration to be received by
us from potential purchase price adjustments or indemnity claims. Raymond James
& Associates, Inc. assumed that the financial forecasts, estimates, projections,
and other information with respect to our videoconferencing services business
examined by Raymond James & Associates, Inc. had been reasonably prepared in
good faith on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and
judgments of our management, and Raymond James & Associates, Inc. relied upon
each party to advise it promptly if any such information previously provided to
or discussed with Raymond James & Associates, Inc. had become inaccurate or had
been required to be updated during the period of its review. In addition,
Raymond James & Associates, Inc. has assumed that the transaction will be
consummated substantially in accordance with the terms set forth in the asset
purchase agreement.



     The opinion was based on economic, market, and other conditions as in
effect on, and the information available to it as of December 19, 2002, the date
of the opinion. Changes in the amount of liabilities to be assumed by VidCon are
currently expected to result in VidCon assuming approximately $9,500,000 in
liabilities, as opposed to the $11,200,000 assumed by Raymond James &
Associates, Inc. in rendering its opinion. Raymond James & Associates, Inc. is
not required to update its opinion for these changes, we will not receive
another fairness opinion prior to the closing unless a material amendment is
made to the financial terms of the asset purchase agreement and we may not
refrain from closing the transaction based on changes in assumed liabilities. As
a result, stockholders should consider that the fairness opinion is based on
aggregate consideration of approximately $21,200,000, when the actual
consideration received by


                                        31



us is currently estimated to be approximately $19,500,000. The board of
directors determined to approve the proposed transaction and recommend it to our
stockholders based on a number of factors, including the fairness opinion
analyses, with some additional emphasis on the ranges of consideration offered
to us by other bidders after conducting an extensive auction process. Please see
"Reasons for the Sale of Our Videoconferencing Services Business" beginning on
pages 28 and 29 for a complete description of the factors considered by the
board in determining to approve and recommend the transaction with VidCon.


FAIRNESS OPINION ANALYSES


     The following is a summary of the analyses performed by Raymond James &
Associates, Inc. in connection with the delivery of Raymond James & Associates,
Inc's December 5, 2002 opinion, which analyses were applied by Raymond James &
Associates, Inc. in rendering its December 19, 2002 opinion. This summary is not
a complete description of the analyses underlying the opinion. Raymond James and
Associates, Inc.'s opinion regarding the fairness of the consideration to be
received by us in the transaction was not based on any one analysis or any
particular subset of these analyses but rather gave consideration of all of the
analyses taken as a whole.


     Discounted Cash Flow Analysis.  Raymond James & Associates, Inc. performed
a discounted cash flow analysis based on the unlevered discounted cash flow of
the projected three-year financial performance of our videoconferencing services
business. Raymond James & Associates, Inc. prepared projections for calendar
years 2003-2005 for our videoconferencing services business based on our
projections for calendar years 2003-2005 and on certain assumptions provided by
our management regarding the performance of our videoconferencing services
business. Terminal values were calculated by applying an earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, multiple ranging from
3.5x to 5.5x to the projected EBITDA of our videoconferencing services business
in fiscal year 2005. Discount rates ranging from 12% to 18% were selected to
reflect the risk inherent in our business and our projections. Based on this
analysis, our implied equity value ranged from $14.7 million to $28.6 million
with a midpoint of $21.2 million. Discounted cash flow analysis is a widely used
valuation methodology, but it relies on numerous assumptions, including assets
and earnings growth rates, terminal values, and discount rates. This analysis is
not necessarily reflective of the actual value of our videoconferencing services
business.

     Analysis of Publicly Traded Comparable Companies.  Raymond James &
Associates, Inc. analyzed selected historical financial, operating, and stock
market data of our videoconferencing services business and other publicly traded
companies that Raymond James & Associates, Inc. deemed to be comparable to our
videoconferencing services business. The eight public companies deemed by
Raymond James & Associates, Inc. to be reasonably comparable to our
videoconferencing services business in terms of services offered, markets
served, and business prospects were Clear One Communications Corp., Electronic
Data Systems Corp., Genesys S.A., MCSi, Inc., Perot Systems, Predictive Systems,
Raindance Communications, Inc. and Wire One Technologies, Inc.

     Although we were included in the analysis for reference purposes, our
videoconferencing services business was not included in any calculation of
implied multiples for purposes of Raymond James & Associates, Inc.'s analysis.

     The comparable company and comparable transaction analyses, as is typical,
were based on market data for companies deemed to be similar to our
videoconferencing services business and from previous transactions involving
companies deemed similar to our videoconferencing services business. Since no
company or transaction is precisely comparable to our videoconferencing services
business, the analyses relied on data from a group of companies and
transactions. Accordingly, an analysis of the results of the foregoing
necessarily involves complex considerations and judgments concerning the
differences in financial and operating characteristics of our videoconferencing
services business and other factors that could affect the public trading value
of the comparable companies to which they are being compared. If single company
or transaction comparisons were to be used, the implied value for our
videoconferencing services business would vary significantly depending on which
company or transaction is chosen. For this reason,

                                        32


the analyses present the results for not only the highest and lowest implied
values for each analysis but also the results for the median and mean values for
the entire group of companies or transactions analyzed.

     Raymond James & Associates, Inc. examined certain publicly available
financial data of the eight comparable public companies, including the ratio of
enterprise value (equity value plus total debt, including preferred stock, less
cash and cash equivalents) to the following metrics: trailing twelve months net
revenues, trailing twelve months EBITDA, and trailing twelve months earnings
before interest and taxes, or EBIT, trailing twelve months net income, calendar
year 2002 net revenues, calendar year 2002 EBITDA, calendar year 2002 EBIT,
calendar year 2002 net income, calendar year 2003 net revenues, calendar year
2003 EBITDA, calendar year 2003 EBIT and calendar year 2003 net income.

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

     Raymond James & Associates, Inc. then applied the ratios derived from its
comparable public company analysis to our videoconferencing services business
unaudited operating results for its fiscal trailing twelve months, calendar year
2002 and calendar year 2003 to determine an implied enterprise value for our
videoconferencing services business. The following table summarizes the results
of this analysis.

     Analysis of Selected Merger and Acquisition Transactions.  Raymond James &
Associates, Inc. compared the proposed asset sale with selected comparable
merger and acquisition transactions. No transaction analyzed in Raymond James &
Associates, Inc.'s comparable transaction analysis was identical to the asset
sale. Accordingly, this analysis necessarily involves complex considerations and
judgments concerning differences in financial and operating characteristics and
other factors between us and the other transactions considered that could affect
the acquisition value of the companies to which our videoconferencing services
business was being compared.

     Raymond James & Associates, Inc. performed an analysis of 35 merger and
acquisition transactions of electronic conferencing services and outsourced IT
services companies that occurred between June, 1998 and October, 2002. The 35
merger and acquisition transactions considered were:

     Auction Process.  Raymond James & Associates, Inc. also considered the
results of the auction process conducted by it and the company from August 19,
2002 to November 2, 2002, during which time 89 potential purchasers were
contacted, as described on page 26 above. The company received three indications
of interest as a result of this process and Raymond James & Associates, Inc.
concluded that the proposal received from GTG Holdings was superior to the other
indications of interest received by the company.



     Opinion of Raymond James & Associates, Inc.  The summary set forth above
does not purport to be a complete description of the analyses of data underlying
Raymond James & Associates, Inc.'s opinion or its presentation to the board of
directors. The preparation of a fairness opinion is a complex process and is not
necessarily susceptible to a partial analysis or summary description. Raymond
James & Associates, Inc. believes that its analyses must be considered as a
whole and that selecting portions of its analyses, without considering the
analyses taken as a whole, would create an incomplete view of the process
underlying the analyses set forth in its opinion. In addition, Raymond James &
Associates, Inc. considered the results of all such analyses and did not assign
relative weights to any of the analyses, so the ranges of valuations resulting
from any particular analysis described above should not be taken to be Raymond
James & Associates, Inc.'s view of the actual value of the videoconferencing
services business. In undertaking its analysis, Raymond James & Associates, Inc.
considered, among the other aspects of its analyses discussed above, those which
indicated a potential value for the videoconferencing services business greater
than the proposed asset sale consideration.



     In summary, while Raymond James & Associates, Inc. based its opinion on the
totality of the analyses it conducted and not on any single analysis, Raymond
James & Associates, Inc. nonetheless examined each of the cases where the
implied value under a particular analysis exceeded the proposed asset sale
consideration and came to the opinion that in each case there were circumstances
which argued against relying solely on the results of such analysis. In
considering these circumstances, as discussed above, and in considering the
results of the complete set of analyses using a variety of methodologies,
Raymond James & Associates, Inc. formed its opinion described herein.


     In performing its analyses, Raymond James & Associates, Inc. made numerous
assumptions with respect to industry performance, general business, economic and
regulatory conditions and other matters, many of which are beyond our control.
The analyses performed by Raymond James & Associates, Inc. are

                                        36



not necessarily indicative of actual values, trading values or actual future
results which might be achieved, all of which may be significantly more or less
favorable than suggested by such analyses. Such analyses were prepared solely as
part of Raymond James & Associates, Inc.'s analysis of the fairness of the
consideration to be received by us from a financial point of view and were
provided to the board of directors. The analyses do not purport to be appraisals
or to reflect the prices at which businesses or securities might be sold. In
addition, as described above, the opinion of Raymond James & Associates, Inc.
was one of many factors taken into consideration by the board of directors in
making its determination to approve the transaction. Consequently, the analyses
described above should not be viewed as determinative of the board of directors'
opinion with respect to the value of the videoconferencing services business.


     We have paid Raymond James & Associates, Inc. a retainer fee of $50,000, as
well as an additional fee of $50,000 for rendering the fairness opinion. If the
transaction is consummated, Raymond James & Associates, Inc. will receive an
additional fee of approximately $450,000. We have also agreed to reimburse
Raymond James & Associates, Inc. for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and
to provide customary indemnification protection to Raymond James & Associates,
Inc. In the ordinary course of business, Raymond James & Associates, Inc. may
trade in our securities for its own account and for the accounts of its
customers and, accordingly, may at any time hold a long or short position in
such securities. Except as set forth here, we have not engaged in any other
material relationships with Raymond James & Associates, Inc. during the past two
years.


     Raymond James & Associates, Inc. has consented to the descriptions of its
opinion in, and the inclusion of its opinion as an annex to, this proxy
statement.


     Our company selected Raymond James & Associates, Inc. based on its
experience, expertise and reputation. Raymond James & Associates, Inc. is
actively engaged in the investment banking business and regularly undertakes the
valuation of businesses in connection with business combinations and similar
transactions.

PROCEEDS OF THE SALE OF OUR VIDEOCONFERENCING SERVICES BUSINESS

     Our company will retain the proceeds of the sale of our videoconferencing
services business. It is the intention of the board of directors to use the
proceeds, along with our other cash and cash equivalents, in connection with our
future business plan to grow our remaining business by expanding product and
service offerings and to potentially further expand through acquisitions of
complementary businesses. At this time, however, we do not have any formal
acquisition plans or proposals outstanding or other arrangements to pursue
alternate business opportunities with potential acquisition targets.

STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL OF THE SALE OF OUR VIDEOCONFERENCING SERVICES BUSINESS;
VOTE REQUIRED

     Under section 271 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the sale by our
company of "all or substantially all" of our assets requires approval by the
affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all
outstanding shares of our common stock on the record date. We, in consultation
with our legal counsel, have determined that the sale of substantially all of
the assets used in the operation of our videoconferencing services business to
VidCon may constitute a sale of "all or substantially all" of our assets based
on current interpretations of that term. The asset purchase agreement provides
that, as a condition to our obligation to consummate the transactions
contemplated by the asset purchase agreement, we must obtain the consent of our
stockholders, if required under Delaware General Corporation Law. Therefore, the
affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of
all outstanding shares of our common stock on the record date must be obtained.

NO CHANGES TO THE RIGHTS OF SECURITY HOLDERS; NO APPRAISAL RIGHTS

     Our stockholders will not experience any change in their rights as
stockholders as a result of the sale of substantially all of the assets used in
the operation of our videoconferencing services business. We are organized under
the corporate laws of the State of Delaware. Neither Delaware law, our
certificate of
                                        37


incorporation nor our bylaws provides for appraisal or other similar rights for
dissenting stockholders in connection with this transaction. Accordingly, our
stockholders will have no right to dissent and obtain payment for their shares.

REGULATORY MATTERS

     No material regulatory approvals, filings or consents are required to
complete the sale of our videoconferencing services business.

ACCOUNTING TREATMENT

     The proposed sale of substantially all of the assets used in the operation
of our videoconferencing services business is expected to be accounted for as a
sale of assets.

MATERIAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

     The following describes the material United States federal income tax
consequences of the proposed sale of our videoconferencing services business to
VidCon that are generally applicable to our company and its stockholders. The
following discussion is based on the current provisions of the Internal Revenue
Code, existing, temporary, and proposed Treasury regulations thereunder, and
current administrative rulings and court decisions. Future legislative, judicial
or administrative actions or decisions, which may be retroactive in effect, may
affect the accuracy of any statements in this summary with respect to the
transactions entered into or contemplated prior to the effective date of those
changes.

     The proposed sale of our videoconferencing services business to VidCon will
be a transaction taxable to our company for United States federal income tax
purposes. Our company will recognize taxable income equal to the amount realized
on the sale in excess of our tax basis in the assets sold. The amount realized
on the sale will consist of the cash our company receives in exchange for the
assets sold, including the amount of any cash subsequently received from the
amounts escrowed at closing, plus the amount of liabilities assumed by VidCon.


     Although the sale of our videoconferencing services business to VidCon will
result in a taxable gain to the Company, our available federal income tax net
operating and net capital loss carry forwards, as currently reflected on the
company's consolidated federal income tax returns, are in excess of the
estimated amount of the gain. However, for purposes of computing our Alternative
Minimum Tax liability, Internal Revenue Code Section 56(d) does not permit a
corporation's net operating loss carryforwards to offset more than 90% of the
corporation's alternative taxable income. Due to this limitation and depending
upon the operating results during the remaining quarters of our fiscal year
ending July 31, 2003, we may incur Alternative Minimum Tax, which, in general,
will result in an effective tax rate of approximately two percent. The
availability and amount of tax loss carry forwards are subject to audit and
adjustment by the Internal Revenue Service. In the event that the Internal
Revenue Service adjusts the loss carry forwards, our company may incur a tax
liability.


     Our stockholders will experience no federal income tax consequences as a
result of the consummation of the proposed sale of our videoconferencing
services business to VidCon.

     Our company files income tax returns in more than one state. Because state
income tax laws do not necessarily follow federal law, and because state laws
themselves differ, the state income tax consequences of the sale of our
videoconferencing services business to VidCon will vary state by state. The tax
loss carry forwards in a particular state may not completely offset state
taxable income, and state income tax may be incurred on the sale. However, it is
not anticipated that the sale will result in a material amount of state income
taxes.

     EACH HOLDER OF OUR COMMON STOCK IS URGED TO CONSULT HIS OR HER OWN TAX
ADVISOR AS TO THE FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE SALE, AND ALSO AS TO
ANY STATE, LOCAL, FOREIGN OR OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES BASED ON HIS OR HER OWN
PARTICULAR FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES.
                                        38


VOTING BY OUR DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

     As of           , 2003, our directors and executive officers owned of
record           shares of our common stock, representing approximately   % of
the outstanding shares of common stock. Directors and executive officers,
representing approximately   % of the outstanding shares of common stock on the
record date, have agreed to vote at the annual meeting in favor of the proposal
to sell substantially all of the assets used in the operation of our
videoconferencing services business to VidCon, pursuant to the terms of voting
agreements entered into by such directors, executive officers and GTG Holdings
and VidCon.

INTERESTS OF MANAGEMENT, DIRECTORS AND SIGNIFICANT STOCKHOLDERS IN THE SALE OF
OUR VIDEOCONFERENCING SERVICES BUSINESS

     We have entered into change-in-control agreements, also called parachute
agreements, with members of our senior management, which provide that if the
officer is terminated within a specified amount of time after a "change in
control" of our company we will pay to the officer an amount equal to one times
his or her current year's salary and will accelerate the vesting schedule of his
or her unvested stock options. The definition of "change in control" contained
in the parachute agreements includes, among other things, the stockholders of
the company approving a sale of all or substantially all of the company's
assets. While not dispositive of the issue for purposes of the parachute
agreements, the consummation of the transactions set forth in this proxy
statement could be deemed to represent a change in control, as defined in those
agreements. In order to forestall any ambiguity related to this question, the
members of our senior management that have these agreements have agreed to waive
any consequences under these agreements resulting from the consummation of the
sale of our videoconferencing services business to VidCon.

     Dennis Egan, our Vice President, Services, will become employed by VidCon
and enter into an employment agreement with VidCon upon the consummation of the
sale of our videoconferencing services business to VidCon. Dennis Egan has also
agreed to waive his rights under his parachute agreement with the company, to
terminate such agreement and to waive all claims against us in connection with
the parachute agreement, effective as of the closing of the asset purchase
agreement, in exchange for our agreement to extend the exercise period for his
options and to pay him a cash payment of $170,000.

OUR OPERATIONS FOLLOWING THE SALE OF OUR VIDEOCONFERENCING SERVICES BUSINESS

     Following the sale of our videoconferencing services business, we will no
longer engage in that business. Our remaining business operations will consist
primarily of the sale of network management and scheduling software and patent
and intellectual property licensing.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS YOU SHOULD TAKE INTO ACCOUNT IN DECIDING HOW TO VOTE ON
THE PROPOSAL TO SELL OUR VIDEOCONFERENCING SERVICES BUSINESS

     You should carefully consider the special considerations described below as
well as other information provided to you in this document in deciding how to
vote on the proposal to sell our videoconferencing services business. The
special considerations described below are not the only ones facing our company.
Additional considerations not presently known to us or that we currently believe
are immaterial may also impair our business operations. If any of the following
special considerations actually occur, our business, financial condition or
results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of our
common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

  SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING THE PROPOSAL TO SELL OUR VIDEOCONFERENCING
  SERVICES BUSINESS

  The purchase price is subject to a downward adjustment, so that we may not
  receive the aggregate $10,000,000 cash consideration of the purchase price.

     Pursuant to the terms of the asset purchase agreement, we will enter into
an escrow agreement at closing with GTG Holdings, VidCon and an escrow agent,
whereby $2,000,000 of the $10,000,000 cash

                                        39



consideration will be placed with the escrow agent, $1,000,000 of which is for
potential purchase price adjustments and $1,000,000 of which is for potential
indemnity claims. The purchase price adjustment escrow will be used to pay for
purchase price adjustments resulting from the final determination that either:


     - the net assets that were transferred to VidCon on the closing date were
       less than $3,800,000, or

     - the deferred revenue assumed by VidCon on the closing date was greater
       than $7,600,000.


     To the extent that these adjustments have not already been accounted for in
any adjustment to the $8,000,000 of cash we are to receive at closing, these
adjustments will initially be taken out of the $1,000,000 escrowed specifically
for this purpose. If these adjustments were to exceed that $1,000,000, then the
company would be required to pay such excess to VidCon. The cash placed in
escrow for this purpose is generally payable 120 days after the closing.


     The indemnity claim escrow will be used to pay for losses incurred by
VidCon and/or GTG Holdings arising out of or resulting from:

     - any inaccuracy in any representation or the breach of any warranty made
       by us in the asset purchase agreement;

     - our company's failure to duly perform or observe any covenant or
       agreement in the asset purchase agreement that we are required to perform
       or observe, whether prior to, at or after the date of closing; or


     - liabilities and obligations that VidCon has not assumed.


     These losses will initially be taken out of the $1,000,000 escrowed
specifically for this purpose. If these losses were to exceed that $1,000,000,
then the Company would be required to pay such excess to VidCon and/or GTG
Holdings. The cash placed in escrow for this purpose is generally payable 18
months after the closing.

  We will be unable to compete in the videoconferencing services business for
  four years from the date of closing.

     We have agreed that, without the prior written consent of GTG Holdings and
VidCon, we will not,

     - engage in;

     - own or control any interest in (except as a passive investor of less than
       two percent of the capital stock or publicly traded notes or debentures
       of a publicly held company);

     - act as an officer, director, partner, member or joint venturer of;

     - lend credit or money for the purpose of establishing or operating; or

     - allow such entity's name or reputation to be used by,

any entity that is engaged in any line of business that competes with the
videoconferencing services business as it exists on the date of closing anywhere
in the world. Our enterprise network management and scheduling software
business, the bundling and sale of our enterprise network management and
scheduling software with appropriate hardware and our patent and intellectual
property licensing businesses are not deemed to compete with the
videoconferencing services business. However, the non-compete provisions will
restrict our ability to engage in business in the videoconferencing services
business for four years from the date of closing.

                                        40


  There is no plan to distribute any of the proceeds of the sale of our
  videoconferencing services business to our stockholders.

     We do not intend to distribute any portion of the proceeds from the sale of
our videoconferencing services business to our stockholders. Currently, we
intend to use the proceeds from the sale of that business to fund and grow our
remaining businesses.

  Management could spend or invest the proceeds from the sale of our
  videoconferencing services business in ways with which our stockholders may
  not agree, including the possible pursuit of other market opportunities.

     Our management could spend or invest the proceeds from the sale of our
videoconferencing services business in ways with which our stockholders may not
agree. The investment of these proceeds may not yield a favorable return.
Furthermore, because the market for our remaining businesses is evolving, in the
future we may discover new opportunities that are more attractive. As a result,
we may commit resources to these alternative market opportunities. This action
may require us to limit or abandon our currently planned focus on collaboration
tools for the enterprise software market. If we change our business focus we may
face risks that may be different from the risks associated with the enterprise
software market.

  The asset purchase agreement will expose us to contingent liabilities.

     Under the asset purchase agreement, we have agreed to indemnify GTG
Holdings and VidCon for any breach of our representations and warranties
contained in the asset purchase agreement and for other matters, subject to
certain limitations. For example, an indemnification claim by GTG Holdings or
VidCon might result if we are inaccurate in any of our representations about the
assets comprising our videoconferencing services business. Significant
indemnification claims by GTG Holdings and VidCon could have a material adverse
effect on our business. Such claims will initially be taken out of the
$1,000,000 of the cash consideration to be escrowed by the company specifically
for this purpose, so that we may never receive any of this $1,000,000. In
addition, if the aggregate of all indemnification claims were to exceed the
$1,000,000 held in escrow specifically for this purpose, the company would be
required to pay any such excess to GTG Holdings and VidCon. In addition to the
$1,000,000 to be held in escrow for indemnity claims by GTG Holdings and VidCon,
we are also required to place an additional $1,000,000 of the $10,000,000 cash
consideration in escrow for possible purchase price adjustments.


  The fairness opinion was rendered by Raymond James & Associates, Inc. prior to
  the execution of the definitive asset purchase agreement.



     In rendering its fairness opinion of December 19, 2002, that the
consideration to by received by us was fair, from a financial point of view, to
the company's stockholders, Raymond James & Associates, Inc. based its opinion
on the proposed terms of the transaction as they existed on that date. While the
changes made to the asset purchase agreement between December 19, 2002 and
January 6, 2003 were not material and did not alter the consideration to be
received by us that was finalized on December 19, 2002, the definitive asset
purchase agreement was not executed until approximately two and a half weeks
after the delivery of the fairness opinion. When evaluating the fairness opinion
of Raymond James & Associates, Inc., stockholders should consider the fact that
a delay occurred between the delivery of the fairness opinion and the execution
of the definitive asset purchase agreement and the possibility that intervening
factors not considered could have affected the opinion.



  The fairness opinion does not address changes in the value of the liabilities
  to be assumed since the date of the opinion.



     We do not intend to obtain an updated fairness opinion of Raymond James &
Associates, Inc. unless a material amendment is made to the financial terms of
the asset purchase agreement. Raymond James & Associates, Inc.'s fairness
opinion of December 19, 2002, assumes that as of the date of the opinion, the
liabilities to be assumed by VidCon would be approximately $11,200,000. Changes
in the liabilities actually assumed by VidCon at the closing will alter the
total consideration received by us in the


                                        41



transaction. As of the date of this proxy statement, it is estimated that the
total liabilities to be assumed by VidCon at closing will be approximately
$9,500,000. Therefore, Raymond James & Associates, Inc.'s opinion will not
accurately address the fairness of the consideration at the time the transaction
is completed but only as of the date on which the opinion was rendered. In
considering the proposal and Raymond James & Associates, Inc.'s fairness
opinion, stockholders should also consider the fact that Raymond James &
Associates, Inc. has not expressed an opinion on the ultimate consideration to
be actually received by us in this transaction, after giving effect to any
downward adjustments.



  Many of the valuation methodologies used by Raymond James & Associates, Inc.
  in evaluating the fairness of the consideration to be received by us in this
  transaction indicate mean and median valuations in excess of the aggregate
  consideration we expect to receive on the closing of this transaction.



     Many of the valuation methodologies used by Raymond James & Associates,
Inc. in evaluating the fairness of the consideration to be received by us in
this transaction indicate mean and median valuations for our videoconferencing
services business in excess of the aggregate consideration we expect to receive
from VidCon in this transaction. Please see "Fairness Opinion Analyses"
beginning on page 32 for a full description of these analyses. The board of
directors was aware of these analyses, and took them into account, when
considering whether to approve the proposed transaction with VidCon and
recommend it to our stockholders. The board of directors determined to approve
the proposed transaction and recommend it to our stockholders based on a number
of factors, including the fairness opinion analyses, with some additional
emphasis on the ranges of consideration offered to us by other bidders after
conducting an extensive auction process. Please see "Reasons for the Sale of Our
Videoconferencing Services Business" beginning on page 28 for a complete
description of the factors considered by the board in determining to approve and
recommend the transaction with VidCon.


  The failure to complete the sale of our videoconferencing services business
  may result in a decrease in the market value of our common stock and may
  create substantial doubt as to our ability to grow and implement our current
  business strategies.

     The sale of our videoconferencing services business is subject to a number
of contingencies, including approval by our stockholders and other customary
closing conditions. Among other conditions, the closing of the asset purchase
agreement is subject to approval of the sale by our stockholders and we cannot
predict whether we will succeed in obtaining this approval. As a result, we
cannot assure you that the sale of our videoconferencing services business will
be completed. If our stockholders fail to approve the proposal at the annual
meeting or if the sale of our videoconferencing services business is not
completed for any other reason, the market price of our common stock may
decline. In addition, failure to complete the sale of our videoconferencing
services business may substantially limit our ability to grow and implement our
current business strategies.

  If our stockholders do not approve the sale of our videoconferencing services
  business, there may not be any other offers from potential acquirors.

     If our stockholders do not approve the sale of our videoconferencing
services business, we may seek another purchaser for our videoconferencing
services business. Although we had discussions with various parties concerning
such a purchase, none of these parties may now have an interest in such a sale
or be willing to offer a reasonable purchase price.

  SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS RELATING TO OUR COMPANY IF OUR VIDEOCONFERENCING
  SERVICES BUSINESS IS SOLD

  Our success will depend on the success of our new business model.

     In accordance with our current restructuring efforts, we are currently
transitioning our business and realigning our strategic focus towards a new core
market, network enterprise software and technology licensing. Internal changes
resulting from the business restructuring announced by us during 2001 and 2002
are substantially complete, but many factors may negatively impact our ability
to implement our

                                        42


strategic focus, including our ability or possible inability to manage the
implementation and development of our new network product business, sustain the
productivity of our workforce and retain key employees, manage operating
expenses and quickly respond to and recover from unforeseen events associated
with the restructuring. We may be required by market conditions and other
factors to undertake additional restructuring efforts in the future. Our
business, results of operations or financial condition could be materially
adversely affected if we are unable to manage the implementation and development
of our new business strategy, sustain the productivity of our workforce and
retain key employees, manage our operating expenses or quickly respond to and
recover from unforeseen events associated with any future restructuring efforts.

  Our network software product is new and has limited market awareness.

     Our network software product was introduced in the fall of 2001, and as
such, it has limited market awareness and, to date, limited sales. Our future
success will be dependent in significant part on our ability to generate demand
for our network software products and professional services. To this end, our
direct and indirect sales operations must increase market awareness of our
products to generate increased revenue. Our products and services require a
sophisticated sales effort targeted at the senior management of our prospective
customers. All new hires will require training and will take time to achieve
full productivity. We cannot be certain that our new hires will become as
productive as necessary or that we will be able to hire enough qualified
individuals or retain existing employees in the future. We cannot be certain
that we will be successful in our efforts to market and sell our products, and
if we are not successful in building greater market awareness and generating
increased sales, future results of operations will be adversely affected.

  Development and market acceptance of our enterprise software products and
  related tools are subject to significant risks.

     We expect that our future financial performance will depend significantly
on revenue from existing and future enterprise software products and the related
tools that we plan to develop, which is subject to significant risks. There are
significant risks inherent in a new product introduction, such as our existing
VNP and GSS software products. Market acceptance of these and future products
will depend on continued market development for collaboration management. We
cannot be certain that our existing or future product offerings will meet
customer performance needs or expectations when shipped or that it will be free
of significant software defects or bugs. If our products do not meet customer
needs or expectations, for whatever reason, our sales would be adversely
affected and further, upgrading or enhancing the product could be costly and
time consuming.

  Licensing revenues are difficult to predict and subject to risk.

     Our intellectual property licensing revenues are difficult to predict. Our
licensing program involves risks inherent in technology licensing, including
risks of protracted delays, possible legal challenges that would lead to
disruption or curtailment to the program, increasing expenditures associated
with the pursuit of the program, and other risks that could adversely affect our
licensing program. Thus, there can be no assurance that we will be able to
continue to license our technology to others. If we fail to meet the
expectations of public market analysts or investors, the market price of our
common stock may decrease significantly. Quarterly operating results may fail to
meet these expectations for a number of reasons, including the inability of
licensees to pay our license and other fees, a decline in the demand for our
patented technology, higher than expected operating expenses, and license delays
due to legal and other factors.

  Patents and other proprietary rights will provide uncertain protection of our
  proprietary information and our inability to protect a patent or other
  proprietary right may harm our business.

     Our success and ability to compete are substantially dependent on our
proprietary technology and trademarks. We seek to protect these assets through a
combination of patent, copyright, trade secret, and

                                        43


trademark laws, as well as confidentiality procedures and contractual
provisions. These legal protections afford only limited protection and
enforcement of these rights may be time consuming and expensive. Furthermore,
despite our best efforts, we may be unable to prevent third parties from
infringing upon or misappropriating our intellectual property. Also, competitors
may independently develop similar, but not infringing, technology, duplicate
products, or design around our patents or other intellectual property.

     Our patent applications or trademark registrations may not be approved.
Moreover, even if approved, the resulting patents or trademarks may not provide
us with any competitive advantage or may be challenged by third parties. If
challenged, patents might not be upheld or claims could be narrowed. Any
litigation surrounding our rights could force us to divert important financial
and other resources away from business operations.

  We may be unable to adequately respond to rapid changes in technology.

     The market for our products is characterized by rapidly changing
technology, evolving industry standards and frequent product introductions. The
introduction of products embodying new technology and the emergence of new
industry standards may render our existing products obsolete and unmarketable if
we are unable to adapt to change. A significant factor in our ability to grow
and to remain competitive is our ability to successfully introduce new products
that embody new technology, anticipate and incorporate evolving industry
standards and achieve levels of functionality and price acceptable to the
market.

  Our future success will depend on our ability to manage any growth in our
  business.

     If we are successful in increasing the revenues of our enterprise network
management and scheduling software business we may be required to expand our
operations. If we are required to expand our operations, those expansions will
likely result in new and increased responsibilities for management personnel and
place significant strain on our management, operating and financial systems and
other resources. To accommodate any such growth and compete effectively, we will
be required to implement improved information systems, procedures and controls,
and to expand, train, motivate and manage our work force. Our future success
will depend to a significant extent on the ability of our current and future
management personnel to operate effectively both independently and as a group.
We cannot assure you that our personnel, systems, procedures and controls will
be adequate to support our future operations.

                          THE ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT

     We believe this summary describes the material terms of the asset purchase
agreement. However, we recommend that you read carefully the complete agreement
for the precise legal terms of the asset purchase agreement and other

ASSETS SOLD

       specifically excluded that is used in the conduct of the
       videoconferencing services business.

ASSETS RETAINED

     We are retaining certain assets, including the following assets:

     - any cash, cash equivalents or marketable securities;

     - any contract or agreement relating to the videoconferencing services

       after the closing of the asset purchase agreement;

     - general books of account and books of original entry that comprise our's
       or the services business' permanent accounting or tax records and books

ASSUMED LIABILITIES

     As partial consideration for the purchase of the assets, VidCon will assume
certain liabilities related to our videoconferencing services business,
including:

     - all liabilities set forth on our closing statement related to the
       videoconferencing services business, including trade and other accounts
       payable, items received but not invoiced, accrued expenses and deferred
       revenue of the videoconferencing services business;

     - all obligations to customers after the closing date of the asset purchase
       agreement arising from the operation of the videoconferencing services
       business on or prior to the closing date, but not including any
       liabilities for any breach of such obligations by us or liabilities in
       excess of those which are required to be set forth on our closing
       statement for future performance of the obligations to customers; and


     - all liabilities, obligations and commitments incurred in the operation of
       our videoconferencing services business after the closing date of the
       asset purchase agreement and arising out of the contracts assumed by
       VidCon, but not including any liabilities for any breach of such
       obligations by us or liabilities in excess of the deferred revenue
       required to be set forth on our closing statement, estimated to be
       approximately $7,500,000 as of the date of this proxy statement.



     It is estimated that, as of the date of this proxy statement, the total
liabilities to be assumed by VidCon will be approximately $9,500,000.


CLOSING DATE

     The closing of the sale of our videoconferencing services business will
take place within two days after our stockholders approve the sale of
substantially all of the assets used in the operation of the videoconferencing
services business and all other closing conditions are satisfied, unless the
parties agree upon another time. It is the intent of the parties to complete the
sale of our videoconferencing services business as soon as practicable following
approval by our stockholders of the sale of the videoconferencing services
business.

CONSIDERATION


     VidCon will pay us approximately $19,500,000 for the assets of our
videoconferencing services business, consisting of the assumption of
substantially all of the liabilities associated with our videoconferencing
services business as set out above, as well as the following cash consideration:


     - $8,000,000 in cash, as adjusted pursuant to the terms of the asset
       purchase agreement, payable at the closing;


     - $1,000,000 in cash, to be placed in escrow and generally payable 120 days
       after the closing pursuant to the terms of the escrow agreement, as
       adjusted for the purchase price adjustment pursuant to the terms of the
       asset purchase agreement; and



     - $1,000,000 in cash, to be placed in escrow and generally payable 18
       months after the closing pursuant to the terms of the escrow agreement,
       as adjusted for indemnity claims by GTG Holdings or VidCon pursuant to
       the terms of the asset purchase agreement.


                                        46



     The aggregate cash consideration that we receive will be decreased by
purchase price adjustments and indemnity claims. The initial purchase price
adjustment will be made to the $8,000,000 that we are to receive at closing,
based upon our good faith estimate to be delivered five days prior to the
closing of the amount of net assets to be transferred to VidCon and the amount
of deferred revenue being assumed by VidCon on the closing date. The asset
purchase agreement provides for a post-closing reconciliation of any pre-closing
purchase price adjustments. Pursuant to the terms of the asset purchase
agreement, we are required to place $1,000,000 of the $10,000,000 cash
consideration in escrow for approximately 120 days following the closing to pay
for possible purchase price adjustments, and $1,000,000 of the $10,000,000 cash
consideration in escrow for approximately 18 months following the closing to pay
for possible indemnity claims by GTG Holdings and VidCon.



     The purchase price adjustment escrow will be used to pay for purchase price
adjustments resulting from the final determination that either:


     - the net assets that were transferred to VidCon on the closing date were
       less than $3,800,000, or

     - the deferred revenue assumed by VidCon on the closing date was greater
       than $7,600,000.


     To the extent that these adjustments have not already been accounted for in
any adjustment to the $8,000,000 of cash we are to receive at closing, these
adjustments will initially be taken out of the $1,000,000 escrowed specifically
for this purpose. If these adjustments were to exceed that $1,000,000, then the
company would be required to pay such excess to VidCon.


     The indemnity claim escrow will be used to pay for losses incurred by
VidCon and/or GTG Holdings arising out of or resulting from:

     - any inaccuracy in any representation or the breach of any warranty made
       by us in the asset purchase agreement;

     - our company's failure to duly perform or observe any covenant or
       agreement in the asset purchase agreement that we are required to perform
       or observe, whether prior to, at or after the date of closing; or


     - liabilities and obligations that VidCon has not assumed.



     These losses will initially be taken out of the $1,000,000 escrowed
specifically for this purpose. If these losses were to exceed that $1,000,000,
then the Company would be required to pay such excess to VidCon and/or GTG
Holdings. Please see "-- Indemnification" on page 51 for a full explanation of
these provisions.



     As of the date of this proxy statement, we do not anticipate that there
will be a downward adjustment to the cash we are to receive for either purchase
price adjustments or indemnity claims, however we can give no assurances that
either or both of these adjustments will not occur.


     The company believes that the source of the cash that VidCon will use to
pay the cash consideration will be from VidCon's and/or GTG Holdings' internal
sources. VidCon and GTG Holdings have represented to us that they have the
financial capability, in the ordinary course of business and without seeking any
additional third party financing, to fulfill their commitments under the asset
purchase agreement. While the Company cannot be certain that VidCon and/or GTG
Holdings will have the necessary cash on hand to consummate the transaction, the
company believes that it is reasonable to assume that they will have the cash on
hand based upon VidCon's and GTG Holdings' representations to that effect and
based upon Gores Technology's general business reputation.

CONDITIONS TO COMPLETION OF ASSET PURCHASE

     Each party's obligation to complete the sale of our videoconferencing
services business is subject to the prior satisfaction or waiver of certain
conditions. If any of the closing conditions are waived, we will consider the
facts and circumstances at that time and make a determination as to whether a
resolicitation of proxies from our stockholders is appropriate. No determination
can be made at this time as to which, if

                                        49


any, of the closing conditions are likely to be waived by us or VidCon. The

TERMINATION OF THE ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT

  TERMINATION

     Notwithstanding approval by our stockholders of the asset purchase
agreement and the transactions contemplated by the asset purchase agreement, the
asset purchase agreement may be terminated, and the sale of our
videoconferencing services business may be abandoned, at any time prior to the
closing, in any of the following ways:

     - by the mutual written agreement of us, VidCon and GTG Holdings;

     - by either us or VidCon and GTG Holdings if:

       - the sale of the videoconferencing services business is not completed by
                   , 2003, other than as a result of the failure by the party
         proposing to terminate the asset purchase agreement to perform its
         obligations;

       - an order, decree or ruling is entered restraining, enjoining or
         otherwise prohibiting the completion of the sale of our
         videoconferencing services business;

       - our stockholders fail to approve the sale of our videoconferencing
         services business at the annual meeting; or

       - the other party materially breaches its representations or agreements
         so that a closing condition would not be satisfied and the breach
         remains uncured 30 days following notice, as long as the party
         terminating the agreement is not also in material breach of its
         obligations under the asset purchase agreement.

                                        50


     In addition, GTG Holdings and VidCon may terminate the asset purchase
     agreement if:

       - our board of directors withdraws or modifies in an adverse manner its
         recommendation of the sale of the videoconferencing services business
         or approves or recommends another acquisition proposal for our
         videoconferencing services business;

       - we fail to include in this proxy statement the approval and

         recommendation of the sale of our videoconferencing services business
         within 10 calendar days after a written request from GTG Holdings or
         VidCon to do so.

  EFFECT OF TERMINATION

     If the asset purchase agreement is terminated, we and GTG Holdings and
VidCon will have no liability or obligations to one another other than for
confidentiality, the termination fee set out below and damages for breach of the
asset purchase agreement, if any.

TERMINATION FEE

     We will pay to VidCon a $500,000 termination fee if any of the following
events occur:

     - GTG Holdings and VidCon terminate the asset purchase agreement due to:

       - our board of directors withdrawing or modifying in an adverse manner
         its recommendation of the sale of our videoconferencing services
         business or approving or recommending another acquisition proposal for
         our videoconferencing services business;

       - our failure to include in the proxy statement the approval and
         recommendation of our board of directors for the sale of our

         within 10 calendar days after a written request from GTG Holdings or
         VidCon to do so; or

     - if prior to the annual meeting, an acquisition proposal for our
       videoconferencing services business has been publicly announced or
       communicated to our board of directors and stockholders and not
       withdrawn, and within 12 months after the earlier of GTG Holdings and/or
       VidCon terminates the asset purchase agreement or the asset purchase
       agreement is terminated otherwise by its terms, we enter into an
       agreement with respect to an alternative acquisition proposal or
       consummate an alternative acquisition proposal with respect to our
       videoconferencing services business.

INDEMNIFICATION

  INDEMNIFICATION

     Under the asset purchase agreement, we are obligated to indemnify and hold
harmless VidCon and GTG Holdings from and against all losses that any of those
parties incurs arising out of or resulting from:

     - any inaccuracy in any representation or the breach of any warranty made
       by us in the asset purchase agreement;

     - our company's failure to duly perform or observe any covenant or
       agreement in the asset purchase agreement that we are required to perform
       or observe, whether prior to, at or after the date of closing;

     - the liabilities and obligations that VidCon has not assumed.

                                        51


     The asset purchase agreement provides that VidCon and GTG Holdings will,
jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless our company from and against
all losses that any of those parties incurs arising out of or resulting from:

     - any inaccuracy in any representation or the breach of any warranty made
       by VidCon or GTG Holdings in the asset purchase agreement;

     - VidCon's or GTG Holdings' failure to duly perform or observe any covenant
       or agreement in the asset purchase agreement that they are required to
       perform or observe, whether prior to, at or after the date of closing;
       and

     - the liabilities and obligations assumed by either of them.

  LIMITS ON INDEMNIFICATION

     Neither we, with certain limited exceptions, nor GTG Holdings and VidCon
will be obligated to indemnify the other for any losses under the asset purchase
agreement until the aggregate amount of those losses exceeds $150,000 for such
party, in which event such indemnity shall apply to all such claims. Except as
described below, we will not be obligated to indemnify either GTG Holdings or
VidCon for any losses in excess of $10,000,000, and neither VidCon nor GTG
Holdings will be obligated to indemnify us for any losses in excess of the same
amount.

     No limitations on indemnification will apply for VidCon's or GTG Holdings'
losses arising from any of the following:

     - fraud by us;

     - breach of one of our covenants in the asset purchase agreement;

     - losses suffered by VidCon and GTG Holdings from the liabilities and
       obligations that neither has assumed; or

     - losses suffered by VidCon and GTG Holdings from a breach of our
       representations concerning title to the assets, our employee benefit
       plans and taxes.

     No limitations on indemnification will apply for our company's losses
arising from any of the following:

     - fraud by either GTG Holdings or VidCon;

     - breach of one of VidCon's or GTG Holdings' covenants in the asset
       purchase agreement; and

     - losses suffered by our company from the liabilities and obligations
       assumed by either GTG Holdings or VidCon.

     We will begin paying any of our indemnification obligations by offsetting
those amounts against the $1,000,000 of the $10,000,000 cash consideration to be
placed in escrow specifically for such claims. To the extent that $1,000,000
does not satisfy all indemnification claims that we may ultimately be required
to pay, we would have to pay VidCon and/or GTG Holdings such excess.

NONCOMPETITION AND NONSOLICITATION AGREEMENTS

     We have agreed that, without the prior written consent of GTG Holdings and
VidCon, we will not,

     - engage in;

     - own or control any interest in (except as a passive investor of less than
       two percent of the capital stock or publicly traded notes or debentures
       of a publicly held company);

     - act as an officer, director, partner, member or joint venturer of;

                                        52


     - lend credit or money for the purpose of establishing or operating; or

     - allow such entity's name or reputation to be used by,

any entity that is engaged in any line of business that competes with the
videoconferencing services business as it exists on the date of closing anywhere
in the world.

     In addition, VidCon and GTG Holdings have agreed to a limited noncompete
with us and VidCon, GTG Holdings and we have all agreed not to solicit each
others' employees for employment for a period of one year after the closing of
the asset purchase agreement.

EXPENSES

     Each party to the asset purchase agreement will bear its own expenses
incurred in connection with the sale of our videoconferencing services business.
Our expenses include the costs of preparing, filing with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, printing and mailing this proxy statement.

AMENDMENT

     The asset purchase agreement may only be amended in a written document
signed by our company, VidCon and GTG Holdings.

ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS RELATED TO THE ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT

     In conjunction with the closing of the sale of our videoconferencing
services business, we will enter into a transition services agreement with
VidCon whereby we will provide, for a fee at actual cost, certain transition
services for VidCon related to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

     We will also enter into a reseller agreement, whereby VidCon will be able
to resell our software products and a co-marketing arrangement, whereby we will
receive a commission for referring videoconferencing related service business to
VidCon. Under the terms of the software reseller agreement, VidCon will receive
a discount of up to 20% on the GSS and VNP software products it resells for us.
VidCon will receive an additional 2.5% discount when it agrees to perform first
level support for the same sales. No discount or incentive is provided for the
resale of our company's software support services. The software reseller
agreement terminates upon the later of five months after execution, if executed
after August 1, 2003, or December 31, 2003, however it is annually renewable
with the mutual written consent of our company and VidCon. The co-marketing
agreement provides that a fee will be paid by VidCon to our company upon the
referral of qualified leads for customers who will purchase our hardware and
related services, in the amount of 8% of the hardware sold and 2% of the related
services sold. Similarly, a referral fee of 8% will be paid by our company to
VidCon for providing qualified leads resulting in the sale of our GSS and VNP
software. Related software services are excluded from the co-marketing fee
arrangement. The co-marketing agreement has a term of one year from execution,
however it is automatically renewed unless terminated by us or VidCon pursuant
to the terms of the agreement.

     Since we are retaining the lease for the King of Prussia, Pennsylvania
facility where the videoconferencing services business is located, we have
agreed to sublease a portion of that facility to VidCon after the closing of the
asset purchase agreement.

     We will enter into an escrow agreement at closing with GTG Holdings, VidCon
and an escrow agent, whereby $2,000,000 of the $10,000,000 cash consideration
will be placed with the escrow agent, $1,000,000 of which is for purchase price
adjustments and $1,000,000 of which is for indemnity claims. The purchase price
adjustment escrow will be used to pay for adjustments to the purchase price
resulting from the final determination that either:

     - the net assets that were transferred to VidCon on the closing date were
       less than $3,800,000, or

     - the deferred revenue assumed by VidCon on the closing date was greater
       than $7,600,000.

                                        53


     To the extent that these adjustments have not already been accounted for in
any adjustment to the amount of cash we receive at closing, these adjustments
will initially be taken out of the $1,000,000 escrowed specifically for this
purpose. If these adjustments were to exceed that $1,000,000, then the company
would be required to pay such excess to VidCon. The cash placed in escrow for
this purpose is generally payable 120 days after the closing.

     The indemnity claim escrow will be used to pay for losses incurred by
VidCon and/or GTG Holdings arising out of or resulting from:

     - any inaccuracy in any representation or the breach of any warranty made
       by us in the asset purchase agreement;

     - our company's failure to duly perform or observe any covenant or
       agreement in the asset purchase agreement that we are required to perform
       or observe, whether prior to, at or after the date of closing; or

     - the liabilities and obligations that VidCon has not assumed.

     These losses will initially be taken out of the $1,000,000 escrowed
specifically for this purpose. If these losses were to exceed that $1,000,000,
then the Company would be required to pay such excess to VidCon and/or GTG
Holdings. The cash placed in escrow for this purpose is generally payable 18
months after the closing.

     THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSED
SALE OF SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF THE ASSETS USED IN THE OPERATION OF OUR
VIDEOCONFERENCING SERVICES BUSINESS.

(1) This number represents $8,000,000 that we will receive at the closing of the
    sale of our videoconferencing services business.

(2) The net consideration received at closing in the amount of $8,000,000 less
    the net assets sold of $6,986,000 represents the pro forma gain of
    $1,014,000 at closing.

(3) These numbers represent $1,000,000 that will be escrowed for approximately
    120 days after closing, and another $1,000,000 that will be escrowed for
    approximately 18 months after closing. If and when the escrowed amounts are
    released, we will recognize additional gain on the transaction.

                    RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF AUDITORS
                                    (ITEM 3)

     Pursuant to the recommendation of the Audit Committee, the board of
directors has appointed Ernst & Young LLP, independent accountants, to audit our
consolidated financial statements for the year ending July 31, 2003. We are
advised that no member of Ernst & Young LLP has any direct financial interest or
material indirect financial interest in our company or any of its subsidiaries
or, during the past three years, has had any connection with our company or any
of its subsidiaries in the capacity of promoter, underwriter, voting trustee,
director, officer or employee.

     A representative of Ernst & Young LLP is expected to be present at the
annual meeting of our stockholders, will have the opportunity to make a
statement if such representative desires to do so, and will be available to
respond to appropriate questions.

     While stockholder ratification is not required for the selection of Ernst &
Young LLP since the board of directors has the responsibility for the selection
of our company's independent auditors, the selection is being submitted for
ratification at the annual meeting solely with a view toward soliciting the
stockholders' opinion thereon, which opinion will be taken into consideration in
future deliberations.

     THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR RATIFICATION BY THE
STOCKHOLDERS OF THIS APPOINTMENT.

               ADJOURNMENT OR POSTPONEMENT OF THE ANNUAL MEETING
                                    (ITEM 4)


     Our board of directors is requesting that the stockholders approve an
adjournment or postponement of the annual meeting, to solicit additional
proxies, to such time and place as designated by the presiding officer of the
meeting. We may use the time from the initial convening of the annual meeting
until it is reconvened to solicit votes for the approval of any of the items for
which stockholder approval is being sought pursuant to this proxy statement. At
the adjourned meeting, the company may transact any business which might have
been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than
thirty days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the
adjourned meeting, we will give notice of the adjourned meeting to each
stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.



     THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR ADJOURNMENT OR POSTPONEMENT OF
THE ANNUAL MEETING, TO SEEK ADDITIONAL PROXIES, TO SUCH TIME AND PLACE AS
DESIGNATED BY THE PRESIDING OFFICER OF THE MEETING.


                                 OTHER MATTERS

     As of this date, the board of directors does not know of any business to be
brought before the annual meeting other than as specified above. However, if any
matters properly come before the annual meeting, it is the intention of the
persons named in the enclosed proxy to vote such proxy in accordance with their
judgment on such matters.

                                        62


          STOCK OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

     Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act requires our officers and
directors, and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of the our common
stock, or "10% Stockholders," to file reports of ownership and changes in
ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Based solely upon
information provided to us by individual officers, directors and 10%
Stockholders, we believe that all of these filing requirements were satisfied by
our officers, directors and 10% Stockholders.

                             STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS

     Pursuant to various rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
Commission, a stockholder seeking to include a proposal in our proxy statement

proxy statement and form of proxy card related to the 2003 annual meeting and
may not submit a matter for consideration at the 2003 annual meeting, regardless
of whether presented for inclusion in our proxy statement and form of proxy
card, unless the stockholder has timely complied with our bylaw requirements
which set a notice deadline after which a stockholder will not be permitted to
present a proposal at our stockholder meetings. The bylaws state that in order
for business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder,
the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to our
secretary. To be timely, a stockholder's notice must be delivered to or mailed
and received at our principal executive offices not less than 60 days nor more
than 90 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year's annual
meeting. A stockholder's notice to the secretary must set forth as to each
matter the stockholder proposes to bring before the meeting a brief description
of the

                                        64


business desired to be brought before the meeting and the reasons for conducting
such business at the meeting; the name and address, as they appear on our books,
of the stockholder proposing such business and the name and address of the
beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made; the class and

stockholder and by the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is
being made; and any material interest of such stockholder of record and
beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made in such business.
A notice given pursuant to this advance notice bylaw will not be timely with
respect to our 2003 meeting unless duly given by no later than           , 2003

          (vi) the trade name "Forgent," any trademarks of the Seller and any
     service and trade names of the Seller (the "Excluded Trademarks" and with
     the Excluded Business Software and the Excluded Patents and Patent Rights,
     the "Excluded Intellectual Property"); and

          (vii) the real property lease described on Schedule 2.1(n) with
     respect to certain real property located at 3100 Horizon, King of Prussia,

     Seller's rights thereunder, (i) through (vii) being collectively referred
     to herein as the "Excluded Assets."

     2.2  Non-Assignable Contracts.  In the case of any Contracts, Equipment
Leases or licenses with respect to Intellectual Property that are part of the
Purchased Assets, which by their terms or by virtue of their subject matter are
not assignable without the consent of a third party (collectively, the "Non-
Assignable Contracts," all of which are listed on Schedule 2.2 attached hereto),
Seller will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain, prior to or after the
Closing Time, any written consents necessary to convey to Buyer the benefit
thereof, it being understood that such reasonable best efforts shall not include
any requirement to (a) pay any consideration or (b) offer or grant financial
accommodations to any third party with respect to any such Non-Assignable
Contract. Buyer shall cooperate with Seller, in such manner as may be reasonably
requested and at Seller's expense, in connection therewith; provided that Buyer
shall not be obligated to agree to pay any consideration or increase the
consideration payable under any such Non-Assignable Contract or to make any
other agreement that would affect adversely in any other way the economics for
Buyer under such Non-Assignable Contract, or would make the obligations intended
to be assumed by Buyer thereunder more burdensome. Nothing in this Agreement
shall be construed as an attempt or an agreement to assign or cause the
assignment of any Non-Assignable Contract included in the Purchased Assets which
is in law nonassignable without the consent of the other party or parties
thereto, unless such consent shall have been given. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that any third party to a Non-Assignable Contract has
not consented to an assignment thereof to Buyer for any reason, then Buyer shall
not have any liability or obligation to Seller, such third party or any other
party with respect to such Non-Assignable Contract except as set forth below. In
the event that Buyer consummates its purchase hereunder and any Non-Assignable
Contract has not been assigned to Buyer for any reason then Seller shall use its
reasonable best efforts to enter into an arrangement to provide Buyer the
benefits of such Non-Assignable Contract. If Seller shall have made such
arrangements with respect to any Non-Assignable Contract, Buyer will assume the
obligations of Seller to be performed on and after the Closing Date and will
perform and fulfill such obligations as though such Non-Assignable Contract has
been assigned to Buyer, and Parent and Buyer shall jointly and severally
indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse Seller for all Adverse Consequences
incurred by Seller as a result of such arrangements; such indemnification, hold
harmless payments and reimbursements to be made promptly upon the written
request of Seller. If Seller, after complying with its obligations set out
above, cannot enter into an arrangement to provide Buyer the benefits of a
Non-Assignable Contract, then Seller, upon the written consent of Buyer (such
consent not to be unreasonably withheld), shall have the right to take all
action necessary to terminate the Non-Assignable Contract in accordance with its
terms, effective as of the Closing Time, including, if so requested by Buyer,
the exercise, in the case of installment purchase Contracts or Equipment Leases,
of any purchase options available under any such Contract or Equipment Lease,
with any prepayment premiums, penalties or forfeitures associated with such
termination (or purchase option payments) to be for the account of Buyer and
settled as of the Closing Time.

     2.3  Commitment to Purchase and Accept.  Upon the terms and subject to the
conditions set forth in this Agreement, Buyer shall purchase, accept and acquire
the Purchased Assets, free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances
whatsoever, and in full payment for such purchase shall pay, or cause to be
paid, to Seller, the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.4.

                                       A-10


     2.4  Purchase Price.

          (a) The purchase price for the Purchased Assets (the "Purchase Price")
     shall be an amount equal to $10,000,000, as adjusted pursuant to Section
     2.6, payable by Buyer to Seller in immediately available funds, as follows:

             (i) $8,000,000 at Closing, as adjusted pursuant to Section 2.6 (the
        "Closing Cash Amount"), and

             (ii) $2,000,000 (the "Holdback").

          (b) At the Closing, the Buyer shall deliver on behalf of the Seller
     the Holdback to the Escrow Agent, as defined in the escrow agreement (the
     "Escrow Agreement") to be substantially in the form attached hereto as
     Exhibit 2.4(b). The Holdback shall be released as follows:

             (i) $1,000,000 of the Holdback (the "Purchase Price Adjustment
        Holdback") shall be held in escrow in accordance with the terms of the
        Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall release the Purchase Price
        Adjustment Holdback to the Seller and/or the Buyer pursuant to the terms
        of the Escrow Agreement and Section 2.6.

             (ii) $1,000,000 of the Holdback (the "Indemnity Holdback") shall be
        held in escrow in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. The
        Escrow Agent shall release the Indemnity Holdback to the Seller and/or
        the Buyer pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement and Section 9.7.

     2.5  Assumption of Liabilities.

          (a) In connection with the acquisition of the Purchased Assets, at the
     Closing, subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement,
     Buyer shall assume and agree to pay or perform, or cause to be paid or
     performed, the following liabilities and obligations of Seller (the
     "Assumed Obligations"):

             (i) The liabilities of the Business set forth on the Closing Date
        Statement, including, but not limited to, the Deferred Revenue but not
        including any such liability to the extent it exceeds the amount with
        respect thereto set forth on the Closing Date Statement (as finally
        determined), but only with respect to such excess; and

             (ii) Seller's obligations to customers after the Closing Date
        arising from the operation of the Business on or prior to the Closing
        Date, but not including (A) any liability, obligation or commitment of
        Seller for any breach thereof by Seller or a predecessor-in-interest
        occurring prior to, on or after the Closing Date, or (B) liabilities as
        of the Closing Time of the type required by GAAP to be reflected on the
        Closing Date Statement for future performance of such obligations in
        excess of the amount with respect thereto as reflected on the Closing
        Date Statement (as finally determined), but only with respect to such
        excess; and

             (iii) Liabilities, obligations and commitments incurred in the
        operation of the Business after the Closing Date, and liabilities,
        obligations and commitments arising out of the Contracts (other than the
        Excluded Contracts), Equipment Leases and the real property lease[s]
        which are part of the Purchased Assets, but not including (A) any
        liability, obligation or commitment of Seller for any breach thereof by
        Seller or a predecessor-in-interest occurring prior to, on or after the
        Closing Date, or (B) liabilities as of the Closing Time of the type
        required by GAAP to be reflected on the Closing Date Statement for
        future performance under the Contracts that are in excess of the amount
        thereof as reflected on the Closing Date Statement (as finally
        determined), but only with respect to such excess.

          (b) Except for the Assumed Obligations, Buyer shall not assume or
     agree to pay, perform or discharge any liabilities or obligations of
     Seller, whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise (collectively,
     the "Excluded Liabilities"). Excluded Liabilities shall include, without
     limitation, liabilities based on or arising out of or in connection with
     (i) any liability of a type required to be set forth on the Closing Date
     Statement in excess of the amount actually set forth on the Closing Date
     Statement (as finally determined), but only with respect to such excess,
     (ii) any obligation relating to
                                       A-11


     Seller's employees that arose prior to the Closing (other than accrued
     vacation to the extent set forth on the Closing Date Statement (as finally
     determined)), (iii) any liabilities or obligations for any Taxes of Seller
     other than those deferred Tax obligations with respect to the Purchased
     Assets set forth on the Closing Date Statement (as finally determined),
     (iv) any liabilities or obligations arising under or associated with the
     Excluded Contracts, (v) any intercompany account payable, or (vi) any
     liabilities or obligations of Seller for borrowed money.

     2.6  Minimum Net Assets.

          (a) No later than five (5) business days prior to the Closing Date,
     Seller shall deliver to Buyer a good faith estimate of the Purchased Assets
     and the Assumed Obligations of the Business as of the Closing Time,
     prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently with the balance
     sheet furnished pursuant to Section 4.5 (provided that, to the extent that
     such balance sheet was not in accordance with GAAP, GAAP shall apply), and
     including a computation in accordance with such data of the estimated Net
     Assets and Deferred Revenue of the Business as of the Closing Date (the
     "Closing Date Statement," which shall be in substantially in the form of
     Exhibit 2.6), together with the detailed work papers which support the
     Closing Date Statement. The Purchase Price shall be decreased (i) by the
     amount, if any, by which the Net Assets on the Closing Date are less than
     $3,800,000, and (ii) by the amount, if any, by which the Deferred Revenue
     on the Closing Date is greater than $7,600,000 (the "Purchase Price
     Adjustment"). If the Closing Date Statement indicates that there is a
     Purchase Price Adjustment, the Closing Cash Amount shall be adjusted by
     such amount as indicated on the Closing Date Statement.

          (b) Buyer shall have the right to review the books and records of
     Seller and the Business for a period of ninety (90) days after receiving
     the Closing Date Statement to verify and confirm the accuracy thereof. If,
     after such review, Buyer agrees with the Closing Date Statement, Buyer
     shall promptly (and in any event within ninety (90) days after receiving
     the Closing Date Statement) notify Seller of its agreement. If, after such
     review, Buyer objects to the Closing Date Statement, Buyer shall promptly
     (and in any event within ninety (90) days after receiving the Closing Date
     Statement) provide Seller with a statement indicating the basis for its
     objections and the amount of the objection, and Buyer and Seller shall meet
     and confer in an effort to resolve such disagreement in good faith.

          (c) In the event Buyer and Seller are unable to resolve a disagreement
     with respect to the Closing Date Statement within ten (10) days following
     the date of Buyer's objection (or such longer period as Buyer and Seller
     may agree), the Net Assets and Deferred Revenue shall be determined by
     Deloitte & Touche, LLP or such other independent firm of certified public
     accountants mutually agreeable to Buyer and Seller (the "Accountants").
     Buyer and Seller shall direct the Accountants to make their determination
     of the Net Assets and Deferred Revenue on or before the date that is one
     hundred and twenty (120) days after Buyer receives the Closing Date
     Statement. If issues in dispute are submitted to the Accountants for
     resolution, (i) each party shall furnish to the Accountants such work
     papers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues
     as the Accountants may request and are available to that party, and shall
     be afforded the opportunity to present to the Accountants any material
     relating to the determination and to discuss the determination with the
     Accountants; (ii) the determination by the Accountants of the Net Assets
     and Deferred Revenue as set forth in a notice delivered to both parties by
     the Accountants, will be binding and conclusive on the parties; and (iii)
     the fees and expenses of the Accountants for such determination shall be
     paid by the parties based upon the degree to which the Accountants accept
     the respective positions of the parties. For example, if it is Buyer's
     position that the adjustment owed is $300, Seller's position that the
     adjustment owed is $100 and the Accountants' finding that the adjustment
     owed is $150, then Buyer shall pay 75% (300-150/300-100) of the
     Accountants' fees and expenses and Seller shall pay 25% (150-100/300-100)
     of the Accountants' fees and expenses. Other than the expense of retaining
     the Accountants, the expense of preparing the Closing Date Statement shall
     be borne by Seller.

          (d) Buyer and Seller shall direct the Escrow Agent to immediately
     release to the Seller any amounts in the Purchase Price Adjustment Holdback
     that are not in dispute. Within three

                                       A-12


     (3) business days of the final determination of the Purchase Price
     Adjustment pursuant to either the agreement of the parties or the
     determination of the Accountants, then Buyer and Seller shall direct the
     Escrow Agent to immediately release to Buyer and/or Seller, as appropriate,
     the remaining amounts of the Purchase Price Adjustment Holdback. If such
     remaining amounts of the Purchase Price Adjustment Holdback are
     insufficient to satisfy the entire Purchase Price Adjustment, then Seller
     shall within three (3) business days of such final determination pay to
     Buyer the Purchase Price Adjustment amount not satisfied by the Purchase
     Price Adjustment Holdback by wire transfer in immediately available funds.

     2.7  Power of Attorney, etc.

          (a) Effective on the Closing Date, Seller hereby constitutes and
     appoints Buyer and its successors, legal representatives and assigns the
     true and lawful attorneys of Seller, with full power of substitution, in
     the name of Seller or Buyer, but on behalf of and for the benefit of Buyer
     and its successors, legal representatives and assigns: (i) to demand and
     receive from time to time any and all of the Purchased Assets and to make
     endorsements and give receipts and releases for and in respect of the same
     and any part thereof; (ii) to institute, prosecute, compromise and settle
     any and all proceedings at law, in equity or otherwise that Buyer and its

     the Purchased Assets; and (iii) to do all such acts and things in relation
     to the matters set forth in the preceding clauses (i) and (ii) as Buyer and
     its successors, legal representatives or assigns shall deem reasonably
     necessary. Seller hereby agrees that the appointment hereby made and the
     powers hereby granted are coupled with an interest and are and shall be
     irrevocable by it in any manner or for any reason.

          (b) After the Closing Date, Buyer shall have the right to receive and
     open all mail, packages and other communications addressed to Seller and
     relating to the Business or the Purchased Assets, and Seller agrees
     promptly to deliver to Buyer any such mail, packages or other
     communications received by Seller. Buyer shall promptly deliver to Seller
     all mail, packages and other communications received by it which relate to
     Seller but do not relate to the Purchased Assets or the Business.

     2.8  Basic Prorations; Utilities; Taxes.  On the Closing Date, or as
promptly as practicable following the Closing Date, minimum rent, percentage
rent, water, gas, electricity and other utilities, common area maintenance
reimbursements to lessors and other similar periodic charges or expenses
relating to the leased real property located at Suite 206, Building 200, 1200
Chastain Road, Kennesaw, Georgia 30144 shall be prorated with Buyer paying
Seller such prorated amount. Utility meter readings for such property shall be
determined as of the Closing Date for purposes of establishing utility costs for
the first month. All prorations shall be made on the basis of the actual number
of days in the year and month in which the Closing occurs or in the period of
computation.

     2.9  Allocation.  Promptly following the Closing, the final purchase price
allocation will be prepared by Buyer, and a draft delivered to Seller for
Seller's review and comment. Upon Seller's agreement with the allocation, which
shall not be unreasonably withheld, Buyer and Seller each agree (a) to report
the sale of the Purchased Assets for Tax purposes in accordance with the
allocations mutually agreed upon and to follow the allocations in determining
and reporting their liabilities for any Taxes, (b) without limitation, not to
take any position inconsistent with such allocations on any of its Tax Returns,
and (c) to timely file federal tax Form 8594 with the applicable Tax Return for
the year of this transaction reflecting such Purchase Price allocations.

     2.10  Taxes.

          (a) Seller and Buyer shall each report Buyer's purchase of the
     Purchased Assets pursuant to Section 1060 of the Code and other applicable
     Laws. Buyer and Seller agree to report such purchase in a manner consistent
     with the allocation of Purchase Price provided in Section 2.9 hereof.

          (b) Buyer agrees to keep and, except to the extent books and records
     have been transferred to Buyer, Seller agrees to keep, or require any
     successor to keep, all books and records required to be maintained by a
     corporation under the Laws of any applicable government for any open
     statutory

                                       A-13


     period or any assessment or reassessment period and thereafter, each party
     shall first notify the other party of its intent to destroy such books and
     records and give such other party the opportunity to take the books and
     records before they are destroyed. Each Party agrees to furnish or cause to
     be furnished to the other party, upon request, as promptly as practicable,
     such information and assistance (including access to books and records)
     relating to the Purchased Assets, as is reasonably necessary for the
     preparation of any Tax Return, claims for refund or audit or prosecution or
     defense of any claim, suit or proceeding relating to any proposed
     adjustment of Taxes paid.

Seller has the requisite power to own, operate and hold under lease the
Purchased Assets and Real Property as, and in the places where, such properties

     4.2  Authorization; Enforceability.  The execution, delivery and
performance by Seller of this Agreement and of all of the agreements, documents

connection with this Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary action
of Seller, subject to the approval on or prior to the Closing Date of the sale
of the Purchased Assets in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law
and the Seller's Certificate of Incorporation

                                       A-15


and Bylaws. This Agreement is, and the other agreements, documents and
instruments required hereby will be, when executed and delivered by the parties
hereto, subject to the approval on or prior to the Closing Date of the sale of
the Purchased Assets by Seller's stockholders in accordance with the Delaware
General Corporation Law and the Seller's Certificate of Incorporation and
Bylaws, the valid and binding obligations of Seller, enforceable against Seller
in accordance with their respective terms, except to the extent that their
enforceability may be subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting the enforcement of
creditors' rights generally and by general equitable principles.

     4.3  No Violation or Conflict by Seller.  The execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement by Seller does not and will not violate, conflict
with or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance
under any Law, judgment, order or decree binding on Seller or the Certificate of
Incorporation or the Bylaws of Seller or any contract or agreement to which
Seller, is a party or by which Seller or any of the Purchased Assets are bound,
other than Non-Assignable Contracts for which consents to transfer are not

related work papers, are complete and correct in all material respects, and
present fairly in all material respects the results of operations of the
Business for the respective periods covered thereby. The revenues shown in the
July Financial Statements are consistent with GAAP. The October Financial

another more conservative methodology, and (e) is not subject to any proposed
write-down or write-off in accordance with GAAP consistently applied with the
past practices of Seller. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.7, Seller is under
no material liability or obligation with respect to the return of any Inventory

Except as set forth on Schedule 4.7, Seller neither holds any material amounts
of Inventory on consignment, nor holds title to or ownership of any material
amounts of Inventory in the possession of others.

     4.8  No Litigation.  Except as described on Schedule 4.8, there are no
actions at law or in equity, or arbitration proceedings, or claims or
investigations related to the Business or the Purchased Assets of which Seller
has received notice, pending or, to the best of Seller's Knowledge, threatened
in writing. There are no proceedings, pending or, to Seller's Knowledge,
threatened, against Seller and related to the Business by or before any
governmental board, department, commission, bureau, instrumentality or agency,
and Seller's ownership of the Purchased Assets and operation of the Business is
not in violation of any order, decree or judgment of any court or arbitration
tribunal or governmental board, department, commission, bureau, instrumentality
or agency.

     4.9  Intellectual Property Rights.

          (a) The Included Intellectual Property encompasses all material
     proprietary rights necessary or used for the conduct of the Business as
     presently conducted. Except for the Excluded Intellectual Property and
     except as otherwise set forth on Schedule 4.9(a), each item of Included
     Intellectual Property owned or used by the Business immediately prior to
     the Closing hereunder will be owned or available for use on substantially
     the same terms and conditions immediately subsequent to the Closing
     hereunder. Seller owns, and will transfer and assign to Buyer pursuant to
     this Agreement the entire right, title and interest in and to all of the
     Included Intellectual Property, free and clear of all encumbrances. There
     are no actions pending or, to Seller's Knowledge, threatened, asserting the
     invalidity, misuse or unenforceability of any of the Included Intellectual
     Property.

          (b) Except as set forth on Schedule 4.9(b), neither the Included
     Intellectual Property nor the conduct of the Business has infringed upon or
     misappropriated any intellectual property, proprietary or other rights of
     third parties, and none of Seller or the directors or officers (or
     employees with responsibility for Intellectual Property matters) of Seller
     has ever received any written charge, complaint, claim, demand or notice
     alleging any such infringement or misappropriation (including any written
     claim that Seller must license or refrain from using any intellectual
     property rights of any third party) relating to the Included Intellectual
     Property. Seller has not agreed to indemnify any Person for or against any
     infringement or misappropriation with respect to any Included Intellectual
     Property. To the Knowledge of Seller, no third party has infringed upon or
     misappropriated any rights of Seller with respect to the Included
     Intellectual Property.

Property"), used in connection with the Business pursuant to the leases
described on Schedule 4.10. Seller has made available to Buyer true and correct
copies of the leases listed on Schedule 4.10. The leases listed on Schedule 4.10
are legal, valid, binding, enforceable and in full force and effect with respect
to the Seller and, to Seller's Knowledge, with respect to the other parties
thereto. With respect to the leases listed on Schedule 4.10, (a) Seller is not,
and to Seller's Knowledge no other party to the leases is, in material breach or
default, and, to Seller's Knowledge, no event has occurred which, with notice or
lapse of time, would constitute a material breach or default or permit
termination, material modification or acceleration thereunder; (b) Seller has
all necessary rights to conduct the Business on the Real Property leased by it,
(c) the Business enjoys peaceful and undisturbed possession thereunder, and (d)
all rents and other payments due to date under each such lease have been paid in

          (a) Seller shall promptly take all action necessary to duly call, give
     notice of and convene a meeting of its stockholders (the "Stockholder
     Meeting") (i) on or before February 28, 2003, if the Seller's proxy
     statement related to the Stockholder Meeting is not reviewed by the
     Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), with the right to adjourn such

     related to the Stockholder Meeting is reviewed by the SEC, with the right
     to hold and/or adjourn such meeting until no later than May 31, 2003, in
     order that the stockholders may consider and vote upon the adoption of this
     Agreement and the approval of the transactions contemplated hereby. Seller
     will promptly prepare and file with the SEC its preliminary proxy materials
     relating to the Stockholder Meeting, and thereafter use its reasonable best
     efforts to respond to any comments of the SEC thereon, and to make any
     further filings and take any further actions necessary to file and
     disseminate to its stockholders definitive proxy materials with respect to
     the Stockholder Meeting. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.10(b)
     below, the proxy materials will contain the affirmative recommendation of
     the Board of Directors of Seller in favor of the adoption of this Agreement
     and the approval of the transactions contemplated hereby (the "Affirmative
     Recommendation").

          (b) In the event that prior to the Stockholder Meeting the Board of
     Directors of Seller receives a Superior Proposal (as defined herein), the
     Board of Directors of Seller may (i) withdraw or modify, or propose to
     withdraw or modify, in a manner adverse to the Buyer and/or Parent its
     approval or recommendation of this Agreement or the transactions
     contemplated hereby, (ii) fail to reaffirm its approval or recommendation
     of this Agreement within the time periods required herein after a written
     request by the Buyer and/or Parent to do so, or (iii) resolve or announce
     its intention to do any of the actions set forth in the preceding clauses
     (i) or (ii), if (x) after consultation with outside counsel, such Board
     determines by a majority vote of directors in their good faith judgment
     that taking such action is necessary to comply with the fiduciary duties of
     such Board under applicable Law and (y) Seller furnishes the Buyer and
     Parent two (2) business days' prior written notice of the taking of such
     action (which notice shall include a description of the material terms and
     conditions of the Superior Proposal and identify the Person making the
     same). For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Superior Proposal" means
     any bona fide acquisition proposal to purchase the Business or all or
     substantially all of the Purchased Assets which is on terms which the Board
     of Directors of Seller determines by a majority vote of its directors in
     their good faith judgment (after consultation with its outside counsel and
     investment advisors of nationally recognized reputation), to be more
     favorable to the stockholders of Seller than the transactions contemplated

     related to the Purchased Assets or the Business, the material terms and
     conditions of such request, acquisition proposal or inquiry, and the
     identity of the Person making the same. Seller shall inform the Buyer and
     Parent on a prompt and current basis of the status, terms and content of
     any discussions regarding any acquisition proposal related to the Purchased
     Assets or the Business with a third party. Nothing contained in this

supplements or amendments to the schedules to this Agreement with respect to any
matter arising or changing which, if existing or occurring as of the date of
this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or described in such
schedules; provided, however, any such proposed supplements or amendments to the
schedules to this Agreement shall not become part of this Agreement unless and
until Buyer and Parent shall execute an instrument evidencing their agreement
thereto, and such proposals shall not be deemed a waiver by Buyer or Parent of
any representation or warranty of Seller contained in this Agreement other than
as agreed upon in such instrument.

     6.14  Additional Information.  Seller shall provide such information and in
such form as Buyer may reasonably request, and otherwise reasonably cooperate,
to permit Buyer to conduct payroll processing and transaction processing for the
Business on the Closing Date.

                          SURVIVAL AND INDEMNIFICATION

     9.1  Survival of Representations and Warranties.  Regardless of any
investigation at any time made by or on behalf of any party, or of any
information any party may have known or had reason to know at the Closing or any
other time, the representations and warranties contained herein shall survive
the Closing and shall continue in full force and effect for a period ending on
the expiration of eighteen (18) calendar months following the Closing (the
"Survival Period"), except those representations and warranties set forth in the
second sentence of Section 4.4 (but only with respect to good and valid title),
Section 4.15 and

                                       A-26


4.18, which shall survive through the applicable statute of limitations or the
applicable assessment or reassessment period, as the case may be, and except
those representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.2, which shall
survive forever. No claim for indemnification may be brought against any party
hereto with respect to any representation or warranty after the expiration of
such representation or warranty. If written notice of a claim has been given
prior to the expiration of the applicable representations and warranties by a
party in whose favor such representations and warranties have been made to the
party that made such representations and warranties, the relevant
representations and warranties shall survive as to such claim until the claim
has been finally resolved.

     9.2  Indemnification Provisions for Benefit of Buyer.  Subject to Sections
9.5 and 9.6, following the Closing, Seller shall indemnify and save and hold
Buyer and Parent harmless from and against any Adverse Consequences suffered or
incurred by Buyer or Parent arising out of or resulting from:

          (a) the inaccuracy in any representation or the breach of any warranty
     made by Seller in this Agreement (for purposes of this Article 9, Seller
     shall be deemed to have made the representations and warranties immediately
     prior to the Closing Time (other than representations and warranties which
     address matters only as of a particular date, in which case such
     representations and warranties shall be true and correct, on and as of such
     particular date));

          (b) the failure of Seller duly to perform or observe any covenant or
     agreement in this Agreement required on the part of Seller to be performed
     or observed by it prior to, at or after the Closing Date; and

          (c) the Excluded Liabilities.

     9.3  Indemnification Provisions for Benefit of Seller.  Following the
Closing, Buyer and Parent shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and save and
hold harmless Seller from and against any Adverse Consequences suffered or
incurred arising out of or resulting from:

          (a) the inaccuracy in any representation or the breach of any warranty
     made by Buyer or Parent in this Agreement (for purposes of this Article 9,
     Buyer and Parent shall be deemed to have made the representations and
     warranties immediately prior to the Closing Time (other than
     representations and warranties which address matters only as of a
     particular date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be
     true and correct, on and as of such particular date));

          (b) the failure of Buyer or Parent duly to perform or observe any
     covenant or agreement in this Agreement required on the part of Buyer or
     Parent to be performed or observed prior to, at or after the Closing Date;
     and

          (c) the Assumed Obligations.

     9.4  Conditions of Indemnification.  The respective obligations and
liabilities of Seller, Buyer and Parent (the "indemnifying party") to the other
(the "party to be indemnified") under Sections 9.1 and 9.2, respectively, hereof
with respect to claims resulting from the assertion of liability by third
parties shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

          (a) Within fifteen (15) days (or such earlier time as might be
     required to avoid prejudicing the indemnifying party's position) after
     receipt of notice of commencement of any action evidenced by service of
     process or other legal pleading, or with reasonable promptness after the
     assertion in writing of any claim by a third party, the party to be
     indemnified shall give the indemnifying party written notice thereof
     together with a copy of such claim, process or other legal pleading;
     provided, however, that the failure to give notice shall not affect the
     right of the indemnified party to indemnification hereunder except to the
     extent that such failure prejudices the ability of the indemnifying party
     to defend any claim. The indemnifying party shall have the right to
     undertake the defense thereof by representatives of its own choosing and at
     its own expense; provided, however, that the party to be indemnified may
     participate in the defense with counsel of its own choice and at its own
     expense.

          (b) In the event that the indemnifying party, by the thirtieth (30th)
     day after receipt of notice of any such claim (or, if earlier, by the tenth
     (10th) day preceding the day on which an answer or other pleading must be
     served in order to prevent judgment by default in favor of the Person
     asserting

                                       A-27


     such claim), does not elect to defend against such claim, the party to be
     indemnified will (upon further notice to the indemnifying party) have the
     right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such claim on
     behalf of and for the account and risk of the indemnifying party and at the
     indemnifying party's expense, subject to the right of the indemnifying
     party to assume the defense of such claims at any time prior to settlement,
     compromise or final determination thereof.

          (c) Anything in this Section 9.4 to the contrary notwithstanding, the
     indemnifying party shall not settle any claim without the consent of the
     party to be indemnified unless such settlement involves only the payment of
     money and the claimant provides to the party to be indemnified a release
     from all liability in respect of such claim. If the settlement of the claim
     involves more than the payment of money, the indemnifying party shall not
     settle the claim without the prior consent of the party to be indemnified,
     such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

          (d) The party to be indemnified and the indemnifying party will each
     cooperate with all reasonable requests of the other.

     9.5  Exclusive Remedy.  After the Closing occurs, this Article 9, including
the limitations set forth in Sections 9.5 and 9.6, shall provide the sole and
exclusive remedy for any and all Adverse Consequences sustained or incurred by a
party hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement,
absent fraud on the part of the party or parties against whom damages are
sought.

     9.6  Indemnification Basket and Cap.

          (a) Any right of a party to indemnification under Section 9.2(a) or
     Section 9.3(a) of this Agreement shall not apply to any claim (other than
     claims, if any, arising under the second sentence of Section 4.4 (but only
     with respect to good and valid title), Section 4.15 and Section 4.18) until
     the aggregate of all such claims totals $150,000 (the "Basket"), in which
     event such indemnity shall apply to all such claims. For purposes of this
     Article 9, wherever a representation or warranty is qualified by the use of
     the word "material," such representation or warranty shall not be deemed to
     be breached or inaccurate unless the Adverse Consequences resulting from
     such breach or inaccuracy exceed $15,000.

          (b) In no event shall the total liability of (i) Seller, for all
     claims hereunder exceed the Purchase Price (the "Seller's Cap"); provided,
     however, the limitations contemplated by Seller's Cap shall not apply (A)
     in the event of fraud by Seller, (B) in the event of a breach of a covenant
     contained in this Agreement by Seller, (C) to Adverse Consequences suffered
     by Buyer and/or Parent from the Excluded Liabilities, or (D) to Adverse
     Consequences suffered by Buyer and/or Parent from a breach of the
     representations contained in the second sentence of Section 4.4 (but only
     with respect to good and valid title), Section 4.15 or Section 4.18, and
     (ii) Buyer and Parent, for all claims hereunder exceed the Purchase Price
     (the "Buyer's Cap"); provided, however, the limitations contemplated by
     Buyer's Cap shall not apply (A) in the event of fraud by Buyer, (B) in the
     event of a breach of a covenant contained in this Agreement by Buyer or
     Parent, or (C) to Adverse Consequences suffered by Seller from the Assumed
     Obligations.

     9.7  Indemnity Holdback.

          (a) Release of Holdback Amount to the Buyer.  The deposit of the
     Indemnity Holdback is made to facilitate payments to the Buyer on account
     of the indemnification obligations of the Seller pursuant to Section 9.2
     hereof. If, from time to time and at any time on or after the Closing Date,
     the Buyer notifies the Escrow Agent and the Seller in writing (the "Buyer's
     Notice") that an event or circumstance has occurred that could reasonably
     be expected to result in Adverse Consequences or that the Buyer has
     received notice from a third party of a claim which could reasonably be
     expected to result in Adverse Consequences for which the Seller has
     provided indemnification to the Buyer hereunder, and, in each case, that
     the Buyer intends to pay all or any portion of any such Adverse
     Consequences, or that Buyer has otherwise incurred Adverse Consequences for
     which the Seller has provided indemnification to the Buyer hereunder, the
     Escrow Agent shall administer such claim in the manner provided in the
     Escrow Agreement.

                                       A-28


          (b)  Return of Holdback Amount to Seller.  On the 20th day after the
     expiration of the Survival Period, the Escrow Agent shall disburse to
     Seller any amount remaining in the Indemnity Holdback (including accrued
     and undistributed interest thereon), after giving effect to any offsets for
     payments pursuant to Section 9.7(a). The right to return of any Indemnity
     Holdback shall be subordinate and junior to the rights of the Buyer thereto
     pursuant to Section 9.7(a), and if the Buyer's Notice has been given, the
     Buyer shall have the right to have such claim resolved prior to
     distribution of such amount to the Seller.

                                   ARTICLE 10

                                   PERSONNEL

     10.1  Buyer Employees.  Buyer shall make offers of employment to Seller's
employees of the Business listed on Schedule 10.1, other than those employees
who are on long-term disability leave, extended absence or receiving benefits
pursuant to workers' compensation legislation (the "Buyer Employees"). In such
connection, immediately prior to Closing, Seller shall terminate the employment
of all of Buyer Employees as of the Closing Date and Seller shall pay all
obligations with respect to such Buyer Employees and fulfill all obligations and
applicable Employee Benefit Plans (including wages and commissions, severance,
obligations with respect to termination notice provisions and other benefits) in
respect of periods prior to the Closing. If requested by Seller, Buyer will
communicate its offer to hire Buyer Employees in conjunction with the
termination by Seller of Buyer Employees.

     10.2  Terms of Employment.  Buyer's employment of Buyer Employees shall be
on terms and conditions comparable in the aggregate to similarly situated
employees of Buyer, pursuant to Buyer's benefit plans and severance pay existing
on the Closing Date, it being agreed and fully understood that (a) Buyer shall
not have any obligation to provide to Buyer Employees any term, condition or
benefit of employment that is the same as or similar to those provided by Seller
to Buyer Employees prior to the Closing, including, but not limited to, those
relating to commissions, bonus, profit sharing or other additional compensation,
sick pay, severance pay, personal time or pay or pensions, (b) Seller shall not
pay any accrued vacation to Buyer Employees and that Buyer Employees shall be
permitted to carry over accrued vacation set forth on the Closing Date Statement
(as finalized) for use, not pay, while employed by Buyer, and (c) the base
salaries of Buyer Employees shall not be reduced upon their employment by Buyer.
No provision of this Agreement shall create any third party beneficiary rights
in any Buyer Employees or any beneficiary or dependent thereof with respect to
the compensation, terms and conditions of employment and benefits that may be
provided to any Buyer Employee. On the Closing Date, each of the Buyer Employees
set forth on Schedule 10.1 who accept Buyer's offer of employment shall enter
into agreements which are customarily entered into by employees of Buyer. Buyer
may, at its option, hire the Buyer Employees on an at-will employment basis and
shall have no obligation to employ such persons for a certain length of time.
Buyer shall have no obligation or liability for any Buyer Employee who does not
accept employment with Buyer.

     10.3  Certain Benefits.  Buyer and/or Parent, as applicable, will cause its
401(k)/profit sharing plan to accept, after the Closing Date, the rollover of
amounts distributed by Seller to any Buyer Employee who accepts employment with
Buyer from any Seller 401(k)/profit sharing plan.

the other hand, shall share equally and pay all applicable sales, transfer,
documentary, use and filing fees and taxes that may become due or payable as a
result of the sale, conveyance, assignment, transfer or delivery of any of the
Purchased Assets; but neither Buyer nor Parent shall be liable for any federal
or state tax on any gain recognized by Seller on the sale of the Purchased
Assets.

     11.2  Brokers.  Except for Raymond James & Associates, Inc., which has
acted as financial adviser to Seller in connection with the transactions
contemplated in this Agreement, Seller, Buyer and Parent

                                       A-29


represent to each other that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
have been negotiated directly between them and their respective counsels,
without intervention of any Person as a result of any action by them in such a
manner as to give rise to a valid claim against any of them for a brokerage
commission, finder's fee, counseling or advisory fee, or like payment, and each
agrees to indemnify the opposite party against any such liability arising from
or through it. Seller agrees to be responsible for and indemnify Buyer and
Parent against any fees owed to Raymond James & Associates, Inc. by Seller in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     11.3  Books and Records; Personnel.  For a period of three (3) years from

     least ten (10) days prior to the proposed date of such disposition or
     destruction.

          (b) Buyer and Parent shall allow Seller and its agents access to all
     records, returns, work papers and other documents for the Purchased Assets

     working hours at Buyer's or Parent's, as applicable, principal place of
     business or at any location where such records are stored, and Seller shall
     have the right to make copies of any such records and files, all of the
     foregoing being at Seller's expense.

          (c) Buyer, Parent and Seller shall make available to each other for
     reasonable periods of time Buyer's, Parent's or Seller's personnel to
     assist Seller, Buyer or Parent in locating and obtaining records and files
     maintained by Buyer, Parent or Seller and any of Buyer's, Parent's or
     Seller's personnel whose assistance or participation is reasonably required
     by Seller, Buyer or Parent, in anticipation of, preparation for, or the
     conduct of any existing or future litigation, tax returns or other matters,
     in which Seller, Buyer or Parent is involved in connection with the
     Purchased Assets or the transactions contemplated herein.

     11.4  Non-Compete Covenant.  From the Closing Date until the fourth
anniversary thereof,

          (a) Seller shall not either directly or indirectly without the prior
     written consent of Buyer, (i) engage in; (ii) own or control any interest

     provided, however, Buyer and Parent acknowledge that (A) Seller's
     enterprise network management and scheduling software business, as it is
     presently conducted, does not compete with the Business, (B) the bundling
     and sale of Seller's enterprise network management and scheduling software
     with appropriate hardware does not compete with the Business, and (C)
     Seller's patent and intellectual property licensing business, as it is
     presently conducted, does not compete with the Business;

          (b) Buyer shall not either directly or indirectly without the prior
     written consent of Seller, (i) engage in; (ii) own or control any interest
     in (except as a passive investor of less than two percent (2%) of the

          (a) After the Closing Date, Seller shall not at any time disclose to
     any Person other than Buyer or Parent or use any of the Included
     Intellectual Property, whether or not such information is embodied in
     writing or other physical form. Seller recognizes and agrees that all
     documents and objects containing any Included Intellectual Property,
     whether developed by Seller or by someone else for Seller (except those
     that are licensed to Seller), will after the Closing Date become the
     exclusive property of Buyer.

          (b) The preceding obligations in this Section 11.5 to maintain
     information in confidence shall not apply to the extent that (i) the
     information is or becomes in the future public knowledge through no fault
     or omission of Seller, its representatives or affiliates, (ii) the
     information is lawfully revealed to Seller by a third party having the
     right to disclose it and license its use, or (iii) the information is
     required to be disclosed by Law, if Buyer has been given notice of such
     disclosure requirement and has had an opportunity to seek judicial relief
     or protection with respect to such disclosure.

     11.6  Non-Solicitation of Employees and Agents.  Except as provided under
Article 10 hereof, from the Closing Date until the first anniversary thereof,
neither party nor any of their respective affiliates will (i) encourage,
solicit, induce, or attempt to encourage, solicit or induce any employee or any
independent contractor, agent or representative of the other party to leave
his/her employment (or terminate his/her relationship or devote less than full
time efforts) with the other party for any reason, (ii) hire or attempt to hire,
for any position with any other business, any person who is an employee,
contractor, agent or representative with the other party at such time or who has
been an employee, contractor, agent or representative in connection with the
other party's business at any time within six months preceding such time, except
that this provision shall not apply to Buyer's hiring of the Buyer Employees as
contemplated by Article 10 hereof, or (iii) employ or attempt to employ any of
the (A) Buyer Employees, in the case of the Seller, whether or not such Buyer
Employees accept employment with Buyer or (B) employees of Seller not employed
in the Business, in the case of the Buyer, for any position with any business.

     11.7  Reasonableness of Restrictions.  Each of Seller, Buyer and Parent
recognizes that the limitations set forth in Sections 11.4, 11.5 and 11.6 are
reasonable, not burdensome and are properly required by Law for the adequate
protection of Seller, Buyer and Parent, and in the event that such limitations
are deemed to be unreasonable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then Seller,
Buyer and Parent agree to submit to a modification or reduction of such
limitations as such court shall deem reasonable.

     11.8  Injunctive Relief.  Each party acknowledges that its expertise in
their respective businesses is of a special, unique, unusual, extraordinary and
intellectual character, which gives such expertise a peculiar value, and that a
breach by the other party of the covenants contained in Sections 11.4 through
11.6 cannot be reasonably or adequately compensated in damages and that such
breach will cause the other party irreparable injury and damage. Each party
further acknowledges that it possesses unique skills, knowledge and ability and
that competition in violation of the provisions of Sections 11.4 through 11.6
would be extremely detrimental to the other party. By reason thereof, each of
Seller and Buyer agrees that the other shall be entitled, in addition to any
other remedies it may have under this Agreement or otherwise, to temporary,
preliminary and/or permanent injunctive and other equitable relief to prevent or
curtail any breach of the provisions of Sections 11.4, 11.5 and 11.6 of this
Agreement, without proof of

                                       A-31


actual damages that have been or may be caused to such party by such breach or
threatened breach, and waives to the fullest extent permitted by law the posting
or securing of any bond by the other party in connection with such remedies.

     11.9  Certain Leases.  Seller shall be responsible for all regular
payments, including lease payments and buyout payments, whether prior to or
after the Closing Date, related to any computers or equipment set forth on
Schedule 2.1(a-1), in accordance with their terms, that are necessary to deliver
to Buyer all such personal property, free and clear of any liens, claims or
encumbrances. Seller shall not be required to make any extraordinary payments or
any payments related to damage of the equipment by Buyer.

                                  TERMINATION

     12.1  Termination.  Time is of the essence of this Agreement. This
Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated hereby may be
abandoned as follows:

          (a) at any time prior to the Closing by mutual written agreement of
     Seller, Buyer and Parent; or

          (b) by Buyer and Parent, if neither Buyer nor Parent is in material
     breach of their obligations under this Agreement, and if (i) at any time
     that any of the representations and warranties of Seller herein become
     untrue or inaccurate such that Section 7.3 would not be satisfied (treating
     such time as if it were the Closing Time for purposes of this Section
     12.1(b)) or (ii) there has been a breach on the part of Seller of any of
     its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement such that Section
     7.1 would not be satisfied (treating such time as if it were the Closing
     Time for purposes of this Section 12.1(b)), and, in both case (i) and case
     (ii), such breach (if curable) has not been cured within thirty (30) days
     after notice to Seller; or

          (c) by Seller, if it is not in material breach of its obligations
     under this Agreement, and if (i) at any time that any of the
     representations and warranties of Buyer or Parent become untrue or
     inaccurate such that Section 8.3 would not be satisfied (treating such time
     as if it were the Closing Time for purposes of this Section 12.1(c)) or
     (ii) there has been a breach on the part of Buyer or Parent of any of their
     covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement such that Section 8.1
     would not be satisfied (treating such time as if it were the Effective Time
     for purposes of this Section 12.1(c)), and such breach (if curable) has not
     been cured within thirty (30) days after notice to Buyer and/or Parent, as
     applicable; or

          (d) by Seller or by Buyer and Parent on or after (i) if the Seller's
     proxy statement related to the Stockholder Meeting is not reviewed by the
     SEC, March 31, 2003, if by that date the Closing has not taken place or
     (ii) if the Seller's proxy statement related to the Stockholder Meeting is
     reviewed by the SEC, May 31, 2003, if by that date the Closing has taken
     place (provided, however, no party shall be entitled to terminate this
     Agreement pursuant to this clause (d) if such party is in material breach
     of this Agreement at such time); or

          (e) by any party if any court of competent jurisdiction in the United
     States or other governmental body of the United States shall have issued an
     order, decree, or ruling or taken other action restraining, enjoining or
     otherwise prohibiting the purchase and sale of the Purchased Assets
     contemplated hereby; or

          (f) by any party if the stockholders of Seller shall not have approved
     the sale of the Purchased Assets in accordance with Seller's Certificate of
     Incorporation and Bylaws, the Exchange Act and Delaware General Corporation
     Law at the Stockholder Meeting (including any adjournment or postponement
     thereof); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement
     under this clause (f) shall not be available to Seller where the failure to
     obtain Seller stockholder approval shall have been caused by the action or
     failure to act with respect to the Stockholder Meeting and the Affirmative
     Recommendation as required under this Agreement; or

                                       A-32


          (g) by Buyer and Parent, at any time prior to the adoption and
     approval of this Agreement and by the required vote of the stockholders of
     Seller, if a Triggering Event (as defined in Section 12.4 below) with
     respect to the Business shall have occurred.

     12.2  Rights on Termination; Waiver.  If this Agreement is terminated
pursuant to Section 12.1, all further obligations of the parties under or
pursuant to this Agreement shall terminate without further liability of any
party to the other parties, except for the obligations under Section 6.6, this
Article 12 and Section 13.2; provided, however, that termination pursuant to
clauses (b) or (c) of Section 12.1 shall not relieve any defaulting or breaching
party from liability to the other parties hereto. Upon any termination of this
Agreement, each party will return all documents, work papers and other material
(including all copies thereof) of the other parties hereto relating to the
transactions contemplated hereby.

     12.3  Termination Fee.  If (a) Buyer and Parent shall terminate this
Agreement pursuant to Section 12.1(g), or (b) (i) at any time after the date of
this Agreement and before Buyer and/or Parent shall have terminated this
Agreement an acquisition proposal to acquire all or substantially all of the
Business or the Purchased Assets shall have been publicly announced or otherwise
communicated to the Board of Directors and stockholders of Seller and not
withdrawn prior to the Stockholder Meeting having occurred, and (ii) within
twelve (12) months after the earlier of Buyer and/or Parent having terminated
this Agreement or this Agreement having terminated pursuant to its own terms
Seller enters into a definitive agreement with respect to, or consummates, any
acquisition proposal to acquire all or substantially all of the Business or the
Purchased Assets, then Seller shall promptly, but in no event later than two (2)
business days after consummation of such acquisition proposal, pay Buyer an
amount equal to $500,000 by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

     12.4  Definitions.  For the purposes of this Article 12, the "Triggering
Event" shall mean the occurrence of any of the following with respect to Seller:
(a) its Board of Directors or any committee thereof shall for any reason have
withdrawn or shall have amended or modified in a manner adverse to Buyer and
Parent its Affirmative Recommendation, (b) it shall have failed to include the
Affirmative Recommendation in any of its proxy materials with respect to the
Stockholder Meeting, (c) its Board of Directors fails to reaffirm (publicly, if
so requested) the Affirmative Recommendation within ten (10) calendar days after
Buyer or Parent requests in writing that such recommendation be reaffirmed, or
(d) its Board of Directors or any committee thereof shall have approved or
recommended any proposal with respect to any transaction or series of related
transactions in which any party other than Buyer and Parent shall be entitled to
purchase any substantial portion of the Business or the Purchased Assets,
whether by asset sale, sale of stock or other securities, spin-off,
contribution, merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization,
liquidation or otherwise.

                                   ARTICLE 13

December 19, 2002


Board of Directors
Forgent Networks, Inc.
108 Wild Basin Road
Austin, TX 78747

Members of the Board:


     You have requested our opinion as to the fairness, from a financial point
of view of the consideration to be received by Forgent Networks, Inc. (the
"Company") in connection with the proposed sale (the "Sale") of the Services
Division of Forgent Networks, Inc. (the "Services Division") to Gores Technology
Group ("Gores") pursuant and subject to the draft of the Asset Purchase
Agreement between the Company and Gores Technology Group reviewed by us on
December 19, 2002 (the "Agreement"). The consideration to be offered by Gores to
the Company in exchange for the Services Division will be $10,000,000 cash plus
assumption of approximately $11,200,000 in liabilities, subject to certain
escrows for adjustments and indemnity claims contemplated in the Agreement.


     In connection with our review of the Sale of the Services Division and the
preparation of our opinion herein, we have, among other things:


          1. Reviewed the financial terms and conditions as stated in the draft
     of the Agreement and the terms made available to us on the date hereof;



          2. Reviewed the unaudited financial statements of the Services
     Division as of and for the years ended July 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 and for
     the quarter ended October 31, 2002;



          3. Reviewed the financial projections for the Services Division
     prepared by the Company for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2003 and
     the fiscal years ended July 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005;



          4. Reviewed the Company's Annual and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-K
     and 10-Q for the fiscal years ended July 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000;



          5. Reviewed certain other information on the Services Division made
     available to us by the Company;



          6. Discussed with members of the senior management of the Company and
     the Services Division certain information relating to the aforementioned
     and any other matters which we have deemed relevant to our inquiry;



          7. Reviewed selected publicly available information concerning
     companies in businesses considered by Raymond James to be most comparable
     to the Services Division;



          8. Reviewed financial information and other information concerning
     selected completed business combinations deemed to be generally comparable
     to the Sale or otherwise relevant to this opinion, in whole or in part; and



          9. Performed other such financial analyses that we deemed appropriate.



     We have assumed and relied upon the accuracy and completeness of all
information supplied or otherwise made available to us by the Company, or any
other party, and we have undertaken no duty or responsibility to verify
independently any of such information. We have not made or obtained an
independent appraisal of the assets or liabilities (contingent or otherwise) of
the Services Division. With respect to financial forecasts and other information
and data provided to or otherwise reviewed by or discussed with us, we have
assumed that such forecasts and other information and data have been reasonably
prepared in good faith on bases reflecting the best currently available
estimates and judgments of management, and we have relied upon each party to
advise us promptly if any information previously provided became inaccurate or
was required to be updated during the period of our review. We have also


                                       B-1



assumed that the sale will be consummated substantially in accordance with the
terms of the draft Agreement and the terms made available to us on the date
hereof.



     Our opinion is based upon market, economic, financial and other
circumstances and conditions existing and disclosed to us as of December 19,
2002 and any material change in such circumstances and conditions would require
a reevaluation of this opinion, which we are under no obligation to undertake.


     We express no opinion as to the underlying business decision to affect the
Sale, the structure or tax consequences of the Agreement or the availability or
advisability of any alternatives to the Sale of the Services Division. We did
not structure the Sale or negotiate the final terms of the Sale. Our opinion is
limited to the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the consideration to
be paid to the Company in connection with the Sale. We express no opinion with
respect to any other reasons, legal, business, or otherwise, that may support
the decision of the Board of Directors to approve or consummate the Sale. We
express no opinion as to the trading price of the common stock of Forgent
Networks, Inc.

     In conducting our investigation and analyses and in arriving at our opinion
expressed herein, we have taken into account such accepted financial and
investment banking procedures and considerations as we have deemed relevant,
including the review of (i) historical and projected revenues, operating
earnings, net income and capitalization of the Services Division and certain
other publicly held companies in businesses we believe to be comparable to the
Services Division; (ii) the current and projected financial position and results
of operations of the Services Division; (iii) financial and operating
information concerning selected business combinations which we deemed comparable
in whole or in part; and (iv) the general condition of the securities markets.
In arriving at this opinion, Raymond James did not attribute any particular
weight to any analysis or factor considered by it, but rather made qualitative
judgments as to the significance and relevance of each analysis and factor.
Accordingly, Raymond James believes that its analyses must be considered as a
whole and that selecting portions of its analyses, without considering all
analyses, would create an incomplete view of the process underlying this
opinion.

     Raymond James & Associates, Inc. ("Raymond James") is actively engaged in
the investment banking business and regularly undertakes the valuation of
investment securities in connection with public offerings, private placements,
business combinations and similar transactions. Raymond James has been engaged
to render financial advisory services to the Company in connection with the
proposed Sale and will receive a fee for such services, which fee is contingent
upon consummation of the Sale. Raymond James will also receive a fee upon the
delivery of this opinion. In addition, the Company has agreed to indemnify us
against certain liabilities arising out of our engagement.

     In the ordinary course of our business, Raymond James may trade in the
securities of the Company for our own account or for the accounts of our
customers and, accordingly, may at any time hold a long or short position in
such securities.

     It is understood that this letter is for the information of the Board of
Directors of the Company in evaluating the Sale and does not constitute a
recommendation to any director or shareholder of the Company regarding how said
director or shareholder should vote on the Sale. Furthermore, this letter should
not be construed as creating any fiduciary duty on the part of Raymond James to
any such party. This opinion is not to be quoted or referred to, in whole or in
part, without our prior written consent, which will not be unreasonably
withheld.

                                       B-2



     Based upon and subject to the foregoing, it is our opinion that, as of
December 19, 2002, the consideration to be received by the Company pursuant to
the Agreement is fair, from a financial point of view, to the holders of the
Company's outstanding Common Stock. This letter was prepared and delivered on
April 9, 2003 to confirm the oral opinion we provided to the Company on December
19, 2002.


                                          Very truly yours,

                                          /s/RAYMOND JAMES & ASSOCIATES, INC.
