ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

         On February 5, 2001, JDA Software Group, Inc. ("JDA") completed the
acquisition of certain assets of Zapotec Software, Inc. ("Zapotec") for
$1,250,000 million in cash, and assumed certain trade and other liabilities and
specific acquisition related liabilities for consulting and maintenance
commitments under assumed contracts. Zapotec's primary product, ProMax, is an
integrated software solution that enables retailers, suppliers and distributors
to manage their trade allowance and promotional programs by automating the
contract fulfillment, claim generation and accounts receivable process.

         In addition to ProMax, JDA acquired Zapotec's Ad Plan application.
Currently in development, Ad Plan is designed to be a vertical Web portal that
will integrate advertising and promotional planning and enable collaborative
budgeting, secondary research, media buying merchandise content and trade
allowance tracking among a community of resellers, suppliers, advertising
agencies and media companies.

         The purchase price was determined through arms-length negotiations
between the parties and was paid from JDA's immediately available cash funds.
JDA paid $804,335 of the purchase price at closing and withheld the remaining
$445,665, pursuant to the terms of the agreement, pending Zapotec's satisfaction
of certain indemnification, payroll-related and third-party contractual
obligations. Prior to the acquisition, there were no material relationships
between JDA and Zapotec, nor any of their officers, directors, or affiliates.
The acquisition will be accounted for as a purchase.
