ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.
HARVARD TRANSLATIONS, INC.
On May 18, 2000, Lionbridge completed its acquisition of all of the
capital stock of Harvard Translations, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation ("HT"),
by means of a merger (the "HT Merger") of HT Acquisition Corp., a Massachusetts
corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Lionbridge ("HT Merger Sub"), with
and into HT, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated as of
March 30, 2000 (the "HT Merger Agreement") by and among Lionbridge, HT Merger
Sub, HT and Robert C. Sprung. As a result of the HT Merger, HT became a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Lionbridge and will continue to operate as a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Lionbridge. The HT Merger was effected by the filing
of Articles of Merger with the Secretary of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on
May 18, 2000. The information contained in the joint press releases of
Lionbridge and HT dated March 31, 2000 and May 22, 2000, attached hereto as
Exhibits 99.5 and 99.6, respectively, is incorporated herein by this reference.
HT provides comprehensive translation and globalization services to
regulated industries as well as companies requiring specialized multilingual
publishing solutions.
Pursuant to the terms of the HT Merger Agreement, upon the effective
time of the HT Merger, each outstanding share of HT common stock was converted
into the right to receive 3.8864 shares (the "HT Conversion Ratio") of
Lionbridge common stock (subject to payment of cash in lieu of any fractional
shares). In addition, the $202,844 obligation of HT to Robert Sprung and all
accrued interest thereon was paid in full and cancelled in exchange for 13,820
shares of Lionbridge common stock. Each holder of HT common stock and/or debt
who was otherwise entitled to a fraction of a share of Lionbridge common stock
received cash in lieu thereof, equal to such fraction multiplied by $16.4063. As
a result of the HT Merger, upon the closing of the transaction on May 18, 2000,
Lionbridge issued an aggregate of 285,865 shares of Lionbridge common stock (the
"HT Shares") and $5.21 in cash in lieu of fractional shares of Lionbridge common
stock in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of HT common stock and in
payment in full of the $202,844 obligation of HT. In accordance with the terms
of the HT Merger Agreement and an Escrow Agreement dated May 18, 2000 by and
among Lionbridge, HT, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company (as Escrow Agent)
and Robert C. Sprung (as Indemnification Representative) (the "HT Escrow
Agreement"), 28,587 of the HT Shares have been placed in an escrow account until
the earlier of (i) the publication of Lionbridge's audited financial results for
the year ended December 31, 2000 and (ii) the one-year anniversary of the
closing of the HT Merger to secure certain indemnification obligations of HT
under the HT Merger Agreement.
The HT Shares issued in the HT Merger were issued in reliance on an
exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"). Consequently, all such HT Shares are subject to
restrictions on transfer under the applicable provisions of the Securities
Act and carry a legend reflecting such restrictions. In addition, the sole
former shareholder of HT has agreed not to dispose of any of the HT Shares
received by him in connection with the HT Merger until after the public
announcement of financial results covering at least thirty days of combined
operations of Lionbridge and HT. Such former shareholder of HT has also
entered into an Investment Agreement with Lionbridge (the "Investment
Agreement") with respect to the HT Shares. Pursuant to the terms of the HT
Merger Agreement and the Third Restated Registration Rights Agreement dated
May 22, 2000 between Lionbridge, the Lionbridge shareholders party to the
-2-
<PAGE>
Second Restated Registration Rights Agreement, the former affiliate shareholders
of INT'L.com and the former shareholder of HT (the "Registration Rights
Agreement"), Lionbridge has granted such former HT shareholder certain rights to
require Lionbridge to register under the Securities Act the HT Shares received
by him in connection with the HT Merger.
Also, pursuant to the terms of the HT Merger Agreement, upon the
effective time of the HT Merger, Lionbridge assumed HT's obligations under HT's
1997 Stock Option Plan, and all stock options of HT granted pursuant to such
plan, whether vested or unvested, outstanding as of the effective time of the HT
Merger. The number of shares of Lionbridge common stock to be issued upon
exercise of any such stock option is determined by multipying the number of
shares of HT common stock underlying such option by the HT Conversion Ratio
(rounded down to the nearest whole share). The exercise price to be paid upon
any such exercise is determined by dividing the exercise price per share of HT
common stock for such option by the HT Conversion Ratio (rounded up to the
nearest whole cent). Assuming the exercise of all such options outstanding as of
the effective time of the HT Merger, Lionbridge will issue an additional 104,931
shares of Lionbridge common stock to the holders of HT stock options.
The purchase price and terms for the transaction were determined in
arms-length negotiations. The acquisition of HT is intended to qualify as a
tax-free reorganization under Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended. Lionbridge will account for the transaction under the
pooling-of-interests method of accounting.
The terms of the HT Merger are more fully described in the HT Merger
Agreement, the HT Escrow Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and the
Investment Agreement. A copy of the HT Merger Agreement is incorporated herein
by reference from Exhibit 10.54 to Lionbridge's Registration Statement on Form
S-4 (File No. 333-33750). Copies of the HT Escrow Agreement, the Registration
Rights Agreement and the Investment Agreement are filed as Exhibits 99.1, 99.2
and 99.3, respectively, hereto and are incorporated herein by this reference.
INT'L.COM, INC.
On May 22, 2000, Lionbridge completed its acquisition of all of the
capital stock of INT'L.com, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("INT'L.com"), by means
of a merger (the "INT'L.com Merger") of LTI Acquisition Corp., a Delaware
corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Lionbridge ("INT'L.com Merger Sub"),
with and into INT'L.com, pursuant to the Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan
of Reorganization dated as of March 30, 2000 (the "INT'L.com Merger Agreement")
by and among Lionbridge, INT'L.com Merger Sub and INT'L.com. As a result of the
INT'L.com Merger, INT'L.com became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lionbridge and
will continue to operate as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lionbridge. The
INT'L.com Merger was effected by the filing of a Certificate of Merger with the
Secretary of State of Delaware on May 22, 2000. The information contained in the
joint press releases of Lionbridge and INT'L.com dated January 20, 2000 and May
23, 2000, attached hereto as Exhibits 99.7 and 99.8, respectively, is
incorporated herein by this reference.
INT'L.com is a leading provider of technical and language services,
globalization services and multilingual Internet solutions to enterprises based
in the United States, Europe and Asia which are conducting business in markets
where the dominant language is other than English. INT'L.com's services include:
(i) Web site design, development, programming and real-time Web site maintenance
for e-commerce companies seeking to transact business with corporate partners

-3-
<PAGE>
intranets and extranets; (iii) localization of software codes to maintain their
functionality in languages other than English; (iv) assistance with the design
and positioning of global marketing campaigns; and (v) translation of printed
catalogs, marketing materials, product manuals from English to more than 30

Pursuant to the terms of the INT'L.com Merger Agreement, upon the
effective time of the INT'L.com Merger, (i) each outstanding share of INT'L.com
Series A common stock, INT'L.com Series B common stock, INT'L.com Series A
preferred stock and INT'L.com Series B preferred stock was converted into the
right to receive 0.7567 of a share (the "INT'L.com Conversion Ratio") of
Lionbridge common stock; (ii) each outstanding share of INT'L.com Series C
preferred stock was converted into the right to receive 5.4590 shares of
Lionbridge common stock; (iii) each outstanding share of INT'L.com Series D
preferred stock was converted into the right to receive 0.5472 of a share of
Lionbridge common stock; (iv) the $2,000,000 of convertible debt of INT'L.com
and all accrued interest thereon was paid in full and cancelled in exchange for
109,158 shares of Lionbridge common stock; and (v) the $5,000,000 of
subordinated debt of INT'L.com and all accrued interest thereon was paid in full
and cancelled in exchange for 258,360 shares of Lionbridge common stock. Each
holder of capital stock, convertible debt and/or subordinated debt of INT'L.com
who was otherwise entitled to a fraction of a share of Lionbridge common stock
received cash in lieu thereof, equal to such fraction multiplied by $19.7266. As
a result of the INT'L.com Merger, upon the closing of the transaction on May 22,
2000, Lionbridge issued an aggregate of 8,302,960 shares of Lionbridge common
stock (the "INT'L.com Shares") and $712.88 in cash in lieu of fractional shares
of Lionbridge common stock in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of
INT'L.com capital stock and in payment in full of the $2,000,000 of convertible
debt and $5,000,000 of subordinated debt of INT'L.com.
In accordance with the terms of the INT'L.com Merger Agreement and an
Escrow Agreement dated May 22, 2000 by and among Lionbridge, INT'L.com, American
Stock Transfer & Trust Company (as Escrow Agent) and Steven Fingerhood (as
Indemnification Representative) (the "INT'L.com Escrow Agreement"), 830,329 of
the INT'L.com Shares have been placed in an escrow account until the earlier of
(i) the publication of Lionbridge's audited financial results for the year ended
December 31, 2000 and (ii) the one-year anniversary of the closing of the
INT'L.com Merger to secure certain indemnification obligations of INT'L.com
under the INT'L.com Merger Agreement.
The INT'L.com Shares were registered under the Securities Act pursuant
to Lionbridge's Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-33750).
Consequently, all INT'L.com Shares acquired by the former shareholders of
INT'L.com who are not affiliates of Lionbridge or former affiliates of INT'L.com
are freely tradeable under the Securities Act as of the effective time of the
INT'L.com Merger. In connection with the INT'L.com Merger, however, the former
affiliates of INT'L.com and affiliates of Lionbridge have agreed not to dispose
of any shares of Lionbridge common stock owned by them until after the public
announcement of financial results covering at least thirty days of combined
operations of Lionbridge and INT'L.com. Pursuant to the terms of the INT'L.com
Merger Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement (as defined above),
Lionbridge has granted the former INT'L.com affiliate shareholders certain
rights to require Lionbridge to register under the Securities Act the INT'L.com
Shares received by them in connection with the INT'L.com Merger.
Also, pursuant to the terms of the INT'L.com Merger Agreement, upon the
effective time of the INT'L.com Merger, Lionbridge assumed INT'L.com's
obligations under INT'L.com's 1998 Stock Plan and International Language
Engineering Corporation's (a wholly-owned subsidiary of
-4-
<PAGE>
INT'L.com, "ILE") Amended and Restated 1997 Stock Option Plan, and all stock
options of INT'L.com and ILE granted pursuant to such plans, whether vested
or unvested, outstanding as of the effective time of the INT'L.com Merger.
The number of shares of Lionbridge common stock to be issued upon exercise of
any such stock option is determined by multipying the number of shares of
INT'L.com common stock underlying such option by the INT'L.com Conversion
Ratio (rounded down to the nearest whole share). The exercise price to be paid
upon any such exercise is determined by dividing the exercise price per share
of INT'L.com common stock for such option by the INT'L.com Conversion Ratio
(rounded up to the nearest whole cent). Assuming the exercise of all such
options outstanding as of the effective time of the INT'L.com Merger,
Lionbridge will issue an additional 641,010 shares of Lionbridge common stock
to the holders of INT'L.com and ILE stock options.
The purchase price and terms for the transaction were determined in
arms-length negotiations. The acquisition of INT'L.com is intended to qualify as
a tax-free reorganization under Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended. Lionbridge will account for the transaction under the
pooling-of-interests method of accounting.
The terms of the INT'L.com Merger are more fully described in the
INT'L.com Merger Agreement, the INT'L.com Escrow Agreement and the Registration
Rights Agreement. A copy of the INT'L.com Merger Agreement is incorporated
herein by reference from Exhibit 10.53 to Lionbridge's Registration Statement on

hereto and are incorporated herein by this reference.
