Item 8.01 Other Events.
     As previously reported, on April 29, 2009, i2 Technologies, Inc. (“i2”), which was acquired by JDA Software Group, Inc. (the “Company”) on January 28, 2010, filed a lawsuit against Oracle Corporation in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, alleging infringement of i2 patents related to supply chain management, available to promise software and other enterprise applications. On April 22, 2010, Oracle Corporation filed counterclaims against i2 and the Company (of which i2 is now a wholly-owned subsidiary), alleging infringement of certain Oracle Corporation patents.
     On February 25, 2011, the Company, i2 and Oracle Corporation entered into a settlement agreement (the “Agreement”). Under the Agreement, the parties entered into a cross-license arrangement and dismissed their respective litigation claims related to the patent infringement dispute with prejudice. In addition, the Company is entitled to receive a one-time cash payment of $35,000,000 from Oracle Corporation, payable within seven days of the Agreement date, as well as a $2,500,000 license and technical support credit from Oracle Corporation that must be used by the Company within two years.
