In deciding whether to invest, you should carefully consider the following factors, the information contained in this prospectus and the other information that we have referred you to. It is especially important to keep these risk factors in mind when you read forward-looking statements. These are statements that relate to future periods and include statements about our: . expected operating results; . market opportunities; . acquisition opportunities; . ability to compete; and . stock price. Generally, the words "anticipates," "believes," "expects," "intends" and similar expressions identify such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, and our actual results could differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements because of these and other factors. Potential fluctuations in operating results While our sales cycle varies substantially from customer to customer, we usually realize a high percentage of our revenue in the third month of each fiscal quarter and this revenue tends to be concentrated in the latter half of that month. Our orders early in a quarter will not generally occur at a rate which, if sustained throughout the quarter, would be sufficient to assure that we will meet our revenue targets for any particular quarter. Accordingly, our quarterly results may be difficult or impossible to predict prior to the end of the quarter. Any inability to obtain orders in large volumes or to make shipments in the period immediately preceding the end of any particular quarter may cause the results for that quarter to fall short of our revenue targets. In addition, our operating expenses are based on expected future revenue and are relatively fixed for the short term. As a result, a revenue shortfall in any quarter could cause our earnings for that quarter to fall below expectations as well. Any failure to meet our quarterly revenue or earnings targets could adversely impact the market price of our stock. Because our sales incentive structure is weighted more heavily toward the end of the fiscal year, the rate of revenue growth for the first quarter historically has been lower than that for the fourth quarter of the immediately preceding fiscal year. This incentive structure also makes it more difficult to predict first quarter results. In addition, the levels of quarterly or annual software revenue in general, or for particular geographic areas, may not be comparable to those achieved in previous periods. Stock market volatility of software companies Market prices for securities of software companies have generally been volatile. In particular, the market price of our common stock has been and may continue to be subject to significant fluctuations. In addition, a large percentage of our common stock traditionally has been held by institutional investors. Consequently, actions with respect to our common stock by certain of these institutional investors could have a significant impact on the market price of the stock. For more information, please see our proxy statement with respect to our most recent annual meeting of stockholders and Schedules 13D and 13G filed with the SEC with respect to our common stock. 4 Market growth assumptions may prove inconsistent Any of our projections for revenue growth assume that the overall demand for products in the mechanical computer aided design, manufacturing and engineering (CAD/CAM/CAE) industry will continue to grow. There could be an adverse impact on our operating results in any quarter in which this assumption proves to be incorrect. Rapid technological and market changes could affect our competitive position and operating results The mechanical CAD/CAM/CAE and enterprise information management industries are highly competitive, and are characterized by rapid technological advances. Accordingly, our ability to realize our expectations will depend on: . our success at enhancing our current offerings; . our ability to develop new products and services that keep pace with developments in technology; . our ability to meet evolving customer requirements, especially ease-of- use requirements; . our ability to deliver those products through appropriate distribution channels; and . our ability to license technology from third parties. This will require, among other things, that we: . correctly anticipate customer needs and price our products competitively; . hire and retain personnel with the necessary skills and creativity; . provide adequate funding for development efforts; and . manage distribution channels effectively. In addition, our CAD/CAM/CAE software has historically been available on a variety of platforms. We are aware of efforts by competitors to focus on single platform applications, particularly Windows-based platforms. There can be no assurance that we will continue to have a competitive advantage with multiple platform applications. We continue to enhance our existing products by releasing updates. Those product updates will be less frequent than in the past to permit customers to absorb changes more effectively. Our competitive position and operating results could suffer if: . we fail to anticipate or to respond adequately to customer requirements or to technological developments, particularly those of our competitors; . we delay the development, production, testing, marketing or availability of new or enhanced products or services; or . customers fail to accept such products or services. The success of our new Windchill product line will depend in part on the market's evaluation of its ease of use, its full functionality, and its ability to support a large user base. Since this product line only became available in the latter half of fiscal 1998, it is not possible to assess the market's acceptance of this product line at this time. Possibility of new product delays As is common in the computer software industry, we may from time to time experience delays in our product development and "debugging" efforts. Our financial performance could be hurt by significant delays in developing, completing or shipping new or enhanced products. Among other things, such delays could cause us to incorrectly predict the fiscal quarter in which we will realize revenue from the shipment of the new or enhanced products and give our competitors a greater opportunity to market competing products. 5 Uncertainties of successfully implementing new initiatives We have a history of rapid growth and development as an organization. Part of our success has resulted from our ability to implement new initiatives. Our future operating results will continue to depend upon: . the success of our efforts to integrate Computervision's operations on a worldwide basis; . market acceptance of the new Windchill product line, which has a longer sales cycle than our other products, and the success of our Windchill pilot program; . the success of our sales force reorganization initiative, including Rand's success with sales to smaller customers; . market reaction to the repricing and repackaging of our Pro/ENGINEER product line; and . our ability to increase revenue growth in the Asia/Pacific region. Additionally, our success could also be affected by our ability to: . develop additional applications for the Windchill product line; . generate and fill current software license orders; and . adequately manage exposure to foreign currency movements. Risks associated with acquisitions We have increased our product range and customer base in the recent past due in part to acquisitions. We may acquire additional businesses or product lines in the future. The success of any acquisition may be dependent upon our ability to integrate the acquired business or products successfully and to retain key personnel and customers associated with the acquisition. If we fail to do so, or if the costs of or length of time for integration increase significantly, it could cause our actual results to differ from those projected in our forward-looking statements. In addition, acquisitions may result in the allocation of purchase price to in-process research and development. For example, for the year ended September 30, 1998, we recorded in-process research and development expense of approximately $28.9 million in connection with our acquisition of ICEM Technologies. The SEC has recently raised issues regarding the methodologies used and allocation of purchase price to in-process R&D and has required some companies to adjust or restate prior periods to reduce allocations to in- process R&D, thereby increasing intangible assets and future amortization expense. While we believe that our in-process R&D allocation is appropriate, if the SEC were to require us to change the allocation, this would result in a higher amortization expense, which would adversely impact our future operating results. Competition from new products; difficulty of competing against established products There are an increasing number of competitive mechanical CAD/CAM/CAE products. Increased competition and market acceptance of these products could have a negative effect on our pricing and revenues which could adversely affect our operating results. Our Windchill product line expands the breadth of our offerings into product information management. We are a relatively new entrant into this area and may be competing with more mature products that may have an established customer base as well as greater functionality. Dependence on key personnel Our success depends upon our ability to attract and retain highly skilled technical, managerial and sales personnel. While we have not experienced any significant difficulty in hiring or retaining qualified personnel to date, competition for such personnel in the high technology industry is intense. We assume that we will continue to be able to attract and retain such personnel. The failure to do so, however, could have a material adverse effect on our future operating results. 6 Risks associated with international business A significant portion of our business comes from outside the United States. Accordingly, our performance could be adversely affected by ongoing economic uncertainties in the Asia/Pacific region and other world economies. Another consequence of significant international business is that a large percentage of our revenue and expenses are denominated in foreign currencies which fluctuate in value. Although we may enter into foreign exchange forward contracts and foreign exchange option contracts to offset a portion of the foreign exchange fluctuations, unanticipated events may materially impact our results. Other risks associated with international business include: . unexpected changes in regulatory practices and tariffs; . staffing and managing foreign operations; . longer collection cycles in certain areas; . potential changes in tax laws; . greater difficulty in protecting intellectual property rights; and . general economic and political conditions. Difficulties of protecting intellectual property and other proprietary rights Our software products are proprietary to PTC. We protect our intellectual property rights by relying on copyrights, trademarks, patents and common law safeguards, including trade secret protection, as well as restrictions on disclosures and transferability contained in our agreements with other parties. Despite these measures, there can be no assurance that the laws of all relevant jurisdictions will afford the same protections to our products and intellectual property as the laws of the United States. The software industry is characterized by frequent litigation regarding copyright, patent and other intellectual property rights. While we have not, to date, had any significant claims of this type asserted against us, there can be no assurance that someone will not assert such claims against us with respect to existing or future products or that, if asserted, we would prevail in such claims. In the event a lawsuit of this type is filed, it could result in significant expense to us and divert the efforts of our technical and management personnel, whether or not we ultimately prevail. Pending legal proceedings Certain class action lawsuits have been filed against us and certain of our current and former officers and directors claiming violations of the federal securities laws based on alleged misrepresentations regarding our anticipated revenue and earnings for the third quarter of 1998. We believe the claims are without merit, and we intend to defend them vigorously. We cannot predict the ultimate resolution of these actions at this time, however, there can be no assurance that the litigation will not have a material adverse impact on our financial condition or results of operations. Risk of Year 2000 non-compliance Our operations and results could be adversely affected if our current product offerings or internal systems are not made Year 2000 compliant or if the major vendors or suppliers with whom we deal are not Year 2000 ready and cannot be easily replaced. In addition, purchases by our customers could be affected if they must expend significant resources to correct their own systems. Euro-conversion uncertainties The conversion of major European countries to a common legal currency creates uncertainties for companies like us that do significant business in Europe. These uncertainties include technical adaptation of internal systems to accommodate euro-denominated transactions, long-term competitive implications of the conversion and the effect on market risk with respect to financial instruments. 7 USE OF PROCEEDS We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares by the selling stockholders. THE ACQUISITIONS We issued shares of our common stock to the selling stockholders in connection with two acquisitions. On October 2, 1998, we acquired InPart Design, Inc. pursuant the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated as of September 9, 1998 among us, one of our wholly owned subsidiaries and InPart. On March 8, 1999, we acquired auxilium inc. under the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated as of March 8, 1999 among us, one of our wholly owned subsidiaries, auxilium inc. and the stockholders of auxilium. InPart and auxilium both now operate as our wholly owned subsidiaries. In connection with these acquisitions, we issued or reserved for issuance a total of 4,642,586 shares of our common stock, of which 2,028,484 shares were in consideration for all the InPart stock and 2,614,102 shares, together with $39,375,000 in cash, were in consideration for all the auxilium stock. We also reserved 1,403,467 shares of our common stock for options and warrants of InPart and auxilium which we assumed. Under the terms of the InPart acquisition, we may be obligated to issue additional shares to the former InPart stockholders in September 1999. SELLING STOCKHOLDERS The selling stockholders were the former stockholders of InPart and auxilium. We issued the shares covered by this prospectus to them in connection with the acquisitions or upon exercise of options assumed in the acquisitions. In agreements related to the acquisitions, we agreed to register for resale the shares issued to the selling stockholders. The following table lists certain information concerning the selling stockholders as of March 29, 1999, including the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholders, the number of shares that the selling stockholders may sell under this prospectus and the number of shares to be held by each such selling stockholder assuming the sale of all of the shares offered in this prospectus. In the past three years, none of the selling stockholders has had a material relationship with us, except that certain selling stockholders became non-officer employees of or short-term consultants to us, InPart or auxilium after the acquisition. We may amend or supplement this prospectus from time to time to update the disclosure set forth herein.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION The selling stockholders may offer the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus from time to time in transactions in the over-the-counter market, on any exchange where the common stock is then listed, with broker- dealers or third-parties other than in the over-the-counter market or on an exchange (including in block sales), in connection with short sales, in connection with writing call options or in other hedging arrangements, or in transactions involving a combination of such methods. The selling stockholders may sell their shares at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices, at negotiated prices or at fixed prices. The selling stockholders may use dealers, agents or underwriters to sell their shares. Underwriters may use dealers to sell such shares. If this happens, the dealers, agents or underwriters may receive compensation in the form of discounts or commissions from the selling stockholders, purchasers of shares or both (which compensation to a particular broker might be in excess of customary compensation). The selling stockholders and any dealers, agents or underwriters that participate with the selling stockholder in the distribution of the shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" as such term is defined in the Securities Act of 1933. Any commissions paid or any discounts or concessions allowed to any such persons, and any profits received on the resale of such shares of common stock offered by this prospectus, may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act of 1933. To the extent required, we will amend or supplement this prospectus to disclose material arrangements regarding the plan of distribution. To comply with the securities laws of certain jurisdictions, the shares offered by this prospectus may need to be offered or sold in such jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. Under applicable rules and regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, any person engaged in a distribution of the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus may be limited in its ability to engage in market activities with respect to such shares. The selling stockholder, for example, will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations under it, which provisions may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any shares of common stock by the selling stockholder. The foregoing may affect the marketability of the shares offered by this prospectus. We have agreed to pay certain expenses of the offering and issuance of the shares covered by this prospectus, including the printing, legal and accounting expenses we incur and the registration and filing fees imposed by the SEC or the Nasdaq National Market. We will not pay brokerage commissions or taxes associated with sales by the selling stockholders or any legal, accounting and other expenses of the selling stockholders. We have agreed with the selling stockholders, subject to certain conditions, to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective until one year from the effective date or, if earlier, such time as all of the shares have been disposed of pursuant to and in accordance with the registration statement. 9 LEGAL MATTERS The validity of the shares offered hereby will be passed upon for us by Palmer & Dodge LLP.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers Section 67 of Chapter 156B of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Law grants PTC the power to indemnify any director, officer, employee or agent to whatever extent permitted by PTC's Articles of Organization, By-Laws or a vote adopted by the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote thereon, unless the proposed indemnitee has been adjudicated in any proceeding not to have acted in good faith in the reasonable belief that his action was in the best interests of PTC or, to the extent that the matter for which indemnification is sought relates to service with respect to an employee benefit plan, in the best interests of the participants or beneficiaries of such employee benefit plan. Such indemnification may include payment by PTC of expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action or proceeding in advance of the final disposition of such action or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by the person indemnified to repay such payment if he shall be adjudicated to be not entitled to indemnification under the statute. Article 6B of PTC's Articles of Organization provides that PTC shall, to the fullest extent legally permissible, indemnify each person at any time elected or appointed a director or officer of PTC, or who serves at PTC's request as a director or officer of another organization or in any capacity with respect to any employee benefit plan against any and all costs and expenses (including but not limited to court costs and legal fees) reasonably incurred by, and any and all liabilities imposed upon, him in connection with, or arising out of, or resulting from, any claim made, or any action, suit or proceeding (whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative) threatened or brought, against him or in which he may be involved as a party or otherwise by reason of his having so served or by reason of any action taken or omitted or alleged to have been taken or omitted by him in such capacity unless in any proceeding such person shall have been finally adjudicated with respect to the matter or matters as to which indemnification is sought not to have acted in good faith in the reasonable belief that his action was in the best interest of PTC or, to the extent that such matter or matters relate to service with respect to an employee benefit plan, in the best interests of the participants or beneficiaries of such employee benefit plan. Such indemnification shall include payment by PTC of expenses incurred in defending any such action, suit or proceeding in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the person indemnified to repay such payment if he shall be adjudicated to be not entitled to indemnification under Article VI, which undertaking shall be accepted without reference to the financial ability of such person to make repayment. The right of indemnification under Article 6B does not extend to amounts incurred or paid in connection with any matter which shall be disposed of through a compromise payment or other settlement prior to final adjudication, whether by or pursuant to a consent decree or otherwise, unless such compromise or other settlement is approved by PTC, which approval shall not unreasonably be withheld, or by a court of competent II-1 jurisdiction. Article VI sets forth certain circumstances under which the payment of indemnification is conclusively deemed approved by PTC. Article VI also contains certain procedural and other provisions which provide additional protection for persons seeking indemnification. The indemnification provided for in Article VI is a contract right inuring to the benefit of the directors, officers and others entitled to indemnification. In addition, the indemnification is expressly in addition to and not exclusive of any other rights to which such director, officer or other person may be entitled and inures to the benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators and legal representatives of such a person. Section 13(b)(1 1/2) of Chapter 156B of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Law provides that a corporation may, in its Articles of Organization, eliminate the directors' personal liability to the corporation and its stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of fiduciary duty, except in circumstances involving (i) a breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) unauthorized distributions and loans to insiders, and (iv) transactions from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. PTC's Articles of Organization include a provision providing that no director shall be personally liable to PTC or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent that such exculpation is not permitted under the provisions of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Law summarized above. No amendment or repeal of that provision of the Articles of Organization shall apply or have any effect on the liability of any director for or with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to the amendment or repeal. PTC maintains an insurance policy on behalf of the directors and officers of PTC and its subsidiaries covering certain liabilities which may arise as a result of the actions of said directors and officers. The provisions described above may be sufficiently broad to indemnify directors and officers and control persons of PTC against liability arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"). Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling PTC pursuant to the foregoing provisions, PTC has been informed that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is therefore unenforceable. Item 16. Exhibits See Exhibit Index immediately following the signature page hereof. Item 17. Undertakings (a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes: (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement. (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration II-2 statement; provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post- effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 of 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement. (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. (b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of any employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in this registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the provisions referred to in Item 15 hereof, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. II-3 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-3 and has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, there unto duly authorized, in the City of Waltham, Massachusetts, on March 29, 1999.
