                              INFORMATION STATEMENT

                           RELATING TO THE SPIN-OFF OF

                      MOMENTUM BUSINESS APPLICATIONS, INC.

                              FROM PEOPLESOFT, INC.

        We are sending you this information statement to describe the
distribution of shares of the Class A Common Stock of Momentum Business
Applications, Inc. to the stockholders of PeopleSoft, Inc. In this distribution,
you will receive one share of Momentum Class A Common Stock for each 50 shares
of PeopleSoft Common Stock owned by you at the close of business on December 31,
1998. Your shares of Momentum Class A Common Stock will be mailed to you on or
about January 15, 1999.

        The distribution will be taxable to you as a dividend. Please read the
information set forth under the caption "Federal Income Tax Considerations"
herein and consult your tax advisor with respect to the income tax consequences
of the distribution to you.

        No PeopleSoft stockholder action is necessary to make the distribution.
You do not need to surrender shares of PeopleSoft Common Stock to receive
Momentum Class A Common Stock in the distribution. The number of shares of
PeopleSoft Common Stock you own will not change as a result of the distribution.
The Momentum Class A Common Stock will be included for quotation on the Nasdaq
National Market under the symbol "MMTM."

        Momentum was formed by PeopleSoft to develop electronic business,
analytic and industry-specific software applications outside of PeopleSoft's
traditional cross-industry enterprise resource planning applications. The
purpose of the distribution is to separate the risks associated with the
development of these new applications from the risks associated with
PeopleSoft's traditional core business. In return for a $250 million
contribution to Momentum, the grant of certain technology licenses and a
commitment to make specified payments on sales of certain products developed by
Momentum, PeopleSoft will receive an exclusive option to license any products
and technology developed by Momentum and the right, subject to certain
conditions, to purchase all of the outstanding shares of Momentum Class A Common
Stock.

        This document provides you with detailed information about Momentum and
the distribution. We are enthusiastic about this opportunity for Momentum to
develop new software application products for commercialization by PeopleSoft.
We encourage you to read this document carefully to learn more about Momentum,
the distribution and Momentum's future plans.

                                       Sincerely,

                                       David A. Duffield

                                     SUMMARY

        This summary highlights selected information contained elsewhere in this
information statement. It is not complete and may not contain all of the
information that is important to you. To better understand the distribution and
Momentum, you should read the entire information statement carefully, including
the risk factors and financial statements.

                 WHY THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT WAS SENT TO YOU

        This information statement is being delivered by PeopleSoft, Inc.
("PeopleSoft") to you because you were an owner of PeopleSoft Common Stock on
December 31, 1998. This entitles you to receive a distribution of one share of
the Class A Common Stock of a new company, Momentum Business Applications, Inc.
("Momentum"), for each 50 shares of PeopleSoft Common Stock owned by you on
December 31, 1998. Although no action is required on your part to cause this to
happen and you do not have to pay cash or other consideration to receive these
shares, the distribution of these shares to you will be taxable as a dividend,
so please read carefully the information in this information statement regarding
the tax consequences of this transaction.

        This information statement describes the business of Momentum, the
relationship between PeopleSoft and Momentum, how this transaction benefits
PeopleSoft and its stockholders and provides other information to assist you in
evaluating the benefits and risks of holding or disposing of your shares of
Momentum Class A Common Stock. The Momentum Class A Common Stock has been
approved for quotation on the Nasdaq National Market under the symbol "MMTM."

                              BUSINESS OF MOMENTUM

        PeopleSoft is a leader in the development, marketing, licensing and
support of enterprise client/server business administration software application
solutions. PeopleSoft recently formed Momentum to develop and commercialize new
software products and technology.

        Momentum plans to develop products and technology based on product plans
developed in conjunction with PeopleSoft. Momentum currently expects that these
products will include:

        -      electronic business applications that will be intuitive,
               user-focused solutions that enable people to conduct a broad
               range of business processes and commercial transactions over the
               Internet or a customer's intranet;

        -      analytic applications that will utilize information captured by
               enterprise on-line transaction processing applications and other
               information sources to facilitate business decisions; and

        -      software applications designed for specific industries -- such as
               utilities, professional services, financial services, retailing
               and health care -- that will provide information processing
               capabilities for business functions required in those industries.

        Momentum anticipates that it will have limited staff and facilities. As
a result, Momentum will engage PeopleSoft and/or other firms to perform
substantially all of the research and development activities necessary to
develop its products. To the extent Momentum engages PeopleSoft to perform
research and development efforts in areas PeopleSoft currently does not have
expertise, it is expected that PeopleSoft will hire individuals possessing such
knowledge to conduct the research and development of Momentum's products. These
products will be owned by Momentum, which will then license, sell or grant


                                      -3-
<PAGE>   7
distribution rights to these products to PeopleSoft and/or others. Momentum may
also acquire or invest in complementary companies, products, or technologies or
enter into joint ventures or strategic alliances with other companies as a part
of its overall strategy to accelerate or enhance product development. In
addition, PeopleSoft will perform a variety of administrative activities for
Momentum under a separate services arrangement. Please review the information
set forth under the caption "Business" for further details about Momentum's
business.

                  RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PEOPLESOFT AND MOMENTUM

FORMATION AND FUNDING

        Prior to the distribution of the Momentum Class A Common Stock to the
PeopleSoft stockholders (the "Distribution"), PeopleSoft will contribute $250
million in cash to Momentum to fund product development and operating expenses.
This payment will reduce the total amount of cash, cash equivalents, and
short-term and long-term investments on PeopleSoft's balance sheet by $250
million. Upon completion of the Distribution, Momentum will cease to be a
wholly-owned subsidiary of PeopleSoft, and PeopleSoft's stockholders' equity
will be reduced by $250 million. Momentum will have no assets other than the
$250 million initially contributed by PeopleSoft and the contract rights
described below. PeopleSoft does not currently intend to provide any additional
funding to Momentum. However, PeopleSoft has a right of first refusal, but not
an obligation, to provide additional funding to Momentum.

STOCK OWNERSHIP AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

        Class A and Class B Common Stock. Momentum has two classes of Common
Stock, Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock. All of the Momentum Class
A Common Stock is being distributed to the PeopleSoft stockholders pursuant to
this information statement. PeopleSoft owns all of the authorized shares of the
Momentum Class B Common Stock. The Momentum Class A Common Stock is subject to
the PeopleSoft Purchase Option described below. The Momentum Class B Common
Stock is not. Under Momentum's Certificate of Incorporation, Momentum may not,
without the consent of PeopleSoft as the sole holder of the Momentum Class B
Common Stock, merge, liquidate, transfer or encumber any substantial assets,
amend its Certificate of Incorporation to change the PeopleSoft Purchase Option
or take certain other actions that could be adverse to PeopleSoft's interests as
the sole holder of the Momentum Class B Common Stock.

        Board of Directors. Momentum's Board of Directors will consist of four
directors, one selected by the holders of the Momentum Class B Common Stock and
three selected by the holders of the Momentum Class A Common Stock. Please
review the information set forth under the captions "The Agreements and the
Purchase Option -- Purchase Option" and "Description of Capital Stock" for
further details about Momentum's capital structure and matters related to
corporate governance.

PURCHASE OPTION

        PeopleSoft will have the right to purchase all (but not less than all)
of the outstanding Momentum Class A Common Stock (the "Purchase Option") at any
time prior to December 31, 2002, subject to extension under certain
circumstances. If PeopleSoft exercises its Purchase Option, the exercise price
will be equal to the highest amount based on four formulas, but in no event less
than $75 million. If PeopleSoft exercises the Purchase Option, PeopleSoft will
pay the Purchase Option Exercise Price in cash. The per share purchase price of
the Momentum Class A Common Stock will be reduced if Momentum issues additional
Momentum Class A Common Stock after the date of this information statement and
prior to the date that PeopleSoft exercises the Purchase Option. Please review
the information set forth under the

caption "The Agreements and the Purchase Option -- Purchase Option" for further
details about the Purchase Option.

CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENTS

        PeopleSoft and Momentum have entered into a series of agreements -- a
Development and License Agreement (the "Development Agreement"), a Marketing and
Distribution Agreement (the "Marketing Agreement") and a Services Agreement (the
"Services Agreement") -- that set forth:

        -      the permitted uses of the Available Funds (as defined below);

        -      Momentum's rights to use certain technology of PeopleSoft;

        -      the development work and other services to be performed for
               Momentum by PeopleSoft; and

        -      PeopleSoft's rights with respect to the products to be developed
               by Momentum.

        "Available Funds" means the initial $250 million contribution by
PeopleSoft to Momentum plus the interest earned on such funds less amounts spent
to develop or acquire Momentum Products and related technology and for related
administrative expenses. The terms and conditions of the Development Agreement,
the Marketing Agreement and the Services Agreement are described in detail under
the caption "The Agreements and the Purchase Option" herein.

                          REASONS FOR THE DISTRIBUTION

        PeopleSoft and Momentum believe that an attractive business opportunity
exists to develop e-business applications, analytical applications and industry
specific software applications. However, the development of these products
requires certain technologies and expertise different from those required for
the development of PeopleSoft's traditional on-line transaction processing
products and consequently entail a higher level of technology and business risk.
PeopleSoft believes the risk of hiring the individuals and acquiring or
developing the technology necessary to pursue product development in these areas
is too high for it to accept on its own. PeopleSoft believes the formation of
Momentum and the arrangements between PeopleSoft and Momentum will provide
PeopleSoft with an opportunity to pursue these new areas more quickly than would
otherwise be possible. PeopleSoft believes the formation of Momentum will
benefit PeopleSoft stockholders by:

        -      separating this new business, with its own unique market
               opportunity and risk/reward profile, from PeopleSoft's
               traditional cross-industry ERP applications;

        -      enabling PeopleSoft stockholders to increase or decrease their
               level of participation in this new business by varying their
               level of investment in Momentum (by selling or acquiring Momentum
               shares in the open market); and

        -      allowing PeopleSoft's financial results to continue to reflect
               principally its traditional cross-industry ERP applications
               business and previously existing industry initiatives.

        Please review the information set forth under the caption "Reasons for
the Distribution" for further details about the reasons for the Distribution.

                                THE DISTRIBUTION

        Each PeopleSoft stockholder will receive one share of Momentum Class A
Common Stock for every 50 shares of PeopleSoft Common Stock held. As of December
28, 1998, PeopleSoft had 233,805,123 shares of Common Stock outstanding.

        Record Date, Distribution Date. The record date for the date for the
Distribution will be the close of business on December 31, 1998. On the record
date, PeopleSoft will transfer to a custodian all of the shares of Momentum
Class A Common Stock pursuant to an irrevocable custody arrangement. On or about
January 15, 1998, the custodian will deliver the shares to Momentum's transfer
agent who will then mail them to the PeopleSoft stockholders of record as of the
record date.

        No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Momentum Class A Common
Stock will be distributed. Fractional shares of Momentum Class A Common Stock
will be aggregated and sold by Momentum's transfer agent and distribution agent
for the Distribution, Boston EquiServe, L.P., to provide cash to holders in lieu
of such fractional shares.

        Trading Market. The Momentum Class A Common Stock has been approved for
quotation on the Nasdaq National Market under the symbol "MMTM."

        All Shares Subject to Purchase Option. All shares of the Momentum Class
A Common Stock will be subject to the Purchase Option. PeopleSoft will decide
whether to exercise the Purchase Option based on the prevailing circumstances at
the time consideration is given to its exercise. Such circumstances include the
extent to which Momentum is successful in developing Momentum Products, the
level of market acceptance such products initially achieve (as indicated by
initial licensing activities under PeopleSoft's License Option), and whether the
Momentum Products will fit PeopleSoft's business strategies at the time of such
exercise evaluation.

                        FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

        It is expected that the Distribution will be taxable to each PeopleSoft
stockholder in the amount of the fair market value of the Momentum Class A
Common Stock distributed to such PeopleSoft stockholder. In early 2000, each
recipient of distributed Momentum Class A Common Stock will receive an IRS Form
1099-DIV reflecting the fair market value of the Momentum Class A Common Stock
distributed. The recipient's initial basis (for income tax purposes) in the
distributed Momentum Class A Common Stock will be the fair market value of such
shares at the time of the Distribution. Upon the sale or other disposition of
the Momentum Class A Common Stock, including the exercise by PeopleSoft of the
Purchase Option, a holder of the Momentum Class A Common Stock will have a
taxable gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the
consideration received from PeopleSoft in such exercise and such holder's basis
in the Momentum Class A Common Stock. The Distribution, any subsequent sale of
Momentum Class A Common Stock, and the exercise or expiration of the Purchase
Option may have other federal income tax consequences to holders. See "Federal
Income Tax Considerations." Each PeopleSoft stockholder is urged to consult his
or her own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences of this
transaction.

                                INVESTOR CONTACT

        Momentum and PeopleSoft stockholders with questions about the
Distribution should contact Kip Meintzer at PeopleSoft's principal executive
offices at 4460 Hacienda Drive, Pleasanton, California 94588; telephone (925)

                                  RISK FACTORS

        You should carefully consider the risks described below when evaluating
your ownership of the Momentum Class A Common Stock. The risks and uncertainties
described below are not the only ones Momentum faces. Additional risks and
uncertainties Momentum is presently not aware of or that it currently considers
immaterial may also impair Momentum's business operations.

        If any of the following risks actually occurs, Momentum's business,
financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely
affected. In such case, the trading price of the Momentum Class A Common Stock
could decline significantly.

        This information statement also contains forward-looking statements.
These statements include words such as "may," "will," "expect," "believe,"
"intend," "anticipate," "estimate" or similar words. These statements are based
on Momentum's current beliefs, expectations and assumptions. Momentum's actual
results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking
statements due to certain factors, including the risks described below and
elsewhere in this information statement. Momentum undertakes no obligation to
update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise.

MOMENTUM IS A NEW COMPANY AND EXPECTS TO INCUR SUBSTANTIAL LOSSES

        Momentum is a newly formed company. It faces all of the risks associated
with establishing a new business enterprise in the software industry. Momentum
will incur substantial losses for several years as it develops its products.
Momentum will be able to recover such losses only if its development efforts are
successful.

MOMENTUM MAY NOT SUCCESSFULLY SELECT OR DEVELOP PRODUCTS

        Momentum has entered into the Development Agreement with PeopleSoft that
requires Momentum to use all the Available Funds in connection with the research
and development of products that PeopleSoft proposes and Momentum approves.
These products may not be the appropriate products for development. To date,
PeopleSoft has relied upon third parties to develop industry-specific software
and has obtained these products through licensing arrangements or acquisitions.
PeopleSoft, therefore, does not have substantial experience in developing
industry-specific products. In addition, neither PeopleSoft nor Momentum have
significant familiarity with the evolving markets of e-business and analytic
application products. Such inexperience and unfamiliarity may cause PeopleSoft
and Momentum to choose inappropriate products for development.

        Even if PeopleSoft and Momentum choose appropriate products for
development, Momentum may not be able to successfully manage the development of
such products. Developing any of these products involves a number of risks and
uncertainties, including:

        o      it may be difficult for Momentum (and/or the parties with whom
               Momentum contracts to perform development work) to assemble a
               workforce with sufficient domain expertise;

        o      evolving customer demands for product functionality may require
               greater resources than originally anticipated;


                                      -7-
<PAGE>   11

        o      Momentum may need to develop new technologies to address
               increased product functionality requirements;

        o      development efforts may be complex and such complexities may
               create a risk that these products will not be technologically
               feasible; and

        o      any products developed may rapidly become obsolete or require
               substantial resources to stay current.

Any one or all of these factors may prevent Momentum from successfully
developing any of these software application products.

        Despite testing by Momentum, primarily through third parties, software
programs as complex as those likely to be developed by Momentum are likely to
contain a number of undetected errors or "bugs" when they are first introduced.
This may result in reduced acceptance of these software products in the
marketplace. The effort and expense of developing, testing and maintaining
software product lines will increase with the increasing number of possible
combinations of: (i) vendor hardware platforms; (ii) operating systems and
updated versions; (iii) application software products and updated versions; and
(iv) RDBMS platforms and updated versions. Developing consistent software
product performance characteristics across all of these combinations could place
a significant strain on Momentum's development resources and software product
release schedules.

        Momentum believes it will benefit in the area of undetected errors in
choosing to utilize third parties for its development efforts. For example, by
contracting with PeopleSoft for its product development, Momentum gains access
to testing processes which have been developed and improved over numerous
product releases. Momentum does not believe all errors will be detected through
testing or other processes, and thus may incur costs to fix these errors after
products are released.

        PeopleSoft has granted Momentum a license to use PeopleSoft Technology
to develop products under the Development Agreement. However, some or all of the
products Momentum may attempt to develop under the Development Agreement may
require new technologies, or enhancements or modifications to existing
PeopleSoft Technology. Momentum may not be able to acquire or develop the
technology necessary to successfully develop its products.

MOMENTUM AND PEOPLESOFT MAY NOT BE ABLE TO MARKET MOMENTUM'S PRODUCTS

        PeopleSoft or Momentum may not be able to successfully market any
products developed by Momentum. PeopleSoft may need to develop or expand its
marketing capabilities in order to commercially exploit any products it chooses
to license from Momentum, and PeopleSoft may be unable or unwilling to undertake
such a development or expansion of its marketing capabilities. If PeopleSoft
does not choose to license a product developed under the Development Agreement,
Momentum will have to identify other ways of commercially exploiting that
product as Momentum currently has no marketing capabilities. If Momentum decides
to market a product itself or through a third party, PeopleSoft may not approve
Momentum's use of Available Funds for marketing the product. Additionally,
Momentum may not have sufficient resources to fund any such marketing effort.
Even if acceptable marketing resources are available, the products developed by
Momentum may be unsuccessful in the market.


                                      -8-
<PAGE>   12
MOMENTUM WILL HAVE DIFFICULTY RAISING ADDITIONAL FUNDS

        Prior to the Distribution, PeopleSoft will contribute $250 million in
cash to Momentum. PeopleSoft does not currently intend to contribute additional
funds to Momentum, although it may do so in the future. Under the Development
Agreement, Momentum must use all the Available Funds in connection with the
research and development of Momentum Products and for related administrative
expenses. Momentum may not have sufficient funds to complete the development of
any such products.

        Although Momentum is not prohibited from raising additional capital by
any of the arrangements between Momentum and PeopleSoft, PeopleSoft's Purchase
Option and its rights as the sole holder of the Momentum Class B Common Stock
may make it difficult for Momentum to raise additional capital. For example,
PeopleSoft's Purchase Option (and its ability to control certain matters as the
sole holder of the Momentum Class B Common Stock) may make it more difficult for
a third party to acquire Momentum even if a change of control could benefit
Momentum's stockholders by providing them with a premium over the then current
market price of their shares. As a result, the market value and liquidity of the
Momentum Class A Common Stock may be adversely affected.

        If the Purchase Option expires unexercised, Momentum may have very
little cash, few assets and an undeterminable number of products under research
and development. Momentum may also have very little internal expertise in
product development or marketing. Under these circumstances, third parties might
be reluctant to lend money to or to invest in Momentum.

PEOPLESOFT MAY NOT EXERCISE ITS LICENSE OPTION OR PURCHASE OPTION

        PeopleSoft is not obligated to exercise its License Option with respect
to any Momentum Product. If PeopleSoft elects not to exercise its License Option
with respect to a product, Momentum may be required to find alternative ways to
commercialize the product. Momentum may not be able to establish alternative
channels to commercialize its products. In addition, the Marketing Agreement
prevents Momentum from commercializing any products containing PeopleSoft
Technology through designated competitors of PeopleSoft.

        PeopleSoft has sole discretion as to when, if ever, it exercises the
Purchase Option, and may choose to do so at a time when the purchase price is as
low as possible. If PeopleSoft does not exercise the Purchase Option, the
Development Agreement will expire and Momentum may need to seek alternative
research and development facilities, either independently or with a third party.
Momentum may not be able to obtain access to adequate research and development
facilities on a timely basis, on acceptable terms, or at all.

POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST WITH PEOPLESOFT

        DEPENDENCE ON PEOPLESOFT FOR PERSONNEL AND FACILITIES. Momentum expects
that it will engage PeopleSoft to perform substantially all of the research and
development required under the Development Agreement. Momentum believes that
PeopleSoft's current and planned personnel and facilities will be adequate for
PeopleSoft to perform such work. However, PeopleSoft is not obligated to perform
any research and development for Momentum. In the event PeopleSoft agrees to
undertake any research and development projects for Momentum, PeopleSoft will be
able to allocate its personnel and facilities among its own or Momentum's
projects as it deems appropriate, subject only to its obligation to use diligent
efforts under the Development Agreement.


                                      -9-
<PAGE>   13
        DEPENDENCE ON PEOPLESOFT TECHNOLOGY. Momentum expects that all of the
products it develops will to some extent incorporate PeopleSoft Technology.
PeopleSoft has licensed such technology to Momentum. However, if Momentum wants
to engage a party other than PeopleSoft to conduct research and development on
its behalf, Momentum must obtain PeopleSoft's consent before that party may use
the PeopleSoft Technology. In addition, Momentum believes that enhanced
functionality will need to be added to PeopleTools(R) in order for Momentum to
develop certain of its products. If PeopleSoft chooses not to develop those
enhancements itself, Momentum would either have to develop them internally or
pay a third party to do so. Any enhancements to PeopleSoft Technology by
Momentum or any third party will be owned by PeopleSoft.

        DEPENDENCE ON PEOPLESOFT FOR MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION PRIOR TO GENERAL
AVAILABILITY. Prior to the commercial release of a product, software companies
typically allow selected users to use, test and comment upon the product. Such
pre-release marketing and distribution is often a critical element in the
development and refinement of a software product. Under the Development
Agreement, PeopleSoft will control the marketing and distribution of all
Momentum Products prior to such products becoming Generally Available. Though
the Development Agreement requires that PeopleSoft use commercially reasonable
efforts with respect to such marketing and distribution efforts, Momentum and
PeopleSoft may disagree about the timing, breadth and intensity of such efforts.

        PEOPLESOFT'S CONTROL OVER DETERMINATION OF GENERAL AVAILABILITY. Under
the Marketing Agreement, PeopleSoft is responsible for determining when a
Momentum Product is Generally Available. Because PeopleSoft's right to exercise
its License Option with respect to a Momentum Product expires 30 days after the
product becomes Generally Available, PeopleSoft could delay its determination
that the product is Generally Available.

        PEOPLESOFT'S CONTROL OVER LICENSED PRODUCTS. If PeopleSoft exercises its
License Option with respect to a Momentum Product, PeopleSoft will receive a
perpetual, worldwide, exclusive license to, among other things, market and
distribute that product. The right to market and distribute the Momentum Product
allows PeopleSoft to control the pricing of the product. PeopleSoft has no
minimum royalty obligation or any express obligation with respect to its
marketing and distribution effort. As a result, PeopleSoft may have substantial
control over the Net Revenues it receives from licensing the Momentum Product,
which may impact the Product Payments made by PeopleSoft to Momentum.

        PEOPLESOFT'S APPROVAL IS REQUIRED FOR CERTAIN MOMENTUM CORPORATE
ACTIONS. PeopleSoft will own all of the authorized shares of the Momentum Class
B Common Stock. Momentum's Certificate of Incorporation prohibits Momentum from
taking or allowing any action inconsistent with, or that would in any way
adversely affect, PeopleSoft's Purchase Option. Additionally, Momentum will need
PeopleSoft's consent to merge, liquidate, transfer or encumber any substantial
portion of its assets, or amend its Certificate of Incorporation to change any
of the following:

        o      PeopleSoft's Purchase Option;

        o      the authorized capitalization of Momentum; or

        o      the portions of Momentum's Certificate of Incorporation governing
               the Board of Directors.


                                      -10-
<PAGE>   14

PeopleSoft's ability to control the matters listed above could adversely affect
the trading price and liquidity of the Momentum Class A Common Stock. Also,
PeopleSoft may be able to delay or prevent a change of control of Momentum, even
if such a change of control would be beneficial to Momentum's stockholders. This
could limit the price that certain investors might be willing to pay for the
Momentum Class A Common Stock in the future. The special rights given to the
holder of the Momentum Class B Common Stock will expire on the same date that
the Purchase Option expires.

        THE PURCHASE OPTION EXERCISE PRICE. The price at which PeopleSoft can
exercise the Purchase Option was determined by PeopleSoft alone and not through
arm's-length negotiations. PeopleSoft considered the following factors in making
its determination of the purchase price:

        o      how the Momentum Class A Common Stock will be distributed;

        o      Momentum's planned business;

        o      the terms of the Development Agreement and the Marketing
               Agreement;

        o      the advice of Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated
               ("Merrill Lynch"); and

        o      other factors it deemed appropriate.

Until the Purchase Option expires, the market value of the Momentum Class A
Common Stock will be limited by the Purchase Option Exercise Price.

        PRODUCT COMPETITION. PeopleSoft may develop and/or market for its own
benefit products that compete directly with products that Momentum develops.

        LEGAL REPRESENTATION. Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, Professional
Corporation, has acted as legal counsel to both PeopleSoft and Momentum in
connection with the transactions described in this information statement.

RELIANCE ON PEOPLESOFT FOR RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

        Momentum expects that substantially all of its research and development
will be performed by third party contractors, primarily PeopleSoft. Though
PeopleSoft is not obligated to provide research and development services to
Momentum, Momentum expects it will do so for so long as the Purchase Option is
in effect. However, Momentum believes that if the Purchase Option expires
without being exercised that it is unlikely that PeopleSoft will continue to
provide research and development services. In such an instance, Momentum would
have to either develop its own research and development expertise or identify
and contract with other third party developers. Either option is likely to
involve substantial expense and to delay Momentum's product development efforts.

MOMENTUM PRODUCTS BASED ON PEOPLESOFT TECHNOLOGY; NO ASSURANCE OF COMPATIBILITY
WITH OTHER TECHNOLOGIES OR PRODUCTS

        Momentum expects that the Momentum Products will be designed and built
to interface and be compatible with PeopleSoft's technology and products. As a
result, Momentum's ability to market the Momentum Products is dependent on
market acceptance of PeopleSoft's technologies, products and 


                                      -11-
<PAGE>   15

installed base of customers. If Momentum wishes to develop products based on
technologies and/or for products other than PeopleSoft's, Momentum may need to
incur substantial development costs to ensure compatibility with such other
technologies and/or products. Momentum anticipates that PeopleSoft will not
approve the use of Available Funds for this purpose. Even if Momentum is able to
fund these development efforts, Momentum may be unable to develop products that
are compatible with technologies other than PeopleSoft's technology.

MOMENTUM FACES INTENSE COMPETITION

        The market for business application software is intensely competitive.
Momentum believes it will face substantial competition from the large,
established providers of enterprise-wide application software as well as from
numerous smaller, more specialized software companies. Other than PeopleSoft,
SAP AG ("SAP"), Oracle Corporation ("Oracle"), Baan Company N.V. ("Baan") and
J.D. Edwards & Company ("J.D. Edwards") are the major providers of
enterprise-wide software. Momentum believes that each of these companies has
either launched initiatives or has the technical, financial, and marketing
capability to launch initiatives to develop products which directly compete with
the products Momentum intends to develop. In addition, numerous well-established
companies specialize in e-business products, analytic applications or particular
industry-specific applications. Almost all of Momentum's competitors have
substantially greater financial, technical and marketing resources than those of
Momentum. Furthermore, although Momentum believes PeopleSoft does not intend to
compete with it, PeopleSoft is free to do so.

        Momentum expects that any products developed by it will be
commercialized by other parties, most likely through PeopleSoft. Although
PeopleSoft has substantial market share in the enterprise-wide application
software market, it does not have a significant presence in the markets for
e-business or analytic application products or in any of the markets for which
Momentum intends to develop industry-specific application products. As a result,
PeopleSoft may not be able to compete successfully with the other large
providers of enterprise-wide application software or with the established
specialized software companies in these markets. Additionally, if Momentum
commercializes its products through third parties, such third parties may not
have the financial, technical and marketing resources to compete successfully
with Momentum's competitors.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH ACQUISITIONS

        As part of its overall strategy to enhance or accelerate its product
development efforts, Momentum may acquire or invest in complementary companies,
products or technologies or enter into joint ventures or strategic alliances
with other companies. Risks commonly encountered in such transactions include
the difficulty of assimilating the operations and personnel of the combined
companies, the potential disruption of Momentum's ongoing business, the
inability to retain key technical and managerial personnel, the inability of
management to maximize the financial and strategic position of Momentum through
the successful integration of the acquired business, decreases in reported
earnings as a result of charges for in-process research and development and
amortization of acquired intangible assets, dilution of existing equity holders,
difficulty in maintaining controls, procedures and policies, and the impairment
of relationships with employees and customers as a result of any integration of
new personnel. There can be no assurances that Momentum would be successful in
overcoming these risks or any other problems encountered in connection with such
business combinations, investments or joint ventures, or that such transactions
will not have an adverse effect on Momentum's business, financial condition and
results of operations. Because of the rights of PeopleSoft set forth in
Momentum's Certificate of Incorporation, Momentum cannot effectively make any
acquisitions without the prior approval of PeopleSoft.


                                      -12-
<PAGE>   16
DISPOSITION OF SHARES BY PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDER MAY ADVERSELY EFFECT MARKET PRICE
OF MOMENTUM CLASS A COMMON STOCK

        Immediately following the Distribution, David A. Duffield, the President
and Chief Executive Officer of PeopleSoft, will beneficially own approximately
21% of the outstanding Momentum Class A Common Stock. Because of the potential
for conflicts of interest to arise between PeopleSoft and Momentum as a result
of Mr. Duffield's role as the President and Chief Executive Officer of
PeopleSoft, on one hand, and as the principal stockholder of Momentum, on the
other hand, Mr. Duffield has advised Momentum that he intends to gift, sell or
otherwise dispose of approximately 16% of the outstanding shares of Momentum
Class A Common Stock shortly after the Distribution is completed. The sale of
such a large block of the Momentum Class A Common Stock by Mr. Duffield (or any
of his donees or transferees) could have a material adverse effect on the
trading price of the Momentum Class A Common Stock. Such sales could also make
it more difficult for Momentum to sell equity securities or equity-linked
securities in the future at a time and price that Momentum deems appropriate.

LIMITATION ON LICENSES TO THIRD PARTIES

        Momentum has granted PeopleSoft an option to obtain a perpetual,
exclusive license to market, distribute, sublicense, support and enhance any
products that Momentum develops under the Development Agreement. PeopleSoft's
option with respect to a particular product expires 30 days after that product
becomes Generally Available. Until that time, Momentum may not license such
products to any other party. As a result, Momentum may miss opportunities to
license the products it develops to third parties for higher royalty rates than
those PeopleSoft is obligated to pay. In addition, in the event that PeopleSoft
declines to exercise its License Option, the delay in Momentum's ability to
identify and enter into a licensing arrangement with a third party may adversely
affect the terms Momentum is eventually able to obtain from that third party.

LIMITED INTERNATIONAL CAPABILITY

        Products developed by Momentum may have difficulty achieving broad
market penetration outside of North America. In order to commercialize software
application products outside of North America, Momentum or its third party
licensees may need to create localized versions of these products. Neither
Momentum nor its third party licensees may have sufficient resources or funding
to create, market and license localized versions of any of the products
developed by Momentum.

        In addition to the uncertainties related to commercializing Momentum's
products outside of North America, there are certain risks inherent in doing
business internationally. These risks include:

        o      compliance with regulatory requirements and changes in these
               requirements;

        o      tariffs and other trade barriers;

        o      unfavorable pricing and price competition;

        o      currency fluctuations;

        o      longer payment cycles in some countries;


                                      -13-
<PAGE>   17

        o      difficulties in collecting international accounts receivable;

        o      difficulties in enforcing contractual obligations and
               intellectual property rights;

        o      potentially adverse tax consequences;

        o      increased costs associated with maintaining international
               marketing efforts and offices; and

        o      political instability.

Any one or all of these factors may adversely affect the commercialization of
Momentum's products outside of North America.

POTENTIAL INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS; LIMITED
PROTECTION OF MOMENTUM'S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS

        The products Momentum intends to develop may incorporate certain
technologies of PeopleSoft and other third parties. While Momentum intends to
obtain from third parties permission to use their technologies, Momentum's
activities could unintentionally infringe the patents, copyrights or other
intellectual property rights of others. Consequently, third parties may assert
infringement claims against Momentum with respect to its products. Any such
assertion could require Momentum to enter into royalty arrangements or could
result in costly litigation.

        Momentum intends to rely on a combination of copyright, trade secret,
and patent laws and employee and third party non-disclosure agreements to
protect its intellectual property rights, including the features and design
aspects of its products. Such measures may not be sufficient to protect its
rights, and Momentum's competitors may independently develop technologies that
are substantially equivalent to or superior to Momentum's technology. Momentum
may from time to time become involved in litigation regarding the scope and
validity of its intellectual property rights. Any such litigation, whether or
not successful, could result in substantial costs to Momentum and diversion of
efforts by Momentum's management.

NO PRIOR TRADING MARKET FOR MOMENTUM CLASS A COMMON STOCK; STOCK PRICE MAY BE
VOLATILE

        Prior to the Distribution, there has been no public market for the
Momentum Class A Common Stock. The Momentum Class A Common Stock has been
approved for quotation on the Nasdaq National Market. Momentum does not know
whether investor interest in Momentum will lead to the development of a trading
market or, if a trading market develops, how active that trading market will be.
Based on the trading patterns of other companies which became publicly traded in
similar transactions, Momentum expects that while there may be active trading in
its Class A Common Stock initially, within a month or two after the Distribution
trading will be quite limited.


                                      -14-

        A number of factors may affect the price and liquidity of the Momentum
Class A Common Stock, including:

        o      actual or anticipated fluctuations in Momentum's operating
               results;

        o      changes in expectations as to Momentum's future financial
               performance or changes in securities analysts' financial
               estimates;

        o      the operating and stock price performance of PeopleSoft;

        o      the operating and stock price performance of other comparable
               companies; and

        o      changes in investors' estimates of the likelihood, price and
               timing of the possible exercise by PeopleSoft of its Purchase
               Option.

        In addition, the Momentum Class A Common Stock may be followed by few,
if any, market analysts and there may be few institutions acting as market
makers for the Momentum Class A Common Stock. Either of these factors could
adversely affect the liquidity and trading price of the Momentum Class A Common
Stock. Also, the stock market in general has experienced extreme price and
volume volatility that has especially affected the market prices of securities
of many high technology companies. At times, this volatility has been unrelated
to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market and
industry fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of the Momentum
Class A Common Stock, regardless of Momentum's actual operating performance.

MOMENTUM IS SUBJECT TO ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS

        Certain provisions of Momentum's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws
could make it more difficult for a third party to gain control of Momentum, even
if a change in control might be beneficial to Momentum's stockholders. This
could adversely affect the market price of the Momentum Class A Common Stock.
These provisions include:

        o      the elimination of the right of stockholders to act by written
               consent;

        o      the elimination of the right of stockholders to call special
               meetings of the stockholders;

        o      the creation of a staggered Board of Directors;

        o      the ability of the Board of Directors to designate and issue
               Preferred Stock without stockholder consent; and

        o      the ability of PeopleSoft to purchase the Momentum Class A Common
               Stock pursuant to the Purchase Option.

EFFECT OF YEAR 2000 IS UNCERTAIN

        Momentum expects that substantially all of its research and development
and administrative activities will be performed by PeopleSoft. Momentum believes
that PeopleSoft's internal systems are Year 2000 compliant. To the extent that
Momentum purchases its own internal systems or contracts with other parties for
such services, it expects to be able to find systems and service providers which
are Year 2000 compliant. However, Momentum and PeopleSoft will be relying on a
variety of service providers, including telephone companies, utilities and
network services providers whose Year 2000 compliance is difficult to ascertain.
If any these providers were unable to provide their services to either
PeopleSoft or Momentum, Momentum's business could be adversely affected.

                                THE DISTRIBUTION

        The Board of Directors of PeopleSoft has declared a dividend, payable to
its stockholders, of one share of Momentum Class A Common Stock for every 50
shares of PeopleSoft Common Stock held on December 31, 1998, the record date for
the Distribution. As a result of the Distribution, all of the then outstanding
Momentum Class A Common Stock will be distributed to PeopleSoft's stockholders.
After the Distribution, PeopleSoft will hold all of the authorized shares of the
Momentum Class B Common Stock. See "Description of Capital Stock."

        On December 31, 1998, PeopleSoft will effect the Distribution by
delivering all of the Momentum Class A Common Stock to State Street Bank & Trust
Company which will hold such shares as custodian for the benefit of the
PeopleSoft stockholders of record as of the record date. pursuant to an
irrevocable custody arrangement. On or about January 15, 1998, State Street Bank
& Trust Company will deliver the shares to Boston Equiserve L.P., Momentum's
transfer agent, which will begin mailing the shares to the PeopleSoft
stockholders of record as of the record date.

        No fractional shares will be issued as part of the Distribution. The
distribution agent will aggregate undistributed fractional shares and sell such
shares at the earliest practicable date at the then-prevailing market price.
Each person who would be otherwise entitled to receive a fractional share will
instead receive a cash payment equal to such person's proportionate share of the
net proceeds of the sale of such aggregated shares.

        PeopleSoft's stockholders will not be required to pay any cash or other
consideration for the Momentum Class A Common Stock received in the
Distribution. However, the Distribution of the Momentum Class A Common Stock to
PeopleSoft stockholders is a taxable transaction under federal income tax law.
See "Federal Income Tax Considerations."

        The general terms and conditions of the Distribution and the
arrangements between PeopleSoft and Momentum are set forth in the Development
Agreement, the Marketing Agreement, the Services Agreement and the Distribution
Agreement. See "The Agreements and the Purchase Option." The Distribution
Agreement conditions the Distribution on, among other things, the absence of
material adverse changes in the business, financial condition or results of
operations of PeopleSoft or Momentum. PeopleSoft will pay the costs and expenses
incurred in connection with the Distribution.

                          REASONS FOR THE DISTRIBUTION

        PeopleSoft's management regularly discusses the current state of the
software industry and where future demand will be focused. Based on these
discussions, PeopleSoft believes that an attractive business opportunity exists
to develop e-business applications, analytic applications, and industry-specific
software applications. These market opportunities provide PeopleSoft with
potential growth and profitability opportunities to complement its existing
market presence in enterprise applications. However, the development of these
products requires new and different technologies and expertise, and
consequently, entails a higher level of technology and business risk to
PeopleSoft than that of its traditional on-line transaction processing products.
The development of analytic applications and e-business products may require the
use of technology unlike that utilized in PeopleSoft's current development
activities. PeopleSoft believes the potential risk of hiring individuals and
acquiring or developing technology to allow for adequate research and
development in these areas is too high for it to accept on its own.

        PeopleSoft believes the formation of Momentum to develop products in
these areas, and the arrangements between PeopleSoft and Momentum, will provide
PeopleSoft with an opportunity to pursue, more quickly than would otherwise be
possible, these new businesses. PeopleSoft believes that the arrangement with
Momentum will benefit PeopleSoft stockholders by:

- -       separating this new business, with its own unique market opportunity and
        risk/reward profile, from PeopleSoft's traditional cross-industry ERP
        applications;

- -       enabling PeopleSoft stockholders to increase or decrease their level of
        participation in this new business by varying their level of investment
        in Momentum (by selling or acquiring Momentum shares in the open
        market); and

- -       allowing PeopleSoft's financial results to continue to reflect
        principally its traditional cross-industry ERP applications business and
        previously existing industry initiatives.

        After reviewing PeopleSoft's goals and objectives and considering other
possible methods of enhancing the growth of its product commercialization
business, PeopleSoft's management and Board of Directors believe enhancing this
business through the formation of Momentum and the Distribution will benefit the
PeopleSoft stockholders. PeopleSoft's Board of Directors approved the formation
of Momentum and the Distribution based on information provided by PeopleSoft's
management and its financial advisor Merrill Lynch. See "Opinion of Merrill
Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated" attached as Exhibit A to this
information statement.

        PeopleSoft will pay Merrill Lynch a fee of $2.5 million for its services
in connection with the Distribution. The receipt of the fee is contingent upon
the consummation of the Distribution. Merrill Lynch will also be reimbursed for
expenses that it has incurred or will incur in rendering its services.
PeopleSoft has agreed to indemnify Merrill Lynch against certain liabilities and
expenses in connection with its services as financial advisor. Merrill Lynch has
from time to time performed various investment banking and financial advisory
services for PeopleSoft.


                                      -19-
<PAGE>   23

        Merrill Lynch, as part of its investment banking business, engages in
the valuation of businesses and securities in connection with mergers,
acquisitions, underwritings, sales and distributions of listed and unlisted
securities, private placements, and valuations for estate, corporate and other
purposes. PeopleSoft selected Merrill Lynch as its financial advisor because it
is a nationally recognized investment banking firm that has substantial
experience in transactions similar to the Distribution.

        Although Merrill Lynch participated in certain of the discussions
regarding the Distribution, the terms of the Distribution were determined by
PeopleSoft's Board of Directors.

        PeopleSoft will account for the Distribution as follows. At the time of
the contribution of the Available Funds, PeopleSoft will record an investment in
Momentum of $250 million. At the time PeopleSoft transfers the Momentum Class A
Common Stock to the custodian, PeopleSoft will account for the fair market value
of the shares distributed as a dividend and will expense the difference between
the book value of its Momentum investment and the fair market value of the
shares of Momentum Class A Common Stock. The fair market value of the shares of
Momentum Class A Common Stock will be based on the average of the high and low
trading price on the date the Momentum Class A Common Stock is distributed to
PeopleSoft's stockholders or if such date is not a trading day, on the first
trading day thereafter. PeopleSoft will not consolidate Momentum's financial
statements subsequent to distributing the Momentum Class A Common Stock to its
stockholders.

                                           BUSINESS

BACKGROUND

        PeopleSoft established Momentum to select and develop certain e-business
products, analytic applications and industry-specific application products.
Prior to the Distribution, PeopleSoft will contribute $250 million to Momentum
so that Momentum will have financial resources to pursue the development of
these products. In addition, PeopleSoft and Momentum have entered into a series
of agreements relating to various matters including:

        -      the permitted uses of the Available Funds;

        -      Momentum's right to use PeopleSoft Technology;

        -      development work and other services which may be performed by
               PeopleSoft; and

        -      PeopleSoft's rights with respect to the products to be developed
               by Momentum.

        Under the Development Agreement, Momentum may use the Available Funds
only to develop those products which PeopleSoft proposes and which Momentum
accepts for development. PeopleSoft and Momentum will jointly agree on the work
plans and cost estimates for such products. PeopleSoft has granted to Momentum
the right to use PeopleSoft Technology to develop such products. Because
Momentum is expected to have limited staff and facilities, Momentum anticipates
engaging PeopleSoft to perform substantially all of the research and development
activity related to such products. However, Momentum could engage third parties
to perform such efforts, perform them itself or acquire other technologies or
companies. To the extent Momentum engages PeopleSoft to perform research and
development efforts in areas PeopleSoft currently does not have expertise, it is
expected that PeopleSoft will hire individuals possessing the required
knowledge. Momentum currently has no plans to develop products other than those
pursuant to the Development Agreement.

        Momentum expects that initially its only revenue will come from
investment income derived from the Available Funds and that it will incur
substantial losses as it expends funds pursuant to the Development Agreement.
Momentum believes it eventually will derive revenue from the commercialization
of the products it develops, most likely through PeopleSoft. However, Momentum
has made no forecasts as to when, if at all, it will be profitable or when, if
at all, meaningful revenues will be generated through this activity.

PEOPLESOFT TECHNOLOGY OVERVIEW

        PeopleSoft developed PeopleTools(R), its rapid application development
environment and architecture, specifically for developing enterprise resource
planning ("ERP") application products. ERP applications are applications that
collect, summarize and store transaction data for historical record keeping
purposes across many functional areas of a company. Software developers use
PeopleTools(R) to, among other things, build and modify data tables, design and
customize user interface windows and develop varying security level
functionality. Since the introduction of PeopleTools(R) in 1988, PeopleSoft has
invested and continues to invest considerable funds and resources in the ongoing
enhancement and updating of this development environment. Using this proprietary
development environment, PeopleSoft has developed a comprehensive suite of
cross-industry administrative on-line transaction processing


                                      -21-
<PAGE>   25

("OLTP") applications. OLTP applications are a subset of ERP applications
focused on data specific to one business function within a company. PeopleSoft's
suite of OLTP products includes applications in human resource management,
financials, distribution, manufacturing, and supply chain optimization.

        PeopleSoft has granted Momentum a license to use PeopleTools(R) and
certain other technology to develop products under the Development Agreement.
Momentum believes that to develop industry-specific applications, PeopleSoft or
Momentum may need to develop or acquire enhanced functionality for
PeopleTools(R). In addition, Momentum may need to develop, acquire or license
additional development technologies to develop its e-business and analytic
applications. The Development Agreement allows Momentum to obtain, either
through development, acquisition or licensing, the rights to development tools
as deemed necessary to complete the products selected.

THE MOMENTUM PRODUCTS

        "Momentum Products" are products recommended by PeopleSoft and accepted
by Momentum for research and development under the Development Agreement.
Momentum currently intends to develop the following types of Momentum Products:

        e-business Products. Momentum currently plans to build e-business
applications that will be intuitive, user-focused solutions that enable people
to conduct a broad range of business processes and commercial transactions over
the Internet or a customer's intranet. These e-business applications will
include a new extended-enterprise class of applications that integrate content
from a customer's intranet, third party information and service providers and
PeopleSoft's traditional cross-industry ERP applications.

        Analytic Application Products. PeopleSoft's OLTP products have
traditionally focused on helping companies improve the efficiency of business
processes. In contrast, analytic application products are focused on turning
stored data (created primarily by OLTP applications) into business intelligence
that can be used by companies to improve operating effectiveness. Momentum
currently plans to develop analytic application products that will deliver data
warehouse capabilities while allowing for integration and reconciliation to the
general ledger, billing, and time and labor systems. These analytic application
products are intended to enable rapid analysis and decision making while
lowering the risk of inconsistent data within an organization.

        Industry-Specific Application Products. Momentum plans to develop a
series of products to address the software application needs of certain
industries. The initial target markets include utilities, professional services,
financial services, retailing and healthcare. The Momentum Products will be
designed to provide information processing capabilities for business functions
critical to each specific industry. Such industry-specific application products
typically support the core operating areas of a company.

        Under the License Option, PeopleSoft has the right to obtain a
perpetual, exclusive license to market, distribute, sublicense, support and
enhance any product developed by Momentum pursuant to the Development Agreement.
This right expires 30 days after a product becomes Generally Available. The
determination of whether a product is Generally Available will be made by
PeopleSoft based upon the test procedures it uses for its own products. If
PeopleSoft exercises its rights under the License Option for a product, it will
pay Momentum a royalty on sales of that product in accordance with a formula
contained in the License Option. PeopleSoft will also then be responsible for
all upgrades, bug fixes and customer support related to the product. If
PeopleSoft does not exercise its rights under the License Option,


                                      -22-
<PAGE>   26

Momentum may commercialize the product itself or through arrangements
with third parties that are not designated competitors of PeopleSoft.

        In the event Momentum successfully commercializes a product, any revenue
it receives from such commercialization will not be considered Available Funds.
Momentum will be free to use such revenue for any purpose, including additional
product development. PeopleSoft will have no rights with respect to any products
Momentum develops using funds other than Available Funds.

DEVELOPMENT CYCLE

        Scope and Design: Based on input from sales personnel, customers,
business partners and industry analysts, PeopleSoft will identify and prioritize
product opportunities and present such opportunities to Momentum. For each
product opportunity, high level business requirements will be defined and
documented. This initial product scope will be reviewed and discussed with
internal and external business process functional experts in an iterative review
process to confirm a product's conceptual framework. Once the initial product
scope is defined, the individual product features will be identified and
prioritized. In addition, new technologies that would be required to build and
deploy the product will be identified. For each product feature or new
technology, a written summary of its business requirements will be prepared and
reviewed with appropriate development personnel. Based on this review, product
strategy and development personnel will reach an initial agreement on the
product's content and priorities for the initial release. Functional and
technical designs will be developed for each planned feature. Design reviews
will be held with teams comprised of product strategy, release testing,
documentation, sample data and training personnel. During the design review
process, this group will ensure not only that the functional requirements are
complete but also that the technical design meets the business needs

        Develop and Port: In developing a new product, the development team will
code and unit test every feature in the products to ensure that the product
created complies with the functional and technical requirements. These tasks
will be conducted using a reference development platform, and the functionality
will be designed to provide global capabilities based on requirements from a
proxy set of countries around the world. All development issues will be
identified and addressed. At the same time, system test requirements and
procedures will be developed. Test strategies, product test plans, feature test
requirements and test procedures will be completed. During the development and
port phase, documentation and curriculum development personnel will work closely
with the developers to design documentation and training courses. Upon
substantial completion of development, the developed product will be ported to
support multiple hardware, database and operating system platforms, and release
platforms will be certified.

        Test and Release: The product will be delivered to a select group of
Pre-General Availability customers for limited use. Pre-General Availability
customers will provide feedback on the features and functions as well as ease of
use. Issues identified during this phase generally will be resolved prior to the
product being released as Generally Available. In addition, the combined product
features will then be system tested on the primary development platform. These
tests will validate that the product and its features perform according to the
specified business and functional requirements. All test failures will be
logged, reviewed and addressed. Release test requirements, plans and processes
will then be developed and finalized. During this phase, the product will be
tested to validate that it is operational on all supported platforms. The
product will be tested for (i) ease of use, (ii) ease of installation, (iii)
ease of upgrade, (iv) volume and (v) performance. All incidents reported during
release test will be logged, reviewed and addressed. Once the product has met
system and release test exit criteria, all sample data and


                                      -23-
<PAGE>   27
documentation will be finalized and incorporated into the master production
product. Final validation and acceptance tests will then be performed.

POTENTIAL RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENDITURES

        Momentum believes there are numerous possible products which could be
developed in each of the three areas described under the caption "Business--The
Momentum Products" above, but neither it nor PeopleSoft has made any decisions
on which specific products to develop. Following contribution of the Available
Funds, Momentum and PeopleSoft will agree on the initial prioritization of the
products to be developed, and allocate the Available Funds accordingly. The
Available Funds are expected to be expended under the Development Agreement over
a period of three to four years. This estimate is based on PeopleSoft's
experience in developing software products of comparable scope, the number of
projects that are deemed manageable at any given time and the availability of
engineers with the requisite expertise.

        Development of each industry specific application is expected to require
a team leader and 10 fully dedicated personnel for approximately 18 to 24 months
to reach General Availability. Development of products in the e-business area is
expected to take at least the same amount of time as industry specific
application development, but may require more time or larger teams. In contrast,
development of analytic applications should be quicker than industry specific
application development. Momentum expects that in the first six months after the
contribution of the Available funds it will commence the development of
approximately 8 to 10 projects, and will start an additional set of projects in
the subsequent six-month period. As the first set of projects is completed,
additional projects will commence. The time frame to begin development efforts
will be primarily dependent on identifying and obtaining the proper technical
personnel once the projects are selected for development. Momentum estimates
that the maximum number of projects it will initiate in the first year is 25.

        These development efforts are currently estimated to require $40-$60
million for scope and design, $150-$175 million for develop and port and $30-$50
million for test and release, although these estimates may change over time as
PeopleSoft and Momentum select and develop products. Because of the rapidly
changing dynamics of the computer software industry, products currently
forecasted to be undertaken by Momentum may be reprioritized as the product
areas develop. In addition, factors outside of Momentum's control, such as
customer functionality demands, competitor product offerings, and hardware
platforms, could alter the timing and amount of estimated expenditures and the
number of completed projects.

FACILITIES AND PERSONNEL

        Momentum is not expected to hire a significant number of employees or to
acquire significant property or assets. However, in order to develop products
under the Development Agreement, Momentum will have to make decisions on how to
obtain adequate resources for its development efforts. Momentum currently
expects that it will contract with PeopleSoft to provide engineering personnel
and facilities to perform the development work. Momentum has the right to
perform this work directly or seek other third party providers. Momentum is
expected to use a substantial portion of the Available Funds to compensate
PeopleSoft for the research and development of Momentum Products. In addition,
pursuant to the Services Agreement, PeopleSoft will provide Momentum with
general administrative support services and office space for its corporate
headquarters. If PeopleSoft does not exercise the Purchase Option, Momentum
expects that the Services Agreement will not be renewed and that it will need to
find alternate suppliers of administrative services and office space.


                                      -24-
<PAGE>   28
COMPETITION

        The market for business application software is intensely competitive.
Momentum believes it will face substantial competition from the large,
established providers of enterprise-wide application software as well as from
numerous smaller, more specialized software companies. Other than PeopleSoft,
SAP, Oracle, Baan and J.D. Edwards are the major providers of enterprise-wide
software. Momentum believes that each of these companies has either launched
initiatives or has the technical, financial, and marketing capability to launch
initiatives to develop products which directly compete with the products
Momentum intends to develop. In addition, numerous well-established companies
specialize in e-business products, analytic applications or particular
industry-specific applications. Almost all of Momentum's competitors have
substantially greater financial, technical and marketing resources than those of
Momentum. Furthermore, although Momentum believes PeopleSoft does not intend to
compete with it, PeopleSoft is free to do so.

        Momentum expects that any products developed by it will be
commercialized by other parties, most likely through PeopleSoft. Although
PeopleSoft has substantial market share in the enterprise-wide application
software market, it does not have a significant presence in the markets for
e-business or analytic application products or in any of the markets for which
Momentum intends to develop industry-specific application products. As a result,
PeopleSoft may not be able to compete successfully with the other large
providers of enterprise-wide application software or with the established
specialized software companies in these markets. Additionally, if Momentum
commercializes its products through third parties, such third parties may not
have the financial, technical and marketing resources to compete successfully
with Momentum's competitors.

PATENTS; INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

        The products Momentum intends to develop may incorporate certain
technologies of PeopleSoft and other third parties. While Momentum intends to
obtain from third parties permission to use their technologies, Momentum's
activities could unintentionally infringe the patents, copyrights or other
intellectual property rights of others. Consequently, third parties may assert
infringement claims against Momentum with respect to its products. Any such
assertion could require Momentum to enter into royalty arrangements or could
result in costly litigation.

        Momentum intends to rely on a combination of copyright, trade secret,
and patent laws and employee and third party non-disclosure agreements to
protect its intellectual property rights, including the features and design
aspects of its products. Such measures may not be sufficient to protect its
rights, and Momentum's competitors may independently develop technologies that
are substantially equivalent to or superior to Momentum's technology. Momentum
may from time to time be involved in litigation regarding the scope and validity
of its intellectual property rights. Any such litigation, whether or not
successful, could result in substantial costs to Momentum and diversion of
efforts by Momentum's management.

        The following table sets forth information about Momentum's executive
officer and director as of November 16, 1998:

                                          Secretary and Director
</TABLE>

        Aneel Bhusri has been Momentum's President, Chief Financial Officer,
Secretary and sole director since Momentum's formation in November 1998. Mr.
Bhusri joined PeopleSoft in August 1993 as Director of Strategic Planning. In
April of 1995, he was appointed Vice President of Product Strategy. In November
of 1995, Mr. Bhusri was appointed Senior Vice President of Product Strategy. In
April 1997, he was appointed Senior Vice President of Product Strategy, Business
Development and Marketing. Prior to joining PeopleSoft, Mr. Bhusri was an
associate at Norwest Venture Capital from June 1992 to March 1993. From 1988 to
1991 he was a financial analyst in Morgan Stanley's Corporate Finance
Department. Mr. Bhusri holds a B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering and a B.A. in
Economics from Brown University, and an M.B.A. from Stanford University.

        Momentum expects that prior to the Distribution, Mr. Bhusri will appoint
an individual who is unaffiliated with PeopleSoft and has experience in the
software industry to replace Mr. Bhusri as the sole officer of Momentum. The new
President will then propose two additional persons unaffiliated with PeopleSoft
and with experience in the software industry, finance or accounting to fill the
remaining two vacancies on the Board of Directors. Holders of Momentum Class A
Common Stock will not have elected any of the initial members of Momentum's
Board of Directors. Because the representatives of the Momentum Class A Common
Stock serve staggered three-year terms, the holders of Momentum Class A Common
Stock will be able to vote on only one representative at each annual meeting of
stockholders.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

        Momentum was formed on November 9, 1998. PeopleSoft will contribute a
total of $250 million in cash to Momentum prior to the Distribution.
PeopleSoft's contribution (together with interest earned thereon) is expected to
fund research and development activities for approximately three to four years.
Momentum's funds are expected to be used primarily to fund activities to be
conducted under the Development Agreement with PeopleSoft. Momentum expects to
engage PeopleSoft or other third parties to perform the development activities
on Momentum's behalf. Momentum is not expected to require significant facilities
or capital equipment of its own during the term of the Development Agreement.

        Momentum's development activities are expected to focus on e-business
products, analytic application products, and industry specific applications.
PeopleSoft will propose various products to Momentum from which Momentum will
select certain products to develop. Momentum believes there are numerous
possible products which could be developed in each of the three areas which
collectively could require more than the Available Funds to develop fully. Thus,
Momentum will be required to evaluate and select which product ideas to develop.
Based on PeopleSoft's experience in developing software products of comparable
scope, and the number of projects that are believed to be manageable at any
given time, and assuming availability of engineers with relevant expertise, the
Available Funds are expected to be expended in approximately three to four
years.

        In addition to the Available Funds, Momentum may generate additional
funds through successfully licensing its products to PeopleSoft or other
parties. These funds would not be considered Available Funds and thus their use
by Momentum would not be restricted by PeopleSoft. Momentum may also obtain
additional financing through either debt or equity financing, as long as the
terms of such financings do not alter PeopleSoft's rights as a Class B Common
Stock holder. Funds raised through such financings would not be considered
Available Funds and thus their use by Momentum would not be restricted by
PeopleSoft.

        There can be no assurances, particularly given the existence of the
Development Agreement, the Marketing Agreement and the Services Agreement, that
Momentum will be able to raise any additional capital. Such additional capital,
if raised, would most likely reduce the per share proceeds available to holders
of the Momentum Class A Common Stock if the Purchase Option were to be exercised
by PeopleSoft. See "The Agreements and the Purchase Option--Purchase Option."

OPERATIONS

        Prior to the Distribution, Momentum will not have conducted any
operations. After the Distribution, Momentum's operations will be conducted
largely pursuant to the Development Agreement, the Marketing Agreement and the
Services Agreement. See "The Agreements and the Purchase Option."

        In its early years, Momentum's revenues are expected to consist solely
of investment income. In later years, Momentum may derive license revenues from
commercialization of Momentum Products, most likely by PeopleSoft. However,
Momentum is not expected to earn substantial revenues unless the Momentum
Products are successfully commercialized.


                                      -30-
<PAGE>   34



        Momentum's expenses will be incurred primarily under the Development
Agreement and the Services Agreement. If Momentum engages PeopleSoft to perform
research and development work, PeopleSoft will charge Momentum 110% of its
fully-burdened cost of performing such activities. Fully burdened costs include
salary, benefits and overhead allocations, but do not include certain other
costs, such as the human resources costs associated with recruiting development
personnel and pre-release testing costs. Based on its internal projections,
PeopleSoft believes that these other costs will be approximately 10% of the
fully-burdened costs. Momentum will also incur certain direct costs associated
with developing Momentum Products. These costs could also include payments to
other third parties for development, royalties, or costs associated with
acquiring or investing in complementary companies, products or technology.

        Under the Services Agreement, PeopleSoft will provide Momentum certain
administrative services including accounting, finance, human resources and legal
services. Momentum will pay PeopleSoft a fee of $100,000 per quarter for such
services. This fee is based on PeopleSoft's internal projections of the
incremental costs it will incur to provide these services. Momentum will also
incur direct costs such as professional services, insurance, taxes and
regulatory fees.

        As a result of its need to incur substantial development expenses prior
to receiving significant revenue, Momentum anticipates that it will incur
substantial losses which will likely be recurring.

        Momentum's future cash flow obligations will derive largely from the
Development Agreement and the Services Agreement. Momentum is required to expend
the Available Funds only to acquire or develop Momentum Products and related
technologies and for related administrative expenses. The rate at which
Available Funds are expended will derive from work plans and cost estimates
approved by Momentum.

YEAR 2000 DISCLOSURE

        Momentum expects that substantially all of its research and development
and administrative activities will be performed by PeopleSoft. Momentum believes
that PeopleSoft's internal systems are Year 2000 compliant. To the extent that
Momentum purchases its own internal systems or contracts with other parties for
such services, it expects to be able to find systems and service providers which
are Year 2000 compliant. However, Momentum and PeopleSoft will be relying on a
variety of service providers, including telephone companies, utilities and
network services providers whose Year 2000 compliance is difficult to ascertain.
If any these providers were unable to provide their services to either
PeopleSoft or Momentum, Momentum's business could be adversely affected.

                     THE AGREEMENTS AND THE PURCHASE OPTION

        Set forth below are summary descriptions of the Development Agreement,
the Marketing Agreement and the Services Agreement entered into between Momentum
and PeopleSoft. These summaries describe the material terms and conditions of
these agreements as well as the rights and obligations of Momentum and
PeopleSoft under the agreements. It is important that you take the time to
understand these agreements, because they have a direct influence on the
development of Momentum's business, Momentum's ability to finance its business,
the development of Momentum's products, the cost of product development, how
Momentum products may be marketed and other key factors relating to the
direction, independence and viability of Momentum. In addition, you are urged to
read the complete agreements which were included as exhibits to the Registration
Statement of which this information statement is a part. See "Where You Can Find
More Information."

DEVELOPMENT AND LICENSE AGREEMENT

        Momentum and PeopleSoft have entered into a Development and License
Agreement (the "Development Agreement") for the selection and development of
software application products including (i) e-business applications, (ii)
analytic applications, and (iii) industry-specific software application
products.

        Pursuant to the Development Agreement, the parties have agreed to the
following terms:

        PeopleSoft has granted to Momentum a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive
license to use PeopleSoft Technology solely for internal use purposes connected
with the Development Agreement and solely in conjunction with Momentum's
development, support, demonstration, testing (and all other related tasks) of
the Momentum Products.

        PeopleSoft will propose to Momentum that it develop particular software
products and related technologies. If Momentum agrees to develop such products,
PeopleSoft and Momentum will agree upon timetables, budgets and specifications
for each product. Products recommended by PeopleSoft and approved by Momentum
for development are called "Momentum Products."

        Momentum has agreed to use diligent efforts to research and develop
Momentum Products in accordance with agreed upon budgets and timetables.
Momentum expects that it will undertake research and development by contracting
with a third party, as it does not expect to have the staffing or facilities to
do such research and development itself. Momentum currently expects that
substantially all of the research and development relating to Momentum Products
will be performed by PeopleSoft. However, PeopleSoft is not obligated to provide
any such services to Momentum, and Momentum may choose to hire other third party
providers. If Momentum chooses to engage PeopleSoft, it will pay PeopleSoft one
hundred and ten percent (110%) of PeopleSoft's fully burdened costs relating to
the research and development provided by PeopleSoft. PeopleSoft will recognize
such reimbursement amounts as product development revenues. If a third party is
hired to conduct research and development relating to Momentum Products, any
agreement between Momentum and such third party must include appropriate
provisions for the protection of PeopleSoft Technology and PeopleSoft's rights
under the Development Agreement, the Marketing Agreement, and the Services
Agreement and as a holder of the Momentum Class B Common Stock.

        Momentum may develop or acquire (through licensing or otherwise) third
party software toolsets ("Developed Technology") for the purpose of developing
Momentum Products. To the extent Momentum has the right, Momentum will grant
PeopleSoft an irrevocable, worldwide, non-exclusive license to use, market,
manufacture, reproduce, copy, sublicense, distribute (through PeopleSoft's then
current worldwide 


                                      -32-


<PAGE>   36

channel distribution system), create derivative works, enhance and modify the
Developed Technology. For a period of ten (10) years from the date the Developed
Technology is acquired or first identified as part of the work plan related to
the development of a Momentum Product, PeopleSoft will pay a royalty of one
percent (1%) of net revenue on products (other than Momentum Products) developed
by PeopleSoft using Developed Technology. In order to develop certain products
using Developed Technology, PeopleSoft may need to acquire licenses or enter
into other arrangements with third parties. For purposes of calculating
royalties due to Momentum for the use of Developed Technology in these products,
net revenue will be reduced by the amount of license fees or similar payments
due to third parties from PeopleSoft with respect to such product.

        PeopleSoft will own all rights with respect to any enhancements made by
Momentum to PeopleTools(R) or other software products contributed by PeopleSoft.
PeopleSoft will not be obligated to make any royalty or other payments with
respect to such technology or enhancements. Momentum will own the Developed
Technology and the Momentum Products subject to PeopleSoft's license rights as
described in the Development Agreement and the Marketing Agreement.

        Momentum may use the Available Funds only to develop or acquire Momentum
Products and related technologies and for related administrative expenses. It is
anticipated that Momentum will spend the Available Funds over a period of
approximately three to four years. Prior to expenditure, Momentum will be
required to invest the Available Funds in high quality marketable securities.
Any such investment earnings shall become a part of the Available Funds.
Momentum may not encumber, pledge or otherwise take any action with respect to
Available Funds that could prevent the full expenditure of such funds under the
Development Agreement. Under certain circumstances, PeopleSoft will have the
right to require Momentum to make an affirmative pledge of the Available Funds
to performance under the Development Agreement. Other than PeopleSoft's rights
under the Purchase Option, there are no restrictions on Momentum's use of funds
it generates or receives, that are not Available Funds, to conduct its business
as it determines.

        The Development Agreement will automatically terminate upon the
expiration of the Purchase Option; provided, however, PeopleSoft's obligation to
pay royalties on Developed Technology will continue until the expiration of the
respective royalty terms. Either party may terminate the Development Agreement
if the other party breaches a material obligation thereunder and such breach
continues uncured for thirty (30) days after written notice by the terminating
party.

        In the event the Development Agreement or the Marketing Agreement is
terminated by PeopleSoft in connection with Momentum's breach of a material
obligation under the Development Agreement or the Marketing Agreement,
PeopleSoft shall be entitled to receive, as liquidated damages, the Available
Funds. If PeopleSoft reasonably believes that such liquidated damages are
inadequate, then PeopleSoft will be entitled to specific performance of
Momentum's obligations under the Development Agreement or the Marketing
Agreement in connection with such breach.

MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT

        Under the Marketing and Distribution Agreement (the "Marketing
Agreement"), Momentum has granted PeopleSoft the exclusive license to market and
distribute pre-General Availability versions of each Momentum Product (the
"Pre-General Availability License") and an option to obtain a perpetual,
worldwide, exclusive license to market, distribute, sublicense, support and
enhance any post-General Availability versions of each Momentum Product (the
"License Option").


                                      -33-
<PAGE>   37



        Under the Pre-General Availability License, PeopleSoft has an exclusive
license with respect to each Momentum Product to market and distribute the
Momentum Product for the period from which Momentum accepts the relevant product
proposal from PeopleSoft until the earlier of: (i) the exercise or expiration of
PeopleSoft's License Option with respect to the Momentum Product; or (ii) the
expiration of the Purchase Option. PeopleSoft shall pay Momentum royalties of
six percent (6%) of Net Revenues (as defined) from the license of each Momentum
Product. PeopleSoft has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to
promptly market each pre-General Availability Momentum Product to a limited
group of customers in accordance with PeopleSoft's standard practices.

        Under the License Option, PeopleSoft may obtain a perpetual, worldwide,
exclusive license (with the right to sublicense through multiple tiers) to
market, distribute, support and enhance each Momentum Product. PeopleSoft may
exercise the License Option with respect to any Momentum Product at any time
from the date on which Momentum agrees to develop the product until the earlier
of: (i) thirty (30) days after the product becomes Generally Available; or (ii)
the expiration of the Purchase Option. A Momentum Product will be deemed to be
Generally Available upon successful completion of the release testing model
which PeopleSoft uses for its own products with the level of functionality
originally agreed to by PeopleSoft and Momentum. Upon exercise of the License
Option with respect to a Momentum Product (a "Licensed Product"), PeopleSoft
will assume full responsibility for any product development, support, training,
consulting, bug fixes, modifications and enhancements with respect to such
Licensed Product. If PeopleSoft does not exercise the License Option with
respect to a Momentum Product, PeopleSoft will retain the right and obligation
to support any customers to whom it licensed such Momentum Product pursuant to
its Pre-General Availability License. These rights and obligations will survive
the termination of the Marketing Agreement.

        PeopleSoft will make Product Payments to Momentum with respect to each
Licensed Product equal to the sum of (i) one percent (1%) of Net Revenues plus
(ii) an additional one-tenth of one percent (0.1%) of Net Revenues for each one
million dollars ($1,000,000) of Development Costs (as defined) of the Licensed
Product that were incurred by Momentum, up to a maximum royalty rate of six
percent (6%) of Net Revenues. "Net Revenues" for a particular quarter are end
user license fees received by PeopleSoft for licensing or sub-licensing each
Licensed Product less the value of bundled services and development expenses
incurred by PeopleSoft on such Licensed Product for that quarter. Net Revenues
will include all user license fees paid with respect to each Licensed Product,
regardless of whether PeopleSoft directly licenses such Licensed Product, or
indirectly licenses such Licensed Product through a reseller, distributor, or
other third party. Subject to PeopleSoft's Product Payment Buy-Out Option
described below, Product Payments will be payable by PeopleSoft to Momentum for
ten (10) years after General Availability of the Licensed Product. PeopleSoft
will retain all support services and maintenance fees with no royalty-sharing or
payment obligation to Momentum. PeopleSoft's royalty obligations will survive
the termination of the Marketing Agreement.

        PeopleSoft has the option to buy out Momentum's right to receive Product
Payments for any Licensed Product. The Product Payment Buy-Out Option may be
exercised for any Licensed Product at any time beginning twelve (12) months
after the Licensed Product is declared Generally Available. The buy-out price
will be fifteen (15) times the payment made by or due from PeopleSoft to
Momentum with respect to licenses of such Licensed Product for the four (4)
quarters immediately preceding the quarter in which the Product Payment Buy-Out
Option is exercised (payment will be annualized for any such Licensed Product
that has not been a Licensed Product for all of each of such four (4) quarters).

        If PeopleSoft does not exercise the License Option with respect to a
Momentum Product, Momentum will be free to commercialize that Momentum Product
itself or with the assistance of a third party. To the extent that any such
Momentum Product contains PeopleSoft Technology, PeopleSoft has 


                                      -34-
<PAGE>   38

granted Momentum a license with respect to PeopleSoft Technology allowing
Momentum to enhance, license, use and distribute the product provided that
Momentum may not contract with certain entities that PeopleSoft reasonably
believes and identifies as competitors of PeopleSoft. This license will survive
the termination of the Marketing Agreement.

        During the term of the Marketing Agreement, PeopleSoft will provide
quarterly reports to Momentum detailing payments due for such period with
respect to the relevant Momentum Product or Licensed Product, as the case may
be. Such reports will be due thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar
quarter and will indicate the quantity and dollar amount of Net Revenues
relating to each Momentum Product or Licensed Product, as the case may be, or
other consideration in respect of Net Revenues, during the quarter covered by
such report. No more than once in each calendar year upon at least five (5)
business days notice and during regular business hours, at Momentum's expense,
PeopleSoft is required to make available for inspection by Momentum such records
of PeopleSoft as may be necessary to verify the accuracy of reports and payments
made under the Marketing Agreement. PeopleSoft must provide similar reports and
records with respect to all Developed Technology Products.

        The Marketing Agreement terminates upon the earlier to occur of: (i) the
exercise of the Purchase Option by PeopleSoft; or (ii) the end of the thirtieth
(30th) day after the expiration of the Purchase Option. The Marketing Agreement
may be terminated by either party in the event that the other party (i) breaches
any material obligation under the Marketing Agreement (which breach continues
for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice to the defaulting party)
or (ii) enters into any proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, in bankruptcy,
reorganization or similar arrangement for the benefit of its creditors.

SERVICES AGREEMENT

        Pursuant to the Services Agreement, PeopleSoft will provide Momentum
with certain services relating to administration, including accounting, finance,
human resources and legal services. Momentum has agreed to pay PeopleSoft a fee
of $100,000 per quarter for such services. Momentum will also incur direct costs
such as professional services, insurance, taxes and regulatory fees. The
Services Agreement remains in force until December 31, 2002 and thereafter is
automatically renewed for one-year terms.

DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT

        Under the Distribution Agreement, PeopleSoft will contribute $250
million in cash to Momentum in exchange for approximately 4,750,000 shares of
Momentum Class A Common Stock. PeopleSoft will effect the Distribution by
delivering those shares to State Street Bank & Trust Company which will hold
them as custodian for the benefit of the PeopleSoft stockholders of record as of
the record date. This custody arrangement is irrevocable. On or about January
15, 1999, State Street Bank & Trust Company will deliver the shares to Boston
Equiserve L.P., Momentum's transfer agent, which will begin mailing the shares
to the PeopleSoft stockholders of record as of the record date. PeopleSoft and
Momentum have agreed to indemnify State Street Bank & Trust Company for actions
it takes in connection with acting as custodian. In addition, in the event
PeopleSoft exercises the Purchase Option, it has agreed to indemnify Momentum's
officers and director to the same extent as such persons are entitled to
indemnification under Momentum's Certificate of Incorporation.

PURCHASE OPTION

        The Purchase Option is set forth in Momentum's Certificate of
Incorporation. Pursuant to the Purchase Option, PeopleSoft has an exclusive,
irrevocable option to purchase all, but not less than all, of the issued and
outstanding Momentum Class A Common Stock. PeopleSoft may exercise the Purchase


                                      -35-

<PAGE>   39



Option by written notice to Momentum at any time during the period beginning
immediately after the Distribution until December 31, 2002; provided that such
date will be extended for successive six month periods if, as of any June 30 or
December 31 beginning with June 30, 2002, Momentum has not paid or accrued
expenses for all but $15 million of the Available Funds as of such date. In any
event, the Purchase Option will terminate on the sixtieth (60th) day after
Momentum provides PeopleSoft with a statement that, as of the end of any
calendar month, there are less than $2.5 million of Available Funds remaining.
All certificates evidencing Momentum Class A Common Stock will bear a legend
indicating that the Momentum Class A Common Stock is subject to the Purchase
Option.

        If the Purchase Option is exercised, the exercise price (the "Purchase
Option Exercise Price") will be the greatest of:

        (1)     15 times the sum of (i) the actual worldwide payments made by or
                due from PeopleSoft to Momentum with respect to all Licensed
                Products and Developed Technology for the four calendar quarters
                immediately preceding the quarter in which the Purchase Option
                is exercised (the "Base Period"); plus (ii) such payments as
                would have been made during the Base Period by, or due from,
                PeopleSoft to Momentum if PeopleSoft had not previously
                exercised its Product Payment Buy-Out Option with respect to any
                Momentum Product (for purposes of the calculations in (i) and
                (ii), payments will be annualized for any product that has not
                been a Licensed Product for all of each of the four calendar
                quarters in the Base Period);

                minus

                any amounts previously paid to exercise any Product Payment
                Buy-Out Option for such Momentum Product;

        (2)     the fair market value of six hundred thousand (600,000) shares
                of PeopleSoft Common Stock, adjusted in the event of a stock
                split or dividend, as of the date PeopleSoft exercises its
                Purchase Option;

        (3)     three hundred million dollars ($300,000,000) plus any additional
                funds contributed to Momentum by PeopleSoft, less the aggregate
                of all amounts paid or incurred to develop the Momentum Products
                or pursuant to the Services Agreement as of the date the
                Purchase Option is exercised; or

        (4)     seventy-five million dollars ($75,000,000).

        In each case, the amount payable as the Purchase Option Exercise Price
will be reduced (but not to less than the total par value of the outstanding
Momentum Class A Common Stock) to the extent, if any, that Momentum's
liabilities at the time of exercise (other than liabilities under the
Development Agreement, the Marketing Agreement and/or the Services Agreement)
exceed Momentum's cash and cash equivalents, and short-term and long-term
investments (excluding the amount of the Available Funds remaining at such
time). For this purpose, liabilities will include, in addition to liabilities
required to be reflected on Momentum's financial statements under generally
accepted accounting principles, certain contingent liabilities relating to
guarantees and similar arrangements.

        If PeopleSoft exercises the Purchase Option, PeopleSoft will pay the
Purchase Option Exercise Price in cash. For the purpose of determining the
Purchase Option Exercise Price, the fair market value of PeopleSoft Common Stock
shall be deemed to be the average of the closing sales price of PeopleSoft


                                      -36-

<PAGE>   40

Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market (or such other securities exchange on
which PeopleSoft is then listed) for the twenty (20) trading days ending with
the trading day that is two trading days prior to the date of determination. The
per share purchase price of Momentum Class A Common Stock will be reduced if
Momentum issues additional shares after the Distribution.

        The purpose of having the Purchase Option Exercise Price be determined
by reference to one of four formulas is to both provide alternatives for the
most favorable return to the holders of the Momentum Class A Common Stock based
on the achievement of certain performance criteria by Momentum, on one hand, and
to establish a minimum return of $75 million, on the other hand. The first
formula is intended to provide a favorable return to the holders of the Momentum
Class A Common Stock in the event that Momentum develops highly successful,
royalty-paying products. The second formula would benefit the holders of the
Momentum Class A Common Stock in the event that the trading price of
PeopleSoft's Common Stock were to rise significantly during the period that the
Purchase Option is exercisable, due to the performance of Momentum or otherwise.
(Based on the closing price of PeopleSoft's Common Stock on December 28, 1998,
the market value of 600,000 shares of PeopleSoft Common Stock was $11,662,500.)
The third formula was designed to provide a favorable return to the holders of
the Momentum Class A Common Stock in the event that PeopleSoft elects to
exercise the Purchase Option prior to the time that Momentum successfully
commercializes its products. The fourth option represents a minimum return of
$75 million to the holders of the Momentum Class A Common Stock. These four
alternatives were selected based on PeopleSoft's analysis of the formulas used
in comparable transactions by other companies (all of which were in the
biotechnology industry), as adjusted to take into consideration the different
development cycles and other factors specific to the software products that
Momentum proposes to develop. The determination as to whether or not to exercise
the Purchase Option is entirely within the discretion of PeopleSoft and the
results of the foregoing formulas are not determinable unless and until
PeopleSoft elects to exercise the Purchase Option.

        The closing of the acquisition of the Momentum Class A Common Stock
pursuant to exercise of the Purchase Option will take place on a date selected
by PeopleSoft, but no later than sixty (60) days after the exercise of the
Purchase Option unless, in the judgment of PeopleSoft, a later date is required
to satisfy any applicable legal requirements or to obtain required consents.
Between the time of exercise of the Purchase Option and the time of closing of
the acquisition of the Momentum Class A Common Stock, Momentum may not, without
PeopleSoft's consent, incur additional debt, dispose of assets, pay or declare
any dividends or operate its business other than in the ordinary course.

        At PeopleSoft's election, Momentum may redeem on such closing date the
Momentum Class A Common Stock for an aggregate redemption price equal to the
final Purchase Option Exercise Price. Any such redemption would be in lieu of
PeopleSoft paying the final Purchase Option Exercise price directly to holders
of Momentum Class A Common Stock, and would be subject to PeopleSoft providing
the final Purchase Option Exercise Price to Momentum to allow Momentum to pay
the redemption price.

        In the event that prior to PeopleSoft's exercise of the Purchase Option,
the number of outstanding shares of PeopleSoft Common Stock is increased by
virtue of a stock split or a dividend payable in PeopleSoft Common Stock or the
number of such shares is decreased or changed by virtue of a combination or
reclassification of such shares, then the number of shares of PeopleSoft Common
Stock used to compute the Purchase Option Exercise Price (if the Purchase Option
Exercise Price is the fair market value of 600,000 shares of PeopleSoft Common
Stock) shall be increased or decreased, as the case may be, in proportion to
such increase or decrease in the number of outstanding shares of PeopleSoft
Common Stock.


                                      -37-

        Under Momentum's Certificate of Incorporation, Momentum will be
prohibited from taking or permitting any action inconsistent with, or which
would in any way alter, PeopleSoft's rights under the Purchase Option. Momentum
may not, without consent of PeopleSoft as the sole holder of the Momentum Class
B Common Stock, merge, liquidate, sell any substantial assets, or amend its
Certificate of Incorporation to (i) alter the Purchase Option, (ii) change
Momentum's authorized capitalization, or (iii) alter the provisions governing
the Board of Directors. To the extent Rule 13e-3 ("Rule 13e-3") under the
Exchange Act dealing with going private transactions by certain issuers or their
affiliates is applicable at the time of any exercise of the Purchase Option,
PeopleSoft and Momentum will comply with their respective obligations under Rule
13e-3, subject to any available exemptions from such obligations.

                        FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

        The following discussion sets forth the opinion of Wilson Sonsini
Goodrich & Rosati, Professional Corporation, with respect to certain material
federal income tax considerations under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Code"), with respect to the shares of Momentum Class A Common
Stock, cash in lieu of fractional shares of Momentum Class A Common Stock, or
both shares of Momentum Class A Common Stock and cash distributed to
PeopleSoft's stockholders in the Distribution. THIS DISCUSSION DOES NOT ADDRESS
THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE ACQUISITION OF SHARES OF MOMENTUM CLASS A COMMON
STOCK BY PURCHASE OR MEANS OTHER THAN THE DISTRIBUTION. In addition, this
discussion is intended only to provide general information regarding PeopleSoft
stockholders that are subject to United States federal income tax; it may not
address all relevant federal income tax consequences to such persons or to other
categories of PeopleSoft stockholders, e.g., foreign persons, dealers in
securities, and stockholders that are exempt from federal income tax. This
discussion is based upon the Code, Treasury Regulations (including proposed
Treasury Regulations) promulgated thereunder, rulings, official pronouncements
and judicial decisions all as in effect on the date hereof and all of which are
subject to change or different interpretations by the Internal Revenue Service
("IRS") or the courts, any of which changes or interpretations may have
retroactive effect. Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, Professional Corporation,
has disclaimed any undertaking to advise as to any change in the law that may
affect its opinion, including changes that may be made under currently pending
legislative proposals, and has expressed no opinion as to the laws of any
jurisdictions other than the federal income tax laws of the United States of
America. An opinion of counsel does not bind the IRS, which could take a
contrary position, but represents only counsel's judgment as to the likely
outcome if the issues involved were properly presented to a court of competent
jurisdiction. This discussion assumes that the shares of Momentum Class A Common
Stock will at all relevant times constitute capital assets of the stockholders.
This discussion does not address state, local, or foreign tax considerations.
PEOPLESOFT STOCKHOLDERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS.

TAXABILITY OF THE DISTRIBUTION TO HOLDERS OF PEOPLESOFT COMMON STOCK

        The fair market value of shares of Momentum Class A Common Stock, plus
the cash intended to represent the fair market value of a fractional share of
Momentum Class A Common Stock (together, the "Taxable Amount"), distributed to a
holder of PeopleSoft Common Stock will constitute a dividend taxable as ordinary
income in the year of receipt by such holder to the extent that PeopleSoft has
current or accumulated "earnings and profits" as of the end of the taxable year
in which the Distribution is considered to have been made by PeopleSoft for
federal income tax purposes. Because it will have irrevocably transferred the
Momentum Class A Shares to a custodian for the benefit of its stockholders in
1998, PeopleSoft intends to treat the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998 as the
year in which the Distribution is deemed made by it even though such
stockholders will not receive their shares of Momentum Class A Common Stock
until 1999. Assuming that there will be a public market for the shares of
Momentum Class A Common Stock at the time of the Distribution, the fair market
value of a share of Momentum Class A Common Stock to a PeopleSoft stockholder
for this purpose is expected to be the average of the high and low trading price
on the date of the Distribution or if such date is not a trading day, on the
first trading day following the Distribution. If the Taxable Amount exceeds the
stockholder's allocable share of PeopleSoft's current and accumulated earnings
and profits for federal income tax purposes determined as of the end of
PeopleSoft's fiscal year ending December 31, 1998, the excess will generally be
treated first as a tax-free return of capital to the extent of the stockholder's
basis in the stockholder's PeopleSoft Common Stock, and after this basis is
reduced to zero, as capital gain, which will be taxed in the manner discussed in
the "Sale of Shares of Momentum Class A Common Stock" section below.
PeopleSoft's 


                                      -39-

<PAGE>   43

management has advised that, based on the information currently available,
PeopleSoft's accumulated earnings and profits at December 31, 1998 is expected
to be such that the Taxable Amount will not exceed the PeopleSoft stockholder's
allocable share of such earnings and profits.

        No later than February 1, 2000, PeopleSoft will issue to each holder of
PeopleSoft Common Stock receiving shares of Momentum Class A Common Stock in the
Distribution an IRS Form 1099-DIV reflecting the fair market value of the shares
of Momentum Class A Common Stock (and any amount of cash received in lieu of
fractional shares of Momentum Class A Common Stock) distributed to such holder,
as well as any portion of the Taxable Amount exceeding such holder's allocable
share of PeopleSoft's current and accumulated earnings and profits.

        To the extent that the Taxable Amount constitutes ordinary income, it
will generally be subject to back-up withholding with respect to PeopleSoft
stockholders who, before the Distribution, have not provided their correct
taxpayer identification numbers to PeopleSoft on an IRS Form W-9 or a substitute
therefor. Although this discussion does not generally address tax consequences
of the Distribution to foreign holders of PeopleSoft Common Stock, such holders
should note that distribution of the Taxable Amount (to the extent of such
foreign holder's allocable share of PeopleSoft's current and accumulated
earnings and profits) will generally be subject to U.S. withholding tax at the
rate of 30%. This rate may be reduced by income tax treaties to which the United
States is a party. Nonresident alien individuals, foreign corporations and other
foreign holders of PeopleSoft Common Stock are urged to consult their own tax
advisors regarding the availability of such reductions and the procedures for
claiming them.

        For corporate holders of PeopleSoft Common Stock, the Taxable Amount (to
the extent treated as ordinary income) will be eligible for a
"dividends-received" deduction, subject to limitations and exclusions provided
by the Code, if the Purchase Option is "significantly out of the money" for at
least 46 days during the 90-day period beginning 45 days before the PeopleSoft
Common Stock becomes ex-dividend with respect to the Distribution. However, for
corporate holders of PeopleSoft Common Stock, the Taxable Amount will be subject
to the Code's extraordinary dividend rules, which could reduce a corporate
holder's basis in its PeopleSoft Common Stock by the amount of the deduction, if
the Taxable Amount equals at least 10% of the holder's basis. Moreover, to the
extent that the untaxed distribution exceeds the corporate holder's basis, gain
will be recognized.

SALE OF SHARES OF MOMENTUM CLASS A COMMON STOCK

        Upon the sale of shares of Momentum Class A Common Stock, the PeopleSoft
stockholder will have a capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the
sale price and the stockholder's basis in the shares of Momentum Class A Common
Stock sold. This gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if the
shares of Momentum Class A Common Stock have a holding period of more than one
year on the sale date. The maximum stated federal income tax rate for long-term
capital gain is 20% for noncorporate holders. In addition, the combination of
the shares of Momentum Class A Common Stock and the Purchase Option may be
deemed a "straddle," with the result that the holding period of shares of
Momentum Class A Common Stock would not begin until such date as the Purchase
Option is exercised or expires. There is presently no difference in federal
income tax rates between ordinary income and capital gains of corporations.
Limitations may apply to deduction of capital loss.

        A PeopleSoft stockholder's initial basis in shares of Momentum Class A
Common Stock received in the Distribution will be the fair market value of those
shares of Momentum Class A Common Stock at 

                                      -40-

<PAGE>   44

the time of the Distribution, which fair market value will be determined in the
manner set forth under the caption "Taxability of the Distribution to Holders of
PeopleSoft Common Stock" above.

EXERCISE OF PURCHASE OPTION

        If PeopleSoft exercises its Purchase Option, holders of shares of
Momentum Class A Common Stock will have a capital gain or loss due to such
exercise equal to the difference between (a) the cash (and any other deemed
consideration) received and (b) the holder's basis in the shares of Momentum
Class A Common Stock surrendered. Gain or loss due to the exercise of the
Purchase Option will be long-term capital gain or loss if the shares of Momentum
Class A Common Stock have been held for more than one year at the time of the
closing of the exercise of the Purchase Option. However, the combination of the
shares of Momentum Class A Common Stock and the Purchase Option may be deemed a
"straddle," with the result that the holding period of shares of Momentum Class
A Common Stock would not begin until such date as the Purchase Option is
exercised and that capital gain or loss upon exercise of the Purchase Option
would be short-term. Limitations may apply to deduction of capital loss.

EXPIRATION OF PURCHASE OPTION

        If the Purchase Option expires unexercised, each holder of shares of
Momentum Class A Common Stock on the date it expires may have short-term capital
gain in the amount of the fair market value of the portion of the Purchase
Option covering the holder's shares of Momentum Class A Common Stock on the date
of the Distribution; any such gain would increase the holder's basis in the
shares of Momentum Class A Common Stock. PeopleSoft believes that the fair
market value of the Purchase Option is not readily ascertainable. Each holder of
shares of Momentum Class A Common Stock should consult his or her own tax
adviser as to what amount, if any, should be reported as gain if the Purchase
Option expires unexercised.




                                      -41-

<PAGE>   45



                          DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

        At the time of the Distribution, Momentum's authorized capital stock
will consist of (i) 10,000,000 shares of Momentum Class A Common Stock, (ii)
1,000 shares of Momentum Class B Common Stock (together with Momentum Class A
Common Stock, the "Momentum Common Stock"), and (iii) 2,000,000 shares of
undesignated Preferred Stock.

        Holders of Momentum Common Stock will be entitled to receive dividends
when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally
available therefor. Available Funds may not be used to pay dividends. In the
event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Momentum, holders of
Momentum Common Stock will be entitled to receive, pro rata, all remaining
assets of Momentum available for distribution to stockholders.

        No preemptive rights, conversion rights or sinking fund provisions will
be applicable to Momentum Class A Common Stock. Upon completion of this
Distribution, all outstanding Momentum Class A Common Stock will be fully paid
and nonassessable. The Momentum Class A Common Stock will be subject to the
Purchase Option and certificates representing such shares and book-entry account
statements will bear a legend to that effect. See "The Agreements and the
Purchase Option--Purchase Option."

        No preemptive rights or sinking fund provisions will be applicable to
the Momentum Class B Common Stock. Each share of the Momentum Class B Common
Stock, all of which are held by PeopleSoft, will automatically convert into one
share of Momentum Class A Common Stock upon such date as the Purchase Option
expires.

        Until the expiration of the Purchase Option, PeopleSoft, as the sole
holder of the Momentum Class B Common Stock, will be entitled to vote separately
as a class with respect to any merger or liquidation of Momentum, the sale,
lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of any substantial asset of
Momentum, and any amendments to the Certificate of Incorporation of Momentum
that would alter the Purchase Option, Momentum's authorized capitalization, or
the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation governing Momentum's Board of
Directors. Accordingly, PeopleSoft could preclude the holders of the Momentum
Class A Common Stock from taking any of the foregoing actions during such
period. Prior to exercise of the Purchase Option, the holder or holders of the
Momentum Class B Common Stock, voting as a separate class, will be entitled to
elect one director, and the holder or holders of the Momentum Class A Common
Stock will be entitled to elect up to three directors. Upon exercise of the
Purchase Option, PeopleSoft, as the sole holder of the Momentum Class B Common
Stock, will have the right to elect all of the Momentum directors and to remove
directors with or without cause. On all other matters, holders of the Momentum
Class A Common Stock and Momentum Class B Common Stock will vote together as a
single class. Holders of Momentum Common Stock will have one vote for each share
of Momentum Common Stock held by them. Subject to compliance with securities
laws, the Momentum Class B Common Stock is freely transferable.

        Only the Momentum Board of Directors, the Chairman of the Board or the
President may call special meetings of the Momentum stockholders. The approval
of the holder of the Momentum Class B Common Stock is required to amend the
provisions of Momentum's Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws governing the
number and classification of the Board of Directors and certain related matters.
The provisions of Momentum's Certificate of Incorporation granting special
voting rights to the holder or 

                                      -42-


<PAGE>   46

holders of the Momentum Class B Common Stock and eliminating the right of
Momentum stockholders to call special meetings of stockholders or act by written
consent may inhibit a change in control of Momentum.

        Momentum has authorized 2,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock. Shares of
Preferred Stock may be issued without stockholder approval. The Board of
Directors is authorized to issue such shares in one or more series and to fix
the designations, powers, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and
restrictions thereof, including dividend rights and rates, conversion rights,
voting rights, terms of redemption, redemption prices, liquidation preferences
and the number of shares constituting any series of the designation of such
series without any vote or action by the stockholders. However, any Preferred
Stock issued must be subject to the Purchase Option and the approval of the
holders of a majority of the Momentum Class B Common Stock is required to create
any series of Preferred Stock with powers, preferences or rights superior to or
pari passu with the Momentum Class B Common Stock.


                     RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES

        In November 1998, Momentum sold 1,000 shares of its Common Stock to
PeopleSoft for an aggregate cash purchase price of $1,000 in a transaction
exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to
Section 4(2) thereof. In connection with the Distribution made pursuant to this
information statement, the 1,000 shares of Momentum Common Stock held by
PeopleSoft will be converted into 1,000 shares of Momentum Class B Common Stock
in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act
pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) thereof.


                    INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

        As permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, both Momentum and
PeopleSoft have included in their Certificates of Incorporation a provision to
eliminate the personal liability of their directors for monetary damages for
breach or alleged breach of their fiduciary duties as directors, subject to
certain exceptions. In addition, the Bylaws of Momentum and PeopleSoft require
the companies to (i) indemnify their officers and directors under certain
circumstances, including those circumstances in which indemnification would
otherwise be discretionary, and (ii) advance expenses to their officers and
directors as incurred in connection with proceedings against them for which they
may be indemnified. Momentum and PeopleSoft have entered into indemnification
agreements with their officers and directors containing provisions that are in
some respects broader than the specific indemnification provisions contained in
the Delaware General Corporation Law. The indemnification agreements may require
the companies, among other things, to indemnify such officers and directors
against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service
as directors or officers (other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct
of a culpable nature), to advance expenses incurred as a result of any
proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified, and to obtain
directors' and officers' insurance if available on reasonable terms. Momentum
and PeopleSoft believe that these charter provisions and indemnification
agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors
and officers.

        Momentum and PeopleSoft understand that the staff of the Securities and
Exchange Commission is of the opinion that statutory, charter and contractual
provisions as are described above have no effect on claims arising under the
federal securities laws.

                      MOMENTUM BUSINESS APPLICATIONS, INC.

                             NOTES TO BALANCE SHEET


1.      Organization and Ownership

        Momentum Business Applications, Inc. (the "Company" or "Momentum") was
incorporated on November 9, 1998, in the state of Delaware for the purposes of
selecting and developing certain software applications and for commercializing
such products, most likely through licensing to PeopleSoft, Inc.
("PeopleSoft").

        The Company has not yet commenced significant operations, and its only
activity to date has been the initial funding provided by PeopleSoft, which owns
all of the Company's outstanding Common Stock. Accordingly, no statement of
operations or statement of cash flows is presented.

2.      Certain Transactions with PeopleSoft (unaudited)

        On November 10, 1998, the Board of Directors of Momentum authorized the
Company to enter into certain agreements with PeopleSoft including a Development
and License Agreement (the "Development Agreement"), a Services Agreement (the
"Services Agreement") and a Marketing and Distribution Agreement (the "Marketing
Agreement"). In addition, under the Company's Certificate of Incorporation,
PeopleSoft will have an option, for a specified amount of time, to purchase all
of the outstanding shares of the Momentum Class A Common Stock.

        Under the proposed terms of the Development Agreement, PeopleSoft will
grant to Momentum, at no charge, a worldwide license to use its PeopleTools(R)
rapid application development environment and architecture solely to develop
products accepted for development under the Development Agreement.

        Under the proposed terms of the Development Agreement, Momentum will be
required to spend all of the funds contributed by PeopleSoft for the development
and acquisition of software products and related technologies under the
Development Agreement and for related administrative expenses. Momentum is not
expected to have staffing or facilities to perform under the Development
Agreement on its own. Momentum is expected to spend most of these funds to pay
PeopleSoft for the costs of these activities. PeopleSoft will charge Momentum
110% of PeopleSoft's fully-burdened costs of these services (salaries and
benefits, plus overhead).

        Under the proposed terms of the Services Agreement, PeopleSoft will
provide Momentum with administrative services, including accounting, finance,
human resource and legal services for a set fee of $100,000.00 per quarter.

3.      Common Stock (unaudited)

        Prior to the Distribution contemplated by this information statement,
the Company intends to restate its Certificate of Incorporation to provide for
two classes of common stock, Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock. The
common stockholders of PeopleSoft will receive one share of Momentum Class A
Common Stock for each 50 shares of PeopleSoft common stock held on the record
date. The shares of Momentum Common Stock held by PeopleSoft on the record date
will be converted 

                                      F-4


<PAGE>   52

into 1,000 shares of Momentum Class B Common Stock. The holders of the Momentum
Class B Common Stock will be entitled to vote separately as a class with respect
to any merger or liquidation of Momentum, the sale, lease, exchange, transfer or
other disposition of any substantial asset of Momentum, and any amendments to
the Certificate of Incorporation of Momentum that would alter the Purchase
Option, Momentum's authorized capitalization, or the provisions of the
Certificate of Incorporation governing Momentum's Board of Directors.
Accordingly, PeopleSoft could preclude the holders of the Momentum Class A
Common Stock from taking any of the foregoing actions during such period. Prior
to exercise of the Purchase Option, the holders of the Momentum Class B Common
Stock, voting as a separate class, will be entitled to elect one director, and
the holder or holders of the Momentum Class A Common Stock will be entitled to
elect up to three directors. Upon exercise of the Purchase Option, PeopleSoft,
as the sole holder of the Momentum Class B Common Stock, will have the right to
elect all of the Momentum directors and to remove directors with or without
cause. On all other matters, holders of the Momentum Class A Common Stock and
Momentum Class B Common Stock will vote together as a single class. Holders of
Momentum Common Stock will have one vote for each share of Momentum Common Stock
held by them. Subject to compliance with securities laws, the Momentum Class B
Common Stock is freely transferable.


4.      Preferred Stock (unaudited)

        Prior to the Distribution contemplated by this information statement,
the Company intends to restate its Certificate of Incorporation to provide for
2,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock. The Board of Directors is authorized to
issue such shares in one or more series and to fix the rights, preference,
privileges, qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, including
dividend rights and rates, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of
redemption, redemption prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares
constituting any series of the designation of such series.

          OPINION OF MERRILL LYNCH, PIERCE, FENNER & SMITH INCORPORATED



                           [Merrill Lynch Letterhead]

                                                              December ___, 1998


Board of Directors
PeopleSoft, Inc.
4460 Hacienda Drive
Pleasanton, CA 94588

Gentlemen:

You have advised us that PeopleSoft, Inc. ("PeopleSoft") intends to distribute
(the "Distribution") to its stockholders shares of Class A Common Stock (the
"Momentum Shares") of Momentum Business Applications, Inc. ("Momentum"). The
Distribution is described in detail in the information statement (the
"Information Statement"), filed as part of a registration statement on Form 10,
which is to be sent to PeopleSoft stockholders in connection with the
Distribution. You have asked us for our opinion as to whether or not, from a
financial point of view, the Distribution is fair to the stockholders of
PeopleSoft. Each capitalized term used but not defined herein shall have the
meaning ascribed thereto in the Information Statement.

In arriving at the opinion set forth below, we have, among other things:

- - reviewed the Information Statement including the following items as presented
or referred to therein: (i) the terms and conditions of the Distribution, (ii)
the Marketing Agreement, (iii) the Development Agreement, (iv) the Services
Agreement, (v) the Distribution Agreement and (vi) the Certificate of
Incorporation of Momentum including the Purchase Option;

- - conducted discussions with members of the senior management of PeopleSoft with
respect to the businesses and prospects of PeopleSoft and Momentum and the
strategic objectives of each;

- - conducted discussions concerning the Distribution with other representatives
and advisors of PeopleSoft, including its independent public accountants;

- - reviewed the financial and other information concerning PeopleSoft (with and
without Momentum) that was publicly available or furnished to us by PeopleSoft,
including information provided during discussions with the senior management of
PeopleSoft;

- - reviewed historical trading prices and volume of the Common Stock of
PeopleSoft (the "PeopleSoft Common Stock"); and


                                      A-1

<PAGE>   55

- - reviewed such other financial studies and analyses and took into account such
other matters as we deemed necessary, including our assessment of general
economic, market and monetary conditions.

In preparing our opinion, we have assumed and relied on the accuracy and
completeness of all information supplied or otherwise made available to us,
discussed with or reviewed by or for us, or publicly available (including the
information contained in the Information Statement), and we have not assumed any
responsibility for independently verifying such information or undertaken an
independent evaluation or appraisal of any of the assets or liabilities of
PeopleSoft (with or without Momentum) or been furnished with any such evaluation
or appraisal. In addition, we have not assumed any obligation to conduct, nor
have we conducted, any physical inspection of the properties or facilities of
PeopleSoft. With respect to the financial forecast information furnished to or
discussed with us by PeopleSoft, we have assumed it has been reasonably prepared
and reflects the best currently available estimates and judgment of PeopleSoft's
management as to the expected future financial performance of PeopleSoft and
Momentum.

We have also assumed that: (i) the Distribution will occur as described in the
Information Statement, and (ii) after the Distribution, Momentum will be
accounted for as an entity independent of PeopleSoft.

Our opinion is necessarily based upon market, economic and other conditions,
including but not limited to generally accepted accounting principles, as they
exist and can be evaluated on, and on the information made available to us as
of, the date hereof. It is further understood that this Opinion does not
consider any future changes to such conditions that may occur following the date
of this Opinion which may adversely affect PeopleSoft's ability to pursue its
financial and strategic objectives. We note that trading in the PeopleSoft
Common Stock and the Momentum Shares for a period following completion of the
Distribution may be characterized by a redistribution of the shares of the
PeopleSoft Common Stock and the Momentum Shares among existing PeopleSoft
stockholders and other investors and, accordingly, during such period, the
PeopleSoft Common Stock and the Momentum Shares may trade at prices below those
at which they would trade on a fully distributed basis. We are not expressing
any opinion herein as to the price at which the PeopleSoft Common Stock will
actually trade after the announcement date of the Distribution or the price at
which the Momentum Shares will actually trade after the Distribution. In
addition, this opinion does not address the valuation or future performance of
Momentum as an independent public company following the Distribution, nor does
it address the adequacy of defensive measures included (A) in the Certificate of
Incorporation (as amended or restated) or the Bylaws of Momentum with respect to
(i) the rights of the holders of Momentum Shares or (ii) the rights of
PeopleSoft as holder of shares of the Class B Common Stock of Momentum, or (B)
in the agreements between PeopleSoft and Momentum entered into in connection
with the Distribution. We express no opinion as to whether the funds contributed
by PeopleSoft to Momentum will be adequate to accomplish the objective of
successfully developing the intended software products.

We are acting as financial advisor to PeopleSoft in connection with the
Distribution and will receive a fee for our services, which fee is contingent
upon the consummation of the Distribution. In addition, PeopleSoft has agreed to
indemnify us for certain liabilities arising out of our engagement. We may
continue to provide financial advisory or financing services to PeopleSoft and
may receive fees for the rendering of such services. In addition, in the
ordinary course of our business, we may actively trade PeopleSoft common stock,
and we may, in the future trade Momentum Shares for our own account and for the
accounts of customers and, accordingly, may at any time hold a long or short
position in such securities.

This opinion is for the use and benefit of the Board of Directors of PeopleSoft.



                                       A-2

<PAGE>   56



On the basis of and subject to the foregoing, as of the date hereof, it is our
opinion that, from a financial point of view, the Distribution is fair to the
stockholders of PeopleSoft. Our conclusions are based on information available
to us as of the date of this letter.

Very truly yours,




                                       A-3
