ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

        On April 9, 2000, Sedona Corporation acquired Acxiom Corporation's
Customer Information Management System, or CIMS, business unit. CIMS is a
provider of customer relationship management ("CRM") software. As a result of
this transaction, Sedona will enhance the development of its Internet-based CRM
strategy by obtaining a comprehensive CRM product suitable for smaller to
mid-sized businesses and approximately 80 client accounts.

        In connection with the transaction, Sedona issued $1.5 million in 8%
convertible preferred stock and warrants exercisable into 247,934 shares of
Sedona common stock at an exercise price of $3.025 per share. Sedona also will
pay Acxiom a 10% royalty fee on all collections of license fees derived from
CIMS technology, such royalties to be not less than $1 million over the three
year period following the acquisition, and assumed certain liabilities related
principally to the service and warranty contracts assigned by Acxiom to Sedona.
