Item 5.   Other Events.

          Eagle Point Software Corporation (the "Company") has entered into an
Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of July 12, 2001 (the "Merger Agreement")
with JB Acquisitions LLC ("JB Acquisitions") and Talon Acquisition Corp., a
wholly-owned subsidiary of JB Acquisitions ("Talon"), that provides for the
merger (the "Merger") of Talon with and into the Company.  Following the Merger,
the separate corporate existence of Talon will cease and the Company will
continue as the surviving corporation.  JB Acquisitions is a newly organized
corporation formed by John F. Biver, a founder and current director of the
Company, for the purpose of entering into the Merger Agreement and engaging in
the transactions contemplated thereby.

          Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, each share of the
Company's common stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger, other than
shares owned directly or indirectly by JB Acquisitions, will be converted into
the right to receive $6.40 per share in cash, except that 78,125 shares held by
Rodney L. Blum (a current director and former executive officer of the Company)
and 39,062.5 shares held by Dennis J. George (a current director and Chief
Financial Officer of the Company) will be converted into the right to receive 7-
year subordinated promissory notes from the Company in the principal amount of
$6.40 per share acquired.  The Company's obligations under the notes will be
guaranteed by Mr. Biver and his spouse.  In addition, JB Acquisitions, Talon and
Digital Canal Corporation, an entity formed by Mr. Blum, have entered into a
definitive agreement providing for the purchase by Digital Canal of the
operating assets of the Company's Building Design and Construction Division and
its Structural Division for a cash purchase price of approximately $1.1 million.

          Prior to its execution, the Merger Agreement was approved by the
Company's Board of Directors (with Mr. Biver and Mr. Blum not participating),
based upon the unanimous recommendation of a special committee of its
independent directors.  The consummation of the merger is subject to certain
conditions, including regulatory approvals, the approval of the Company's
stockholders, the simultaneous consummation of the transactions contemplated by
the agreement between JB Acquisitions, Talon and Digital Canal and the receipt
by JB Acquisitions of certain necessary financing.

          Copies of the Merger Agreement and the Company's press release issued
on July 12, 2001 with respect to the Merger Agreement and the transactions
contemplated thereby are attached hereto as Exhibits 2 and 20, respectively and
each is incorporated herein by reference.
