Item 5. Other Events.
On October 20, 1998, Data Processing Resources Corporation ("DPRC") and DPRC
Acquisition Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of DPRC ("Merger Sub"), entered
into a letter agreement, dated October 20, 1998, with Systems & Programming
Consultants, Inc. ("SPC") and certain shareholders of SPC (the "Letter
Agreement") amending the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated June 16, 1998, by
and among DPRC, Merger Sub, SPC and certain shareholders of SPC (the "Merger
Agreement"), as amended October 13, 1998. Following the merger, SPC will be a
wholly-owned subsidiary of DPRC.
Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, the structure of the merger and the structure
of the merger consideration have remained the same. However, the aggregate
implied value has been changed from $87.5 million to $71.5 million and the price
per share of DPRC common stock to be used in calculating the exchange ratio of
the number of shares of DPRC common stock to be received by SPC shareholders has
changed from $29.33 to $21.00. The Letter Agreement also increases the number
of stock options to purchase shares of DPRC common stock from 175,000 to 250,000
to be granted to employees of SPC following the merger under DPRC's existing
stock option plan at an exercise price equal to the then current fair market
value of DPRC common stock. The total number of shares of DPRC common stock
anticipated to be issued in connection with the Merger is estimated to be
between 2.8 million and 3.3 million. Of such number of shares, approximately
two-thirds are expected to be issued upon consummation of the Merger and the
remaining number of shares, approximately one-third, will be issued from time to
time thereafter upon exercise of the stock options under the stock option plan
being assumed by DPRC.
The Merger will require the approval of the shareholders of DPRC and SPC and is
subject to other customary closing conditions. The Merger is expected to be
consummated in the fourth calendar quarter of 1998; however, no assurance can be
given that the consummation of the Merger will occur or will occur on this
timetable. DPRC expects to account for the Merger as a pooling of interests.
A copy of the Letter Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is
incorporated by reference herein.
