Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On
January 16, 2007, Blackbaud, Inc. acquired privately owned Target Software, Inc. and Target
Analysis Group, Inc., companies that were related through common
ownership based in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The acquisition was
completed pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of the same date, pursuant to which
Blackbaud acquired all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Target Software and Target
Analysis. Target Software and Target Analysis will continue as wholly owned subsidiaries of
Blackbaud.
Under the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, Blackbaud initially paid approximately $54.0
million to the stockholders of Target Software and Target Analysis, which includes $7.8 million
that was placed into an escrow account to satisfy any indemnification claims pursuant to the terms
of the Stock Purchase Agreement. The stockholders of Target Software and Target Analysis are also
entitled to receive up to an additional $2.4 million pursuant to a one-year earnout arrangement.
Blackbaud also paid approximately $2.1 million to holders of options to purchase shares of Target
Software and Target Analysis stock as well as $800,000 to certain senior executives of Target
Software and Target Analysis in connection with entering into noncompetition agreements.
Blackbaud financed the acquisitions through a combination of cash and borrowings under its credit
facility with Wachovia Bank, N.A. The Stock Purchase Agreement was negotiated
between Blackbaud, the Target entities and the stockholders of the Target Entities. Prior to the
acquisition, there were no material relationships between Blackbaud, the Target entities, any of
their respective affiliates, directors or officers or any associates of such directors or officers,
or any of the stockholders of the Target entities.
Charles Longfield, who was the chief executive officer, a director and a significant stockholder of
the Target entities, will become chief scientist for Blackbaud. Lee Gartley, who was the
president, a director and a stockholder of the Target entities, will remain as president of the
Target entities as well as becoming a senior vice president of Blackbaud.
The summary description of the transaction set forth above is qualified in its entirety by the
terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, which is attached to this report as Exhibit 2.2. Blackbaud
issued a press release regarding the acquisition on January 16, 2007, a copy of which is attached
