ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

        The information set forth in Item 4 of this Schedule is incorporated by reference into this Item 3. The merger consideration is expected to consist of cash and stock consideration with an aggregate value of $2.15 per share. It is currently anticipated that the cash amounts necessary to complete the merger transaction shall come from existing funds of CIBER and from borrowings under its credit facility.

ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

        On October 24, 2003, CIBER, Daphne Acquisition Corp., a Tennessee corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of CIBER formed solely for the purpose of effecting the proposed merger ("Daphne"), and the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"). The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, for the Issuer to be merged with Daphne, with the Issuer to be the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of CIBER. Pursuant to the transaction contemplated under the Merger Agreement (the "Merger"), the shareholders of the Issuer will receive cash and stock consideration with an aggregate value of $2.15.

        The consummation of the Merger is subject to various conditions, including without limitation, the approval of the Merger by the Issuer's shareholders. Any references to or descriptions of the Merger are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 1 hereto and is incorporated by reference into this Item 4.

        Concurrently with entering into the Merger Agreement, CIBER and T. Scott Cobb, T. Scott Cobb Jr., and Jeffrey Cobb (the "Shareholders") entered into a Voting and Option Agreement dated October 24, 2003 (the "Voting Agreement"). Under the terms of the Voting Agreement, the Shareholders agreed to vote certain of the shares of the Issuer's common stock held by them in favor of the Merger and against any other merger, consolidation, combination, sale or transfer of a material amount of assets, reorganization, recapitalization, dissolution and the like, and agreed not to solicit or facilitate any such other transaction. In addition, the Shareholders other than T. Scott Cobb Jr. (the "Option Shareholders") granted David Durham, an officer of CIBER, an irrevocable proxy to vote these shares in accordance with the Voting Agreement until the termination of the Voting Agreement.

        The Option Shareholders also granted CIBER an irrevocable option to purchase their respective shares upon the occurrence of specific triggering events as defined in the Merger Agreement. The option has an excise price of $2.15 per share (subject to adjustment) and is exercisable at any time after the occurrence of a triggering event and prior to (i) the effective date of the Merger, or (ii) the closing of the transaction that causes a triggering event, but in no event not later than one year after the date of the triggering event. CIBER may exercise the option for all, but not less than all, of the shares subject to the option.

        The foregoing summary of the Voting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Voting Agreement which is filed as Exhibit 2 hereto and is incorporated by reference into this Item 4.

ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

        CIBER does not directly own any Common Stock but may be deemed to beneficially own 3,913,697 shares subject to the Voting Agreement described in Item 4. Based on the 25,294,954 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of September 3, 2003, as reported in the Issuer's 10-Q dated September 11, 2003, CIBER beneficially owns approximately 15.47% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock.
