COMPANY OVERVIEW Critical Path is a leading global provider of Internet messaging infrastructure products and services for corporate enterprises and service providers around the world. Our Internet messaging infrastructure, which includes messaging, directory and security products and services, allows our customers to benefit from the rapidly increasing number of messaging applications that are driving the complexity and scale of messaging. Our integrated portfolio of messaging services enables our customers to provide messaging solutions to their customers and employees via desktop, wireline or wireless medium. As messaging becomes increasingly directory-centric, Critical Path's mission-critical directory products provide unified identity and security management across our customers' new and existing messaging and eBusiness initiatives. We believe our Internet messaging infrastructure products and services position us to serve our customers with highly scalable, mission critical messaging, directory and security. Our Internet messaging infrastructure integrates a rich selection of messaging products and services, including email messaging, wireless messaging and secure file delivery services, calendaring, and directory and meta-directory components providing a framework for unified user profile management and secure access control. We offer our messaging solutions through both outsourced services, where we host the software on our servers, and insourced server software packages, where the customer licenses software to run on its own servers. In addition, a customer may choose to midsource, a combination of outsourced and insourced solutions. We believe our combination of outsourcing, midsourcing and insourcing options provides our customers with continuity of relationship and technology across a variety of offerings and user populations. We provide products and services, both on a licensed and hosted basis, to customers located around the world. We have offices, operations and customers in North America, Europe, Latin America and Asia. Examples of customers across our major target markets include: CORPORATE ENTERPRISES: AFLAC, Bechtel, BNP Paribas SA, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Circuit City, EDS, Federal Express, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Promus Hotel Corporation, and Texas Instruments. WIRELESS AND TELECOMMUNICATIONS PROVIDERS: Aether Systems, British Telecom, Comverse Technology, Corio, Debitel, France Telecom, Global Crossings, i3 Mobile, Liberty Surf, Logica, MCI WorldCom, Motient, OmniSky, Omnitel, SK Telecom, Tiscali, and Verizon. 3 4 INTERNET-CENTRIC COMPANIES: Amazon.com, eBay, E*TRADE, ICQ, Intuit, Netian, Network Solutions (VeriSign), Yahoo!, and ZipNet. POSTAL AUTHORITIES: AnPost, Deutsche Post, Dutch Post, Finland Post, La Poste, Posta Hungary, PosteCom Italia, Royal Mail ViaCode, and Swedish Post. We have a number of distribution channel relationships with companies, including British Telecom, Bull and MCI WorldCom. Our directory services are leveraged through partnerships with the leading Internet security and access management vendors including Entrust and Verisign. In June 2000, we formed a joint venture, Critical Path Pacific, with Mitsui, NTT Communications, and NEC to serve the Japanese and other Asian markets. As a result of our global focus, more than 38% of our revenue in 2000 came from outside the United States. We believe email is pervasive as a communications tool and is shifting from being simply an application to a delivery platform, or infrastructure, for mission-critical messaging and transactions. As message volumes, complexity and security requirements of transactions increase, and as mobile users demand access and seamless identity management across laptops, cell phones, hand held devices and pagers, corporations struggle to keep pace with the rapid rate of change with a scarcity of skilled technology resources. Service providers also serve increasingly mobile customers and seek to grow their business models beyond basic connectivity and email with value-added services and commerce opportunities. Anticipating these trends, we have expanded our range of products and services and the delivery options we offer domestic and international customers. Our Internet messaging infrastructure delivers carrier-class standards-based messaging with rich extensions for wireless device support, collaborative applications and secure delivery. Additionally, through the acquisitions of ISOCOR and PeerLogic, we built and solidified our position as a leading directory services provider, able to help our customers unify identity management and security access across multiple platforms, devices, and enterprises. Carrier-class reliability, scalability and security are fundamental as global organizations move an increasing percentage of business communications and transactions to the standards-based Internet. Our messaging infrastructure is designed to support the scalability and performance demands of hundreds of millions of mailboxes, transactions and users with the "uptime" and reliability metrics required for mission-critical eBusiness. We currently are servicing widespread, global organizations with the most demanding messaging needs. Many companies attempting to manage expanding and increasingly sophisticated messaging systems lack the resources and expertise to cost-effectively implement, maintain, scale, enhance and service the hardware and software components of their messaging infrastructure. Our flexible deployment or "allsourcing" strategy provides flexibility and value to our customers by giving them the option of using our hosted services, licensing our software to run on their own hardware, or selecting a combination of both. Our product and service solutions enable customers to improve messaging performance, ensure security and reliability in their messaging, reduce the cost of providing messaging services and focus on other aspects of their businesses. As the Internet continues to grow and profoundly change the way people conduct business and communicate, we believe we are positioned to participate in and benefit from the rapidly evolving communications and messaging environment. We believe our category leadership, mega-scale technology, proven customer benefits, flexible deployment, strategic partnerships and strong customer relationships provide us with our competitive edge. We were incorporated as a California corporation in 1997. Our principal executive offices are located at 532 Folsom Street, San Francisco, California 94105. Our telephone number is (415) 808-8800 and our web site is located at www.cp.net. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS Restatement and Revision of Unaudited Financial Results and Litigation. On February 2, 2001, we issued a press release announcing that we believed that our previously announced unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter of 2000 may have been materially misstated, the Board of Directors had formed a 4 5 special committee to conduct an investigation into the matter, and our president and vice president of worldwide sales had been placed on administrative leave related to the matter. On February 15, 2001, we announced that, based on the preliminary results of the investigation being conducted, we would revise our previously announced unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter of 2000 and were reviewing certain specific transactions that were reported as revenue during the third quarter of 2000. During February and March 2001, the investigation by the special committee of the Board of Directors was completed, we completed our internal review, and our auditors completed the annual audit. Beginning on February 2, 2001, a number of securities class action complaints were filed against us, certain of our current and former officers and directors, and our independent accountants, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. Additionally, beginning on February 5, 2001, we were named as a nominal defendant in a number of derivative actions, purportedly brought on our behalf, filed in the Superior Court of the State of California. In February 2001, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued a formal order of investigation of our company and certain unidentified individuals associated with us with respect to non-specified accounting matters, financial reports, other public disclosures and trading activity in our securities. While we do not know the current status of the investigation or any possible actions that may be taken against us as a result, any SEC action against us could harm our business. Shareholder Rights Plan. In March 2001, the Board of Directors adopted a Shareholder Rights Plan. Under this plan, certain Rights will be distributed as a dividend at the rate of one Right for each share of Critical Path common stock held by shareholders of record as of the close of business on May 15, 2001. The Rights Plan is designed to prevent an acquirer from gaining control of Critical Path without offering a fair and adequate price and terms to all of our shareholders. The Rights Plan is intended to increase our ability to negotiate with potential acquiring companies to maximize shareholder value and is not intended to interfere with takeover offers or other strategic alternatives that our Board of Directors believes are in the best interests of our shareholders. The Rights Plan was not adopted in response to any attempt to acquire the Company. CP Italia. In March 2001, we purchased the outstanding 27.13% minority interest in CP Italia for approximately $4.2 million and CP Italia became a wholly owned subsidiary of Critical Path. At December 31, 2000, we owned a 72.87% interest in CP Italia. Management Changes. In February 2001, we announced a series of changes in Critical Path management. David Hayden, our Chairman and a founder, was appointed Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors and was asked to take a greater role in the day-to-day operations of the company. A search for a new Chief Executive Officer currently is ongoing, following the resignation of Doug Hickey. Diana Whitehead, formerly our Vice President of Engineering and Operations, was promoted to President, following David Thatcher's resignation from Critical Path. Additionally, Mari Tangredi, formerly our Vice President of Corporate Development, was named Executive Vice President of Business Development, Sales and Professional Services following William Rinehart's resignation from Critical Path. Amended Articles of Incorporation. In January 2001, we amended our Articles of Incorporation to increase our authorized shares of common stock from 150 million to 500 million shares. This increase had been previously approved by our shareholders at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on June 13, 2000. THE CRITICAL PATH SOLUTION We deliver Internet messaging infrastructure products and services to corporate enterprises, wireless and telecommunications providers, Internet-centric companies and postal authorities. Our technology gives our customers the ability to better utilize their physical, human and information assets, by providing feature-rich email, messaging, directory and security solutions to their customers, partners and employees. 5 6 Our products and services are designed to provide a superior return on our customers' technology budgets through the following key benefits: Flexibility and Depth of Offerings. Our customers benefit from Critical Path's depth of expertise in many areas of Internet messaging infrastructure, including messaging, directory and security services. Critical Path delivers access to an entire suite of solutions, leveraged across an integrated platform. Our customers can deploy Critical Path's products and services regardless of whether they choose to outsource their messaging needs to us or license our software to manage their messaging needs internally or a combination of both. Broad, Standards-based Infrastructure. Our messaging infrastructure supports industry standards at the messaging, directory and security services levels. This standards-based approach allows our customers ease of integration as they deploy Critical Path's solutions around their existing environments, as well as the ability to augment and change their use of our solutions with future developments in their wireless strategies, all within one centrally managed and administered infrastructure. Anytime, Anywhere Accessibility. Critical Path's services are designed to allow administrators and end users to access their email system at any time anywhere and provide end users with the means to send and receive messages to and from cellular phones, personal digital assistants, pagers and other wireless devices. Critical Path's services are compatible with leading desktop software, and we have developed a web-based email interface that is compatible with leading web browsers. Carrier-Class Scalability, Reliability and Security. As messaging evolves from email as an application to messaging infrastructure that supports multi-faceted communications and business transactions, we have designed our hosted and licensed systems for high levels of scalability, reliability and security. Critical Path has designed its hosted architecture to support its service over hundreds of millions of mailboxes across millions of domains. Our hardware and software infrastructure consists of multiple servers running software in a manner that balances the use of the servers and eliminates single points of failure by not dedicating any server or hardware or network component to a specific domain or mailbox. This infrastructure allows multiple domain hosting while reducing the amount of required equipment and capacity. The scalability of our directory and meta-directory capabilities enables us to provide identity management and access security to many of the world's largest corporations for intranet and extranet user populations, and many of the world's largest service providers, including postal authorities servicing entire countries of users. Our high performance standards-based directory is used to house digital certificates in some of the world's largest public key infrastructure installations where sub-second response times across thousands of simultaneous queries are demanded. Our design methodology reduces the number of computer instructions required to perform common operations, which in turn reduces the risk that messages will be lost or will not be duplicated in the event of external system breakdowns such as loss of power or hardware failures. This promotes high reliability of the electronic information exchange. In addition, we have network and data center surveillance 24 hours a day, seven days a week to identify and curtail potential service issues or security breaches. Critical Path currently maintains six data centers in the United States, two data centers in Europe and one in Asia. Lower Total Cost of Ownership. Customers can reduce the total cost of ownership of their messaging infrastructures through the ability of our products and services to interoperate with changing standards and scale with our customers regardless of how they plan to deploy our product and service solutions. By using our hosted and outsourced solutions, our customers can avoid the need to lease, buy or continually upgrade existing hardware and software, or recruit and retain systems engineers and administrative personnel for their messaging services. Our service is designed to reduce customers' administrative burden by eliminating the cycle of purchasing, installing, testing, debugging and deploying messaging systems. Allsourcing. We provide customers with great flexibility to solve their messaging, directory and security infrastructure challenges through our "allsourcing" strategy, allowing customers access to 6 7 outsource, midsource or insource solutions. Our outsourced messaging solutions eliminate the need for customers and partners to maintain a core competency in advanced messaging. Midsourcing and insourcing allow our customers to choose among the best of Critical Path's offerings, while taking advantage of their own internal capabilities where appropriate, to maximize their technology budgets. Branding and Customer Control. Critical Path's messaging service solution enables our customers to maintain brand control by allowing graphical user interfaces to be branded uniquely for each customer. Critical Path's fully customized web-based "brandable" email product interface enables our customers to present their messaging solutions in their own brand image. PRODUCTS AND SERVICES Messaging Solutions. Critical Path offers a wide range of email, wireless and secure delivery messaging solutions for corporate enterprises and service providers. Our primary messaging products and services are described below: - InScribe(TM) Email Messaging is an outsourced messaging service for corporate enterprises and service providers. Customers can easily layer other value added services around messaging, including security related add-ons, such as spam-blocking, anti-virus and secure-socket-layer or SSL, and collaborative applications such as calendaring and scheduling. Critical Path's all-inclusive service model pricing includes all enhancements, upgrades and new standard features. Pricing for email and other hosted messaging services generally is based on a per mailbox, per month charge that varies depending on functionality and volume. - InScribe(TM) Messaging Server, or IMS, provides robust message management, administrative control and support for the secure message transfer and access standards as an insourced product for corporate enterprises and service providers. The architecture is optimized for corporate enterprises and service provider environments and delivers superior cost performance at scale as well as easy deployment for faster time to market. The IMS management center provides the high level of service necessary for implementing mission-critical messaging systems. The management center performs remote management of components over TCP/IP, allowing the administrator to manage multiple sites centrally, including remote configuration, routing configuration, fault notification, performance monitoring, system management and message tracking. - InScribe(TM) Secure File Services enables large and/or sensitive documents as well as Internet transactions, to be transported in a secure, trackable and guaranteed manner using open Internet protocols rather than via closed value-added networks. Critical Path supports a broad range of secure delivery environments. - InOne(TM) Groupware Messaging is a bundled service offering that delivers a groupware integration of email messaging, address book and calendaring, which is accessible from web browsers, email clients and wireless devices. - InSchedule(TM) Calendaring is designed for corporate enterprises and service providers and supports both personal calendaring, group scheduling and public events and programs. InSchedule Calendaring creates a single source of program and event information for more-informed planning and streamlined coordination. - InVoke(TM) Wireless. Cellular network operators, network service providers and corporations are faced with increasing demands to provide Internet messaging, business applications and information services to mobile users. InVoke Wireless provides a broad platform for anytime, anywhere access across a diverse array of wireless devices and protocols. - InVoke(TM) Wireless Services. - WAP Access. Developed to be wireless protocol and device agnostic, InVoke Wireless allows access over WAP-enabled devices to InScribe Email Messaging, personal address books, user 7 8 directories and InSchedule(TM) Calendaring. The same information is also accessible via a web browser or desktop client. - Wireless Notifications. When email messages are received or when specific events occur, such as a meeting reminder or inbound fax, users can choose to be notified via their wireless device. This notification service also includes a filtering feature, which allows the user to specify, through a web-based interface, which messages generate notifications to the wireless device. - Email Aggregation automatically checks multiple mailboxes for messages at specified intervals. Copies of all Internet messages are then forwarded to a single Critical Path mailbox. - InVoke(TM) SMS Server provides a feature-rich gateway between the short message service or SMS, of mobile networks and the Internet mail protocol, SMTP. Direct mapping enables users to send and receive email messages as well as information services like stock quotes, traffic reports, sports results and online banking on a wireless device using the cost-effective SMS service. Directory Products. As messaging systems and business environments increase in size and complexity, organizations increasingly need to implement a unified approach to user profile management and security access across intranet and extranet applications. Our primary directory products are described below: - InJoin(TM) Directory Server, our directory product, is designed to store and disseminate information on both a wide area and local area network basis. This information may include user or device profile information including name, location, email address, fax numbers, telephone numbers, physical mail address and pictures as well as personal digital certificates. The directory provides a general purpose, standards-based repository for authentication and authorization information that can be accessed across the enterprise and extranet, supporting varying levels of access control to suit the customer's requirements. - InJoin(TM) Meta-Directory works alongside the InJoin Directory Server and other directory servers, databases and applications to form a unified user profile management framework across heterogeneous systems, which can be updated in real-time. Changes in one system are propagated to other systems based on policy management rules defined by the system administrator. For example, an entry in a human resources system that signals an employee's departure can facilitate the automatic de-provisioning of the employee's email box and security card access. Meta-directory saves internal technology departments from the task of manually updating information such as user profile information and status changes in disparate systems, as well as significantly reduces security risks associated with inaccurate and out of date user profile information. Professional Services and Customer Support. Our professional services group provides technical consulting, training, customer support and product maintenance to assist our customers in maximizing the utilization and functionality of our messaging, directory and security products. - InTouch(TM) Professional Services. Critical Path's worldwide professional services team helps to design customer solutions around Critical Path products and hosted service offerings. Our creativity, experience and timely delivery of solutions provides a competitive edge and affords opportunities to upsell additional services and products to our customer base. We offer a comprehensive range of migration, installation and training services. Our professional services consultants design complex messaging, directory and security infrastructures and work closely with each customer to deploy optimal solutions based on unique business and messaging demands. Additionally, our training services group delivers education and training to our customers and partners. We offer a comprehensive series of classes and on-line training to provide the knowledge and skills to successfully deploy, use and maintain our products and services. - InTouch(TM) Customer Support and Product Maintenance.

Our technical support provides dependable and timely resolution of customer technical inquiries and is available by telephone, the web or email.

In addition to the technical support, we offer product maintenance to our midsource and insource customers. Customers are entitled to receive software updates, upgrades and technical support for an annual maintenance fee. We notify customers about the availability of regular maintenance and enhancement software releases via the web, email and our account management group. Other Product and Services. Critical Path offers several other products and services which complement our suite of core products. Our primary complementary products are detailed below: - InJoin(TM) TRANS enables companies to re-host their existing legacy and batch applications to Unix or NT platforms with little or no change to the application code or data files while incurring cost reductions from the re-hosting. - InLine(TM) Project Collaboration enables corporate project teams to manage, collaborate and track complex projects anytime and anywhere using a standard web browser. - InLine(TM) Resource Management helps customers reduce costs and increase efficiency through the automated scheduling of shared corporate resources such as conference rooms, audio-visual equipment and services. - InScribe(TM) Fax Messaging supports the integration of fax sending and delivery into corporate messaging environments and eBusiness web-based applications. - InScribe(TM) Message Boards enable discussion communities to be built into corporate extranets and intranets and service provider community sites. - InScribe(TM) Usenet Service enables customers to provide access to Usenet newsgroups without hardware and software investments or significant administrative resources, through our hosted Usenet servers. TARGET MARKETS, CUSTOMERS AND STRATEGIC PARTNERS Target Markets We target corporate enterprises and service providers in the corporate enterprises, wireless and telecommunications providers, Internet-centric and postal authority markets. - Corporate Enterprises. Messaging infrastructure products and services have become an important concern for businesses. As the workforce mobilizes, as enterprises become increasingly global, and as critical business information is leveraged outside the physical building of an enterprise in eBusiness applications, the need for reliable messaging and security access controls has expanded significantly. - Wireless and Telecommunications Providers. Much debate exists over which wireless platforms, devices and applications will survive over the next few years. Regardless of the outcome of these debates, wireless users require a way to access the Internet and send and receive messages via their application over their chosen platform and through their chosen device. We believe we provide the necessary access and messaging capability to provide wireless service providers' customers with superior performance. Additionally, to increase the value of their own service, and to grow the value of and retain their customers, telecommunications providers often add advanced Internet messaging solutions to their connectivity and data management offerings. - Internet-Centric Companies. Within the Internet-centric market, we focus on Internet service providers, or ISPs, application service providers, or ASPs, and web portals. Internet service providers are companies that provide access to the Internet via dial-up, ISDN, DSL or broadband connections. Email and other messaging services have become an integral part of ISP service offerings. As basic connection services have become increasingly commoditized, ISPs are aggressively expanding value-added services, including wireless messaging, unified messaging and mobile commerce. Application service providers offer application hosting services and custom application development for corporate customers. Many ASPs offer email messaging as one of their core applications and can take advantage 9 10 of Critical Path's outsourced offering and brand-behind-the-brand strategy to get to market quickly. Portal web sites are attempting to develop a sense of community to draw large online audiences, encourage repeat visits, and keep users engaged. Portals are attempting this by providing users with value-rich content and services, including search engines, access to applications and services, email and other forms of advanced messaging. - Postal Authorities. Postal authorities worldwide use our email solutions to provide country-wide "email for life" and our directory and meta-directory products to serve as central repositories of user profile information that provide security and access control for trusted third party services for hundreds of millions of postal customers. Postal authorities including France's La Poste, Germany's Deutsche Post, Ireland's AnPost and the United Kingdom's Royal Mail ViaCode, have based their eBusiness platform on Critical Path's products. By leveraging our highly scalable directory products, countries are able to build an eBusiness infrastructure capable of extending physical mail delivery services to the electronic world, while reducing business costs, creating new revenue streams, and delivering the trackability, security, and reliability people have come to trust for mission critical information exchange. 10 11 Customers and Strategic Partners We currently offer our products and services to millions of end users across our target markets. The following is a list of various representative companies with whom Critical Path has service, product or strategic agreements within their respective categories.

A key element of Critical Path's strategy is to expand our distribution channels through strategic relationships and entities with which we have contractual reseller or joint sales relationships. Current partners fall into three categories: telecommunications and Internet infrastructure providers, wireless infrastructure and service providers, and Internet security and privilege management infrastructure partners. The following are examples of the existing strategic relationships that we believe will position Critical Path to increase market presence and penetration. 11 12 - Telecommunications and Internet Infrastructure Providers. We have sought reseller relationships with leading telecommunications and Internet infrastructure providers as a means to develop the growing market for outsourced messaging. We believe these relationships provide our partners with vital, value-added services that enable them to retain customers, grow into new business areas, and increase revenue from their installed base. Partners in this space include Comverse Technology, Corio, Critical Path Pacific, ICQ, Network Solutions, and MCI WorldCom. - Wireless Infrastructure and Service Providers. Critical Path's technology supports one-way and two-way messaging services to millions of wireless devices and is one of few companies able to provide end users with the means to send and receive messages to and from mobile phones, paging and other wireless devices. We are aggressively targeting the wireless market across all major segments including ISPs, web portals, wireless original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs, and other cellular and paging companies. Partners in this space include Aether, i3 Mobile, Logica, Motient and Verizon. - Internet Security and Privilege Management Infrastructure Partners. Critical Path has established relationships with major public key infrastructure and Internet security vendors. Our InJoin Directory Server is included in several of our customers' security solutions. Additionally, our InJoin Meta-Directory plays a growing role in large corporation's efforts to develop comprehensive privilege management systems. By working with leading public key infrastructure, password management, and provisioning vendors as well as systems integrators that specialize in this area, we are expanding our channel of large corporations and enterprises. Partners in this space include Access 360 and Entrust. SALES AND MARKETING Sales Strategies Direct Sales. We maintain our own direct sales force to introduce and educate prospective customers and partners about our products and services. The world-wide direct sales group targets the Fortune 1000 and other corporate customers, telecommunications companies, larger ISPs, large web hosting companies and high-trafficked web portals. Critical Path currently has members of its sales group in domestic offices in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Phoenix, Boston, New York, Atlanta, and other cities throughout the United States. Internationally, we have members of our sales group in Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. Within Critical Path's direct sales group, a subgroup is responsible for retaining and increasing use by existing customers. This group is critical to ensuring customer satisfaction and selling existing customers new add-on services as they become available in our products and services offerings. Telesales. Our telesales group conducts sales activities over the phone. The target markets of the telesales group are small to medium-sized businesses, ISPs, and portals. The majority of the activity generated through this group results from phone calls that we initiate to prospective customers. The telesales group also handles outbound calls to a specific list of contacts provided by our marketing organization. In addition, the telesales group follows up on leads resulting from web and telephone communication initiated by prospective customers and qualifies those leads by placing additional calls or referring them to the direct sales group. Indirect sales. The indirect sales group uses the sales forces of Critical Path's partners to offer our products and services to their end users. To gain market presence and market share overseas, Critical Path teams with leading distributors, OEM suppliers, resellers, complementary software makers, and system integrators that have strong industry backgrounds and market presence in their respective markets and geographic regions. These partners include Access360, Ameritech, British Telecom, Comverse Technology, Corio, Entrust and MCI WorldCom. In addition, Critical Path uses partners to resell its products throughout most of Asia and Latin America. Marketing Strategy Marketing. We are focused on media relations and public relations in order to develop a reputation as an industry leader for Internet messaging infrastructure products and services. Critical Path intends to continue 12 13 to focus on print and online advertising campaigns for lead generation. We use event, forum and trade show participation to promote our business-to-business brand presence. Unlike many Internet related companies, we are not fully dependent on developing our own brand, as many of our customers frequently want their own name and branding associated with the Critical Path products or services we provide them. As such, Critical Path's capital requirements for brand building are lower than many companies in the Internet space. TECHNOLOGY Our core technology expertise is in messaging, directory and security. This allows us to deliver highly scalable Internet messaging infrastructure composed of messaging and directory software. Anchored by our messaging server software, we have a range of highly scalable, standards-based, messaging software including calendaring and short message service. Our InScribe Messaging Server is designed for corporate enterprises and service providers and is capable of serving millions of end users with email, accessible through our web mail application, wireless application protocol or WAP, and through standard desktop software using POP or IMAP protocols. Our web mail application is highly customizable and feature rich with our own address book. Our InScribe Messaging Server has a distributed architecture, allowing single or multiple domains to be split over multiple servers, geographically distributed and setup as clusters. Our InScribe Messaging Server also has support for security features including secure-socket-layer, anti-virus and anti-spam. Directory. Our InJoin Directory Server software includes both directory and meta-directory products. Our directory software is useful in providing a common store of user or resource information that can be accessed via standard lightweight directory access or LDAP and X.500 protocols. With two-phase commit technology, the directory is reliable, mission critical software that can be used to store user profiles, digital certificates from public key infrastructure or PKI software, and eBusiness information. The directory is a distributed database, meaning that it can be partitioned both logically and physically, and in order to provide improved performance, replicas can be made and updated according to replication agreements. Our InJoin Meta-Directory software keeps user and resource profile information consistent between disparate messaging and business systems, to improve security, data integrity and reduce overall administration cost. At the core of meta-directory technology is the join engine, with plug-ins that connect to various business systems. Meta-directory is valuable as an integration tool in large organizations to propagate data between disparate directories, databases, network operating systems, applications and messaging systems. Meta-directory is also a valuable provisioning tool for corporate enterprises and service providers, allowing services to be provisioned across multiple disparate systems. Additionally, both directory and meta-directory incorporate security technology like secure-socket-layer for secure transport and authentication. Hosted Messaging. With our deep technical expertise in messaging, directory and security, we also have developed a hosted messaging service that employs our Critical Path Internet messaging infrastructure to offer messaging applications and services to a broad range of customers, reaching tens of millions of accounts and over one million domains. This includes services such as our InScribe Email Messaging, InOne Groupware Messaging and InScribe Secure File Services. Our hosted messaging service can handle high-volume loads for complex and diverse messaging environments including those required by Internet service providers, telecommunications providers, web hosting companies, web portals and corporate enterprises providing accounts to their end-users for activities such as trading securities, shopping or participating in online communities. We have developed proprietary load-balancing and messaging software, and uses Oracle databases for account provisioning and management. Our hosted messaging service is comprised of multiple groups of servers and routers acting as a single, virtual point of contact to customers for messaging services. Our hosted messaging service hardware and software consists of Sun Microsystems servers running Solaris, Cisco routers, EMC redundant storage arrays, Veritas software and rack-mounted Intel processor-based servers. 13 14 All aspects of our hosted messaging service are deployed in a redundant configuration with the goal of ensuring that if any process or system goes down, another will be available to handle customer traffic seamlessly. This behavior is called "transparent failover" and is designed to increase the availability of messaging services to the customer. Our hosted messaging service also includes a dynamic load-balancing system that acts as proxy servers for firewall safety. The load balancers are configured in parallel to ensure that if one goes down, the load is transferred to the remaining systems. We have created a proprietary account provisioning protocol for account creation and maintenance. This enables account transitioning from other services or legacy systems to be bulk-loaded, tested, replicated and deployed on our service automatically. This protocol addresses a critical time to market issue by enabling organizations to quickly transition to the new standards-based email service with minimal down-time and degradation to their existing internal systems. In addition, it can be used by customers and partners to facilitate automatic account sign-ups from web sites, typically in less than three minutes. Data Centers. Our hardware for operating production services currently is located throughout nine data centers across three continents. With multiple high-speed connections to diverse backbone providers and a robust network architecture, we aim to eliminate single points of failure, thus reducing the likelihood that our customers will suffer downtime as a result of network outages. Our backbone architecture and interconnect strategy consists of multiple clear channel OC-3 and DS-3 circuits. We currently have bilateral peering arrangements in place with over 35 networks. Our data centers feature redundant systems for power, raised floors, HVAC temperature control systems, seismically braced racks, fire protection, and physical security and surveillance 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Security. We have a diverse set of firewall solutions that are specifically tailored for each of our hosted services, reducing the likelihood of security breaches. To enhance security for our network, our staff members monitor the network hardware 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Suspicious activity is reported and investigated immediately. Spam and Viruses. Our messaging services include comprehensive content filtering including InCase(TM) Spam Blocking to guard against unsolicited commercial email and InCase(TM) Virus Scanning. Our message filtering technology has been enhanced with partnerships with Brightmail and Symantec, allowing our hosted messaging customers to benefit from new spam and virus filters as they are created in response to attacks worldwide. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Our products and services are mostly based on systems which were internally developed or acquired through acquisitions. We must continually improve these systems to accommodate the level of use of our products and services. In addition, we may add new features and functionality to our products and services that could result in the need to develop, license or integrate additional technologies. Our inability to add additional software and hardware or to upgrade our technology or network infrastructure could have adverse consequences, which include service interruptions, impaired quality of the users' experience and the diversion of development resources. Our failure to provide new features or functionality to our products and services also could result in these consequences. We may not be able to effectively upgrade and expand our systems in a timely manner or to integrate smoothly any newly developed or purchased technologies with our existing systems. These difficulties could harm or limit our ability to improve our business. We invested $2.1 million in research and development expenses in 1998, $7.7 million in 1999 and $31.0 million in 2000. Additionally, we incurred $3.7 million of in-process research and development expense in 2000 related to technologies acquired through two of our acquisitions. We anticipate that we will continue to devote significant resources to product development in the future as we add new features and functionality to our products and services. The market in which we compete is characterized by rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards, frequent new service and product announcements, introductions and enhancements and changing customer demands. Accordingly, our future success will depend on our ability to adapt to rapidly changing technologies, to adapt our services to evolving industry standards and to continually improve the performance, features and reliability of our products and services. The failure to adapt to such 14 15 changes would harm our business. In addition, the widespread adoption of new Internet, networking or telecommunications technologies or other technological changes could require us to undertake substantial expenditures to modify or adapt our services or infrastructure. EMPLOYEES At December 31, 2000, we had 1,041 employees, including 340 in operations, 305 in sales and marketing, 252 in research and development and 144 in general corporate and administration. Our future success depends, in significant part, upon the continued service of our key technical and senior management personnel and our continuing ability to attract and retain highly qualified technical, sales and managerial personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense, and we cannot guarantee that we can retain our key technical and managerial employees or that we will be able to attract, assimilate or retain other highly qualified technical, sales and managerial personnel in the future. None of our employees are represented by a labor union. We have not experienced any work stoppages and consider our relations with our employees to be good. COMPETITION Because we have numerous Internet messaging infrastructure products and services, we are not aware of a single enterprise that competes across all of our products and services. However, we encounter different competitors at each level of our products and services. For corporate customers seeking outsourced hosted messaging solutions, we compete with email service providers, including Commtouch, mail.com, USA.NET and application service providers offering hosted exchange services. For service providers seeking insourced or outsourced product-based solutions we compete with iPlane and OpenWave. For secure delivery services, competitors include Tumbleweed for product-based solutions and SlamDunk for service-based solutions. In the directory and meta-directory market, we encounter primarily iPlanet, Microsoft and Novell in the enterprise/eBusiness directory category, and iPlanet, Microsoft, Novell, and Siemens are among our competitors in the meta-directory market. While these competitors exist in each of our individual product markets, we believe our complete solution of products and services serves as a competitive advantage, because our customers can easily integrate their infrastructure with our broad product line, selecting multiple Critical Path products and services as their requirements demand. We believe that competitive factors affecting the market for Internet messaging infrastructure solutions include: - Breadth of platform features and functionality; - Ease of integration into customers' existing systems; - Ease of expansion and upgrade; - Flexibility to enable customers to manage certain aspects of their systems internally and leverage outsourced services in other cases when resources, costs and time to market reasons favor an outsourced offering; - Cost of ownership and operation; - Scalability, reliability and performance; and - Ability to enhance customers' brand identities by allowing them to maintain brand control. The relative importance of each of these factors depends upon the specific customer environment. Although we believe that our products and services currently compete favorably with respect to such factors, we may not be able to maintain our competitive position against current and potential competitors. We believe competition will increase as current competitors increase the sophistication of their offerings and as new participants enter the market. Many current and potential competitors have longer operating histories, larger customer bases, greater brand recognition and significantly greater financial, marketing and 15 16 other resources than we do and may enter into strategic or commercial relationships with larger, more established and better-financed companies. Any delay would also allow competitors additional time to improve their service or product offerings, and provide time for new competitors to develop Internet messaging infrastructure products and services and solicit prospective customers within our target markets. Increased competition could result in pricing pressures, reduced operating margins and loss of market share, any of which could cause our business to suffer. GOVERNMENT REGULATION Although there are currently few laws and regulations directly applicable to the Internet and commercial messaging services, it is possible that a number of laws and regulations may be adopted with respect to the Internet or commercial email services covering issues such as user privacy, pricing, content, copyrights, distribution, antitrust and characteristics and quality of products and services. Further, the growth and development of the market for online email may prompt calls for more stringent consumer protection laws that may impose additional burdens on those companies conducting business online. The adoption of any additional laws or regulations may impair the growth of the Internet or commercial online services, which could, in turn, decrease the demand for our products and services and increase our cost of doing business, or otherwise harm our business, operating results and financial condition. Moreover, the applicability to the Internet of existing laws in various jurisdictions governing issues such as property ownership, sales and other taxes, libel and personal privacy is uncertain and may take years to resolve. Any such new legislation or regulation, the application of laws and regulations from jurisdictions whose laws do not currently apply to our business or the application of existing laws and regulations to the Internet could harm our business, operating results and financial condition. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES Our corporate headquarters and primary operations and development facilities are located in two office buildings in San Francisco, California. We occupy approximately 64,500 square feet in these two office buildings. There are two leases which relate to our initial San Francisco location, one of which will be expiring on June 30, 2002 but has a five-year renewal option and the second of which is a sublease that will expire on March 31, 2002. The lease for the second location will expire on February 1, 2011, but has a five-year renewal option. In addition to these locations, we currently occupy a 24,300 square foot building in Dublin, Ireland under a lease expiring on July 14, 2014. We lease additional facilities in Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Malaysia, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and several cities throughout the United States. We continually evaluate the adequacy of our existing facilities, and we believe that the current facilities will be suitable for our needs for the next 12 months, or that additional space will be available on commercially reasonable terms, if necessary. ITEM 3. LEGAL We are a party to lawsuits in the normal course of our business. Litigation in general, and securities and intellectual property litigation in particular, can be expensive and disruptive to normal business operations. Moreover, the results of complex legal proceedings are difficult to predict. Other than as described below, we are not a party to any other material legal proceedings. Securities Class Actions Beginning on February 2, 2001, a number of securities class action complaints were filed against us, certain of our current and former officers and directors and our independent accountants in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. The complaints have been filed as purported class actions by individuals who allege that they purchased our common stock during a purported class period; the alleged class periods vary among the complaints and are in the process of being consolidated into a single action. The complaints generally allege that, in differing periods from April 2000 to February 1, 2001, we and other named the defendants made false or misleading statements of material fact about our financial statements, including our revenues, revenue recognition policies, business operations and prospects for the year 16 17 2000 and beyond. The complaints seek an unspecified amount in damages on behalf of persons who purchased Critical Path stock during certain periods. Derivative Actions Beginning on February 5, 2001, we have been named as a nominal defendant in a number of derivative actions, purportedly brought on our behalf, filed in the Superior Court of the State of California. The derivative complaints allege that certain of our current and former officers and directors breached their fiduciary duties to us, engaged in abuses of their control of us, were unjustly enriched by their sales of our common stock, engaged in insider trading in violation of California law or published false financial information in violation of California law. The plaintiffs seek unspecified damages on our behalf from each of the defendants. Because of the nature of derivative litigation, any recovery in the action would inure to our benefit. SEC Investigation In February 2001, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued a formal order of investigation of Critical Path and certain unidentified individuals associated with Critical Path with respect to non-specified accounting matters, financial reports, other public disclosures and trading activity in our securities. While we do not know the current status of the investigation or any possible actions that may be taken against us as a result, any SEC action against us could harm our business. The uncertainty associated with substantial unresolved lawsuits and the SEC investigation could seriously harm our business and financial condition. In particular, the lawsuits or the investigation could harm our relationships with existing customers and our ability to obtain new customers. The continued defense of the lawsuits and conduct of the investigation could also result in the diversion of our management's time and attention away from business operations, which could harm our business. Negative developments with respect to the lawsuits or the investigation could cause our stock price to decline significantly. In addition, although we are unable to determine the amount, if any, that we may be required to pay in connection with the resolution of these lawsuits or the investigation by settlement or otherwise, the size of any such payment could seriously harm our financial condition.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto of Critical Path, Inc. appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements. Our actual results may differ significantly from those projected in these forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause future results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, difficulties of forecasting future results due to our limited operating history, evolving business strategy and the emerging nature of the market for our products and services, pending litigation and SEC investigation, turnover of senior management and other key personnel, difficulties of integrating acquired businesses, failure to expand our sales and marketing activities, potential difficulties associated with strategic relationships, investments and uncollected bills, risks associated with our international operations, foreign currency fluctuations, unplanned system interruptions and capacity constraints, software defects, and those discussed in "Additional Factors That May Affect Future Operating Results" and elsewhere in this report. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward- looking statements. We have no obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this filing. OVERVIEW Critical Path, Inc. is a leading global provider of Internet messaging infrastructure products and services. We provide solutions to manage the flow of mission-critical information through an integrated portfolio of messaging, directory, and security solutions. Our technology provides the messaging infrastructure that fuels customers' new and existing eBusiness initiatives. Critical Path was founded in 1997 and is headquartered in San Francisco, with offices worldwide. From inception through 1999, our primary source of revenue came from service fees related to hosted messaging. Through a series of acquisitions during 1999 and 2000, we expanded our product offerings to include a wide range of messaging and collaboration licensed products and services. In total, we acquired ten companies, all of which were accounted for using the purchase method of accounting (see Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -- Acquisitions). 1999 ACQUISITIONS. On May 26, 1999, we acquired substantially all the operating assets of the Connect Service business of Fabrik Communications, including the ongoing business operations as well as nearly 500 customer relationships for a total purchase price of approximately $20.1 million. On July 21, 1999, we acquired dotOne Corporation, a corporate email messaging service provider for a total purchase price of approximately $57.0 million. On August 31, 1999, we acquired Amplitude Software Corporation, a provider of business-to-business Internet calendaring and resource scheduling solutions for a total purchase price of approximately $214.4 million. On November 24, 1999, we acquired Xeti, Inc., a developer of standards-based public key infrastructure solutions for a total purchase price of approximately $23.8 million. On December 6, 1999, we acquired FaxNet Corporation, a outsource supplier of carrier-class enhanced fax and integrated messaging solutions for a total purchase price of approximately $187.6 million. 2000 ACQUISITIONS. On January 19, 2000, we acquired ISOCOR Corporation, a supplier of Internet messaging, directory and meta-directory software solutions for a total purchase price of approximately $277.4 million. On March 8, 2000, we acquired The docSpace Company, a provider of web-based services for secure file delivery, storage and collaboration for a total purchase price of approximately $258.0 million. On March 30, 2000, we acquired RemarQ Communities, Inc., a provider of Internet collaboration services for corporations, web portals and Internet service providers for a total purchase price of approximately $267.6 million. On June 26, 2000, we acquired Netmosphere, Inc., a provider of e-Business solutions for project collaboration and communications for a total purchase price of approximately $41.3 million. On September 26, 2000, we acquired PeerLogic, Inc., a provider of directory and enterprise application integration software for a total purchase price of approximately $445.1 million. We are currently evaluating our various products, services, facilities and the business plan under which we are operating. As part of this evaluation, we are reviewing the products and services we sell to customers, the locations in which we operate, and the manner in which we go to market with our core product and service 21 22 offerings. Many alternatives are currently being considered but as of the current date no decisions have been made. Ultimately, we may decide to continue to operate as we do today, sustain certain products and services where customer commitments prevent us from eliminating the offering all together, or eliminate the offering through termination, sale or other disposition. The results of these decisions will likely vary, depending on the product or service offering being considered and the decision that is ultimately made. If a decision is made to eliminate any product or service, it will most likely involve the receipt or outlay of capital, realization of gains or losses, a reduction in workforce, facility consolidation, and the elimination of revenue streams and any related costs. We currently have offices in Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Malaysia, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and several cities throughout the United States. We have incurred significant losses since our inception, and as of December 31, 2000, had an accumulated deficit of approximately $2.0 billion, inclusive of a $1.31 billion charge for impairment of certain long-lived assets recorded in the fourth quarter of 2000. We intend to continue to invest in sales and marketing, continued development of our network infrastructure, and continued technology enhancements. We expect to continue to incur substantial operating losses for the foreseeable future. In view of the rapidly evolving nature of our business, recent acquisitions, and limited operating history, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of revenues and operating results, including gross profit margin and operating expenses as a percentage of total net revenues, are not meaningful and should not be relied upon as indications of future performance. At December 31, 2000, we had 1,041 employees, in comparison with 488 employees at December 31, 1999 and 93 employees at December 31, 1998. We do not believe that our historical growth rates for revenue, expenses, or personnel are indicative of future results. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS On February 2, 2001, we issued a press release announcing that we believed that our previously announced unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter of 2000 may have been materially misstated, that the Board of Directors had formed a special committee to conduct an investigation into the matter, and that our president and vice president of worldwide sales had been placed on administrative leave related to the matter. On February 15, 2001, we announced that, based on the preliminary results of the investigation being conducted, we would revise our previously announced unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter of 2000 and were reviewing certain specific transactions that were reported as revenue during the third quarter of 2000. During February and March 2001, the investigation by the special committee of the Board of Directors was completed, we completed our internal review, and our auditors completed the annual audit. As a result, our financial results for certain periods within the year 2000 were materially restated or revised (see Note 22 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -- Quarterly Financial Data (Unaudited)). 22 23 The following table presents the historical results of Critical Path's operations during 1998, 1999 and 2000 and the relative composition of net revenues and selected statement of operations data as a percentage of net revenues during 1998, 1999 and 2000.

23 24 Net Revenues We derive most of our revenues through the sale of our Internet messaging infrastructure solutions. These solutions include both licensed software products and hosted messaging and collaboration services. In addition, we receive revenues from professional services and post-contract customer support. Agreements with some of our customers require minimum performance standards regarding the availability and response time of our messaging services. If we fail to meet these standards, customers could terminate their relationships and we could be subject to contractual monetary penalties. License revenue is derived from perpetual and term licenses for our messaging, directory, collaborative and enterprise application integration technologies. License revenues are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery of the licensed software to the customer has occurred and the collection of a fixed or determinable license fee is considered probable. Service revenue is derived from hosted services, professional services and post-contract customer support. Hosted services relate to fees for our hosted messaging and collaboration services. These are primarily based upon monthly contractual per unit rates for the services involved, which are recognized on a ratable monthly basis over the term of the contract beginning with the month in which service delivery starts. Amounts billed or received in advance of service delivery, including but not limited to branding and set-up fees, are initially deferred and subsequently recognized on a ratable monthly basis over the term of the contract beginning with the month in which service delivery starts. Professional services revenue is derived from fees primarily related to training, installation and configuration services. The associated revenues are recognized in the period in which the services are performed. Customer support revenue is derived from fees related to post-contract customer support agreements associated with software product licenses. These fees are recognized ratably over the term of the support contract, generally one year. License. We recognized $51.6 million in license revenues during 2000, as compared to insignificant license revenues in 1999 and none in 1998. This significant increase over 1999 and 1998 was attributed to the introduction of our insource product offerings related to messaging, directory and meta-directory as a result of our acquisitions of Amplitude, ISOCOR, and PeerLogic. In addition, during 2000 we experienced an increase in demand for our messaging, directory, and meta-directory applications. Service. We recognized $84.0 million in service revenues during 2000, as compared to $16.2 million in 1999 and approximately $897,000 during 1998. We experienced significant increases in 2000, over the 1999 and 1998 service revenue levels as a result of the introduction of new product offerings, additional post-contract customer support agreements and an increase in our professional services, each of which is primarily attributable to our numerous acquisitions, specifically Amplitude, ISOCOR, RemarQ, and PeerLogic. Additionally, we experienced penetration into the hosted messaging services market, and have experienced increases in the number of email boxes hosted, including enterprise customers, and increased demand for our value-added outsourced services. Critical Path's international operations accounted for approximately 38% of net revenues during 2000. Revenues from international operations were insignificant in 1999 and 1998. This significant increase in international revenues related primarily to the acquisition of ISOCOR. Cost of Net Revenues License. Cost of net license revenues consists primarily of product media duplication, manuals and packaging materials, personnel and facility costs, and third-party royalties. This significant increase in 2000 over 1999 and 1998 levels was attributed to the introduction of new product offerings related to messaging, directory and meta-directory, as a result of our numerous acquisitions in 1999 and 2000, specifically, the acquisitions of Amplitude, ISOCOR, and PeerLogic. Service. Cost of net service revenues consists primarily of costs incurred in the delivery and support of messaging services, including depreciation of capital equipment used in network infrastructure, amortization of purchased technology, Internet connection charges, accretion of acquisition-related retention bonuses, personnel costs incurred in operations, customer support functions and professional services including custom 24 25 engineering, installation and training services for both hosted and licensed solutions, and other direct and allocated indirect costs. We added 15 new hosted messaging clusters to our data centers during 2000, expanding the capacity of our hosting network to manage current customer requirements and future growth. Additional costs were incurred during 2000 to add technology platforms for new service offerings. As a result of these significant acquisitions of equipment and related support and professional services resources, depreciation and other costs during 2000 increased substantially in comparison with 1999 and 1998. Cost of net service revenues also was impacted by the increased compensation and other personnel costs resulting from the additional headcount added through our ten acquisitions completed during 1999 and 2000, and through our continued efforts to enhance our portfolio of product and service offerings. Operations, customer support, and professional services staff increased to 340 employees at December 31, 2000, from 174 employees at December 31, 1999, and 25 employees at December 31, 1998. During 2000, we recognized charges associated with amortization of acquired technology as a result of our various acquisitions. Additionally, we recognized charges related to acquisition-related retention bonuses during 1999 and 2000 and stock-based charges associated with employee stock options during 1998, 1999 and 2000. Operating Expenses Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of compensation for sales and marketing personnel, advertising, public relations, other promotional costs, and, to a lesser extent, related overhead. Increases in marketing and promotional expenses, incentive compensation payments to sales personnel, and increases in compensation associated with additional headcount added through our ten acquisitions completed during 1999 and 2000, resulted in the increase in sales and marketing expenses. Sales and marketing staff increased to 305 employees at December 31, 2000, from 168 employees at December 31, 1999 and 30 employees at December 31, 1998, primarily through our acquisitions. Research and Development. Research and development expenses consist primarily of compensation for technical staff, payments to outside contractors, depreciation of capital equipment associated with research and development activities, and, to a lesser extent, related overhead. These significant increases from 1998 to 2000 resulted primarily from increased compensation and other personnel costs from the additional headcount added through our ten acquisitions completed during 1999 and 2000. Additionally, we increased headcount to continue to develop and enhance our portfolio of messaging, directory and security solutions. Research and development staff increased to 252 employees at December 31, 2000, from 94 employees at December 31, 1999, and 27 employees at December 31, 1998, primarily through our acquisitions. General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation for personnel, fees for outside professional services, occupancy costs and, to a lesser extent, related overhead. These significant increases from 1998 to 2000, resulted primarily from increased compensation and other personnel costs associated with additional headcount added through our ten acquisitions completed during 1999 and 2000, and higher fees for outside professional services. General and administrative staff increased to 144 employees at December 31, 2000, from 52 employees at December 31, 1999, and 11 employees at December 31, 1998, primarily through our acquisitions. Amortization of Intangible Assets In connection with our 1999 and 2000 acquisitions, which were all accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, we recorded goodwill and other intangible assets, primarily including assembled workforce, customer base, and existing technology. There were no acquisitions in 1998. Based on the types of identifiable intangibles acquired in 2000, amortization expense of $18.1 million was allocated to cost of net revenues and amortization expense of $355.9 million was allocated to operating expenses. All amortization expense was allocated to operating expenses in 1999. 25 26 Acquisition-Related Retention Bonuses In connection with the acquisitions of dotOne, Amplitude, Xeti, FaxNet, ISOCOR, and docSpace, we established various retention bonus programs that in the aggregate amounted to approximately $20.7 million in incentives for certain former employees of these companies to encourage their continued employment with Critical Path (see Note 3 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -- Acquisition-Related Retention Bonuses). Stock-Based Expenses Stock Options. We granted certain stock options with exercise prices below market value on the date of grant and issued certain common stock to employees, directors and advisors during 1999 and 1998. As a result, we recorded unearned compensation totaling $22.3 million in 1999 and $19.9 million in 1998. These amounts are being amortized over the vesting periods of the related options. In March 2001, in connection with an employee retention program, we granted options with exercise prices below market value on the date of grant to certain employees. This program will result in approximately $16.1 million in additional unearned compensation. We expect aggregate annual amortization related to unearned compensation of $19.4 million in 2001, $5.9 million in 2002, and $85,000 in 2003. During 2000, we also incurred stock-based charges of approximately $5.7 million in connection with certain severance agreements for terminated employees. Approximately, $3.4 million of this charge was included in employee severance expense in connection with our plan to reduce worldwide headcount and the remaining $2.3 million was included in stock-based expenses. During 1999, we incurred a stock-based charge of approximately $2.0 million in connection with a severance agreement for a terminated employee. This expense was charged to cost of net revenues based on the employee's function. Warrants. During 1999 and 2000, we issued warrants to purchase shares of our preferred and common stock pursuant to certain strategic agreements (see Note 15 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -- Shareholders' Equity). We believe that these warrant agreements could have a significant current and potential future impact on our results of operations. In January 1999, we entered into an agreement with ICQ, Inc., a subsidiary of AOL Time Warner, pursuant to which we provide email hosting services that are integrated with ICQ's instant messaging service provided to ICQ's customers. As part of the agreement, ICQ agreed to provide sub-branded advertising for Critical Path in exchange for a warrant to purchase 2,442,766 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, issuable upon attainment of each of five milestones. As of April 9, 2000, all five milestones had been attained and the final revised aggregate fair value of all vested warrants was $93.8 million, which is being amortized to advertising expense using the straight-line method over four years. Aggregate charges recorded to stock-based expenses were $19.5 million during 2000 and $27.4 million during 1999. There were no related stock-based expenses recorded during 1998. In connection with our review of our fourth quarter financial results, we recorded an impairment charge of $16.8 million (see Note 17 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -- Impairment of Long-Lived Assets). The adjusted fair value at December 31, 2000, of approximately $30.1 million will be amortized over the remaining benefit period of three years. In October 1999, we entered into an agreement with Qwest Communications Corporation, a telecommunications company, pursuant to which we will provide email hosting services to Qwest's customers. As part of the agreement, Qwest agreed to provide sub-branded advertising for us in exchange for a warrant to purchase up to a maximum of 3,534,540 shares of common stock upon attainment of each of six milestones. In October 1999, the first of the six milestones had been attained and the final revised aggregate fair value of the vested warrants associated with the first milestone approximated $22.2 million, which is being amortized to advertising expense using the straight-line method over three years. None of the remaining milestones are considered probable and as a result, the fair value of the warrants relating to the shares underlying the second through sixth milestones has not been recognized. Aggregate charges recorded to stock-based expenses were $7.4 million during 2000 and $1.5 million during 1999. In connection with our review of our fourth quarter financial results, we recorded an impairment charge of $4.8 million (see Note 17 of Notes to Consolidated 26 27 Financial Statements -- Impairment of Long-Lived Assets). The adjusted fair value at December 31, 2000, of approximately $8.6 million will be amortized over the remaining benefit period of two years. In December 1999, we entered into an agreement with Worldsport Network Ltd., the sole and exclusive provider of Internet solutions for the General Association of International Sports Federations or GAISF and a majority of the international federations it recognizes. Under the terms of the agreement, Worldsport offers Critical Path's web-based email and calendaring services to the entire GAISF network and its members. As part of the agreement, Worldsport agreed to provide sub-branded advertising for Critical Path in exchange for warrants to purchase up to a 1.25% equity interest in Critical Path on a fully diluted basis upon attainment of each of five milestones based on the number of email boxes for which Worldsport registers and provides sub-branding. The warrants are exercisable for five years after becoming vested. Any warrants not vested within five years of the date of the agreement will be cancelled. As of December 31, 2000, Worldsport had filed for bankruptcy and accordingly, none of the milestones were considered probable and no deferred compensation associated with these warrants was recognized. In December 1999, we entered into an agreement with one of our lessors, in connection with an office lease, pursuant to which the lessor is entitled to purchase up to a maximum of 25,000 shares of our common stock. The warrants may be exercised beginning January 1, 2000 through December 20, 2006 at a price of $90.00 per share. The warrants vest at the beginning of each month on a straight-line basis in the amount of 521 shares per month. The fair value of approximately $2.0 million is being amortized to general and administrative expenses using the straight-line method over 10 years. During 2000, $200,000 was charged to stock-based expense related to the vested warrants. No amounts were charged to stock-based expense related to the vested warrants during 1999. In January 2000, The docSpace Company entered into an agreement with a major telecommunications company ("Telco") pursuant to which docSpace would provide secure messaging services to the Telco's customers. As part of the agreement, Telco agreed to provide marketing, publicity, and promotional services to docSpace. As a result of the completion of our acquisition of docSpace, Critical Path assumed warrants that allowed Telco to purchase up to a maximum of 349,123 shares of Critical Path common stock upon attainment of each of three milestones. Subsequent to the acquisition, we entered into discussions with Telco to modify our relationship. Accordingly, we believe the vesting provisions of the proposed agreement will be modified to reflect the requirements of the new relationship. As of December 31, 2000, none of the vesting milestones of the original agreement had been attained; however, we believe that all shares underlying these warrants are probable of issuance. As a result, the shares underlying these milestones were remeasured, resulting in a revised fair value of the warrants of $9.6 million. As of December 31, 2000, no amounts had been recognized as stock-based expense related to these warrants. We expect that future changes in the trading price of our common stock at the end of each quarter, and at the time certain milestones are achieved, will cause additional substantial changes in the ultimate amount of the related stock-based charges. Acquired In-Process Research and Development In connection with the acquisitions of ISOCOR and PeerLogic during 2000, we recognized $3.7 million representing the value attributable to acquired in-process research and development that had not yet reached technological feasibility and had no alternative future use. These values were determined by estimating the future net cash flows of the acquired in-process research and development over their respective estimated useful life and discounting the net cash flows back to their present value. No amounts were recognized resulting from acquired in-process research and development during 1999 and 1998. Employee Severance Expenses On July 19, 2000, we announced our plan to reduce our worldwide employee headcount by approximately 11%. This employee reduction plan was executed with the intent to realize various synergies gained through the nine acquisitions we completed in 1999 and the first half of 2000. During 2000, we recognized a charge for severance-related costs totaling approximately $6.6 million, composed of $3.2 million in cash 27 28 charges and $3.4 million in stock-based compensation expense, resulting from the acceleration of certain employee stock options. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets As part of our review of our fourth quarter financial results, an impairment assessment of our long-lived assets was performed. The assessment was performed primarily due to the significant decline in our stock price, the net book value of assets significantly exceeding our market capitalization, the significant underperformance of certain acquisitions relative to projections, the overall decline of growth rates in the industry, and our lower fourth quarter 2000 and projected 2001 operating results compared to earlier forecasts. As a result, we recorded a $1.3 billion impairment charge to reduce goodwill and other intangible assets and deferred costs associated with our ICQ and Qwest relationships in the fourth quarter of 2000 to their estimated fair values. The estimates of their fair values were based upon our estimated discounted cash flows for the succeeding three years using a discount rate of 25% and an estimated terminal value. The assumptions supporting the cash flows, including the discount rate and estimated terminal value, were determined using management's best estimates. The discount rate was primarily based upon the weighted average cost of capital for comparable companies. The remaining goodwill and identifiable intangibles balance of approximately $77.3 million will be amortized over the remaining useful lives, which approximates two years. These remaining identifiable intangible assets primarily relate to existing technology for some of the licensed products we acquired in 2000 and certain amounts related to assembled work forces acquired in 1999 and 2000. The aggregate adjusted fair value at December 31, 2000, relative to the ICQ and Qwest warrants, approximates $38.7 million and will be amortized over the remaining relative benefit periods of between two and three years. Interest and Other Income (Expense) Interest and other income (expense) consists primarily of interest earnings on cash and cash equivalents as well as net realized gains (losses) on foreign exchange transactions. We completed private placements of equity securities in April 1998, September 1998, and January 1999, and we completed public offerings of common stock in April 1999 and June 1999. In addition, on March 30, 2000, we issued $300.0 million of five-year, 5.75% Convertible Subordinated Notes due April 1, 2005. As a result, interest income increased significantly during the latter half of 1999 and into 2000, in comparison with early 1999, due to higher cash balances available for investing. During 2000, we recognized a net loss from foreign currency transactions associated with our international operations in the amount of $280,000. Foreign currency transaction gain or loss were insignificant during 1999 and 1998. Interest Expense Interest expense consists primarily of the interest and amortization of related issuance costs related to the Convertible Subordinated Notes we issued in March 2000, the amortization of related issuance costs and interest on certain capital leases. We incurred approximately $13.0 million in interest expense on the Convertible Subordinated Notes, and approximately $1.6 million related to amortization of debt issuance costs in 2000. Interest on capital leases and other long-term obligations amounted to approximately $1.3 million during 2000, $688,000 during 1999, and $227,000 during 1998. Additionally, amortization of stock-based charges associated with warrants issued in connection with various of our financings in 1998 and 1999, amounted to $64,000 during 2000, $64,000 during 1999 and $161,000 during 1998. Equity in Net Loss of Critical Path Pacific In June 2000, we established a joint venture, Critical Path Pacific, with Mitsui and Co., Ltd., NTT Communications Corporation and NEC Corporation to deliver advanced Internet messaging solutions to businesses in Asia. We invested $7.5 million and hold a 40% ownership interest in the joint venture. This investment is being accounted for using the equity method. During 2000, we recorded equity in net loss of joint venture of approximately $1.0 million. 28 29 Minority Interest in Net Income of Consolidated Subsidiary As of December 31, 2000, we owned a 72.87% interest in CP Italia, a consolidated subsidiary, which was acquired in connection with the acquisition of ISOCOR. For 2000, the minority interest in net income of CP Italia amounted to $649,000. In March 2001, in connection with our agreement to purchase the remaining minority interest, we acquired the outstanding 27.13% interest in CP Italia for approximately $4.2 million. Loss on Investments During 2000, we determined that certain of our investments were permanently impaired and recorded write downs of $23.6 million, consisting of $2.6 million in investments in marketable securities and $21.0 million in investments in non-marketable securities (see Note 7 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -- Investments). Provision for Income Taxes No current provision or benefit for U.S. federal or state income taxes has been recorded as we have incurred net operating losses for income tax purposes since our inception. No deferred provision or benefit for federal or state income taxes has been recorded as we are in a net deferred tax asset position for which a full valuation allowance has been provided due to uncertainty of realization. We recognized a provision for foreign income taxes during 2000 as certain of our European operations generated income taxable in certain European jurisdictions. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES During 2000 and 1999, we invested our cash primarily in money market funds and other highly liquid securities with maturities of less than 90 days with the intent to make such funds readily available for operating purposes. Beginning in 2001, we have begun investing a portion of our cash in high grade, low risk investments with an average maturity of 12 months. As of December 31, 2000, our cash balance was $216.5 million and our working capital amounted to approximately $186.8 million. We used cash to fund operating activities during 2000 primarily due to our net loss adjusted for non-cash charges, severance expense and acquisition-related retention bonus payments. These disbursements related primarily to compensation for our employees. In addition, we used cash to fund various other operating costs, which are identified in the Results of Operations portion of this section. During 1999, we used cash to fund operating activities, primarily related to compensation for our employees. The large increase in cash used in operations from 1999 to 2000 was predominantly caused by the increase in employees and facilities resulting from our numerous acquisitions and to a lesser extent the operating costs of the new products and services acquired. We used cash in investing activities during 2000 to purchase property, equipment and other capital expenditures and to fund certain strategic acquisitions and investments. The significant outlay in capital expenditures during 2000 was primarily related to installation of additional network infrastructure equipment in our data centers, licenses of new software platforms, and purchases of furniture and equipment for new employees. During 2000, we completed our acquisitions of ISOCOR, docSpace, RemarQ, Netmosphere, and PeerLogic, and as a result, expended a significant amount of capital. In addition, we made several strategic investments in private entities and an initial capital contribution to fund our interest in the Critical Path Pacific joint venture. We advanced funds to certain employees pursuant to promissory notes. These uses of cash were offset by the repayment of a previous advance to a private company pursuant to a promissory note and certain of the employee notes. During 1999, we disbursed capital to purchase property and equipment, expended significant capital related to our 1999 acquisitions, advanced funds to obtain equity positions in strategic partners, and issued notes to certain employees and officers. We received cash proceeds from financing activities during 2000 from the sale of $300.0 million in convertible subordinated notes, as well as from the exercise of employee stock options and the purchase of stock under our employee stock purchase plan. These cash proceeds were partially offset by a payment to 29 30 retire a note payable assumed in the PeerLogic acquisition and payments to retire principal on capital lease obligations. During 1999, we received cash proceeds from the sale of our preferred stock, the closing of our initial public offering of common stock, and closing of our follow-on offering of common stock. These increases in cash in 1999 were offset by a payment to retire principal on capital lease obligations and the purchase of treasury stock. Liquidity Since inception, we have incurred substantial costs as a result of the rapid expansion of our product offerings and network infrastructure during 1999 and 2000. We continue to face significant risks associated with successful execution of our business strategy. These risks include, but are not limited to, technology and product development, introduction and market acceptance of new products and services, changes in the marketplace, liquidity, competition from existing and new competitors which may enter the marketplace, retention of key personnel, and pending litigation. We require sufficient capital to implement our strategy, to adequately address the appropriate target markets, generate sales demand for our current and planned future products and services. In addition, our liquidity could be adversely impacted by the litigation referred to in Note 13 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -- Commitments and Contingencies, although we believe the litigation will not have a material adverse impact on working capital through the end of 2001. We believe, based on the available cash balances, we have sufficient cash resources to fund operations through at least the end of 2001. On a long-term basis, however, we may require additional financing. There can be no assurance, however, that such financing would be available when needed, if at all, or on favorable terms and conditions. 30 31 ADDITIONAL FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS WE HAVE A HISTORY OF LOSSES, EXPECT CONTINUING LOSSES AND MAY NEVER ACHIEVE PROFITABILITY. As of December 31, 2000, we had an accumulated deficit, including other comprehensive income, of approximately $2.0 billion. We have not achieved profitability in any period, and expect to continue to incur net losses in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for the foreseeable future. We expect that our operating expenses will increase as we continue to spend resources on building our business and that this increase may have a negative effect on operating results and financial condition in the near term. We have spent heavily on technology and infrastructure development. We may continue to spend substantial financial and other resources to develop and introduce new end-to-end Internet messaging infrastructure products and services, and improve our sales and marketing organizations, strategic relationships and operating infrastructure. In addition, in future periods we will continue to incur significant non-cash charges related to the ten acquisitions we completed in 1999 and 2000 and stock-based compensation. We expect that our cost of revenues, sales and marketing expenses, general and administrative expenses, operations and customer support expenses, and depreciation and amortization expenses could continue to increase in absolute dollars and may increase as a percent of revenues. If revenues do not correspondingly increase, our operating results and financial condition could be harmed. Should we continue to incur net losses in future periods, we may not be able to retain employees, fund investments in capital equipment, sales and marketing programs, and research and development to successfully compete against our competitors. We may never obtain sufficient revenues to achieve profitability. If we do achieve profitability, we may not sustain or increase profitability in the future. This may, in turn, cause our stock price to decline. DUE TO OUR LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY, EVOLVING BUSINESS STRATEGY AND THE EMERGING NATURE OF THE INTERNET MESSAGING INFRASTRUCTURE MARKET, FUTURE REVENUES ARE UNPREDICTABLE, AND OUR QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS MAY FLUCTUATE. We cannot accurately forecast our revenues as a result of our limited operating history, evolving business strategy and the emerging nature of the Internet messaging infrastructure market. Forecasting is further complicated by rapid changes in our business due to the ten acquisitions we completed in 1999 and 2000, as well as a related increase in license revenues as a percentage of total revenues from an insignificant percentage in 1999 to 38% in 2000. Our revenues could fall short of expectations if we experience delays or cancellations of even a small number of orders. We often offer volume-based pricing, which may affect operating margins. A number of factors are likely to cause fluctuations in operating results, including, but not limited to: - Continued growth of the Internet in general and the use of messaging infrastructure products and services in particular; - Demand for outsourced messaging services; - Demand for licensing of messaging, directory, and other products; - Our ability to attract and retain customers and maintain customer satisfaction; - Our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel with Internet industry expertise, particularly sales and marketing personnel; - The reaction of our customers and potential customers to our ongoing integration of acquired businesses; - Our ability to upgrade, develop and maintain our systems and infrastructure; - The budgeting cycles of our customers and potential customers; - The amount and timing of operating costs and capital expenditures relating to expansion of business and infrastructure; - Our ability to effectively respond to the rapid technology change of the Internet messaging infrastructure market; 31 32 - Technical difficulties or system outages; and - The announcement or introduction of new or enhanced services by competitors. In addition to the factors set forth above, operating results will be impacted by the extent to which we incur non-cash charges associated with stock-based arrangements with employees and non-employees. In particular, we have incurred and expect to continue to incur substantial non-cash charges associated with the grant of stock options to employees and non-employees and the grant of warrants to our customers and other parties with which we have commercial relationships. These grants of options and warrants also may be dilutive to existing shareholders. Our operating results also could be impacted by a decision to eliminate a product or service offering through termination, sale or other disposition or to sustain certain products and services at a minimum level where customer commitments prevent us from eliminating the offering altogether. We are currently evaluating our various products, services, facilities and the business plan under which we are operating, and each of the foregoing alternatives is under consideration. Any decision to eliminate or limit our offering of a product or service could involve the expenditure of capital, the realization of losses, a reduction in workforce, facility consolidation, and/or the elimination of revenues along with the associated costs, any of which could harm our financial condition and operating results. As a result of the foregoing, period-to-period comparisons of operating results are not a good indication of future performance. It is likely that operating results in some quarters will be below market expectations. In this event, the price of our common stock is likely to decline. PENDING LITIGATION COULD SERIOUSLY HARM OUR BUSINESS. Since February 2001, various of our shareholders have filed separate lawsuits against us, our independent accountants and certain of our current and former officers and directors. The uncertainty associated with substantial unresolved lawsuits could seriously harm our business and financial condition. In particular, the lawsuits could harm our relationships with existing customers and our ability to obtain new customers. The continued defense of the lawsuits also could result in the diversion of our management's time and attention away from business operations, which could harm our business. Negative developments with respect to the lawsuits could cause our stock price to decline significantly. In addition, although we are unable to determine the amount, if any, that we may be required to pay in connection with the resolution of these lawsuits by settlement or otherwise, the size of any such payment could seriously harm our financial condition. Most of the lawsuits could have been filed as purported class actions by persons who claim that they purchased our common stock during a purported class period. The complaints generally allege that we and the other named defendants made false or misleading statements of material fact about our financial statements, including our revenues, revenue recognition practices, business operations and prospects for the year 2000 and beyond. The complaints, in general, do not specify the amount of damages that plaintiffs seek. As a result, we are unable to estimate the possible range of damages that might be incurred as a result of the lawsuits. We have not set aside any financial reserves relating to potential damages associated with any of these lawsuits. LIMITATIONS OF OUR DIRECTOR AND OFFICER LIABILITY INSURANCE MAY HARM OUR BUSINESS. Our liability insurance for actions taken by officers and directors during the period from March 1999 to March 2001, the period during which events related to securities class action lawsuits against us and certain of our current and former executive officers are alleged to have occurred, provide only limited liability protection. If these policies do not adequately cover our expenses related to those lawsuits, our business and financial condition could be seriously harmed. Under California law, in connection with our charter documents and indemnification agreements we entered into with our executive officers and directors, we must indemnify our current and former officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by law. The indemnification covers any expenses and liabilities reasonably incurred in connection with the investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of legal proceedings. 32 33 THE PENDING SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION INVESTIGATION COULD HARM OUR BUSINESS. In February 2001, the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, issued a formal order of investigation of us and certain unidentified individuals associated with us. The investigation relates to non-specified accounting matters, financial reports, other public disclosures and trading activity in our stock. While we do not know the current status of the investigation or any possible actions that may be taken against us as a result, any negative developments with respect to the investigation or any SEC action against us could harm our business and cause our stock price to decline significantly. WE HAVE EXPERIENCED AND MAY CONTINUE TO EXPERIENCE TURNOVER OF SENIOR MANAGEMENT AND KEY PERSONNEL, WHICH COULD HARM OUR BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS. We are currently engaged in a search for a Chief Executive Officer. Our success depends on our ability to recruit and hire a Chief Executive Officer. If we are not able to successfully recruit a Chief Executive Officer our business will be seriously harmed. Additionally, the loss of the services of key personnel could harm our business results. Our success depends on our ability to recruit, retain and motivate highly skilled sales and marketing, operational, technical and managerial personnel. Competition for these people is intense, and we may not be able to successfully recruit, train or retain qualified personnel. In February 2001, we announced a series of changes in Critical Path management. David Hayden, our Chairman and a founder, was appointed our Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors and asked to take a greater role in the day-to-day operations of the company. A search for a new chief executive officer currently is ongoing, following the resignation of Doug Hickey from his position as Chief Executive Officer. Diana Whitehead, formerly our Vice President of Engineering and Operations, was promoted to President, following David Thatcher's resignation from Critical Path. Additionally, Mari Tangredi, formerly our Vice President of Corporate Development, has been named Executive Vice President of Business Development, Sales and Professional Services, following William Rinehart's resignation from Critical Path. It is possible that this high turnover at our senior management levels will continue and that other senior executive officers also will resign. Additionally, our management team has not worked together for a significant length of time and may not be able to work together effectively to successfully implement our strategy. If the management team is unable to accomplish our business objectives, our ability to grow our business could be severely impaired. We do not have long-term employment agreements with any of our executive officers and key personnel. In addition, we do not maintain key person life insurance on our employees and have no plans to do so. The loss of the services of one or more of our current senior executive officers or key personnel could harm our business and affect our ability to successfully implement our business objectives. WE WILL FACE TECHNICAL, OPERATIONAL AND STRATEGIC CHALLENGES THAT MAY PREVENT US FROM SUCCESSFULLY CONTINUING THE INTEGRATION OF ANY BUSINESSES WE HAVE ACQUIRED. Acquisitions involve risks related to the integration and management of acquired technology, operations and personnel. The integration of businesses that we have acquired into our business has been and will continue to be a complex, time consuming and expensive process, which may disrupt our business if not completed in a timely and efficient manner. We must operate as a combined organization utilizing, common information and communication systems, operating procedures, financial controls and human resources practices to be successful. In particular, we are currently evaluating, upgrading or replacing our financial information systems and establishing uniformity among the systems of the acquired businesses. We may encounter substantial difficulties, costs and delays involved in integrating the operations of our subsidiaries, including: - potential incompatibility of business cultures; - perceived adverse changes in business focus; and - potential failure in effectively managing our rapid growth in personnel. 33 34 Consequently, we may not be successful in integrating acquired businesses or technologies and may not achieve anticipated revenue and cost benefits. We also cannot guarantee that these acquisitions will result in sufficient revenues or earnings to justify our investment in, or expenses related to, these acquisitions or that any synergies will develop. If we are not successful in integrating acquired businesses or if expected earnings or synergies do not materialize, we could be forced to attempt to resell or cease operations of acquired businesses. In either event, we would likely incur significant expenses as well as non-cash charges to write-off acquired assets, which could seriously harm our financial condition and operating results. In this regard, in the fourth quarter of 2000, we incurred a $1.29 billion impairment charge to reduce the value of goodwill and other intangible assets related to the ten acquisitions we completed in 1999 and 2000 (see Note 22 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -- Quarterly Financial Data (Unaudited). Further, due in part to the significant underperformance of certain acquisitions relative to projections, we are currently reviewing the products and services we sell to customers, the locations in which we operate and the manner in which we go to market with our core product and service offerings. Ultimately, we may decide to eliminate certain acquired product or service offerings through termination, sale or other disposition or to sustain certain products and services at a minimum level where customer commitments prevent us from eliminating the offering altogether. Any decision to eliminate or limit our offering of an acquired product or service could involve the expenditure of capital, the realization of losses, a reduction in workforce, facility consolidation, and/or the elimination of revenues along with the associated costs, any of which could harm our financial condition and operating results. FURTHER ACQUISITIONS COULD RESULT IN DILUTION, OPERATING DIFFICULTIES AND OTHER CONSEQUENCES. Since January 1999, we have completed the acquisition of ten companies for an aggregate consideration consisting of cash, common stock and the assumption of stock options and warrants totaling approximately $1.8 billion. We may continue to acquire or invest in additional businesses, products, services and technologies that complement or augment our products and services offerings and customer base. We cannot guarantee that we will not engage in discussions with companies regarding strategic acquisitions, investments or partnerships. We would expect to pay for acquisitions or investments by issuing additional common stock, which would dilute current shareholders, or by using cash. In connection with an acquisition or investment, it may be necessary for us to raise additional funds through public or private financings. We cannot assure you that we will be able to raise additional funds at any particular point in the future or on favorable terms. In addition, we may be required to amortize significant amounts of goodwill and other intangible assets in connection with future acquisitions, which would materially increase operating expenses. IF WE FAIL TO IMPROVE SALES AND MARKETING ACTIVITIES, WE MAY BE UNABLE TO IMPROVE OUR BUSINESS. Our ability to increase revenues will depend on our ability to successfully recruit, train and retain sales and marketing personnel. Competition for qualified personnel is intense and we may not be able to hire and retain personnel with relevant experience. The complexity and implementation of our Internet messaging infrastructure products and services require highly trained sales and marketing personnel to educate prospective customers regarding the use and benefits of our services. Current and prospective customers, in turn, must be able to educate their end-users. Any delays or difficulties encountered in our staffing efforts would impair our ability to attract new customers and enhance our relationships with existing customers. This in turn would adversely impact the timing and extent of revenues. Because we have experienced high turnover in our sales force and the majority of our current sales and marketing personnel have recently joined us and have limited experience working together, our sales and marketing organizations may not be able to compete successfully against the sales and marketing organizations of our competitors. If we do not successfully operate our sales and marketing activities, our business could suffer and our stock price could decline. OUR RESERVES MAY BE INSUFFICIENT TO COVER BILLS WE ARE UNABLE TO COLLECT. We assume a certain level of credit risk with our customers in order to do business. Conditions affecting any of our customers could cause them to become unable or unwilling to pay us in a timely manner, or at all, for products or services we have already provided them. In the past, we have experienced significant collection 34 35 delays from certain customers, and we cannot predict whether we will continue to experience similar or more severe delays. In particular, a portion of our customers are suffering from the general weakness in the economy and among technology companies in particular. Although we have established reserves that we believe are sufficient to cover losses due to delays in or inability to pay, there can be no assurance that such reserves will be sufficient to cover such losses. If losses due to delays or inability to pay are greater than our reserves, it could harm our business, operating results and financial condition. IF WE DO NOT SUCCESSFULLY ADDRESS THE RISKS INHERENT IN THE EXPANSION OF OUR INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS, OUR BUSINESS COULD SUFFER. During 2000, we expanded our international operations significantly. We derived 38% of our revenue from international sales in 2000 compared to an insignificant amount in 1999. We intend to continue to operate in international markets and to spend significant financial and managerial resources to do so. If revenues from international operations do not exceed the expense of establishing and maintaining these operations, our business, financial condition and operating results will suffer. We have limited experience in international operations and may not be able to compete effectively in international markets. We face certain risks inherent in conducting business internationally, including: - Difficulties and costs of staffing and managing international operations; - Fluctuations in currency exchange rates and imposition of currency exchange controls; - Differing technology standards; - Difficulties in collecting accounts receivable and longer collection periods; - Unexpected changes in regulatory requirements including U.S. export restrictions on encryption technologies; - Political and economic instability; - Potentially adverse tax consequences; and - Reduced protection for intellectual property rights in some countries. Any of these factors could harm our international operations and, consequently, our business and consolidated operating results. Specifically, failure to successfully manage international growth could result in higher operating costs than anticipated, or could delay or preclude altogether our ability to generate revenues in key international markets. UNPLANNED SYSTEM INTERRUPTIONS AND CAPACITY CONSTRAINTS COULD REDUCE OUR ABILITY TO PROVIDE MESSAGING SERVICES AND COULD HARM OUR BUSINESS REPUTATION. Our customers have, in the past, experienced some interruptions in our messaging service. We believe that these interruptions will continue to occur from time to time. These interruptions are due to hardware failures, unsolicited bulk email, or "spam," attacks and operating system failures. Our business will suffer if we experience frequent or long system interruptions that result in the unavailability or reduced performance of systems or networks or reduce our ability to provide email services. We expect to experience occasional temporary capacity constraints due to sharply increased traffic, which may cause unanticipated system disruptions, slower response times, impaired quality and degradation in levels of customer service. If this were to continue to happen, our business and reputation could suffer dramatically. We have entered into messaging agreements with some customers that require minimum performance standards, including standards regarding the availability and response time of messaging services. If we fail to meet these standards, our customers could terminate their relationships with us and we could be subject to contractual monetary penalties. UNKNOWN SOFTWARE DEFECTS COULD DISRUPT OUR SERVICES AND HARM OUR BUSINESS AND REPUTATION. Our software products are inherently complex. Additionally, our service offerings depend on complex software, both internally developed and licensed from third parties. Complex software often contains defects, 35 36 particularly when first introduced or when new versions are released. We may not discover software defects in our products or that affect new or current services or enhancements until after they are deployed. Although we have not experienced any material software defects to date, it is possible that, despite testing, defects may occur in the software. These defects could cause service interruptions, which could damage our reputation or increase service costs, cause us to lose revenue, delay market acceptance or divert development resources, any of which could cause our business to suffer. WE MAY NEED ADDITIONAL CAPITAL AND RAISING ADDITIONAL CAPITAL MAY DILUTE EXISTING SHAREHOLDERS. We believe that existing capital resources will enable us to maintain current and planned operations for at least the next twelve months. However, we may be required to raise additional funds due to unforeseen circumstances. If capital requirements vary materially from those currently planned, we may require additional financing sooner than anticipated. Such financing may not be available in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us and may be dilutive to existing shareholders. THE TRADING PRICES AND VOLUMES OF OUR STOCK HAVE BEEN VOLATILE AND WE EXPECT THAT THIS VOLATILITY WILL CONTINUE. Our stock price and trading volumes have been highly volatile since our initial public offering on March 29, 1999. We expect that this volatility will continue in the future due to factors, including actual or anticipated fluctuations in results of operations and changes in or failure to meet market expectations. For example, in February 2001, after we announced a revision of our fourth quarter results of operations, our stock was suspended from trading on Nasdaq for a period of time, and subsequently the market price of our stock declined. In addition, the stock market itself is experiencing and may continue to experience significant price and volume fluctuations that have affected the market prices for the stocks of technology companies, particularly Internet companies. These broad market fluctuations may continue to result in a material decline in the market price of our common stock. WE DEPEND ON STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIPS AND OTHER SALES CHANNELS AND THE LOSS OF CERTAIN STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIPS COULD HARM OUR BUSINESS AND OUR REVENUES. We depend on strategic relationships to expand distribution channels and to undertake joint service and product development and marketing efforts. Our ability to increase revenues depends upon marketing services and products through new and existing strategic relationships. We depend on a broad acceptance of Internet messaging infrastructure services on the part of potential partners and acceptance of our company as the supplier for these Internet messaging infrastructure services. We also depend on joint marketing and product development through strategic relationships to achieve market acceptance and brand recognition. If we lose any strategic relationships, fail to renew these agreements or relationships or fail to develop new strategic relationships, our business will suffer. IF OUR SYSTEM SECURITY IS BREACHED, OUR BUSINESS AND REPUTATION COULD SUFFER. A fundamental requirement for online communications is the secure transmission of confidential information over public networks. Third parties may attempt to breach our security or that of our customers. If these attempts are successful, customers' confidential information, including customers' profiles, passwords, financial account information, credit card numbers or other personal information could be breached. We may be liable to our customers for any breach in security and a breach could harm our reputation. We rely on encryption technology licensed from third parties. Although we have implemented network security measures, our servers are vulnerable to computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins and similar disruptions, which could lead to interruptions, delays or loss of data. We may be required to expend significant capital and other resources to license encryption technology and additional technologies to protect against security breaches or to alleviate problems caused by any breach. Failure to prevent security breaches may harm our business and operating results. 36 37 WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO PROTECT INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND PROPRIETARY RIGHTS. We regard our copyrights, service marks, trademarks, trade secrets and similar intellectual property as critical to our success, and we rely on trademark and copyright law, trade secret protection and confidentiality and/or license agreements with employees, customers and partners to protect proprietary rights. Despite these precautions, unauthorized third parties may infringe or copy portions of our services or reverse engineer or obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. End user license provisions protecting against unauthorized use, copying, transfer and disclosure of the licensed program may be unenforceable under the laws of certain jurisdictions and foreign countries. The status of United States patent protection in the software industry is not well defined and will evolve as the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office grants additional patents. We have several patents pending in the United States and may seek additional patents in the future. We do not know if the patent application or any future patent application will be issued with the scope of the claims sought, if at all, or whether any patents received will be challenged or invalidated. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States. Our means of protecting proprietary rights in the United States or abroad may not be adequate and competitors may independently develop similar technology. Additionally, although we have not received notice of any other alleged patent infringement, we cannot be certain that our products do not infringe issued patents that may relate to our products. In addition, because patent applications in the United States are not publicly disclosed until the patent is issued, applications may have been filed which relate to our software products. WE MAY HAVE LIABILITY FOR INTERNET CONTENT AND WE MAY NOT HAVE ADEQUATE LIABILITY INSURANCE. As a provider of messaging services, we face potential liability for defamation, negligence, copyright, patent or trademark infringement and other claims based on the nature and content of the materials transmitted via our services. We do not and cannot screen all of the content generated by our users, and we could be exposed to liability with respect to this content. Furthermore, some foreign governments, such as Germany, have enforced laws and regulations related to content distributed over the Internet that are more strict than those currently in place in the United States. Although we carry general liability and umbrella liability insurance, our insurance may not cover claims of these types or may not be adequate to indemnify us for all liability that may be imposed. There is a risk that a single claim or multiple claims, if successfully asserted against us, could exceed the total of our coverage limits. There also is a risk that single claim or multiple claims asserted against us may not qualify for coverage under our insurance policies as a result of coverage exclusions that are contained within these policies. Should either of these risks occur, capital contributed by our shareholders may need to be used to settle claims. Any imposition of liability, particularly liability that is not covered by insurance or is in excess of insurance coverage could harm our reputation and business and operating results, or could result in the imposition of criminal penalties. OUR ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION AND BYLAWS CONTAIN PROVISIONS THAT COULD DELAY OR PREVENT A CHANGE IN CONTROL. Our articles of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that could delay or prevent a change in control of our company. These provisions could limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock. Some of these provisions: - Authorize the issuance of preferred stock that can be created and issued by the board of directors without prior shareholder approval, commonly referred to as "blank check" preferred stock, with rights senior to those of common stock; - Prohibit shareholder action by written consent; and - Establish advance notice requirements for submitting nominations for election to the board of directors and for proposing matters that can be acted upon by shareholders at a meeting. In March 2001, we adopted a shareholder rights plan or "poison pill." This plan could cause the acquisition of our company by a party not approved by our board of directors to be prohibitively expensive. 37 38 SUPPLEMENTAL PRO FORMA FINANCIAL DATA The following supplemental pro forma financial information presents Critical Path's condensed consolidated results of operations during 1998, 1999 and 2000, excluding the impact of certain special charges consisting of (i) amortization of intangible assets associated with purchase business combinations, (ii) accruals for employee retention bonuses associated with purchase business combinations, (iii) stock-based compensation associated with outstanding options and warrants, (iv) in-process research and development associated with purchase business combinations, (v) severance expense associated with workforce reductions, and (vi) impairment of long-lived assets. This supplemental presentation is for informational purposes, only, and is not intended to replace the consolidated operating results prepared and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

38 39 ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK As of December 31, 2000, the Company's investment portfolio consisted of available-for-sale securities, excluding those classified as cash equivalents, of $10.6 million (see Note 7 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -- Investments). These securities consist of strategic equity investments in corporate partners, certain of which are publicly traded and marketable and certain of which are privately held. These securities are subject to equity price risk. The Company has not attempted to reduce or eliminate its market exposure on these equity securities. During the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company determined that the impairment of certain of these investments was deemed to be other than temporary and recorded a write down of $23.6 million, consisting of $2.6 million in investments in marketable securities and $21.0 million in investments in non-marketable securities. For each 10% decline in market value of its available-for-sale equity securities from December 31, 2000, the Company's marketable securities would decline in value by $1.1 million. The Company's long-term obligations consist of the Company's $300.0 million five-year, 5.75% Convertible Subordinated Notes due April 2005, and certain fixed rate capital leases. Accordingly, an immediate 10% change in interest rates would not affect the Company's long-term obligations or the Company's results of operations. We do not attempt to reduce or eliminate our market exposure on these securities. A significant portion of our worldwide operations has a functional currency other than the United States dollar. Accordingly, we are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk inherent in our sales commitments, anticipated sales, and assets and liabilities of these operations. Fluctuations in exchange rates may harm our results of operations and could also result in exchange losses. The impact of future exchange rates fluctuations cannot be predicted adequately. To date, we have not sought to hedge the risks associated with fluctuations in exchange rates. Information relating to quantitative and qualitative disclosure about market risk is set forth in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations." ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTAL DATA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Reference is made to the Index of Consolidated Financial Statements which appears on page F-1 of this report. The Report of Independent Accountants, Consolidated Financial Statements, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and Financial Statement Schedule which are listed in the Index of Consolidated Financial Statements and which appear beginning on page F-2 of this report are incorporated into this Item 8. 39 40 SUPPLEMENTAL DATA The following table sets forth certain unaudited quarterly statements of operations data for each of Critical Path's quarters since inception. This information has been derived from Critical Path's consolidated unaudited financial statements, which, in management's opinion, have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements, and include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the information for the quarters presented. This information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of Critical Path and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this document. The operating results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for any future period.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements. F-6 55 CRITICAL PATH, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 -- THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Company Critical Path, Inc. was incorporated in California on February 19, 1997. In connection with the Annual Meeting of Shareholders held in June 2000, the shareholders approved the re-incorporation of Critical Path, Inc. in Delaware, as well as an increase in the authorized shares of Common Stock from 150 million to 500 million. In January 2001, the Company amended its articles of incorporation to increase the authorized shares to 505 million; however management has not yet re-incorporated the Company in Delaware. Critical Path, along with its subsidiaries (collectively referred to herein as the "Company") provides Internet messaging infrastructure solutions for corporate enterprises and service providers worldwide. Basis of presentation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Acquisitions The Company has accounted for all business combinations using the purchase method of accounting. Results of operations of the acquired businesses are included in the Company's financial results from the date of the acquisition. Net assets of the companies acquired are recorded at their fair value at the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of separately identified net assets acquired is included in intangible assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The fair value of separately identified intangible assets was determined based upon independent valuations using various valuation methodologies. Cash equivalents and restricted cash The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents consist primarily of deposits in money market funds. Restricted cash is composed of amounts held on deposit that are required as collateral for Company-issued credit cards. Investments Marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale as of each balance sheet date and are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, recorded in shareholders' equity. Realized gains or losses and charges for other than temporary declines in value, if any, on available-for-sale securities are reported in other income or expense as incurred. The equity method is used to account for investments in unconsolidated entities if the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over financial and operating matters, but does not have the ability to control such entities. The cost method is used to account for equity investments in unconsolidated entities where the Company does not have the ability to exercise significant influence over financial and operating matters. The Company periodically evaluates these investments for other-than-temporary impairment (Note 7 -- Investments). F-7 56 CRITICAL PATH, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) Concentration of credit risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and accounts receivable. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are deposited with financial institutions that management believes are creditworthy. While the Company's accounts receivable are derived from product and service transactions with geographically dispersed companies that operate in a number of horizontal markets, certain customers may be negatively impacted as a result of an economic downturn or other industry or market related conditions. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for potential credit losses. During 1998 and 1999, two Internet messaging customers accounted for a significant portion of the Company's net revenues. During 1998, these customers accounted for approximately, 62% and 30% of net revenues, and during 1999, these two customers accounted for approximately 15% and 4% of net revenues. Revenues generated from these two customers were insignificant in 2000. Fair value of financial instruments The Company's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts and notes receivable, accounts payable and capital lease obligations, are carried at cost, which approximates fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments. In addition, the Company holds $300.0 million in convertible subordinated notes, which are carried at cost (Note 11 -- Borrowings). Property and equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally three to five years, or the lease term, if applicable. Gains and losses on disposals are included in results of operations at amounts equal to the difference between the net book value of the disposed assets and the proceeds received upon disposal. Expenditures for replacements and improvements are capitalized, while expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Software costs for internal use The Company capitalizes costs related to software for internal use. These costs primarily include purchased software and qualifying external consulting fees and the amortization of these costs is included in general and administrative expenses. During 2000, approximately $2.1 million costs related to software for internal use were capitalized amortization of $226,000 was charged to expense. Software costs for products Development costs related to software products are expensed as incurred, as research and development costs, until technological feasibility of the product has been established. The Company has defined the establishment of technological feasibility as the completion of a working model. There is typically a relatively short time period between technological feasibility and product release, and the amount of costs incurred during such period is insignificant; as a result, capitalization of software development costs has been infrequent, however, during the fourth quarter of 2000, approximately $800,000 was capitalized. No amortization was recorded as the related products were not released in 2000 and there were no related amounts capitalized during 1999 or 1998. Intangible assets Identifiable intangible assets result from the application of the purchase method of accounting for the Company's acquisitions and are composed of the amounts allocated to the acquisition date fair value of F-8 57 CRITICAL PATH, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) assembled workforce, customer base and acquired technology. The excess of the purchase price paid over the fair value of tangible and identifiable intangible net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Intangible assets are stated net of accumulated amortization and were amortized on a straight-line basis over their expected useful lives ranging from two to eight years. As a result of the Company's fourth quarter 2000 impairment assessment of its long-lived assets, the Company determined that the remaining useful lives approximate two years. The Company periodically evaluates the reasonableness of the remaining useful lives of intangible assets based upon an analysis of current operating contributions and business plans. Valuation of long-lived assets The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles for impairment, when events and circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized whenever the evaluation demonstrates that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable (Note 9 -- Intangible Assets and Note 17 -- Impairment of Long-Lived Assets). Revenue recognition The Company recognizes revenue related to the sale of the Company's licensed software products, hosted messaging and collaboration services, professional services and post-contract customer support. License revenue License product revenue. License revenue is derived from perpetual and term licenses for the Company's messaging, directory, collaborative and enterprise application integration technologies. License revenues are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery of the licensed software to the customer has occurred and the collection of a fixed or determinable license fee is considered probable. The Company's revenue recognition policies require that revenue recognized from software arrangements be allocated to each element of the arrangement based on the fair values of the elements, such as software products, specified upgrades and enhancements, post contract customer support, installation, training or other services. The determination of fair value is based on Company-specific objective evidence. If objective evidence of fair value for each element of the arrangement does not exist, all revenue from the arrangement is deferred until such time that evidence of fair value of the undelivered elements exists or until all elements of the arrangement are delivered. The Company also receives license fees from resellers under arrangements that do not provide product return, exchange or upgrade rights. Revenue from reseller agreements may include a nonrefundable, advance royalty which is payable upon the signing of the contract and license fees based on the contracted value of the Company's products purchased by the reseller. Guaranteed license fees from resellers, where no right of return exists, are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery of the licensed software has occurred and the collection of a fixed or determinable license fee is considered probable. Non-guaranteed per-copy license fees from resellers are initially deferred and are recognized when they are reported as sold to end users by the reseller. Additionally, under the terms of the agreement, the Company is obligated to remit to the reseller any license fees collected by the Company from its other channel partners or direct sales force from their sale of the same product until completion of the term of the agreement. The Company will account for these transactions by recording revenue owed to the Company from these sales and recording a portion of the amount remitted to the reseller as a sales and marketing expense. Furthermore, in the event that the Company has a change in control or sells its rights to the software, the Company is obligated to pay the reseller an early termination penalty. F-9 58 CRITICAL PATH, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) Service revenue Hosted messaging services. The Company derives service revenues related to fees for services related to the Company's hosted messaging solutions. These are primarily based upon monthly contractual per unit rates for the services involved, which are recognized on a ratable monthly basis over the term of the contract beginning with the month in which service delivery starts. Amounts billed or received in advance of service delivery, including but not limited to branding and set-up fees, are initially deferred and subsequently recognized on a ratable monthly basis over the expected term of the relationship beginning with the month in which service delivery starts. Professional services. The Company derives service revenue from fees primarily related to training, installation and configuration services. The associated revenues are recognized in the period in which the services are performed. Customer support. The Company derives services revenue for fees from post-contract customer support agreements associated with product licenses. These fees are recognized ratably over the term of the support contract, generally one year. Advertising expense Advertising and promotion costs are generally expensed as incurred. Costs associated with the development of print or other media campaigns are deferred until the period that includes the first commercial use of the media campaign. Costs associated with industry trade shows and customer conferences are deferred until the period that includes the applicable trade show or conference. Advertising costs totaled $135,000, $414,000 and $1.3 million during 1998, 1999 and 2000, respectively. Research and development Research and development costs include expenses incurred by the Company to develop and enhance its portfolio of Internet messaging infrastructure solutions. Research and development costs, including acquired in-process research and development costs, are recognized as expense as incurred. Stock-based compensation The Company accounts for stock-based employee compensation arrangements in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and its related interpretations and complies with the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." Under APB No. 25, compensation expense for fixed options is based on the difference, if any, on the date of the grant, between the fair value of the Company's stock and the exercise price of the option. The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123. Income taxes Income taxes are computed using an asset and liability approach, which requires the recognition of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company's consolidated financial statements or tax returns. The measurement of current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on provisions of the enacted tax law; the effects of future changes in tax laws or rates are not anticipated. Deferred tax assets are reduced, if necessary, by the amount of any tax benefits that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized. F-10 59 CRITICAL PATH, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) Net loss per share Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common shareholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Shares subject to repurchase by the Company and shares held in escrow in connection with certain acquisition agreements, are excluded from the basic calculation. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of common and potential common shares outstanding during the period if the effect of each class of potential common shares is dilutive. Potential common shares include restricted Common Stock, shares held in escrow, and incremental Common and Preferred shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants and upon conversion of Series A and Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and the convertible notes. Comprehensive income The Company accounts for and reports comprehensive income or loss and its components in its financial statements. Comprehensive income or loss, as defined, includes the Company's net income or loss and all other changes in equity (net assets) during the period from non-owner sources. Foreign currency The Company considers the local currency to be the functional currency for predominantly all of its foreign operations. Assets and liabilities recorded in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange prevailing during the period. Translation adjustments are charged or credited to other comprehensive income, a component of shareholders' equity. Gains and losses on foreign currency transactions are included in non-operating income and expense. Segment and geographic information The Company does not currently manage its business in a manner that requires it to report financial results on a segment basis. The Company currently operates in one segment: Internet messaging infrastructure products and services and management uses one measure of profitability. (Note 20 -- Product and Geographic Information). Reclassifications Certain amounts previously reported have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Liquidity Since inception, the Company has incurred aggregate consolidated net losses of approximately $2.0 billion, which includes $1.3 billion related to long-lived asset impairment, $410.0 million related to non-cash charges associated with the Company's ten acquisitions, and $105.8 million related to non-cash stock-based expenses. The Company continues to face significant risks associated with successful execution of its business strategy. These risks include, but are not limited to, technology and product development, introduction and market acceptance of new products and services, changes in the marketplace, liquidity, competition from existing and new competitors which may enter the marketplace, retention of key personnel, and pending litigation. The Company requires sufficient capital to implement its strategy, to adequately address the appropriate target markets, generate sales demand for its current and planned future products and services. In addition, the Company's liquidity could be adversely impacted by the litigation referred to in Note 13 -- Commitments and Contingencies, although management believes the litigation will not have a material adverse impact on working capital through the end of 2001. F-11 60 CRITICAL PATH, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) Working capital at December 31, 2000 was $186.8 million, which included cash and cash equivalents of $216.5 million. Management believes based on the available cash balances, it has sufficient cash resources to fund operations through at least the end of 2001. On a long-term basis, however, the Company may require additional financing. There can be no assurance, however, that such financing would be available when needed, if at all, or on favorable terms and conditions. Recent accounting pronouncements In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements," (as amended in 2000 by SAB 101A and SAB 101B) which provides guidance on the recognition, presentation, and disclosure of revenue in financial statements filed with the SEC. SAB No. 101 outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for disclosures related to revenue recognition policies. Based on the SEC's timeline for implementing SAB 101, the Company was required to comply with the guidelines in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2000. Management believes that the impact of SAB No. 101 did not have a material effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company. In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". In June 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities -- Deferral of Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133". SFAS 133, as amended by SFAS 137, is effective for all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000, with earlier application encouraged. In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities -- an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133." SFAS 133, SFAS 137 and SFAS 138 establish accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as derivatives), and for hedging activities. SFAS 133, SFAS 137 and SFAS 138 are effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.

The pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of those that would have actually occurred had the acquisitions taken place at the beginning of the periods presented. NOTE 3 -- ACQUISITION-RELATED RETENTION BONUSES In connection with the acquisitions of dotOne, Amplitude, Xeti, FaxNet, ISOCOR, and docSpace, the Company established a retention bonus program in the aggregate amount of $20.7 million to provide incentives for certain former employees of these companies to continue their employment with the Company. Payments of bonuses to the listed employees occurs on the six-month or twelve-month anniversary date of the acquisition, depending on the program, unless the listed employees voluntarily terminate their employment with the Company prior to the respective acquisition's six or twelve month anniversary. A ratable share of the adjusted eligible bonus amount has been accrued and charged to compensation expense over the respective F-13 62 CRITICAL PATH, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) six- or twelve-month period commencing on the date the bonuses were granted. There were no acquisition-related retention bonuses granted during 1998. As of December 31, 1999, the aggregate, adjusted eligible bonus amount was $11.6 million and the ratable charge to compensation expense for the year then ended was $4.1 million. Based on the functions of the employees scheduled to receive acquisition bonuses in 1999, $520,000 of the compensation charge was allocated to cost of net revenues and the remaining $3.6 million was allocated to operating expenses. No bonuses were paid in 1999. As of December 31, 2000, the aggregate, adjusted eligible bonus amount was $4.9 million and the ratable charge to compensation expense for the year then ended was $9.3 million. Based on the functions of the employees scheduled to receive acquisition bonuses in 2000, $1.0 million of the compensation charge was allocated to cost of net revenues and the remaining $8.3 million was allocated to operating expenses. Additionally, during 2000, approximately $790,000 was recognized as employee severance expense, resulting from acceleration of the required one year vesting period (Note 4 -- Employee Severance Expenses) in the third quarter of 2000. During 2000, $11.6 million was paid in acquisition-related retention bonuses and $2.5 million was accrued as of the year then ended. In March of 2001, the Company announced an employee retention bonus program designed to provide incentives for current employees of Critical Path to continue their employment with the Company. Under this program, the Company anticipates it may pay cash retention bonuses of up to approximately $7.5 million, based on the Company's achievement of certain 2001 financial metrics. NOTE 4 -- EMPLOYEE SEVERANCE EXPENSES On July 19, 2000, the Company announced its plan to reduce its worldwide employee headcount by approximately 113 employees or 11%. This employee reduction plan was executed with the intent to realize various synergies gained through the nine acquisitions the Company completed in 1999 and the first half of 2000. During 2000, the Company recognized a charge for severance-related costs totaling $6.7 million, composed of $3.3 million in cash charges and $3.4 million in stock-based compensation expense, which resulted from the acceleration of certain employee stock options in connection with the Company's employee reduction plan. During 2000, the Company paid all amounts related to employee severance. NOTE 5 -- ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

In the event of a "Change in Control," as defined in Notes' Offering Circular, the Notes holders have the option of requiring the Company to repurchase any Notes held at a price of 100% of the principal amount of the Notes plus accrued interest to the date of repurchase. NOTE 12 -- INCOME TAXES The Company did not provide any current or deferred federal or state income tax provision or benefit for any of the periods presented because it has experienced operating losses since inception. The Company has provided current tax for foreign operations that are profitable. The Company has provided a full valuation allowance on the net deferred tax asset, consisting primarily of net operating loss carryforwards, because of uncertainty regarding its realizability. At December 31, 2000, the Company had approximately $274.0 million of federal and $211.0 million state net operating loss carryforwards available to offset future taxable income. Federal and state net operating loss carryforwards expire in varying amounts through 2020 for federal and 2006 for state purposes. Under the Tax Reform Act of 1986, the amounts of and benefits from net operating loss carryforwards may be impaired or limited in certain circumstances. Events which cause limitations in the amount of net operating losses that the Company may utilize in any one year include, but are not limited to, a cumulative ownership change of more than 50%, as defined, over a three year period. These carryforwards will begin to expire at various times starting in 2012 and 2005 for federal and state tax purposes, respectively. At December 31, 2000, the Company also had research and development credit carryforwards of approximately $4.0 million for federal and state purposes.

Equipment Lease Lines In April and May 1998, the Company entered into three separate financing agreements that provided for the acquisition of up to $6.5 million in equipment and the acquisition of up to $1.5 million in software and tenant improvements. These agreements limited acquisitions to $2.0 million in equipment acquisitions through April 30, 1999, $3.5 million in equipment acquisitions and $1.5 million in software and tenant improvements through May 1, 1999, and $1.0 million in equipment acquisitions through March 31, 2001, respectively. These amounts are payable over three-year periods, in monthly installments of principal and interest, with interest accruing at rates between 6.30% and 7.00% per annum. Approximately $1.0 million is collateralized by the related equipment acquired. In connection with two of the agreements, the Company issued warrants to purchase a total of 339,522 shares of Series A Preferred Stock at a purchase price of $0.72 per share. The Company estimated the fair value of these warrants at date of issuance totaled approximately $186,000 that is being amortized as interest expense over the term of the related lease obligation. Service Level Agreements Net revenues are derived from contractual relationships that typically have one to three year terms. Certain agreements require minimum performance standards regarding the availability and response time of email services. If these standards are not met, such contracts are subject to termination and the Company could be subject to monetary penalties. Contingencies The Company has certain obligations relating to a master distributor agreement with a reseller. Refer to Note 1 -- The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, License Revenue. Litigation and Investigations (Also see Note 22 -- Quarterly Financial Data (Unaudited)) Securities Class Actions. Beginning on February 2, 2001, a number of securities class action complaints were filed against the Company, certain of its current and former officers and directors and its independent accountants, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. The complaints have been filed as purported class actions by individuals who allege that they purchased the Company's Common Stock during a purported class period; the alleged class periods vary among the complaints and are in the F-20 69 CRITICAL PATH, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) process of being consolidated into a single action. The complaints generally allege that, in differing periods from April 2000 to February 1, 2001, the Company and other named defendants made false or misleading statements of material fact about the Company's financial statements, including its revenues, revenue recognition policies, business operations and prospects for the year 2000 and beyond. The complaints seek an unspecified amount in damages on behalf of persons who purchased the Company's Common Stock during certain periods. Derivative Actions. Beginning on February 5, 2001, the Company has been named as a nominal defendant in a number of derivative actions, purportedly brought on its behalf, filed in the Superior Court of the State of California. The derivative complaints allege that certain of its current and former officers and directors breached their fiduciary duties to the Company, were unjustly enriched by their sales of the Company's Common Stock, engaged in insider trading in violation of California law or published false financial information in violation of California law. The plaintiffs seek unspecified damages on the Company's behalf from each of the defendants. Because of the nature of derivative litigation, any recovery in the action would inure to the Company's benefit. Securities and Exchange Commission Investigation In February 2001, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") issued a formal order of investigation of the Company and certain unidentified individuals associated with the Company with respect to non-specified accounting matters, financial reports, other public disclosures and trading activity in the Company's securities. While the Company does not know the current status of the investigation or any possible actions that may be taken against the Company as a result, any SEC action against us could harm the Company's business. The uncertainty associated with substantial unresolved lawsuits and the SEC investigation could seriously harm the Company's business and financial condition. In particular, the lawsuits or the investigation could harm its relationships with existing customers and its ability to obtain new customers. The continued defense of the lawsuits and conduct of the investigation could also result in the diversion of management's time and attention away from business operations, which could harm the Company's business. Negative developments with respect to the lawsuits or the investigation could cause the Company's stock price to decline significantly. In addition, although the Company is unable to determine the amount, if any, that it may be required to pay in connection with the resolution of these lawsuits or the investigation by settlement or otherwise, the size of any such payment could seriously harm the Company's financial condition. NOTE 14 -- MINORITY INTEREST IN SUBSIDIARY As of December 31, 2000, the Company owned a 72.87% interest in CP Italia, a consolidated subsidiary, which was acquired in connection with the acquisition of ISOCOR. For the year ended December 31, 2000, the minority interest in net income of CP Italia amounted to $649,000. In March 2001, the outstanding 27.13% interest in CP Italia was acquired for approximately $4.2 million. F-21 70 CRITICAL PATH, INC.

Incorporation and Authorized Capital The Company's Articles of Incorporation, as amended, authorize the Company to issue 500 million shares of Common Stock at $0.001 par value, and 5 million shares of Preferred Stock, at $0.001 par value. The holders of Preferred Stock have various voting and dividend rights as well as preferences in the event of liquidation. Preferred Stock In January 1999, the Company completed the second round of the Series B Preferred Stock financing through the issuance of 2,772,708 shares at $4.26 per share for net proceeds of approximately $10,749,000. In connection with this financing, the Company issued warrants to purchase 51,364 shares of Series B Preferred Stock at $4.26 per share to the placement agent. Prior to the closing of the Company's initial public offering, the Series B Preferred Stock placement agent sold back to the Company at $4.26 per share an aggregate of 53,293 shares held by the placement agent or its affiliates. As of the closing of the Company's initial public offering, all of the Series B Preferred Stock outstanding was converted into an aggregate of 19,912,000 shares of Common Stock at a conversion ratio of 1:1. Common Stock In January 1999, the Company sold 1,090,909 shares of Common Stock at a price of $2.20 per share to a customer that also agreed to provide marketing related services. In connection with the transactions, the Company recognized a charge totaling $2.2 million that was attributed to sales and marketing expense over the one-year term of the agreement. On March 29, 1999, the Company completed its initial public offering of 5,175,000 shares of Common Stock (including the exercise of the underwriters over allotment option) and realized net proceeds of $114.1 million. On June 2, 1999, the Company completed a follow-on public offering of 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock and realized net proceeds of $140.7 million. F-22 71 CRITICAL PATH, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) Warrants ICQ In January 1999, the Company entered into an agreement with ICQ, Inc., a subsidiary of AOL Time Warner, pursuant to which the Company provides email hosting services that are integrated with ICQ's instant messaging service provided to ICQ's customers. As part of the agreement, ICQ agreed to provide sub-branded advertising for the Company in exchange for a warrant to purchase 2,442,766 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, issuable upon attainment of each of five milestones. As of April 9, 2000, all five milestones had been attained. Using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and assuming a term of seven years and expected volatility of 90%, the final revised aggregate fair value of all vested warrants was $93.8 million, which was being amortized to advertising expense using the straight-line method over four years. Aggregate charges to stock-based expenses of $27.4 million and $19.5 million were recorded during 1999 and 2000, respectively, related to these warrants. There were no related stock-based expenses recorded in 1998. In connection with the Company's review of its fourth quarter financial results, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $16.8 million. See also Note 17 -- Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. The adjusted fair value at December 31, 2000, of approximately $30.1 million will be amortized over the remaining benefit period of three years. On September 8, 2000, ICQ executed a net exercise of warrants to purchase 766,674 shares related to the attainment of the first of five milestones (the related gross number of warrants to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock were 814,254 shares). On September 18, 2000, ICQ executed a net exercise of warrants to purchase 1,441,067 shares related to the attainment of the remaining four milestones (the related gross number of warrants to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock were 1,628,512 shares). Qwest Communications Corporation In October 1999, the Company entered into an agreement with Qwest Communications Corporation, a telecommunications company, pursuant to which the Company will provide email hosting services to Qwest's customers. As part of the agreement, Qwest agreed to provide sub-branded advertising for Critical Path in exchange for a warrant to purchase up to a maximum of 3,534,540 shares of Common Stock upon attainment of each of six milestones. The following table summarizes the shares underlying each milestone and the related exercise price:
REGISTERED NO. SHARES OF SUB-BRANDED UNDERLYING EXERCISE EMAIL BOXES WARRANTS PRICE -------------- ---------- -------- Milestone 1.......................... Upon Execution 589,090 $41.581 Milestone 2.......................... 400,000 589,090 44.581 Milestone 3.......................... 800,000 589,090 47.581 Milestone 4.......................... 1,200,000 589,090 50.581 Milestone 5.......................... 1,600,000 589,090 53.581 Milestone 6.......................... 2,000,000 589,090 56.581 --------- Total...................... 3,534,540 =========
The shares underlying those milestones for which achievement is considered probable are remeasured at each subsequent reporting date, beginning at December 31, 1999, until each sub-branded Qwest mailbox registration threshold is achieved and the related warrant shares vest, at which time the fair value attributable to that tranche of the warrant is fixed. In the event such remeasurement results in increases or decreases from the initial fair value, which could be substantial, these increases or decreases will be recognized immediately, if the fair value of the shares underlying the milestone has been previously recognized, or over the remaining term, if not. F-23 72 CRITICAL PATH, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) In October 1999, the first of the six milestones had been attained, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and assuming a term of 5 years and expected volatility of 90%, the final revised aggregate fair value of the vested warrants associated with the first milestone approximated $22.2 million, which is being amortized to advertising expense using the straight-line method over three years. The Company expects that future changes in the trading price of the Company's Common Stock at the end of each quarter, and at the time certain milestones are considered probable and achieved, may cause additional substantial changes in the ultimate amount of the related stock-based charges. As of December 31, 2000, only the first of the six milestones had been attained. None of the remaining milestones are considered probable and as a result, the fair value of the warrants relating to the shares underlying the second through sixth milestones has not been recognized. During 1999 and 2000, $1.5 million and $7.4 million, respectively, was charged to stock-based expense related to the vested warrants. In connection with the Company's review of its fourth quarter financial results, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $4.8 million. See also Note 17 -- Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. The adjusted fair value at December 31, 2000, of approximately $8.6 million will be amortized over the remaining benefit period of two years. Worldsport Network Ltd. In December 1999, the Company entered into an agreement with Worldsport Network Ltd., the sole and exclusive provider of Internet solutions for the General Association of International Sports Federations ("GAISF") and a majority of the international federations it recognizes. Under the terms of the agreement, Worldsport offers the Company's web-based email and calendaring services to the entire GAISF network and its members. As part of the agreement, Worldsport agreed to provide sub-branded advertising for the Company in exchange for warrants to purchase up to a 1.25% equity interest in the Company on a fully diluted basis upon attainment of each of five milestones based on the number of email boxes for which Worldsport registers and provides sub-branding. The warrants are exercisable for five years after becoming vested. Any warrants not vested within five years of the date of the agreement will be cancelled. The Company believes that this agreement could have a significant current and potential future impact on the Company's results of operations. However, Worldsport has filed for bankruptcy during 2000 and the Company now believes the warrants will ultimately expire unvested and unexercised. Lessor Warrant In December 1999, the Company entered into an agreement with one of its lessors, in connection with an office lease, pursuant to which the lessor is entitled to purchase up to a maximum of 25,000 shares of Common Stock. The warrants may be exercised beginning January 1, 2000 through December 20, 2006 at a price of $90.00 per share. The warrants vest at the beginning of each month on a straight-line basis in the amount of 521 shares per month. Using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and assuming a term of six years and expected volatility of 90%, the fair value of the warrants on the effective date of the agreement approximated $2.0 million, which is being amortized to general and administrative expenses using the straight-line method over ten years beginning January 2000. During 2000, approximately $200,000 was charged to stock-based expense related to the vested warrants. Telco In January 2000, docSpace entered into an agreement with a major telecommunications company ("Telco") pursuant to which docSpace would provide secure messaging services to the Telco's customers. As part of the agreement, Telco agreed to provide marketing, publicity, and promotional services to docSpace. As a result of the completion of the Company's acquisition of docSpace, the Company assumed warrants that F-24 73 CRITICAL PATH, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) allowed Telco to purchase up to a maximum of 349,123 shares of Common Stock upon attainment of each of three milestones. The Company believes that this agreement could have a significant current and potential future impact on the Company's results of operations as a result of stock-based charges. Subsequent to the acquisition, the Company entered into discussions with Telco to modify their relationship. Accordingly, the vesting provisions of the proposed agreement were modified to reflect the requirements of the new relationship. As of December 31, 2000, none of the vesting milestones had been attained; however, the Company believes that all shares underlying these warrants are probable of issuance. As a result, the shares underlying these milestones were remeasured using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, the December 31, 2000 closing price of the Company's Common Stock of $30.75 and assuming a term of seven years and expected volatility of 128%, resulting in a revised fair value of the warrants of $9.6 million. The fair value of the warrants will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the greater of the term of the contract or the expected period of benefit of the strategic relationship. During 2000, no amounts were recognized as stock-based expense related to these warrants. The Company expects that future changes in the trading price of the Company's Common Stock at the end of each quarter, and at the time certain milestones are achieved, will cause additional substantial changes in the ultimate amount of the related stock-based charges. Stock Purchase Rights In February 1998, the Company entered into stock purchase agreements with three founders and sold 3,863,635 shares of the Company's Common Stock at $0.02 per share. Under the terms of the stock purchase agreements, the Company has the right to purchase the shares of Common Stock at the original issue price in the event any one of the founders ceases to be an employee of the Company. These repurchase rights lapse by 25% on the first anniversary of the vesting start date and ratably each month thereafter for 36 months. Repurchase rights with respect to 50% of the then unvested shares of Common Stock lapsed on the closing date of the Company's initial public offering. On September 1, 1999, 80,508 shares were repurchased in connection with the early termination of one of the founders. At December 31, 2000, 198,864 of these shares of Common Stock were subject to repurchase rights. In connection with the issuance of these shares, the Company recorded unearned compensation of $1,306,000 that is being recognized over the periods in which the Company's repurchase rights lapse. During 1998, 1999 and 2000, $344,000, $428,000 and $428,000, respectively, were recognized in related compensation expense. In October 1998, an officer exercised stock options to purchase 1,274,687 shares of the Company's Common Stock at a price of $0.84 per share. Under the terms of the option, the Company has the right to purchase the unvested shares of Common Stock at the original issue price in the event the officer ceases to be an employee of the Company. The repurchase rights lapse ratably each month for 48 months. At December 31, 1999 and 2000, 902,903 and 584,231 of these shares of Common Stock were subject to repurchase rights, respectively. In connection with the option grant preceding this transaction, the Company recognized unearned compensation totaling $3.8 million that is included in the aggregate unearned compensation charges discussed below. In February 2001, this officer's employment was terminated and the unvested portion of these stock options was accelerated, which will result in a charge to stock-based expenses in 2001. Employee Stock Purchase Plan During 1999, the Board of Directors adopted the 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP"). The Company has authorized 600,000 shares for issuance. The number of shares of Common Stock reserved under the ESPP may be increased annually on January 1 of each year beginning in 2000 by an amount equal to 1% of the Company's issued and outstanding Common Stock. However, such increases are limited to 1,000,000 F-25 74 CRITICAL PATH, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) additional shares. Employees generally will be eligible to participate in the ESPP if the Company customarily employs them for more than 20 hours per week and more than five months in a calendar year and are not 5% or greater shareholders. Under the ESPP, eligible employees may select a rate of payroll deduction up to 15% of their compensation subject to certain maximum purchase limitations. The ESPP was implemented in a series of overlapping twenty-four month offering periods beginning on the effective date of the Company's initial public offering with subsequent offering periods beginning on the first trading day on or after May 1 and November 1 of each year. Purchases will occur on each April 30 and October 31 (the "Purchase Dates") during each participation period. Under the ESPP, eligible employees have the opportunity to purchase shares of Common Stock at a purchase price equal to 85% of the fair market value per share of Common Stock on either the start date of the offering period or the date on which the option is exercised, whichever is less. If the fair market value of the Common Stock on any Purchase Date (other than the final Purchase Date) is lower than the fair market value on the start date of that offering period, then all participants in that offering period will be automatically withdrawn from such offering period and re-enrolled in the offering period immediately following. Stock purchases under the ESPP in 1999 and 2000 were 42,495 and 112,665, respectively, at a price of $20.40 in 1999 and between $20.40 and $40.27 per share in 2000. As of December 31, 2000, 914,212 shares were available under the ESPP for future issuance. Stock Options During 1998 and 1999, the Company's Board of Directors adopted the 1998 Stock Option Plan and the 1999 Stock Option Plan (together, the "Option Plans"). The Option Plans provide for the granting of up to 31,788,741 stock options to employees and consultants of the Company. Options granted under the Plan may be either incentive stock options ("ISOs") or nonqualified stock options ("NSOs"). ISOs may be granted only to Company employees (including officers and directors). NSOs may be granted to Company employees and consultants. The Company has, in connection with the acquisition of various companies, assumed the stock option plans of each acquired company. At December 31, 1999 and 2000, a total of 830,672 and 1,598,793 shares, respectively, of the Company's Common Stock were reserved for outstanding shares issued under the assumed plans, and the related options are included in the table below. Options under all of the Company's stock option plans may be granted for periods of up to ten years and at prices no less than 85% of the estimated fair value of the shares on the date of grant as determined by the Board of Directors, provided, however, that (i) the exercise price of an ISO may not be less than 100% of the estimated fair value of the shares on the date of grant, and (ii) the exercise price of an ISO granted to a 10% shareholder may not be less than 110% of the estimated fair value of the shares on the date of grant. Options generally vest 25% per year and are exercisable for a maximum period of ten years from the date of grant. A summary of the status of the Company's stock option plans as of December 31, 1999, and 2000, and changes during the periods ending on those dates is presented below:

The compensation cost associated with the Company's stock-based compensation plans, determined using the minimum value method prescribed by SFAS No. 123, did not result in a material difference from the reported net loss during 1998. Had compensation cost been recognized based on the fair value at the date of grant for options granted during 1999 and 2000, the pro forma amounts of the Company's net loss and net loss per share would have been as follows:

The Company calculated the minimum value and the fair value of each option grant on the date of grant during 1999 and 2000, respectively, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model as prescribed by SFAS No. 123 using the following assumptions:

Unearned stock-based compensation In connection with certain stock option grants and Common Stock issuances to employees, directors and advisors during 1998 and 1999, the Company recognized unearned compensation totaling $19.9 million and $22.3 million, respectively, which is being amortized over the vesting periods of the related options. Amortization expense recognized during 1998, 1999, and 2000 totaled approximately $2.5 million, $17.6 million and $12.5 million, respectively. During 1999, the Company incurred a stock-based charge of approximately $2.0 million in connection with a severance agreement for a terminated employee. This expense was charged to cost of net revenues. F-27 76 CRITICAL PATH, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) During 2000, the Company incurred stock-based charges of approximately $5.7 million in connection with certain severance agreements for terminated employees. Approximately $3.4 million of this charge was included in employee severance expense in connection with the Company's plan to reduce worldwide headcount (Note 4 -- Employee Severance Expenses) and the remaining $2.3 million was included in stock-based expenses. In March 2001, the Company granted employee stock options with exercise prices below market value on the date of grant in connection with a program designed to provide incentives for current employees of the Company to continue their employment. The Company issued to certain existing employees approximately 13.5 million stock options vesting monthly over a 2-year period, which are expected to result in approximately $16.1 million in additional unearned compensation.

There were no tax effects allocated to any components of other comprehensive income during 1999 and 2000 (Note 12 -- Income Taxes). NOTE 17 -- IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS As part of the Company's review of its fourth quarter financial results, an impairment assessment of its long-lived assets was performed. The assessment was performed primarily due to the significant decline in the Company's stock price, the net book value of assets significantly exceeding the Company's market capitalization, the significant underperformance of certain acquisitions relative to projections, the overall decline in industry growth rates, and the Company's lower fourth quarter actual and projected 2001 operating results compared to earlier forecasts. As a result, the Company recorded a $1.3 billion impairment charge to reduce goodwill and other intangible assets and deferred costs associated with its ICQ and Qwest relationships in the fourth quarter of 2000 to their estimated fair values. The estimates of fair values were based upon the discounted estimated cash flows of the Company for the succeeding three years using a discount rate of 25% and an estimated terminal value. The assumptions supporting the estimated cash flows, including the discount rate and an estimated terminal value, reflects management's best estimates. The discount rate was primarily based upon the weighted average cost of capital for comparable companies. NOTE 18 -- DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN The Company maintains a defined contribution plan, the Critical Path 401(k) Plan, under which its employees are eligible to participate. Participants may make voluntary contributions based on a percentage of their compensation, within certain limitations. Under the plan, discretionary contributions may be made by the Company. Participants are fully vested in the Company's contributions after a specified number of years of service, as defined under the plan. No contributions have been made by the Company since its inception. F-28 77 CRITICAL PATH, INC.

NOTE 21 -- SUBSEQUENT EVENTS Shareholder Rights Plan. In March 2001, the Board of Directors adopted a Shareholder Rights Plan. Under this plan, certain Rights will be distributed as a dividend at the rate of one Right for each share of the Company's Common Stock held by shareholders of record as of the close of business on May 15, 2001. The Rights Plan is designed to prevent an acquirer from gaining control of the Company without offering a fair and adequate price and terms to all of the Company's shareholders. The Rights Plan is intended to increase the Company's ability to negotiate with potential acquiring companies to maximize shareholder value and is not intended to interfere with takeover offers or other strategic alternatives that the Company's Board of Directors believes are in the shareholders' best interests. The Rights Plan was not adopted in response to any attempt to acquire the company. NOTE 22 -- QUARTERLY FINANCIAL DATA (UNAUDITED) On January 30, 2001, the Company's financial management first became aware that certain software licensing contracts that had been recorded as revenue during the fourth quarter of 2000 appeared to be questionable. An unscheduled meeting of the Company's Board of Directors was convened on February 1, 2001, and following that meeting the Company issued a press release dated February 2, 2001 announcing that (a) it believed that its previously announced unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter of 2000 may have been materially misstated, (b) the Board of Directors had formed a special committee to conduct an investigation into the matter, and (c) the Company's president and vice president of worldwide sales had been placed on administrative leave related to the matter. On February 9, 2001, the Company issued a press release announcing management changes, including (a) the return to management of its chairman and a founder, (b) the promotion to president of its senior vice president of engineering and operations, (c) the resignation of its chief executive officer, and (d) the resignation of its president and vice president of worldwide sales who had been placed on administrative leave. On February 15, 2001, the Company announced that, based on the preliminary results of the investigation being conducted by the special committee of the Board of Directors, it would revise its previously announced unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter of 2000 and was reviewing certain specific transactions that were reported as revenue during the third quarter of 2000 based on new facts. The Company also announced that these unaudited results were preliminary and that further adjustments might need to be made. After the Company's February 15, 2001 announcement, the Company became aware of additional transactions previously reported as revenue during the third and fourth quarters of 2000 that should not have been recorded as revenue or that should have been recorded as revenue in later periods. F-30 79 CRITICAL PATH, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) Adjustments to the Company's reported third quarter results for the year 2000 were as follows (in thousands):
2000 -------------- THIRD QUARTER -------------- (IN THOUSANDS) Matters impacting revenues: - Software licensing and hosted messaging transactions for which revenues were recognized and it was subsequently determined that revenues, if any, should have been recognized in a later quarter........................... $(3,948) - Software licensing transactions for which no revenue will be recognized primarily as a result of re-evaluating the judgment that management used in the application of accounting principles to these transactions............................................ (5,685) ------- Total revenue decrease...................................... (9,633) ------- Matter impacting costs and expenses: - Miscellaneous selling, general and administrative expense adjustments..................................... 1,565 ------- Total net loss increase..................................... $(8,068) =======
As a result of the materially restated revenue for the third quarter of 2000 and the materially revised revenue for the fourth quarter of 2000, as well as the subsequent significant decline in the Company's Common Stock price, management determined that it was appropriate to re-evaluate whether the carrying values of its long-lived assets, primarily goodwill and other intangible assets including the deferred costs associated with its ICQ and Qwest relationships, were impaired as of December 31, 2000. A discounted cash flow analysis indicated the Company's long-lived assets were impaired and, as a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge aggregating $1.31 billion in the fourth quarter of 2000. In addition, in the fourth quarter of 2000 the Company determined that certain of its investments had suffered an other-than-temporary decline in value and accordingly recognized a loss of $23.6 million on the write-down of those investments to their fair value.
