Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

Pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement dated February 2, 2001 by
and among Netzee, Inc. ("Netzee"), Netcal, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Netzee ("Netcal"), and The InterCept Group, Inc. ("InterCept"), Netcal sold to
InterCept certain of its operating assets and operating liabilities for a total
purchase price of approximately $16 million including liabilities assumed of
approximately $2 million. Netzee received cash proceeds of approximately
$14 million, of which $250,000 was placed in escrow for indemnification and
other purposes. The amount of the consideration was determined based upon arm's
length negotiations.

In conjunction with the sale of these assets, Netzee converted its $15 million
line of credit with InterCept and its $5 million promissory note with the John
H. Harland Company ("Harland") into a $20 million joint credit facility ($15
million to be funded by InterCept and $5 million to be funded by Harland). The
terms of the credit facility remain consistent with the terms of the former line
of credit and promissory note, except that both InterCept and Harland now have
the right (instead of just InterCept) to enforce the covenants contained in the
line of credit agreement.

After settling certain closing and other liabilities and retaining cash for
operations, Netzee used approximately $11.8 million of the proceeds from the
sale to pay down principal balances on the $20 million revolving credit facility
from InterCept and Harland. The revolving credit facility will remain in place,
and will be used to fund Netzee's future operations. The amended facility will
expire on November 2, 2002. As of February 5, 2001, Netzee had approximately
$8.2 million outstanding under this facility.

Netzee will record a loss of approximately $7.5 million on the sale of the
Netcal assets.

The assets sold were primarily located in Calabasas Hills, California and were
used principally in Netzee's business of developing, marketing and distributing
regulatory reporting software and related products and services to financial
institutions.

Netzee was formed as a Georgia corporation in August 1999 to be merged with
Direct Access Interactive, Inc. ("Direct Access"), a company that was formed in
October 1996 to provide Internet and telephone banking products and services.
InterCept acquired Direct Access as a wholly-owned subsidiary in March 1999.
InterCept currently owns approximately 28% of Netzee's common stock. Netzee's
CEO and director Donny R. Jackson is also a director of InterCept. Several of
Netzee's directors are also directors of InterCept. Additionally, Netzee has a
marketing agreement with InterCept and sublets certain office space from
InterCept. InterCept also sublets certain office space from Netzee.

As a result of Netzee's purchase of certain assets from Harland in November
2000, Harland currently owns approximately 16% of Netzee's common stock.

Notes to Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30,
2000, was prepared as if the sale occurred on such date. The following unaudited
condensed consolidated statements of operations give effect to the sale as of
the beginning of the periods presented. The unaudited pro forma condensed
consolidated statements of operations do not purport to represent what our
results of operations actually would have been if the sale had occurred as of
such date or what such results will be for any future periods. The unaudited pro
forma condensed consolidated financial statements are derived from our
historical financial statements and the assumptions and adjustments described in
the accompanying notes. We believe that all adjustments necessary to present
fairly such unaudited financial information have been made. The unaudited pro
forma financial data should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes
thereto.

(a)      Reflects the approximate net cash proceeds from the assets sold.
(b)      Reflects the cash proceeds from the assets sold that were used to pay
         down the credit facility and reflects the conversion of the
         $5 million promissory note from Harland to participation in $20
         million credit facility.
(c)      Reflects the elimination of the carrying value of the assets and
         liabilities sold net of the loss on the sale.
(d)      Reflects the accrual for costs incurred on the sale of the assets.
(e)      Reflects the elimination of the accumulated deficit related to the
         assets sold net of the loss on the sale.
(f)      Reflects the elimination of the income and expenses related to the
         assets sold.
