            BACKGROUND OF THE DECISION TO OPPOSE THE PROPOSED MERGER

During the 10+ year history of ATG, members of the MWTG Group have worked with
ATG's customers and worked in industry implementing solutions on the ATG
platform. Most recently, a group advised by MWTG has become one of ATG's largest
stockholders. We strongly believe in the Company's greatest assets - its
customer base, strong product innovations and high customer loyalty - and we
believe these assets should be protected and profitably enhanced.

We have always had enormous respect for ATG, for the outstanding achievements of
its employees and for the culture of innovation and integrity that has
contributed to its success. As a stockholder of ATG, we believe that the ATG
board owes a duty to pursue stockholder value and to guide ATG to profitable
growth for the benefit of its stockholders. Our decision to solicit your proxy
is entirely motivated by what we believe is in the best interests of
stockholders from a financial perspective.

We began accumulating a position in the stock of the Company in November 2003.
As the value of the stock dropped from $1.52 per share on November 17, 2003, to
$1.13 on May 10, 2004, a 12 month low, MWTG began re-evaluating ATG and its
position in ATG's stock. MWTG completed its evaluation in mid-June and concluded
that the intrinsic value of ATG remained sound and that the decline in stock
price represented the market's lack of confidence in ATG's management and board.
We viewed this as an opportunity to acquire a significant position in the stock
of the Company in order to work with its board and management to create
significant value for stockholders.

On August 4, 2004, MWTG met with Mr. Edward Terino and Ms. Patricia Gilligan.
MWTG requested the meeting in the normal course of its due diligence in
gathering additional background on the Company and its management, operating
plan and financial condition. The discussions concerned ATG's independent
operations, and no pending transactions, including the proposed merger with
Primus, were discussed. In the meeting MWTG learned what it considered to be
three critical items: first, management shared MWTG's concern that the company
needed to produce profitable operations; second, MWTG learned that management
considered $30 million the minimum cash balance necessary to assure customers of
ATG's viability as a going concern; third, the planned operating expenses for
the remainder of 2004 required the Company to grow revenue by more than 25% to
achieve break even operations for 2004. In the meeting, MWTG offered its
recommendations on how ATG could achieve profitable operations by making modest
reductions in personnel expenses and more significant reductions in
non-personnel operating expenses. MWTG asked management to schedule a meeting
with Robert Burke, the Company's chief executive officer, and the board so we
could inquire about (i) the lack of direction to run the Company profitably and
(ii) better understand the board's concern for the cash position of the Company.

On August 10, 2004, we learned of the proposed merger with Primus from the
Company's press release announcing the proposed transaction. For the six weeks
following the announcement, through phone calls, letters, and a meeting with a
sub-committee of ATG's Board, we carefully considered the merits of the proposed
transaction. During these phone calls and meetings and in our letters, we voiced
our concerns to the ATG board about the need to produce a plan that exhibited
profitable operations, whether independent or combined with Primus. These
concerns were, and still are, focused on our belief that the proposed merger,
under the plan presented by management, will permanently destroy stockholder
value.

On August 11, 2004, the Company conducted a conference call with Mr. Brochu, the
Chief Executive Officer of Primus. On the call, ATG's management made three
statements that we believe to be critical: first, ATG's management saw only
$10-$15M in cost synergies in connection with the proposed merger; second, ATG's
management reiterated the importance of the $30 million cash balance, indicating
that they would be entering 2005 with a minimum of $30 million in cash; and
third, that the proposed merger would return ATG to profitability in the first
half of 2005 and for the full year for 2005.

On August 13, 2004, MWTG met with Mr. Burke. In the meeting MWTG discussed the
information from our August 4, 2004 meeting with the key senior managers
reporting to Mr. Burke. We also discussed the merger announcement. The purpose
for the meeting was to (i) meet Mr. Burke, (ii) hear his vision for the company,
(iii) hear his vision for the merger and the combined company operations, and
(iv) validate the information from the August 4, 2004 meeting. In the meeting
Mr. Burke presented the vision for ATG and the combined operations in line with
his public statements on the merger. He also reiterated the cost synergy
guidance of $10-$15 million. Finally, Mr. Burke confirmed that he deemed it

                                      -1-



critical that the Company maintain a cash balance of approximately $30 million
in order to give customers confidence in buying ATG's solutions. MWTG indicated
that, while we had an open mind about the merger agreement, we were concerned
that the plan for the merged companies did not justify the increased financial
and operating risk versus running ATG profitably as a stand alone entity.
Further, we requested that Mr. Burke schedule an opportunity for MWTG to present
its ideas and proposals to the board. Mr. Burke recommended that we prepare our
request for his attention and that he would take the appropriate action.

On August 18, 2004, MWTG sent its proposal by letter to Mr. Burke and requested
the board reply to the proposal by Friday, August 20, 2004. In the proposal,
MWTG requested the Company to (i) commit to greater cost reductions in its
operating plan and (ii) to make certain changes in corporate governance to make
the Company and Board more accountable to stockholders. MWTG also stated that
absent the Company working with MWTG to create a mutually acceptable solution
that MWTG could not support the proposed merger as presented by management. A
copy of the letter containing the proposal was included with the Schedule 13D of
the MWTG Group and persons advised by MWTG filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on August 24, 2004.

On August 23, 2004, Paul Shorthose, the Company's Chairman, responded to our
proposal by letter indicating that once he concluded that MWTG actually
represented the level of stockholder ownership stated in its letter dated August
18, 2004, he would discuss the matter with the board to determine an appropriate
response.

On August 24, 2004, the MWTG Group and persons advised by MWTG filed their
Schedule 13D with the SEC disclosing that the group beneficially owned 5.5% of
outstanding shares of the Company and summarizing the elements of our August 18
letter to the board indicating that the members of the group were concerned with
the proposed merger with Primus.

On August 24, 2004, MWTG sent a letter to Mr. Shorthose providing him a copy of
the Schedule 13D filing MWTG made on August 24, 2004 and again requested an
opportunity to meet with the board to (i) present our plan and (ii) to discuss a
solution that would enhance stockholder value by creating a profitable business
which would enable us to vote for the merger agreement.

On Thursday, September 9, 2004, MWTG met with Mr. Shorthose, and David Elsbree
and Phyllis Swersky, also directors of the Company, and presented its analysis
of the merger. In addition, the directors and MWTG discussed the principles the
board used to guide management in its financial and operating plan for prior
reporting periods, for independent operations in 2004, and for the merged
companies.

On Friday, September 10, 2004, the MWTG Group and persons advised by MWTG filed
an amendment to their Schedule 13D to disclose that (i) the group had increased
its ownership percentage in the Company to 5.7% and (ii) MWTG continued to
evaluate the merger. Furthermore MWTG stated that "If, based on such evaluation,
MWTG concludes that the proposed merger is not in the best interests of the
stockholders of the Company, MWTG may determine to solicit proxies against the
proposed merger at the special meeting of stockholders called by the board of
directors for that purpose."

On Thursday, September 16, 2004, Mr Shorthose extended an offer by letter, to
MWTG to execute a confidentiality and stand still agreement in order for the
Company to present material, non-public information to MWTG about the Company's
operating plan and merger plan. On Friday, September 17, 2004, MWTG spoke to Mr.
Shorthose by telephone and discussed the terms under which MWTG could execute
such an agreement, which were the same as those previously stated by MWTG under
which it could support the proposed merger.

On Monday, September 20, 2004, the MWTG Group and persons advised by MWTG filed
an amendment to their Schedule 13D declaring that after detailed analysis,
discussions with the Company's management and directors, and much thought and
deliberation, MWTG cannot support the proposed merger of the Company with Primus
as it is currently proposed and that it believes management's plan to operate
the combined business fails to justify the significantly increased operational
and financial risk to stockholders that the merger presents.

On Monday, September 20, 2004, Mr. Shorthose called MWTG to state he did not yet
have a form of confidentiality and stand still agreement for MWTG to review, but
would provide such by the end of the day on Tuesday, September 21, 2004.

                                      -2-



In the early evening of Tuesday, September 21, 2004, Mr. Shorthose provided MWTG
with an electronic copy of the Company's proposed confidentiality and standstill
agreement, which did not satisfy the terms under which MWTG stated it could
execute such an agreement.

We remain determined to stop the proposed merger from being implemented under
the plan presented by ATG's management. Our opposition is based on our
commitment to stockholder value and our belief, which we believe is shared by
many other stockholders, that the proposed merger, under the plan management has
proposed, is not in the best interests of ATG's stockholders. To that end, we
are soliciting your proxy to vote AGAINST the proposed merger.

                   REASONS TO VOTE AGAINST THE PROPOSED MERGER

The following is a summary of what we believe to be the consequences of the
proposed merger. They are the primary reasons why we believe stockholders should
vote AGAINST the issuance of shares of ATG common stock in connection with the
proposed merger. WE URGE YOU TO DEMONSTRATE YOUR OPPOSITION AND SEND A MESSAGE
TO THE ATG BOARD BY SIGNING, DATING AND RETURNING THE ENCLOSED BLUE PROXY CARD
AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ATG'S FINANCIAL POSITION WILL DETERIORATE. In our opinion, neither ATG nor
Primus has demonstrated a management culture or commitment to profitability. The
proposed merger combines two companies with a history of losses. The combination
creates an entity with merely the possibility of greater revenue but with the
CERTAINTY of increased operating expenses. Should the additional revenue
expected by management from the merger fail to materialize or the full level of
cost reductions not be implemented, ATG's cash balance would quickly erode to a
level well below the $30 million cash level cited by management as a critical
threshold.

ATG'S STRATEGIC POSITION WILL NOT MATERIALLY IMPROVE. While the proposed merger
would enhance ATG's product portfolio, ATG would still be a software company
with less than $100 million of revenue on an enterprise basis. ATG would still
lack the size and breadth of offering required to be truly competitive in the
software industry. In addition, the weak financial position that we believe
would result from the merger would limit ATG's strategic options in the future.

THE INTEGRATION RISK OF THE PROPOSED MERGER IS SUBSTANTIAL. We believe that the
odds are against the success of this merger given management's post-merger
operating plan. The complexity of putting two companies together, in a difficult
economy, when each company is unable to consistently produce profits, presents
daunting and unacceptable challenges.

THE FINANCIAL IMPACT ON ATG STOCKHOLDERS WILL BE NEGATIVE. Management has asked
shareholders to accept tremendous risk by approving the merger agreement
without, in our opinion, providing an action plan that would produce financial
results to justify the additional financial risk, operating risk and dilution
that would result from the merger.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ATG has several valuable assets - its customer base, strong product innovations,
and high customer loyalty. We believe these assets should be protected and
profitably enhanced. The company faces challenges in managing its business, but
these challenges were known before this transaction, and management needs to
focus all of its attention on resolving them.

WE PROFOUNDLY DISAGREE, HOWEVER, WITH MANAGEMENT'S ASSERTION THAT ATG NEEDS TO
MAKE THIS ACQUISITION. TO UNDERTAKE THE PROPOSED MERGER UNDER THE CURRENTLY
PROPOSED PLAN IS TO WAGER THAT MANAGEMENT CAN GROW REVENUE IN TIME TO COVER THE
COMPANY'S COST STRUCTURE . WE HAVE SEEN LITTLE IN ATG'S MANAGEMENT'S EXPERIENCE
THAT LEADS US TO BELIEVE THAT THIS IS POSSIBLE. INSTEAD, WE BELIEVE THAT THE
PROPOSED MERGER DETERIORATES THE FINANCIAL POSITION OF ATG AND DOES NOT SOLVE
KEY STRATEGIC PROBLEMS. IT CREATES IMMEDIATE RISK AND INTERMEDIATE-TERM
INCREMENTAL CHALLENGES, AND WE BELIEVE IT COMES AT A HIGH PRICE TO ATG
STOCKHOLDERS.

We do not believe that ATG should stand still. On the contrary, we believe that
ATG would benefit greatly from enhancing its product portfolio and proliferating
those products across its installed base. However, for any small software

                                      -3-



company to survive it must be strong - and that means it must be profitable. We
would prefer ATG focus on becoming profitable by aligning costs with realized
revenue and investing in additional operating costs only as the revenue demands
it. We believe that profitable operations would improve customers' attitudes
towards ATG, bolster the stock price and put ATG in control of its future.

ATG'S FINANCIAL POSITION WILL DETERIORATE.

We believe that neither ATG nor Primus has demonstrated a management culture or
commitment to profitability. The proposed merger combines two companies with a
history of losses.

We encourage all shareholders to carefully review the performance of ATG under
current management. Under current management, ATG has experienced (i)
consistently unprofitable operations, (ii) a steady decline in license and
maintenance revenues, (iii) significant cash balance erosion, and (iv) staffing
levels and non-personnel expenditures significantly out of line with the revenue
of the business. During the previous ten quarters, ATG and Primus have combined
to burn over $50 million in cash including $5.9 million in the most recent
quarter.

PROTECTING THE BALANCE SHEET

ATG's enterprise customers embed the ATG product into their business processes,
often layering additional software and technologies onto the ATG platform. This
is an incredible strength of ATG because as its customers develop much of their
business on or around ATG's products, the difficulty involved in switching from
ATG to a competitor can be tremendous. Enterprise customers recognize this
characteristic and therefore perform extensive diligence on the provider,
including a financial review to ensure that the provider is a financially viable
company that will continue to operate, update and support its technologies far
into the future. In a meeting between MWTG and ATG's management, management
stated that they believed that the minimum cash required to provide the
necessary assurances of the company's viability to customers is $30 million. We
agree: in our opinion, a $30 million cash balance is the minimum cash necessary
to demonstrate to both existing and prospective customers that ATG has the
financial reserves to weather unforeseen events which could negatively impact
ATG's financial state so that it could continue to support its products.

WE BELIEVE ATG'S BALANCE SHEET IS CURRENTLY IN A PRECARIOUS POSITION WHICH WILL
ONLY DETERIORATE IF THE MERGER OCCURS UNDER MANAGEMENT'S PROPOSED PLAN. In a
press release issued on July 22, 2004, ATG stated that its balance of cash, cash

                                      -4-



equivalents and marketable securities would dip to a range of $28 million to $30
million by September 30, 2004. During ATG's conference call regarding the merger
on August 11, 2004, Mr. Terino, the company's Chief Financial Officer, stated
that "The cash position, as of June 30, between the two companies was about $41
million. We would expect to enter 2005 with something north of $30 million." In
fact, in the joint proxy statement/prospectus of ATG and Primus contained in the
Form S-4 filed by ATG on September 22, 2004, ATG stated that as of Aug 31, 2004,
it had only $27.9 million in cash, including cash equivalents and marketable
securities. By permitting cash to fall below $30 million, we believe that
management is jeopardizing the company's ability to generate top line growth and
is neglecting its balance sheet.

In order to assess the impact on ATG's cash reserves due to the proposed merger
and associated operating plan, we developed the following cash balance analysis
to provide us insight into potential outcomes. In preparing our analysis, we
have made certain assumptions which we believe to be both reasonable and
realistic, but it is likely that ATG's management has and will continue to use
different assumptions in forecasting its financial performance, and in any
event, ATG's actual results will likely differ as our analysis is only an
estimate.

       (1)  For purposes of our analysis, we have estimated the cash burn
            rate for each of ATG and Primus for the third quarter 2004 to be
            42.5% of their actual cash burn rates for the first six months of
            2004, because we have assumed that the third quarter 2004 cash burn
            will not be as severe due to increased management attention to cash
            burn following the merger.
       (2)  We have estimated the cash burn rate for each of ATG and Primus
            for the fourth quarter 2004 to be only 32.5% of the actual burn
            rates for the first six months of 2004, because we have assumed that
            the rate will continue to improve in the fourth quarter due to
            increased management attention to cash burn following the merger.
       (3)  This represents the low end of the cash transaction expense
            range estimated by ATG in its August 11, 2004 conference call
            regarding the proposed merger.

Our analysis indicates that ATG's cash balance may drop further below the $30
million threshold that we believe is critical for the company. Should challenges
arise during third or fourth quarters of 2004 that reduce revenue, impede cost
reductions or push transaction costs to the high end of the range estimated by
management ($7 million), the additional depletion of the cash balance may cause
customers or prospective customers to question the viability of ATG. Uncertainty
regarding ATG's ability to continue as a going concern would jeopardize top line
growth and profitability, and threaten the continued existence of company.

However, our analysis is based on estimates and assumptions, which although we
believe to be reasonable, may differ from the estimates and assumptions used by
management or by other stockholders in evaluating the financial position of the
company and will likely differ from actual results. Therefore, we encourage each
stockholder to review closely the financial information made available by ATG

                                      -5-



and to consider for themselves the impact of the proposed merger on ATG's level
of cash reserves.

COST STRUCTURE

The operating plan for the combined companies post merger does not properly
align expenses with revenue thereby increasing the financial risk of the merger.

ATG HAS HISTORICALLY BEEN UNABLE TO ALIGN ITS EXPENSES WITH REALIZED REVENUE.
ATG's revenues have fluctuated from quarter to quarter in the past and are
likely to vary significantly quarter to quarter in the future. Because of these
fluctuations, it is important that expenses be managed closely to minimize
losses. However, ATG has had difficulty achieving the proper mix of revenue and
expenses to provide consistent profits. Instead of reducing expenses to match
realistic expectations of revenue in order to generate profits, the proposed
post-merger operating plan requires revenue growth to support the cost
structure. This has been the approach to the cost structure at ATG for sometime.
For example, during the second quarter 2004 ATG earnings conference call on July
22, 2004, when questioned by an analyst regarding the appropriateness of making
cost reductions in sales and marketing, Robert. Burke, ATG's chief executive
officer, responded: "... our track that we are on right now is to lower it as a
percent of overall revenues by increasing revenues." We believe that this
strategy cannot be successful over a long period of time without severe dilution
to shareholders

The philosophy of growing revenue to support the cost structure is a key element
of the proposed merger. In management's opinion, as reflected in its forecasts,
the combined companies will experience revenue growth in the first quarter of
2005 that will in turn support the cost structure and make the company
profitable. However, if the forecasted revenue fails to materialize, the company
will use more cash, further aggravating the cash balance issue discussed earlier
and threatening the viability of the company. To attempt to understand the risk
the shareholders are taking under that philosophy, management forecasts must be
reconciled with realized results, and analysis of earnings calls and press
releases regarding company guidance on revenue, expenses and cash balances shows
that there is a high degree of error in those forecasts.

ATG quarterly guidance on revenue has been inaccurate three out of the last four
quarters. Full year guidance has been inaccurate as well:

On January 24, 2002, management guided toward full year revenue of $130 million
to $140 million for 2002 and profitability in the second half of 2002. On April
25, 2002, management guided downward to full year revenue of $105 million to
$120 million for 2002 and reiterated its guidance towards profitability in the
second half of 2002. On July 25, 2002, in its second quarter earnings call,
management revised its forecast to full year revenue of $110 million to $130
million for 2002 and reiterated its guidance towards profitability in the second
half of 2002.

2002 full year actual revenue was only $101.5 million - 22% below initial
guidance and 7% below the revised guidance. The second half of 2002 also
produced a loss of $24.8 million - $24.8 million less than guidance

On Mar 28, 2003, in its annual report to shareholders, ATG's management stated
that:

o    "We expect total revenues to decrease slightly in 2003"
o    "We expect that sales and marketing expenses in 2003 will be in the range
     of 38% to 41% as a percentage of total revenues."
o    "[W]e anticipate that general and administrative expenses will trend
     slightly lower as a percentage of total revenues and in absolute dollars in
     2003.."

2003 full year revenue was only $72.5 million - 28.6% below 2002 revenue. Sales
and marketing expenses were 43% of revenue - almost 5% greater than forecasted
as a percentage of revenue. General and administrative expenses were 13% of
revenue - over 18% higher than forecasted as a percentage of revenue

                         revenues
------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------



On March 15, 2004 in its annual report to shareholders, management stated:

o    "We expect total revenues to increase in 2004 as we launch new products..."
o    "We expect that sales and marketing expenses in 2004 will be in the range
     of 37% to 40% as a percentage of total revenues."

For the first 6 months of 2004 revenue was $31.1 million. Even assuming 15%
growth quarter over quarter in both the third and fourth quarters, 2004 revenue
will still fall short of 2003 revenue. Sales and marketing expenses were over
46% as a percentage of revenue through the first 6 months of 2004.

ATG guidance on full year results has proved incorrect the last two years, and
we believe it is unlikely that ATG will meet the 2004 guidance it provided
earlier in 2004. We understand that forecasts are merely estimates, and we do
not have expectations of 100% accuracy. However, management has made the
forecasts more serious and important because ATG's cost structure is based on
these forecasts instead of the actual revenue being generated by the company.

During the August 11, 2004 conference call related to the proposed merger, ATG's
management stated that the combined revenue run rate was $90.6 million based on
the prior four quarters and that the combined spending was $26.5 million per
quarter based on the most recent quarter. Management's initial operating budget
post merger targeted spending of $90 million to $95 million once $10 million to
$15 million is cost synergies was realized. Using these assumptions, financial

                                      -7-



performance would have been flat to loss-making. On September 23, 2004, ATG's
management revised its estimate of cost synergies to the range of $15 million to
$17 million. Using revenue for the first 6 months of 2004 and spending for the
same period to calculate the run rate, the combined companies would have an
annual revenue run rate of $85.9 million and spending of $107.2 million
annually. If $15 million to $17 million in cost synergies are then deducted and
$3 million in amortization expense are excluded, we estimate costs will be in
the $85 million to $90 million range for the combined entity -flat to $4.1
million ABOVE revenue. Therefore, to achieve profitability for the combined
companies, significant growth in revenue without additional growth in costs is
required, which we believe puts the company's ability to achieve profitability
at risk.

Management's financial basis for the merger is that the acquired revenue
TOGETHER WITH FORECASTS OF REVENUE GROWTH support the planned expenses. However,
the combination creates an entity with merely the possibility of greater revenue
but with the CERTAINTY of increased operating expenses. Under management's
proposed plan, if the additional revenue fails to materialize or the level of
cost reductions does not meet targets, ATG's net cash balance would quickly
erode to a level well below the $30 million threshold.

Management has consistently been unable to accurately forecast the Company's
revenues. Management and the board cannot expect shareholders to keep waiting
until "next year" for profitable operations. Approving the merger under
management's proposed plan could lead to significant financial stress on the
company. Continued unprofitable operations, as provided for in management's plan
for the merged companies, may cause further balance sheet erosion. Weakening the
balance sheet increases the risk of failing to achieve future revenue targets as
enterprise customers lose confidence in the viability of the company. This
vicious cycle may severely limit the Company's future strategic alternatives. We
believe it is imprudent to take such risks when the cash balance is already in
jeopardy.

ATG'S STRATEGIC POSITION WILL NOT MATERIALLY IMPROVE.

While the proposed merger would enhance ATG's product portfolio, ATG would still
be a software company with less than $100 million of revenue on an enterprise
basis. We believe that at this level ATG would still lack the size and breadth
of offering it requires to be truly competitive in the software industry. In
addition, the weak financial position would limit ATG's strategic options in the
future.

We appreciate that the marriage of ATG's and Primus's technology presents
attractive opportunities, but this will be of little value to shareholders if
the foundation of the underlying operating business remains weak. We encourage
shareholders, in considering the strength of the technology marriage,
particularly as discussed in analyst opinions, to also consider the capability
of the Company's management to run an operationally sound business. If the
combined company cannot operate profitably, then we believe building out the
product portfolio and revenue line with this acquisition fails to add value, it
destroys value.

THE INTEGRATION RISK OF THE PROPOSED MERGER IS SUBSTANTIAL.

We believe that the odds are against the success of this merger given
management's post-merger operating plan. The complexity of putting two companies
together, in a difficult economy, when each company is unable to consistently
produce profits, presents daunting challenges. Management must transition Primus
employees, processes and resources, address the technical integration of the
Primus product, court clients to maintain relationships during the transition,
implement cost cuts, and - most significantly - grow revenue to support the cost
structure. Based on the post-merger operating plan, we believe there is no room
for error because of the already depleted cash balance and the inflated cost
structure.

ATG's management team has no experience or track record at ATG as a successful
acquisition and build-up team. For the integration to be successful, both the
targeted cost synergies and the forecasted revenue must be achieved. This would
be an intimidating task for even a seasoned and experienced management team.
ATG's management team has never worked together on integrating an acquisition of
this type before and we believe that the likelihood of their delivering a
perfect transition is extremely low, causing us serious concern.

                                      -8-



THE FINANCIAL IMPACT ON ATG STOCKHOLDERS WILL BE NEGATIVE.

Management has asked shareholders to accept tremendous risk by approving the
merger agreement without, in our opinion, providing an action plan that would
produce financial results to justify the additional financial risk, operating
risk and dilution that would result from the merger.

WE BELIEVE THE PROPOSED MERGER DOES NOT OFFER AN ATTRACTIVE RETURN ON A
RISK-ADJUSTED BASIS. The proposed merger requires management to spend both time
and talent to transition and integrate Primus while assuring clients and
prospective customers that ATG's and Primus's products and customer service will
not deteriorate, AND, in order to become profitable, grow revenue at the same
time. The merger creates an entity, that relative to ATG alone, is more complex,
has an increased cost structure and threatens the company's already precarious
cash reserves. The aforementioned factors negatively impact the risk profile of
the business, increasing the risks that shareholders must accept without a
commensurate increase in expected return. The change in value on a risk-adjusted
basis destroys value for the current shareholders and will continue to depress
the value of the stock as long as the condition persists.

The risk to the balance sheet and the risk to the business overall are simply
too great in our opinion to justify this merger under management's proposed plan
of operations for the combined companies. In the past, management has been
unable to accurately forecast revenue and depleted the cash balance as a result,
but at the time, the cash balance was well above critical levels. Today, the
cash position is not nearly as robust as it once was. A missed revenue forecast
or an unexpected increase in costs could have devastating consequences for the
company, and therefore we have concluded that the merger is an unacceptable
risk.

                CERTAIN INFORMATION REGARDING THE PROPOSED MERGER

The foregoing description is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by
reference to the full text of the agreement and plan of merger among ATG,
Autobahn Acquisition, Inc. and Primus, dated August 10, 2004, a copy of which is
attached as Annex A to the joint proxy statement/prospectus of ATG and Primus
contained in the Form S-4 filed by ATG on September 22, 2004.

The merger agreement provides for the acquisition of Primus by ATG through the
merger of Autobahn Acquisition, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of ATG, into
Primus. Primus will be the surviving corporation in the merger. If the merger is
approved by the stockholders of ATG and Primus, when the merger is effective,
each outstanding share of Primus common stock would be converted automatically
into a number of shares of ATG common stock, based on the applicable exchange
ratio, as described below. No fractional shares of ATG common stock would be
issued. In lieu of a fractional share, ATG would pay in cash, rounded to the
nearest whole cent, an amount equal to the fraction multiplied by the average
closing price of one share of ATG common stock on the Nasdaq National Market for
the fifteen trading days before the closing of the merger.

The consideration paid to Primus stockholders in the merger, other than cash in
lieu of fractional shares, would consist entirely of shares of ATG common stock.
The aggregate number of shares of ATG common stock actually issued would vary
based upon the applicable exchange ratio, which may change based on changes in
Primus' working capital as described below, and the number of shares of Primus
common stock outstanding at the completion of the merger, which may change
between signing and closing for a number of reasons, including option exercises,
stock repurchases and warrant exercises. The per-share value of ATG common stock
may also change based on changes in its trading price in the same time period.

The exchange ratio, which represents the number of shares of ATG common stock to
be issued in exchange for each share of Primus common stock, would be between
1.4169 and 1.2976. The final exchange ratio will be determined based upon the
amount of Primus' adjusted working capital, as defined in the merger agreement,
immediately prior to the commencement of business on October 15, 2004, which is
the fifth business day prior to the date fixed for the Primus stockholder
meeting. This date is referred to in the merger agreement as the measurement
date.

If Primus' adjusted working capital at the measurement date is positive, or is a
working capital deficiency equal to or lesser in magnitude than $(1.0 million),
the exchange ratio will be 1.4169. If Primus' adjusted working capital at the
measurement date is a working capital deficiency greater in magnitude than $(1.0
million), the merger ratio will be adjusted downward. The amount by which

                                      -9-



Primus' adjusted working capital deficiency exceeds the $(1.0 million) standard
is referred to in the merger agreement as a working capital deficiency. If a
working capital deficiency, as defined in the merger agreement, exists, the
exchange ratio is determined as follows:

     o    If the working capital deficiency is greater than zero and less than
          or equal to $2.5 million, the exchange ratio will be equal to 1.3567;

     o    If the working capital deficiency is greater than $2.5 million, the
          exchange ratio will be equal to 1.3567 minus the product of:

          o    0.0000004328 multiplied by;
          o    the amount by which such working capital deficiency exceeds $2.5
               million.

o    In no event will the exchange ratio be less than 1.2976.

     o    delivering a written notice of revocation to either Innisfree M&A or
          the secretary of ATG; or

     o    logging on to the internet or calling the telephone number on the
          proxy card in the same manner utilized to submit the proxy
          electronically and changing your votes; or

     o    voting in person at the special meeting.

If you hold your shares in street name, you may change your vote by:

     o    submitting new voting instructions to your broker or nominee; or

     o    attending the special meeting and voting in person, provided you have
          obtained a signed proxy from the record holder giving you the right to
          vote your shares.

If you choose to revoke a proxy by giving written notice or a later-dated proxy
to the secretary of ATG, by logging on to the internet or calling the telephone
number on the proxy card in the same manner utilized to submit the proxy
electronically and changing your votes; or by submitting new voting instructions
to your broker or nominee, we would appreciate if you would assist us in
representing the interests of stockholders on an informed basis by sending us a
copy of your revocation, proxy or new voting instructions or by calling
Innisfree M&A at 1-888-___-____. REMEMBER, YOUR LATEST-DATED PROXY IS THE ONLY
ONE THAT COUNTS.

IF I PLAN TO ATTEND THE SPECIAL MEETING, SHOULD I STILL SUBMIT A PROXY?

Whether you plan to attend the special meeting or not, we urge you to submit a
proxy. Returning the enclosed proxy card will not affect your right to attend
the special meeting and vote.

WHO CAN VOTE?

You are eligible to vote or to execute a proxy only if you owned ATG common
stock on the record date for the special meeting, September 9, 2004. Even if you
sell your shares after the record date, you will retain the right to execute a
proxy in connection with the special meeting. It is important that you grant a
proxy regarding shares you held on the record date, or vote those shares in
person, even if you no longer own those shares. Based upon the joint proxy
statement/prospectus of ATG and Primus, on September 9, 2004, the record date
for the special meeting, 73,889,870 shares of ATG common stock were issued and
outstanding, and no shares of ATG preferred stock were issued and outstanding.

HOW MANY VOTES DO I HAVE?

With respect to each matter to be considered at the special meeting, you are
entitled to one vote for each share of ATG common stock owned on the record
date. Based on documents publicly filed by ATG, ATG has no outstanding voting
securities other than its common stock.

HOW WILL MY SHARES BE VOTED?

If you give a proxy on the accompanying BLUE proxy card, your shares will be
voted as you direct. If you submit a signed BLUE proxy to Innisfree M&A without
instructions, your shares will be voted AGAINST the proposal to approve the

                                      -11-



issuance of shares of ATG common stock in connection with the proposed merger.
Submitting a signed BLUE proxy card will also entitle James Dennedy and Richard
Rofe to vote your shares in accordance with their discretion on matters not
described in this proxy statement that properly come before the special meeting
or any adjournment or postponement of the special meeting.

If ATG stockholders holding shares of ATG common stock in street name do not
provide voting instructions, their shares will not be voted and will therefore
be considered broker "non-votes."

Unless a proxy specifies otherwise, it will be presumed to relate to all shares
held of record on the record date by the person who submitted it.

If you give a proxy on the accompanying BLUE proxy card, your shares will be
voted against any proposal to postpone or adjourn the special meeting if such
proposal is made to facilitate the approval of the issuance of additional shares
in connection with the proposed merger.

WHAT IS A QUORUM AND WHY IS IT NECESSARY?

In order to conduct business at the special meeting of stockholders of ATG, a
quorum must be present. A majority of the shares of ATG common stock issued and
outstanding and entitled to vote at the meeting, whether present in person or
represented by proxy, will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business
at the special meeting. ATG will treat shares of ATG common stock represented by
a properly signed and returned proxy or proxy properly submitted electronically
as present at the special meeting for purposes of determining the existence of a
quorum at the meeting. In general, ATG will count abstentions and broker
non-votes as present or represented in determining the existence of a quorum. A
non-vote occurs when a broker or nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner
does not vote on a proposal because the broker or nominee does not have
discretionary voting power for that proposal and has not received instructions
from the beneficial owner with respect to the proposal.

WHAT VOTE IS REQUIRED TO APPROVE EACH PROPOSAL AND HOW WILL VOTES BE COUNTED?

The following description has been taken from the joint proxy
statement/prospectus of ATG and Primus contained in the Form S-4 filed by ATG on
September 22, 2004.

The approval of the issuance of ATG common stock pursuant to the merger and the
other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement and the grant of
authority to adjourn the special meeting will require the affirmative vote of a
majority of the shares properly cast at the special meeting. Abstentions and
broker non-votes will not count as votes cast on these proposals and,
accordingly, will not affect the outcome of the votes on these proposals.

ATG's transfer agent, EquiServe Trust Company, N.A., will tabulate the votes on
each proposal. EquiServe will tabulate the vote on each matter submitted to
stockholders separately.

CAN THE MEETING BE ADJOURNED OR POSTPONED?

ATG stockholders may be asked to vote upon a proposal to adjourn or postpone the
ATG special meeting. Any adjournment or postponement could be for the purpose of
allowing additional time for soliciting votes from ATG stockholders to approve
the issuance of shares of ATG common stock in connection with the proposed
merger or to satisfy other conditions to completion of the proposed merger that
ATG and Primus elect to satisfy prior to seeking a vote of the ATG stockholders
in connection with the proposed merger.

ATG advises in the joint proxy statement/prospectus of ATG and Primus contained
in the Form S-4 filed by ATG on September 22, 2004, that if a quorum is not
present at the special meeting, the special meeting will be adjourned or
postponed to enable the ATG board of directors to solicit additional proxies,
and if a quorum is present but the number of shares voting in favor of the
issuance of the ATG common stock pursuant to the merger and the other
transactions contemplated by the merger agreement is insufficient to approve the
proposal, then, if the adjournment proposal has received the affirmative vote of
a majority of the shares of ATG common stock properly cast on that proposal,
ATG's management will have the discretion to adjourn the special meeting to a
date or dates not later than November 21, 2004 to provide ATG's board of
directors additional time to solicit proxies in favor of the issuance of the ATG
common stock.

                                      -12-



If you give a proxy on the accompanying BLUE proxy card, your shares will be
voted against any proposal to postpone or adjourn the special meeting if such
proposal is made to facilitate the approval of the issuance of additional shares
in connection with the proposed merger.

HOW CAN I RECEIVE MORE INFORMATION?

If you have any questions about giving your proxy or about our solicitation, or
if you require assistance, please call Innisfree M&A at 1-888-___-____.

                               NO APPRAISAL RIGHTS

According to the joint proxy statement/propsectus of ATG and Primus contained in
the Form S-4 filed by ATG on September 22, 2004, holders of ATG common stock are
not entitled to appraisal or dissenters' rights in connection with the
transactions contemplated by the merger agreement or the adjournment proposal.

         securities. Shares of common stock subject to stock options and
         warrants currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days are deemed
         outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any
         group of which the holder is a member, but are not deemed outstanding
