experienced a net loss in the three and nine months ended September

2001. The Company has been able to maintain its expense reductions and
recurring revenue stream. Cover-All has also been able to
significantly grow its sales pipeline despite market conditions and
longer decision cycles.
"During the third quarter of 2002, Cover-All continued to
reposition itself in the marketplace from a product-based company to a
solutions provider. We have been meeting with current and potential
customers to get the message out that our solutions offer significant
business benefits today, rich functionality and value over time. The
very positive response has resulted in significant growth in our sales
pipeline and we are optimistic that we will successfully close new
opportunities in the upcoming months. While the current economic
conditions remain challenging, Cover-All is continuing to invest in
our sales and marketing efforts as well as the development of new
capabilities that will be available in early 2003. I believe the
Company is well positioned for success in the current year and
beyond."
