Solaris - Filter columns in text file and adding new column

Hello,
I am very now to this, hope you can help,
I am looking into editing a file in Solaris, with dinamic collums (lenght varies) and I need 2 things to be made, the fist is to filter the first column and third column from the file bellow file.txt, and create a new file with the 2 filtered collums, plus a third column with a value (0, 1 or 2) depending on the values of the second collum (0 for values 0-10, 1 for values 11-100, and 2 for values above 100)
EXAMPLE:
ORIGINAL FILE:
Code:
EH.ERROR.ADB_INSERT --------- 5* 0 11 0.0 Kb
EH.ERROR.ADB_UPDATE --------- 5* 0 0 0.0 Kb
ERP.SAP-PI.bpmMensagemSMS.EH ---+----- 5* 0 234 0.0 Kb
ERRORHANDLER.UI.CFG.POLICY.REQUEST ---+----- 5* 0 1000 0.0 Kb

RESULT FILE:
Code:
EH.ERROR.ADB_INSERT 11 1
EH.ERROR.ADB_UPDATE 0 0
ERP.SAP-PI.bpmMensagemSMS.EH 234 2
ERRORHANDLER.UI.CFG.POLICY.REQUEST 1000 2

NOTE: Collumns are alligned in original file, here in fórum they got out of place

---------- Post updated at 12:02 PM ---------- Previous update was at 11:59 AM ----------

As preiously stated, in original file collumns are alligned.
In bold the values to filter:
EH.ERROR.ADB_INSERT --------- 5* 0 11 0.0 Kb

Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too. -c, --no-create do not create any files -o, --io-blocks Treat SIZE as number of IO blocks instead of bytes -r, --reference=FILE use this FILE's size -s, --size=SIZE use this SIZE --help display this help and exit --version output version information and exit SIZE is a number which may be followed by one of the following suffixes: KB 1000, K 1024, MB 1000*1000, M 1024*1024, and so on for G, T, P, E, Z, Y. SIZE may also be prefixed by one of the following modifying characters: `+' extend by, `-' reduce by, `<' at most, `>' at least, `/' round down to multiple of, `%' round up to multiple of. Note that the -r and -s options are mutually exclusive. AUTHOR
