PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS In January 1996, Aspen Technology, Inc. (the Company) purchased approximately 81% of common stock of Dynamic Matrix Control Corporation (DMCC) for approximately $15.7 million in cash. In February 1996, the remaining 19% of common stock was purchased for an additional $3.0 million in cash. This acquisition is being accounted for as a purchase, and due to the different basis in assets for book and tax purposes, deferred taxes have been provided for as part of the purchase price allocation in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 109. A significant portion of the purchase price, as outlined in the attached notes to these pro forma financial statements, has been identified in an appraisal as intangible assets, including approximately $9.5 million of research and development in process (see discussion in Note 3). In addition, in January 1996, the Company signed a definitive agreement to purchase 100% of the outstanding stock of Setpoint, Inc. for $26.3 million. The purchase price is subject to certain downward adjustments based upon the net worth of Setpoint as of December 31, 1995 and negotiations with the seller. Based upon the tangible net worth identified in the audited balance sheet as of December 31, 1995, the purchase price could be adjusted downward by up to $900,000. Upon closing, the Company paid down $1.7 million of the $5.2 million of outstanding intercompany debt and signed a note for the remaining $3.5 million. This note is due in November 1996. This note is subject to an adjustment if the purchase price is reduced below $26.3 million. The pro forma financial statements presented herein do not reflect a net worth adjustment as it is subject to negotiations. If the purchase price is later adjusted, the purchase price allocation outlined in Note 1, will be appropriately adjusted. This acquisition is also being accounted for as a purchase, and due to the different basis in assets, for book and tax purposes, deferred taxes have been provided for as part of the purchase price allocation in accordance with SFAS 109. Additionally, a significant portion of the purchase price has been identified in an appraisal as intangible assets, including approximately $14.9 million of research and development in process (see discussion in Note 3). The accompanying pro forma combined condensed balance sheets as of June 30, 1995 and December 31, 1995 assume that the acquisitions of DMCC and Setpoint took place as of the beginning of the fiscal year presented July 1, 1994, and carried forward through the interim period presented. The pro forma combined condensed statements of income do not include the effect of any non-recurring charges directly attributable to the acquisition. The accompanying pro forma combined condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and related notes thereto for the Company, DMCC and Setpoint. 3 5 ASPEN TECHNOLOGY, INC.

Acquisition of Dynamic Matrix Control Corporation (DMCC) The following outlines the current estimate for the purchase price of the acquisition of DMCC .

(1,491) ------- $20,139 =======
b. Acquisition of Setpoint, Inc. The following outlines the current estimate for the purchase price allocation of Setpoint, Inc.. While management believes this to be the best estimate at this time, the purchase price that this estimate is based on has not been finalized. If the purchase price is adjusted, it will result only in an adjustment to the purchase price adjustment, as outlined below: Purchased R&D In-Process............................................... $14,900 Existing Technology.................................................... 3,308 Other Intangibles...................................................... 1,709 Goodwill............................................................... 1,300 Uncompleted Contracts.................................................. 504 ------- 21,721 Net book value of assets............................................... 8,502 ------- 30,223 Less: Deferred Taxes................................................... (2,043) ------- $28,180 =======
NOTE 2. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS Certain pro forma adjustments have been made to the accompanying pro forma combined condensed balance sheets and statements of operations as described below for both DMCC and Setpoint. The pro forma adjustments outlined below assume that the purchase of both acquisitions took place at the beginning of Aspen's last fiscal year, specifically July 1, 1994. Due to the non-recurring nature of the Purchased R&D In-Process it has been assumed to be written off before the beginning of the pro forma period (July 1, 1994). DMCC: (1),(2) Earn out of uncompleted contracts. (3) Depreciation of additional amounts allocated to building, using a life of 30 years. 8 10 ASPEN TECHNOLOGY, INC. NOTES TO PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) (UNAUDITED) (4) Amortization of intangibles over lives ranging form 5 - 10 years. (5) Related tax effect of adjustments (1) - (4). (6) To record purchase price outlined above in Note 1a. (7) To record effect on interest income of liquidating short-term investments to acquire DMCC assets, including related tax effect. Setpoint: (8) Earn out of uncompleted contracts. (9) Amortization of intangibles over lives ranging from 5 - 10 years. (10) Related tax effect of adjustments (8) & (9). (11) To record purchase price outlined above in Note 1b. (12) To increase interest expense and reduce interest income as a result of liquidating investments and increasing debt necessary to acquire Setpoint assets. (13) Eliminate $482,000 of non-recurring management fees for which no direct or indirect services were received. Aspen has not charged such fees to subsidiaries in the past and does not intend to do so in the future. Eliminate $354,000 of non-recurring bonuses paid pursuant to phantom stock agreement terminated by Aspen at the time Setpoint was acquired. (14) Eliminate intercompany revenues related to the joint venture activities between Setpoint and the Company prior to the acquisition. (15) Related tax effect of (12) - (14). NOTE 3. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT IN-PROCESS In connection with the purchase price allocation, the Company received an appraisal of the assets acquired from both DMCC and Setpoint which indicates that these assets combined include approximately $24.4 million of research and development in process. In the opinion of management and the appraiser, the acquired research and development in process has no alternative uses, and accordingly, this amount will be charged to expense at the time the acquisitions are consummated. This charge has been assumed to be written-off before the pro forma periods presented. 9 11 ASPEN TECHNOLOGY, INC. NOTES TO PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) (UNAUDITED) c.
