Answers to Employee Frequently Asked Questions
JDA Software to Acquire QRS

Introduction

Hamish Brewer, CEO and president of JDA Software Group, and Liz Fetter, CEO of QRS, are pleased to announce today that JDA and QRS have signed a definitive agreement for JDA to acquire QRS. By merging the two companies, JDA will significantly enhance its position in the global field of demand chain solutions providers. The combined company will be uniquely positioned to deliver data rich software, best practice processes, trading community enablement and expert consultants. The combined company will have revenues in excess of $340 million and more than 14,000* retail and manufacturing customers.

Upon the completion of this acquisition, JDA will enter a new era for our company and our customers. By fully integrating QRS, a market leading data and electronic commerce provider, with the market leading JDA Portfolio® software offerings, JDA will create a new, seamless and powerful business model that opens up a world of exciting opportunities for all of our customers. In the future, JDA customers will be able to enhance the power of their JDA software through data rich enablement and deliver substantially improved returns to their businesses.

Both executive leadership teams are committed to communicating as much appropriate information as possible about JDA’s pending acquisition of QRS. With this question and answer document, we have jointly responded to the most common employee questions of any pending acquisition. Our shared goal is for JDA and QRS employees to gain a clear and consistent understanding of why this planned acquisition is a positive development for them as well as our valued customers and shareholders.

SECTION 1: Vision/Business Model

What does this acquisition mean to JDA’s and QRS’ combined customers and future prospects?

• With JDA’s acquisition of QRS, its largest and tenth acquisition to date, JDA will pursue emerging supply chain opportunities for more than 14,000* combined customers in all worldwide sectors of retail and manufacturing. With its distinctly new business model, JDA will build upon the collective JDA Portfolio® and QRS product lines to enable its shared customers to achieve a new level of operational excellence.

• With the combination of JDA and QRS, a new breed of software application will be made available over time to our shared customers. QRS’ retail intelligence services can provide market insights to the combined customers’ pricing, competitive activities, and unique in-store consumer experiences. We will seamlessly combine all this information needed to drive decisions along with the sophisticated software that enables those decisions and calling this phenomenon ‘Data Rich.’ We plan to establish this capability as a defining and differentiating characteristic of the PortfolioEnabled™ solutions over the coming months and years.

• With advancements in RFID and other collaborative initiatives, the industry is heeding the call for increased efficiency and accuracy in the exchange and update of new item information. While QRS is the de facto standard for data synchronization in the U.S. general merchandise and apparel (GMA) industry, JDA sees a huge growth opportunity in other world regions and market segments, in particular food and consumer packaged goods.

• Today’s competitive environment requires interoperability and compliance with shared global standards. JDA’s global resources and extensive client relationships will position the combined company to be the preferred solutions provider for several untapped markets in retail and manufacturing. JDA will seek out these new markets for QRS’ leading electronic product catalogue that features over 100 million unique items, which enables marketers, manufacturers, suppliers and retailers to achieve 100 percent compliance synchronizing the latest product information and automating collaborative processes.

How will this acquisition benefit QRS’ shareholders, customers and employees?

JDA has established a clear market leadership providing innovative technology solutions to almost all sectors of the retail market worldwide. With JDA’s proven track record of successful acquisitions, large and established client base, global reach and commitment to operating profitability, JDA is the right company to help QRS achieve the corporate objectives that it has outlined over the past two and a half years.

During the same time period, JDA has committed significant resources to expanding its collaborative solutions business, and we believe JDA’s vision is closely aligned with QRS’ collaboration solutions roadmap. This acquisition will give QRS shareholders, customers and associates a stake in a powerful company that can lead the industry and more quickly deliver solutions that address global data synchronization and other critical supply chain opportunities.

SECTION 2: Terms of the Transaction

What are the terms of the transaction?

• Under the agreement, QRS will be merged with a wholly-owned subsidiary of JDA.

• QRS stockholders will own approximately 20 percent of the outstanding capital stock of the combined company. Based on the latest closing price of JDA stock, the transaction is valued at approximately $100 million and is expected to be accretive to JDA’s FY 2005 earnings.

• All directors and executive officers of the two companies have signed an agreement to vote in favor of the transaction, which is expected to be tax-free to QRS stockholders.

• Completion of the merger, which is expected to close in the third or fourth quarter of 2004, is subject to the approval of JDA and QRS stockholders, expiration or termination of the applicable Hart-Scott-Rodino waiting periods and other regulatory and customary conditions.

• Citigroup Global Markets Inc. is acting as financial advisor to JDA, and Wachovia Securities is acting as financial advisor to QRS with regard to the transaction.

What happens to QRS employees granted QRS stock options?

JDA will not assume any stock options to purchase shares of QRS’ common stock under the QRS’ stock option plans. Accordingly, under the terms of each QRS stock option plan, all outstanding QRS stock options will accelerate and vest at the closing and become fully exercisable for shares of QRS’ common stock. Any QRS stock options that are not exercised at or before the closing shall terminate and cease to be outstanding at closing in accordance with the terms of each stock option plan.

Further specifics about the mechanics and the timing of the exercise of QRS options will be provided to QRS option holders prior to closing.

SECTION 3: Total Compensation Information and Job Status for QRS Employees

Will compensation and benefits change for QRS employees?

It is our expectation that QRS employees’ existing compensation packages will carry forward for some time, with a goal of harmonizing the compensation program across the combined company. JDA’s compensation plan normally includes a base salary, an incentive component and a limited participation equity program. JDA also has a broad-based benefits program.

JDA regularly reviews market conditions and incentive practices to maintain market competitiveness. This practice will continue under the combined organization.

Page 4

Will all QRS employees retain their jobs?

First, it is “business as usual” at QRS and JDA with everyone handling their daily responsibilities, under normal management practices, until the transaction has received all necessary approvals and is closed. JDA does expect synergies from the combined organization, in particular in the selling, general and administrative infrastructure, and as a result some positions will be eliminated where duplication exists.

SECTION 4: Planned Organizational Structure of Combined Company

Who will be part of the executive leadership team under the combined company?

JDA will welcome these QRS executives to its existing senior management team:

•	James G. Rowley, who currently serves as QRS’ senior vice president, global engineering, support & technology and chief technology officer, will join JDA as senior vice president, operations.
•	Ray Rike, who currently serves as QRS’ senior vice president, worldwide sales and field operations, will join JDA as senior vice president, collaborative solutions.
These executives will join the following JDA executives who currently report directly to Hamish Brewer:
•	Kristen L. Magnuson, executive vice president and chief financial officer
•	Peter Charness, senior vice president, marketing and chief product officer
•	Scott Hines, senior vice president, store systems, and chief technology officer
•	David King, senior vice president, product development
•	Chris Moore, senior vice president, client support services
•	David Tidmarsh, senior vice president, customer success
•	Wayne Usie, senior vice president of the Americas

For more information on JDA’s senior leadership team, please refer to the About JDA section of this document or to www.jda.com.

How will the product direction be determined under the combined company?

JDA plans to establish a Product Strategy Council to steer both organizations’ product sets. JDA has a formal process of determining product direction and content and will be using this process across the combined company’s product sets. The Council will consist of the following:

• Peter Charness, senior vice president, marketing and chief product officer

• Scott Hines, senior vice president, store systems, and chief technology officer

• David King, senior vice president, product development

• James Rowley, senior vice president, operations

Page 5

Where will the Corporate Headquarters of the combined company be located?

The combined company’s headquarters will be in Scottsdale, Arizona at JDA’s current world headquarters. JDA will continue to operate the QRS offices in Richmond, California. JDA will review the other geographic locations of both organizations’ branch offices to determine whether combining operations will optimize service to our mutual customers.

Will QRS employees be required to relocate?

JDA will look at the total combined organization, post-closing, to determine where there is a need for centralized operations. JDA does not see the need to centralize the two product development organizations and as such does not anticipate relocation of those teams from the Richmond, California office.

SECTION 5: What is the JDA Corporate Culture?

What is JDA’s Vision and Mission statement?

JDA’s Customer Value Program is designed to place our customers at the focal point of our business and is based on our Vision, Mission and Guiding Principles, which proclaim the purpose and direction of the company.

JDA Vision

We add value as trusted advisers in guiding our customers toward profound results. We add value through our relationships with our customers, our partners and each other.

In the interim, we will form a communications link between the JDA and QRS executive leadership teams. Please follow the typical communications protocol within your organization to have your questions answered.

SECTION 7: Closing Message

APPENDIX 3: LEGAL LEGENDS

“Safe Harbor” Statement under the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995

This question and answer document contains forward-looking statements that are made in reliance upon the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The forward-looking statements contained herein include statements about the consummation of the pending merger of JDA and QRS, future financial and operating results of the combined company and benefits of the pending merger. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described herein include: (a) JDA’s ability to leverage the QRS products to enable it to further expand its position in the demand chain market; (b) JDA’s ability to successfully integrate and market the QRS products; and (c) both companies’ ability to obtain regulatory approvals. Additional information relating to the uncertainty affecting the businesses of JDA and QRS is contained in the respective filings with the SEC. Neither JDA nor QRS is under any obligation to (and expressly disclaims any such obligation to) update or alter its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

In addition to the specific risks identified in the proceeding paragraph, mergers involve a number of special risks, including diversion of management’s attention to the assimilation of the technology and personnel of acquired businesses, costs related to the merger and the integration of acquired products, technologies and employees into JDA’s business and product offerings. Achieving the anticipated benefits of the pending merger will depend, in part, upon whether the integration of the acquired products, technology, or employees is accomplished in an efficient and effective manner, and there can be no assurance that this will occur. The difficulties of such integration may be increased by the necessity of coordinating geographically disparate organizations, the complexity of the technologies being integrated, and the necessity of integrating personnel with disparate business backgrounds and combining different corporate cultures. The inability of management to successfully integrate the business of the two companies, and any related diversion of management’s attention, could have a material adverse effect on the combined company’s business, operating results and financial condition.

Caution Required by Certain SEC Rules

In connection with the proposed transaction, JDA will file a registration statement on Form S-4, which will include a prospectus of JDA and a joint proxy statement for each of JDA’s and QRS’ special stockholder meetings, with the Securities and Exchange Commission. INVESTORS AND SECURITY HOLDERS ARE ADVISED TO READ THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT, PROSPECTUS AND JOINT PROXY STATEMENT WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROPOSED MERGER. Investors and security holders may obtain a free copy of the registration statement, prospectus and joint proxy statement (when available) and other documents filed by JDA and QRS with the Securities and Exchange Commission at the Securities and Exchange Commission’s web site at http://www.sec.gov. Free copies of the registration statement, prospectus and joint proxy statement (when available) and other documents filed by JDA with the Securities and Exchange Commission may also be obtained from JDA by directing a request to JDA, Attention: G. Michael Bridge, legal counsel, 480-308-3000.
