Item 5 – Other Events.

     On October 19, 2001, Daleen Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), announced and began to implement a plan to further reduce operating expenses (the “October Restructuring”). The October Restructuring includes workforce reductions and asset writedowns as well as a plan to further consolidate office space. The Company anticipates that it will record a restructuring charge of approximately $1.5 million for the quarter ending December 31, 2001, related to the October Restructuring. Such charge will include the estimated costs related to workforce reductions, downsizing of facilities, and asset writedowns. Management implemented these actions associated with the October Restructuring immediately following the October 19, 2001 announcement. The workforce reductions associated with the October Restructuring resulted in the termination of approximately 75 employees, including employees from substantially all of the Company’s employee groups. The workforce reduction represents approximately 35% of the Company’s combined workforce in the U.S. and Europe. The asset writedowns are primarily related to the disposition of duplicative furniture and equipment and computer equipment from terminated employees, which is not resaleable.

     Due to the termination of employees in the October Restructuring, and assuming the Company does not hire any additional employees, the Company expects to achieve an annualized savings relating to the cost of salaries and benefits for these terminated employees of approximately $7.4 million. The anticipated savings are from the following departments: approximately $1.0 million in cost of professional services and other; approximately $2.8 million in research and development; approximately $2.4 million in sales and marketing; and approximately $1.2 million in general and administrative.

     On October 19, 2001, the Company also announced that it expects revenue for the third quarter of 2001 to be between $2 million and $2.5 million. The Company expects that the third quarter results will reflect an improvement in the Company’s operating results and net loss per share, on an actual and on an as adjusted basis (which is excluding goodwill amortization related to the Inlogic acquisition and preferred stock dividends), as compared to the second quarter of 2001. In addition, the Company expects to record an impairment charge of approximately $23.0 million related to goodwill in connection with the acquisition of Inlogic Software Inc. in December 1999. On or around October 25, 2001, the Company expects to announce actual financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001.
