	Our substantial indebtedness could adversely affect our financial health and prevent us from fulfilling our obligations under the notes.

	•	make it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to the notes;
	•	require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on our indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow to fund acquisitions, working capital, capital expenditures, research and development efforts and other general corporate purposes;
	•	increase our vulnerability to and limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate;
	•	expose us to the risk of increased interest rates as borrowings under our senior credit facilities are subject to variable rates of interest;
	•	place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt; and
	•	limit our ability to borrow additional funds.

	To service our indebtedness, we will require a significant amount of cash. Our ability to generate cash depends on many factors beyond our control.

17

Table of Contents

	Despite current indebtedness levels, we and our subsidiaries may still be able to incur substantially more debt. This could further exacerbate the risks associated with our substantial financial leverage.

	Your rights to receive payments on the notes are junior to the borrowings under our senior credit facilities and all future secured or senior indebtedness. Further, the guarantees of the notes are junior to the guarantors’ secured and senior indebtedness and all future secured or senior indebtedness.

	Restrictive covenants in the indenture governing the notes and the agreement governing our senior credit facilities may restrict our ability to pursue our business strategies.

	•	incur additional indebtedness;
	•	sell assets, including capital stock of restricted subsidiaries;
	•	agree to payment restrictions affecting our restricted subsidiaries;
	•	consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets;
	•	enter into transactions with our affiliates;
	•	incur liens; and
	•	designate any of our subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries.

Table of Contents

	•	declare all borrowings outstanding, together with accrued interest and other fees, to be immediately due and payable; or
	•	prevent us from making payments on the notes,

	Federal and state statutes allow courts, under specific circumstances, to void guarantees and require note holders to return payments received from guarantors.

	•	was insolvent or rendered insolvent by reason of such incurrence; or
	•	was engaged in a business or transaction for which the guarantor’s remaining assets constituted unreasonably small capital; or
	•	intended to incur, or believed that it would incur, debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature.

	•	the sum of its debts, including contingent liabilities, was greater than the fair saleable value of all of its assets; or
	•	if the present fair saleable value of its assets was less than the amount that would be required to pay its probable liability on its existing debts, including contingent liabilities, as they become absolute and mature; or
	•	it could not pay its debts as they become due.

19

Table of Contents

	Certain subsidiaries are not included as subsidiary guarantors.

	We may not have the ability to raise the funds necessary to finance the change of control offer required by the indenture governing the notes.

	Your ability to transfer the exchange notes may be limited by the absence of an active trading market, and we cannot assure you that an active trading market for the exchange notes will develop.

	The market price for the notes may be volatile.

20

Table of Contents

	If you do not properly tender your old notes, your ability to transfer your old notes will be adversely affected.

	Our business is greatly affected by changes in the state of the general economy and the financial markets, and a slowdown or downturn in the general economy or the financial markets could adversely affect our results of operations.

	•	cancel or reduce planned expenditures for our products and services;
	•	seek to lower their costs by renegotiating their contracts with us;
	•	move their IT solutions in-house;
	•	switch to lower-priced solutions provided by our competitors; or
	•	exit the industry.

	Further or accelerated consolidations in the financial services industry could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

	We expect that our operating results, including our profit margins and profitability, may fluctuate over time.

	•	the timing, size and nature of our license and service transactions;
	•	the timing of the introduction and the market acceptance of new products, product enhancements or services by us or our competitors;
	•	the amount and timing of our operating costs and other expenses;
	•	the financial health of our clients;
	•	changes in the volume of assets under our clients’ management;
	•	cancellations of maintenance and/or outsourcing arrangements by our clients;
	•	changes in local, national and international regulatory requirements;
	•	changes in our personnel;
	•	implementation of our licensing contracts and outsourcing arrangements;
	•	changes in economic and financial market conditions; and
	•	changes in the mix of the types of products and services we provide.

	If we are unable to retain and attract clients, our revenues and net income would remain stagnant or decline.

	•	the level of demand for our products and services;
	•	the level of client spending for information technology;
	•	the level of competition from internal client solutions and from other vendors;
	•	the quality of our client service;
	•	our ability to update our products and services and develop new products and services needed by clients;
	•	our ability to understand the organization and processes of our clients; and
	•	our ability to integrate and manage acquired businesses.

	We face significant competition with respect to our products and services, which may result in price reductions, reduced gross margins or loss of market share.

Table of Contents

	We may not achieve the anticipated benefits from our acquisitions and may face difficulties in integrating our acquisitions, which could adversely affect our revenues, subject us to unknown liabilities, increase costs and place a significant strain on our management.

	•	combine operations, facilities and differing firm cultures;
	•	retain the clients or employees of acquired entities;
	•	generate market demand for new products and services;
	•	coordinate geographically dispersed operations and successfully adapt to the complexities of international operations;
	•	integrate the technical teams of these companies with our engineering organization;
	•	incorporate acquired technologies and products into our current and future product lines; and
	•	integrate the products and services of these companies with our business, where we do not have distribution, marketing or support experience for these products and services.

	If we are unable to protect our proprietary technology, our success and our ability to compete will be subject to various risks, such as third-party infringement claims, unauthorized use of our technology, disclosure of our proprietary information or inability to license technology from third parties.

Table of Contents

Our failure to continue to derive substantial revenues from the licensing of, or outsourcing solutions related to, our CAMRA, TradeThru, Pacer, AdvisorWare and Total Return software, and the provision of maintenance and professional services in support of such licensed software, could adversely affect our ability to sustain or grow our revenues and harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

	We may be unable to adapt to rapidly changing technology and evolving industry standards, and our inability to introduce new products and services could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

	•	we may find it difficult or costly to update our services and software and to develop new products and services quickly enough to meet our clients’ needs;
	•	we may find it difficult or costly to make some features of our software work effectively and securely over the Internet or with new or changed operating systems;
	•	we may find it difficult or costly to update our software and services to keep pace with business, evolving industry standards, regulatory and other developments in the industries where our clients operate; and
	•	we may be exposed to liability for security breaches that allow unauthorized persons to gain access to confidential information stored on our computers or transmitted over our network.

	Undetected software design defects, errors or failures may result in loss of or delay in market acceptance of our products or in liabilities that could adversely affect our revenues, financial condition and results of operations.

Table of Contents

	If we cannot attract, train and retain qualified managerial, technical and sales personnel, we may not be able to provide adequate technical expertise and customer service to our clients or maintain focus on our business strategy.

	Challenges in maintaining and expanding our international operations can result in increased costs, delayed sales efforts and uncertainty with respect to our intellectual property rights and results of operations.

	•	difficulties in obtaining U.S. export licenses;
	•	potentially longer payment cycles;
	•	increased costs associated with maintaining international marketing efforts;
	•	foreign currency fluctuations;
	•	the introduction of non-tariff barriers and higher duty rates;
	•	foreign regulatory compliance; and
	•	difficulties in enforcement of third-party contractual obligations and intellectual property rights.

	Catastrophic events may adversely affect our ability to provide, our clients’ ability to use, and the demand for, our products and services, which may disrupt our business and cause a decline in revenues.

Our combined results for the year ended December 31, 2005 represent the addition of the Predecessor period from January 1, 2005 through November 22, 2005 and the Successor period from November 23, 2005 through December 31, 2005. This combination does not comply with GAAP or with the rules for pro forma presentation, but is presented because we believe it provides a more meaningful comparison of our results than a comparison of 2004 results against either Predecessor or Successor results for 2005.

	Grow Our Software-Enabled Outsourcing and Other Contractually Recurring Revenues. We plan to further increase our contractually recurring revenue streams from our software-enabled outsourcing solutions and maintenance services because they provide us with greater predictability in the operation of our business and enable us to build valued relationships with our clients. We believe that our software-enabled outsourcing solutions provide an attractive alternative to clients that do not wish to install, run and maintain complicated financial software.
	Increase Revenues from Our Existing Clients. Revenues from our existing clients generally grow along with the volume of assets that they manage. While we expect to continue to benefit from this trend, we intend to continue to use our deep understanding of the financial services industry to identify other opportunities to increase our revenues from our existing clients. Many of our current customers use our products for a relatively small portion of their total funds and investment vehicles under management, providing us with excellent opportunities for growth as we attempt to gain a larger share of their business. We have been successful in, and expect to continue to focus our marketing efforts on, providing additional modules or features to the products and services our existing clients already use, as well as cross-selling our other products and services to them.
	Enhance Our Product and Service Offerings to Address the Specialized Needs of Our Clients. We have accumulated substantial financial expertise since our founding in 1986 through close working relationships with our clients, resulting in a deep knowledge base that enables us to respond to their most complex financial, accounting, actuarial, tax and regulatory needs. We intend to leverage our expertise by continuing to offer products and services that address the highly specialized needs of the financial services industry. Our internal product development team works closely with marketing and support personnel to ensure that product evolution reflects developments in the marketplace and trends in client requirements. In addition, we intend to continue to develop our products in a cost-effective manner by leveraging common components across product families. We believe that we enjoy a competitive advantage because we can address the investment and financial management needs of high-end clients by providing industry-tested products and services that meet global market demands and enable our clients to automate and integrate their front-, middle- and back-office functions for improved productivity, reduced manual intervention and bottom-line savings.
	Maintain Our Commitment to the Highest Level of Client Service. We intend to continue to differentiate ourselves from our competition through our commitment to the highest level of client service. Our clients include large, sophisticated institutions with complex systems and requirements, and we understand the importance of providing them with both the experience of our senior management and the technical expertise of our sales, professional services and support staffs. Our commitment begins with our senior management team, which actively participates in creating and building client relationships. For each solution deployment, we analyze our client’s needs and assemble a team of appropriate industry vertical and technical experts who can quickly and efficiently deliver tailored solutions to the client. We provide our larger clients with a full-time dedicated client support team whose primary responsibility is to resolve questions and provide solutions to address ongoing needs. We expect to build even greater client loyalty and generate high-quality references for future clients by leveraging the individual attention and industry expertise provided by our senior management and staff.
	Capitalize on Acquisition Opportunities. We believe that the market for financial services software and services is highly fragmented and rapidly evolving, with many new product introductions and industry participants. To supplement our internal development efforts and capitalize on growth opportunities, we intend to continue to employ a disciplined and highly focused acquisition strategy. We will seek to opportunistically acquire, at attractive valuations, businesses, products and technologies in our existing or complementary vertical markets.
