<PAGE> 3
ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER.
This statement on Schedule 13D relates to the ordinary shares, par
value NIS 0.01 per share (the "Shares"), of New Dimension Software Ltd., an
Israeli corporation ("the Company"). BMC Software, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("BMC") may be deemed to own beneficially certain Shares pursuant to the
Shareholder Agreements described below. BMC has commenced an offer to purchase
any and all of the outstanding Shares of the Company at a purchase price of
$52.50 per Share, net to the seller in cash (the "Offer Price"), upon the terms
and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated March
11, 1999 (the "Offer to Purchase"), which is included as an exhibit hereto and
incorporated herein by reference, and a related Letter of Transmittal (which,
together with any amendments or supplements thereto, collectively constitute
the "Offer"). The address of the principal executive offices of the Company is
Building 7, Atidim Industrial Park, Devora Hanevia Street, Tel Aviv, 61581,
Israel.
BMC and the Company have entered into a Share Purchase and Tender
Agreement (the "Tender Agreement") dated as of March 7, 1999. BMC has also
entered into shareholder agreements with (i) Yossie Hollander and (ii) Einav
Computer Systems Ltd., an Israeli corporation ("ECS"), Roni A. Einav and Dalia
Prashker-Katzman (each a "Principal Shareholder" and collectively, the
"Principal Shareholders"), each dated as of March 7, 1999 (the "Shareholder
Agreements"). The Tender Agreement and the Shareholder Agreements are more
fully described under Items 4 and 5 below.
If BMC is successful in acquiring at least ninety (90%) of the
Shares not presently owned by BMC and its subsidiaries within four months of
the date of the Offer to Purchase, BMC will be required, pursuant to Section
236 of the Companies' Ordinance (New Version) 5743-1983 of the State of Israel
(the "Companies' Ordinance"), to declare by notice to the remaining
shareholders that it is unilaterally acquiring (the "Compulsory Acquisition")
the remaining Shares not yet held by it on the same terms as those set forth in
the Offer. Upon consummation of the Compulsory Acquisition, the Company will
become a wholly owned subsidiary of BMC.
ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.
This statement is filed by BMC Software, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("BMC"). BMC develops, markets and supports high performance
systems management software products.
Appendix I attached hereto sets forth certain additional information
with respect to each executive officer and director of BMC. The filing of this
statement on Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission that any
person listed on Appendix I hereto is, for the purposes of Section 13(d) or (g)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the beneficial owner of any
securities covered by this statement.
During the last five years, neither BMC nor, to the best knowledge
of BMC, any executive officer or director of BMC, listed on Appendix I, has
been (i) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or
similar misdemeanors) or (ii) a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such
proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining
future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to,
federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such
laws.
<PAGE> 4
ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.
No separate consideration (other than the Offer Price to be received
upon consummation of the Offer) has been or will be paid to the Principal
Shareholders in connection with their execution of the Shareholder Agreements.
The total amount of funds required by BMC to consummate the Offer,
including cash payments related to the cancellation of outstanding options of
the Company (the "Company Options"), and the Compulsory Acquisition and to pay
related fees and expenses is estimated to be approximately $700 million.
The consideration for the Shares to be purchased pursuant to the
Offer and the Compulsory Acquisition is expected to be funded from BMC's
working capital and loans from U.S. banks. BMC is currently negotiating with
Chase Bank of Texas, N.A., NationsBank N.A., and ABN AMRO Bank N.V. (the
"Proposed Lenders") to obtain a credit facility in an aggregate amount of
$500,000,000 (the "Proposed Credit Facility"). On March 10, 1999, BMC received
commitment letters from each of the Proposed Lenders.
The Proposed Credit Facility will consist of $500,000,000 of
availability under: (a) a 364-day revolving credit facility for general
corporate purposes, including the funding of the Offer, with renewal options by
the Proposed Lenders and with a one-year option granted to BMC, which will
enable BMC to convert the revolving loans into a one-year term loan, and (b) a
competitive bid facility, which will enable BMC to request bids from the
Proposed Lenders for loans on a negotiated basis up to the existing
availability under the Proposed Credit Facility. If BMC elects to convert
revolving borrowings to a term loan, such term loan must be repaid within one
year with interest payable at specified margin levels above LIBOR. Interest
rates for loans under the Proposed Credit Facility are based upon a margin
above LIBOR within current market parameters and certain financial ratios of
BMC.
The Proposed Credit Facility will include, among others, covenants
regarding the maintenance by BMC of: (a) at least $300,000,000 in cash and
marketable securities and (b) certain financial ratios. The Proposed Credit
Facility will also contain other typical and customary covenants as well as
customary events of default.
The Proposed Credit Facility requires BMC to pay an arrangement fee
on the aggregate commitment of the Proposed Lenders together with a facility
fee (ranging from 10 to 20 basis points) on the drawn and undrawn portion of
the aggregate commitments of the Proposed Lenders.
Any loans under the Proposed Credit Facility will be repaid over
time from a variety of potential sources including, but not limited to, funds
generated internally by BMC and its subsidiaries. The Offer is not conditioned
on consummation of the Proposed Credit Facility.
<PAGE> 5
The above summary of the Proposed Credit Facility is qualified in
its entirety by reference to the commitment letters from the Proposed Lenders,
which are included as exhibits hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.
In accordance with the Tender Agreement, and as described in the
Offer to Purchase, the purpose of the Offer and the Compulsory Acquisition is
to acquire control of, and the entire equity interest in, the Company.
In executing the Tender Agreement, the Company consented to the
Offer and represented and warranted that its board of directors has (i)
unanimously determined as of the date of the Tender Agreement that the Offer is
fair to an in the best interest of the shareholders of the Company and (ii)
resolved, subject to the directors of the Company not having the right to
tender their Shares or the right to receive any compensation for services
provided to the Company pursuant to certain releases executed by the directors,
unless the Company's shareholders shall have approved such right, to recommend
acceptance of the Offer by the shareholders of the Company.
The Company has agreed to hold an extraordinary general meeting of
its shareholders (the "Special Meeting") for purposes of approving: (i) the
right of certain directors of the Company to sell their Shares to BMC pursuant
to the Offer, (ii) the right of certain directors of the Company to receive
compensation from the Company against a release of such directors' claim
regarding an alleged promise by the Company to issue such directors stock
options, (iii) a Settlement and Release Agreement, dated as of March 7, 1999,
among the Company, the Principal Shareholders and certain directors, and (iv)
by special resolution, an amendment to the Company's Articles of Association to
provide that the holders of at least 60% of the issued and outstanding Shares
of the Company shall be entitled to appoint and remove any and all members of
the board of directors of the Company, by means of written notice signed by
such shareholders to the Company (collectively, the "Shareholder Approvals").
The Company's board of directors has recommended that the shareholders give the
Shareholder Approvals, upon which the Offer is conditioned, at the Special
Meeting.
Subject to obtaining the Shareholder Approvals, promptly upon the
purchase by BMC pursuant to the Offer of such number of Shares representing at
least 60% of the outstanding Shares, and from time to time thereafter, BMC
shall be entitled to designate the entire board of directors of the Company,
and the Company shall, upon request of BMC, take all actions necessary to
enable such BMC designees to be so elected or appointed.
If BMC is successful in acquiring at least ninety (90%) of the
Shares not presently owned by BMC and its subsidiaries within four months of
the date of the Offer to Purchase, BMC will be required, subject to
satisfaction of the conditions contained in the Tender Agreement, to consummate
the Compulsory Acquisition. Upon consummation of the Compulsory Acquisition,
the Company will become a wholly owned subsidiary of BMC.
<PAGE> 6
The Company has agreed that from the date of the Tender Agreement
until the date Shares are accepted for payment under the Offer (the "Closing
Date"), the Company shall, and shall cause it subsidiaries to (except as
otherwise required or contemplated by the Tender Agreement or as required by
applicable law): (i) use all commercially reasonable efforts to conduct its
business and the business of its subsidiaries in all material respects only in
the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practice; (ii) not
amend its Articles of Association or Memorandum of Association or other
organizational or governing documents or declare, set aside or pay any dividend
or other distribution or payment in cash, stock or property in respect of its
capital stock or acquire, directly or indirectly, any of its capital stock;
(iii) not issue, grant, sell or pledge or agree or authorize the issuance,
grant, sale or pledge of any shares of, or rights of any kind to acquire any
shares of, its capital stock other than Shares issuable upon the exercise of
stock options outstanding on the date of the Tender Agreement; (iv) not
acquire, sell, transfer, lease or encumber any material assets except in the
ordinary course of business and consistent with past practice; (v) use all
commercially reasonable efforts to preserve intact its business organizations
and the business organizations of its subsidiaries, and to keep available the
services of its present key officers and employees; provided, however, that the
Company shall not be required to make any payments or enter into or amend any
contractual arrangements or understandings, except in the ordinary course of
business and consistent with past practice and, provided further, that the
foregoing shall not restrict the Company in any way from terminating the
employment of its employees, other than its present key officers and employees;
(vi) not adopt a plan of complete or partial liquidation or adopt resolutions
providing for the complete or partial liquidation, dissolution, consolidation,
amalgamation, merger, restructuring or recapitalization of the Company or any
of it subsidiaries; (vii) not grant any severance or termination pay (otherwise
than pursuant to policies in effect on the date of the Tender Agreement) to, or
enter into any employment agreement with, any of its executive officers or
directors; (viii) not, except in the ordinary course of business consistent
with past practice or pursuant to obligations imposed by collective bargaining
agreements, increase the compensation payable or to become payable to its
officers or employees, enter into any contract or other binding commitment in
respect of any such increase with any of its directors, officers or other
employees or any director, officer or other employee of its subsidiaries, and
not establish, adopt, enter into, make any new grants or awards under or amend,
any collective bargaining agreement or Company Plan (as defined in the Tender
Agreement), except as required by applicable law, including any obligation to
engage in good faith collective bargaining, to maintain tax-qualified status or
as may be required by any Company Plan as of the date of the Tender Agreement;
(ix) not settle or compromise any material claims or litigation or, except in
the ordinary course of business, modify, amend or terminate any of its material
contracts or waive, release or assign any material rights or claims, or make
any payment, direct or indirect, of any material liability before the same
becomes due and payable in accordance with its terms; (x) not take any action,
other than reasonable and usual actions in the ordinary course of business and
consistent with past practice with respect to accounting policies or procedures
(including tax accounting policies and procedures), except as may be required
by the Commission or the Financial Accounting Standards Board; (xi) not make
any material tax election or permit any material insurance policy naming it as
a beneficiary or a loss payable payee to be canceled or terminated without
notice to BMC, except in the ordinary course of business consistent with past
practice; (xii) not incur or pay or agree to pay transaction and/or finder's
fees in excess of those disclosed to BMC in the Tender Agreement; (xiii) not
amend the releases executed by certain directors of the Company or incur or pay
or agree to pay any amount in excess of $7.5 million
<PAGE> 7
(including all legal fees and other expenses of such directors) in the
aggregate plus value added tax as prescribed by law against a duly issued value
added tax invoice, less any amounts required to be withheld pursuant to
applicable tax regulations, pursuant to the releases executed by certain
directors; and (xiv) not authorize or enter into an agreement to do any of the
foregoing.
The Tender Agreement provides that, except as set forth in the
following paragraph, the Company will not ( and shall not permit any of its
subsidiaries to, and shall use its best efforts to cause its officers,
directors and employees and any investment banker, attorney, accountant, or
other agent retained by it or any of its subsidiaries not to) directly or
indirectly (i) solicit, initiate, facilitate or knowingly encourage (including
by way of furnishing information) any inquiry or the making of any proposal
which constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to lead to, any acquisition or
purchase by a third party (other than BMC or an affiliate of BMC) of a
substantial amount of assets of, or any equity interest in, the Company or any
merger, consolidation, business combination, sale of securities,
recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or similar transaction involving the
Company (collectively, "Company Transaction Proposals") or agree to or endorse
any Company Transaction Proposal or (ii) propose, enter into or participate in
any discussions or negotiations regarding any Company Transaction Proposal, or
furnish to another person (other than BMC or a representative of BMC) any
information with respect to its business, properties or assets for the purpose
of facilitating any Company Transaction Proposal. The Company has also agreed
that, except as set forth in the following paragraph, its board of directors
will not change its recommendation of the Offer or the Shareholder Approvals.
The Tender Agreement provides that neither the foregoing provisions
or any other provision in Tender Agreement shall prohibit the Company from (i)
furnishing information pursuant to an appropriate confidentiality letter
concerning the Company and its businesses, properties or assets to a third
party who has made a Superior Proposal (as defined below), (ii) engaging in
discussions or negotiations with a third party who has made a Superior Proposal
or (iii) following receipt of a Superior Proposal, taking and disclosing to its
shareholders a position (including a positive recommendation) with respect
thereto or changing, withdrawing or withholding the approval or recommendation
by the Company's board of directors of the Offer, but in each case referred to
in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) only after the board of directors of
the Company concludes in good faith following advice of its independent
counsel, evidenced by a written opinion, that such action is necessary in order
for the board of directors of the Company to comply with its fiduciary
obligations to the Company's shareholders under applicable Israeli law. If the
board of directors of the Company receives a Company Transaction Proposal, then
the Company shall immediately inform BMC of the terms and conditions of such
proposal and the identity of the person making it and shall keep BMC fully
informed of the status and details of any such Company Transaction Proposal and
of all steps it is taking in response to such Company Transaction Proposal.
"Superior Proposal" is defined to mean a bona fide Company Transaction Proposal
that the board of directors of the Company determines in good faith after
consultation with (and based in part on the advice of) its independent
financial advisors to be more favorable to the Company and the Company's
shareholders than the Offer, which Company Transaction Proposal is not subject
to any material contingencies relating to financing.
<PAGE> 8
The Tender Agreement provides that if (i) the Tender Agreement is
terminated by BMC or the Company as a result of the Company withdrawing,
withholding or modifying in a manner adverse to BMC its approval of the Tender
Agreement or the Offer, or (ii) (A) prior to the Closing Date, there is
publicly announced by a third party (other than BMC or an affiliate of BMC) a
proposal for an Alternative Company Transaction (as defined below); (B) the
Offer is terminated or expires as a result of the failure of a condition; and
(C) either the Company's board of directors recommends or approves an
acquisition agreement which provides for an Alternative Company Transaction or
an Alternative Company Transaction is consummated, in each case with any third
party which after the date of the Tender Agreement and before termination of
the Tender Agreement has publicly announced a proposal for Alternative Company
Transaction, in either case prior to twelve months after the date of
termination of the Tender Agreement, then, in any such event (unless the Tender
Agreement has been terminated by the Company as a result of a breach of the
agreement by BMC), the Company shall pay to BMC simultaneously with termination
by the BMC in the case of the occurrence of any of the events specified in
clause (i) above, and immediately upon the first to occur of the entering into
an agreement providing for, or the consummation of, an Alternative Company
Transaction in the case of clause (ii) above (by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to an account designated by BMC for such purpose), a fee in an
amount equal to $25.0 million.
The term "Alternative Company Transaction" means any transaction
pursuant to which (i) any person, entity or group (within the meaning of
Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than BMC or any affiliate of BMC)
(each, a "Third Party") acquires 50% or more of the outstanding Shares, (ii) a
Third Party acquires 25% or more of the total assets of the Company taken as a
whole, (iii) a Third Party merges, consolidates or combines in any other way
with the Company other than in a transaction in which holders of Shares
continue to own at least 75% of the equity of the surviving corporation, or
(iv) the Company distributes or transfers to its shareholders, by dividend or
otherwise, assets (including stock of any subsidiary) constituting 25% or more
of the market value or earning power of the Company on a consolidated basis.
The Offer is conditioned upon, among other things, (i) there being
validly tendered and not withdrawn prior to 12:00 midnight, New York City Time,
on April 8, 1999 (unless such period is extended in accordance with the Tender
Agreement and the Offer) a number of Shares which constitutes at least ninety
percent (90%) of the Shares then issued and outstanding and not owned by BMC or
its subsidiaries determined in accordance with Section 236 of the Companies'
Ordinance (the "90% Condition"), (ii) satisfaction of certain regulatory
conditions, including the expiration of the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust
Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, (iii) certain approvals related to the
Offer by the shareholders of the Company at the Special Meeting of such
shareholders, and (iv) certain other conditions.
The above summary of the Tender Agreement and the Offer to Purchase
is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Tender Agreement and the Offer
to Purchase, which are included as exhibits hereto and incorporated herein by
reference.
<PAGE> 9
The purchase of Shares by BMC pursuant to the Offer will reduce the
number of Shares that might otherwise trade publicly and will reduce the number
of holders of Shares, which could adversely affect the liquidity and market
value of the remaining Shares held by the public.
Depending upon the number of Shares purchased pursuant to the Offer,
the Shares may no longer meet the requirements of Nasdaq for continued listing
and may be delisted from Nasdaq. According to Nasdaq's published guidelines,
Nasdaq would consider delisting the Shares if, among other things, the number
of record holders of at least 100 Shares should fall below 400, the number of
publicly held Shares (exclusive of holdings of officers, directors any other
person who is the beneficial owner of more than 10% of the total Shares
outstanding ("Nasdaq Excluded Holdings")) should fall below 750,000 or the
aggregate market value of publicly held Shares (exclusive of Nasdaq Excluded
Holdings) should fall below $5,000,000. If, as a result of the purchase of
Shares pursuant to the Offer or otherwise, the Shares no longer meet the
requirements of Nasdaq for continued listing and the listing of the Shares is
discontinued, the market for the Shares could be adversely affected.
The Shares are currently registered under the Exchange Act. Such
registration may be terminated pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act
upon application by the Company to the Commission if the Shares are not listed
on a national securities exchange and there are fewer than 300 record holders.
The termination of the registration of the Shares under the Exchange Act would
substantially reduce the information required to be furnished by the Company to
holders of Shares and to the Commission and would make certain provisions of
the Exchange Act no longer applicable to the Shares.
BMC intends to seek to cause the Company to apply for delisting of
the Shares from Nasdaq and terminate the registration of the Shares under the
Exchange Act as soon after the completion of the Offer as the requirements for
such delisting and termination are met.
ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
(a) and (b). Concurrently with the execution of the Tender
Agreement, BMC has entered into shareholder agreements with (i) Yossie
Hollander and (ii) Einav Computer Systems Ltd., an Israeli corporation ("ECS"),
Roni A. Einav and Dalia Prashker-Katzman (each a "Principal Shareholder" and
collectively, the "Principal Shareholders"), each dated as of March 7, 1999
(the "Shareholder Agreements"). ECS is owned by Roni A. Einav and Dalia
Prashker-Katzman. As of the date of the Shareholder Agreements, Yossie
Hollander held an aggregate of 3,741,250 Shares and no Company Options; Einav
Computer Systems held an aggregate of 3,741,250 Shares; Roni A. Einav held an
aggregate of 23,000 Company Options and Dalia Prashker-Katzman held no Company
Options. The aggregate number of Shares covered by the Shareholder Agreements,
as of the date thereof (based on information provided by the Company as of such
date), was 7,482,500 Shares, or 61% of the issued and outstanding Shares as of
such date (in each case excluding Shares issuable upon exercise of the
foregoing Company Options). BMC may be deemed to share voting and investment
control over all of such Shares.
<PAGE> 10
The following is a summary of the material terms of such Shareholder
Agreements. This summary is not a complete description of the terms and
conditions thereof and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full
text thereof, which is incorporated herein by reference.
As used in the Shareholders Agreements:
"Applicable Shares" means all Shares that are beneficially
owned (as defined in the Shareholders Agreements) by the
Principal Shareholder or that become beneficially owned by the
Principal Shareholder prior to the Termination Date;
"Offer Termination Date" means the date the Offer terminates or
expires without the purchase of Shares thereunder; provided,
however, that if BMC initiates a new Offer under the terms of
the Tender Agreement on or before midnight, central time in the
United States on the 10th day following such date, the Offer
Termination Date shall mean the date such subsequent Offer
terminates or expires without the purchase of Shares
thereunder; provided, however, that the Offer Termination Date
will not be later than the date of termination of the Tender
Agreement; and
"Termination Date" means the date ending on the first to occur
of: (1) the Closing Date; (2) the Offer Termination Date; or
(3) midnight, central time in the United States, on the date
all of the conditions to the Offer have been satisfied (except
for the conditions relating to (i) the truthfulness of the
Company's representations and warranties and (ii) the
occurrence of any change or effect that is materially adverse
to the business or financial condition, assets, liabilities, or
results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries taken
as a whole), and BMC elects to terminate the Tender Agreement
without the purchase of Shares thereunder; provided, however,
that, notwithstanding subparagraphs (2) and (3) above, if after
the date of the Shareholder Agreements (x) any person, entity
or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the
Exchange Act) (other than the BMC or any affiliate of BMC)
acquires more than 5% of the outstanding Shares and fails to
tender such Shares in the Offer and continues to hold such
Shares and the Offer is terminated as a result of the failure
of the 90% Condition to be satisfied, the Termination Date
shall be the date 150 days after the Offer Termination Date, or
(y) there is a public announcement of, or the disclosure to the
management, board of directors, shareholders or advisors of the
Company of, a Company Transaction Proposal, and the board of
directors of the Company rejects such Company Transaction
Proposal and continues to recommend the Offer and the Offer is
terminated as a result of the failure of the 90% Condition to
be satisfied, the Termination Date shall be the date 120 days
after the Offer Termination Date, or (z) there is a public
announcement of, or the disclosure to the management, board of
directors, shareholders or advisors of the Company of, a
Company Transaction Proposal, and the board of directors of the
Company withdraws, withholds or modifies in a manner adverse to
BMC its approval of the Tender Agreement or the Offer pursuant
to the applicable provisions of the Tender Agreement, and the
<PAGE> 11
Offer is terminated as a result of the failure of the 90%
Condition to be satisfied, the Termination Date shall be the
date 150 days after the Offer Termination Date.
The Shareholder Agreements provide that each Principal Shareholder
will (i) tender all of such Principal Shareholder's Applicable Shares into the
Offer promptly, and in any event no later than the third business day following
the commencement of the Offer, and (ii) not withdraw any Applicable Shares so
tendered prior to the Offer Termination Date.
In addition, the Shareholder Agreements provide that in the event
that (i) the 90% Condition is not satisfied, (ii) BMC notifies the Principal
Shareholder that BMC is prepared to close the Offer but for the fact that the
90% Condition is not satisfied, and (iii) the tender by the Principal
Shareholder of the Shares underlying such Principal Shareholder's Company
Options, either alone or when aggregated with other Company Options, would
cause the 90% Condition to be satisfied, then such Principal Shareholder hereby
agrees that, at any time prior to the Termination Date, immediately upon the
request of BMC, such Principal Shareholder shall exercise all Company Options
beneficially owned by such Principal Shareholder and immediately tender the
Shares received upon such exercise into the Offer (and not withdraw such Shares
so tendered). The Shareholder Agreements provide that BMC will advance to the
Principal Shareholders the funds necessary to pay the exercise price of such
Company Options, and the Principal Shareholders shall repay BMC the amount of
such advance, without interest, immediately upon receipt of the Offer Price by
such Principal Shareholder for the Shares received upon such exercise. Except
as may be required by the foregoing, the Principal Shareholders have agreed not
to exercise any Company Options owned by them.
Pursuant to the Shareholders Agreements, each Principal Shareholder
has granted BMC an irrevocable option (the "Purchase Options") to purchase all
of such Principal Shareholder's Applicable Shares at the Offer Price (as such
may be increased in connection with the Offer), subject to the terms of the
Shareholder Agreements. The Purchase Options may be exercised in whole at any
time, and in part from time to time, from and after the Offer Termination Date
and ending as of the Termination Date; provided, however, that each Purchase
Option must be exercised in a proportionate amount among the Principal
Shareholders with the other Purchase Options.
The Shareholder Agreements provide that until the Termination Date,
at any meeting of the holders of Shares however called, or in any other
circumstance upon which the vote, consent or other approval of holders of
Shares is sought, the Principal Shareholders shall vote (or cause to be voted)
their issued and outstanding Applicable Shares: (i) against any action or
agreement that would result in a breach in any material respect of any
covenant, representation or warranty or any other material obligation or
agreement of the Company under the Tender Agreement or the Shareholder
Agreements; (ii) against the following actions (other than the transactions
contemplated by the Tender Agreement): (A) any Company Transaction Proposal,
and (B) to the extent that such (1) are intended to, or could reasonably be
expected to, impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, or materially adversely
affect the Offer, or the transactions contemplated by the Tender Agreement or
the Shareholder Agreements or (2) are intended to, or could reasonably be
expected to, implement or lead to any Company Transaction Proposal: (x) any
change in a majority of the persons who constitute the board of directors
<PAGE> 12
of the Company; (y) any change in the capitalization of the Company or any
amendment of the Company's Memorandum and Articles of Association (other than
as expressly contemplated by the Tender Agreement); or (z) any other material
change in the Company's corporate structure or business; and (iii) for the
proposals required under the Tender Agreement to be presented at the
Special Meeting and any and all other matters contemplated by the Tender
Agreement and presented at the Special Meeting. In addition, each Principal
Shareholder has granted to BMC (or its nominees) an irrevocable proxy and
attorney-in-fact (with full power of substitution), until the Termination Date,
to vote its Applicable Shares, or to grant a consent or approval in respect of
its Applicable Shares on any and all matters relating to the Tender Agreement,
the Offer or any Company Transaction Proposal. Each Principal Shareholder has
further agreed, until the Termination Date, not to take any action (including
the tender of any Shares) that could reasonably be expected to, implement or
lead to any Company Transaction Proposal.
The Shareholder Agreements provide that, in the event the Applicable
Shares of a Principal Shareholder are sold, transferred, exchanged, canceled or
disposed of in connection with or as a result of any Company Transaction
Proposal that is in existence on, or that has been otherwise made prior to the
Termination Date (an "Alternative Disposition") then, within five business days
after the closing of such Alternative Disposition, such Principal Shareholder
shall tender and pay to, or shall cause to be tendered and paid to, BMC (or its
designee), in immediately available funds, the Profit realized from such
Alternative Disposition, less any withholdings. For the purposes of the
foregoing, "Profit" means an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (a) the per
Share value of all consideration received in connection with an Alternative
Disposition (valued and determined as set forth in the Shareholder Agreements)
over (b) the Offer Price, multiplied by Principal Shareholder's Applicable
Shares sold, transferred, exchanged, canceled or disposed of in such
Alternative Disposition.
The Shareholder Agreements include an unconditional release by each
Principal Shareholder of all claims, demands, liabilities, responsibilities,
disputes, causes of action and similar matters of such Principal Shareholder
against the Company and its subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions
relating to breaches of the Shareholder Agreements or the Tender Agreement.
In connection with the execution by BMC and the Principal
Shareholders of the Shareholder Agreements, each Principal Shareholder has
agreed that the Applicable Shares owned by such Principal Shareholder (with
certain exceptions in the case of Yossie Hollander) and any Shares issuable to
such Principal Shareholder upon exercise of Company Options shall be placed
with an escrow agent within five business days after the date of the
Shareholder Agreements, to be disbursed in accordance with the provisions of
the Shareholder Agreement.
In addition to the Shareholder Agreements, BMC has entered into an
Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, dated as of October 31, 1998, among Boole
& Babbage Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Boole"), BMC and a subsidiary of BMC
(the "Merger Agreement"). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, upon satisfaction
of the conditions to closing thereunder, including approval by the Boole
shareholders, Boole will be acquired by BMC by means of a merger (the
"Merger"). The closing of the Merger is expected to occur as soon as possible
after receipt of Boole shareholder approval at a special meeting of the Boole
shareholders scheduled for March 30, 1999. Such closing will be subject
<PAGE> 13
to obtaining such approval and to certain other conditions. Boole has advised
BMC that it owns an aggregate of 452,800 Shares, representing approximately
3.7% of the issued and outstanding Shares as of the date of the Tender
Agreement. BMC has agreed in the Tender Agreement to use its reasonable efforts
to cause Boole to tender such Shares into the Offer. If the Merger closes
before the Offer expires, BMC will be deemed to own such Shares.
(c). Other than the transactions described herein, neither BMC nor,
to the knowledge of the Company, any person listed on Appendix I, has effected
any transactions in Shares of the Company during the preceding sixty days.
(d) and (e). Not applicable.
