                          Jack Henry & Associates, Inc.

                 Purchase of all of the outstanding common stock
                                       of
                             Liberty Software, Inc.




On June 30, 1995, the Company purchased all the outstanding shares of Liberty
Software, Inc. common stock for a total purchase consideration of $12,000,000
cash.  The total outlay will be made over a period of approximately 10 months. 
Approximately $5.4 million remains to be paid at June 30, 1995.

A Pro Forma statement of operations is presented for the year ended June 30,
1995, showing the combined operations as though the transaction had been
completed at July 1, 1994.  Since the acquisition was made on June 30, 1995 the
consolidated balance sheet includes the assets of the acquired business.

The Pro Forma results are not necessarily indicative of what would have occurred
had the acquisition been on that date, nor are they necessarily indicative of
future operations.  Pro Forma data reflect the adjusted amortized excess
purchase price over net assets acquired.  No adjustment was made to reflect the
combined impact of operations on income tax expense of the separate companies.
