                                   ACXIOM CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

                                              CERTIFICATION

I, Jefferson D. Stalnaker, certify that:

1.   I have reviewed this annual report on Form 10-K of Acxiom Corporation;

2.   Based on my knowledge, this annual report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact
     or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the
     circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period
     covered by this annual report;

3.   Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial information included in this
     annual report, fairly present in all material respects the financial condition, results of
     operations and cash flows of the registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this annual
     report;

4.   The registrant's other certifying officer and I are responsible for establishing and maintaining
     disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for
     the registrant and we have:

     a)  designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls and
         procedures to be designed under our supervision, to ensure that material information relating
         to the registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others
         within those entities, particularly during the period in which this annual report is being
         prepared;

     b)  evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure controls and procedures and
         presented in this report our conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls
         and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this report based on such evaluation;
         and

     c)  Disclosed in this report any change in the registrant's internal control over financial
         reporting that occurred during the registrant's most recent fiscal quarter (the registrant's
         fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) that has materially affected, or is
         reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant's internal control over financial
         reporting; and

5.   The registrant's other certifying officer and I have disclosed, based on our most recent
     evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to the registrant's auditors and the
     audit committee of the registrant's board of directors:

     a)  all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal
         control over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the
         registrant's ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information; and

     b)  any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a
         significant role in the registrant's internal control over financial reporting.
