ITEM 2.01 – Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

 

On February 22, 2005, Concord Communications, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation (“Concord”), completed its acquisition of 100% of the outstanding capital stock of privately held Aprisma Holdings, Inc. (“Aprisma”), the parent company of Aprisma Management Technologies, Inc., from sellers (the “Sellers”) affiliated with Gores Technology Group, LLC, for approximately $93 million in cash, which cash payment was reduced by (i) approximately $1.77 million of net debt owing by Aprisma to certain of its lenders (which debt was paid off by Concord at the closing of the acquisition), and (ii) approximately $8.86 million, which amount will be used by Concord to satisfy certain present and future payment obligations owing by Aprisma under its equity participation plan, all in accordance with the Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”), dated as of January 8, 2005, by and among Concord and the Sellers.  Under the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, $8.1 million of the purchase price was placed in escrow for one year as security for the Sellers’ indemnity obligations under the Stock Purchase Agreement.
