Stockholders: I am writing you today about our proposed merger with Innoveda, Inc. This merger will create a combined company capable of creating and marketing software tools for the design of electronic products at the system level, a comprehensive environment for printed circuit board design and tools for electromechanical design. We are very excited about the opportunities we envision for the combined company. The board of directors of PADS has determined that the terms and conditions of the merger are fair to you and in your best interests and has unanimously recommended that you approve the merger. In the merger, Innoveda will issue 6,473,136 shares of its common stock and expects to pay approximately $1.7 million to the PADS stockholders. The number of shares of Innoveda common stock and the cash consideration which each PADS stockholder will receive in exchange for their shares of PADS capital stock will be determined at the effective time of the merger based on the number of shares and options of PADS capital stock then outstanding. Based upon the outstanding PADS capital stock as of August 1, 2000, it is expected that each share of PADS capital stock will be exchanged for approximately 1.9 shares of Innoveda common stock and $.51 in cash. In addition, each outstanding option to purchase shares of PADS common stock will be converted into an option to purchase 2.0355 shares of Innoveda common stock, with the option exercise price to be adjusted accordingly. Innoveda common stock is traded on the Nasdaq National Market under the trading symbol "INOV" and closed at a sale price of $4.4375 per share on August 9, 2000. The terms and conditions of the merger are described more fully in this consent solicitation statement/prospectus. We are asking holders of PADS preferred stock to consent to the adoption of the merger agreement by executing the enclosed written consent in lieu of a meeting. The adoption of the merger agreement must be approved by the holders of at least two-thirds in interest of the outstanding shares of PADS series A preferred stock and PADS series B preferred stock, voting together as a single class. Prior to the mailing of this consent solicitation statement/prospectus, a holder of PADS series A preferred stock who owns approximately 90% of the outstanding shares of PADS preferred stock agreed to consent to the adoption of the merger agreement. Therefore, adoption of the merger agreement is assured. This consent solicitation statement/prospectus provides detailed information about Innoveda and the merger. Please give all of this information your careful attention. IN PARTICULAR, YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE DISCUSSION IN THE SECTION ENTITLED "RISK FACTORS" BEGINNING ON PAGE 8 OF THIS CONSENT SOLICITATION STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS. Holders of PADS capital stock have the right under Delaware law to require an appraisal of their shares and to demand payment of fair value for their shares. These rights, generally known as "appraisal rights," are summarized in this document. In addition, a copy of Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which governs appraisal rights, is attached to this consent solicitation statement/prospectus. We urge you to read both the summary and the statutory provision carefully. If you wish to demand an appraisal of your shares, you must strictly comply with the statutory requirements, including sending your written demand for appraisal to PADS before August 31, 2000. Pursuant to the merger agreement, Innoveda will not be obligated to proceed with the merger if stockholders holding more than three percent of the outstanding shares of PADS capital stock demand appraisal of their shares. Accordingly, we request that holders of PADS nonvoting common stock sign and return the enclosed waiver to PADS by August 31, 2000 in order to inform us that they do not plan to exercise their appraisal rights. You should be aware, however, that failure to return a waiver will not, in itself, constitute a demand for appraisal of your shares. IF YOU CHOOSE TO WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO DEMAND AN APPRAISAL OF YOUR SHARES UNDER DELAWARE LAW, PLEASE SIGN THE ENCLOSED WAIVER AND RETURN IT IN THE ACCOMPANYING POSTAGE PAID ENVELOPE. The boards of directors of PADS and Innoveda are furnishing you this document to provide you with important information about the merger and about Innoveda. You should read this information carefully prior to making any decision regarding adoption of the merger agreement or exercise of your appraisal rights. Sincerely, Kenneth L.

ii QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE MERGER Q: WHY ARE THE COMPANIES PROPOSING TO MERGE? A: Innoveda and PADS are proposing to merge because we believe the resulting combination will create a stronger, more competitive company capable of achieving greater financial strength, operational efficiencies, earning power and growth potential than either company would have on its own. We believe that PADS and Innoveda together will be positioned to deliver a comprehensive environment for printed circuit board and advanced integrated circuit packaging design, in addition to Innoveda's other environments for system-level design, design capture and electromechanical design. The environments are backed by Innoveda's comprehensive consulting services, and sold through an experienced worldwide direct sales force and value added reseller channel. Q: HOW WILL THESE TWO COMPANIES MERGE? A: Innoveda will combine with PADS under a merger agreement providing that a wholly owned subsidiary of Innoveda will merge with and into PADS, with PADS surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Innoveda. Q: WHAT WILL I RECEIVE IN THE MERGER? A: If the merger is completed, you will receive a combination of shares of Innoveda common stock and cash consideration for each share of PADS common stock that you own. The number of shares of Innoveda common stock and the cash consideration which each PADS stockholder will receive in exchange for their shares of PADS capital stock will be determined at the effective time of the merger based on the number of shares and options of PADS capital stock then outstanding. Based upon the outstanding PADS capital stock as of August 1, 2000, it is expected that each share of PADS capital stock will be exchanged for approximately 1.9 shares of Innoveda common stock and $.51 in cash. Innoveda will not issue fractional shares of its common stock. Instead, you will receive the number of shares of Innoveda common stock to which you would have been entitled rounded up or down to the nearest whole number with a fractional interest equal to .5 rounded to the nearest odd number. No cash payment in lieu of fractional shares will be made. Q: WHEN DO YOU EXPECT TO COMPLETE THE MERGER OF INNOVEDA AND PADS? A: We are working to complete the merger as quickly as possible. We expect to complete the merger by the end of the third calendar quarter of 2000. However, we cannot predict the exact timing, because the merger is subject to governmental and other regulatory approvals. In addition, if necessary or desirable, Innoveda and PADS may agree to complete the merger at a later date. Q: WHAT ARE THE FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE MERGER? A: The merger is intended to qualify as a reorganization under the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no gain or loss will generally be recognized by Innoveda, PADS or the Innoveda subsidiary that is being merged into PADS solely as a result of the merger. Additionally, no gain or loss will be recognized by PADS stockholders to the extent they receive shares of Innoveda common stock in the merger. In general, however, PADS stockholders will recognize taxable gain to the extent they receive cash in the merger. PADS stockholders should consult their tax advisors for a full understanding of the tax consequences of the merger. Q: WHO MUST APPROVE THE MERGER? A: In addition to the approvals by the Innoveda board of directors and the PADS 1 board of directors, each of which has already been obtained, and governmental and other regulatory approvals, the PADS stockholders must approve the merger. Q: WHAT STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL IS REQUIRED TO APPROVE THE MERGER? A: The affirmative approval of the holders of at least two-thirds in interest of the outstanding shares of PADS series A preferred stock and PADS series B preferred stock, voting together as a single class, is required to approve the merger. Prior to mailing this consent solicitation statement/ prospectus, a holder of PADS series A preferred stock who owns approximately 90% of the outstanding shares of PADS preferred stock agreed to consent to the adoption of the merger agreement. Therefore, adoption of the merger agreement is assured. Q: DO THE INNOVEDA STOCKHOLDERS HAVE TO APPROVE THE MERGER? A: No. Innoveda stockholder approval is not required to approve the merger. Q: DOES THE PADS BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE MERGER AGREEMENT AND THE MERGER? A: Yes. After careful consideration, the PADS board of directors unanimously recommended that its stockholders approve the merger. For a more complete description of the recommendation of the PADS board of directors, see the section entitled "The Merger--PADS' Reasons for the Merger; Recommendation of the PADS Board of Directors" on page 33. Q: WHAT DO I NEED TO DO NOW? A: We urge you to read carefully this consent solicitation statement/prospectus, including its annexes and the documents incorporated herein by reference as noted on page 101 carefully, and to consider how the merger will affect you as a stockholder. You also may want to review the other documents referenced under "Where You Can Find More Information" on page 100. Q: HOW DO I APPROVE THE MERGER? A: To approve the merger you should answer this consent solicitation statement/ prospectus in writing by signing and returning the consent form. Q: WHOM MAY I CONTACT WITH ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS? A: You may call Richard T. Finigan, the investor relations contact for PADS at (508) 485-4300. Q: ARE THERE ANY RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE MERGER? A: The merger does involve risks. For a discussion of risk factors that should be considered in evaluating the merger, see "Risk Factors" beginning on page 8. 2 SUMMARY THIS SUMMARY HIGHLIGHTS SELECTED INFORMATION FROM THIS DOCUMENT AND MAY NOT CONTAIN ALL OF THE INFORMATION THAT IS IMPORTANT TO YOU.

PADS' products operate on Windows and Windows/NT operating systems running on Intel or compatible processors. Its principal product, PowerPCB, is an industry leading, shape-based printed circuit board layout system. THE MERGER Upon the consummation of the merger, PADS will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Innoveda. PADS stockholders will receive a combination of Innoveda common stock and cash consideration in exchange for their shares of PADS capital stock. The merger agreement is attached to this consent solicitation statement/ prospectus as Annex A. We encourage you to read the merger agreement as it is the document that governs the merger. AFFIRMATIVE APPROVAL REQUIRED (PAGE 39) Adoption of the merger agreement requires the affirmative approval of the holders of at least two-thirds in interest of the outstanding shares of PADS series A preferred stock and PADS series B preferred stock, voting together as a single class. A holder of PADS series A preferred stock who owns approximately 90% of the outstanding shares of PADS preferred stock has agreed to consent to the adoption of the merger agreement. Therefore, adoption of the merger agreement is assured. PADS RECOMMENDATION TO STOCKHOLDERS (PAGE 33) The PADS board of directors has voted to approve the merger. The PADS board of directors believes that the merger is advisable and in your best interest and recommends that you execute the written consent to approve the merger. 3 WHAT HOLDERS OF PADS CAPITAL STOCK WILL RECEIVE (PAGE 43) PADS stockholders will receive an aggregate of 6,473,136 shares of Innoveda common stock and approximately $1.7 million in cash. The number of shares of Innoveda common stock and the cash consideration which each PADS stockholder will receive in exchange for their shares of PADS capital stock will be determined at the effective time of the merger based on the number of shares and options of PADS capital stock then outstanding. Based upon the outstanding PADS capital stock as of August 1, 2000, it is expected that each share of PADS capital stock will be exchanged for approximately 1.9 shares of Innoveda common stock and $.51 in cash. Innoveda will not issue fractional shares of Innoveda common stock in connection with the merger, and no cash will be paid in lieu of fractional shares. Instead, Innoveda will round any fractional shares to the nearest whole share with any fractional interest equal to .5 rounded to the nearest odd number. CONDITIONS TO THE MERGER (PAGE 47) The completion of the merger depends upon meeting a number of conditions, including: - the approval of PADS stockholders; - the number of shares represented by PADS stockholders who have not approved the merger and who have demanded appraisal of their shares shall not exceed three percent of the outstanding PADS capital stock on a fully diluted basis; - the receipt of legal opinions regarding the treatment of the merger as a reorganization; and - other customary contractual conditions specified in the merger agreement. Some of the conditions to the merger may be waived by the party entitled to assert the condition. NO SOLICITATION BY PADS (PAGE 46) PADS has agreed that until December 2, 2000 neither it nor any of its subsidiaries will: - solicit, initiate, intentionally encourage or otherwise facilitate any proposal that might lead to an alternative proposal or offer for any merger, reorganization, business combination, sale of stock or substantially all of its assets, or other similar business transaction with any entity other than Innoveda; - engage in negotiations or discussions concerning any similar transaction; or - provide any non-public information to any person relating to any such acquisition of PADS capital stock or assets. PADS has further agreed to cause each of its officers, directors, employees, financial advisors, representatives and agents, as well as the officers, directors, employees, financial advisors, representatives and agents of its subsidiaries, not to take any of these actions. TERMINATION OF THE MERGER AGREEMENT (PAGE 48) Innoveda and PADS can mutually agree to terminate the merger agreement without completing the merger, and either Innoveda or PADS can terminate the merger agreement upon the occurrence of a number of events, including if: - the other party materially breaches any representation, warranty or covenant in the merger agreement and fails to cure the breach within 15 days of receiving notice of the breach; - the merger is not completed by December 2, 2000; or - PADS stockholders do not approve the merger. If the merger agreement is terminated under some circumstances, either Innoveda or PADS may be required to pay the other a termination fee of $2,000,000, or actual damages, if greater. 4 UNVESTED AND RESTRICTED STOCK (PAGE 43) At the effective time of the merger, each unvested share of PADS common stock granted by PADS under any of its plans or arrangements will be converted into unvested shares of Innoveda common stock based on the exchange ratio and will remain subject to the same terms, restrictions and vesting schedules as were applicable prior to the effective time of the merger. Innoveda will assume any rights PADS held prior to the effective time of the merger to repurchase these unvested shares. STOCK OPTIONS (PAGE 43) In connection with the merger agreement, Innoveda will assume all options, whether vested or unvested, to purchase PADS common stock, issued under PADS' stock option plans. Each option to purchase shares of PADS common stock outstanding immediately prior to the closing date will be considered an option to acquire, on the same terms, 2.0355 shares of Innoveda common stock, with the option exercise price to be adjusted accordingly. INTERESTS OF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS OF PADS IN THE MERGER (PAGE 35) In considering the recommendation of the PADS board of directors, you should be aware of the interests that PADS executive officers and directors have in the merger. These include: - Kenneth L. Tepper, an executive officer of PADS, will become an officer of Innoveda, and Hiroshi Hashimoto, a director of PADS, will become a director of Innoveda. - James L. Gennari, an executive officer of PADS, and Naotada Kushitani, an executive officer and director of PADS, will receive retention and separation benefits. - At the closing of the merger, the stock options held by any PADS officer or director will be assumed by Innoveda and each option to purchase a share of PADS common stock will be converted into an option to purchase 2.0355 shares of Innoveda common stock, on the same terms, with the option exercise price to be adjusted accordingly. - At the closing of the merger, each unvested share of PADS common stock held by any PADS officer or director will be converted into unvested shares of Innoveda common stock based on the exchange ratio. - PADS officers and directors have customary rights to indemnification against specified liabilities. In considering the fairness of the merger to PADS stockholders, the PADS board of directors took into account these interests. Some of these interests are different from and in addition to your and their interests as stockholders. As of August 1, 2000, the executive officers of PADS held options to acquire an aggregate of 25,000 shares of PADS common stock, of which options to acquire 18,750 shares are subject to vesting. These options will be converted in the merger into options to acquire approximately 50,888 shares of Innoveda common stock. In addition, as of August 1, 2000, the executive officers held 2,500 restricted shares of PADS common stock which are subject to vesting. These shares will be converted in the merger into approximately 4,750 shares of Innoveda common stock. ACCOUNTING TREATMENT (PAGE 36) Innoveda will account for the merger using the purchase method of accounting, which means that the assets and liabilities of PADS, including intangible assets, will be recorded at their fair value and the results of operations of PADS will be included in Innoveda's results from the date of acquisition. MATERIAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS (PAGE 36) We have structured the merger in order to qualify it as a reorganization under the Internal Revenue Code. It is our intention that no gain 5 or loss generally will be recognized by PADS stockholders for federal income tax purposes on the exchange of shares of PADS common stock and PADS preferred stock solely for shares of Innoveda common stock. PADS stockholders, however, will recognize gain for federal income tax purposes on the cash consideration. Tax matters are very complicated, and the tax consequences of the merger to you will depend on the facts of your own situation. You should consult your tax advisor for a full understanding of the tax consequences of the merger to you. APPRAISAL RIGHTS OF PADS STOCKHOLDERS (PAGE 39) Under Delaware law, PADS stockholders who have not approved the merger and who have perfected their right to appraisal under the procedures established under the Delaware General Corporation Law are entitled to obtain appraisal of their shares of PADS capital stock and to demand payment of fair value for these same shares. Fair value will be determined by a Delaware court and may be more than, the same as, or less than the value of the consideration to be paid to the other PADS stockholders. These rights, generally known as "appraisal rights," are summarized in this document. In addition, a copy of Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which governs appraisal rights, is attached as Annex C to this consent solicitation statement/prospectus. We urge you to read both the summary and statutory provision carefully. The right to demand appraisal of your shares depends upon strict compliance with the statutory requirements, including sending your written demand for appraisal to PADS before August 31, 2000. HOW THE RIGHTS OF PADS STOCKHOLDERS WILL DIFFER AS INNOVEDA STOCKHOLDERS (PAGE 96) The rights of PADS stockholders as stockholders of Innoveda after the merger will be governed by Innoveda's corporate charter and by-laws. Those rights differ from the rights of PADS stockholders under PADS' corporate charter and by-laws. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS MAY PROVE INACCURATE (PAGE 22) We have made forward-looking statements in this document (and in documents that are incorporated in this document by reference) that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include the information concerning possible or assumed future results of operations of Innoveda, including the anticipated cost savings and revenue enhancements from the merger. Also, when we use words such as "believes," "expects," "anticipates," "plans" or similar expressions, we are making forward-looking statements. PADS stockholders should note that many factors could affect the future financial results of Innoveda and PADS, and could cause these results to differ materially from those expressed in our forward-looking statements. These factors include the following: - the risk that Innoveda is unable to achieve the anticipated cost savings and revenue enhancements from the merger; - the risk that Innoveda encounters greater than expected costs and difficulties related to the integration of the businesses of Innoveda and PADS or prior businesses that Innoveda has recently acquired; - the risk that customers of Innoveda and PADS may delay or cancel orders as a result of concerns over the merger; - the risk that Innoveda may be unable to firmly develop, introduce and gain customer acceptance of new products; - economic, political and competitive forces affecting Innoveda's businesses; - the risk that Innoveda's analyses of these risks could be incorrect and/or that the strategies developed to address them could be unsuccessful; and - all of the risks listed under "Risk Factors" in this document. 6 INNOVEDA PRICE INFORMATION (PAGE 28) Shares of Innoveda common stock are quoted on the Nasdaq National Market.

YOU SHOULD ALSO CONSIDER THE OTHER INFORMATION IN THIS CONSENT SOLICITATION STATEMENT/ PROSPECTUS AND THE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION IN INNOVEDA'S OTHER REPORTS ON FILE WITH THE SEC AND IN THE OTHER DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE INTO THIS CONSENT SOLICITATION STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS. SEE "WHERE YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION" ON PAGE 100. RISKS RELATING TO THE MERGER NO ADJUSTMENT TO THE MERGER TERMS WILL BE MADE AS A RESULT OF CHANGES IN THE MARKET PRICE OF INNOVEDA'S COMMON STOCK. Under the merger agreement, the number of shares of Innoveda common stock that PADS stockholders will receive is unaffected by the share price of Innoveda common stock. Increases in the value of Innoveda common stock will result in a higher price being paid by Innoveda for PADS and more value received by PADS stockholders in the merger. Decreases in the value of Innoveda common stock will result in a lower price being paid by Innoveda for PADS and less value received by PADS stockholders in the merger. You will not know the value of Innoveda common stock to be issued in the merger at the time you execute the written consent or decide whether to exercise your appraisal rights. Under the merger agreement, neither Innoveda nor PADS will have the right to terminate the merger agreement as a result of any increase or decrease in the value of Innoveda common stock. INNOVEDA'S STOCK PRICE IS VOLATILE, AND THE VALUE OF THE INNOVEDA COMMON STOCK ISSUED IN THE MERGER WILL DEPEND ON ITS MARKET PRICE AT THE TIME OF THE MERGER. The market price of Innoveda's common stock, like that for the shares of many other technology companies, has been and may continue to be volatile. For example, from July 1, 1999 to August 9, 2000, the Innoveda common stock closed as high as $9.375 per share and as low as $2.125 per share. Recently, the stock market in general and the shares of technology companies in particular have experienced significant price fluctuations. The market price may continue to fluctuate significantly in response to various factors, including: - quarterly variations in operating results or growth rates; - the announcement of technological innovations; - the introduction of new services or offerings by Innoveda and its competitors; - changes in estimates by securities analysts; - market conditions in the industry; - announcements and actions by competitors; - regulatory and judicial actions; and - general economic conditions. SIGNIFICANT MERGER-RELATED CHARGES AGAINST EARNINGS WILL INCREASE INNOVEDA'S LOSSES IN THE QUARTER IN WHICH INNOVEDA CONSUMMATES THE MERGER AND DURING THE POST-MERGER PERIOD. Innoveda intends to record an expense for the purchase of in-process research and development that it currently estimates at approximately $3.1 million in the quarter in which the merger is completed. In addition, Innoveda expects to record restructuring and non-recurring charges related primarily to the consolidation of duplicative facilities and related costs. Innoveda anticipates that these costs associated with the merger will negatively impact results of operations in the quarter the merger is completed. Also, the merger will create approximately $53.5 million in goodwill and other intangible 8 assets that must be amortized over their respective useful lives of three to seven years. This amortization expense will negatively impact results of operations for that period. SIGNIFICANT CASH RESOURCES WILL BE USED FOR THE MERGER. As part of the merger, Innoveda is required to repay approximately $7.5 million of PADS' debt plus the cash payment of approximately $1.7 million to PADS shareholders, as explained elsewhere in this document. Innoveda expects to partially fund these amounts by using PADS' cash, which totaled approximately $3.8 million as of June 30, 2000. The expected repayment amounts, net of the PADS' cash, represented approximately 25% of Innoveda's cash and equivalent balances as of July 1, 2000. IF INNOVEDA DOES NOT SUCCESSFULLY INTEGRATE PADS OR THE MERGER'S BENEFITS DO NOT MEET THE EXPECTATIONS OF FINANCIAL OR INDUSTRY ANALYSTS, THE MARKET PRICE OF INNOVEDA COMMON STOCK MAY DECLINE. The market price of Innoveda common stock may decline as a result of the merger if: - the integration of Innoveda and PADS is unsuccessful; - Innoveda does not achieve the perceived benefits of the merger as rapidly or to the extent anticipated by financial or industry analysts; or - the effect of the merger on Innoveda's financial results is not consistent with the expectations of financial or industry analysts. IF INNOVEDA CANNOT SUCCESSFULLY INTEGRATE SUMMIT DESIGN AND VIEWLOGIC SYSTEMS, THE ANTICIPATED ADVANTAGES OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION BETWEEN INNOVEDA AND PADS MAY NOT BE REALIZED, IN FULL, IF AT ALL. Innoveda was formed by the merger of Viewlogic Systems and Summit Design in March 2000. The integration of Summit and Viewlogic will require the dedication of Innoveda management resources. This may distract management's attention from the effort to integrate PADS into Innoveda and to manage the day-to-day business of Innoveda. Retention of key employees by Innoveda and the combined company of Innoveda and PADS has been, and will remain, critical to ensure continued advancement, development and support of the companies' technologies, and ongoing sales and marketing efforts. The inability to retain key technical, sales or marketing personnel after the Summit and Viewlogic combination and the merger of Innoveda and PADS would adversely affect the combined company's business. FAILURE TO COMPLETE THE MERGER COULD NEGATIVELY IMPACT THE VALUE OF INNOVEDA COMMON STOCK AND PADS CAPITAL STOCK AND THE COMPANIES' RESPECTIVE OPERATING RESULTS. If the merger is not completed for any reason, Innoveda and PADS may be subject to a number of material risks, including: - either PADS or Innoveda may be required to pay the other a termination fee of $2,000,000, or actual damages, if greater; and - costs related to the merger, such as legal and accounting fees, must be paid even if the merger is not completed. If the merger is terminated and PADS' board of directors seeks another merger or business combination, PADS cannot be certain that it will be able to find a party willing to pay an equivalent or more attractive price than the price to be paid by Innoveda in the merger. UNCERTAINTIES ASSOCIATED WITH THE MERGER MAY CAUSE INNOVEDA AND PADS TO LOSE KEY PERSONNEL. Current and prospective Innoveda and PADS employees may experience uncertainty about their future roles with Innoveda. This uncertainty may adversely affect Innoveda's and PADS' ability to attract and retain key management, sales, marketing and technical personnel. 9 CUSTOMERS OF INNOVEDA AND PADS MAY DELAY OR CANCEL ORDERS AS A RESULT OF CONCERNS OVER THE MERGER. The announcement and closing of the merger could cause customers (including resellers) and potential customers of Innoveda and PADS to delay or cancel orders for products or services as a result of customer concerns and uncertainty over the evolution, integration and support of Innoveda's or PADS' products and services. Such a delay or cancellation of orders could have a material adverse effect on the business, operating results and financial condition of Innoveda or PADS. PADS MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ENTER INTO A MERGER OR BUSINESS COMBINATION WITH ANOTHER PARTY AT A FAVORABLE PRICE BECAUSE OF RESTRICTIONS IN THE MERGER AGREEMENT. While the merger agreement is in effect, the merger agreement prohibits PADS from entering into or soliciting, initiating or encouraging any inquiries or proposals that may lead to a proposal or offer for a merger, consolidation, business combination, sale of substantial assets, tender offer, sale of shares of capital stock or other similar transactions with any entity other than Innoveda. As a result of this prohibition, PADS may not be able to enter into an alternative transaction at a favorable price. PADS IS SUBJECT TO PENDING LITIGATION WHICH INNOVEDA WILL ASSUME IN THE MERGER AND MAY BE REQUIRED TO EXPEND SUBSTANTIAL FINANCIAL AND MANAGEMENT RESOURCES TO DEFEND ITS INTERESTS. Upon the consummation of the merger, Innoveda will assume responsibility for, and any potential liability arising from, an action filed against PADS on April 7, 2000 by Protel International and a wholly owned subsidiary of Protel alleging violations of the Lanham Act. This litigation, whether or not decided in favor of Innoveda, has been, and following the merger may continue to be, costly because of the expense of litigation and the attendant diversion of employee and management resources from the day-to-day operation of the business. The prospect of the award of substantial financial damages, however likely or unlikely, also must be considered. An adverse determination could result in treble damages under the Lanham Act and/or punitive damages under some of the state claims, subjecting Innoveda to significant liabilities. In addition, neither PADS nor its stockholders have undertaken any obligation under the merger agreement to indemnify Innoveda for any exposure from this litigation. Although Innoveda intends to defend against these claims vigorously, there can be no assurance that its efforts will be adequate. At this early state in the litigation, it is difficult to express an opinion as to its likely outcome. RISKS RELATING TO INNOVEDA IF INNOVEDA AND VIEWLOGIC CANNOT BE SUCCESSFULLY INTEGRATED, THE ANTICIPATED ADVANTAGES OF THE RECENT MERGER OF SUMMIT AND VIEWLOGIC MAY NOT BE REALIZED. Innoveda was formed by the merger of Viewlogic and Summit in March 2000. In order to improve profitability Innoveda will need to successfully integrate and streamline overlapping functions of Summit and Viewlogic. The desired cost savings may not be achieved and the integration of Summit's and Viewlogic's operations may not be accomplished smoothly, expeditiously or successfully. Each of Summit and Viewlogic has recently completed other business acquisitions. Integration of Summit and Viewlogic may be complicated by the need to integrate these acquisitions and combine multiple corporate cultures, as well. THE INTEGRATION OF SUMMIT'S AND VIEWLOGIC'S BUSINESSES MAY DISTRACT MANAGEMENT FROM ACHIEVING ITS OPERATIONAL OBJECTIVES WHICH COULD LIMIT INNOVEDA'S ABILITY TO RETAIN ITS EMPLOYEES The integration of Summit's and Viewlogic's businesses will require the dedication of management resources. This may distract management's attention from the day-to-day business of Innoveda. Employee uncertainty and lack of focus during integration may also disrupt the business of Innoveda. The retention by Innoveda of key employees is critical to ensure continued advancement, development 10 and support of Innoveda's technologies as well as on-going sales and marketing efforts. During the integration phase, competitors may intensify their efforts to recruit key employees. Innoveda may not be able to retain key technical, sales or marketing personnel which would adversely affect Innoveda's business. INNOVEDA'S QUARTERLY RESULTS WILL LIKELY FLUCTUATE AND AFFECT THE MARKET PRICE OF INNOVEDA'S COMMON STOCK. Innoveda's quarterly operating results and cash flows have fluctuated in the past and have fluctuated significantly in certain quarters. These fluctuations resulted from several factors, including, among others: - the size and timing of orders; - large one-time charges incurred as a result of an acquisition or consolidation; - seasonal factors; - the rate of acceptance of new products; - product, customer and channel mix; - lengthy sales cycles; and - level of sales and marketing staff. These fluctuations will likely continue in future periods because of the above factors. Additional factors potentially causing fluctuations include, among others: - corporate acquisitions, any resulting large one-time charges and the integration of acquired entities; - the timing of new product announcements and introductions by Innoveda and Innoveda's competitors; - the rescheduling or cancellation of customer orders; - the ability to continue to develop and introduce new products and product enhancements on a timely basis; - the level of competition; - purchasing, payment and pricing policies of competitors; - product quality issues; - currency fluctuations; and - general economic conditions. INNOVEDA'S REVENUE IS DIFFICULT TO FORECAST BECAUSE OF THE TIMING OF REVENUE RECOGNITION AND UNPREDICTABLE NATURE OF CUSTOMER BEHAVIOR. Innoveda's revenue is difficult to forecast for several reasons. Innoveda typically ships its products shortly after it receives orders. Consequently, product backlog at the beginning of any quarter has in the past represented only a small portion of that quarter's expected revenue. Correspondingly, license fee revenue in any quarter is difficult to forecast, because it is substantially dependent on orders booked and shipped in that quarter. Moreover, Innoveda generally recognizes a substantial portion of its revenue in the last month of a quarter, frequently in the latter part of that month. Any significant deferral of purchases of Innoveda's products could have a material adverse affect on its business, financial condition and results of operations in any particular quarter. If significant sales occur earlier than expected, operating results for subsequent quarters may also be adversely affected. Quarterly license fee revenue is difficult to forecast also, because Innoveda's typical sales cycle ranges from six to 11 nine months and varies substantially from customer to customer. In addition, Innoveda makes a portion of its sales through indirect channels, and these sales can be difficult to predict. SHORTFALLS IN REVENUE COULD ADVERSELY IMPACT QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS. Innoveda establishes its expenditure levels for product development, sales and marketing and other operating activities based primarily on its expectations as to future revenue. Because a high percentage of Innoveda's expenses are relatively fixed in the near term, if revenue in any quarter falls below expectations, expenditure levels could be disproportionately high as a percentage of revenue and materially adversely affect Innoveda's operating results. INNOVEDA'S OPERATING RESULTS WILL LIKELY FLUCTUATE, AND FLUCTUATION MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE STOCK PRICE OF INNOVEDA COMMON STOCK. Innoveda believes that its quarterly revenue, expenses and operating results will likely vary significantly from quarter to quarter. Innoveda also believes that period-to-period comparisons of Innoveda's operating results are not necessarily meaningful. As a result, you should not rely on these comparisons as indications of Innoveda's future performance. In addition, Innoveda operates with high gross margins, and a downturn in revenue has, in the past, had a significant impact on income from operations and net income. If Innoveda's results of operations are below investors' and market makers' expectation, it could have a material adverse effect on the market price of Innoveda's common stock. IF THE SYSTEM DESIGN PORTION OF THE ELECTRONIC DESIGN AUTOMATION INDUSTRY ON WHICH INNOVEDA PRIMARILY FOCUSES DOES NOT GROW, INNOVEDA'S BUSINESS MAY SUFFER. Innoveda intends to focus on the system-level, printed circuit board and electromechanical design automation markets while most major competitors focus their resources on the application-specific integrated circuit and integrated circuit design automation markets. Innoveda has adopted this focus, because it believes that the increased complexity of application-specific integrated circuits and other integrated circuits, and the resulting increase in design time, will cause electronic product manufacturers to differentiate their products at the system level. If the system design portion of the electronic design automation industry does not grow, it could have a material adverse effect on Innoveda's business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. INNOVEDA FACES INTENSE COMPETITION IN THE INDUSTRY AND MUST COMPETE SUCCESSFULLY IN VARIOUS ASPECTS OR ITS BUSINESS MAY SUFFER. The electronic design automation industry is highly competitive, and Innoveda expects competition to increase as other electronic design automation companies introduce products. In the electronic design automation market, Innoveda principally competes with Mentor Graphics and Cadence and a number of smaller firms. Indirectly, Innoveda also competes with other firms that offer alternative products. These other firms could also offer more directly competitive products in the future. Some of these companies have significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources and larger installed customer bases than Innoveda. Some of Innoveda's current and future competitors offer a more complete range of electronic design automation products. Innoveda competes on the basis of various factors including, among others: - product capabilities; - product performance; - price; - support of industry standards; - ease of use; 12 - first to market; and - customer technical support and service. Innoveda believes that its products are competitive overall with respect to these factors. However, in particular cases, Innoveda's competitors may offer products with functionality sought by Innoveda's prospective customers and which differs from those Innoveda offers. In addition, some competitors may achieve a marketing advantage by establishing formal alliances with other electronic design automation vendors. Further, the electronic design automation industry in general has experienced significant consolidation in recent years, and the acquisition of one of Innoveda's competitors by a larger, more established electronic design automation vendor could create a more significant competitor. Innoveda may not compete successfully against current and future competitors. Innoveda's current and future competitors may develop products comparable or superior to Innoveda's or more quickly adapt new technologies, evolving industry trends or customer requirements. Increased competition could result in price reductions, reduced margins and loss of market share, all of which could have a material adverse effect on Innoveda's business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. INNOVEDA'S DEPENDENCE ON THE ELECTRONICS INDUSTRY MAKES IT VULNERABLE TO GENERAL INDUSTRY-WIDE DOWNTURNS. Innoveda's future operating results may reflect substantial fluctuations from period to period as a consequence of industry patterns, general economic conditions affecting the timing of orders from customers and other factors. The electronics industry involves: - rapid technological change; - short product life cycles; - fluctuations in manufacturing capacity; and - pricing and margin pressures. Correspondingly, certain segments, including the computer, semiconductor, semiconductor test equipment and telecommunications industries, have experienced sudden and unexpected economic downturns. During these periods, capital spending often falls, and the number of design projects often decreases. Because Innoveda's sales depend upon capital spending trends and new design projects, negative factors affecting the electronics industry could have a material adverse effect on Innoveda's business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. INNOVEDA DEPENDS ON THIRD PARTIES FOR PRODUCT INTEROPERABILITY, AND THAT MAKES INNOVEDA VULNERABLE IF THESE THIRD PARTIES' REFUSE TO COOPERATE WITH INNOVEDA ON ECONOMICALLY FEASIBLE TERMS. Because Innoveda's products must interoperate, or be compatible, with electronic design automation products of other companies, Innoveda must have timely access to third party software to perform development and testing of products. Although Innoveda has established relationships with a variety of electronic design automation vendors to gain early access to new product information, any of these parties may terminate these relationships with limited notice. In addition, these relationships are with companies that are Innoveda's current or potential future competitors, including Mentor Graphics and Cadence. If any of these relationships terminate and Innoveda were unable to obtain, in a timely manner, information regarding modifications of third party products, Innoveda would not have the ability to modify its software products to interoperate with these third party products. As a result, Innoveda could experience a significant increase in development costs, the development process would take longer, product introductions would be delayed, and Innoveda's business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows could be materially adversely affected. 13 IF INNOVEDA CANNOT DEVELOP NEW PRODUCTS TO KEEP PACE WITH TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE AND EVOLVING INDUSTRY STANDARDS, INNOVEDA'S BUSINESS WILL SUFFER. If Innoveda cannot, for technological or other reasons, develop and introduce products in a timely manner in response to changing market conditions, industry standards or other customer requirements, particularly if Innoveda has pre-announced the product releases, its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows will be materially adversely affected. The electronic design automation industry is characterized by extremely rapid technological change, frequent new product introductions and evolving industry standards. The introduction of products with new technologies and the emergence of new industry standards can render existing products obsolete and unmarketable. In addition, customers in the electronic design automation industry require software products that allow them to reduce time to market, differentiate their products, improve their engineering productivity and reduce their design errors. Innoveda's future success will depend upon its ability to enhance its current products, develop and introduce new products that keep pace with technological developments and emerging industry standards and address the increasingly sophisticated needs of Innoveda's customers. Innoveda may not succeed in developing and marketing product enhancements or new products that respond to technological change or emerging industry standards. It may experience difficulties that could delay or prevent the successful development, introduction and marketing of these products. Innoveda's products may not adequately meet the requirements of the marketplace and achieve market acceptance. INNOVEDA'S SOFTWARE MAY HAVE DEFECTS. Innoveda's software products may contain errors that may not be detected until late in the product's life cycle. Innoveda has in the past discovered software errors in certain of its products and has experienced delays in shipment of products during the period required to correct these errors. Despite testing by Innoveda and by current and prospective customers, errors may persist, resulting in loss of, or delay in, market acceptance and sales, diversion of development resources, injury to Innoveda's reputation or increased service and warranty costs, any of which could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. INNOVEDA DEPENDS ON ITS DISTRIBUTORS TO SELL ITS PRODUCTS, ESPECIALLY INTERNATIONALLY, BUT THESE DISTRIBUTORS MAY NOT DEVOTE SUFFICIENT EFFORTS TO SELLING INNOVEDA'S PRODUCTS OR THEY MAY TERMINATE THEIR RELATIONSHIPS WITH INNOVEDA. DISTRIBUTORS' CONTINUED VIABILITY. If any of Innoveda's distributors fails, Innoveda's business may suffer. Innoveda relies on distributors for licensing and support of Innoveda's products, particularly in Japan and other parts of Asia. Innoveda depends on the relationships with its distributors to maintain or increase sales. Since Innoveda's products are used by skilled design engineers, distributors must possess sufficient technical, marketing and sales resources and must devote these resources to a lengthy sales cycle, customer training and product service and support. Only a limited number of distributors possess these resources. Accordingly, Innoveda depends on the continued viability and financial stability of these distributors. DISTRIBUTORS' EFFORTS IN SELLING INNOVEDA'S PRODUCTS. Innoveda's distributors may offer products of several different companies, including Innoveda's competitors. Innoveda's current distributors may not continue to market or service and support Innoveda's products effectively. Any distributor may discontinue to sell Innoveda's products or devote its resources to products of other companies. The loss of, or a significant reduction in, revenue from Innoveda's distributors could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. 14 JAPAN. Innoveda has exclusive distribution agreements with two distributors in Japan, which collectively cover all of Innoveda's products in Japan. If either of these distributors terminates its relationship with Innoveda, it could have a material adverse effect on Innoveda's business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. INNOVEDA FACES THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH INTERNATIONAL SALES AND OPERATIONS, INCLUDING ITS BUSINESS ACTIVITIES IN ISRAEL, EUROPE AND ASIA. International revenue and expenses represent a significant portion of Innoveda's total revenue and expenses and Innoveda expects this trend to continue. International sales and operations involve numerous risks, including, among others: - fluctuations in the value of the dollar relative to foreign currencies can make Innoveda's products and services more expensive in foreign markets or increase Innoveda's expenses; - tariff regulations and other trade barriers; - requirements for licenses, particularly with respect to the export of certain technologies; - collectability of accounts receivable; - changes in regulatory requirements; and - difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations and extended payment terms. These factors may have a material adverse effect on Innoveda's future international sales and operations and, consequently, on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. In addition, financial markets and economies in Asia have been experiencing adverse conditions and these adverse economic conditions may worsen. Demand for and sales of Innoveda's products in this region may decrease. In order to successfully expand international sales, Innoveda may need to establish additional foreign operations, hire additional personnel and recruit additional international distributors. This will require significant management attention and financial resources and could adversely affect Innoveda's operating margins. In addition, to the extent that Innoveda cannot effect these additions in a timely manner, Innoveda can only generate limited growth in international sales, if any. Innoveda may not maintain or increase international sales of its products, and failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. INNOVEDA MUST MANAGE GROWTH AND ACQUISITIONS EFFECTIVELY, OR ITS FINANCIAL CONDITION OR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS MAY SUFFER. Innoveda's ability to achieve significant growth will require it to implement and continually expand its operational and financial systems, recruit additional employees and train and manage current and future employees. Innoveda expects any growth to place a significant strain on its operational resources and systems. Failure to effectively manage any growth would have a material adverse effect on Innoveda's business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Innoveda regularly evaluates acquisition opportunities. Innoveda's future acquisitions could result in potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, the incurrence of debt and contingent liabilities and amortization expenses related to goodwill and other intangible assets, and large one-time charges which could materially adversely affect Innoveda's results of operations. Product and technology acquisitions entail numerous risks, including difficulties in the assimilation of acquired operations, technologies and products, diversion of management's attention to other business concern, risks of entering markets in which Innoveda has no or limited prior experience and potential loss of key employees of acquired companies. Innoveda may not integrate successfully the operations, personnel or products that have 15 been acquired or that might be acquired in the future, and the failure to do so could have a material adverse affect on its results of operations. INNOVEDA FACES THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH OPERATIONS IN ISRAEL, INCLUDING POLITICAL AND COORDINATION RISKS. POLITICAL RISKS AND GOVERNMENTAL REGULATIONS. Innoveda's research and development operations related to Visual HDL and Visual SLD products are located in Israel. Economic, political and military conditions may affect Innoveda's operations in that country. Hostilities involving Israel, for example, could materially adversely affect Innoveda's business, financial condition and results of operations. Restrictions on Innoveda's ability to manufacture or transfer outside of Israel any technology developed under research and development grants from the government of Israel further heightens the impact. COORDINATION RISKS. In addition, coordination with and management of the Israeli operations requires Innoveda to address differences in culture, regulations and time zones. Failure to successfully address these differences could disrupt Innoveda's operations. INNOVEDA DEPENDS ON ITS KEY PERSONNEL, AND FAILURE TO HIRE OR RETAIN QUALIFIED PERSONNEL COULD CAUSE INNOVEDA'S BUSINESS TO SUFFER. Innoveda's future success will depend in large part on its key technical, sales, marketing and management personnel and its ability to continue to attract and retain highly-skilled technical, sales, marketing and management personnel. Innoveda's business could be seriously harmed if it lost the services of its President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, William J. Herman, or if it fails to attract and retain other key personnel. Competition for personnel in the software industry, including the electronic design automation industry, is intense. Thus, over the past year, Innoveda's employee turnover rate has increased significantly. Innoveda has in the past experienced difficulty in recruiting qualified personnel. Innoveda may fail to retain its key personnel or attract and retain other qualified technical, sales, marketing and management personnel in the future. The loss of any key employees or the inability to attract and retain additional qualified personnel may have a material adverse effect on Innoveda's business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Additions of new personnel and departures of existing personnel, particularly in key positions, can be disruptive and can result in departures of additional personnel, which could have a material adverse effect on Innoveda's business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. IF INNOVEDA FAILS TO EXPAND AND TRAIN ITS SALES AND MARKETING ORGANIZATIONS, ITS BUSINESS MAY SUFFER. Innoveda's success will depend on its ability to build and expand its sales and marketing organizations. Innoveda's future success will depend in part on its ability to hire, train and retain qualified sales and marketing personnel and the ability of these new persons to rapidly and effectively transition into their new positions. Competition for qualified sales and marketing personnel is intense, and Innoveda may not be able to hire, train and retain the number of sales and marketing personnel needed, which would have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. INNOVEDA MUST CONTINUE TO ADD VALUE TO ITS CURRENT PRODUCTS TO SERVE ITS INSTALLED CUSTOMER BASE OR ITS REVENUE DERIVED FROM MAINTENANCE AGREEMENTS WILL DECREASE. A substantial portion of Innoveda's revenue is derived from maintenance agreements for existing products. In order to maintain that revenue, Innoveda must continue to offer those customers updates for those products or convert those customers to new products. Innoveda may not be able to do so. During 1999 several major customers did not renew their maintenance contracts due to the fact they were using Innoveda's products in applications related to integrated circuit design, which is no longer 16 fully supported by Innoveda, and to a lesser extent a number of customers migrated their products from the version based on the Unix operating system to the version based on the Windows/NT operating system, which have lower maintenance prices. Innoveda can give no assurances that this trend will not continue. INNOVEDA HAS SUBSTANTIAL SECURED DEBT, WHICH MAY SUBSTANTIALLY RESTRICT INNOVEDA'S ABILITY TO REACT TO THE RAPIDLY CHANGING ENVIRONMENT OF THE ELECTRONIC DESIGN AUTOMATION INDUSTRY, AND WHICH IT MAY NOT BE ABLE TO REPLACE. As of July 1, 2000, Innoveda had cash and cash equivalents of $21.7 million and had borrowings of approximately $10.0 million under its credit facility. Borrowings under the credit facility are secured by substantially all of Innoveda's assets. The credit facility contains limitations on additional indebtedness and capital expenditures, and includes financial covenants, which include but are not limited to the maintenance of minimum levels of profits, interest and debt service coverage ratios and maximum leverage ratios. Collectively, these limitations and covenants may substantially restrict the flexibility of Innoveda's management in quickly adjusting its financial and operational strategies to react to changing economic and business conditions and may compromise Innoveda's ability to react to the rapidly evolving environment of the electronic design automation industry. To avoid default under this credit facility, Innoveda must remain in compliance with these limitations and covenants and make all required repayments or Innoveda must obtain replacement financing. Innoveda may not be able to secure replacement financing on terms acceptable to it or to its stockholders, or at all. In the event of a default by Innoveda, Innoveda's lender may enforce its security interest and take possession of substantially all or some of Innoveda's assets. RISKS RELATING TO PADS As a stand-alone company, PADS' business is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including those described below. PADS stockholders should understand that these and other risks will continue to apply to PADS' business if the merger is not completed. PADS' QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS HAVE HISTORICALLY FLUCTUATED, AND PADS EXPECTS THAT THEY WILL CONTINUE TO FLUCTUATE. Factors that could cause these fluctuations include: - the size, number and timing of orders; - timing and market acceptance of new products or product enhancements by PADS or its competitors; - changes in PADS' operating expenses; - competition; - the mix of software and service revenue in any period; and - general economic and market conditions. PADS generally ships products within a short time after it receives an order. PADS usually obtains and ships orders in the same quarter. However, PADS did have a backlog of orders at the three months ended March 31, 2000. PADS frequently ships more products in the third month of each quarter than in either of the first two months of the quarter. Similarly, PADS often ships more products toward the end of the third month than earlier in the month. PADS has in the past, and may in the future, realize higher revenue in the fourth quarter due to the seasonal purchasing patterns of its customers and its year-end sales compensation incentives, which are typical in technology companies. 17 Most of PADS' expenses, particularly employee compensation and rent, are relatively fixed. As a result, variations in the timing of revenue could cause significant variations in its operating results from quarter to quarter and could result in quarterly losses. As a result of these factors, quarter-to-quarter comparisons of its operating results are not necessarily meaningful. PADS RELIES ON REVENUE FROM THE POWERPCB PRODUCT AS ITS LARGEST SOURCE OF REVENUE. Since January 1996, a majority of PADS' revenue has come from its PowerPCB product and providing related support and maintenance services. PADS anticipates that PowerPCB will provide its largest source of revenue for the foreseeable future. PADS believes that many factors will be necessary for PowerPCB to continue to maintain broad market acceptance. These factors include performance, price, interoperability with existing systems and customer satisfaction with our technical, service and support capabilities. PADS' success also depends directly on its ability to introduce new versions of PowerPCB or other products to meet the market's evolving needs for printed circuit board layout design software. PADS' revenue from PowerPCB as a percentage of total revenue was 62% in the three months ended March 31, 2000, 60% in 1999, 74% in 1998 and 73% in 1997. PADS IS DEPENDENT ON RESELLERS AS A PRIMARY DISTRIBUTION CHANNEL. PADS relies on resellers (such as value added resellers and distributors) as a primary distribution channel. PADS' revenue from resellers as a percentage of total revenue was 51% in the three months ended March 31, 2000, 51% in 1999, 58% in 1998 and 65% in 1997. PADS' success depends in large part on its ability to maintain its existing reseller arrangements and establish additional reseller relationships. The termination of any significant reseller relationships or any significant reduction in sales through its resellers could have a material adverse effect on PADS' business, operating results and financial condition. PADS' reliance on resellers as a primary distribution channel has many related risks. PADS' resellers generally install and support products offered by other companies as well as its products, and therefore PADS must compete for the focus and sales efforts of its resellers. PADS does not directly control its resellers, and they can discontinue marketing PADS' products at any time. Additionally, selling through indirect channels limits its direct contact with end-users. As a result, its ability to forecast revenue accurately, evaluate customer satisfaction and recognize emerging customer requirements may be hindered. Any of these factors could have a material adverse effect on its business, operating results and financial condition. PADS IS DEPENDENT ON A THIRD-PARTY DEVELOPMENT CONTRACTOR. Since 1991, PADS has contracted with Milena to perform software design, development, quality assurance and bug fixes on its products. Milena is a Massachusetts corporation from which PADS currently contracts 36 software developers and quality assurance engineers who are based in Russia. The sole owner of Milena is a PADS' employee who serves as Director of International Development. PADS' current agreement with Milena expires on January 31, 2002 and can be terminated by either party with or without cause upon six months' prior notice. The services provided by Milena are critical to PADS' success. If PADS loses access to the software developers employed by Milena, PADS may be unable to find alternative sources, on a timely and cost-effective basis, for the services provided by Milena. Uncertainties relating to third-party software development services in foreign countries give rise to additional risks. These risks include potential misappropriation of PADS' intellectual property rights, potential economic, political and military instability and changing legal and regulatory conditions. While Milena has obtained non-disclosure and assignment of inventions agreements from each current employee who has performed work for PADS, these agreements may not be respected by Russian law. 18 If its intellectual property is misappropriated, PADS may have little or no recourse against Milena or its employees. PADS IS DEPENDENT ON THE ELECTRONICS AND OTHER INDUSTRIES. PADS depends on expenditures by companies in the electronics and other industries that develop products incorporating electronics. During economic downturns, PADS' customers may reduce or curtail expenditures, decrease design projects or experience production over-capacity and price erosion. PADS' operations may in the future reflect substantial fluctuations from period to period as a consequence of these industry patterns, general economic conditions affecting the timing of orders from customers and other factors affecting spending by our customers. THE ELECTRONIC DESIGN AUTOMATION SOFTWARE INDUSTRY IS INTENSELY COMPETITIVE AND IS CHARACTERIZED BY CONTINUED AND RAPID ADVANCES IN TECHNOLOGY. Many of PADS' current and potential competitors have longer operating histories, significantly greater financial, technical, product development and marketing resources, greater name recognition and larger customer bases than PADS. PADS' competitors may be able to develop products comparable or superior to its products, adapt more quickly to new technologies, evolving trends or customer requirements or devote greater resources to developing, promoting and selling their products than PADS does. PADS' principal competitors are Cadence Design Systems, Mentor Graphics and Zuken-Redac. PADS' current competitors have established and may establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties to increase the ability of their products to address the needs of its existing and prospective customers. As a result of these alliances, PADS could face increased competition. Moreover, the electronic design automation software industry has become increasingly concentrated in recent years due to numerous mergers and acquisitions. PADS expects that competition may increase as a result of the increased consolidation. Competition could cause PADS to lose market share, increase expenditures or reduce prices, any of which could have a material adverse effect on its business, operating results and financial condition. PADS FACES RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS. PADS' revenue from international sales as a percentage of total revenue was 23% in the three months ended March 31, 2000, 25% in 1999, 25% in 1998 and 33% in 1997. PADS' international revenue is generated primarily by selling products and services into Europe and Asia. PADS' international business may be subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties not generally encountered in the United States, including: - fluctuations in economic conditions in foreign countries; - seasonal purchasing patterns in different markets; - increased costs associated with international marketing efforts; - longer payment cycles; - difficulties enforcing contractual obligations and intellectual property rights, potential misappropriation of its intellectual property or difficulties in obtaining U.S. export licenses; and - unforeseen changes in legal and regulatory requirements. PADS' international sales are primarily denominated in U.S. dollars. An increase in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies could make its products relatively more expensive and potentially less competitive in those markets. In addition, a material portion of its international sales 19 are generated in Asia. Asian countries have recently experienced economic turmoil. Asian economic turmoil could continue to result in increased price competition, reduced sales to our customers in Asia or other problems with respect to its business in Asia. IF PADS' BLAZEROUTER PRODUCT, INTRODUCED IN APRIL 2000, DOES NOT ACHIEVE MARKET ACCEPTANCE, THEN PADS REVENUES MAY BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED. PADS released its BlazeRouter product in April 2000. This product removes PADS' reliance on Cadence Design Systems for the distribution of router technology. Since December 1995, PADS has distributed versions of Cadence's Specctra autorouter with every copy of PADS' PowerPCB and PowerBGA products. As of April 30, 2000, PADS ceased distribution of Cadence's Specctra autorouter and has instead distributed a copy of PADS BlazeRouter with every copy of PowerPCB and PowerBGA products. PADS business, operating results and financial condition will be materially and adversely affected if BlazeRouter does not enjoy market acceptance, PADS is unable to introduce timely and enhanced versions of BlazeRouter or if new versions do not meet customer needs. PADS IS DEPENDENT ON KEY PERSONNEL AND MUST CONTINUE TO MANAGE ITS GROWTH. PADS' business has grown significantly in size and complexity in recent years. Total revenue increased to $25.7 million for 1999, from $21.9 million in 1998 and $17 million in 1997. The number of PADS' employees increased from 60 on January 1, 1997 to 151 on June 30, 2000. Total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was $7.2 million. PADS anticipates that continued growth, if any, will require it to recruit and hire many new research and development, sales and marketing and administrative personnel. Competition for the limited number of qualified personnel, especially software engineers, is intense. PADS has at times experienced, and PADS continues to experience, difficulty in hiring qualified personnel. In addition, competitors may attempt to recruit its key employees. PADS' employees are not bound by employment or noncompetition agreements or covered by "key man" life insurance policies. The loss of any key management, technical, sales or marketing personnel or the failure to hire and retain such personnel successfully in the future could have a material adverse effect on its business, operating results and financial condition. In addition, PADS relies on the continued contributions by Milena's software development and quality assurance engineers. PADS' ability to compete effectively and to manage future growth, if any, will depend on its ability to continue to implement and improve its products on a timely basis and to expand, train, motivate and manage its work force. PADS' personnel, systems, procedures and controls may be unable to support its operations adequately. PADS MUST ADAPT TO TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE AND CONTINUE TO DEVELOP NEW PRODUCTS. PADS' success depends in part on its ability to develop new and enhanced software and related products to meet rapidly evolving requirements for interconnect design software. Factors that could materially and adversely affect its business, operating results and financial condition include: - rapidly changing technology; - evolving industry standards, including both formal and de facto standards relating to electronic design automation software; - emerging competition; - changing customer requirements; - failing to anticipate or respond adequately to changing market conditions; 20 - delays in product development or introduction; and - other factors that could cause PADS' customers to delay or decide against purchasing PADS' products. Furthermore, PADS' software could contain errors or "bugs" that could adversely affect its performance and cause revenue losses due to delays in releasing products, costs of correcting the bugs or injury to PADS' business reputation. PADS FACES RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH RECENT ACQUISITIONS. PADS has in the past acquired businesses that could provide additional new products, additional industry expertise, a broader client base or an expanded geographic presence. In May 1997, PADS acquired the assets of HyperLynx, a provider of signal integrity and electromagnetic compliance analysis software for interconnect design. In August 1998, PADS acquired Advanced CAM Technologies, a provider of computer aided manufacturing tools. Acquisitions involve a number of operating risks that could have a material adverse effect on PADS' business, operating results and financial condition. These risks include the diversion of management attention to assimilate the operations, products and personnel of the acquired companies and the potential loss of key employees of the acquired companies. Furthermore, PADS may be unable to identify and acquire businesses on reasonable terms or operate acquired businesses profitably. PADS FACES RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH PROTECTING ITS PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. PADS' success depends heavily on its proprietary technology. PADS relies principally on trade secret, copyright and trademark laws, nondisclosure and other contractual agreements and technical measures to protect its technology. For example, PADS generally enters into confidentiality and assignment of inventions contracts with its employees. PADS also enters into license agreements with its distributors and customers. PADS' software is shipped with a software security device that limits software access to authorized users. In addition, PADS does not license or release its source code to its customers or resellers. However, PADS discloses its source code to a third-party software contractor under an agreement intended to protect its intellectual property. Nonetheless, these steps may not be effective in deterring misappropriation of PADS' technology. These steps may also not preclude competitors from developing products with functionality or features similar to our products. In addition, PADS does not currently have any patents. Furthermore, third parties could independently develop competing technologies that are more functional or less expensive than PADS' technologies. PADS may be subject to additional risks where intellectual property laws are not well developed or are difficult to enforce. Legal protections of PADS' proprietary rights may be ineffective in such countries. PADS may initiate claims against third parties to establish the validity of its proprietary rights, or infringement claims could be asserted against PADS and its customers in the future. Any claims or litigation, with or without merit, could be time consuming and costly, divert management resources, cause product shipment delays or require PADS to enter into royalty or licensing arrangements. Such royalty or licensing arrangements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to PADS, if at all. 21 CAUTIONARY STATEMENT CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Innoveda and PADS believe this document and the documents incorporated by reference herein contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

In addition to the risk factors and other important factors discussed elsewhere in this document and the documents which are incorporated by reference into this consent solicitation statement/prospectus, you should understand that the following important factors could affect the future results of Innoveda and could cause results to differ materially from those suggested by the forward- looking statements: - increased competitive pressures, both domestically and internationally, which may affect sales of Innoveda's products and services and impede Innoveda's ability to maintain its market share; - changes in United States, global or regional economic conditions which may affect sales of Innoveda's products and services and increase costs associated with distributing such products; - changes in United States and global financial and equity markets, including significant interest rate fluctuations, which may increase the cost of external financing for Innoveda's operations, and currency fluctuations, which may negatively impact Innoveda's reportable income; - changes in laws or regulations, third party relations and approvals and decisions of courts, regulators and governmental bodies which may adversely affect Innoveda's business or ability to compete; and - other risks and uncertainties as may be detailed from time to time in Innoveda's public announcements and Securities and Exchange Commission filings. This list of factors that may affect future performance and the accuracy of forward-looking statements is illustrative, but by no means exhaustive. Accordingly, all forward-looking statements should be evaluated with the understanding of their inherent uncertainty. 22 SELECTED HISTORICAL CONSOLIDATED AND UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION The following selected historical annual financial data of Innoveda and PADS has been derived from their respective historical financial statements and should be read in conjunction with those consolidated financial statements and the notes related to those financial statements. The consolidated financial statements for Innoveda for the fiscal years ended January 1, 2000, January 2, 1999, and December 31, 1997 are incorporated by reference and for PADS for the fiscal years ended December 31, 1999 are included elsewhere in this consent solicitation statement/prospectus. The financial information of Innoveda for the fiscal years presented prior to December 31, 1997 represent revenue and expenses derived from the historical financial statements of an entity of which the Innoveda business was previously a part. Innoveda does not have balance sheet data for its business prior to December 31, 1997. For further discussion on this point, please refer to Innoveda Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations on page 63. Innoveda was created by the merger of Summit Design, and Viewlogic Systems, which was consummated on March 23, 2000. The merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition as former shareholders of Viewlogic owned a majority of the outstanding capital stock of Summit subsequent to the merger. Therefore, for accounting purposes, Viewlogic is deemed to have acquired Summit. All pre-merger financial information presented represents the financial results for Viewlogic. The unaudited selected historical financial information as of April 1, 2000, and for the three month periods ended April 1, 2000 and April 3, 1999 of Innoveda and the unaudited selected historical financial information of PADS as of March 31, 2000, and for the three month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 are derived from their respective unaudited financial statements and should be read in conjunction with those consolidated financial statements and the notes related to those financial statements which are incorporated by reference or included elsewhere, in this consent solicitation statement/prospectus, and in the opinion of Innoveda's and PADS' respective management, reflect all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the unaudited interim financial information. The results of operations for those interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year. The business combination will be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet data at April 1, 2000 includes the accounts of Innoveda on a historical cost basis and the assets and liabilities of PADS at acquisition cost, allocated by relative estimated fair value as of the date of the acquisition. The estimated purchase price allocations have been made on a preliminary basis and may change as additional information becomes known. The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations data have been presented as if the business combination took place at the beginning of the periods presented. All of the unaudited pro forma combined condensed historical financial data has been derived from the unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this consent solicitation statement/prospectus and should be read in conjunction with those financial statements and related notes. The pro forma information is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results or financial position that would have occurred if the business combination had been consummated at the beginning of the periods presented, nor is it necessarily indicative of future operating results or financial position. 23 INNOVEDA HISTORICAL CONDENSED FINANCIAL DATA (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA) AT AND FOR YEAR ENDED ---------------------------------------------------- AT AND FOR THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, JANUARY JANUARY ------------------- ------------------------------ 2, 1, APRIL 3, APRIL 1, 1995 1996 1997(1) 1999 2000 1999 2000 -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS DATA: Total revenue.................... $74,981 $69,626 $ 63,987 $55,237 $53,499 $13,984 $ 14,385 Total costs and operating expenses....................... 61,462 60,770 65,983 43,385 51,317 12,329 19,584 Income (loss) from operations.... 13,519 8,856 (1,996) 11,852 2,182 1,655 (5,199) Net income (loss)................

(2) Innoveda's pro forma combined book value per share is computed by dividing pro forma stockholders' equity by the pro forma number of shares of Innoveda common stock which would have been outstanding had the merger been consummated as of each balance sheet date. (3) PADS' equivalent pro forma combined book value per share are calculated by multiplying Innoveda's pro forma combined per share amounts and book value by the expected exchange ratio of approximately 1.9 shares of Innoveda common stock. 27 MARKET PRICE INFORMATION INNOVEDA MARKET PRICE INFORMATION Innoveda common stock has traded on the Nasdaq National Market under the symbol "INOV" since March 24, 2000. From October 18, 1996 through March 23, 2000, it traded under the symbol "SMMT." The table below sets forth, for the periods indicated, the reported high and low sale prices per share of Innoveda common stock on the Nasdaq National Market.

PADS MARKET PRICE INFORMATION Because there is no established trading market for shares of PADS capital stock, information with respect to the market prices of PADS capital stock is omitted. RECENT CLOSING PRICES The following table sets forth the closing per share sale price of Innoveda common stock as reported on the Nasdaq National Market on June 1, 2000, the last full trading day prior to the public announcement that Innoveda and PADS had entered into the merger agreement, and August 9, 2000, the last full trading day for which closing prices were available at the time of the printing of this consent solicitation statement/prospectus.
INNOVEDA DATE COMMON STOCK ---- ------------ June 1, 2000................................................ $ 4.375 August 9, 2000.............................................. $4.4375
PADS stockholders are advised to obtain current market quotations for Innoveda common stock. No assurance can be given as to the market prices of Innoveda common stock at any time before the consummation of the merger or as to the market price of Innoveda common stock at any time after the merger. Because the number of shares of Innoveda common stock that PADS stockholders and optionholders will receive is fixed, PADS stockholders and optionholders will not receive additional shares of Innoveda common stock if the market price of Innoveda common stock decreases which 28 could occur before the merger becomes effective. In the event the market price of Innoveda common stock decreases or increases prior to the consummation of the merger, the value of the Innoveda common stock to be received in the merger in exchange for PADS common stock would correspondingly decrease or increase. DIVIDENDS In connection with its October 1998 recapitalization, Viewlogic paid to Synopsys, then its sole stockholder, a cash dividend of an aggregate of $30 million. Other than this cash dividend, Innoveda has never declared or paid cash dividends on its common stock. Innoveda currently intends to retain earnings, if any, to support its growth strategy and does not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Payment of future dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of the Innoveda board of directors after taking into account various factors, including Innoveda's financial condition, operating results, current and anticipated cash needs and plans for expansion. PADS has never declared or paid cash dividends on its common stock. PADS currently intends to retain earnings, if any, to support its growth strategy and does not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. 29 THE MERGER THIS SECTION OF THE CONSENT SOLICITATION STATEMENT/ PROSPECTUS DESCRIBES THE MATERIAL ASPECTS OF THE PROPOSED MERGER. THE SUMMARY DESCRIPTION IS NOT COMPLETE AND IS QUALIFIED IN ITS ENTIRETY BY REFERENCE TO THE MERGER AGREEMENT. WE URGE ALL PADS STOCKHOLDERS TO READ THE MERGER AGREEMENT IN ITS ENTIRETY FOR A MORE COMPLETE DESCRIPTION OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE MERGER AND RELATED MATTERS. BACKGROUND OF THE MERGER During the period from June 1997 through December 1999, William J. Herman, the Chief Executive Officer of Viewlogic Systems, now a wholly owned subsidiary of Innoveda, and other representatives of Viewlogic held numerous meetings with Richard T. Finigan, then the Chief Executive Officer of PADS, and other representatives of PADS. The primary purpose of those meetings was to discuss the status of PADS product development efforts and various strategic relationships, including the merger of the two companies and the acquisition of PADS by Viewlogic. However, those discussions were primarily exploratory in nature and did not lead to any material negotiations towards either the merger of the two companies or the acquisition of PADS by Viewlogic. From November 1999 through March 2000, Mr. Herman had numerous discussions with various individual members of the Viewlogic (and, subsequent to March 23, 2000, Innoveda) board of directors regarding the possible acquisition of PADS. On November 16, 1999, Mr. Herman met with Mr. Finigan and Kenneth L. Tepper, then PADS' Vice President of Research and Development. Mr. Finigan informed Mr. Herman that PADS' proposed initial public stock offering was "on-hold" and discussed PADS' desire to look seriously at a merger or acquisition opportunity with Viewlogic. Mr. Finigan also informed Mr. Herman that Mr. Tepper would be named PADS' President and Chief Executive Officer in the coming weeks. On November 29, 1999 there was a meeting to review the status of the PADS' router product. The meeting was attended by Richard Lucier, Viewlogic's Chief Operating Officer, Larry Ruben, Viewlogic's Vice President of Research and Development, Brad Griffin, one of Viewlogic's engineering managers, Mr. Tepper, Mark Gallant, PADS' Technical Definition Manager for the router, and Vitaly Bystrov, PADS' Engineering Project Leader for the router.

On April 13, 2000, Mr. Tepper met with the PADS board of directors in Japan to review the status of the proposed merger with Innoveda and evaluate other business combinations, the electronic design automation market in general and the competitive prospects for the combined company if PADS merged with Innoveda. On April 26, 2000, Mr. Herman met with Mr. Tepper to discuss the transaction structure and the involvement of Kyoden Company, PADS' majority stockholder. Issues pertaining to Japanese distributors, sales compensation, severance payments for terminated employees, and management were discussed. On May 1, 2000, Mr. Herman met with Mr. Tepper. They discussed the management of the combined company and the requirement that PADS retain a new law firm for this transaction due to the fact that PADS' current law firm was also representing Innoveda. On May 4, 2000, Innoveda and PADS entered into a confidentiality agreement and an agreement to work exclusively with each other towards the closing of the acquisition through May 31, 2000. Subsequently, Innoveda instructed its outside counsel, Hale and Dorr LLP, to draft a merger agreement and other appropriate documentation. From May 8, 2000 through June 2, 2000, representatives of Innoveda and PADS and their respective legal counsel were in frequent contact to negotiate the terms of the merger agreement and the related definitive documentation, including: - the indemnification obligations of Kyoden; - the conditions required for termination of the merger agreement and related termination fees; - the representations and warranties to be made by each of Innoveda and PADS; and - the covenants regarding the conduct of PADS' business during the period after the execution of the merger agreement and prior to the completion of the merger. On May 10, 2000, Hiroshi Hashimoto, the Chairman of the Board of Directors of PADS and President of Kyoden, Nastada Kushitani, PADS' Senior Vice President, Mr. Tepper and Mr. Herman met to discuss the proposed transaction.

On June 2, 2000, Mr. Herman and Mr. Tepper met and executed the merger agreement. INNOVEDA'S REASONS FOR THE MERGER The Innoveda board of directors unanimously voted to approve the merger. The decision of the Innoveda board of directors was based on several potential benefits of the merger that it believes will contribute to the success of Innoveda as a growing company in the electronic design automation industry. These potential benefits include: - The products of the two companies are highly complementary, with little overlap, allowing Innoveda to offer a more complete set of software tools for the design and testing of printed circuit boards, including products for design entry, simulation, layout, routing, analysis and interface to manufacturing. - The PADS' BlazeRouter product is based on the latest router technology and allows Innoveda to integrate its high-speed analysis products in order to develop a product for high-performance printed circuit board design. - The business combination offers Innoveda the opportunity to port the PADS' products which are primarily designed for use on Windows-based personal computers for use on UNIX-based workstations, thus providing for a wider distribution of those products. - Combining Innoveda's talented and experienced research and development team with that of PADS will create a stronger basis for the development of future products. - The combined company will have greater financial strength. The Innoveda board of directors reviewed a number of factors in evaluating the merger, including, but not limited to, the following: - the technical capabilities and status of the PADS' router product; - historical information concerning Innoveda's and PADS' respective business focus, financial performance and condition, operations, technology and management; - Innoveda management's view of the financial condition, results of operations and businesses of Innoveda and PADS before and after giving effect to the merger and the determination by the Innoveda board of directors of the merger's positive effect on stockholder value; - current financial market conditions and historical stock market prices, volatility and trading information; - the consideration PADS stockholders will receive in the merger in light of comparable merger transactions; - the terms of the merger agreement, including the indemnification obligations of Kyoden; - the impact of the merger on Innoveda's customers and employees; - the results of the due diligence investigation of PADS conducted by Innoveda's management, accountants and counsel; and - the expectation that the merger will be accounted for as a purchase. 32 The Innoveda board of directors also identified and considered a number of potentially negative factors in its deliberations concerning the merger including the following: - the risk that the potential benefits of the merger may not be realized; - the possibility that the merger may not be consummated, even if approved by the PADS stockholders; and - other applicable risks described in this consent solicitation statement/prospectus under "Risk Factors." The Innoveda board of directors concluded, however, that, on balance, the merger's potential benefits to Innoveda and its stockholders outweigh the associated risks. The discussion of the information and factors considered by the Innoveda board of directors is not intended to be exhaustive. In view of the variety of factors considered in connection with its evaluation of the merger, the Innoveda board of directors did not find it practicable to, and did not quantify or otherwise assign relative weight to, the specific factors considered in reaching its determination. PADS' REASONS FOR THE MERGER; RECOMMENDATION OF THE PADS BOARD OF DIRECTORS The PADS board of directors has determined that the terms of the merger and the merger agreement are fair to, and in the best interests of, PADS and its stockholders. Accordingly, the PADS board of directors has approved the merger agreement and the consummation of the merger and unanimously recommends that you approve the merger. In reaching its decision, the PADS board of directors identified several potential benefits of the merger, the most important of which included: - an opportunity for a strategic step forward in PADS becoming a leading provider of electronic product design solutions; - opportunities to realize significant benefits and long-term value to PADS stockholders resulting from the combination of PADS' printed circuit board technology together with Innoveda's electronic design automation expertise, Innoveda's greater size and resources and the complementary nature of PADS' and Innoveda's products and services; - the potential for accelerating new product development and features for current and future electronic product design solutions; - opportunities for PADS to offer its printed circuit board design technology to a larger, more diverse customer base; - the potential of an increased ability to compete effectively in an intensely competitive, rapidly consolidating industry; - the increased trading liquidity for PADS stockholders by receiving shares of Innoveda common stock; and - the expectation that the merger will be treated as a reorganization to PADS and its stockholders. The decision of the PADS board of directors was the result of its careful consideration of a range of strategic alternatives in pursuit of PADS' long-term business strategy, including potential business combinations and relationships with Innoveda and other companies. In reaching its decision to approve the merger, the PADS board of directors consulted with PADS' senior management, as well as its legal counsel and independent accountants. Among the factors considered by the PADS board of directors in its deliberations were the following: - the current and prospective economic and industry environment in which PADS operates; - the continued trend for consolidation in the electronic design automation industry; - the ability of larger industry participants to increase market share; 33 - the trend of such companies toward offering a complete spectrum of electronic design automation products and services; - the historical information concerning PADS', Innoveda's and certain other potential acquirors' respective businesses, prospects, financial performance and condition, operations, technology, management and competitive position, including public reports of Innoveda filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission; - the complementary nature of the technology, products, services and customer base of PADS and Innoveda; - the consideration to be received by PADS stockholders in the proposed merger and the relationship between the market value of the Innoveda common stock to be issued in exchange for the PADS common stock and a comparison of comparable merger transactions; - the prospects of PADS as an independent company; - the potential for parties, other than Innoveda, to acquire or enter into strategic relationships with PADS; - the comparison of financial condition, results of operations and business of PADS before and after giving effect to a merger with each potential acquiror; - financial market conditions and historical stock market prices, volatility and trading information; - the belief that the terms of the merger agreement are reasonable; - the impact of the merger on PADS' customers and employees; - the results of the due diligence investigation of Innoveda conducted by PADS' management and financial advisors; and - the fairness and reasonableness to PADS of the terms of the merger agreement and related agreements, which were the product of extensive arm's length negotiations. In particular, the PADS board of directors considered: - the events triggering payment of a termination fee to be paid to Innoveda; - the limitations on PADS' ability to negotiate an alternative transaction with other companies; - the potential effect of these provisions on PADS receiving alternative proposals that could be superior to the merger; and - the limitations on the conduct of PADS' business during the period after the execution of the merger agreement and before the closing of the merger. Because the PADS board of directors conducted an extensive review of its strategic alternatives prior to entering into the merger agreement, and because the merger provisions of the reorganization agreement were required by Innoveda in order for it to enter into the merger agreement, the PADS board of directors determined that the value for PADS stockholders represented by the merger justified the limitations and restrictions imposed on PADS by the merger agreement. The PADS board of directors also identified and considered a number of uncertainties and risks concerning the merger, including: - the financial risks resulting from the fact that the number of shares issued to PADS' stockholders and optionholders will not be adjusted for changes in the market price of Innoveda common stock; - the risk that the merger might not be consummated; - the risk that the benefits sought in the merger might not be fully achieved; - the difficulty of and risks associated with the integration of a different management and organizational structure; 34 - the risk that PADS might suffer employee attrition or fail to attract key personnel due to uncertainties associated with the merger; - the risks that PADS might face if it remains independent; and - the other applicable risks described in this consent solicitation statement/prospectus under "Risk Factors." As a result of the foregoing considerations, the PADS board of directors determined that the potential advantages of the merger outweighed the benefits of remaining as a separate company. The PADS board of directors believes that the combined company will have far greater opportunity than PADS alone to compete in its industry. In view of the variety of factors considered in connection with its evaluation of the merger, the PADS board of directors did not find it practicable to, and accordingly did not, quantify or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors considered in reaching its determination. In addition, many of the factors contained elements which may have both a positive and negative effect on the fairness of the merger. Except as described above, the PADS board of directors, as a whole, did not attempt to analyze each individual factor separately to determine its impact on the fairness of the merger. Consequently, individual members of the PADS board of directors may have given different weight to different factors and may have viewed differently each factor's effect on the fairness determination. FOR THE REASONS DISCUSSED ABOVE, THE PADS BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED THE MERGER AND HAS DETERMINED THAT THE MERGER IS ADVISABLE AND FAIR TO, AND IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF, PADS AND ITS STOCKHOLDERS AND UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT PADS STOCKHOLDERS ADOPT THE MERGER AGREEMENT AND APPROVE THE MERGER. INTERESTS OF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS OF PADS IN THE MERGER In considering the recommendation of the PADS board of directors with respect to the merger, you should be aware that some executive officers and directors of PADS have interests in the merger that are different from, or in addition to, your interests as a stockholder of PADS generally. The PADS board of directors was aware of these potential conflicts and considered them in approving the merger. Following the completion of the merger, Kenneth L. Tepper, the President and Chief Executive Officer of PADS will be given a senior management position with Innoveda. He will receive a base compensation nominally higher than his current compensation, and he will be eligible to receive a bonus based upon accomplishing determined management objectives. In addition, Hiroshi Hashimoto, the Chairman of the Board of Directors of PADS, will become a director of Innoveda. Following the completion of the merger, James Gennari, the Vice President of Finance of PADS, will continue to receive his current salary and medical and dental benefits for nine months and will receive accelerated vesting of his stock options. In contemplation of the closing of the merger, Naotada Kushitani, a Senior Vice President and director of PADS, has entered into a separation agreement with PADS pursuant to which he will remain an employee of PADS until December 29, 2000 and, following his termination, receive his current salary and medical and dental benefits for 14 weeks and a termination bonus of $6,250. As of August 1, 2000, the executive officers of PADS held options to acquire an aggregate of 25,000 shares of PADS common stock, of which options to acquire 18,750 shares are subject to vesting. These options will be converted in the merger into options to acquire approximately 50,888 shares of Innoveda common stock. In addition, as of August 1, 2000, the executive officers held 2,500 restricted shares of PADS common stock. These shares will be converted in the merger into approximately 4,750 shares of Innoveda common stock. 35 The merger agreement provides that for a period of three years after the effective time of the merger, Innoveda will cause the surviving corporation to honor its obligations to indemnify each present and former director and officer of PADS against any costs or expenses pertaining to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the effective time of the merger. TREATMENT OF PADS COMMON STOCK AND PADS PREFERRED STOCK In the merger, Innoveda will issue 6,473,136 shares of its common stock and expects to pay approximately $1.7 million to the PADS stockholders. The number of shares of Innoveda common stock and the cash consideration which the PADS stockholders will receive in exchange for their shares of PADS common stock or PADS preferred stock will be determined at the effective time of the merger based on the number of shares and options of PADS capital stock then outstanding. Based upon the outstanding PADS capital stock as of August 1, 2000, it is expected that each share of PADS common stock or PADS preferred stock will be exchanged for approximately 1.9 shares of Innoveda common stock and $.51 in cash. In addition, each outstanding option to purchase shares of PADS common stock will be converted into an option to purchase 2.0355 shares of Innoveda common stock, with the option exercise price to be adjusted accordingly. ACCOUNTING TREATMENT OF THE MERGER The merger will be accounted for by Innoveda using the purchase method of accounting for a business combination. Under this method of accounting, the assets and liabilities of PADS, including intangible assets, will be recorded at their fair market value and included in the financial statements of Innoveda. The results of operations and cash flows of PADS will be included in Innoveda's financial statements prospectively as of the consummation of the merger. MATERIAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS In the opinion of Hale and Dorr LLP, counsel to Innoveda, described below are certain material United States federal income tax considerations generally applicable to United States holders of PADS capital stock who, pursuant to the merger, exchange their PADS capital stock for Innoveda common stock and cash. The opinion of Hale and Dorr LLP described in the preceding sentence is included in exhibit 8.1 to the registration statement of which this consent solicitation statement/prospectus forms a part. The discussion below is, and the opinion of Hale and Dorr LLP will be, based upon current provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, currently applicable U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, and judicial and administrative decisions and rulings. The opinion of Hale and Dorr LLP will be based on the facts, representations and assumptions set forth or referred to in such opinions, including representations contained in certificates executed by officers of Innoveda and PADS. The opinion is not binding on the Internal Revenue Service or the courts, and there can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service or the courts will not take a contrary view. No ruling from the Internal Revenue Service has been or will be sought. Future legislative, judicial or administrative changes or interpretations could alter or modify the statements and conclusions set forth herein, and any such changes or interpretations could be retroactive and could affect the tax consequences of the merger to the stockholders of Innoveda and PADS. This discussion and the opinion of Hale and Dorr LLP do not purport to deal with all aspects of federal income taxation that may affect particular stockholders in light of their individual circumstances, and are not intended for stockholders subject to special treatment under federal income tax law. Stockholders subject to special treatment include insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, financial institutions, broker-dealers, foreign persons, stockholders who hold their stock as part of a hedge, appreciated financial position, straddle or conversion transaction, stockholders who 36 are subject to the alternative minimum tax, stockholders who do not hold their stock as capital assets and stockholders who have acquired their stock upon the exercise of employee options or otherwise as compensation. This discussion and such opinions also do not consider the tax consequences to holders of options or warrants to acquire PADS capital stock. In addition, this discussion and such opinions do not consider the effect of any applicable state, local or foreign tax laws. Each holder of PADS capital stock is urged to consult its own tax advisor as to the particular tax consequences to it of the transaction described herein, including the applicability and effect of any state, local or foreign tax laws, and of changes in applicable tax laws. The merger will constitute a "reorganization" within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, subject to the limitations and qualifications referred to herein, the following tax consequences will result: - No gain or loss will be recognized by Innoveda, PADS or the wholly owned subsidiary of Innoveda solely as a result of the merger. - A PADS stockholder will recognize gain, but not loss, to the extent of the lesser of (a) the excess of the sum of the cash and the fair market value, as of the effective time of the merger, of the Innoveda common stock received, over the PADS stockholder's adjusted basis in the PADS capital stock surrendered in exchange therefor, and (b) the amount of cash received by the PADS stockholder. - Solely for purposes of determining the character of the gain, if any, recognized by a PADS stockholder in the merger, cash received by a PADS stockholder in exchange for PADS capital stock will be treated as if Innoveda issued Innoveda common stock in the merger with a value equal to such cash and then redeemed such shares, subject to the provisions of Section 302 of the Internal Revenue Code. If the deemed redemption of shares has the effect of a distribution of a dividend (applying Section 302 and the constructive ownership rules of Section 318(a) of the Internal Revenue Code), then the gain shall be taxable as ordinary income to the extent of the PADS stockholder's ratable share of undistributed accumulated earnings and profits of PADS. If the deemed redemption does not have the effect of the distribution of a dividend (applying Sections 302 and 318(a) of the Internal Revenue Code), but rather is a redemption treated as an exchange, then such gain shall be taxable as capital gain. - Capital gain will be long-term capital gain (or loss) if such shares of Innoveda common stock are treated, based on the rules set forth below, as having been held for more than one year at the effective time of the merger. - The aggregate tax basis of the Innoveda common stock actually received by PADS stockholders in the merger will be equal to the aggregate tax basis of the PADS capital stock surrendered in the exchange reduced by the amount of the cash consideration received in the exchange and increased by the amount treated as a dividend and the amount of gain recognized by the PADS stockholder. - The holding period of the Innoveda common stock received by each PADS stockholder in the merger will include the holding period for the PADS capital stock surrendered in exchange, provided that the PADS capital stock surrendered is held as a capital asset at the effective time of the merger. A successful Internal Revenue Service challenge to the "reorganization" status of the merger would result in a PADS stockholder recognizing gain or loss with respect to each share of PADS capital stock surrendered in the merger equal to the difference between the PADS stockholder's basis in such share and the fair market value, as of the effective time of the merger, of the Innoveda common stock and the cash consideration received in exchange therefor. In such event, a PADS stockholder's 37 aggregate tax basis in the Innoveda common stock received would equal its fair market value, and the PADS stockholder's holding period for such stock would begin the day after the merger. PADS STOCKHOLDERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE MERGER, INCLUDING THE APPLICATION OF U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND FOREIGN TAX LAWS, AND POSSIBLE FUTURE CHANGES IN SUCH LAWS AND THE INTERPRETATION THEREOF, WHICH MAY HAVE RETROACTIVE EFFECT. NASDAQ NATIONAL MARKET QUOTATION Innoveda filed a notification form for listing of additional shares with the Nasdaq National Market on July 12, 2000 with respect to the shares of Innoveda common stock to be issued in the merger. RESALES OF INNOVEDA COMMON STOCK ISSUED IN CONNECTION WITH THE MERGER; VOTING AND TRANSFER RESTRICTION AGREEMENT Innoveda common stock issued in connection with the merger will be freely transferable, except that shares of Innoveda common stock received by persons who are deemed to be "affiliates," as such term is defined by Rule 144 under the Securities Act, of PADS at the effective time of the merger may be resold by them only in transactions permitted by the resale provisions of Rule 145 under the Securities Act or as otherwise permitted under the Securities Act. Certain executive officers and directors of PADS have executed a voting and transfer restriction agreement providing, among other things, that such person will not offer, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the shares of Innoveda common stock obtained as a result of the merger except in compliance with the Securities Act and the related rules and regulations. Under the terms of these agreements, their shares of Innoveda common stock issued pursuant to the merger are subject to a "lock-up," wherein a percentage of each person's shares will become eligible for sale at intervals throughout the one year period following the effective date of the closing of the merger. More specifically, and subject to compliance with Securities Act and the related rules and regulations: - 20% of the shares of Innoveda common stock issued to them under the terms of the merger will be freely tradable immediately as of the effective time of the merger; - an additional 40% will become freely tradable after six months has elapsed from the effective time of the merger; and - the remaining 40% will become freely tradable after twelve months has elapsed from the effective date of the merger. CONSENT IN LIEU OF MEETING; WAIVER OF APPRAISAL RIGHTS The adoption of the merger agreement must be approved by holders of at least two-thirds in interest of the outstanding shares of PADS series A preferred stock and PADS series B preferred stock, voting together as a single class. Because these classes of stock are held by a limited number of holders, PADS is requesting that these holders of voting stock vote to adopt the merger agreement by executing a written consent in lieu of holding a special meeting of stockholders. Prior to the mailing of this consent solicitation statement/prospectus, a holder of PADS series A preferred stock who owns approximately 90% of the outstanding shares of PADS preferred stock agreed to consent to the adoption of the merger agreement. Therefore, adoption of the merger agreement is assured. PADS expects to pay approximately $500 for the solicitation of the written consents. 38 PADS stockholders are entitled, under Delaware law, to require an appraisal of their shares and to demand the payment of fair value for their shares. These rights, generally known as "appraisal rights," are described in detail in the section entitled "Appraisal Rights" and a copy of Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which governs appraisal rights, is attached as Annex C to this consent solicitation statement/prospectus. You should read both the summary and the statutory provision carefully when making your decision because the statutory requirements are complex. Under the merger agreement, Innoveda is not obligated to proceed with the merger if stockholders holding more than three percent of the outstanding shares of PADS capital stock have demanded an appraisal with respect to their shares. Under Delaware law, stockholders have the right to demand an appraisal of their shares within 20 days after notice of the merger has been mailed to them. PADS is requesting that all stockholders, including holders of PADS nonvoting common stock, sign and return a waiver of appraisal rights by August 31, 2000 so that the stockholders may clearly inform PADS that they do not plan to demand appraisal with respect to their shares. The failure of a stockholder to return a waiver of appraisal rights will not, in itself, constitute a demand for appraisal of his, her or its shares. Stockholders must strictly comply with the statutory requirements to exercise their right to demand appraisal of their shares. APPRAISAL RIGHTS Delaware law does not grant appraisal rights to Innoveda stockholders. Delaware law grants appraisal rights in the merger to the holders of PADS capital stock. Under Delaware law, a PADS stockholder may perfect his, her or its appraisal rights by delivering to PADS a demand in writing for the appraisal of its shares and not voting for or consenting in writing to the merger agreement or the merger. PADS stockholders considering seeking appraisal should recognize that the fair value of shares could be determined to be more than, the same as, or less than the value of the Innoveda shares to which stockholders are entitled if they do not exercise their appraisal rights. Stockholders who elect to exercise appraisal rights must comply strictly with all of the procedures set forth in Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law to preserve those rights. We have attached a copy of Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which sets forth these appraisal rights, as Annex C to this consent solicitation statement/prospectus. Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law sets forth the required procedure a stockholder seeking appraisal must follow. Perfecting your appraisal rights can be complicated. The procedural rules are specific and must be followed completely. Failure to comply with the procedure may cause you to lose your appraisal rights. The following is only a summary of your rights and the procedure relating to appraisal rights and is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Please review Section 262 for the complete procedure. PADS will not give you any notice other than as described in this consent solicitation statement/prospectus and as required by Delaware law. APPRAISAL RIGHTS PROCEDURES If you are a PADS stockholder and you wish to exercise your appraisal rights, you must satisfy the following provisions of Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. - YOU MUST MAKE A WRITTEN DEMAND FOR APPRAISAL. You must deliver a written demand for appraisal to PADS within 20 days of the mailing date of this consent solicitation statement/prospectus. Failing to sign the waiver alone will not constitute a demand for appraisal. - YOU MUST NOT VOTE FOR OR CONSENT IN WRITING TO THE MERGER. You must not consent to or vote for the adoption of the merger agreement. If you vote for or consent by written consent to the adoption of the merger agreement, you will not be entitled to any right to seek appraisal. 39 - YOU MUST CONTINUOUSLY HOLD YOUR PADS SHARES.You must continuously hold your shares of PADS capital stock from the date you make the demand for appraisal through the completion of the merger. If you are the record holder of PADS capital stock on the date you make a written demand for appraisal but then transfer your shares before the merger, you will lose any right to appraisal in respect of those shares. YOU SHOULD READ THE PARAGRAPHS BELOW FOR MORE DETAILS ON MAKING A DEMAND FOR APPRAISAL. A written demand for appraisal of PADS capital stock must be executed by or on behalf of a stockholder of record and must reasonably identify the stockholder and that he, she or it intends to demand appraisal of his, her or its shares. If you own PADS capital stock in a fiduciary capacity, such as a trustee, guardian or custodian, the demand for appraisal must be executed by or for the record owner. If you own PADS capital stock with one or more persons, such as in a joint tenancy or tenancy in common, the demand for appraisal must be executed by or for all joint owners. An authorized agent, which could include one or more of the joint owners, may sign the demand for appraisal for a stockholder of record; however, the agent must expressly disclose who the stockholder of record is and that the agent is signing the demand as that stockholder's agent. If you are a record owner, such as a broker, who holds PADS capital stock as a nominee for others, you may exercise a right of appraisal with respect to the shares held for one or more beneficial owners, while not exercising such right for other beneficial owners. In such a case, you should specify in the written demand the number of shares as to which you wish to demand appraisal. If you do not expressly specify the number of shares, we will assume that your written demand covers all the shares of PADS capital stock that are in your name. If you are an PADS stockholder who elects to exercise appraisal rights, you should mail or deliver by hand a written demand to: PADS SOFTWARE, INC. 165 FOREST STREET MARLBORO, MASSACHUSETTS 01752 ATTN: PRESIDENT It is important that PADS receive all written demands before August 31, 2000. As explained above, this written demand should be signed by, or on behalf of, the stockholder of record. The written demand for appraisal should specify the stockholder's name and mailing address, the number of shares of capital stock owned, and that the stockholder is thereby demanding appraisal of his, her or its shares. The failure to waive your appraisal rights by not signing the waiver will not constitute a written demand for appraisal rights. If you fail to comply with any of these conditions and the merger becomes effective, you will only be entitled to receive the merger consideration provided in the merger agreement. WRITTEN NOTICE. Within 10 days after the completion of the merger, PADS must give written notice setting forth the date the merger has become effective to each stockholder who has fully exercised his, her or its appraisal rights in full compliance with the conditions of Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. PETITION WITH THE CHANCERY COURT. Within 120 days after the completion of the merger, either PADS or any stockholder who has complied with the conditions of Section 262 may file a petition in the Delaware Court of Chancery. Any stockholder who files such a petition must provide PADS a copy of the petition demanding that the Chancery Court determine the value of the shares of PADS stock held by all of the stockholders who are entitled to appraisal rights. PADS has no present intention of filing an appraisal petition. Accordingly, if you intend to exercise your rights of appraisal, you should 40 file a petition in the Chancery Court. Because PADS has no obligation to file a petition, if you do not file a petition within 120 days after the completion of the merger, you will lose your rights of appraisal. WITHDRAWAL OF DEMAND. If you change your mind and decide you no longer want to assert appraisal rights, you may withdraw your demand for appraisal rights at any time within 60 days after the closing of the merger. You may also withdraw your demand for appraisal rights after 60 days after the closing of the merger, but only with the written consent of PADS. If you effectively withdraw your demand for appraisal rights, you will receive the merger consideration provided in the merger agreement. REQUEST FOR APPRAISAL RIGHTS STATEMENT. If you have complied with the conditions of Section 262, you are entitled to receive a statement from PADS which sets forth the number of shares held by stockholders who have demanded appraisal rights, and the number of stockholders who own those shares. To receive this statement, you must send a written request to PADS within 120 days after the completion of the merger. PADS has 10 days after receiving a request to mail you the statement. CHANCERY COURT PROCEDURES. If you properly file a petition for appraisal in the Chancery Court and deliver a copy to PADS, PADS will then have 20 days to provide the Chancery Court with a list of the names and addresses of all stockholders who have demanded appraisal rights and have not reached an agreement with PADS as to the value of their shares. At a hearing on the petition, the Chancery Court will determine which stockholders, if any, have fully complied with Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law and whether they are entitled to appraisal rights under Section 262. The Chancery Court may also require you to submit your stock certificates to the Registry in Chancery so that it can note on the certificates that an appraisal proceeding is pending. If you do not follow the Chancery Court's directions, you may be dismissed from the proceeding. APPRAISAL OF SHARES. After the Chancery Court determines which stockholders are entitled to appraisal rights, it will consider factors relevant to a determination of the fair value of your shares except for any appreciation or depreciation due to any expectation or accomplishment of the merger. After the Chancery Court determines the fair value of their shares, it will direct PADS to pay that value to the stockholders who sought to have their shares appraised. The Chancery Court can also direct PADS to pay interest, simple or compound, on that value if the Chancery Court determines that interest is appropriate. In order to receive your payment for your shares, you must then surrender your stock certificates to PADS. The Chancery Court could determine that the fair value of shares of stock is more than, the same as or less than the merger consideration. In other words, if you demand appraisal rights, you could receive less consideration than you would under the merger agreement. COSTS AND EXPENSES OF APPRAISAL PROCEEDING. The costs and expenses of the appraisal proceeding may be assessed against PADS and/or the stockholders participating in the appraisal proceeding, as the Chancery Court deems equitable under the circumstances. You may also request that the Chancery Court allocate the expenses of the appraisal action incurred by any stockholder pro rata against the value of all of the shares entitled to appraisal. LOSS OF STOCKHOLDER'S RIGHTS. If you demand appraisal rights, after the completion of the merger you will not be entitled to: - vote shares of stock, for any purpose, for which you have demanded appraisal rights; - receive payment of dividends or any other distribution with respect to such shares, except for dividends or distributions, if any, that are payable to holders of record as of a record date prior to the effective time of the merger; or 41 - receive the payment of the consideration provided for in the merger agreement, unless you properly withdraw your demand for appraisal. If no petition for an appraisal is filed within 120 days after the completion of the merger, your right to seek an appraisal will cease, and you will be entitled to receive the consideration that all other holders of PADS capital stock received in the merger. You may withdraw your demand for appraisal and accept the merger consideration by delivering to PADS a written withdrawal of your demand, except that: - any attempt to withdraw made more than 60 days after the completion of the merger will require the written approval of PADS; and - an appraisal proceeding in the Chancery Court cannot be dismissed unless the Chancery Court approves. If you fail to comply strictly with the procedures described above you will lose your appraisal rights. Consequently, if you wish to exercise your appraisal rights, we strongly urge you to consult a legal advisor. 42 THE MERGER AGREEMENT THE FOLLOWING IS A BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE MATERIAL PROVISIONS OF THE MERGER AGREEMENT, A COPY OF WHICH IS ATTACHED AS ANNEX A TO THIS CONSENT SOLICITATION STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS, WHICH IS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE INTO THIS SUMMARY. THE SUMMARY DESCRIPTION IS NOT COMPLETE AND IS QUALIFIED IN ITS ENTIRETY BY REFERENCE TO THE AGREEMENT. WE URGE ALL PADS STOCKHOLDERS TO READ THE MERGER AGREEMENT IN ITS ENTIRETY FOR A MORE COMPLETE DESCRIPTION OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE MERGER AND RELATED MATTERS. GENERAL Following the adoption of the merger agreement and approval of the merger by the PADS stockholders and the satisfaction or waiver of the other conditions to the merger, a wholly owned subsidiary of Innoveda will merge with and into PADS. PADS will survive the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Innoveda. If all conditions to the merger are satisfied or waived, the merger will become effective at the time of the filing by the surviving corporation of a duly executed certificate of merger with the Secretary of State of Delaware. THE EXCHANGE RATIO AND TREATMENT OF PADS CAPITAL STOCK At the effective time of the merger, each issued and outstanding share of PADS capital stock will be converted into the right to receive shares of Innoveda common stock and cash consideration. However, shares held in the treasury of PADS and shares held by Innoveda, or any wholly owned subsidiary of either Innoveda or PADS, will be cancelled without conversion. Innoveda will adjust the exchange ratio for any stock split, stock dividend, reorganization or other similar change with respect to Innoveda common stock occurring before the effective time. Innoveda will issue 6,473,136 shares of its common stock and expects to pay approximately $1.7 million to the PADS stockholders. The number of shares of Innoveda common stock and the cash consideration which the PADS stockholders will receive in exchange for their shares of PADS capital stock will be determined at the effective time of the merger based on the number of shares and options of PADS capital stock then outstanding. Based upon the outstanding PADS capital stock as of August 1, 2000, it is expected that each share of PADS capital stock will be exchanged for approximately 1.9 shares of Innoveda common stock and $.51 in cash. TREATMENT OF UNVESTED AND RESTRICTED STOCK OF PADS At the effective time of the merger, each unvested share of PADS common stock granted by PADS under any of its stock plans or similar arrangements will be converted into unvested shares of Innoveda common stock based on the exchange ratio and will remain subject to the same terms, restrictions and vesting schedules as were applicable prior to the effective time of the merger. Innoveda will assume any rights PADS held prior to the effective time of the merger to repurchase these unvested shares. TREATMENT OF PADS STOCK OPTIONS At the effective time of the merger, Innoveda will assume each outstanding option to purchase shares of PADS common stock, whether vested or unvested, previously granted by PADS under its stock option plans and convert them into options to purchase shares of Innoveda common stock on the same terms and conditions. The number of shares of Innoveda common stock issuable upon the exercise of PADS stock options assumed by Innoveda in the merger will be adjusted based on the option exchange ratio of 2.0355. Any fractional shares of Innoveda common stock resulting from such adjustment will be rounded down to the nearest whole number. The exercise price per share of Innoveda common stock issuable under each PADS stock option will also be adjusted based on the option exchange ratio. The exercise price will be rounded up to the nearest whole cent. 43 Innoveda will reserve for issuance a sufficient number of shares of its common stock for delivery if a PADS optionholder exercises its options as described above. After the effective time of the merger, Innoveda will file a registration statement on Form S-8 with respect to the assumed PADS stock options. During the period that any options remain outstanding, Innoveda will use its best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of any registration statement on Form S-8. EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES DELIVERY OF CERTIFICATES AT CLOSING; NO FURTHER OWNERSHIP RIGHTS. At the closing of the merger, each PADS stockholder will deliver and surrender to Innoveda the certificate(s) representing its shares of PADS capital stock. The surrendered certificates representing shares of PADS capital stock will be cancelled. After the effective time of the merger, under the merger agreement, each certificate representing shares of PADS capital stock that has not been surrendered will only represent the right to receive: - shares of Innoveda common stock, with a fractional interest rounded to the nearest whole number, provided that any fractional interest equal to .5 shall be rounded to the nearest odd number; - cash consideration per share of PADS capital stock; and - any dividends or distributions. Following the effective time of the merger, PADS will not register any transfers of its capital stock on its stock transfer books. NO FRACTIONAL SHARES. Innoveda will not issue any fractional shares of Innoveda common stock in the merger. Instead, Innoveda will round to the nearest whole share, with a fractional interest equal to .5 rounded to the nearest odd number, any fractional shares of Innoveda stock to which each holder of shares of PADS capital stock would otherwise be entitled. No cash will be paid in lieu of fractional shares. DISTRIBUTIONS WITH RESPECT TO UNEXCHANGED SHARES. No dividends or other distributions declared or made on or after the effective date of the merger with respect to shares of Innoveda common stock will be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered PADS certificate with respect to the shares of Innoveda common stock that the holder is entitled to receive, and no cash payment per share owned of PADS capital stock will be paid to any such holder until the holder surrenders its PADS certificate as provided above and provides customary representations and certifications as are requested. Upon surrender, Innoveda will pay to the person, in whose name the PADS certificate representing such shares of Innoveda common stock will be issued, without interest, any dividends or distributions with respect to the shares of Innoveda common stock which have a record date on or after the closing date of the merger and have become payable between the effective time of the merger and the time of surrender. LOST CERTIFICATES. If any certificate representing shares of PADS capital stock are lost, stolen or destroyed, a PADS stockholder must provide an appropriate affidavit of that fact. Innoveda may require the PADS stockholder to deliver a bond as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Innoveda with respect to such certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed. 44 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES The merger agreement contains representations and warranties of Innoveda, PADS and the wholly owned subsidiary of Innoveda which will merge into PADS.

VOTING AND TRANSFER RESTRICTION AGREEMENT THE FOLLOWING IS A BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE MATERIAL PROVISIONS OF THE VOTING AND TRANSFER RESTRICTION AGREEMENT, A COPY OF WHICH IS ATTACHED AS ANNEX B TO THIS CONSENT SOLICITATION STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS WHICH IS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE INTO THIS SUMMARY. THE SUMMARY DESCRIPTION IS NOT COMPLETE AND IS QUALIFIED IN ITS ENTIRETY BY REFERENCE TO THE VOTING AND TRANSFER RESTRICTION AGREEMENT. GENERAL In connection with the merger agreement, Innoveda and PADS' stockholders, individually, who beneficially own an aggregate of 225,000 shares of PADS nonvoting common stock and 2,500,000 shares of PADS series A preferred stock, entered into a voting and transfer restriction agreement. Under the terms of that agreement, the stockholders agreed to vote to approve the merger and to adopt the merger agreement. In addition, the same PADS stockholders agreed to irrevocably appoint Innoveda as the stockholders' lawful attorney and proxy to vote on all matters relating to the merger agreement. The proxy gives Innoveda, or any nominee of Innoveda, the limited right to vote such stockholders' shares of PADS capital stock to the extent such shares may be voted, as lawful attorney and proxy at every PADS stockholders meeting and every written consent in lieu of such meeting, in favor of adoption of the merger agreement and approval of the merger, against any matter inconsistent with the merger 49 transaction and against any other acquisition (whether by way of merger, consolidation, share exchange, stock purchase, asset purchase or otherwise) of all or a majority of the outstanding capital stock or assets of PADS. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OF INNOVEDA COMMON STOCK Those PADS stockholders further agreed to "lock up" their shares, precluding them from selling their shares of Innoveda common stock received in the merger for as much as one year after the effective time of the merger. More specifically: - during the first six months after the effective time of the merger, the stockholders are permitted to sell a maximum of 20% of the shares of Innoveda common stock received in the merger; - six months after the effective time of the merger, the stockholders are permitted to sell an additional 40% of the shares of Innoveda common stock received in the merger; - and one year after the effective time of the merger, the stockholders may sell the remainder of their shares of Innoveda common stock received in the merger. Even where those PADS stockholders' shares of Innoveda common stock are not subject to the lockup, however, those PADS stockholders further agreed under the terms of this agreement not to offer, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the shares of Innoveda common stock obtained as a result of the merger, except in compliance with the Securities Act and the related rules and regulations. In particular, those PADS stockholders agreed that, to the extent they qualify as "affiliates" of PADS at the effective time of the merger, as such term is defined by Rule 144 under the Securities Act, their Innoveda shares obtained through the merger may be resold only in transactions permitted by the resale provisions of Rule 145 under the Securities Act or as otherwise permitted under the Securities Act. TERMINATION The voting and transfer restriction agreement terminates at the time the merger agreement terminates under its terms. 50 INNOVEDA'S BUSINESS Innoveda offers productivity enhancing software and services for the electronic design automation market. Innoveda's products automate the design entry, analysis and testing of any electronic products (including their components and systems). An electronic product is a product that is differentiated from competitive products through its electronic content, including: - entire electronic systems or products; - electrical devices, known as printed circuit boards, that contain multiple chips and other components to create larger electrical functions; - high-speed components; - cabling and interconnects; - field programmable gate arrays; - application-specific standard parts; and - less complicated field programmable gate arrays known as programmable logic devices. Innoveda's service offerings help large organizations developing electronic products become more productive, adopt new methods for designing their products and accelerate their adoption of new software tools. Innoveda markets and supports its software and services worldwide through direct and indirect distribution channels to the communications, networking, consumer electronics, computer, medical, industrial and automotive industries. The electronic products developed by companies in these industries include everything from cellular telephones and personal organizers to network equipment, personal computers and laptop computers, modems, automated teller machines, televisions, video cassette recorders and even automobiles and airplanes. INDUSTRY BACKGROUND Electronic design automation software is software that automates the tasks and process of designing electronic products and their related components and systems. This software has played a critical role in accelerating the dramatic advances in the electronics industry over the past two decades. For most of this period, the need for more advanced electronic design automation tools has been driven by the rapid increase in complexity of integrated circuits or chips, which are found in virtually all electronic products. An integrated circuit, or chip, is an electrical device consisting of various components, connections and switches that can be designed to perform a specific function. The increase in complexity of integrated circuits has been compounded by the scarcity of engineers skilled in the design and testing of chips. Moreover, the increase in the complexity of chips lengthens their development cycle. As a result, a greater number of engineering hours are required to design many of today's more complex chips, leading to either longer development schedules or the need for larger design teams. At the same time, competitive pressures shorten the life cycles of the electronic products that incorporate chips. Innoveda believes that time to market pressures and the complexity of designing chips will cause manufacturers of electronic products to move towards differentiating their products at the system level--a design abstraction that involves the design of the entire electronic system or subsystem--rather than at the chip level and plans to focus on providing tools for that purpose. Electronic design automation has come to mean hardware design automation, and Innoveda believes that term alone is no longer appropriate to describe the breadth of the market for software 51 tools used to automate the design of electronic products. The scope of this expanded market can be defined by the stages of the electronic design process that it includes, as shown in Figure 1. FIGURE 1. ELECTRONIC PRODUCT DESIGN AUTOMATION MARKET [Graphic Depiction of Electronic Product Design Automation Market] The system-level design automation phase of development is comprised of the software and services that serve the needs of designers designing electronic products that are composed of hardware, software and the interconnection between hardware components. This system-level design is based on the cooperative design of both hardware and software for the completed electronic product. An increasing number of electronic products now include software as a major component of the product. Therefore, system-level design involves managing tradeoffs among the following factors: - system performance and features; - system memory requirements; - processor selection; - chip area and cost; - product cost; - system power and battery life; - effects of cables and connectors; - system programmability; and - project schedule. It is also the stage of a project where decisions are usually made about adopting new design partners, methodologies, policies and automation tools. These decisions include choices regarding software development tools, strategies needed for the design and test of hardware and software components together, chip vendors and electronic design automation tools and processes. In addition, refinements to the processes and tools that are created to help large design teams work together efficiently also emerge at this phase of development. In addition to the move towards differentiating products at the system level rather than at the chip level, in recent years the lengthening design cycles for chips and significant time-to-market pressures for electronic products have influenced a shift in the choice of chip technologies away from fully customized integrated circuits and partially pre-designed integrated circuits, also known as application-specific integrated circuits, to more flexible technologies that shorten the design cycle. These more flexible technologies include: - chips whose function can be changed with software-like programming, known as field programmable gate arrays; - chips created to provide a fixed function for a specific application, known as application-specific standard parts; and 52 - multi-purpose processing chips that actually run software programs, known as embedded processors. These integrated circuit choices help to provide greater flexibility and faster time to market for companies that design electronic products. They also present new design automation challenges, including designing and testing systems that contain significant embedded software programs. Further complicating the design task is the effect that faster chips have on overall system design. Fast-switching signals (when an electrical signal changes voltage beyond a predetermined amount) are required to achieve the very fast processor speeds we now take for granted. These fast signals can cause electrical signals to radiate from the chip or printed circuit board on which the chips are placed and cause unintentional negative effects on other signals on the chip or printed circuit board, potentially causing the system to fail. If the necessary analysis and testing is not performed before the system is manufactured, these problems can affect the quality of the final system in which the chips are embedded. This situation has created the need for sophisticated tools to design and test the wires on the chip and those that connect the chips and other components within electronic products. These emerging design challenges, driven by faster, more complex chips, create many new problems for the manufacturers of electronic products and opportunities for companies that provide tools for the design of electronic products. The objectives of electronic design automation are to reduce time to market and the costs associated with product design, analysis, testing and optimization, while permitting the development of a greater number of product designs of higher speed and greater complexity that can be manufactured reliably. INNOVEDA STRATEGY Innoveda's strategic objective is to become the leading provider of software and services that help automate the design of electronic products by focusing on those products and services that are targeted at system-level product design, the design of printed circuit boards and certain components thereof, and the design and analysis of certain electro-mechanical components and systems. Innoveda plans to sell its products and services to electronic product design companies worldwide, primarily in the following industry segments: - communications and networking; - consumer electronics; - computers and related devices; - automotive; and - industrial and medical. Innoveda intends to compete in these segments by developing differentiated products and services that address the special requirements for the design of electronic products by companies in these industries. Two key issues dominate the design of electronic products today. First, unprecedented design complexity has exceeded man's ability to efficiently address design issues unaided, requiring increased automation of the process for the design of electronic products. Second, design problems are occurring in the gaps between design stages as indicated in Figure 1 on page 52. Innoveda intends to become the leading provider of design automation software and services for electronic products by virtue of its product and market strengths and its focus on addressing key electronic product design challenges. Innoveda believes that the greatest advances in producing a competitive electronic product will not come solely through incremental improvements in the chip design process, but rather by creating an electronic product design environment that enables design and testing at a more conceptual level and across design stages and engineering disciplines. To achieve this electronic product design automation environment takes a special focus. 53 Innoveda has chosen to focus on the system-level design, printed circuit board design and electromechanical design markets. Most major competitors have focused their resources on solving the challenges of application-specific integrated circuit design automation. Innoveda's market strategy is to focus on the following application segments: - SYSTEM-LEVEL DESIGN AUTOMATION: the determination of whether functions should be performed by hardware (and the type of hardware) or software; - PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD DESIGN: the design of printed circuit boards and programmable components used with printed circuit boards; - INTERCONNECT DESIGN: the design of cables and the connections of various devices within an electronic product; and - COLLABORATIVE DESIGN: Internet-enabled design data management, component information management, component library development and maintenance, the re-use of designs and integration with other systems within the design environment. INNOVEDA PRODUCTS Innoveda's software products enable electrical engineers to design state-of-the-art electronic products, and their components and systems, more efficiently, while reducing development costs and reducing the time to get products to market. These software products help designers to translate their ideas into designs and verify the accuracy and manufacturability of those designs. EPRODUCT DESIGNER eProduct Designer, Innoveda's umbrella design environment, offers engineers a user interface running on the Windows environment and under UNIX on workstations. eProduct Designer also has been created as an "Internet-aware" suite of tools. This enables the product design and related data to be located anywhere on the Internet. The related data can consist of many disparate data sources such as engineering, purchasing and manufacturing that are merged and presented in an accessible format through eProduct Designer. Data management tools enable versions of designs to be created and enable teams of engineers to work simultaneously on the same design data from any site in the world. Through Innoveda's eProduct Designer design capture environment, engineers can enter and maintain their design throughout the entire design process. Innoveda's tool suites are organized around the specific challenges systems designers face, including printed circuit board design, field programmable gate array design, high-speed design, design verification and enterprise integration. The printed circuit board design portion of Innoveda's eProduct Designer environment is based on ViewDraw, used for graphical capture and manipulation of the design, itself. With ViewDraw, ViewSim (one of Innoveda's simulation tools) and the company's printed circuit board Netlisters (the software tools that convert the graphical design into a format readable by other design tools) form the backbone of Innoveda's design methodology. Additionally, Innoveda offers the Fusion co-simulation products, SpeedWave and ViewAnalog. Innoveda also sells and supports other simulation products such as VCSi and VCS Express under a license agreement with Synopsys. New product offerings in eProduct Designer include: - EPLANNER. A new product that simulates electrical characteristics before producing the printed circuit board. ePlanner allows the user to enter overall product design constraints into the software tool and to specify many physical design aspects of a printed circuit board long before committing the design to manufacturing. 54 - EARCHITECT. A product for design specification and determining whether functions should be performed by hardware or software and making other critical system-level tradeoffs during the early stages of the electronic product design process. - DX VARIANT MANAGER. A product that provides web-based capabilities that enable designs to be reused and customized. In August 1999, Innoveda acquired Transcendent Design Technology. Innoveda plans to merge Transcendent's products into Innoveda's eProduct Designer tools to provide solutions from concept through the manufacturing of complex systems. The Transcendent product family includes: - TRANSCABLE, a design environment for the design of cables and connectors; - TRANSDATABOOK, a parts library (containing previously designed cables and connectors) browser system; - TRANSLAYOUT, for synthesizing cable connectors; - interfaces to mechanical computer aided design systems; and - TRANSANALYSIS, for simulating the electronic effects of wire harness and cable systems within electronic products. VISUAL HDL Visual HDL is a graphical design entry tool that allows engineers to conceptualize and capture a design. It provides system design management, graphical design creation, graphical level simulation, automatic code generation and high speed compiled code simulation of the design. It assists design engineers in meeting the market demands for rapid time to market, increased product functionality and lower product cost while providing the companies that employ these engineers an efficient way to document, revise and distribute the highly valuable intellectual property they create. Visual HDL automates manual design entry and verification by enabling design engineers to create and verify designs using familiar graphical paradigms rather than less intuitive textual code. Visual HDL allows engineers to quickly determine the cause of a bug by highlighting the specific line of text and the related graphical representation where the error exists, thereby significantly shortening the time to debug a program. Visual HDL has become an industry leader for graphical design creation, analysis and intellectual property management and is available for use on both UNIX workstations and personal computers. Visual HDL is designed to provide the following key benefits: - increased design productivity; - highly interactive cause and effect feedback for design debugging; - enhanced documentation of designs algorithms; - graphical presentation to allow new developers to better understand a design; and - complete and understandable design archives for future design revisions. TEXT TO GRAPHICS Text To Graphics converts a design model initially created in an all-text style to the graphical representation of Visual HDL where it can be visualized by those new to the design team and used for making modifications to the model. Text to Graphics provides companies who purchase Visual HDL with an automated methodology to convert their existing designs into the Visual HDL format. Prior to development of this product, Visual HDL was only purchased for doing new designs. Existing 55 text-based designs, which can contain thousands of lines of code, had to be reviewed line by line to understand how a model worked. Text to graphics thus expanded the use of Visual HDL by making it easy to convert text-based code to a graphics-based presentation. Working from a graphics representation is especially useful to international users who may not understand the nuances of the common English programming constructs. Text to Graphics provides the following key benefits: - automatic conversion from a text-based design to a graphical representation of the design which can be used in Visual HDL for design analysis and simulation; and - Re-constructs the design graphically so that new users can easily grasp the designs concepts and algorithms. VISUAL IP Visual IP provides a method of packaging design models, a common form of intellectual property, so they may be re-used in, and thus reducing the design time for, subsequent versions or other designs. Companies spend significant amounts in developing and testing models, and re-use is a key strategy for many companies to leverage their existing technology. Visual IP provides a mechanism for distributing these highly confidential simulation models to other users, either within the organization or externally, while at the same time protecting the intellectual property value through encryption. The protection is not only so they cannot be copied, but so that internal users cannot change the source code which represents the design, thus eliminating the value of all the prior testing that has been done on the model. Visual IP is designed to provide the following benefits: - encryption of intellectual property for design reuse; - generation of models which can be used with any simulator; - generation of models which can be executed stand-alone allowing the user to apply his own criteria to a model before selecting it for reuse; and - providing a safe mechanism for companies to provide soft versions of their design while maintaining the proprietary nature of their intellectual property. HIGH-SPEED SYSTEM DESIGN PRODUCTS As the speed at which electronic products run continually increases and the speed at which the signals in the product continually drop, traditional system design methods are no longer adequate. Innoveda's High-Speed System Design products allow designers to consider high-speed effects early and throughout the design process so that they can eliminate this type of design error before being prototyped in manufacturing. Innoveda's High-Speed System Design product line includes: - BLAST: for analyzing the speed of various parts of the design to ensure that the product will function correctly; - XTK: for analyzing the effects that one connection on the printed circuit board may have on another; - QUIET and QUIET EXPERT: for analyzing the potential for electrical radiation from a wire; - AC GRADE: for analyzing the effect of large ground-plane signal changes on the rest of the printed circuit board; and 56 - ISIS PREVIEW: for producing a graphical diagram of how chips are located on the printed circuit board and relocating those chips as needed. FIELD PROGRAMMABLE GATE ARRAY DESIGN PRODUCTS Innoveda's IntelliFlow automated process manager pulls the entire field programmable gate array solution together. With IntelliFlow, users can control their design process from a single, easy-to-use graphical interface. IntelliFlow manages the tools and data throughout the entire field programmable gate array design process, even running the applicable device vendor's place and route tools--those tools used for the final physical design of the chip. Innoveda's Field Programmable Gate Array products include: - HDLPAD: for editing the textual description of the field programmable gate array; - VIEWDRAW: for graphical entry of the design; - STATECAD: for a high-level graphical description of the function of the field programmable gate array; and - FUSION: for simulation of designs to test whether the function of the design matches its expectations. For field programmable gate array synthesis (to translate and optimize the design), Innoveda partners with Synopsys to sell and support FPGA Express. HDL SCORE HDL Score is a verification tool that verifies how well a particular test or tests have exercised a design. It provides a quantitative measure of the quality of simulation tests that have been applied to an entire design model or to selected portions of a design. Simply stated, HDL Score answers the question "have I adequately tested my design with the tests I have developed?" To answer this question, HDL Score provides a percentage measurement of how much of the design has been exercised with the tests. At the end of any simulation, the user can get the "score" (or coverage) he has accomplished. HDL Score works with all popular simulation environments and fits seamlessly into the design verification process. In addition, HDL Score provides a graphic user interface that displays exactly which statements in the model have been executed and, more importantly, which statements have not been executed. HDL Score is designed to provide the following benefits: - determine how much of the design has been tested; - provide graphical display of untested areas of the design; - provide a percentage of the design covered by each test so that tests that are redundant can be eliminated to save simulation time; and - provide test ordering capability so high coverage tests can be simulated first, thus exposing potential errors early in the simulation run. V-CPU V-CPU is a co-verification tool that allows the system designer to execute software code against a simulated model of a chip or system. It is used for hardware/software co-verification to ensure the software design works properly on the proposed hardware before the chip is produced. V-CPU allows embedded-system designers to analyze and validate the interaction between hardware and software early in the development process, while design options are still open. Co-verification of software can 57 begin as soon as there is an executable description of the software and hardware. This early integration allows problems to be detected while they are still easy to fix. With V-CPU, software developers can test software against simulated hardware at high execution rates, and hardware developers can validate the system architecture with stimulus provided by the software. In short, V-CPU allows early simulation of hardware with the actual software before the hardware is built. V-CPU is designed to provide the following benefits: - use of the actual software to test the hardware under design, exposing potential miscommunication between hardware and software groups; - encourage early design communication between hardware and software groups when co-verification displays unexpected results; - minimize the activity in the hardware simulator allowing for faster run times; and - provide a specific interface to the hardware simulator to allow use of standard programming languages to create test suites. DESIGN EXCHANGE To enhance productivity in a geographically diverse company or enterprise, Innoveda has a set of Internet-enabled design data management tools called Design Exchange. These tools include: - DX DATABOOK: for chip search and selection from a local or corporate database; - DX LIBRARY STUDIO: for centralized chip and model (an electrical description of the chip) management; and - DX DATA MANAGER: for team-based, work-in-progress design data management. Design Exchange tools allow disperse teams of designers to work together over the Internet or an Intranet and link to a customer's other systems, so that design teams can work with the approved library of electronic components and with manufacturing groups within their company. INNOVEDA CUSTOMERS Users of Innoveda's products range from small companies to some of the world's largest manufacturing organizations. Industries represented include computers, consumer electronics, semiconductors, telecommunications, military/defense, aerospace, industrial, medical equipment and universities. In 1999, 1998 and 1997, no single customer accounted for more than 10% of total revenue. INNOVEDA BACKLOG Innoveda generally ships its products within 30 days after acceptance of a customer purchase order and execution of a license agreement. Accordingly, Innoveda does not believe that its backlog at any particular point in time is indicative of future sales levels. INNOVEDA SALES Innoveda has developed multiple distribution channels, including a direct sales organization, telesales, independent distributors, value-added resellers, and strategic sales alliances with certain significant semiconductor and printed circuit board layout software vendors. DIRECT SALES ORGANIZATION. Innoveda markets its products in North America, Europe and China primarily through a direct sales organization, which consisted of 119 salespersons and application engineers as of July 1, 2000. Innoveda currently has 30 sales offices located throughout North America, Europe and the Far East. 58 Direct sales teams, generally consisting of one salesperson and one application engineer, focus on large accounts in assigned territories. These sales teams are responsible for all sales activities within their assigned territories and coordinate the activities of distributors and value-added resellers. Application engineers specializing in certain products are assigned to each sales territory and support individual sales teams. Each member of Innoveda's direct sales and support teams is assigned sales quotas and has a significant portion of their compensation based on sales performance. Approximately 50% and 30% of expected compensation for salespersons and application engineers, respectively, are typically based on sales performance. TELESALES. The telesales channel consists of telesales representatives covering assigned geographic territories in North America and Europe. These representatives are an inside counterpart to the field, focusing on upgrading and servicing the installed customer base. They provide sales support for renewal maintenance, software sales and otherwise upgrade existing customers by selling additional seats. Approximately 45% of expected compensation for a telesales representative is based on sales performance. DISTRIBUTORS. Innoveda appoints independent distributors to market its products to customers not served by Innoveda's direct sales organization. Innoveda uses distributors as its principal distribution channel in much of Asia, and currently has distributors covering Japan, Israel, Taiwan, Korea, Australia, Singapore, China and India. Distributors are also appointed in the United States and Europe to supplement Innoveda's direct sales efforts by focusing on customers not served by direct sales teams. VALUE ADDED RESELLER. Innoveda has established a broad-based value added reseller distribution network. This group primarily focuses on selling Innoveda's software tools to the small and medium size accounts in North America. INNOVEDA MARKETING Innoveda's marketing organization performs the product marketing, technical marketing, corporate communications and strategic marketing functions. The group consists of 28 marketing professionals with specialized technical knowledge and experience in the design automation software business. The marketing organization: - develops strategy and identifies target markets; - keeps abreast of customer design methodologies; - identifies customer requirements and new product opportunities; - establishes product vision and direction for both existing products and new products; - provides the sales channel with training, competitive analyses, pricing, packaging, collateral materials, demonstrations and reference accounts; and - provides marketing communications support for branding, visibility and lead generation through press relations, advertising, direct mail, promotions, trade shows, seminars and web sites. INNOVEDA COMPETITION The electronic design automation industry is highly competitive and Innoveda expects competition to increase as other electronic design automation companies continue to introduce new software tools used to design electronic products. Innoveda principally competes with Cadence Design Systems, Mentor Graphics and a number of smaller firms. Indirectly, Innoveda also competes with other firms that offer alternatives to electronic product design automation tools and could potentially offer more directly competitive products in the future. Certain of these companies have significantly greater financial, technical, sales and marketing resources and a larger installed customer bases than Innoveda. They also have established relationships with many customers, which can increase the complexity, difficulty and time required to compete for business from these customers. Some of Innoveda's current 59 and future competitors offer or may offer a more complete range of electronic design automation products and may distribute products that directly compete with Innoveda's products. Innoveda competes on the basis of various factors including: - product capabilities; - product performance and capacity; - availability of electronic chip information; - price; - support of industry standards; - ease of use; - first to market; and - customer technical support and service. Innoveda believes that it competes favorably overall with respect to these factors. However, in particular cases, Innoveda's competitors may offer products with functionality which is sought by Innoveda's prospective customers and which differs from that offered by Innoveda. In addition, some competitors may achieve a marketing advantage by establishing formal alliances with other electronic design automation vendors and chip manufacturers. Further, the electronic design automation industry in general has experienced significant consolidation in recent years, and the acquisition of one of Innoveda's competitors by a larger, more established, electronic design automation vendor could create a more significant competitor. Innoveda may not be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors. Innoveda's current and future competitors may be able to develop products comparable or superior to those developed by Innoveda or adapt more quickly than Innoveda to new technologies, evolving industry trends or customer requirements. Increased competition could result in price reductions, reduced margins and loss of market share, all of which could have a material adverse effect on Innoveda's business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. INNOVEDA PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT Innoveda's product development efforts are focused on integrating products acquired in recent acquisitions and enhancing and broadening its current line of products, including the development of new products and the release of improved versions of existing products on a regular basis. As of July 1, 2000, Innoveda's product development and customer support staff consisted of 163 persons. Innoveda's product development staff receives support from both Innoveda's consulting services personnel and its product and industry marketing organization to enable it to develop products that satisfy market requirements. Innoveda maintains cooperative relationships with most major hardware vendors on which Innoveda's products operate, as well as with new hardware vendors who desire Innoveda to modify its products for operation on their computer systems. Innoveda believes that these relationships allow it to design products that respond to emerging trends in computing, graphics and networking technologies. In certain instances, these relationships include joint marketing agreements that primarily outline a procedure for communication between Innoveda and the vendor with respect to technology and possible sales leads. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 1997, January 2, 1999 and January 1, 2000, Innoveda's research and development expenses were approximately $15.0 million, $10.0 million and $11.3 million, respectively. Innoveda believes that it must continue to commit substantial resources to enhance and extend its product line to remain competitive. Innoveda intends to continue to devote substantial 60 resources to its internally-funded product development and, if appropriate, to enter into development agreements with third parties. INNOVEDA SERVICE AND SUPPORT A key part of Innoveda's strategy to help make its customers successful is to provide a wide range of support services including on-site and hot-line support for designers, in-house and on-site training on all products, and consulting services for specialized tool development, tool and methodology training and design work. Innoveda believes its focus on customer service has helped it achieve a high degree of customer satisfaction. Product support is provided pursuant to maintenance agreements that generally extend for one year after the expiration of the product warranty, which is generally thirty days, and are renewable annually thereafter. The standard annual maintenance fee charged to customers is currently 15% of the then-current list price for the product. Innoveda's distributors and strategic sales partners charge their customers for maintenance and remit a negotiated portion to Innoveda. Training and consulting services are generally not included in Innoveda's software license or maintenance fees and are usually provided on a separately negotiated basis. PRODUCT REVISIONS AND UPGRADES. Customers with maintenance agreements receive all product revisions without additional charge. Product upgrades, which add significant new product functionality, are provided to customers for a fee that is generally equal to the difference between the list price for the upgrade and the license fee previously paid by the customer for the applicable product. ON-SITE AND HOTLINE SUPPORT. Support is available to Innoveda's software users on both a pre- and post-sale basis. Application engineers work directly with Innoveda's direct sales force to provide on-site support that is often needed during critical stages of the user's evaluation and design process. The majority of Innoveda's customers requiring support contact Innoveda through Innoveda's toll-free hotlines, which allow users access to engineers who are knowledgeable in the use of the product. Support is available from 8:30 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., Eastern Standard Time, Monday through Friday, excluding holidays. In addition to the hotline, questions or suggestions can be submitted by fax, an electronic bulletin board or the Internet network mail system. In addition, post-sales product application support is provided to customers through a series of automated support channels, including: - a quarterly technical support newsletter providing answers to common questions; - an electronic bulletin board system (a web-based support system) providing a forum for exchanging data and ideas; and - a fax-on-demand system enabling customers to retrieve faxes of technical application notes. An automatic call distribution system connects North American support callers with technical support personnel based in Marlboro, Massachusetts, San Jose, California and Camarillo, California. Additionally, technical support personnel based in California, Massachusetts, the United Kingdom, Israel and Japan have immediate access to shared, problem-solving technical information via a sophisticated on-line software support system. CUSTOMER TRAINING. Innoveda offers a variety of training programs for users ranging from introductory, broad-based courses to advanced and specialized courses. Training is offered at Innoveda's facilities in Marlboro, Massachusetts; San Jose, California; London, England; Marseilles, France; Munich, Germany; and Tokyo, Japan. On-site training is also available. 61 INNOVEDA CONSULTING SERVICES. The Innoveda Consulting Services Group is a global consulting organization staffed by experts in electronic design. The goal of the Innoveda Consulting Services Group is to meet the diverse and demanding needs of customers designing today's complex systems. The Innoveda Consulting Services Group provides a complete line of consulting services including training, product jumpstart programs, product design methodology assessment and partial or full design implementation. Other specialized services include systems integration, design database translation and custom library development. INNOVEDA PROPRIETARY RIGHTS Innoveda relies on a combination of contracts, patents, copyright and trade secret laws to establish and protect proprietary rights in its technology. Innoveda generally licenses and distributes its products under agreements providing for non-exclusive licenses. The licensed software may be used solely for internal operations on designated computers or networks. The source code of Innoveda's products is protected both as a trade secret and as an unpublished copyrighted work and is not generally made available to third parties. Despite these precautions, third parties may unlawfully copy or otherwise obtain and use Innoveda's products or technology without authorization. Innoveda provides its products to end-users primarily under "shrink-wrap" license agreements included within the software or as part of the packaging for the software. In addition, Innoveda delivers certain of its verification products electronically under an electronic version of a "shrink-wrap" license agreement. These agreements are not negotiated with or signed by the licensee, and thus may not be enforceable in certain jurisdictions. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect Innoveda "s proprietary rights as fully as do the laws of the United States. Innoveda "s means of protecting its proprietary rights in the United States or abroad may not be adequate, and competitors may independently develop similar technology. Innoveda could be increasingly subject to infringement claims as the number of products and competitors in Innoveda "s industry segment grows, the functionality of products in its industry segment overlaps and an increasing number of software patents are granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office. Although Innoveda is not aware of any threatened litigation or infringement claims, a third party may claim such infringement by Innoveda with respect to current or future products. Any such claims, with or without merit, could be time-consuming, result in costly litigation, cause product delays or require Innoveda to enter into royalty or licensing agreements. Such royalty or license agreements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to Innoveda or at all. Failure to protect its proprietary rights or claims of infringement could have a material adverse effect on Innoveda "s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. INNOVEDA EMPLOYEES As of July 1, 2000, Innoveda had 397 employees, including 147 in marketing and sales, 147 in product research and development, 40 in customer support, consulting and training, 16 in manufacturing and sales administration and 47 in general and administrative activities. None of Innoveda's employees is represented by a labor union or is subject to a collective bargaining agreement. Innoveda has never experienced a work stoppage and believes that its employee relations are excellent. INNOVEDA PROPERTIES Innoveda occupies 74,683 square feet of space at its headquarters in Marlboro, Massachusetts under a lease expiring in 2002, subject to Innoveda's right to extend the lease for up to six additional years. Innoveda also leases 14,397 square feet in Herzlia, Israel, 16,965 square feet in San Jose, California, 21,000 square feet in Camarillo, California, 13,829 square feet of office space in the United Kingdom and a number of small sales and support offices in locations in North America, Europe and Asia. INNOVEDA LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Innoveda is not a party to any material legal proceedings. 62 INNOVEDA MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW Innoveda, a publicly traded Delaware corporation, was created by the merger of Summit Design and Viewlogic Systems which was completed on March 23, 2000. The merger of Summit with Viewlogic on March 23, 2000 was accounted for as a reverse acquisition as the former stockholders of Viewlogic owned a majority of the outstanding stock of Summit subsequent to the merger. For accounting purposes, Viewlogic is deemed to have acquired Summit. At the effective time of the merger of Summit and Viewlogic, a wholly owned subsidiary of Summit merged with and into Viewlogic, with Viewlogic surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Summit. In connection with that merger, Summit changed its name to Innoveda. Pursuant to that merger, Summit issued 16,337,979 shares of its common stock to Viewlogic stockholders in exchange for all the outstanding capital stock of Viewlogic (24,051,963 outstanding shares) at a .67928-to-1 exchange ratio. After the transaction, Viewlogic stockholders owned 50.6% of the outstanding common stock of Innoveda, and the former Summit shareholders owned the remaining 15,941,418 shares of Innoveda common stock. All financial information presented herein for the periods prior to March 23, 2000 represents only the financial results for Viewlogic. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the fiscal 1999 consolidated financial statements of Viewlogic and Summit, the Innoveda Current Report on Form 8-K dated March 23, 2000, as filed with the SEC on April 17, 2000 and as amended on May 15, 2000, the Innoveda Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended April 1, 2000, as filed with the SEC on May 16, 2000 and the other financial information incorporated by reference in this consent solicitation statement/prospectus. On December 4, 1997, a company which offered two primary product lines, tools used by engineers designing integrated circuits and tools used by engineers designing printed circuit boards and complete systems, became a wholly owned subsidiary of Synopsys in a transaction accounted for as a pooling of interests. That company was also called Viewlogic Systems, and we refer to it as the Prior Viewlogic. On January 1, 1998, the Prior Viewlogic transferred the integrated circuit design tools business and other assets to Synopsys leaving only the printed circuit board and complete system design tools business in the Prior Viewlogic. Synopsys created a new legal entity to conduct the printed circuit board and complete system design tools business of the Prior Viewlogic, which became Viewlogic in a corporate reorganization on March 31, 1998. For the period from December 4, 1997 through October 2, 1998, Viewlogic operated as a wholly owned subsidiary of Synopsys and some treasury services were provided by Synopsys at no charge. The fair value of these services was not significant. On October 2, 1998, a group of investors purchased 16,000,000 shares of Viewlogic's preferred stock for $32.0 million and Viewlogic borrowed $18.0 million from a commercial bank. Synopsys received the proceeds from these financings through a recapitalization of Viewlogic. As a result of these transactions, the investors owned 80.1% of the capital stock of Viewlogic, and Synopsys owned 19.9%. These transactions were accounted for as a recapitalization. The results of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 represent the results of the printed circuit board and complete system design tools business derived from the historical financial statements of the Prior Viewlogic and exclude the integrated circuit design tools business. During 1997, the Prior Viewlogic established separate departments to capture product development, technical support and product marketing expenses of both the printed circuit board and complete system design tools business and the integrated circuit design tools business. In addition, the Prior Viewlogic segregated its revenue and product costs and created income statements for each business. Prior to December 4, 1997, the Prior Viewlogic centralized many administrative, marketing and other services. In addition, the Prior Viewlogic distributed both its integrated circuit design tools and printed circuit board and complete system design tools products primarily through one combined sales force. 63 Accordingly, Innoveda has made allocations of these expenses based on revenue, personnel, space, estimates of time spent to provide services or other appropriate bases. Innoveda's management believes that the Prior Viewlogic made these allocations on a reasonable basis. However, they are not necessarily indicative of the costs that would have been incurred on a stand-alone basis. Before 1997, the Prior Viewlogic did not prepare internal income statements for the integrated circuit design tools and the printed circuit board and complete system design tools businesses and therefore did not capture revenue and costs in the same manner as it did in 1997. To prepare the financial data for the printed circuit board and complete system design tools business for the years ended December 31, 1995 and December 31, 1996, Viewlogic made assumptions in order to classify revenue as related to either printed circuit board and complete system design tools or integrated circuit design tools. Where possible, the identifiable direct costs of printed circuit board and complete system design tools revenue have been reflected as direct expenses. In addition to these direct expenses, all expenses which could not be clearly identified as integrated circuit design tools or printed circuit board and complete system design tools expenses have been allocated on bases which Innoveda's management believes are appropriate, similar to the manner in which it allocated expenses in 1997. Based on this methodology, Innoveda's management believes the income statements for 1995 and 1996 reasonably approximate the revenue, costs and expenses of the printed circuit board and complete system design tools business on a historical basis. At the end of 1997, the Prior Viewlogic restructured its operations, and 222 employees were retained by the printed circuit board and complete system design tools business, 291 employees transferred to Synopsys and 217 people were terminated. During the nine months of calendar year 1998, during which Viewlogic was a wholly owned subsidiary of Synopsys, its primary goal was to optimize short-term profitability. Viewlogic sought to achieve this goal by reducing its consulting, sales, marketing and research and development expenditures and focusing its remaining resources primarily on servicing its installed base of customers. Since October 2, 1998, through January 1, 2000, Viewlogic increased staffing from 219 to 272. Viewlogic's management believes this increase was appropriate in order to build its business for the long term. Innoveda operates in the United States and international markets developing, marketing and providing a comprehensive family of software tools used by engineers in the design of advanced electronic products and systems and services related to those software tools. Innoveda currently markets and sells its products worldwide through multiple distribution channels, including independent distributors, value added resellers, a direct sales organization, telesales and strategic sales alliances with original equipment manufacturer partners. 64 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the percentage of revenue of certain items in Innoveda's consolidated statements of operations:

TWELVE MONTHS ENDED JANUARY 2, 1999 AND JANUARY 1, 2000 REVENUE For the twelve months ended January 2, 1999 and January 1, 2000, total revenue decreased 3% from $55.2 million to $53.5 million. The decrease in revenue was primarily due to a 9% decrease in service revenue which was offset by an increase in software license revenue. As a percentage of total revenue, software license revenue increased from 41% for the twelve months ended January 2, 1999 to 45% for the twelve months ended January 1, 2000. Software license revenue for the twelve months ended January 2, 1999 and January 1, 2000 increased 5% from $22.7 million to $23.9 million. Service revenue decreased from $32.6 million for the twelve months ended January 2, 1999 to $29.6 million for the twelve months ended January 1, 2000 primarily due to decreased maintenance revenues. This was primarily attributable to several major customers not renewing maintenance contracts due to the fact they were using products in applications related to integrated circuit design tools, which are no longer fully supported by Innoveda. Additionally, a number of customers migrated their products from the version based on the Unix operating system to the version based on the Windows/NT operating system, which have lower maintenance prices. Training and consulting revenues remained relatively unchanged for the twelve months ended January 2, 1999 and January 1, 2000. Revenue generated from European operations was $8.7 million and $8.8 million for the twelve months ended January 2, 1999 and January 1, 2000, respectively, or 16% of total revenue in each period. Revenue from Japan was $4.7 million and $4.5 million, or 9% and 8% of total revenue, respectively, in each period. No customer accounted for more than 10% of revenue in either period. COST OF SOFTWARE REVENUE Cost of software revenue increased 18% from $5.1 million for the twelve months ended January 2, 1999 to $6.0 million for the twelve months ended January 1, 2000, primarily due to increased royalty costs payable to Synopsys resulting from new licensing agreements. The amortization of capitalized 65 software included in cost of software revenue for the twelve months ended January 2, 1999 and January 1, 2000 was approximately $1.0 million. COST OF SERVICES AND OTHER Cost of service revenue increased 25% from $5.1 million to $6.4 million and, as a percentage of service revenue, increased from 16% to 22% for the twelve months ended January 2, 1999 and January 1, 2000. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the consulting staff in anticipation of future growth in this area. SALES AND MARKETING Sales and marketing expenses increased 19% from $18.9 million for the twelve months ended January 2, 1999 to $22.5 million for the twelve months ended January 1, 2000. The increase was primarily attributable to higher personnel-related costs due to an increase in the number of worldwide sales and marketing personnel from 104 in December 1998 to 115 in December 1999. Selling and marketing expenses, as a percentage of total revenue, increased from 34% to 42% for the twelve months ended January 2, 1999 and January 1, 2000. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Research and development costs increased 13% from $10.0 million to $11.3 million for the twelve months ended January 2, 1999 and January 1, 2000. The increase in research and development expenses primarily reflects higher personnel-related costs associated with investment in new product development and enhancement of existing products. This includes the addition of staff associated with the purchase of assets from Omniview, which was completed during the first quarter of 1999, as well as the acquisition of Transcendent Design Technology which was completed in August 1999. Research and development expense as a percentage of total revenue was 18% for the twelve months ended January 2, 1999 and 21% for the twelve months ended January 1, 2000. The amount of software development costs capitalized for the twelve months ended January 2, 1999 was $1.3 million or 12% of research and development costs for that period, and for the twelve months ended January 1, 2000 was $1.1 million or 9% of total research and development costs for that period. GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE General and administrative expense increased from $3.7 million to $3.9 million for the twelve months ended January 2, 1999 to January 1, 2000. This was primarily due to efforts to continue to build infrastructure to support future growth. General and administrative expense as a percentage of total revenue remained at 7% for the twelve months ended January 2, 1999 and January 1, 2000. AMORTIZATION OF INTANGIBLES On March 16, 1999, Viewlogic purchased substantially all of the assets and intellectual property of Omniview. The purchase price consisted of $1.1 million in cash, 400,000 shares of Viewlogic common stock and acquisition expenses and was allocated to the assets based on their fair value, including $1.2 million of intangible assets. On August 15, 1999, Viewlogic purchased Transcendent Design Technology by means of a subsidiary merger in which Viewlogic issued 724,000 shares of common stock and assumed options exercisable into 78,000 additional shares of Viewlogic common stock. The allocation of the purchase price in this transaction resulted in $2.6 million of intangible assets. The intangibles created in these two transactions resulted in $670,000 of amortization expense for the twelve months ended January 1, 2000. INTEREST EXPENSE, NET Interest expense, net of interest income, increased to $1.2 million for the twelve months ended January 1, 2000 compared to $171,000 for the twelve months ended January 2, 1999, primarily due to increased borrowings under Viewlogic's credit facility. In addition, during 1999 Viewlogic entered into 66 capital lease agreements to finance the purchases of computer equipment and software increasing its capital lease obligation, which also contributed to the increase in interest expense. OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE), NET Other income (expense) consists of gains or losses on the disposal of property and equipment, foreign currency gains and losses and amortization of professional fees incurred in connection with Viewlogic's credit facility. Other expense was $1.8 million for the twelve months ended January 2, 1999 and was $404,000 for the twelve months ended January 1, 2000. During 1998 Viewlogic's Japanese subsidiary repaid an amount that had previously been treated as a long-term investment. The repayment of this amount resulted in a realized transaction loss of $1.4 million. INCOME TAXES The provision for federal and state income taxes decreased 93% from $4.1 million for the twelve months ended January 2, 1999 to $281,000 for the twelve months ended January 1, 2000, primarily due to the drop in income before taxes. The effective tax rate for the twelve months ended January 2, 1999 was 41%, compared to 52% for the twelve months ended January 1, 2000. LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND FINANCIAL CONDITION Prior to October 1998, Viewlogic funded its activities primarily through operations. In connection with the recapitalization of Viewlogic, on October 2, 1998, Viewlogic entered into a $24.0 million credit facility with Fleet Bank consisting of a $6.0 million revolving line of credit and an $18.0 million term loan. Borrowings under the credit facility are secured by substantially all of Innoveda's assets. The credit facility contains limitations on additional indebtedness and capital expenditures, and includes financial covenants, including covenants related to the maintenance of minimum levels of profitability, interest and debt service coverage ratios and maximum leverage ratios. Innoveda was in compliance with the covenants at April 1, 2000. Viewlogic's operating activities provided cash of approximately $438,000 for the twelve months ended January 1, 2000. Cash generated from operations for the twelve months ended January 1, 2000 was attributable primarily to net income of $259,000, non-cash depreciation and amortization of $4.0 million, and an increase in deferred revenue of approximately $1.6 million, which were offset in part by an increase in accounts receivable of $4.5 million, a decrease in deferred income taxes of $70,000 and a decrease in accounts payable of $1.1 million. Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $3.2 million for the twelve months ended January 1, 2000. Viewlogic used $1.2 million in cash for the twelve months ended January 1, 2000 for the purchase of certain assets of Omniview and the remainder being used for property and equipment and capitalized software. Net cash used in financing activities for the twelve months ended January 1, 2000 was approximately $1.2 million, primarily to repay long-term debt. As of July 1, 2000, Innoveda had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $21.7 million and borrowings of approximately $10.0 million under its credit facility. Assuming the merger is completed, Innoveda expects to pay approximately $1.7 million to PADS' stockholders and is required to pay off approximately $7.5 million of PADS' debt. Innoveda expects to partially fund these amounts by using PADS' cash available at the closing. As of March 31, 2000, PADS had approximately $3.6 million in cash. Innoveda believes that its current cash and cash equivalents combined with its current line of credit, and together with funds expected to be generated from operations, will satisfy anticipated cash requirements for at least the next twelve months. RECENT DEVELOPMENT On July 28, 2000 Innoveda entered into an agreement with Synopsys in which Synopsys agreed to acquire Innoveda's VirSim electronic design software tool and related assets for a purchase price of $7.0 million. VirSim is used as a debugging and analysis environment with hardware description 67 language simulators, including the Synopsys' VCS Verilog simulator. The sale was completed on August 1, 2000. Previously, Synopsys licensed VirSim from Innoveda on an original equipment manufacturer basis. Innoveda has retained rights to the product source code and plans to integrate the functionality of VirSim with its suite of verification tools. Other VirSim original equipment manufacturer agreements have been transferred to Synopsys. Innoveda customers who purchased VirSim bundled with other products from Innoveda will have continued support from Innoveda and will be transitioned to integrated version of the technology over time. The sale will reduce anticipated revenues for the balance of the year by approximately $1.2 million due to the elimination of revenue from VirSim royalities. In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." The SAB summarizes certain of the SEC's views in applying revenue recognition in financial statements. The provisions of SAB No. 101 are effective in the fourth quarter of our fiscal year beginning January 2, 2000. We have not yet completed our evaluation of the effects of SAB No. 101. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK INTEREST RATE RISK Innoveda is exposed to interest rate risk primarily through its credit facility. On October 2, 1998, Innoveda entered into a $24.0 million credit facility with Fleet National Bank consisting of a $6.0 million revolving line of credit and an $18.0 million term loan. Interest terms on the line of credit and the term loan are determined, at the option of Innoveda, for varying periods. Innoveda may elect to have the interest rate based on Fleet's prime rate or based on the LIBOR rate at the time of the election, depending on Innoveda's leverage financial rate as defined in the credit facility. As of January 1, 2000, the interest rate on the line of credit was 7.3% and on the term loan was 8.26%. As of July 1, 2000, the interest rate on the line of credit was 7.3% and on the term loan was 9.03%. Payments of principal outstanding under either the line of credit or the term loan may be made at any time and must be repaid in full by September 30, 2003. On October 3, 1998, as required under the credit facility, Innoveda entered into a no-fee interest swap agreement with Fleet to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on its floating rate credit facility. This agreement effectively converts a portion of the floating-rate obligation into a fixed-rate obligation of 7.2% for a period of 60 months, expiring on September 30, 2003. The notional principal amount of the interest rate-swap agreement was $7.8 million as of January 1, 2000. Innoveda is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to the interest rate-swap agreement. Open interest rate contracts are reviewed regularly by Innoveda to ensure that they remain effective as hedges of interest rate exposure. Management believes that the rate-swap agreement approximates fair value. After taking into consideration the interest-swap agreement, a hypothetical 10% adverse movement in average interest rates would not have a material effect on Innoveda's financial results. FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK Innoveda is also exposed to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. Since Innoveda translates foreign currencies into U.S. dollars for reporting purposes, weakened currencies in its subsidiaries have a negative, though immaterial, impact on its results. Innoveda also believes that the exposure to currency exchange fluctuation risk is insignificant because its international subsidiaries sell to customers, and satisfy their financial obligations, almost exclusively in their local currencies. Innoveda entered into foreign exchange contracts as a hedge against certain accounts receivable denominated in foreign currencies during the six months ended July 1, 2000. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign exchange contracts for the six months ended July 1, 2000 were insignificant. Based on a hypothetical 10% adverse movement in foreign currency exchange rates, the potential losses in future earnings, fair value of risk-sensitive instruments and cash flows are immaterial, although the actual effects may differ materially from the hypothetical analysis. 68 PADS' BUSINESS PADS provides interconnect design software that automates and optimizes the design, verification and manufacture of complex interconnect systems, such as printed circuit boards, multi-chip modules and advanced integrated circuit packages.

PADS anticipates that it will continue to commit substantial resources to research and development in the future. SALES AND DISTRIBUTION PADS distributes its products worldwide through multiple distribution channels. In North America, PADS utilizes resellers, direct sales, telesales and original equipment manufacturers. For international sales, PADS relies primarily on resellers, with an additional direct presence in Asia. NORTH AMERICA RESELLERS. Independent value added resellers and distributors are PADS' primary sales and distribution channel in North America. This reseller channel enables PADS to broadly and inexpensively target mainstream market users. PADS' resellers are responsible for first line sales and support to its end customers and often participate in regional tradeshows and conduct seminars throughout their assigned territories. Resellers may distribute the entire interconnect product family or focus on specific products. As of June 30, 2000, PADS had 11 resellers in North America. DIRECT SALES. PADS utilizes direct sales to target accounts that wish to deal directly with it for large purchases, have longer sales cycles or have more complex requirements. PADS maintains domestic sales and support offices in Marlboro, Massachusetts; Parsippany, New Jersey; Austin, Texas; Redmond, Washington; Los Gatos, California and Newport Beach, California. Each direct sales team consists of a senior sales representative and an applications engineer. As of June 30, 2000, PADS employed six direct sales teams in North America. TELESALES. PADS' telesales personnel focus on tactical opportunities and at times support the efforts of its resellers or direct sales representatives. An application engineer is assigned to the telesales organization to provide pre-sales technical support via telephone and e-mail. As of June 30, 2000, PADS employed 13 telesales representatives. ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURERS. PADS also uses original equipment manufacturers to distribute its manufacturing and signal analysis products as add-on options to their own proprietary product offerings, most of which are competitive printed circuit board layout systems. The original equipment manufacturers are responsible for all marketing, sales and support of the products they license to end-users. As of June 30, 2000, PADS had business relationships with three original equipment manufacturers. INTERNATIONAL ASIA. PADS utilizes a network of resellers for distribution of its products in Asia. Because Asia presents a significant language and cultural challenge, PADS has established a direct local presence through a subsidiary, PADS Asia, based in Hong Kong. PADS Asia is staffed by a sales manager as well as technical and administrative personnel, all of whom are multilingual. PADS Asia manages all of PADS' business in Taiwan, China, Hong Kong and other Asian countries, except for Japan and Korea, which are managed directly from the United States. As of June 30, 2000, PADS had eight resellers in Asia. 71 EUROPE AND THE REST OF THE WORLD. PADS relies primarily on resellers for the sale and distribution of products in Europe. PADS' international resellers localize its products and provide first level sales and technical support. PADS provides direct technical and marketing support to its international reseller channel. Many of PADS' European resellers also invest in regional marketing programs and advertising, conduct seminars and support user groups to promote our products. PADS has a sales support office in Oxford, England that supports its European resellers. As of June 30, 2000, PADS had 25 resellers in Europe and the rest of the world.

PADS anticipates that it will continue to commit resources to marketing its products worldwide across multiple industries. Through its vendor integration alliance program, PADS has joint marketing relationships with 35 other electronic design automation vendors who provide complementary products, ranging from design engineering software to automated assembly and testing software. This program allows PADS to integrated portions of its interconnect solutions with existing solutions from other vendors, thus increasing the likelihood of a product sale regardless of the development process. EMPLOYEES As of June 30, 2000, PADS had 151 full-time employees, including 10 in marketing, 53 in sales, 55 in research and development, quality assurance and customer support and 33 in general and administrative capacities. PADS' employees are not represented by a labor union or subject to a collective bargaining agreement. PADS believes that its employee relations are good. PROPERTIES PADS occupies approximately 25,170 square feet of space at its headquarters in Marlboro, Massachusetts under a lease expiring in 2009. In addition, PADS occupies a total of approximately 9,000 square feet of space in Los Gatos, California; Redmond, Washington and its sales offices in Parsippany, New Jersey; San Jose, California and Austin, Texas. PADS believes that its existing facilities are adequate for its current needs and that suitable additional space will be available as needed. For additional information regarding our lease obligations, see Note 7 to our Financial Statements. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS On April 7, 2000, an action was filed against PADS in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California by Protel International and its wholly owned subsidiary, Accel Technologies, alleging violation of the Lanham Act and various claims arising under California law, including unfair competition, defamation and false advertising. At this early state in the litigation, it is difficult to express an opinion as to its likely outcome. 72 PADS MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW PADS Software launched its principal product, PowerPCB, in January 1996 as the successor to PADS' previous principal product, PADS-Perform. PowerPCB is an industry leading shape-based printed circuit board layout system. Since 1996, a majority of PADS' revenue has come from licensing PowerPCB and providing related support and maintenance services. PADS' revenue from PowerPCB as a percentage of total revenue was 72%, 74%, 65%, for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1998, and 1999, respectively. PADS' revenue from PowerPCB as a percentage of total revenue was 65% and 68% for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 2000, respectively. During the past two years, PADS has expanded the family of interconnect design offerings by developing new products, such as PowerBGA, a high density interconnect design solution, and PowerLogic, a schematic capture system. PADS has also acquired companies that provided new products such as LineSim, a transmission line constraint calculator, BoardSim, a PCB signal integrity and emission analysis tool, and CAM350, a fabrication optimization tool. Although PADS believes that PowerPCB will continue to provide the largest source of revenue for the foreseeable future, it is believed that the revenue from PowerPCB will decrease as a percentage of total revenue as these new products continue to expand in the market. PADS' revenue is derived from sales of software and services. Software revenue includes revenue from the sale of PADS' noncancellable software license agreements with end-users. Software revenue also includes, to a lesser extent, the sale of third-party products that PADS distributes, principally Cadence's SPECCTRA autorouter, a printed circuit board component routing tool, and Innoveda's Viewdraw, a conceptual circuit simulation tool. Revenue from the sale of software licenses is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable and collection of the receivable is probable. It is PADS' policy that, prior to the delivery of a software license to an end user or value added reseller, the order is supported by a signed purchase order. The sale is recorded net of any value added reseller discounts. When arrangements contain multiple elements and vendor-specific objective evidence exists for all undelivered elements, revenue is allocated to the delivered elements using the residual method as prescribed by Statement of Position No. 98-9, "Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions." Vendor-specific objective evidence is based on the renewal rate, if applicable, or the price charged when the same element is sold separately or if an element has not yet been sold separately, the price established by management having the relevant authority. Service and other revenue consists primarily of maintenance revenue which is deferred and recognized ratably over the maintenance period, generally twelve months. Revenue is classified as domestic or international. A significant portion of international sales is generated in Europe and Asia. PADS' revenue from international sales as a percentage of total revenue was 33%, 25%, and 25% for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1998, and 1999, respectively. PADS' revenue from international sales as a percentage of total revenue was 25% and 23% for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 2000, respectively. International sales present certain risks and uncertainties not generally encountered in the United States. Cost of revenue has two components: cost of software revenue and cost of service revenue. Cost of software revenue represents costs associated with licensing products, such as expenses for product documentation, disks and packaging, security keys, shipping costs, royalties paid to third-party software providers and amortization of acquisition related purchased technology and capitalized software costs. Applicable software development costs are capitalized in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed" and with Statement of Position No. 98-1 "Accounting for Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use". These costs are amortized over the estimated useful lives of the related product, typically three years. Cost of service revenue includes costs of 73 providing technical support, software revision releases and the royalty portion of service revenue payable to third-party software providers. ACQUISITIONS HYPERLYNX ACQUISITION In January 1996, PADS signed a technology and distribution agreement with HyperLynx, a provider of signal integrity and electromagnetic compliance analysis software for the Windows and Windows/NT platforms. The agreement also included an option to acquire HyperLynx's assets. In May 1997, PADS exercised the option to acquire HyperLynx's assets for a cash payment of $201,000 of which $54,000 had been advanced to HyperLynx in the prior year, and the remainder was paid in the form of non-interest-bearing notes of $837,000. The total purchase price, after discounting notes payable of $48,000, was $990,000. PADS accounted for the acquisition as a purchase, and, accordingly, the results of HyperLynx's operations from the date of the acquisition forward have been included in PADS' financial results. The purchase price was allocated to the fair value of the assets acquired as follows: $46,000 to property and equipment, $3,000 to inventory, $461,000 to existing technology, $50,000 to tradename, $56,000 to workforce and $374,000 to in-process technology. Under the terms of the agreement, royalty payments, based on the sales of certain HyperLynx products, would be made to the former owners of HyperLynx. The maximum yearly amount of the royalty payments was $320,000 for each of the three years beginning in May 1997. The royalty payments are also contingent on PADS' continued employment of the former owners. Through March 31, 2000, PADS had incurred $960,000 of royalties, which have been included as a component of cost of software revenue. ADVANCED CAM TECHNOLOGIES ACQUISITION In August 1998, PADS acquired Advanced CAM Technologies, or ACT, a supplier of personal computer-based computer aided manufacturing tools. The total purchase price of $8.2 million consisted of $4.5 million in cash, 269,182 shares of PADS' series B convertible preferred stock, which were valued at $3,050,000, options to purchase 30,800 shares of common stock, which were valued at $349,000, and $277,000 of acquisition costs. PADS accounted for the acquisition as a purchase and, accordingly, the results of ACT's operations from the date of the acquisition forward have been included in PADS' financial results. The purchase price was allocated to the fair value of the assets acquired as follows: $1.6 million to existing technology, $2.4 million to in-process research and development and $500,000 to work force. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired, approximately $3.5 million, has been recorded as goodwill and is included in acquired intangible assets. In connection with both of the acquisitions, PADS is amortizing the acquired intangible assets over their estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis. The existing technology purchased had an estimated life of 2.5 years for the HyperLynx asset and 1.5 years for the ACT asset, and the amortization is included as a component of the cost of software revenue. Amortization was $101,000, $644,000, $1.3 million for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1998, and 1999, respectively. Amortization was $326,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and there was no amortization during the three months ended March 31, 2000. The workforce value has an estimated life of five years and the amortization is included as a component of research and development operating expenses. Amortization was $7,000, $53,000, and $111,000 for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1998, and 1999, respectively. Amortization was $28,000 for both the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 2000. The goodwill has an estimated useful life of ten years and the amortization is included as a component of general and administrative expenses. Amortization was $145,000 and $349,000 for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1999, respectively. Amortization was $87,000 for both of the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 2000. The trade name has an estimated useful life of ten years and the amortization is included as a component of general and administrative expenses. Amortization was $3,000, $5,000, and $5,000 for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999, respectively. Amortization was $1,000 for both the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 2000. 74 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the percentage of revenue of certain items in PADS' consolidated statements of operations:

75 THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 REVENUE For the three months ended March 31, 2000, total revenue increased 23.1% to $7.2 million from $5.8 million for the same period in 1999. This increase was due to growth in both software and service revenues. As a percentage of total revenue, software revenue increased to 64.5% in the first three months of 2000 from 62.8% for the same period in 1999. Software revenue increased 26.5% to $4.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $3.6 million for the same period in 1999. This increase is due to the focus by PADS on its direct sales distribution channels with the sales of PowerPCB accounting for the majority of the increase in software revenue. Service revenue decreased as a percentage of total revenue to 35.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2000 from 37.2% for the same period in 1999. The decrease is due primarily to a proportionately higher increase in total software revenue in 1999. Service revenue increased 17.2% to $2.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $2.2 million for the same period in 1999. This increase in service revenue was primarily attributable to a larger installed customer base. COST OF REVENUE Cost of software revenue decreased 37.3% to $.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $.9 million for the same period in 1999. This decrease was primarily attributable to decreased third-party royalties due to the mix of products sold and decreased amortization of acquisition related purchased technology. As a percentage of software revenue, cost of software revenue decreased to 12.5% in the three months ended March 31, 2000 from 25.3% for the same period in 1999. Cost of service revenue dollars remained constant for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and for the same period in 1999. As a percentage of service revenue, cost of service revenue decreased to 14.4% in the three months ended March 31, 2000 from 16% for the same period in 1999. This decrease was primarily attributable to a change in the mix of products sold lowering the royalty cost and minimal expense growth in the technical support organization. SELLING AND MARKETING Selling and marketing expenses include salaries, commissions and related personnel costs, and other sales and promotional expenses. Selling and marketing expenses increased 17.5% to $2.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $2.2 million for the same period in 1999. The increase reflects the continued expansion of PADS' selling and marketing organizations. As a percentage of total revenue, selling and marketing expenses decreased to 36.6% in the three months ended March 31, 2000 from 38.4% for the same period in 1999. This decrease was due primarily to a proportionately higher increase in revenue in 2000. PADS expects selling and marketing expenses to increase in absolute terms. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Research and development expenses, consisting primarily of personnel and contracting costs, remained relatively the same for the three months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to the same period in 1999. This was a result of maintaining consistent staffing levels. As a percentage of total revenue, research and development expenses decreased to 21.4% in the three months ended March 31, 2000 from 26.2% for the same period in 1999. PADS expects research and development expenses to increase in absolute terms. PADS' capitalized software development costs of $321,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2000 compared to no costs capitalized for the three months ended March 31, 1999. The 76 amount capitalized represents 17% of total research and development costs including capitalized amounts for this period. GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE General and administrative expenses include the costs associated with the executive office, human resources, information systems and finance personnel. General and administrative expenses increased 26.5% to $1.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $864,000 for the same period in 1999. The increase was primarily due to a general increase in personnel costs associated with increased head count. As a percentage of total revenue, general and administrative expenses were consistent at 15% of revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999. PADS expects general and administrative expenses to increase in absolute terms. INTEREST EXPENSE Interest expense was constant for the three months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to the same period in 1999. This was due primarily to constant levels of outstanding indebtedness and no additional borrowings during these periods. FOREIGN EXCHANGE GAIN (LOSS) AND OTHER Foreign exchange gains and other was $62,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to $290,000 for the same period in 1999. This decrease was due to the fluctuation of the Japanese Yen which resulted in lower unrealized gains on notes payable. Approximately $7.3 million of PADS' debt as of March 31, 2000 was denominated in Yen. INCOME TAXES In the three months ended March 31, 2000, PADS recorded a tax provision of $240,000 on a income before taxes of $960,000 as compared to $27,000 on income before tax of $155,000 for the same period in 1999. PADS' effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was 25% compared to 17.4% for the same period in 1999 and was based on an estimated annual effective rate. NET INCOME (LOSS) As a result of the above factors, net income for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was $720,000 as compared to a net income of $128,000 for the same period in 1999. YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998 REVENUE Total revenue increased 16.9% to $25.7 million in 1999 from $22 million in 1998. Software revenue increased 9.2% to $16.4 million in 1999 from $15 million in 1998. This increase was the result of a full year of sales in 1999 from the ACT acquisition combined with additional sales of HyperLynx's products in 1999. As a percentage of total revenue, software revenue decreased to 63.6% in 1999 from 68.1% in 1998. Service revenue increased 33.5% to $9.3 million in 1999 from $7.0 million in 1998. This increase in service revenue was primarily attributable to PADS' larger installed base of customers. Service revenue increased as a percentage of total revenue to 36.4% in 1999 from 31.9% in 1998. COST OF REVENUE Cost of software revenue increased 6.3% to $4.1 million in 1999 from $3.8 million in 1998. The increase in absolute dollars was primarily attributable to increased amortization of purchased technology relating to the acquisitions offset by change in the mix of products sold lowering the royalty 77 cost. As a percentage of software revenue, cost of software revenue remained constant at 25% in both 1999 and 1998. Cost of service revenue increased 23.9% to $1.5 million in 1999 from $1.2 million in 1998. The increase was attributable primarily to additional royalties on a higher level of third-party product renewals and increased technical support personnel to support a larger customer base. As a percentage of service revenue, cost of service revenue decreased to 16.4% in 1999 from 17.6% in 1998. SELLING AND MARKETING Selling and marketing expenses increased 17.5% to $9.4 million in 1999 from $7.9 million in 1998. The increase in selling and marketing expenses was due to the expansion of PADS' sales and marketing organization in the United States and increased advertising costs. As a percentage of total revenue, selling and marketing expenses remained constant at 36% in 1999 and 1998. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Research and development expenses increased 31.1% to $6.2 million in 1999 from $4.8 million in 1998. The increase in research and development expenses in 1999 resulted principally from the employment of additional staff to develop technology for PADS' PowerPCB, BoardSim, LineSim, PowerBGA and PowerLogic products. Additionally, PADS increased the use of contracting services provided by Milena, a third-party software developer, to support PADS continued investment in the development of new and existing products. As a percentage of total revenue, research and development expenses increased to 24.2% in 1999 from 21.6% in 1998. PADS capitalized software development costs of $486,000 and $412,000 in 1999 and 1998, respectively. The amounts capitalized represented 7% and 8% of total research and development costs including capitalized amounts for 1999 and 1998, respectively. GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE General and administrative expenses increased 32.8% to $4.0 million in 1999 from $3.0 million in 1998. The increase in general and administrative expenses was due primarily to the growth in the staff required to support increased levels of operations offset by legal and accounting expenses relating to its cancelled initial public offering of common stock which were expensed in 1998. As a percentage of total revenue, general and administrative expenses increased in 1999 to 15.4% from 13.6% in 1998. INTEREST EXPENSE Interest expense was consistent for the year ended December 31, 1999 as compared to 1998. This was due primarily to constant levels of outstanding indebtedness and no additional borrowings during these periods. FOREIGN EXCHANGE GAIN (LOSS) AND OTHER Foreign exchange losses decreased 24.4% to $731,000 in 1999 from $836,000 in 1998. The losses were due to the fluctuation of the Yen which resulted in unrealized losses on the notes payable that are denominated in Yen. Approximately $7.6 million of PADS' debt as of December 31, 1999 was denominated in Yen. INCOME TAXES PADS' effective tax rate for 1999 and 1998 was 17.3% and 6.7%, respectively, which differed from the combined federal and state statutory rate of approximately 40%, due primarily to the use of research and development tax credit carryforwards, the nondeductibility, for tax purposes, of the 78 in-process research and development charge, and to a reduction in the valuation allowance to reflect PADS' ability to realize the deferred tax assets in the future. NET INCOME As a result of the above factors, the net loss decreased by 84% to $344,000 in 1999, or 1.3% of revenue, from $2.1 million, or 9.6% of revenue, in 1998. Excluding the $2.4 million charge for in-process research and development relating to the ACT acquisition, net income for 1998 would have been $297,000. YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 REVENUE Through December 31, 1997, PADS had revenue from a printed circuit board resale business, which was discontinued effective January 1, 1998 in order to focus on PADS' core interconnect design software business. In 1998, total revenue increased 29% to $22 million from $17 million in 1997. This increase was due to growth in both software and service revenue. As a percentage of total revenue, software revenue increased to 68.1% in 1998 from 67.3% in 1997. Service revenue increased as a percentage of total revenue to 31.9% in 1998 from 28% in 1997. Software revenue increased 30.6% to $15 million in 1998 from $11.5 million in 1997. This increase is due to the focus by PADS on its direct sales distribution channels with the sales of PowerPCB accounting for the majority of the increase in software revenue. Service revenue increased 46.6% to $7.0 million in 1998 from $4.8 million in 1997. This increase in service revenue was primarily attributable to a larger installed customer base. COST OF REVENUE Cost of software revenue increased 37.7% to $3.8 million in 1998 from $2.8 million in 1997. This increase was primarily attributable to an increased level of software sales. As a percentage of software revenue, cost of software revenue increased to 25.5% in 1998 from 24.2% in 1997. This increase was primarily the result of higher royalty rates due on sales of third-party software. Cost of service revenue increased 8.9% to $1.2 million in 1998 from $1.1 million in 1997. As a percentage of service revenue, cost of service revenue decreased to 17.7% in 1998 from 23.8% in 1997. This decrease was due primarily to lower royalty rates payable to third-parties relating to software maintenance. SELLING AND MARKETING Selling and marketing expenses increased 20.6% to $8 million in 1998 from $6.6 million in 1997. Total selling and marketing expenses increased as a result of continued expansion of the selling and marketing organizations and increased promotional activity. As a percentage of total revenue, selling and marketing expenses decreased to 36.3% in 1998 from 38.8% in 1997. PADS expects selling and marketing expenses to increase in absolute terms. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Research and development expenses increased 63.8% to $4.8 million in 1998 from $2.9 million in 1997. This increase was primarily attributable to increases in salaries and salary-related costs and increased use of contracting services provided by Milena, a third-party software developer, to support PADS' continued investment in the development of new and existing products. As a percentage of total revenue, research and development expenses increased to 21.6% in 1998 from 17% for the same period in 1997. PADS expects research and development expenses to continue to increase in absolute terms. 79 PADS capitalized software development costs of $412,000 during 1998 compared with $672,000 for 1997. The amounts capitalized represent 8% and 19% of total research and development costs including capitalized amounts for these periods. GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE General and administrative expenses increased 81.2% to $3 million in 1998 from $1.7 million in 1997. The increase was primarily due to a general increase in personnel costs associated with increased head count due to the acquisitions and significant offering costs. As a percentage of total revenue, general and administrative expenses increased to 13.6% in 1998 from 9.7% in the same period in 1997. PADS expects general and administrative expenses to continue to increase in absolute terms to support the growth in operations. IN-PROCESS RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CHARGE In connection with PADS' acquisition of HyperLynx in May 1997, PADS expensed $374,000 of in-process research and development costs associated with products in the development stage that had not reached technological feasibility. Similarly, in connection with the acquisition of ACT in August 1998, PADS expensed $2.4 million of in-process research and development costs. INTEREST EXPENSE Interest expense increased 17.1% to $226,000 in 1998 from $193,000 in 1997. This increase was due primarily to additional borrowings from two new bank loans in 1998 totaling $4.4 million. FOREIGN EXCHANGE GAIN (LOSS) AND OTHER Foreign exchange loss was $836,000 in 1998 as compared to a gain of $204,000 in 1997. The gains and losses were a result of the fluctuation of the Yen on notes payable that are denominated in Yen. Approximately $6.9 million of PADS' debt as of December 31, 1998 was denominated in Yen. Foreign exchange loss constituted 40% of the net loss in 1998 as compared to the foreign exchange gain equal to 17% of net income for 1997. INCOME TAXES PADS' effective tax rate for 1998 and 1997 was 6.7% and (19.2%), respectively, which differed from the combined federal and state statutory rate of approximately 40%, due primarily to the use of research and development tax credit carryforwards, and to the nondeductibility, for tax purposes, of the in-process research and development charge. NET INCOME (LOSS) As a result of the above factors, PADS had a net loss in 1998 of $2.1 million and net income of $1.2 million in 1997. Excluding the impact of the in-process research and development charges, net income would have been $1.6 million and $297,000 in 1997 and 1998, respectively. PURCHASE OF IN-PROCESS RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT PADS acquired HyperLynx in May 1997 and ACT in August 1998. These acquisitions were accounted for under purchase accounting, and, accordingly, PADS allocated the purchase prices to the fair values of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. The intangible assets acquired included in-process research and development, existing product technology, tradename and work forces. The fair value of the existing product technologies and the in-process research and development was determined using a risk adjusted discounted cash flow approach. Specifically, the acquired technologies were 80 evaluated through extensive interviews and analyses of data concerning the state of the technologies and required development work for the in-process development projects. In the evaluation of the underlying in-process technologies, PADS' considered the inherent difficulties and uncertainties in completing the development and thereby achieving technological feasibility and the risks related to the viability and potential changes to target markets. As a result of the evaluations of the technologies, the fair values of the in-process research and development acquired from ACT and HyperLynx were determined to be $2.4 million and $374,000, respectively. The efforts required to develop in-process research and development that was purchased from ACT into commercially viable products related principally to completing all planning, designing, prototyping, verifying and testing. These activities were necessary to establish that the technology could be produced as a commercially viable product meeting its design specifications, including functions, features and technical performance requirements. The value of the purchased in-process research and development was determined by estimating the projected net cash flows related to such products. These cash flows were discounted back to their net present value. The resulting projected net cash flows from these projects were based on management's estimates of revenue and operating profits related to such projects. ACT had three projects in various stages of development at the time of the acquisition. In determining the net cash flows, revenue attributable to in-process technology were assumed to start in the second year of the eight year revenue projection, to increase in the first five years and to decrease over the remaining years as other products are released. These projections were based on assumed penetration of the existing customer base and movement into new markets. The discount rate used to value the existing technology was 20%. This discount rate was estimated based on the completed status of the products utilizing existing technology, i.e., the lack of development risk, and the potential for obsolescence of current products in the market place. The discount rate used to value the in-process technology was 32.5%. This discount rate was estimated based on (i) the incomplete status of the products expected to utilize the in-process technology, i.e., development risk, (ii) the expected market risk of the planned products relative to the existing products, (iii) the emphasis on different markets than those currently pursued by ACT and (iv) the nature of the remaining development tasks relative to previous development efforts. At the date of the acquisition, ACT's projects were still being designed and no integration or testing had begun. The majority of the software still needed development or modification and there were many major components that needed to be completed and integrated before the products could reach technological feasibility. The nature of the in-process research and development was such that technological feasibility had not been attained. In determining the estimated fair value of the projects, PADS considered the stage of completion of each project based on the funds expended to date in relation to the estimated total funds to be expended at completion. The estimated fair value of $2.4 million was charged to expense in 1998. In 1999, PADS substantially completed the development of two of the projects in accordance with the development plan. PADS believes that the revenues to be derived from these projects will approximate the revenue projected at the date of acquisition. As to the third project, development work was continued in 1999; however, the project has not been completed and the project resources have been reprioritized. PADS has not made a final decision on the future prioritization of resources to complete the project. Similarly, it was determined that the fair value of the in-process research and development acquired from HyperLynx was $374,000. This value was based on discounting the estimated future cash flows from the project that was in development at the time of the acquisition. The cash flows for the in-process technologies were discounted at a rate of 30% and included revenues beginning in the 81 second year and continuing through the seventh. The in-process product were completed on time with no significant overruns and with the forecasted cash flows substantially meeting or exceeding expectations. As the nature of the in-process research and development was such that technological feasibility had not been attained as of the date of the acquisition, the estimated fair value of $374,000 was charged to expense in 1997. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Since formation, PADS has funded operations primarily from cash generated from operations, loans from or guaranteed by Kyoden, its principal stockholder, and from capital lease financing. Net cash provided by operating activities was $2.2 million, $3.1 million, $3.1 million for 1997, 1998, 1999, respectively, and $758,000 and $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 2000, respectively. The primary reason for the $2.5 million inflow of cash in the quarter ended March 31, 2000 was due to PADS' collections of fourth quarter 1999 revenue as well as collections of the first quarter 2000 revenue. Cash used in investing activities was $1.2 million, $6.0 million and $1.7 million for 1997, 1998, 1999, respectively, and $200,000 and $635,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 2000, respectively. The acquisitions of ACT and HyperLynx accounted for a substantial portion of cash used in investing activities 1997 and 1998. In other periods, acquisition of fixed assets and capitalized software costs accounted for a substantial portion of cash used in financing activities. Cash provided by (used in) financing activities was ($385,000), $2.7 million and ($520,000) for 1997, 1998, 1999, respectively, and ($106,000) and ($78,000) for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 2000, respectively. Proceeds from the issuance of $4.4 million in notes payable were offset by payments made to Kyoden in 1998. The payments to Kyoden were for notes due and for a payment in connection with the purchase of the Japanese version of PowerPCB and related distribution and intellectual property rights. These transactions accounted for a substantial portion of cash provided by financing activities in 1998. For March 31, 2000, payments made on notes payable due to Kyoden, which accounted for a substantial portion of cash used in financing activities, were offset by proceeds received from the sale and leaseback of assets under capital lease obligations. In connection with the acquisition of HyperLynx in May 1997, PADS agreed to pay royalties to the former owners of HyperLynx based on sales of certain HyperLynx products up to a maximum of $960,000. In 1998 and 1999, PADS incurred royalties of $417,000 and $335,000, respectively. PADS has completed the royalty payments on HyperLynx products as of March 31, 2000. In addition, as of March 31, 2000, PADS had repaid $654,000 of a $837,000 loan covering a portion of the HyperLynx purchase price. See Note 2 to PADS' Financial Statements. In 1999, PADS' availability under its lease line, with an equipment leasing company, increased from $500,000 to $600,000. As of March 31, 2000, the outstanding balance under this facility was $366,800. During 1998, PADS borrowed a combined $4.4 million from two different banks. The loan's maturity dates were extended in 1999 from March 2000 and June 2000, to March 2002 and June 2002, respectively. PADS currently does not have any material commitments for capital expenditures. PADS believes that existing cash balances, and cash generated from operations will be sufficient to meet cash requirements for the next twelve months. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK PADS is exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange risk primarily in debt and foreign currency transactions. The international operations function in local currencies which would be subject to the typical risks of international business. 82 The foreign currency to which PADS has exchange rate exposure is the Yen. PADS' debt also includes Yen denominated notes which cause currency rate fluctuations each period. Accordingly, PADS' future results could be materially and adversely impacted by changes in these or other factors. PADS' foreign exchange rate exposure also includes the translation exposure of its foreign subsidiary and operating branch. For consolidation, the results are translated into U.S. dollars which could be adversely impacted by foreign exchange rate fluctuations. The effect on PADS' profitability from foreign exchange rate fluctuations due to translation exposure was not material in 1999 or for the three months ended March 31, 2000. NEWLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended, in June 1999 and effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The new standard requires that all companies record derivatives on the balance sheet as assets or liabilities, measured at fair value. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the values of those derivatives would be accounted for depending on the use of the derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. PADS' management is currently assessing the impact of SFAS No. 133 on PADS' consolidated financial statements. PADS will adopt this accounting standard on January 1, 2001, as required. In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." The SAB summarizes certain of the SEC's views in applying revenue recognition in financial statements. The provisions of SAB No. 101 are effective in the fourth quarter of our fiscal year beginning January 2, 2000. We have not yet completed our evaluation of the effects of SAB No. 101. 83 UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Pursuant to the June 2, 2000 merger agreement between Innoveda and PADS, upon the closing of the transaction, PADS will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Innoveda. The transaction will be accounted for as a purchase, and accordingly, the purchase price will be allocated to the assets and liabilities of PADS based on their fair values. The purchase price as of April 1, 2000 has been estimated at $40,472,000, using a $4.625 common stock price, which includes the value of the 6,473,126 shares of Innoveda common stock to be exchanged for shares of PADS, the fair value of outstanding options to purchase PADS common stock, an estimated cash payment of $1,729,000 to be paid to PADS' stockholders, the PADS' debt as of April 1, 2000 of approximately $8,004,000 and Innoveda's estimated direct costs of the acquisition. The ultimate purchase price will be dependent upon the number of PADS shares and options outstanding upon closing, the amount of PADS' debt paid at the closing and the final transaction costs related to the merger. The unaudited pro forma financial information does not give effect to any cost savings and other synergies that may result from the merger. Innoveda is developing its plans for integration of the business but cannot make final decisions until the merger is complete. For purposes of the pro forma financial information, Innoveda has estimated that merger and integration costs, consisting primarily of severance costs, will be approximately $375,000. The purchase price will be allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the closing date. For purposes of the pro forma financial information, Innoveda has made a preliminary estimate of the fair values of identifiable assets and liabilities of PADS at the date of acquisition. An independent third party appraisal company has conducted a preliminary valuation of PADS' intangible assets. These intangibles include existing technology, in-process research and development, the customer base, trade names and the in-place workforce. The preliminary valuation of intangibles included $43,021,000 for existing technology, $3,053,000 for in-process research and development, $1,602,000 for the customer base, $1,486,000 for the trade names and $1,184,000 for the workforce. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable tangible and intangible net assets of $6,220,000 will be allocated to goodwill. Intangible assets are expected to be amortized over periods ranging from 3 to 7 years. The fair value of the in-process research and development, which relates to PADS' Power PCB Next Generation, BlazeDRE and ACT Manufacturing research projects, will be recorded as an expense in the period in which the merger is completed. The valuation of the existing technology and in-process research and development was determined using the income method. Revenue and expense projections as well as technology assumptions were prepared through 2009 based on information provided by PADS management. The projected cash flows were discounted using a 17% to 23% rate. The valuation of the in-process research and development was determined separately from all other acquired assets using the percentage of completion method. The percentage of completion ratio was calculated by dividing the total expenditures to date for each project by the total estimated expenditures. The value assigned to in-process technology relates primarily to three research projects, Power PCB Next Generation, BlazeDRE and ACT Manufacturing. These technologies have not yet reached technological feasibility and have no alternative future use. The nature of the efforts required to develop the in-process technologies into commercially viable products principally relate to the completion of all planning, designing, prototyping, verification and testing activities that are necessary to establish that the products can be designed to meet their design specifications, including function, features and technical performance requirements. Based on the timing of the closing of the transaction, the finalization of the integration plans and other factors, the pro forma adjustments may differ materially from those presented in the pro forma financial information. A final appraisal of the intangibles will be performed as of the closing date and 84 the allocation adjusted accordingly. The income statement effect of these adjustments will depend on the nature and amount of the assets or liabilities adjusted. The pro forma financial information does not purport to represent what the consolidated financial position or results of operations actually would have been if the merger in fact had occurred on April 1, 2000 or at the beginning of the periods presented or to project the consolidated financial position or results of operations as of any future date or any future period. It should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements of PADS and Innoveda, including the related notes, and other financial information included in this consent solicitation statement/prospectus. MERGER OF VIEWLOGIC AND SUMMIT On March 23, 2000, a merger occurred between Summit, Hood Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Summit, and Viewlogic. At the effective time of the merger, Hood merged with and into Viewlogic with Viewlogic surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Summit. In connection with the Viewlogic-Summit merger, the combined entity changed its name to Innoveda, Inc. Pursuant to the merger agreement, Summit issued 16,337,979 shares of its common stock to Viewlogic shareholders in exchange for all the outstanding common stock of Viewlogic (24,051,963 outstanding shares) at a .67928-to-1 exchange ratio. After the transaction, Viewlogic shareholders owned 50.6% of the outstanding shares of Innoveda common stock, and the former Summit shareholders owned the remaining 49.4% of the shares of Innoveda common stock. The Viewlogic-Summit merger was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and was treated as a reverse acquisition as the stockholders of Viewlogic received the larger portion of the voting interests in the combined company. Viewlogic was considered the acquirer for accounting purposes and recorded Summit's assets and liabilities based upon their estimated fair values. The operating results of Summit have been included in the accompanying Innoveda (Viewlogic) Historical results of operations from the date of acquisition. Under the purchase method of accounting, the acquired assets and assumed liabilities have been recorded at their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. On a preliminary basis, approximately $38.0 million has been allocated to goodwill and other intangibles. As a result of the Viewlogic-Summit merger, $2.4 million relating to in-process research and development has been expensed. The goodwill and other intangibles will be amortized over estimated useful lives of three to seven years. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended January 1, 2000 and three months ended April 1, 2000 include the effect of the Viewlogic-Summit merger as of the beginning of the periods presented, as the historical statement of operations for Innoveda do not include the operations of Summit prior to March 23, 2000. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of April 1, 2000 includes Summit, and accordingly, no further pro forma adjustments related to the Viewlogic-Summit merger are required. 85 UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED BALANCE SHEET AS OF APRIL 1, 2000 (IN THOUSANDS)

88 NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements give effect to Innoveda's acquisition of PADS through a merger and exchange of shares. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements of operations for the year ended January 1, 2000 and the three months ended April 1, 2000 reflect this transaction as if it had taken place at the beginning of the periods presented. The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet gives effect to this transaction as if it had taken place on April 1, 2000. Below is a table of the estimated acquisition costs and purchase price allocation (in thousands): Estimated acquisition cost: Common stock (6,473,136 shares)........................... $ 29,938 PADS debt to be at closing (as of April 1, 2000) 8,004 Cash...................................................... 1,729 Stock options............................................. 301 Acquisition costs......................................... 500 -------- Total estimated acquisition cost.......................... $ 40,472 ======== Purchase price allocation: Tangible net assets acquired.............................. $ 2,347 Deferred income taxes..................................... (18,208) Intangible net assets acquired: Purchased technology, assembled workforce, trade names, customer base................................ 47,293 Goodwill.............................................. 6,220 In-process research and development 3,053 Estimated merger related severance and shutdown costs, net of tax benefits......................................... (233) -------- Total..................................................... $ 40,472 ========
PADS options outstanding were valued using a Black-Scholes formula with the following assumptions: Life of options: 4 years, Interest Rate: 6.25% Volatility: Calculated for a 3-year period from 7/1/97 through 7/1/00, volatility was calculated at 90.8% Dividend Rate: 0%
This valuation was performed based on PADS options outstanding July 1, 2000. Tangible net assets of PADS acquired principally include cash, accounts receivable, fixed assets, deferred income taxes, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, deferred revenue and notes payable. To determine the value of purchased technology, the expected future cash flows attributable to all existing technology was discounted, taking into account risks related to the characteristics and applications of the technology, existing and future markets, and assessments of the life cycle stage of the technology. The valuation of purchased technology represents amounts which have reached technological feasibility and will therefore be capitalizable. The value of the assembled workforce was derived by estimating the costs to replace the existing employees, including recruiting, hiring, and training costs for each category 89 of employee. The value allocated to projects identified as in-process research and development of PADS will be charged to expense upon consummation of the merger but has not been reflected in the unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements of operations as it is nonrecurring in nature. However, this charge has been reflected in the unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet. The write-off was necessary, because the acquired in-process research and development had not yet reached technological feasibility and had no future alternative uses. The combined companies expect that the acquired in-process research and development will be successfully developed, but these products may not achieve commercial viability. The nature of the efforts required to develop the purchased in-process research and development into commercially viable products principally relate to the completion of all planning, designing, prototyping, verification and testing activities that are necessary to establish that the product can be produced to meet its design specifications, including functions, features and technical performance requirements. NOTE 2. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS FOR PADS' ACQUISITION (A) Allocation of the purchase price to be recorded as a result of the merger (see note 1) reflects: - the reduction in the cash balance of $1,729 for the cash payment to PADS' stockholders as required in the merger agreement. - the recording of intangible assets and goodwill as follows: Purchased technology........................................ $43,021 Customer base............................................... 1,602 Trade names................................................. 1,486 Workforce................................................... 1,184 Goodwill.................................................... 6,220
- the recording of deferred taxes which relate to the difference between the tax and book basis of assets acquired ($18.2 million). - deferred revenue after the effect of adjustment for estimated selling costs of 6%, or approximately $309, which represents the liability for the fair value of the remaining services yet to be provided by PADS under contractual terms. Management believes that deferred revenue approximates the cost that would be incurred by PADS if these services were provided by a third party. - the accrual of Innoveda's acquisition cost, estimated to be approximately $500 in direct transaction costs (primarily legal and accounting services) and approximately $233 of severance costs (net of tax benefits of $142). - the impact of purchase accounting: Issuance of Innoveda shares (6.5 million at $0.01 par value).................................................... $ 65 elimination of PADS' outstanding preferred stock............ (22) elimination of PADS' common stock........................... (5) elimination of PADS' accumulated deficit.................... 6,105 cancellation of PADS' treasury stock........................ 166
- the write off of in-process research and development of $3,053, as of April 1, 2000. - the elimination of PADS' purchased technology and other intangibles of ($4,267) and capitalized software of ($1,117). 90 (B) As part of the merger agreement, Innoveda is required to pay off existing PADS' notes payable and note payable to related parties ($8,004 at April 1, 2000). (C) To reflect the amortization of purchased technology, other intangible assets and goodwill have been recorded as a result of the merger. Amortization has been estimated based on the following estimated useful lives: Purchased technology........................................ 5 years Customer base............................................... 5 years Trade names................................................. 5 years Workforce................................................... 3 years Goodwill.................................................... 7 years
Amortization has been calculated on the straight-line method for all intangibles except purchased technology for which amortization has been calculated based on the greater of the ratio of revenue per period to total estimated revenue or the straight-line method. (D) To reflect income taxes on a pro forma basis, the transaction is assumed to have taken place at the beginning of the period presented. (E) As required by Article 11 of Regulation S-X, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations exclude material non recurring charges which result directly from the merger and which will be recorded within twelve months following the merger. The following schedule shows the effects of the write-off of the in-process research and development described in Note 1 above of $3,053:

NOTE 3. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS FOR SUMMIT ACQUISITION (S-A) To reflect the amortization of purchased technology, other intangible assets and goodwill have been recorded as a result of the Viewlogic-Summit merger. Amortization has been estimated based on the following estimated useful lives: Purchased technology........................................ 3 years Customer base............................................... 5 years Workforce................................................... 3 years Goodwill.................................................... 7 years
Amortization has been calculated on the straight-line method for all intangibles except purchased technology for which amortization has been calculated based on the greater of the ratio of revenue per period to total estimated revenue or the straight-line method. (S-B) To reflect income taxes on a pro forma basis, the transaction is assumed to have taken place at the beginning of the period presented. 91 PADS MANAGEMENT EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS The executive officers and directors of PADS who may serve as executive officers and directors of Innoveda after the merger, and their ages as of June 30, 2000 are as follows:

Unless otherwise indicated, each person or entity named in the table has sole voting power and investment power, or shares voting and/or investment power with his or her spouse, with respect to all shares of capital stock listed as owned by that person or entity. Unless otherwise noted, the address of each of the stockholders set forth below is c/o PADS Software, Inc., 165 Forest Street, Marlboro, Massachusetts, 01752. The number of shares beneficially owned by each stockholder is determined under rules promulgated by the SEC. The information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose.

However, there are differences in the charters and by-laws of the two corporations. CAPITALIZATION INNOVEDA. The authorized capital stock of the Innoveda consists of (a) 100,000,000 shares of common stock, of which 32,691,776 shares were issued and outstanding as of July 31, 2000, and (b) 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $.01 par value per share, of which no shares are issued or outstanding. PADS. The authorized capital stock of the PADS consists of (a) 20,000,000 shares of common stock, of which, as of June 2, 2000, 628,226 shares were issued and outstanding and 16,666 shares were held in treasury, and (b) 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock consisting of: (i) series A preferred stock, of which, as of June 2, 2000, 2,500,000 shares were issued and outstanding and (ii) series B preferred stock, of which, as of June 2, 2000, 269,182 shares were issued and outstanding. VOTING RIGHTS INNOVEDA. Each holder of Innoveda common stock is entitled to one vote for each share. PADS. Each holder of PADS series A preferred stock and PADS series B preferred stock is entitled to one vote for each share. Holders of shares of PADS common stock have no voting rights, other than those required by Delaware law. NUMBER AND CLASSIFICATION OF DIRECTORS INNOVEDA. Innoveda's by-laws provide that its board of directors will consist of five persons and the number of directors will be increased to six at the closing of the merger. Innoveda's charter further provides that its board of directors be classified into three classes, each elected for a three year term. The elections are staggered to provide for the election of a different class at each annual meeting of the Innoveda stockholders. PADS. PADS' by-laws provide that its board of directors shall consist of not less than one member and not more than five members. The number of directors shall be established within this range from time to time by resolution of the board of directors. No decrease in the number of directors shall have the effect of shortening the term of any incumbent director. At each annual meeting, the stockholders shall elect directors by a plurality of the votes cast by the shares entitled to vote in the election. Directors shall be elected to hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors shall have been elected and qualified, subject to prior death, resignation or removal. REMOVAL OF DIRECTORS INNOVEDA. Innoveda's by-laws provide that, for cause, the Innoveda stockholders may remove directors from office at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders by the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Innoveda entitled to vote in an election of directors. 95 PADS. PADS' by-laws provide that unless otherwise provided by its charter, the stockholders, at any meeting of the stockholders called expressly for that purpose, may remove any director from office, with or without cause. VACANCIES ON THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS INNOVEDA. Innoveda's by-laws provide that its board of directors may fill a vacancy on the board, including a vacancy resulting from an increase in the size of the board, by an affirmative vote of the majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director, except as may be required by law. A director so elected will hold office until the next election of such director's class and until a successor is elected and qualified. If the company should have no directors in office, as a result of death, resignation or other cause, then any officer or any stockholder may call a special meeting to elect new directors, or apply to the Court of Chancery for a decree summarily ordering an election as provided under Delaware General Corporation Law. PADS. PADS' by-laws provide that unless otherwise provided in the PADS' charter, any vacancy occurring in the board of directors, including a vacancy resulting from an increase in the number of directors, may be filled by the board of directors or if the remaining directors do not constitute a quorum, by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors. A director elected to fill a vacancy shall be elected for the unexpired term of the director's predecessor in office, subject to prior death, resignation or removal. CHARTER AMENDMENTS INNOVEDA. Innoveda's charter provides that the affirmative vote of at least two thirds of the shares of Innoveda capital stock outstanding and entitled to vote is required to amend, repeal or adopt a provision inconsistent with the following provisions of the charter: - stockholder action and special meetings of stockholders; - amend or repeal the by-laws; - number, election and terms of directors; and - indemnification of directors and officers. PADS. Amendments to PADS' charter are made pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law. AMENDMENTS TO BY-LAWS INNOVEDA. Innoveda's by-laws provide that the board of directors may amend the by-laws, and that the Innoveda stockholders may alter or repeal any by-law whether or not adopted by the board of directors. The by-laws do not specify the percentage of stockholders entitled to vote that must affirmatively vote for the amendment in order to adopt the amendment. PADS. PADS' by-laws provide that unless otherwise provided in the PADS' charter, the by-laws may be amended or repealed by the directors, subject to amendment or repeal by action of the stockholders, at any regular meeting or at any special meeting called for that purpose, provided notice of the proposed change is given in the notice of the meeting or notice thereof is waived in writing. ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT INNOVEDA. Innoveda's charter provides that any action required or permitted to be taken by Innoveda stockholders may only be taken at an annual or special meeting and may not be taken by written consent. 96 PADS. PADS' charter, as amended, provides that any action required or permitted to be taken by PADS stockholders entitled to vote may be taken at an annual or special meeting and may be taken by written consent in lieu of meetings. NOTICE OF STOCKHOLDER ACTIONS INNOVEDA. Innoveda's by-laws provide that in order to bring business before an annual meeting, stockholders must provide written notice to the secretary of Innoveda not less than 60 days nor more than 90 days prior to the meeting. However, if Innoveda gives less than 70 days notice of the date of the meeting to the stockholders, notice must be received by Innoveda not later than the 10th day following the day on which Innoveda provided such notice of the meeting. PADS. PADS' by-laws provide that PADS shall hold special meetings of stockholders at any time on demand in writing by stockholders of record holding shares with at least 10 percent of the votes entitled to be cast on any matter proposed to be considered at the special meeting. RIGHT TO CALL SPECIAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS INNOVEDA. Innoveda's by-laws restrict the persons who may call a special meeting of Innoveda stockholders to the board of directors, or any committee thereof designated for such a purpose, except in the rarest of circumstances where, by reason of death, resignation or some other cause, Innoveda has no board of directors. In such a case, any stockholder may call a meeting or apply to the Court of Chancery for a decree summarily ordering a stockholder election as provided in Section 211 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. PADS. PADS' by-laws provide that PADS shall hold special meetings of stockholders at any time on call of the president or the board of directors, or on demand in writing by stockholders of record holding shares with at least 10 percent of the votes entitled to be cast on any matter proposed to be considered at the special meeting. LIMITATION OF PERSONAL LIABILITY OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS The Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a corporation's charter may include a provision limiting the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damage for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. However, no such provision can eliminate or limit the liability of a director for: - any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders; - acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law; - willful or negligent violation of the laws governing the payment of dividends or the purchase or redemption of stock; or - any transaction from which the director devised an improper personal benefit. INNOVEDA. Innoveda's charter insulates its directors from personal liability to Innoveda, or to its stockholders, for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent such liability may not be eliminated or limited under the Delaware General Corporation Law. Innoveda's by-laws provide that the corporation will indemnify its directors and officers against any judgment, fine or settlement or other amount incurred or imposed in connection with any proceeding arising from the director's position as an agent of the corporation, to the maximum extent permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law. 97 PADS. PADS' charter, as amended, sets forth that no director of the corporation shall be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for conduct as a director, except that this provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director for any act or omission occurring prior to the date of adoption of the charter. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS INNOVEDA. Innoveda's charter provides that its board of directors, at its discretion but pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law, may declare and pay dividends to the holders of Innoveda common stock, out of funds legally available for dividends. PADS. PADS' charter provides that until the closing of an initial public offering (i) no cash dividends shall be declared or paid on the common stock, all rights to cash dividends being vested exclusively in the holders of preferred stock, and (ii) dividends payable solely in shares of common stock may be declared and paid on the common stock. From and after the closing of an initial public offering, cash or other dividends may be declared and paid on the common stock from funds lawfully available therefor as and when determined by the board of directors and subject to any preferential dividend rights of any then outstanding preferred stock. The holders of shares of series B preferred stock are entitled to receive dividends of $.58333 per share per annum (subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or other similar recapitalization affecting such shares), payable only when, as and if declared by the board of directors. The right to receive dividends on series B preferred stock are non-cumulative, and no right to dividends shall accrue by reason of the fact that no dividend have been declared on the series B preferred stock in any prior year. PADS cannot declare or pay any dividends or other distributions on shares of common stock until the holders of the series B preferred stock then outstanding shall have first received a dividend at the rate specified above. REDEMPTION INNOVEDA. Innoveda common stock is not subject to redemption. PADS. PADS' amended charter provides that subject to any provision to the contrary contained in amendments to the charter either by action of the stockholders or by the board of directors, the corporation may repurchase its shares of common stock or preferred stock even though the distribution made in connection with such repurchase would cause the difference between the corporation's total assets and its total liabilities to be less than the amount that would be needed to satisfy the preferential liquidation rights of all outstanding shares of classes or series of stock with liquidation rights which are superior to those of the shares being repurchased if the corporation were to be dissolved at the time of such repurchase. LIQUIDATION INNOVEDA. As provided under Section 280 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, holders of Innoveda capital stock are entitled to liquidation distributions in the event of any liquidation or dissolution of the company, subject to claims of higher priority. PADS. PADS' amended charter provides that upon the dissolution or liquidation of the PADS, whether voluntary or involuntary, holders of common stock will be entitled to receive all assets of the PADS available for distribution to its stockholders, subject to any preferential rights of any then outstanding preferred stock. 98 In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the PADS, the holders of preferred stock shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the PADS available for distribution to its stockholders, an amount equal to the greater of: - $5.00 per share plus any dividends declared or accrued but unpaid thereon, for shares of series A preferred stock; - $11.66667 per share plus any dividends declared or accrued but unpaid thereon for shares of series B preferred stock, or - such amount per share as would have been payable had each such share been converted into common stock immediately prior to such liquidation, dissolution or winding up. If upon any such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of PADS the remaining assets of PADS available for distribution to its stockholders shall be insufficient to pay the holders of series A preferred stock the full amount to which they shall be entitled, the holders of shares of series A preferred stock shall share ratably in any distribution of the remaining assets and funds of PADS in proportion to the respective amounts which would otherwise be payable in respect of the shares held by them upon such distribution if all amounts payable on or with respect to such shares were paid in full. In the event of a merger or acquisition in which the current stockholders of PADS do not own at least 80% of the voting power of the surviving entity or the sale of substantially all of the assets of PADS, if the holders of 67% of the then outstanding shares of either series of preferred stock elect to treat the merger, acquisition or sale as a liquidation event at least three days before the effective date of the merger, then each holder of such series shall be entitled to receive the consideration they would be entitled to receive upon a liquidation. PADS is required to promptly provide notice of any proposed merger to the holders of each series of preferred stock. In the event that the holders of either series of preferred stock elect to treat the merger, acquisition or sale as a liquidation event then PADS shall use its best efforts to amend the merger agreement to adjust the rate of conversion at which the shares of PADS' capital stock are exchanged for cash, new securities or other property to give effect to such election. PADS has provided the holders of the outstanding shares of preferred stock notice of this merger. All of the holders of preferred stock have waived their right to elect to treat the merger as a liquidation event. 99 LEGAL MATTERS The validity of the shares of Innoveda common stock to be issued in connection with the merger will be passed upon for Innoveda by Hale and Dorr LLP. An investment partnership comprised of partners and senior executives of Hale and Dorr LLP owns 13,585 shares of Innoveda common stock. Gadsby Hannah LLP will pass on certain legal matters for PADS.

F-1 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of PADS Software, Inc.: We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of PADS Software, Inc. (a majority owned subsidiary of Kyoden Co., Ltd.) and subsidiary (the "Company") as of December 31, 1998 and 1999, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' deficiency, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of PADS Software, Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31, 1998 and 1999, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

See notes to consolidated financial statements. F-6 PADS SOFTWARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (INFORMATION FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 AND 2000 IS UNAUDITED) (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA) 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES NATURE OF BUSINESS--PADS Software, Inc. ("PADS"), a majority-owned subsidiary of Kyoden Co., Ltd. ("Kyoden"), develops, markets and supports a comprehensive family of software tools that aid engineers in the design of advanced electronic products to various customers throughout the world. The Company derives the majority of its revenue from the sale and support of software used to design, analyze and manufacture printed circuit boards. The Company's subsidiary, PADS Asia, had revenues from the resale of manufactured interconnect products including printed circuit boards. This activity was discontinued on January 1, 1998. The Company sells its products worldwide with North America, Europe and Asia being the largest markets. Kyoden owns all outstanding shares of PADS' Convertible Series A Preferred Stock and has a 74% voting interest. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION--The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PADS and its subsidiary PADS Asia (collectively, the "Company"). All intercompany accounts, transactions and profits are eliminated in consolidation. The minority interest in PADS Asia is segregated in the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of operations. USE OF ESTIMATES--The preparation of the consolidated 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 balance sheet date and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION--The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2000, the consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 2000, and the consolidated statement of stockholders' deficiency for the three months ended March 31, 2000 are unaudited but include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation. The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. REVENUE RECOGNITION--Effective January 1, 1998, the Company has adopted the provisions of the Accounting Standards Executive Committee Statement of Position ("SOP") No. 97-2, "Software Revenue Recognition." Effective January 1, 2000, the Company adopted SOP 98-9, "Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition with Respect to Certain Transactions." The adoption of SOP Nos. 97-2 and 98-9 had no effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Prior to 1998, revenue was recognized in accordance with SOP 91-1, "Software Revenue Recognition." Revenue is recognized as follows: SOFTWARE--Revenue from the sale of software licenses and electronic products is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection of the receivable is probable. When arrangements contain multiple elements and vendor-specific objective evidence exists for all undelivered elements, revenue is allocated to the delivered elements using the residual method as prescribed by SOP 98-9. Vendor-specific objective evidence is based on the renewal rate, if applicable, or the prices charged when the same element is sold separately or, if an element has not yet been sold separately, the price established by management having the relevant authority. F-7 PADS SOFTWARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (INFORMATION FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 AND 2000 IS UNAUDITED) (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA) 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) SERVICE AND OTHER--Service and other revenue consists primarily of maintenance revenue which is deferred and recognized ratably over the maintenance period, generally twelve months. CASH EQUIVALENTS--Cash equivalents consist of money market accounts. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT--Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the assets' estimated useful lives. The useful lives are three years for equipment and software and seven years for furniture and fixtures, or the lease term if shorter. Equipment under capital leases aggregated $659, $520 and $702 at December 31, 1998 and 1999 and March 31, 2000, respectively, and accumulated amortization was $425 and $334 and $294 at December 31, 1998 and 1999 and March 31, 2000, respectively. RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT AND CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE COSTS--Research and development costs for internally developed products intended for sale to third parties are expensed when incurred until technological feasibility has been established for the product. Thereafter, all software development costs specific to the product are capitalized until the product is available for general release to customers. Costs associated with software developed for internal use are capitalized once application and development activities commence through the completion of the project. Capitalized costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of three years. The Company capitalized $672, $412, and $486 in software development costs for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999, respectively. Accumulated amortization of the capitalized software was $459, $959 and $1,413 as of December 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999, respectively. The Company capitalized no costs and $321 and had accumulated amortization of $1,084 and $1,526 for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 2000, respectively. ACQUIRED INTANGIBLE ASSETS--Acquired intangible assets are being amortized using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from 5 to 10 years. Accumulated amortization was $213, $679 and $837 as of December 31, 1998 and 1999, and March 31, 2000, respectively. PURCHASED TECHNOLOGY--Purchased technology is being amortized using the straight-line method over its estimated useful life, ranging from 18 months to 3 years. Accumulated amortization was $778, $2,195 and $2,224 as of December 31, 1998 and 1999, and March 31, 2000, respectively. LONG-LIVED ASSETS--The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets not held for sale by comparing the carrying amount of the assets to the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by those assets. If the sum of the undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value of the assets, an evaluation of the fair value of the assets is undertaken. If such fair value is less than the recorded amount of the assets, an impairment is recognized. There have been no impairments recognized. FOREIGN CURRENCY--Certain notes payable to Kyoden and certain banks (see Notes 4 and 5) and the related interest are denominated in yen and are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at the balance sheet date. The Company recognized a gain (loss) of $187, ($987) and ($757) on the translation for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999, respectively. The Company recognized a gain of $313 and $55 for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 2000, respectively. F-8 PADS SOFTWARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (INFORMATION FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 AND 2000 IS UNAUDITED) (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA) 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) The functional currencies for the Company's foreign operations are the respective local currencies. Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at the balance sheet date. Income and expenses are translated using average exchange rates for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are excluded from net income and accumulated as a separate component of other comprehensive income. INCOME TAXES--Deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of existing assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates expected to be in effect in the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS--Financial instruments held or used by the Company consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts and notes payable and related-party debt obligations. The carrying amounts of the cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of their short-term nature. The Company's notes payable are either due to or guaranteed by Kyoden (Note 5) or with former owners of an acquired company (Note 4). As such, it is not practicable to measure fair value of these instruments due to their related-party nature. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK--The Company sells its products primarily to designers and manufacturers of printed circuit boards. A significant portion of the Company's sales are through value-added resellers ("VARs"). The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for potential credit losses. The Company generally requires no collateral from its customers. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION--The Company applies Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for stock option grants to employees and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," in accounting for stock option grants to nonemployees. EARNINGS PER SHARE--Earnings per share are presented in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," which requires the presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS--In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended, which is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2001. The new standard requires that all companies record derivatives on the balance sheet as assets or liabilities, measured at fair value. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the values of those derivatives would be accounted for depending on the use of the derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. Management is currently assessing the impact of SFAS No. 133 on the consolidated financial statements of the Company. The Company will adopt this accounting standard in calendar year 2001, as required. In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." The SAB summarizes certain of the SEC's views in applying revenue recognition in financial statements. The provisions of SAB No. 101 are effective in the fourth quarter of our fiscal year beginning January 2, 2000. We have not yet completed our evaluation of the effects of SAB No. 101.

2. ACQUISITIONS ADVANCED CAM TECHNOLOGIES, INC.--Effective August 1, 1998, the Company acquired Advanced CAM Technologies ("ACT"), a San Jose, California-based developer of computer-aided manufacturing software for the printed circuit board industry. The acquisition cost of $8,176 consisted of $4,500 in cash, 269,182 shares of PADS Series B Preferred Stock ($3,050), options to purchase 30,800 shares of PADS common stock ($349) and $277 of acquisition costs. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase, and accordingly, the results of ACT's operations from August 1, 1998 have been included in the Company's consolidated financial statements. The purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values, including existing technology of $1,600, in-process technology of $2,400 and workforce of $500. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired has been recorded as goodwill ($3,491) and is included in acquired intangible assets. HYPERLYNX INC.--In January 1996, PADS signed a technology and distribution agreement with HyperLynx Inc. ("HyperLynx") which included an option to acquire the business and certain assets. In 1997, the Company exercised its option to acquire the business and certain assets for cash payments of $201, $54 of which was advanced to HyperLynx in the prior year, with noninterest-bearing notes payable of $837. The total purchase price, after discount of the notes payable of $48, based on an effective interest rate of approximately 9.0%, was $990. The purchase agreement specified that the F-10 PADS SOFTWARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (INFORMATION FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 AND 2000 IS UNAUDITED) (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA) 2. ACQUISITIONS (CONTINUED) Company may also be required to make royalty payments based on sales of certain HyperLynx products up to a maximum of $960. HyperLynx developed, marketed and supported signal integrity and electromagnetic-compliance analysis software. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase, and accordingly, the results of HyperLynx from the date of the acquisition forward have been recorded in the Company's consolidated financial statements. The purchase price was allocated as follows: $46 to property and equipment, $3 to inventory, $461 to existing technology, $106 to other intangible assets and $374 to in-process technology. The fair value of intangible assets in both the ACT and HyperLynx acquisitions was determined using a risk-adjusted discounted cash flow approach using the stage-of-completion approach. Specifically, the technology acquired was evaluated through extensive interviews and analysis of data concerning the state of the technology and needed developments. The evaluation of the underlying technology acquired considered the inherent difficulties and uncertainties in completing the development, and thereby achieving technological feasibility. At the date of the respective acquisitions, technological feasibility of the in-process technology had not been established and it had no alternative future use, and therefore the Company expensed $374 and $2,400 in 1997 and 1998, respectively. The following represents the unaudited pro forma results of operations as if the ACT and Hyperlynx acquisitions had occurred as of January 1, 1997. The pro forma results do not purport to be indicative of the results that actually would have been obtained if the operations were combined during the periods presented or of results which may occur in the future.

STOCKHOLDERS' DEFICIENCY CONVERTIBLE SERIES A AND B PREFERRED STOCK CONVERSION--Each preferred share is convertible into one share of the Company's common stock at any time at the option of the holder. The preferred stock will be automatically converted into shares of common stock upon the closing of an initial public offering of the Company's stock that results in gross proceeds to the Company of at least $7,500 and is at a price per share of at least equal to a specified minimum ($8 in the case of Series A and $10 in the case of Series B). The Company has 2,800,000 shares of common stock reserved for issuance upon conversion of the outstanding preferred stock. DIVIDENDS--Holders of the preferred stock are entitled to receive dividends of $.20 per share (Series A) and $.58 per share (Series B) when and if declared by the Board of Directors. Dividends are noncumulative, and the Company is prohibited, in any year, from paying or declaring dividends to common stockholders prior to paying the preferred stockholders. LIQUIDATION PREFERENCE--Upon liquidation, the holders of the convertible preferred stock are entitled to receive the greater of their liquidation preference ($4 per share for Series A and $11.67 per share for Series B) or such amount per share as would have been received had each share been converted into common stock immediately prior to liquidation. If assets available for distribution are insufficient to pay the full amount to the holders of the convertible preferred stock, the remaining assets will be distributed ratably to the Series A and B holders. VOTING AND OTHER RIGHTS--The holders of the preferred stock are entitled to vote, together with holders of the common stock, on all matters. Each share of preferred stock is entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of common stock into which the preferred stock is then convertible. The holders of the preferred stock have antidilutive rights in any stock dividends and distributions. RESTRICTED STOCK PLAN--The Company has a restricted stock plan (the "Plan") that provides for the sale of up to 625,000 shares of common stock ("Restricted Stock") to certain officers and employees of the Company and to nonemployees under individual agreements. In general, the shares sold to officers and employees vest in accordance with a two- to four-year vesting schedule. The Company has the right to repurchase unvested shares at the original price paid by the holder upon an employee's termination. Notes receivable represent interest-bearing notes from employees for shares issued under the Plan. The notes are due over the vesting period. At December 31, 1998, 1999, and March 31, 2000, 616,666, 633,106, and 635,393 shares, respectively, had been issued under the Plan, and 65,132, 19,750 and 19,125 of the shares issued were unvested at December 31, 1998 and 1999 and March 31, 2000, respectively. STOCK OPTION PLAN--On January 26, 1998, the stockholders adopted the 1998 Stock Option Plan (the "Plan").

The Company uses the intrinsic-value method to measure compensation expense associated with grants of stock options to employees. Had the compensation cost for the Plan been determined based on the fair value method at the grant date for awards, consistent with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," the Company's net loss would have been ($2,142) and F-15 PADS SOFTWARE, INC.

STOCKHOLDERS' DEFICIENCY (CONTINUED) ($408) and basic and diluted net loss per share would have been ($3.47) and ($0.67) for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1999, respectively. The fair value per share of each option grant is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with an assumed risk-free interest rate of 5.10% (1998) and 6.24% (1999), and an expected life of five years and assumes no dividends will be paid. The weighted-average fair value at grant date was $8.81 and $8.33 per share for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1999, respectively. 7. LEASE COMMITMENTS The Company leases various equipment under capital leases that require payments over terms of one and four years. The Company has a 16-year lease on an operating facility.

Product sales to Kyoden were the result of Kyoden distributing PADS products in the Japanese market. On April 1, 1998, the Company acquired from Kyoden the distribution rights for the Japanese market and rights associated with the Japanese versions of its products for $693. This transaction has been recorded as a return of capital to Kyoden. Subsequent to April 1, 1998, sales in Japan have been made through a branch office of PADS to a main distributor. During 1999, the distributor was acquired by Kyoden, and accordingly, these sales have been included as related party.

The Company has available, as of December 31, 1999, carryforwards of approximately $585 (federal) and $286 (state) in research and development tax credits. These credits expire commencing in 2007 for both federal and state purposes. Additionally, the Company has $11 of federal alternative minimum tax credits available that do not expire. A valuation allowance has been provided to reduce the deferred tax asset to an amount management believes is more likely than not to be realized. In 1998 and 1999, the valuation allowance was increased (decreased) by $249 and ($57), respectively, due to changes resulting from the creation and utilization in carryforwards of research and development tax and alternative minimum credits whose use is considered by management not to be more likely than not. 10. RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN The Company has a 401(k) retirement savings plan covering substantially all employees. The Company's matching contribution to the plan is equal to 50% of the participant's contribution (up to 6% of the participant's salary).

SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company has one reportable segment: electronic design automation ("EDA") software for designing, verifying and manufacturing complex electronic interconnect systems. Sales outside North America are primarily to Europe and Asia and accounted for approximately 33%, 25% and 25% of revenue for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999, respectively, and 25% and 23% for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 2000, respectively.

All other assets have domestic domiciles. 12. EARNINGS PER SHARE ("EPS") Basic EPS is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is computed giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the conversion of convertible preferred stock (using the "if converted" method) and upon exercise of stock options. A reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of basic and diluted EPS is provided as follows:

EARNINGS PER SHARE ("EPS") (CONTINUED) The convertible preferred stock and stock options have been excluded from the computation of the December 31, 1998 and 1999 and March 30, 1999 diluted net income per share because of their antidilutive effect. 13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On April 7, 2000, an action was filed against PADS in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California by Protel International and its wholly owned subsidiary, Accel Technologies, alleging violation of the Lanham Act and various claims arising under California law, including unfair competition, defamation and false advertising. At this early state in the litigation, it is difficult to express an opinion as to its likely outcome. On June 2, 2000, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the "Merger Agreement") with Innoveda, Inc. ("Innoveda"). Innoveda is a publicly held company engaged in business similar to that of the Company. In connection with the merger, Innoveda intends to issue 6,473,136 shares of its common stock and expects to pay approximately $1,700 in cash to the Company's stockholders at the effective date of the merger. The number of shares of Innoveda and the cash consideration that the Company's stockholders will receive will be determined at the effective time of the merger as defined in the Merger Agreement. Based upon the outstanding Company capital stock as of August 1, 2000, it is expected that each share of Company capital stock will be exchanged for approximately 1.9 shares of Innoveda common stock and $.51 in cash (in whole dollars). In addition, each outstanding option to purchase shares of the Company's common stock will be converted into an option to purchase 2.0355 shares of Innoveda common stock, with the option exercise price to be adjusted accordingly.

Annex A--Voting and Transfer Restriction Agreement Annex B--Inventions and Nondisclosure Agreement A-iv AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER AND REORGANIZATION This Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (this "AGREEMENT") is entered into as of June 2, 2000 among Innoveda, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "BUYER"), Innovative Software, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Buyer (the "TRANSITORY SUBSIDIARY"), PADS Software, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "COMPANY") and, solely for the purpose of agreeing to and becoming bound by Sections 1.3(g) and 4.3(f) and Articles VI and VIII of this Agreement, Kyoden Company, Ltd., a Japanese corporation (the "PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDER"). The Buyer, the Transitory Subsidiary, the Company and the Principal Stockholder are sometimes referred to herein each as a "PARTY" and collectively as the "PARTIES". This Agreement contemplates a merger of the Transitory Subsidiary into the Company. In such merger, the stockholders of the Company will receive common stock of the Buyer and cash in exchange for their capital stock of the Company. For federal income tax purposes, it is intended that the Merger (as defined in Section 1.1 of this Agreement) shall qualify as a reorganization under the provisions of Section 368(a) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "CODE"). Now, therefore, in consideration of the representations, warranties and covenants herein contained, the Parties agree as follows. ARTICLE I THE MERGER 1.1 THE MERGER. Upon and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Transitory Subsidiary shall merge with and into the Company (with such merger referred to in this Agreement as the "MERGER") at the Effective Time (as defined in this Section 1.1). From and after the Effective Time, the separate corporate existence of the Transitory Subsidiary shall cease and the Company shall continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the "SURVIVING CORPORATION"). The "EFFECTIVE TIME" shall be the time at which the Surviving Corporation files a certificate of merger or other appropriate documents prepared and executed in accordance with Section 251(c) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "Certificate of Merger") with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in Section 259 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. 1.2 THE CLOSING. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the "CLOSING") shall take place at the offices of Hale and Dorr LLP in Boston, Massachusetts, commencing at 9:00 a.m. local time on a date to be specified by the Buyer and the Company which shall be no later than the second business day after satisfaction or waiver of all conditions set forth in Article V of this Agreement, unless another date or place is agreed to in writing by the Buyer and the Company. 1.3 ACTIONS AT THE CLOSING. At the Closing: (a) the Company shall deliver to the Buyer and the Transitory Subsidiary the various certificates, instruments and documents referred to in Section 5.2; (b) the Buyer and the Transitory Subsidiary shall deliver to the Company the various certificates, instruments and documents referred to in Section 5.3; (c) the Surviving Corporation shall file with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware the Certificate of Merger; (d) each of the stockholders of record of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time (the "COMPANY STOCKHOLDERS") shall deliver to the Buyer the certificate(s) representing his, her or its Company Shares (as defined in Section 1.5(c) of this Agreement); and (e) the Buyer shall deliver certificates for Merger Shares (as defined in Section 1.5(d) of this Agreement) and shall pay the Cash Consideration (as defined in Section 1.5(a)(ii) of this Agreement) to each Company Stockholder in accordance with Section 1.5 of this Agreement. 1.4 ADDITIONAL ACTION. The Surviving Corporation may, at any time after the Effective Time, take any action, including executing and delivering any document, in the name and on behalf of either the Company or the Transitory Subsidiary, in order to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 1.5 CONVERSION OF SHARES. (a) In consideration of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and as further set forth in this Agreement, the Buyer has agreed, in exchange for all of the outstanding Company Shares (as defined in Section 1.5(c) of this Agreement), immediately prior to the Effective Time: (i) to issue an aggregate of up to 6,473,136 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Buyer (the "BUYER COMMON STOCK"); and (ii) to pay a cash amount (the "CASH CONSIDERATION") equal to the product of (y) the total number of outstanding Company Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (z) the Per Share Cash Consideration (as defined in Section 1.5(c) of this Agreement). (b) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any Party or the holder of any of the following securities, each share of common stock, $0.008 par value per share, of the Company ("COMMON SHARES") issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Common Shares owned beneficially by the Buyer or the Transitory Subsidiary, Dissenting Shares (as defined in Section 1.6(a) of this Agreement) and Common Shares held in the Company's treasury) shall be converted into and represent the right to receive (i) such number of shares of Buyer Common Stock as is equal to the Conversion Ratio (as defined in Section 1.5(d) of this Agreement) and (ii) the Per Share Cash Consideration in accordance with Section 1.5(e) of this Agreement. (c) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any Party or the holder of any of the following securities, each share of Preferred Stock, $0.008 par value per share, of the Company ("PREFERRED SHARES"; and, together with the Common Shares, the "COMPANY SHARES") issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Preferred Shares owned beneficially by the Buyer or the Transitory Subsidiary, Dissenting Shares and Preferred Shares held in the Company's treasury) shall be converted into and represent the right to receive (i) such number of shares of Buyer Common Stock as is equal to the Conversion Ratio (as defined in Section 1.5(d) of this Agreement) and (ii) the Per Share Cash Consideration in accordance with Section 1.5(e) of this Agreement. (d) The "CONVERSION RATIO" shall be equal to the quotient of 6,473,136 divided by the total number of outstanding Company Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time. The Conversion Ratio shall be subject to equitable adjustment in the event of any stock split, stock dividend, reverse stock split or similar event affecting the Buyer Common Stock between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time. Stockholders of record of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be entitled to receive immediately 100% of the shares of Buyer Common Stock into which their Company Shares were converted pursuant to this Section 1.5. The shares of Buyer Common Stock into which the Company Shares are converted are referred to herein as the "MERGER SHARES." (e) As used in this Agreement the "PER SHARE CASH CONSIDERATION" shall mean the quotient of (i) the difference of (y) $2,685,715 minus (z) the product of (I) the total number of outstanding Options immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (II) the Option Conversion Ratio (as defined in Section 1.7(a) of this Agreement) multiplied by (III) $4.25 divided by (ii) the total number of outstanding Company Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time. For example, if the outstanding Company Shares and the outstanding Options immediately prior to the Effective Time were 3,397,408 and 110,583, respectively, the Per Share Consideration would be calculated as follows: [$2,685,715 - (110,583 X 2.0355 X 4.25)] DIVIDED BY 3,397,408 = 0.509 per share. A-2 (f) Each Company Share held in the Company's treasury immediately prior to the Effective Time and each Company Share owned beneficially by the Buyer or the Transitory Subsidiary shall be cancelled and retired without payment of any consideration therefor. (g) Each share of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Transitory Subsidiary issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and thereafter evidence one share of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Surviving Corporation. 1.6 DISSENTING SHARES. (a) For purposes of this Agreement, "DISSENTING SHARES" means Company Shares held as of the Effective Time by a Company Stockholder who has not voted such Company Shares in favor of the adoption of this Agreement and the Merger and with respect to which appraisal shall have been duly demanded and perfected in accordance with Section 262 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and not effectively withdrawn or forfeited prior to the Effective Time. Dissenting Shares shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive Merger Shares and Cash Consideration, unless such Company Stockholder shall have forfeited his, her or its right to appraisal under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or properly withdrawn, his, her or its demand for appraisal. If such Company Stockholder has so forfeited or withdrawn his, her or its right to appraisal of Dissenting Shares, then (i) as of the occurrence of such event, such holder's Dissenting Shares shall cease to be Dissenting Shares and shall be converted into and represent the right to receive the Merger Shares issuable and the Cash Consideration payable in respect of such Company Shares pursuant to Section 1.5 of this Agreement, and (ii) promptly following the occurrence of such event, the Buyer shall deliver to such Company Stockholder a certificate representing the Merger Shares to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 1.5 of this Agreement (which shares shall be considered Merger Shares for all purposes of this Agreement) and shall pay the Cash Consideration to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 1.5 of this Agreement. (b) The Company shall give the Buyer (i) prompt notice of any written demands for appraisal of any Company Shares, withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments that relate to such demands received by the Company and (ii) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of the Buyer, make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal of Company Shares or offer to settle or settle any such demands. 1.7 OPTIONS AND WARRANTS. (a) As of the Effective Time, all options to purchase Common Shares issued by the Company pursuant to its stock option plans or otherwise ("OPTIONS"), whether vested or unvested, shall be assumed by the Buyer. Immediately after the Effective Time, each Option outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be deemed to constitute an option to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such Option at the Effective Time, such number of shares of Buyer Common Stock as is equal to the number of Common Shares subject to the unexercised portion of such Option multiplied by the Option Conversion Ratio (with any fraction resulting from such multiplication to be rounded down to the nearest whole number). The exercise price per share of each such assumed Option shall be equal to the exercise price of such Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, divided by the Option Conversion Ratio (rounded up to the nearest whole cent). The term, exercisability, vesting schedule, status as an "incentive stock option" under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "CODE"), if applicable, and all of the other terms of the Options shall otherwise remain unchanged. As used in this Agreement, "OPTION CONVERSION RATIO" shall be equal to 2.0355. (b) As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, the Buyer or the Surviving Corporation shall deliver to the holders of Options appropriate notices setting forth such holders' rights pursuant to such A-3 Options, as amended by this Section 1.7, and the agreements evidencing such Options shall continue in effect on the same terms and conditions (subject to the amendments provided for in this Section 1.7 and such notice). (c) The Buyer shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for issuance a sufficient number of shares of Buyer Common Stock for delivery upon exercise of the Options assumed in accordance with this Section 1.7. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, the Buyer shall file a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (or any successor form) under the Securities Act of 1933, (as amended (the "SECURITIES ACT"), with respect to all shares of Buyer Common Stock subject to such Options that may be registered on a Form S-8, and shall use its best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such Registration Statement for so long as such Options remain outstanding. (d) The Company shall cause the termination, as of the Effective Time, of all outstanding warrants to purchase Company Shares (the "WARRANTS") which remain unexercised. (e) The Company shall obtain, prior to the Closing, the consent from each holder of an Option or a Warrant to the amendment (in the case of Options) or termination (in the case of Warrants) of such Option or Warrant pursuant to this Section 1.7 (unless such consent is not required under the terms of the applicable agreement, instrument or plan). 1.8 [Intentionally Omitted.] 1.9 CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BY-LAWS. (a) The Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation immediately following the Effective Time shall be the same as the Certificate of Incorporation of the Transitory Subsidiary immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that (i) the name of the corporation set forth therein shall be changed to the name of the Company and (ii) the identity of the incorporation shall be deleted. (b) The By-laws of the Surviving Corporation immediately following the Effective Time shall be the same as the By-laws of the Transitory Subsidiary immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that the name of the corporation set forth therein shall be changed to the name of the Company. 1.10 NO FURTHER RIGHTS. From and after the Effective Time, no Company Shares shall be deemed to be outstanding, and holders of certificates that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented Company Shares converted into Merger Shares pursuant to Section 1.5 of this Agreement (including any Company Shares referred to in the last sentence of Section 1.6(a) of this Agreement) ("CERTIFICATES") shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except as provided herein or by law. 1.11 CLOSING OF TRANSFER BOOKS. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and no transfer of Company Shares shall thereafter be made. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Buyer or the Surviving Corporation, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for Merger Shares in accordance with Section 1.5 of this Agreement and to applicable law in the case of Dissenting Shares. 1.12 FRACTIONAL SHARES. No certificates or scrip representing fractional Merger Shares, including Initial Shares, shall be issued to former Company Stockholders upon the surrender for exchange of certificates that, immediately prior to the Effective time, represented Company Shares converted into Merger Shares pursuant to this Section 1.5 (including any Company Shares referred to in the last sentence of Section 1.6(a) of this Agreement) ("CERTIFICATES"), and such former Company Stockholders shall not be entitled to any voting rights, rights to receive any dividends or distributions or other rights as a stockholder of the Buyer with respect to any fractional Merger Shares that would have otherwise been issued to such former Company Stockholders. In lieu of any fractional Merger Shares that would have otherwise been issued, each former Company Stockholder that would have been entitled to receive a fractional Merger Share shall, upon proper surrender of such person's Certificates, receive such whole number of Merger Shares as is equal to the precise number of Merger Shares to which such person would be entitled, rounded up or down to the nearest whole number (with a fractional interest equal to .5 rounded to the nearest odd number); provided that each such holder shall receive at least one Merger Share.

No Subsidiary is in default under or in violation of any provision of its charter, by-laws or other organizational documents. All of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of each Subsidiary are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable and free of preemptive rights.

Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is or has ever been a member of a group of corporations with which it has filed (or been required to file) consolidated, combined or unitary Tax Returns, other than a group of which only the Company and the Subsidiaries are or were members. Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries has paid on a timely basis all Taxes that were due and payable. The unpaid Taxes of the Company and the Subsidiaries for tax periods through the Most Recent Balance Sheet Date do not exceed the accruals and reserves for Taxes (excluding accruals and reserves for deferred Taxes established to reflect timing differences between book and Tax income) set forth on the Most Recent Balance Sheet. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has any actual or potential liability for any Tax obligation of any taxpayer (including without limitation any affiliated group of corporations or other entities that included the Company or any Subsidiary during a prior period) other than the Company and the Subsidiaries. All Taxes that the Company or any Subsidiary is or was required by law to withhold or collect have been duly withheld or collected and, to the extent required, have been paid to the proper Governmental Entity. (c) The Company has delivered to the Buyer complete and accurate copies of all federal income Tax Returns, examination reports and statements of deficiencies assessed against or agreed to by the A-8 Company or any Subsidiary since December 31, 1996. The federal income Tax Returns of the Company and each Subsidiary have been audited by the Internal Revenue Service or are closed by the applicable statute of limitations for all taxable years through the taxable year specified in Section 2.9(c) of the Disclosure Schedule. No examination or audit of any Tax Return of the Company or any Subsidiary by any Governmental Entity is currently in progress or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened or contemplated.

(a) A party entitled, or seeking to assert rights, to indemnification under this Article VI (an "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") shall give written notification to the party from whom indemnification is sought (an "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") of the commencement of any suit or proceeding relating to a third party claim for which indemnification pursuant to this Article VI may be sought. Such notification shall be given within 20 business days after receipt by the Indemnified Party of notice of such suit or proceeding, and shall describe in reasonable detail (to the extent known by the Indemnified Party) the facts constituting the basis for such suit or proceeding and the amount of the claimed damages; provided, that, no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability or obligation hereunder except to the extent of any damage or liability caused by or arising out of such failure. Within 20 days after delivery of such notification, the Indemnifying Party may, upon written notice thereof to the Indemnified Party, assume control of the defense of such suit or proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided that (i) the Indemnifying Party may only assume control of such defense if (A) it acknowledges in writing to the Indemnified Party that any damages, fines, costs or other A-29 liabilities that may be assessed against the Indemnified Party in connection with such suit or proceeding constitute Damages for which the Indemnified Party shall be indemnified pursuant to this Article VI and (B) the AD DAMNUM is less than or equal to the amount of Damages for which the Indemnifying Party is liable under this Article VI and (ii) the Indemnifying Party may not assume control of the defense of a suit or proceeding involving criminal liability or in which equitable relief is sought against the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not so assume control of such defense, the Indemnified Party shall control such defense. The party not controlling such defense (the "NON-CONTROLLING PARTY") may participate therein at its own expense; provided that if the Indemnifying Party assumes control of such defense and the Indemnified Party reasonably concludes that the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party have conflicting interests or different defenses available with respect to such suit or proceeding, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party shall be considered "Damages" for purposes of this Agreement. The party controlling such defense (the "CONTROLLING PARTY") shall keep the Non-controlling Party advised of the status of such suit or proceeding and the defense thereof and shall consider in good faith recommendations made by the Non-controlling Party with respect thereto. The Non-controlling Party shall furnish the Controlling Party with such information as it may have with respect to such suit or proceeding (including copies of any summons, complaint or other pleading which may have been served on such party and any written claim, demand, invoice, billing or other document evidencing or asserting the same) and shall otherwise cooperate with and assist the Controlling Party in the defense of such suit or proceeding. The Indemnifying Party shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such suit or proceeding without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Indemnified Party shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such suit or proceeding without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. (b) In order to seek indemnification under this Article VI, an Indemnified Party shall give written notification (a "CLAIM NOTICE") to the Indemnifying Party which contains (i) a description and the amount (the "CLAIMED AMOUNT") of any Damages incurred or reasonably expected to be incurred by the Indemnified Party, (ii) a statement that the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Article VI for such Damages and a reasonable explanation of the basis therefor, and (iii) a demand for payment (in the manner provided in paragraph (c) below) in the amount of such Damages. (c) Within 20 days after delivery of a Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall deliver to the Indemnified Party a written response (the "RESPONSE") in which the Indemnifying Party shall: (i) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all of the Claimed Amount (in which case the Response shall be accompanied by a payment by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of the Claimed Amount, by check or by wire transfer; (ii) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive part, but not all, of the Claimed Amount (the "AGREED AMOUNT") (in which case the Response shall be accompanied by a payment by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of the Agreed Amount, by check or by wire transfer; or (iii) dispute that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive any of the Claimed Amount. If the Indemnifying Party in the Response disputes its liability for all or part of the Claimed Amount, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall follow the procedures set forth in Section 6.2(d) for the resolution of such dispute (a "DISPUTE"). (d) During the 60-day period following the delivery of a Response that reflects a Dispute, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall use good faith efforts to resolve the Dispute. If the Dispute is not resolved within such 60-day period, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall discuss in good faith the submission of the Dispute to a mutually acceptable alternative dispute resolution procedure (which may be non-binding or binding upon the parties, as they agree in advance) (the "ADR PROCEDURE"). In the event the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party agree upon an ADR Procedure, such parties shall, in consultation with the chosen dispute resolution service (the "ADR SERVICE"), promptly agree upon a format and timetable for the ADR Procedure, agree upon the A-30 rules applicable to the ADR Procedure, and promptly undertake the ADR Procedure. The provisions of this Section 6.3(d) shall not obligate the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party to pursue an ADR Procedure or prevent either such party from pursuing the Dispute in a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, that, if the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party agree to pursue an ADR Procedure, neither the Indemnifying Party nor the Indemnified Party may commence litigation or seek other remedies with respect to the Dispute prior to the completion of such ADR Procedure. Any ADR Procedure undertaken by the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall be considered a compromise negotiation for purposes of federal and state rules of evidence, and all statements, offers, opinions and disclosures (whether written or oral) made in the course of the ADR Procedure by or on behalf of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party or the ADR Service shall be treated as confidential and, where appropriate, as privileged work product. Such statements, offers, opinions and disclosures shall not be discoverable or admissible for any purposes in any litigation or other proceeding relating to the Dispute (provided, that, this sentence shall not be construed to exclude from discovery or admission any matter that is otherwise discoverable or admissible). The fees and expenses of any ADR Service used by the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall be shared equally by the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party. (e) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 6.2, if a third party asserts (other than by means of a lawsuit) that an Indemnified Party is liable to such third party for a monetary or other obligation which may constitute or result in Damages for which such Indemnified Party may be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article VI, and such Indemnified Party reasonably determines that it has a valid business reason to fulfill such obligation, then (i) such Indemnified Party shall be entitled to satisfy such obligation, without prior notice to or consent from the Indemnifying Party, (ii) such Indemnified Party may subsequently make a claim for indemnification in accordance with the provisions of this Article VI, and (iii) such Indemnified Party shall be reimbursed, in accordance with the provisions of this Article VI, for any such Damages for which it is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article VI (subject to the right of the Indemnifying Party to dispute the Indemnified Party's entitlement to indemnification, or the amount for which it is entitled to indemnification, under the terms of this Article VI). 6.3 SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, the Buyer Certificate and the Company Certificate and the indemnification obligations set forth in Article VI of this Agreement shall (a) survive the Closing and any investigation at any time made by or on behalf of an Indemnified Party and (b) shall expire on the date 18 months following the Closing Date. If an Indemnified Party delivers to an Indemnifying Party, before expiration of a representation or warranty, either a Claim Notice based upon a breach of such representation or warranty, or a notice that, as a result a legal proceeding instituted by or written claim made by a third party, the Indemnified Party reasonably expects to incur Damages as a result of a breach of such representation or warranty (an "EXPECTED CLAIM NOTICE"), then such representation or warranty shall survive until, but only for purposes of, the resolution of the matter covered by such notice. If the legal proceeding or written claim with respect to which an Expected Claim Notice has been given is definitively withdrawn or resolved in favor of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall promptly so notify the Indemnifying Party. 6.4 LIMITATIONS. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) the aggregate liability of the Indemnifying Stockholder for Damages under this Article VI shall not exceed the Indemnifying Stockholder's pro rata share of the sum of (x) the number of Merger Shares multiplied by the closing per share sale price of the Buyer Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market on the business day immediately prior to the Closing Date plus (y) the Cash Consideration (based on the number of Merger Shares received by the Indemnifying Stockholder as a percentage of the total number of Merger Shares issued) (such sum, the "TOTAL LIABILITY LIMIT") and (ii) the Indemnifying Stockholder A-31 shall not be liable under this Article VI unless and until the aggregate Damages for which they would otherwise be liable exceed $250,000 (at which point the Indemnifying Stockholder shall become liable for the aggregate Damages, and not just amounts in excess of $250,000). (b) [Intentionally Omitted.] (c) The Indemnifying Stockholder shall not have any right of contribution against the Company or the Surviving Corporation with respect to any breach by the Company of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements. (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the aggregate liability of the Buyer and the Transitory Subsidiary under this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be the Total Liability Limit.

The undersigned is the record holder and beneficial owner of such number of shares of Company Stock (the "SHARES") as is indicated on the final page of this Voting and Transfer Restriction Agreement (this "AGREEMENT"). The undersigned may be deemed to be an Affiliate (as defined in the Merger Agreement) of the Company. In consideration of the mutual agreements set forth in the Merger Agreement and hereinafter in this Agreement, the undersigned represents and agrees as follows: 1. VOTING.

(b) The undersigned agrees that any shares of Company Stock that the undersigned purchases or with respect to which the undersigned otherwise acquires beneficial ownership after the execution of this Agreement and prior to the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 7 of this Agreement ("NEW SHARES") shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement to the same extent as if they constituted Shares. (c) Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the undersigned agrees to deliver to the Buyer a proxy in the form attached hereto as Appendix A (the "PROXY"), which shall be irrevocable, with respect to the Shares. 2. TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS. The undersigned will not, for the period commencing on the date hereof and terminating on the date one year subsequent to the Effective Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement), sell, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of, or reduce the undersigned's interest in or risk relating to, any securities of the Company or any shares of Buyer Common Stock: (i) issued to the undersigned upon the conversion of the undersigned's shares of Company Stock in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement; (ii) issued to the undersigned upon the exercise of any Options (as defined in the Merger Agreement) assumed by the Buyer in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement; or (iii) otherwise acquired or beneficially owned by the undersigned as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (collectively with the shares of Buyer Common Stock described in the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), the "RESTRICTED SHARES").

(a) The undersigned will not offer, sell, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of, or reduce the undersigned's interest in or risk relating to, any shares of Buyer Common Stock issued to the undersigned in the Merger unless at such time either: (i) such transaction shall be permitted pursuant to the provisions of Rule 145 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES ACT"); (ii) the undersigned shall have furnished to the Buyer an opinion of counsel, satisfactory to the Buyer, to the effect that no registration under the Securities Act would be required in connection with the proposed offer, sale, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition; or (iii) a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the proposed offer, sale, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition shall be effective under the Securities Act.

APPRAISAL RIGHTS. (a) Any stockholder of a corporation of this State who holds shares of stock on the date of the making of a demand pursuant to subsection (d) of this section with respect to such shares, who continuously holds such shares through the effective date of the merger or consolidation, who has otherwise complied with subsection (d) of this section and who has neither voted in favor of the merger or consolidation nor consented thereto in writing pursuant to Section228 of this title shall be entitled to an appraisal by the Court of Chancery of the fair value of the stockholder's shares of stock under the circumstances described in subsections (b) and (c) of this section. As used in this section, the word "stockholder" means a holder of record of stock in a stock corporation and also a member of record of a nonstock corporation; the words "stock" and "share" mean and include what is ordinarily meant by those words and also membership or membership interest of a member of a nonstock corporation; and the words "depository receipt" mean a receipt or other instrument issued by a depository representing an interest in one or more shares, or fractions thereof, solely of stock of a corporation, which stock is deposited with the depository. (b) Appraisal rights shall be available for the shares of any class or series of stock of a constituent corporation in a merger or consolidation to be effected pursuant to Section251 (other than a merger effected pursuant to Section251(g) if this title), Section252, Section254, Section257, Section258, Section263 or Section264 of this title: (1) Provided, however, that no appraisal rights under this section shall be available for the shares of any class or series of stock, which stock, or depository receipts in respect thereof, at the record date fixed to determine the stockholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the meeting of stockholders to act upon the agreement of merger or consolidation, were either (i) listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a national market system security on an interdealer quotation system by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or (ii) held of record by more than 2,000 holders; and further provided that no appraisal rights shall be available for any shares of stock of the constituent corporation surviving a merger if the merger did not require for its approval the vote of the stockholders of the surviving corporation as provided in subsection (f) of Section251 of this title. (2) Notwithstanding paragraph (1) of this subsection, appraisal rights under this section shall be available for the shares of any class or series of stock of a constituent corporation if the holders thereof are required by the terms of an agreement of merger or consolidation pursuant to SectionSection251, 252, 254, 257, 258, 263 and 264 of this title to accept for such stock anything except: a. Shares of stock of the corporation surviving or resulting from such merger or consolidation, or depository receipts in respect thereof; b. Shares of stock of any other corporation, or depository receipts in respect thereof, which shares of stock (or depository receipts in respect thereof) or depository receipts at the effective date of the merger or consolidation will be either listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a national market system security on an interdealer quotation system by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or held of record by more than 2,000 holders; c. Cash in lieu of fractional shares or fractions depository receipts described in the foregoing subparagraphs a. and b. of this paragraph; or d. Any combination of the shares of stock, depository receipts and cash in lieu of fractional shares or fractional depository receipts described in the foregoing subparagraphs a., b. and c. of this paragraph. (3) In the event all of the stock of a subsidiary Delaware corporation party to a merger effected under Section253 of this title is not owned by the parent corporation immediately prior to the merger, appraisal rights shall be available for the shares of the subsidiary Delaware corporation. (c) Any corporation may provide in its certificate of incorporation that appraisal rights under this section shall be available for the shares of any class or series of its stock as a result of an amendment to its certificate of incorporation, any merger or consolidation in which the corporation is a constituent corporation or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the corporation. If the certificate of incorporation contains such a provision, the procedures of this section, including those set forth in subsections (d) and (e) of this section, shall apply as nearly as is practicable. (d) Appraisal rights shall be perfected as follows: (1) If a proposed merger or consolidation for which appraisal rights are provided under this section is to be submitted for approval at a meeting of stockholders, the corporation, not less than 20 days prior to the meeting, shall notify each of its stockholders who was such on the record date for such meeting with respect to shares for which appraisal rights are available pursuant to subsections (b) or (c) hereof that appraisal rights are available for any or all of the shares of the constituent corporations, and shall include in such notice a copy of this section. Each stockholder electing to demand the appraisal of SUCH STOCKHOLDER'S shares shall deliver to the corporation, before the taking of the vote on the merger or consolidation, a written demand for appraisal of SUCH STOCKHOLDER'S shares. Such demand will be sufficient if it reasonably informs the corporation of the identity of the stockholder and that the stockholder intends thereby to demand the appraisal of SUCH STOCKHOLDER'S shares. A proxy or vote against the merger or consolidation shall not constitute such a demand. A stockholder electing to take such action must do so by a separate written demand as herein provided. Within 10 days after the effective date of such merger or consolidation, the surviving or resulting corporation shall notify each stockholder of each constituent corporation who has complied with this subsection and has not voted in favor of or consented to the merger or consolidation of the date that the merger or consolidation has become effective; or (2) If the merger or consolidation was approved pursuant to Section228 or Section253 of this title, each constituent corporation, either before the effective date of the merger or consolidation or within ten days thereafter, shall notify each of the holders of any class or series of stock of such constituent corporation who are entitled to appraisal rights of the approval of the merger or consolidation and that appraisal rights are available for any or all shares of such class or series of stock of such constituent corporation, and shall include in such notice a copy of this section; provided that, if the notice is given on or after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, such notice shall be given by the surviving or resulting corporation to all such holders of any class or series of stock of a constituent corporation that are entitled to appraisal rights. Such notice may, and, if given on or after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, shall, also notify such stockholders of the effective date of the merger or consolidation. Any stockholder entitled to appraisal rights may, within 20 days after the date of mailing of such notice, demand in writing from the surviving or resulting corporation the appraisal of such holder's shares. Such demand will be sufficient if it reasonably informs the corporation of the identity of the stockholder and that the stockholder intends thereby to demand the appraisal of such holder's shares. If such notice did not notify stockholders of the effective date of the merger or consolidation, either (i) each such constituent corporation shall send a second notice before the effective date of the merger or consolidation notifying each of the holders of any class or series of stock of such constituent corporation that are entitled to appraisal rights of the effective date of the merger or consolidation or (ii) the surviving or resulting corporation shall send such a second notice to all such holders on or within 10 days after such effective date; provided, however, that if such second notice is sent more than 20 days following the sending of the first notice, such second notice need only be sent C-2 to each stockholder who is entitled to appraisal rights and who has demanded appraisal of such holder's shares in accordance with this subsection. An affidavit of the secretary or assistant secretary or of the transfer agent of the corporation that is required to give either notice that such notice has been given shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein. For purposes of determining the stockholders entitled to receive either notice, each constituent corporation may fix, in advance, a record date that shall be not more than 10 days prior to the date the notice is given, provided, that if the notice is given on or after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, the record date shall be such effective date. If no record date is fixed and the notice is given prior to the effective date, the record date shall be the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the notice is given. (e) Within 120 days after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, the surviving or resulting corporation or any stockholder who has complied with subsections (a) and (d) hereof and who is otherwise entitled to appraisal rights, may file a petition in the Court of Chancery demanding a determination of the value of the stock of all such stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time within 60 days after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, any stockholder shall have the right to withdraw SUCH STOCKHOLDER'S demand for appraisal and to accept the terms offered upon the merger or consolidation. Within 120 days after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, any stockholder who has complied with the requirements of subsections (a) and (d) hereof, upon written request, shall be entitled to receive from the corporation surviving the merger or resulting from the consolidation a statement setting forth the aggregate number of shares not voted in favor of the merger or consolidation and with respect to which demands for appraisal have been received and the aggregate number of holders of such shares. Such written statement shall be mailed to the stockholder within 10 days after SUCH STOCKHOLDER'S written request for such a statement is received by the surviving or resulting corporation or within 10 days after expiration of the period for delivery of demands for appraisal under subsection (d) hereof, whichever is later. (f) Upon the filing of any such petition by a stockholder, service of a copy thereof shall be made upon the surviving or resulting corporation, which shall within 20 days after such service file in the office of the Register in Chancery in which the petition was filed a duly verified list containing the names and addresses of all stockholders who have demanded payment for their shares and with whom agreements as to the value of their shares have not been reached by the surviving or resulting corporation. If the petition shall be filed by the surviving or resulting corporation, the petition shall be accompanied by such a duly verified list. The Register in Chancery, if so ordered by the Court, shall give notice of the time and place fixed for the hearing of such petition by registered or certified mail to the surviving or resulting corporation and to the stockholders shown on the list at the addresses therein stated. Such notice shall also be given by 1 or more publications at least 1 week before the day of the hearing, in a newspaper of general circulation published in the City of Wilmington, Delaware or such publication as the Court deems advisable. The forms of the notices by mail and by publication shall be approved by the Court, and the costs thereof shall be borne by the surviving or resulting corporation. (g) At the hearing on such petition, the Court shall determine the stockholders who have complied with this section and who have become entitled to appraisal rights. The Court may require the stockholders who have demanded an appraisal for their shares and who hold stock represented by certificates to submit their certificates of stock to the Register in Chancery for notation thereon of the pendency of the appraisal proceedings; and if any stockholder fails to comply with such direction, the Court may dismiss the proceedings as to such stockholder. (h) After determining the stockholders entitled to appraisal, the Court shall apraise the shares, determining their fair value exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the merger of consolidation, together with a fair rate of interest, if any, to be paid upon the amount determined to be the fair value. In determining such fair value, the Court shall take into account all relevant factors. In determining the fair rate of interest, the may consider all relevant C-3 factors, including the rate of interest which the surviving or resulting corporation would have had to pay to borrow money during the pendency of the proceeding. Upon application by the surviving or resulting corporation or by any stockholder entitled to participate in the appraisal proceeding, the Court may, in its discretion, permit discovery or other pretrial proceedings and may proceed to trial upon the appraisal prior to the final determination of the stockholder entitled to an appraisal. Any stockholder whose name appears on the list filed by the surviving or resulting corporation pursuant to subsection (f) of this section and who has submitted SUCH STOCKHOLDER'S certificates of stock to the Register in Chancery, if such is required, may participate fully in all proceedings until it is finally determined that SUCH STOCKHOLDER is not entitled to appraisal rights under this section. (i) The Court shall direct the payment of the fair value of the shares, together with interest, if any, by the surviving or resulting corporation to the stockholders entitled thereto. Interest may be simple or compound, as the Court may direct. Payment shall be so made to each such stockholder, in the case of holders of uncertificated stock forthwith, and the case of holders of shares represented by certificates upon the surrender to the corporation of the certificates representing such stock. The Court's decree may be enforced as other decrees in the Court of Chancery may be enforced, whether such surviving or resulting corporation be a corporation of this State or of any state. (j) The costs of the proceeding may be determined by the Court and taxed upon the parties as the Court deems equitable in the circumstances. Upon application of a stockholder, the Court may order all or a portion of the expenses incurred by any stockholder in connection with the appraisal proceeding, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees and the fees and expenses of experts, to be charged pro rata against the value of all the shares entitled to an appraisal. (k) From and after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, no stockholder who has demanded appraisal rights as provided in subsection (d) of this section shall be entitled to vote such stock for any purpose or to receive payment of dividends or other distributions on the stock (except dividends or other distributions payable to stockholders of record at a date which is prior to the effective date of the merger or consolidation); provided, however, that if no petition for an appraisal shall be filed within the time provided in subsection (e) of this section, or if such stockholder shall deliver to the surviving or resulting corporation a written withdrawal of SUCH STOCKHOLDER'S demand for an appraisal and an acceptance of the merger or consolidation, either within 60 days after the effective date of the merger or consolidation as provided in subsection (e) of this section or thereafter with the written approval of the corporation, then the right of such stockholder to an appraisal shall cease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no appraisal proceeding in the Court of Chancery shall be dismissed as to any stockholder without the approval of the Court, and such approval may be conditioned upon such terms as the Court deems just. (l) The shares of the surviving or resulting corporation to which the shares of such objecting stockholders would have been converted had they assented to the merger or consolidation shall have the status of authorized and unissued shares of the surviving or resulting corporation. C-4 PART II INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS ITEM 20. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law grants the Registrant the power to indemnify each person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Registrant, or is or was serving at the request of the Registrant as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Registrant, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful; provided, however, no indemnification shall be made in connection with any proceeding brought by or in the right of the Registrant where the person involved is adjudged to be liable to the Registrant except to the extent approved by a court. Article VI of the Registrant's Restated By-laws provide that the Registrant shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify each director and officer who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, or proceeding by reason of the fact that he is or was, or has agreed to become, a director or officer of the Registrant, or is or was serving at the written request of the Registrant, as a director, officer or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise. The indemnification provided for in Article VI is expressly not exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under any law, agreement, or vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, and administrators of such persons. Article VI also provides that the Registrant shall have the power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the Registrant, or is or was serving at the request of the Registrant, as a director, trustee, partner, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against any liability asserted against and incurred by such person in any such capacity. Pursuant to Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, Article EIGHTH of the Registrant's Restated Certificate of Incorporation eliminates a director's personal liability for monetary damages to the Registrant and its stockholders for breaches of fiduciary duty as a director, except in circumstances involving a breach of a director's duty of loyalty to the Registrant or its stockholders, acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or knowing violation of the law, self-dealing, or the unlawful payment of dividends or repurchase of stock. The Registrant maintains an insurance policy on behalf of itself and its subsidiaries, and on behalf of the directors and officers thereof, covering certain liabilities which may arise as a result of the actions of the directors and officers. The Registrant has entered into agreements with certain of its directors affirming the Registrant's obligation to indemnify them to the fullest extent permitted by law and providing various other protections.

ITEM 22. 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; (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, represents 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 Statement. (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, 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 Registration hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act), 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. The Registrant hereby undertakes as follows: (1) That prior to any public reoffering of the securities registered hereunder through use of a prospectus which is a part of this Registration Statement, by any person or party who is deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Rule 145(c), the Registrant undertakes that such reoffering prospectus will contain the information called for by the applicable registration form with respect to reofferings by persons who may be deemed underwriters, in addition to the information called for by the other Items of the applicable form. (2) That every prospectus (i) that is filed pursuant to paragraph (1) immediately preceding, or (ii) that purports to meet the requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act and is used in connection with an offering of securities subject to Rule 415, will be filed as a part of an II-6 amendment to this Registration Statement and will not be used until such amendment is effective, and that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, 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. D. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, 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 Securities 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 Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. E. The Registrant hereby undertakes to respond to requests for information that is incorporated by reference into the prospectus pursuant to Items 4, 10(b), 11, or 13 of this Form, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first class mail or other equally prompt means. This includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of this Registration Statement through the date of responding to the request. F. The Registrant hereby undertakes to supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of and included in the Registration Statement when it became effective. II-7 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant has duly caused this Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Marlboro, Commonwealth of Massachusetts on the 10th day of August, 2000.
