Moderator      Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for standing by. Welcome to the
               Lionbridge acquisition conference call. All lines are now in a


               listen only mode, but they will be doing a question and answer
               session later.

               I would now like to turn the conference over to Cathy Maloney.
               Please go ahead.

C. Maloney     Thank you. Welcome to the call, everyone. I'm obliged to tell you
               that during this call we will make certain statements that may be
               considered to be forward-looking statements under Federal
               Securities law and which involve risks and uncertainties. In
               particular, these forward-looking statements include those
               related to the timing and benefits of the proposed acquisition
               and future financial and operating results. Please refer to
               Lionbridge's SEC filings for a more detailed discussion of these
               risk factors.

               Now I will turn the call over to Rory Cowan.

R. Cowan       Thank you, Cathy. Hello, everyone. Thank you for joining us at
               such short notice. What I'd like to do is talk to you about the
               acquisition of Data Dimensions, an agreement that we have reached
               earlier today. For those of you that are sort of taking notes,
               just give you a general structure of how we're going to present.

               We have a section that we'll call The Company, which will give
               you a sense of what Data Dimensions is, because I think as you
               look at Data Dimensions' current Web site and filings, there has
               been a lot of activity in that company. So we will give you a
               description of what we are actually acquiring. We are acquiring
               the whole company, but we'll have the reason for it. Then, Steve
               Lifshatz will talk about, the transaction. He will give you
               details of the structure of the transaction, timing and all sorts
               of things. Then, we will close with the rationale, which is what
               we think will happen with the two businesses when we put the Data
               Dimensions testing business together with our Veritest division.
               Then we will open it up for questions.

               So there are four components to the call: a description of the
               company, nature of the transaction, the rationale and our plan
               for the business and then a Q&A period. So we will charge ahead.

               Data Dimensions, of course, many of you are aware, is an
               international information company, an IT services company. It was
               founded in 1968. DDI developed an early lead in Y2K consulting
               and compliance and then developed a strong testing business as
               well. Then, when the clock rolled over, there was, of


               course, an expectation that there would be a tail of the Y2K
               business, but many of you that have been involved in it know that
               tail diminished quite quickly. So the management of Data
               Dimensions did a Yeoman's job in sort of refocusing the business
               and redirecting all of the personnel there.

               Throughout that time period, also, they decided to rationalize
               the portfolio businesses and focused on selling some businesses
               and shutting some other businesses down. In fact, you will see on
               their Web site, which you are probably looking at now, they sold
               the business in Los Angeles to Axiom. So that is tied up.

               The last piece of the business was a testing, an outsource
               testing business, and an ADM, or application development and
               maintenance business that was really supporting all of the
               corporate over head that was designed for much larger business.
               So by buying all of Data Dimensions' outstanding stock, we will
               then be acquiring the testing business.

               The business is headquartered in Bellevue, Washington. They have
               offices in Columbia, Maryland, Boise, Idaho and San Mateo,
               California, those are test labs; in addition, activities in
               Galway Ireland and in the UK. So there is a very nice fit with
               our businesses. DDI also has sort of four main services that they
               offer, which is QA Consulting Services, which will be a very nice
               complement for us. These are individuals who go on site and work
               with clients to develop test plans, test beds and lead test
               organizations. So on site consulting with corporate and IT
               company development organizations.

               Then they have a training operation where they actually train for
               test planning on site and at the DDI facility in Bellevue, so
               that's another activity they have. Then the ADM business, which
               is application development and maintenance services, which is a
               business that they do sort of custom programming for corporate
               clients in the financial sector and the insurance sector as well;
               that is sales here in the US and have a delivery mechanism or a
               programming mechanism in Ireland.

               Then lastly, of course, software testing, which is our main
               interest but the entire business really fits very nicely with us.
               Where we're organized with certification and contract testing,
               DDI has practices developed around certain areas of activity. So
               for example, wireless would be a special practice that they have
               developed there.


               The largest clients for DDI are Microsoft, Novell, Hewlett
               Packard and AT&T Wireless. Fortunately, all of these are
               customers of both companies, so we are looking forward to
               enhancing our relationships with these key technology leaders.

               Our estimated 2001 revenue for DDI will be that sort of $25
               million to $30 million range. As you look at their Web site,
               theirs would imply a larger run rate. But once you sort through
               contracts on both sides, duplicate pipeline and also, sort of
               natural diminution of momentum that happens following a
               transaction as you put two businesses together we're feeling more
               comfortable at the $25 million to $30 million level. That's about
               equal to last year's revenue run rate. That may appear to be a
               flat business, but actually is not. They are executing very well,
               because about 25% to 30% of their business, as far as we can
               tell, last year was with dot-coms. So the management here has
               quickly put in the clutch, shifted, refocused and are picking
               back up the lost business, are filling up the labs with business
               that was dot-com oriented with more corporate oriented
               activities. So we're feeling really very, very positive about the
               sales traction that they're getting as they refocus the business.

               I think that's our overview of the business. Steve, I will turn
               it over to you to talk about the transaction.

S. Lifshatz    Thank you, Rory. Just very quickly, we'll be purchasing all of
               the stock of DDI for approximately $15 million in value of
               Lionbridge stock, so this is a stock transaction. We'll be using
               the purchase accounting method here. We expect that the
               transaction will close during the second fiscal quarter, so the
               second calendar quarter of this year. We're also looking for the
               transaction to be accretive, and that will be after the
               elimination of redundancies and leveraging of our mutual
               infrastructures.

               As far as shares, we're expecting to be issuing approximately
               2.683 million shares after the conversion, so that would render a
               conversion ratio of approximately 0.19 shares of Lionbridge stock
               for each DDI stock.

               We also expect to be incurring a restructuring charge under that
               $4.5 million to $5.5 million based on activities that we'll be
               doing on both sides. I think combined transaction costs would be
               about $1.5 million. That's combined for both businesses. We
               expect to see ongoing synergies in the range of $2.5 million to
               $4 million.


R. Cowan       Great. Thank you, Steve. As you can see from looking at putting
               these two businesses together, we have some work ahead of us. But
               the cost synergies between the two businesses are really very
               powerful and I think that much of the savings is really devoted
               to the corporate architecture that was surrounding a much larger
               public company. So we are quite enthusiastic about working with
               all of the DDI people and their testing business. There will be a
               lot of support operations that will join us and support our
               Veritest operation as well.

               So we'll now move to the third part of the call, which is the
               rationale for the transaction. We will end up then with a revenue
               run rate of about a $55 million to $60 million business in the
               testing services arena. That is both the certification world and
               the test practices that will be evolving jointly, the wireless
               activities, the stress testing, performance testing, scalability
               testing and other things.

               We will brand the business as Veritest. It will be the Veritest
               service. It will be trading under the Veritest name because we
               are getting really great traction with that as a result of our
               certification programs.

               We expect that the business will leave the fourth quarter with an
               EBIT DA of about 9% to 11%. That seems to be putting the two
               together. We feel pretty comfortable with those targets. We'll
               have consolidated head counts of about 400 to 450 people, maybe
               475, we'll have to work a lot of that through just to see what
               happens putting the two businesses together. That's just in the
               testing arena, of course.

               What's also nice about this business is that there are very few
               overlapping facilities. So we don't have much of the redundancy
               activity that would go along with consolidating two facilities
               and going through that whole process. So it increases the
               footprint very nicely.

               As I mentioned, we will develop expertise in new verticals, the
               wireless and the Web worlds, as well as a larger share of the
               printer and peripheral inter-operability activity, because as the
               world begins to atomize with various technologies, it seems as if
               this interoperability thing is increasingly important. Now you
               layer that in the US, but then you put that with our global
               infrastructure and different language infrastructures and
               different language operating systems, interoperability is
               increasingly important.


               The scale of the business, we believe we will be the largest
               outsource testing business in the world. This adds, again, five
               additional sites with over 50,000 square feet of lab space, which
               is really important. The reason we are so enthusiastic about this
               is there's a recent Gartner Group study that talks really about
               that the IS organizations, by 2002 their estimate is that they
               will outsource about 85% of application testing IIT
               organizations. So we view this outsource testing business as a
               very fast grower, first. And second, the fact that we will be
               able to maintain and develop a global test bed for Web
               applications and wireless applications, coupled with our
               announcements of Unisys, Compaq and Microsoft, of course, we're
               really developing this to be a separate business. That is, I
               don't want to say epicenter, because of course, they're based in
               Seattle, but it'll be the focus, or the Switzerland, of the
               business.

               We will have a strong practice in key technology areas, wireless
               and accessibility testing, as I mentioned. And also, there will
               be a strong emphasis on process improvement and quality
               measurement given their onsite test consulting capability that
               will be reinforced with our own technology group.

               Last, there is a strong marketing engine that will be combined
               with the two businesses, and a large software platform and global
               test bed, which I alluded to, an inventory of products, to
               complement our own state of the art data center simulators.

               So in general, we are very enthusiastic about the business
               combination. There is a lot of work to be done to put these two
               companies together. I'd really like to compliment everyone at the
               DDI test and ADM business and welcome them to the Lionbridge
               fold.

               That is our prepared part of the comments. Should I open this up
               to questions?

Moderator      Our first question is from the line of Brett Manderfeld. Please
               go ahead.

B. Manderfeld  Hello, guys. Congratulations.

R. Cowan       Hello, Brett. Thank you.

B. Manderfeld  It sounds like a really nice fit with what you had going on at
               Veritest. A quick question, was there competition for the deal?


R. Cowan       Yes. They had hired a bank to work with others. I don't want to
               speak for their board, but our impression is that the Lionbridge
               offer was the accepted offer not only because there was stock for
               stock, which would give their shareholders continued up side, but
               also the strategic fit between our global infrastructure, the
               Veritest brand and the DDI activities really made an awful lot of
               strategic sense. There were other cash buyers we are told; of
               course that's on their side of things, but I think that everybody
               believed that this was the far greater value creating opportunity
               for the DDI shareholders.

B. Manderfeld  Okay. Will most of the management stay with you, Rory?

R. Cowan       Yes, I think they will. There are two layers of management that
               you'll want to talk about when you think of this. Remember, this
               was sort of a jewel that was buried inside of all of the DDI
               organization, remember this was based on the STI Labs acquisition
               DDI made a few years ago, which was has a fabulous name, has
               terrific personnel and has deep capabilities here. So there are
               two layers of management, the existing operating management of
               the testing business we will certainly be integrating and working
               together with our Veritest team, but logically, the corporate
               management will probably not go with us, will not move forward
               with us.

B. Manderfeld  Okay. And finally, just in terms of the sites, I think you
               mentioned they had five. Will you be consolidating any of those
               sites? And what kind of capacity do they have at those sites to
               grow as you grow?

R. Cowan       I think there is a lot of capacity in the business. Remember,
               they were just smoking last year as a lot of the dot-com
               deployments, when those sort of evaporated, they rebuilt that
               activity in a very short order, which really speaks highly of
               their sales engine and also of their operating execution.

               Our plan is not to shut sites. There may be some minor
               consolidations in some locations, remember we have a lab here in
               the Boston area; they have a lab in Maryland, which was the
               Maryland to Washington area. There's a lot of technology activity
               happening there, which is important to us. So our goal is not to
               consolidate sites. That's not in the plan. But you know business
               conditions change, and I don't want to say never about anything,
               but we think it gives us a very nice complement to our existing
               International sites and our domestic activity.


B. Manderfeld  Okay. Maybe one final question, you mentioned the dot-coms, do
               you expect some of the larger clients that they have to see an up
               tick in the business as the year progresses given kind of the
               slow down in tech spending in general?

R. Cowan       I think there are two things happening here. First, the Gartner
               Group studies talk about that testing is becoming an important,
               individual discipline, because you maintain these skills. Of
               course, in a large company you have high turn over in the testing
               department, because look, it's rare that you get to be the head
               of development starting in testing, right? Where as we offer an
               environment here for people that enjoy the QA industry. They have
               career opportunities. They have skills that are developed and
               refined.

               And also, as these test beds are becoming expensive and global to
               maintain, we are now getting enough scale to create an
               infrastructure where people can do, for example, with the Unisys
               EF7000s we have, they can smoke test deployments before they are
               actually installed and up and running in a corporate environment.
               So we are really very enthusiastic about the environment we're
               creating here.

B. Manderfeld  That sounds great. I apologize for all of the questions, but
               maybe, Steve, do they have any debt on the books right now? And
               what kind of cash do they have as well? That's my last question.
               Again, congratulations.

R. Cowan       Well, you've got the floor here. You're on a roll.

S. Lifshatz    Just speaking to debt, they have no debt to speak of. They do
               have a bank revolver that I believe had about $300,000 on it as
               of this stage. At the end of December, they show a little over $2
               million in cash on their books, supported by receivables of about
               $11.5 million.

R. Cowan       Anybody there?

Moderator      Mr. Manderfeld, does that answer your question?

B. Manderfeld  It sure does. Thank you.

Moderator      Very good. Thank you.

R. Cowan       Sorry, Brett, didn't mean to ....


Moderator      Now, we're going to move on to the line of Alex Arnold. Please go
               ahead.

A. Arnold      Hello, guys. Congratulations.

R. Cowan       Hello, Alex.

A. Arnold      I used to follow Data Dimensions in the Y2K days.

R. Cowan       Great.

A. Arnold      Let me ask a question. I got on here right as you were finishing
               up prepared remarks, so tell me to go off line with you later if
               you want, but could you talk about the structure of the company
               and what you will hold on to and what you won't?

R.Cowan        Yes. I think it is worth repeating that if you know Data
               Dimensions, this is a company that has had the Y2K run, sold off
               some other divisions and really what's left, Alex, is the old FT
               Labs portion, or their testing infrastructure, as well as their
               applications development and maintenance group. Those are the two
               businesses we will maintain. That's about all that's left of the
               Data Dimensions you must have known four or five years ago. They
               sold off some other pieces. We will integrate these with our
               Veritest service group.

A. Arnold      Did you give the number of people?

R. Cowan       The consolidation of the two of them together, we'll have about
               400 to 450 people world wide in our testing business. We
               anticipate that we will have a combined run rate in testing this
               year; we'll leave the year at about that 55 million to 60 million
               this year. EBIT DA target is 9% to 11% for the testing business
               after some activities which Steve, it's probably better if he
               does it off line, regarding the transaction activities for you.
               But it should be pointed out that there will be some
               rationalization, as I said to Brett, there is a corporate
               infrastructure and there is the operating business
               infrastructure. We will rationalize our duplicative corporate
               infrastructures and focus on the operating business.

A. Arnold      Okay. And is it a done deal?

S. Lifshatz    A definitive agreement has been signed.

A. Arnold      Okay. How many shares are you issuing?


S. Lifshatz    It's going to be approximately 2.683 million.

R. Cowan       That's $15 million of stock.

A. Arnold      Great. Thanks a lot, guys.

Moderator      We'll go to the line of Rick Hadsman. Please go ahead.

J. McPeake     Yes, hello. It's John McPeake from Prudential. Hello, guys. Can
               you hear me?

R. Cowan       Absolutely, John.

J. McPeake     Okay. Congratulations. It sounds like a good acquisition. Just a
               couple of questions here, first off, are you guys contemplating
               doing any hosted testing services that would be almost like a
               software subscription type model, like Mercury Interactive is
               doing?

R. Cowan       There are lots of options with this business, John. I don't want
               to commit to any particular competitive environments or
               competitors because we have some very good partnerships with a
               lot of the tools and software development players here. So we do
               have some hosting activities here. Steve, do you have anything
               you'd like to add? Do you have some awareness of this?

S. Lifshatz    Yes. I guess at this stage we really don't have any specific
               hosting plans. I know in the old Data Dimensions they had a piece
               that was doing managed services that was transferred over to
               another organization. That's where that activity has gone.

R. Cowan       But having said that, John, this platform gives us the scale to
               go in a lot of directions with the business. We're seeing
               interest in hosted services overall and we will be developing
               capabilities in that area, but I don't want to commit to saying,
               "Yes, I'm going to take some XYZ head on." But at the same time,
               I don't want to commit that we're not going to take them head on.

J. McPeake     Okay. If you could just allow me a couple of more, along those
               same lines, what about the relationships with some of the content
               management providers in terms of plugging in your software? Sort
               of outside of the acquisition, but I'm just wondering if those
               are proceeding well?


R. Cowan       Yes. We've had some terrific traction with the Documentums of the
               world and others. We've got a number of activities and projects
               in the pipe. We've got some Betas out there, the connectors,
               remember the LGP, which was sort of the four lions there, if you
               will, the lion access. That's really the connector that we're
               talking about.

               We've been having a series of lunches, training the Documentum
               sales force, exposing them to what we're doing. You may have seen
               that Documentum has announced that their international sales are
               real focused on a growth point for them. We're finding that
               everyone in this IT pause that's going on right now, the news is
               that everyone is saying after some rejiggering of our product
               planning, international is the focus. You see Cisco called it
               out, Nortel did, HP did, and Documentum did. Everyone is focusing
               on that. Now, it's taken them a while to get their plans
               rejigged, because you can't turn these battleships, but it seems
               to be working.

J. McPeake     That's a nice seg way into my last question, which is it seems
               like you guys had some postponements in the December quarter and
               then some of that stuff picked back up in terms of some of the
               projects in the March quarter, you said on your conference call.
               Could you just give us a feel for what you're seeing, because you
               have a pretty broad client base, I think that was said before on
               the call?

R. Cowan       Yes, I think we do. It's interesting, we saw, as we mentioned, a
               lot of our penned up demand that rolled over, people just didn't
               want to release projects. They didn't want to book the cost in
               Q4. We saw a lot of releases early in the quarter. We have seen
               some hesitation mid-quarter as people refocus on their plans. We
               have not seen cost pressure. We have seen projects getting bigger
               and more thoughtful and more integrated, which sort of speaks to
               the strength of our business.

               I think one of the other things we are finding is that our
               recurring revenue model is really coming to the fore right now
               because we are seeing projects that we started last year are
               growing internally. We're seeing a focus more, John, by everybody
               on international, but there is a greater caution right now. As
               you may have seen that HP has announced some of their price cuts
               in Europe, I don't know if you saw that with their server line?
               They are really focusing on Europe. It's too early to say if the
               slow down is hitting Europe that's hit the US, but there's
               clearly focus on it by all of our customers now.


               Projects are bigger and our pipeline is larger, although there is
               some hesitation and I think that the contracting process is
               getting a little bit tighter on everybody's fronts given the
               importance of these now. So it's no longer just the department
               level, let's drop a $100,000 or $200,000 project, but we are
               talking about the $1 million projects that have a greater
               contracting relationship with them.

J. McPeake     Okay. I'm going to let you get away with that. Maybe, Steve and
               Rory, how is your visibility now versus when you had the
               conference call in to the March quarter? Are you feeling pretty
               good about the outlook?

R. Cowan       Yes. I think what we're seeing is this, we are going to be ahead
               of Q4, but we probably won't be out there where everybody has us.
               I don't want to say we won't yet, but I think this mid-quarter
               hesitation has sort of given us some pause here, although we're
               seeing a lot of large projects come in. That's giving us good
               momentum for Q2, particularly, I think, with this program here,
               with Data Dimensions getting involved, and the focus on testing
               happening where we are feeling very good about the business.

               Again, I want to re-emphasize, I've talked with you guys for two
               years about this recurring revenue stuff we were building here,
               and these companies and these projects that we sold 18 months ago
               are now becoming sizable and we're just in the water supply for a
               lot of companies right now. So I'm feeling really good about the
               business model. There is some hesitation out there, but there are
               no real problems.

S. Lifshatz    If I can interject, as a reminder, John, what we mentioned on our
               Q4 conference call was that 80% of our revenue had come from
               customers that had been with us for a year or longer. I want to
               really re-emphasize the recurring revenue nature.

J. McPeake     I think those comments are very understandable given what's going
               on. I don't think anyone is going to be surprised about that.
               Thanks a lot.

R. Cowan       Great. Thank you, John.

Moderator      We have no other questions in queue at this time. Please
               continue.

R. Cowan       Okay. Listen, I don't think there is much more left to say. I
               know some of you joined the call a little bit later, feel free to
               give us a


               call to get the actual particulars down so you can get the right
               numbers and everything in the right order that you need in the
               context of FD. We can confirm to you what we had said previously.
               So clearly, we aren't going to have any off line conversations.
               We are all very well trained about that.

               Okay. Thanks an awful lot for your time, everybody.
