<P>ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL


<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The law firm of Dilworth Paxson LLP has rendered an opinion regarding the
legality of the shares of Common Stock registered hereunder. Joseph H.
Jacovini, Chairman and a member of Dilworth Paxson LLP, is a member of the
board of directors of the Company. On July&nbsp;31, 2001, Mr.&nbsp;Jacovini was the
beneficial owner of 148,000 shares of Common Stock (including 2,672 shares of
Common Stock held by his spouse and a total of 79,328 shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of certain options).


<P>ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS


<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company&#146;s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the
&#147;Certificate of Incorporation&#148;) and Amended and Restated By-Laws (the
&#147;By-Laws&#148;) contain certain provisions permitted under the General Corporation
Law of Delaware, as amended (&#147;Delaware GCL&#148;) which eliminate the personal
liability of directors for monetary damages for a breach of the director&#146;s
fiduciary duty, except for: (i)&nbsp;breach of a director&#146;s duty of loyalty; (ii)
acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve

<P align="center">&nbsp;
<!-- PAGEBREAK -->
<P><HR noshade><P>



<P>intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii)&nbsp;the unlawful payment of
dividends, stock purchase or stock redemption, or (iv)&nbsp;any transaction from
which the director derives any improper personal benefit. The Certificate of
Incorporation and By-Laws also contain provisions indemnifying the Company&#146;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.

<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company&#146;s directors and officers are also insured against certain
liabilities under a directors and officers liability insurance policy
maintained by the Company.

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

indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the

Estimated solely for the purpose of calculating the registration
fee, pursuant to Rule 457(c) under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, on the basis of the average of the high and low prices for
the Common Stock on August 22, 2001, as reported by the Nasdaq National
Market System, for shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under
stock options to be granted in the future under the stock option plan
mentioned above.
This Registration Statement relates to: a total of 10,000,000 additional
shares of common stock, par value $.002 per share ("Common Stock") of
Manugistics Group, Inc. (the "Company"), which may be offered and sold pursuant
to options which may be granted in the future under the Second
Amended and Restated 1998 Stock Option Plan
of Manugistics Group, Inc. (the "Plan").
Pursuant to Rule 416 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), an indeterminate amount of additional shares of Common
Stock, which may become issuable pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions of
the Plan are also being registered hereunder. The contents of the Company's
Registration Statements on Form S-8 (Reg. Nos. 333-62993 and 333-32172), which
relate to a total of 10,475,800 shares of Common Stock previously registered
for offer and sale under the Plan, are incorporated by reference.
ITEM 3. INCORPORATION OF DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE
The following documents previously filed with the Commission by the
Company are incorporated in this Prospectus by reference:
1.
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended February 28, 2001;
2.
all other reports filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange
Act"), since the end of the fiscal year covered by the registrant
document referred to in (1) above; and
3.
the description of the Company's Common Stock contained in
the Company's Registration Statement on Form 8-A under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including any amendment
or report filed to update the description.
All documents filed by the Company pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14
or 15(d) of the Exchange Act after the date of this registration statement and
prior to the termination of the offering of the Common Stock shall be deemed to
be incorporated by reference in this registration statement and to be a part
hereof from the date of filing such documents. Any statement contained in a
document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be
deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this registration statement
to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other subsequently
filed document that also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein
modifies or supersedes such statement. Any statement so modified or superseded
shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part
of this registration statement.
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 registered hereunder. Joseph H.
Jacovini, Chairman and a member of Dilworth Paxson LLP, is a member of the
board of directors of the Company. On July 31, 2001, Mr. Jacovini was the
beneficial owner of 148,000 shares of Common Stock (including 2,672 shares of
Common Stock held by his spouse and a total of 79,328 shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of certain options).
ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS
The Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the
"Certificate of Incorporation") and Amended and Restated By-Laws (the
"By-Laws") contain 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 and By-Laws also contain 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.

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 Securities 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.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant
certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the
requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration
Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly
authorized, in the City of Rockville, State of Maryland, on the 24th day of
