Item 1. Security and Issuer

     This Rule 13e-1 Transaction Statement relates to the proposed purchase by the issuer, PeopleSoft, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), of up to $350 million of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share, to be effected from time to time in open market or privately negotiated purchases or otherwise, depending on market prices and other conditions. The purchases will be made pursuant to the Company’s $350 million share repurchase program, the authorization of which previously was announced on September 4, 2003. Any such purchases will be made on the NASDAQ National Market.

Item 2. Purposes of the Repurchases

     The Company’s Board of Directors believes that the proposed share repurchases are consistent with its goal of utilizing available cash for the benefit of its stockholders, in that (a) the reduction in the number of shares outstanding following the share repurchase will increase the relative percentage ownership of the Company by those stockholders who retain their shares, and (b) the reduction in the number of outstanding shares is expected to be accretive to earnings per share. The Company intends to hold all shares repurchased by it pursuant to the share repurchase program as treasury stock.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

     The Company intends to fund all share repurchases from cash surplus and general corporate funds generated from its operations.
