To the Stockholders of NetObjects, Inc.:
Enclosed is an Information Statement that we are sending to you in connection with the sale of our remaining software business to Website Pros, Inc. ("Website Pros"), under the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of October 10, 2001. In February 2001, we sold our Enterprise division to focus on providing website building software and services to small business customers through our Small Business division. Currently, the Small Business division consists of the NetObjects Matrix Platform and NetObjects Matrix Builder software products and services, NetObjects Fusion and the NetObjects GoBizGo software products and business. The sale of the Small Business division constitutes part of the liquidation and wind up of NetObjects. Upon completion of the sale we intend to cease all operations, make payments to creditors and otherwise conclude the affairs of NetObjects.
Our board of directors has already approved the Website Pros transaction. The Small Business division represents substantially all of our present operations and assets. IBM Corporation and I collectively hold the power to vote a majority of NetObjects' common stock and we have already approved the transaction by written consent. Therefore, this Information Statement is being sent to you for informational purposes only. We are not asking for a proxy or vote on any of the matters described in this Information Statement. We encourage you to read this Information Statement carefully.
Sincerely,
Samir Arora Chairman

INFORMATION STATEMENT
AND
NOTICE OF ACTION TAKEN WITHOUT A MEETING
Dated October __, 2001
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This Information Statement and Notice of Action Taken Without a Meeting is furnished to the stockholders of NetObjects, Inc., a Delaware corporation, (the "Company" or "NetObjects") to provide information with respect to an action taken by written consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock that were entitled to vote on such action. This Information Statement also constitutes notice of action taken without a meeting as required by Section 228(d) of the Delaware General Corporation Law.
The written consent approved the sale of the Company's Small Business division to Website Pros for $600,000 in cash and future royalties on future revenues earned by Website Pros from the purchased assets of the Small Business division under the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of October 10, 2001 (the "Definitive Agreement"). This transaction involves the sale of substantially all of the property and assets of NetObjects within the meaning of
Section 271(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Because a transaction subject to Section 271(a) requires approval of a majority of the corporation's outstanding voting shares under Delaware law, the board of directors sought the approval of our stockholders for the sale of the Small Business division to Website Pros. Two of our stockholders, IBM and Samir Arora, represent a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock and have signed the written consent. Therefore, all required corporate approvals of the transaction have been obtained. This Information Statement is furnished solely for the purpose of informing stockholders of this corporate action in the manner required by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We Are Not Asking You for a Proxy and You Are Requested Not to Send Us a Proxy.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The record date for determining stockholders entitled to receive this Information Statement has been established as the close of business on September 30, 2001. As of the record date, we had 31,799,616 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. Each share of our common stock entitles its holder to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY TERM SHEET
On August 31, 2001, we terminated the employment of all remaining employees of the Company and commenced the process of liquidating and winding up the Company's business. On September 10, 2001, we and Website Pros signed a nonbinding term sheet under which Website Pros agreed to enter into negotiations to purchase the Small Business division. We signed the Definitive Agreement, which was contemplated under the nonbinding term sheet, as of October 10, 2001.
Our Small Business division provides software and professional services to small businesses desiring online and Web application services that enable them to take advantage of the Internet to expand and improve their business and build a successful Web presence. The principal products of our Small Business division are NetObjects Fusion software, NetObjects GoBizBo software and online services and NetObjects Matrix software and online services. The NetObjects Fusion software has been instrumental in the development of over four million Web sites and has become an industry standard in Web site building. The NetObjects GoBizGo software is a Web application services site where small businesses can find sources of information, products, and services which provide the solutions and services needed to build a successful Web presence. The NetObjects Matrix software is an integrated suite of essential subscription-based online services designed to be distributed by significant service providers that enables small businesses to take advantage of the Internet to expand and improve their businesses.
The following is a summary of the material terms of the Definitive Agreement:
o We will sell and/or perpetually license to Website Pros substantially all of the current assets of our Small Business division, including the NetObjects Fusion software, the NetObjects Matrix Platform, the Net Objects Matrix Builder software and the GoBizGo software division, related service websites, the goodwill of the Small Business division and substantially all of the related intellectual property.
o We are working with Website Pros to preserve customers and goodwill during the transition period between the execution and delivery of the Definitive Agreement and the consummation of the sale of the Small Business division (the "Closing").
o We entered into an interim license agreement granting to Website Pros the right to use any of our intellectual property or proprietary information necessary for Website Pros to assist us in supporting current customers and new customers of the Small Business division and to continue to market the Small Business division software products and online services.
o We will assist Website Pros in obtaining a license to the patents related to the NetObjects Fusion software, which we have sold to Macromedia, Inc. in a separate transaction.
o We will receive a total of $600,000 in cash immediately upon the Closing, and quarterly earnout payments thereafter based on certain revenues generated from the purchased assets during the three-year period following the Closing. We estimate
2
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
the current fair market value of the initial cash payment and future royalties to be approximately $4 million. In any event the maximum amount that Website Pros is obligated to pay under the Definitive Agreement is $10 million.
o As of the Closing, Website Pros will assume certain of our ongoing contractual obligations related to the continued operation of the Small Business division and future licensing and distribution of the Small Business division software products but will not assume any other liabilities of the Company whatsoever, whether related to the Small Business division, its assets or otherwise.
o The Closing is projected to occur in November 2001, approximately 20 days after the date of this Information Statement.
The terms of the Definitive Agreement are more specifically described below.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ACTIONS TAKEN
Our board of directors unanimously authorized and approved the sale of the Small Business division and the material terms of the Definitive Agreement at a telephonic meeting conducted on October 3, 2001. The holders of a majority of our voting stock approved the sale of substantially all of our assets by unanimous written consent on the same date.
As of September 30, 2001, the record date for this transaction, these stockholders held 16,732,195 shares, or approximately 52.6% of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding. As the transaction and the Definitive Agreement have been approved by a majority of our stockholders, no proxies are being solicited with this Information Statement.
You are being provided with this Information Statement pursuant to
Section 14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Regulation 14C and Schedule 14C thereunder. The sale of the Small Business division will not become effective until at least 20 days after the mailing of this Information Statement. This Information Statement is being mailed to the stockholders on or about October ___, 2001.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Information Statement may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Such statements can be identified by the words "believes", "anticipates", "plans", "expects", and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements about the planned sale of our Small Business division. These forward-looking statements do not constitute assurances regarding future results, including the planned sale of the Small Business division, or the likelihood of earnout payments, if any. Actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements due to various factors, including the risk that the planned sale of the Small Business division may not be completed. We undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements as new information becomes available or relevant events occur in the future.
NO DISSENTERS' RIGHTS OF APPRAISAL
The corporate actions described in this Information Statement will not afford our stockholders the opportunity to dissent from those actions or to receive an agreed or judicially appraised value for their shares of our common stock as a result of those actions.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BACKGROUND OF AND REASONS FOR THE SALE
From our inception through August 31, 2001, the date upon which we commenced the windup of our affairs, we dedicated our business to being a leading provider of software, solutions, and services that enable small businesses to build, deploy and maintain web sites, conduct online e-business, and enable large enterprises to effectively create and manage corporate intranets.
Our objective was to become a leading provider of online services for small businesses. We focused on partnerships with service providers--from telcos and financial institutions to ISPs and hardware manufacturers--to deliver these services to their small business customers. Our products, including those which comprise the Small Business division, offer partners the technology solutions and services they need to enable their small business customers to successfully leverage the power of the web. Our applications and services empower small businesses by helping them create web sites, engage in e-commerce, and grow and manage their businesses. In deploying these services, our partners benefit from potential new sources of revenue, faster time to market, less administrative overhead, and an improved customer experience.
As usage of the Internet by businesses and related markets for our products and services evolved, we narrowed our focus in order to become a leading provider of essential online services for small businesses worldwide by partnering with service providers who could provide mass distribution to their small business customers. We made significant progress in building and partnering to create best-of-class Web site builders and online services for services providers and their subscribers. However, we have sustained substantial operating losses since we began our business. Our existing and expected sources of revenues are not adequate to fund future operations of the Small Business division for the long term. Further, despite substantial and concerted efforts for an extended period, we were unable to raise sufficient capital to finance anticipated future losses from operations.
Recent Developments
On February 18, 2001, we sold our Enterprise division, including our Collage platform, to Merant Incorporated for approximately $18 million in cash. A payment of $14 million was received in the quarter ended March 31, 2001 and $4 million was received as an advance in the quarter ended December 31, 2000. NetObjects Collage provides an integrated platform that combines collaboration with content management, enterprise integration, and dynamic application services. The sale of the Enterprise division substantially reduced our software licensing business and revenue, and we continued to shift our business focus towards online solutions for small business.
Following the sale of the Enterprise division, our board of directors retained Broadview International LLC, or Broadview, to explore a range of strategic alternatives for the Company. Through introductions initiated by Broadview, we engaged in confidential discussions with several companies regarding an acquisition of NetObjects. None of those discussions ultimately led to an agreement, however.
5
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On June 13, 2001, the Nasdaq Stock Market sent us a letter advising that on June 20, 2001 our common stock would be delisted from the National Market System because the trading price of our common stock had not met the minimum bid price requirement of at least $1.00 per share required by Nasdaq for listing on the National Market System. We submitted a timely appeal and requested a hearing before a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel. At the hearing which was held on July 26, 2001, we presented our reasons why we believed the common stock should not be delisted from the National Market System, including our proposal to effect a reverse stock split in an effort to bring our minimum bid price per share up to the minimum bid price requirement. On August 29, 2001, the Nasdaq Stock Market notified us that our appeal had been rejected. Our common stock was delisted automatically and our shares began trading on the OTC Bulletin Board.
As of the conclusion of the third quarter of our 2001 fiscal year on June 30, 2001, our current liabilities, totaling $7.8 million, exceeded our current assets, totaling $6.6 million. Our cash and cash equivalents totaled $4.4 million. Although management took a number of substantial steps to decrease expenses and raise capital, we did not have sufficient cash to continue operation much beyond the end of our fiscal year on September 30, 2001. In addition, our independent auditors advised us that, without substantial additional capital, or a commitment to provide such capital, our financial statements would be subject to a "going concern" qualification. Based on our limited amount of cash, management and our board of directors determined that it was necessary to curtail all operations and lay off all remaining employees effective August 31, 2001. Executive officers also resigned. Mr. Ernie Cicogna was appointed Liquidation Manager and retained as an independent contractor with instructions to retain a minimal staff of independent contractors and to liquidate the Company's assets and settle with creditors as expeditiously as possible.
On September 11, 2001, we filed a Form 15 with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, to deregister our common stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As a result, our obligation to file periodic reports, including our quarterly and annual reports, has been suspended immediately and the OTC Bulletin Board has ended trading in our common stock. The deregistration is expected to become effective on December 10, 2001, unless the SEC permits us to deregister sooner. The Board of Directors considered the number of stockholders of record, the stock's trading volume and our financial condition as three relevant factors in making this decision. In addition, deregistration will result in significant time and cost savings.
On September 10, 2001 and September 19, 2001, respectively, we entered into nonexclusive license agreements for the use of the GoBizGo software with two different companies. On October 10, 2001, we sold 11 patents and two pending patent applications to Macromedia, Inc. for $1 million. As part of the transaction, Macromedia, Inc. agreed to grant a perpetual nonexclusive license for these patents to the purchaser of the Small Business division.
We expect most, if not all, of the proceeds from these transactions and the sale of the Small Business division will be used to pay current and certain ongoing expenses and existing creditors of the Company. At present, we do not believe that there will be any funds available for distribution to stockholders after the Company's business has been wound up and its creditors have been paid the amount the Company believes to be due and payable.

DESCRIPTION OF THE SALE OF THE SMALL BUSINESS DIVISION.
Terms of the Definitive Agreement
Assets to be Sold
The assets being sold or licensed or otherwise transferred to Website Pros as part of the sale of our Small Business division are located at our facility in Redwood City, California and constitute substantially all of the assets of the Company, referred to as the "Specified Assets."

Consideration
In exchange for the sale and license of the purchased assets of the Small Business division described above, we are entitled to receive $600,000 in cash at the Closing and quarterly payments based upon license fee and service revenues generated during the three-year period from the date of the Closing as follows:
