Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

        On November 16, 1999, Pegasus Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation
        ("Pegasus") and its wholly owned subsidiary Pegasus Worldwide, Inc.
        ("PWI") entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger ("Merger
        Agreement") with REZ, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("REZ"), Reed
        Elsevier Inc., a Massachusetts corporation ("Reed Elsevier"), and Utell
        International Group, Ltd., a corporation organized under the laws of
        England and Wales ("Utell"). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, PWI
        agreed to merge with and into REZ, with REZ being the surviving
        corporation ("Merger").

        The Merger was completed on April 3, 2000. REZ will operate as a wholly
        owned subsidiary of Pegasus. The stockholders of REZ, including all REZ
        option holders who have exercised their options within the prescribed
        time period under the Merger Agreement, received the following merger
        consideration on a pro rata basis:

        1)  An aggregate of 3.99 million shares of Pegasus common stock,
            approximately 338,000 shares of which were placed in an
            indemnification escrow account and approximately 123,000 shares of
            which were placed in an escrow account pending the determination of
            post-closing adjustments. The aggregate 3.99 million shares
            constitute 16.4% of the total number of shares of Pegasus common
            stock outstanding at March 31, 2000. No fractional shares will be
            issued. REZ stockholders will receive a cash payment in lieu of any
            fractional shares.

        2)  $95 million in cash, $5.5 million of which is in an indemnification
            escrow account. The original purchase price included $115 million in
            cash and was reduced by the amount of REZ's notes payable
            outstanding and a working capital adjustment.

        3)  $20 million note payable to Utell, in lieu of cash consideration
            otherwise receivable by Utell.

        Pegasus utilized cash provided by operations and cash from the maturity
        of short-term investments to fund the acquisition.

        REZ is a leading provider of marketing and reservation services to the
        hotel industry. The assets acquired primarily include furniture and
        fixtures, computer and communication equipment, leasehold improvements,
        intellectual property, and customer contracts. Pegasus intends to
        continue to utilize the acquired assets in a manner consistent with
        REZ's current operations. Pegasus also intends to utilize the acquired
        assets to support other services offered to the hotel industry by the
        combined company.

        Prior Relationship of Pegasus and REZ

        REZ managed and operated equipment owned by Pegasus at REZ's facilities.
        REZ also provided equipment monitoring services, assurance of power
        supply and communications link back up support for Pegasus. Pegasus
        provided to REZ electronic distribution, commission processing and
        Internet-based distribution services.

        As consideration for a loan made to Pegasus which has since been repaid,
        Pegasus granted to Reed Elsevier, the majority stockholder of REZ, a
        license to use the Ultraswitch technology in connection with operations
        unrelated to the hotel industry. As a part of this licensing
        arrangement, Reed Elsevier agreed to not compete with the services
        provided by Pegasus using the Ultraswitch technology.

        Several REZ directors and executives had previously served on the
        Pegasus board of directors. REZ, its predecessors and several affiliates
        of REZ, own Pegasus common stock.
