Item 5. Other Events.

On July 5, 2000, Novadigm, Inc. ("Novadigm") issued a press release announcing
that (i) Novadigm and Hewlett-Packard Company ("HP") had entered into a
strategic alliance to integrate, market and sell Novadigm's software and content
management products with HP's OpenView management solutions for the enterprise
and service providers markets and (ii) HP will become an equity owner of
Novadigm. A copy of the press release is filed herewith as Exhibit 1.

Pursuant to the Alliance Agreement (Exhibit 2 filed herewith), Novadigm and HP
will (i) integrate the products of Novadigm and HP OpenView, (ii) jointly market
and make available to existing and prospective customers the products of
Novadigm and HP OpenView, as integrated, and (iii) provide customers the
opportunity to replace HP OpenView's Desktop Administrator ("DTA") products and
services with Novadigm's Radia products and services. In addition, under the
Alliance Agreement, Novadigm agreed to issue to HP 940,000 shares (the
"Consideration Shares") of Novadigm's common stock and a warrant (Exhibit 4
filed herewith) for an additional 250,000 shares (the "Warrant Shares") of
common stock.

Concurrently with the execution of the Alliance Agreement, Novadigm and HP also
entered into a Stockholder Rights Agreement (Exhibit 3 filed herewith) providing
certain registration rights to HP with respect to the Consideration Shares and
the Warrant Shares and subjecting the Consideration Shares and the Warrant
Shares to certain restrictions on transfer and distribution control measures. In
addition, Novadigm and HP entered into a distribution agreement which, for a fee
of $2,500,000, provides a one-year limited license to HP to upgrade certain
existing DTA customers to the Radia product.

Novadigm is currently evaluating the proper accounting treatment of the
transactions created by the aforementioned agreements, including the fair market
valuation of the Consideration Shares and the warranty, amortization of the
acquired intangible asset, and recognition of revenue from licenses,
subscriptions, and services. The accounting treatment of these transactions may
affect the operating results of Novadigm for its first fiscal quarter and
subsequent quarters in fiscal 2001 and beyond.
