Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration:

Personal, retirement fund, and corporate funds of the individuals involved. All transactions were open market transactions and the new approximate amount utilized was $265,947.37 for the total amount of 345,630 shares.


Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

State the purpose or purposes of the acquisition of securities of the issuer. Describe any plans or proposals which the reporting persons may have which relate to or would result in:

The above described net purchases of common shares of SEEC, Inc. (SEEC) were made for investment purposes. Per SEEC press release dated October 29, 2002, SEEC balance sheet of September 30, 2002 "included cash and short-term investments of $12 million, or the equivalent of $1.97 per outstanding share of SEEC stock. The Whitakers believe that the cash position is excessive and are terribly discouraged with the most recent quarterly loss of $958,281 pre-interest credit on measly sales of only $869,127.

The Whitakers believe recent market conditions are inefficient and are substantially discounting the true value of SEEC. In addition to the discount from stated cash value, the marketplace is giving a negative value on the SEEC software solutions business which we feel would be more valuable under the umbrella of a larger entity given their proven products and industry respect. 

The Whitakers have been encouraged by recent implementations of cost reductions. The Whitakers intend at this time to encourage management in maximizing shareholder value which may or may not include company sponsored share repurchases, a self tender, distributions of excess cash, and/or the liquidation or sale of the entire company. We further intend to discourage any entries in new corporate ventures. 

While management evaluates its various strategic alternatives, an immediate Dutch tender for 3,000,000 shares in the $1.35 - $ 1.45 range would provide shareholders the opportunity to either participate in the tender or remain shareholders. The remaining shareholders would benefit from the purchase of shares by the company at below book value prices. 
          
The Whitakers may in the future determine to purchase additional securities of SEEC, Inc., or dispose of some or all of the securities they presently own, depending upon price, market conditions, availability of funds and other considerations. 

  ;        See Item 3. This party has no plans or proposals which relates to or would result in any action specified in clauses (a) through (h) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
