ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL
The law firm of Dilworth Paxson LLP has rendered an opinion regarding the
legality of the shares of Common Stock. At February 29, 2000, Mr. Jacovini was
the beneficial owner of approximately 77,500 shares of Common Stock (including
1,336 shares of Common Stock held by his spouse and a total of 27,664 shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of certain options). On the same date, other
members of Dilworth Paxson LLP beneficially owned a total of approximately 3,000
shares of Common Stock.
ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS
The Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the
"Certificate of Incorporation") contains certain provisions permitted under the
General Corporation Law of Delaware, as amended ("Delaware GCL") which eliminate
the personal liability of directors for monetary damages for a breach of the
director's fiduciary duty, except for: (i) breach of a director's duty of
loyalty; (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) the unlawful payment of
dividends, stock purchase or stock redemption, or (iv) any transaction from
which the director derives any improper personal benefit. The Certificate of
Incorporation also contains provisions indemnifying the Company's directors,
officers and employees to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware GCL. The
Company believes that these provisions will assist the Company in attracting and
retaining qualified individuals to serve as directors, officers and employees.
The Company's directors and officers are also insured against certain
liabilities under a directors and officers liability insurance policy maintained
by the Company.

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS
A. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement to include
any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material
change to such information in the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
offered herein, and the offering of such securities at that time
shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the end
of the offering.
B. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing
of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of
the Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in
the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering
of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
C. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or
otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities
(other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid
by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by
such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the
securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion
of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Re: Manugistics Group, Inc. 1998 Stock Option Plan
of Manugistics Group, Inc. and Executive Stock
Option Grants - Registration Statement on Form S-8
----------------------------------------------------
Ladies and Gentlemen:
As counsel for Manugistics Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), we have been asked to render our opinion with respect to certain
matters relating to the offer and sale of a total of up to 6,730,000 shares of
the Company's Common Stock, par value $.002 per share (the "Shares"), which may
be issued, as follows: (i) 3,000,000 Shares -- pursuant to the 1998 Stock Option
Plan of Manugistics Group, Inc., as amended in July 1999 (the "SOP"); and (ii)
up to 3,730,000 Shares --pursuant to employee stock options granted in 1999
pursuant to employment agreements entered into with three executive officers of
the Company, but not under the SOP (the "Non-SOP Options"), which are or may
become issuable upon exercise of options granted or which may be granted upon
satisfaction of certain performance conditions. The number of shares which may
be purchased upon exercise of each option is subject to adjustment from time to
time as set forth in such option or the SOP.
The Shares are the subject of a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the
"Registration Statement") which the Company intends to file with the Securities
and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Act"), on or about March 10, 2000. (Said Registration Statement on Form S-8, as
it will initially be filed, is referred to hereinafter as the "Registration
Statement.")
<PAGE>
Dilworth Paxson LLP Page 2
To: Manugistics Group, Inc.
The Registration Statement incorporates by reference the contents of the
Company's Registration Statement on Form S-8 No. 333-62993 relating to certain
shares of Common Stock issued or issuable under the SOP. (This Registration
Statement is referred to below as the "Incorporated Registration Statement.")
We understand that the Incorporated Registration Statement remains in full force
and effect.
In rendering this opinion, we have examined: (i) the Amended and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws of the Company, each as
presently in effect; (ii) the various resolutions and related minutes of the
Company's Board of Directors respectively adopting and amending the SOP and
authorizing the reservation for issuance of an additional 3,000,000 shares of
the Company's Common Stock pursuant to the SOP; (iii) the resolutions and
related minutes of the Company's Board of Directors authorizing the grant of the
Non-SOP Options and the reservation for issuance of up to 3,790,000 shares of
the Company's Common Stock pursuant to said stock options; (iv) the resolutions
of the Company's Board of Directors authorizing the preparation and filing of
the Registration Statement; (v) the Registration Statement (including the
Incorporated Registration Statement); and (vi) such certificates and other
documents as we have deemed appropriate or necessary as a basis for the opinions
hereinafter expressed.
In rendering the opinions expressed below, we have assumed the
authenticity of all documents and records examined, the conformity with the
original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies and the
genuineness of all signatures.
Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the
Shares, when duly issued in accordance with the respective terms of the SOP
(including the terms and conditions of options granted thereunder) or the Non-
SOP Options, after the Registration Statement shall have become effective under
the Act, will be legally issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
We have made such investigation of the General Corporation Law of the
State of Delaware as we have considered appropriate for the purpose of rendering
the opinion expressed above. We are qualified to practice law in the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania; this opinion is limited to the Federal law of the
United States and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
