CONFIDENTIAL SEPARATION AND RELEASE AGREEMENT

Executive and JDA are parties to an Executive Employment Agreement, made effective as of October 8, 2009 (the “Employment Agreement”), pursuant to which Executive serves as the Senior Vice President and General Counsel of JDA. This Agreement supersedes and replaces the Employment Agreement, except for the surviving provisions (the “Surviving Provisions”) of the Employment Agreement (including, but not limited to sections 7.5 (“Forfeiture of Severance Benefits”), 8 (“No Conflict of Interest”), 9 (“Post-Termination Non-Competition”), 10 (“Confidentiality and Proprietary Rights”), 11 (“Nonsolicitation”), 12 (“Injunctive Relief”), 13 (“Agreement to Arbitrate”) and 14 (“General Provisions”) which are expressly incorporated herein. For the sake of clarity, section 7 (other than subsection 7.5) and section 15 (“Entire Agreement”) of the Employment Agreement do not survive and are instead replaced by the provisions of this Agreement. Executive and JDA agree that the nine (9) month Covenant Period provided in subsection 9.2 of the Employment Agreement (“Promise to Refrain from Competing”) shall be measured from the Termination Date as hereafter defined.

Except as provided in subsection (c) below, Executive's last day of employment with JDA will be the date (the “Termination Date”) which is the earlier of March 31, 2013, or the “Initial Vesting Date” (as defined in the applicable award agreement) of Executive's 2012 award of Performance Shares under the JDA 2005 Performance Incentive Plan. From the date of this Agreement until December 31, 2012 (“Initial Transition Period”), Executive shall continue to work full time, in the office, performing his regular duties and any other duties requested by the Chief Executive Officer or a new General Counsel. From January 1, 2013 until the Termination Date (“Secondary Transition Period”), Executive shall not be required to regularly come in to the office or to work full time, but will be available to perform various assigned tasks, answer questions and come in to the office as necessary to perform such tasks. During the Secondary Transition Period, Executive may engage in other paid services, provided such services do not violate Section 9 of the Employment Agreement. Through the Termination Date, Executive will continue to receive his present Base Salary (plus any annual increase percentage generally given to other JDA executives in 2012), retain his Senior Vice President title, and maintain his existing fringe benefits, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable benefit plan or policy. Executive also will receive a 2012 executive cash bonus in accordance with the Company's Executive Bonus Plan, with payment terms the same as is applicable to other JDA executives. Upon the Termination Date, Executive will be paid all of his accrued, unused paid time off. Effective as of the Termination Date, Executive shall resign from all positions he holds with JDA and each subsidiary or other entity affiliated with JDA, including all positions as an officer or director of any such entity.

Notwithstanding the above, JDA reserves the right to relieve Executive of his duties prior to the Termination Date, but in that event, as agreed above, Executive shall continue to be an employee (but have no duties unless requested by the CEO or new General Counsel), JDA shall continue to pay Executive the Base Salary, and provide the fringe benefits, to the Termination Date, pay the 2012 executive cash bonus, settle the Executive's 2012 Performance Share award, and provide the Severance Benefits (as defined below) on the terms set forth below, in each case unless Executive is terminated for Cause For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” is defined as: (a) theft or material dishonesty relating to the Company or its business, intentional falsification of any employment or Company records; or improper disclosure of Company's confidential or proprietary information; (b) Executive's conviction (including any plea of guilty or nolo contendere) for any criminal act that materially impairs his ability to perform his duties for Company; (c) willful misconduct or breach of fiduciary duty for personal profit by Executive, (d) Executive's material failure to abide by the Company's code of conduct or code of ethics policies resulting in demonstrable injury to the Company or its reputation, or (e) a material breach of this Agreement by Executive which is not cured within thirty (30) days of receipt by Executive of reasonably detailed written notice from Company.

Executive will not be entitled to receive the Severance Benefits, described below and in the Appendix, unless JDA specifically agrees to provide

Consideration. The parties' agreement to Executive's transitional employment, as described above, is the consideration for entering this Agreement. Executive understands and agrees that the transitional employment is not required by JDA's policies and procedures and that, but for this Agreement, JDA would not be obligated to provide the transitional employment to Executive. Executive also understands and agrees that JDA's obligation to provide the transitional employment is contingent on Executive's compliance with the provisions of this Agreement and Executive's continuing obligations under the Surviving Provisions.

Executive understands and agrees that the Severance Benefits shall be subject to withholding of federal and state income taxes, and any other applicable taxes and withholdings. By the execution hereof, Executive authorizes and directs JDA to withhold and remit such amounts.
