Item 5. Other Events

     On  December  29,  2000,   AremisSoft   Corporation  acquired  all  of  the
outstanding  shares  of Denon  International  Limited  for  approximately  $7.34
million.  Denon International is a Dubai, U.A.E., based company organized in the
British  Virgin Islands with  operations in Romania,  Turkey,  Greece,  Northern
Cyprus,  Ukraine,  Oman, Qtar, Bahrain,  Kuwait, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Jordan
and India.

     Denon  International  develops,  markets,  implements  and supports a fully
integrated ERP system with an Arabic User  Interface  directed at the ERP market
in  the  Middle  East.  The  amount  of  consideration  was  determined  through
negotiations  that took into account various factors  concerning the business of
Denon  International  including,  among other things, the barriers to entry into
the Middle Eastern ERP market and the market value of comparable companies.
