Item 5. Other Events

     On December 5, 2000,  pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement  ("Agreement')
dated  November 28, 2000,  AremisSoft  Corporation  ("AremisSoft"),  through its
wholly  owned  subsidiary  AremisSoft  (E.E.  M.E.  A.),  a Cyprus  corporation,
acquired  all of the  outstanding  capital  stock of e-ChaRM  Pvt Ltd,  an India
corporation  ("e-ChaRM").  As a result of the acquisition,  e-ChaRM has become a
wholly-owned subsidiary of AremisSoft.

     Under  the  terms  of  the  Agreement,   AremisSoft  acquired  all  of  the
outstanding  shares of e-ChaRM for  approximately  $10.9  million in an all cash
transaction. AremisSoft funded the acquisition utilizing working capital. A copy
of the  Agreement is included  herein as Exhibit  10.28 and is  incorporated  by
reference  into this  Item 5. The  foregoing  description  is  qualified  in its
entirety by reference to the exhibit.

     The consideration  paid by AremisSoft for the outstanding  capital stock of
e-ChaRM pursuant to the Agreement was determined through  negotiations that took
into account various factors concerning the business of e-ChaRM including, among
other things, the market value of comparable companies.

     e-ChaRM is a supplier of web based  Customer  Relationship  Management  and
Hospital  Management Systems software,  applications and services.  Through this
acquisition,  AremisSoft  intends to combine e- ChaRM technology and application
skills with  AremisSoft's  enterprise  applications to help enable AremisSoft to
offer a broader array of products and services. The principal offices of e-ChaRM
are located in India.

     On December 19, 2000, AremisSoft completed the acquisition of the
lodging and international  hospitality  businesses of Eltrax  Hospitality Group,
Inc.,  a Delaware  Company  ("Eltrax  Hospitality")  and a  subsidiary  of Verso
Technologies,   Inc.  (formerly  Eltrax  Systems,  Inc.).  The  acquisition  was
completed with the closings of the transactions with Eltrax  Hospitality's  Hong
Kong and Singapore subsidiaries,  the last of eight international  transactions.
Through a purchase of assets and  assumption of certain  liabilities  AremisSoft
acquired the lodging and  hospitality  businesses of Eltrax  Hospitality  in the
United  States,  Norway,  Australia,   Switzerland,  United  Kingdom,  Malaysia,
Belgium,  Hong Kong and Singapore.  AremisSoft acquired these businesses for $10
million in an all cash transaction.
