Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

 

Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 1, 2003, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 1 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among J.D. Edwards, Jersey Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of PeopleSoft (“Merger Sub”), and PeopleSoft, and subject to the conditions set forth therein (including adoption and approval of the Merger Agreement and the merger by the stockholders of J.D. Edwards, approval of the issuance of shares of PeopleSoft Common Stock by the stockholders of PeopleSoft and receipt of applicable regulatory approvals), Merger Sub will merge with and into J.D. Edwards and J.D. Edwards will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of PeopleSoft (such events constituting the “Merger”).

Edwards, a copy of the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2 (each, a “Voting Agreement” and, collectively, the “Voting Agreements”), whereby each Stockholder agreed, severally and not jointly, to vote all of the shares of PeopleSoft Common Stock beneficially owned by such Stockholder in favor of adoption and approval of the Merger

References to, and descriptions of, the Merger, the Merger Agreement and the Voting Agreements set forth herein are qualified in their entirety by reference to the copies of the Merger Agreement and the Voting Agreements included as Exhibits 1 and 2, respectively, to this Statement, which are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety where such references and descriptions appear.

 

Item 4: Purpose of Transaction

 

  (a)-(b)   As described in Item 3 above, this Statement relates to the acquisition of J.D. Edwards by PeopleSoft pursuant to a statutory merger of Merger Sub, a wholly-owned subsidiary of PeopleSoft, with and into J.D. Edwards, pursuant to which, at the effective time of the Merger, the separate existence of Merger Sub will cease and J.D. Edwards will continue as the Surviving Corporation and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of PeopleSoft. By virtue of the Merger, each holder of outstanding shares of J.D. Edwards Common Stock will receive, in exchange for each share of J.D. Edwards Common Stock held by such holder, 0.860 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of PeopleSoft (“PeopleSoft Common Stock”). In connection with the Merger, PeopleSoft will also assume each outstanding option to purchase J.D. Edwards Common Stock under J.D. Edwards’ existing stock option or employee stock purchase plans, and thereafter, each such option will represent the right to acquire a number of shares of PeopleSoft Common Stock, as adjusted based on the exchange ratio, with the exercise price adjusted accordingly.

 

         Pursuant to the Voting Agreements, each of the Stockholders has irrevocably appointed certain directors of J.D. Edwards as such Stockholder’s lawful attorneys and proxies with respect to certain prescribed matters related to the Merger. The foregoing proxies give the directors of J.D. Edwards the limited right to vote or deliver a consent with respect to each of the shares of PeopleSoft Common Stock beneficially owned by the Stockholders, at every meeting of the stockholders of PeopleSoft and in every written consent in lieu of such a meeting: (i) in favor of approval of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby; (ii) against any proposal that is intended, or is reasonably likely to result in the conditions of the Company’s obligations under the Merger Agreement not being fulfilled; and (iii) against the election of a group of individuals to replace a majority or more of the individuals presently on the Board of Directors of Parent; provided that if one or more individuals presently on the Board of Directors withdraws his or her nomination for reelection at any meeting of stockholders for the election of directors, Stockholder may vote for a replacement director nominated by Parent’s Board of Directors for such individual(s). The Stockholders may vote their shares of PeopleSoft Common Stock on all other matters submitted to the stockholders of PeopleSoft for their approval. The Voting Agreements terminate upon the earlier to occur of (a) such date and time as the Merger Agreement shall have been validly terminated pursuant to its terms, and (b) such date and time as the Merger shall become effective in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement.

 

The purpose of the Voting Agreements is to enable J.D. Edwards and PeopleSoft to consummate the transactions contemplated under the Merger Agreement.

 

  (c)   Not applicable.

 

  (d)   Upon the consummation of the Merger, the directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger will become the directors of the Surviving Corporation, until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified. Upon consummation of the Merger, officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger will become the initial officers of the Surviving Corporation, until their respective successors are duly appointed. PeopleSoft will appoint each of the directors and officers of Merger Sub.

Edwards will be amended and restated in its entirety to be identical to the Certificate of Incorporation of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (except that the name of the Surviving Corporation will be “J.D. Edwards & Company”), and such Certificate of Incorporation of J.D. Edwards, as so amended and restated, will be the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and such Certificate of Incorporation.

Edwards and such Bylaws.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

 

  (a)-(b)   As a result of the Voting Agreements, J.D. Edwards may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of at least 36,792,666 shares of PeopleSoft Common Stock as of June 1, 2003.

Newman, who as of the date hereof beneficially owns 200 shares of PeopleSoft Common Stock. Set forth on Schedule B hereto are the names of those stockholders of PeopleSoft that have entered into Voting Agreements with J.D. Edwards, and to the knowledge of J.D.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual premises, representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

1. Definitions. For the purposes of this Agreement, terms not defined herein but used herein and defined in the Merger Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in the Merger Agreement, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.


2. Voting Agreement. Stockholder hereby agrees with the Company that, at any meeting of Parent’s stockholders, however called, Stockholder shall appear at each such meeting, in person or by proxy, or otherwise cause all Stockholder Shares then outstanding to be counted as present thereat for purposes of establishing a quorum, and Stockholder shall vote, or cause to be voted (or in connection with any written consent of Parent’s stockholders, act, or cause to be acted, by written consent) with respect to all Stockholder Shares that Stockholder is entitled to vote or as to which Stockholder has the right to direct the voting, as of the relevant record date, (i) in favor of approval of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby; (ii) against any proposal that is intended, or is reasonably likely to result in the conditions of the Company’s obligations under the Merger Agreement not being fulfilled; and (iii) against the election of a group of individuals to replace a majority or more of the individuals presently on the Board of Directors of Parent; provided that if one or more individuals presently on the Board of Directors withdraws his or her nomination for reelection at any meeting of stockholders for the election of directors, Stockholder may vote for a replacement director nominated by Parent’s Board of Directors for such individual(s).

 

3. Irrevocable Proxy.

 

(a) Stockholder hereby constitutes and appoints the Company, which shall act by and through Robert Dutkowsky and Richard Allen (each, a “Proxy Holder”), or either of them, with full power of substitution, its true and lawful proxy and attorney-in-fact to vote at any meeting (and any adjournment or postponement thereof) of Parent’s stockholders called for purposes of considering whether to approve the Merger Agreement and transactions contemplated thereby or any other transaction described in Section 2 hereof, or to execute a written consent of stockholders in lieu of any such meeting (if so permitted), all Stockholder Shares held by Stockholder of record as of the relevant record date in favor of the approval of the Merger Agreement and transactions contemplated thereby and against any other action described in Section 2(iii) hereof.

 

(b) The proxy and power of attorney granted herein shall be irrevocable during the term of this Agreement, shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable proxy and shall revoke all prior proxies granted by Stockholder which conflicts with the proxy granted herein. Stockholder shall not grant any proxy to any person which conflicts with the proxy granted herein, and any attempt to do so shall be void. The power of attorney granted herein is a durable power of attorney and shall survive the death or incapacity of Stockholder.

 

(c) If Stockholder fails for any reason to vote his, her or its Stockholder Shares as required by Section 2 hereof, then the Proxy Holder shall have the right to vote the Stockholder Shares at any meeting of Parent’s stockholders and in any action by written consent of Parent’s stockholders in accordance with this Section 3. The vote of a Proxy Holder shall control in any conflict between a vote of such Stockholder Shares by a Proxy Holder and a vote of such Stockholder Shares by Stockholder with respect to the matters set forth in Section 3(a) hereof.

4. Director and Officer Matters Excluded. The Company acknowledges and agrees that no provision of this Agreement shall limit or otherwise restrict Stockholder with respect to any act or omission that Stockholder may undertake or authorize in Stockholder’s capacity as a director or officer of Parent, including, without limitation, any vote that Stockholder may make as a director or officer of Parent with respect to any matter presented to the Parent Board.

 

5. Other Covenants, Representations and Warranties. Stockholder hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Company as follows:

 

(a) Title to Stockholder Shares. Stockholder is the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13(d)(3) promulgated under the Exchange Act, “beneficial owner”) of all the Stockholder Shares. Except as set forth in Annex 1, attached hereto, Stockholder has sole voting power and the sole power of disposition with respect to all of the Stockholder Shares outstanding on the date hereof, and will have sole voting power and sole power of disposition with respect to all of the Stockholder Shares acquired by such Stockholder after the date hereof upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any option, warrant or convertible security owned or held by Stockholder as of the date hereof, with no limitations, qualifications or restrictions on such rights. Stockholder is the sole record holder (as reflected in the records maintained by Parent’s transfer agent) of the Stockholder Shares outstanding on the date hereof.

 

(b) Power; Binding Agreement. Stockholder has the legal capacity, power and authority to enter into and perform all of Stockholder’s obligations under this Agreement. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Stockholder will not violate any agreement or court order to which Stockholder is a party or is subject, including, without limitation, any voting agreement or voting trust. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by Stockholder and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of Stockholder, enforceable against Stockholder in accordance with its terms.

 

(c) Restriction on Transfer, Proxies and Non-Interference; Stop Transfer. Except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement, during the term of this Agreement, Stockholder shall not, directly or indirectly: (i) offer for sale, sell, transfer, tender, pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise dispose of, or enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or understanding with respect to, or consent to the offer for sale, sale, transfer, tender, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or other disposition of, any or all of the Stockholder Shares or any interest therein; (ii) grant any proxies or powers of attorney with respect to any Stockholder Shares which conflicts with Section 3(a) hereof and the proxy granted herein or deposit any Stockholder Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement with respect to any Stockholder Shares; or (iii) take any action that would make any representation or warranty of Stockholder contained herein untrue or incorrect or have the effect of preventing or disabling Stockholder from performing any of Stockholder’s obligations under this Agreement. Stockholder further agrees with and covenants to the Company that Stockholder shall not request that Parent register the transfer of any certificate or uncertificated interest representing any of the Stockholder Shares, unless such transfer is made in compliance with this Agreement. Stockholder agrees that, in order to ensure compliance with the restrictions referred to herein, Parent may issue appropriate “stop transfer” instructions to its transfer agent.

(d) No Consents. To his, her or its knowledge, the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Stockholder does not, and the performance by Stockholder of his, her or its obligations hereunder will not, require Stockholder to obtain any consent, approval, authorization or permit of, or to make any filing with or notification to, any Governmental Entity.

 

(e) Notification of the Company. Stockholder hereby agrees, while this Agreement is in effect, to notify the Company promptly of the number of any additional shares of capital stock and the number and type of any other voting securities of Parent acquired by such Stockholder, if any, after the date hereof.

 

(f) Reliance by the Company. Stockholder understands and acknowledges that the Company is entering into the Merger Agreement in reliance upon Stockholder’s execution and delivery of this Agreement.

 

(g) Sophistication.

(h) Permitted Transfers. Notwithstanding Section 5(c), Stockholder shall have the right to (A) transfer Stockholder Shares to (1) any Family Member; (2) the trustee or trustees of a trust for the benefit of Stockholder and/or one or more Family Members; (3) one or more charitable foundations or charitable organizations or any trustee or trustees of a trust for the benefit thereof; (4) a partnership of which Stockholder and/or Family Members owns a majority of the partnership interests; (5) a limited liability company of which Stockholder and/or any Family Members owns a majority of the membership interests; (6) the executor, administrator or personal representative of the estate of Stockholder; (7) any guardian, trustee or conservator appointed with respect to the assets of Stockholder; or (8) any third party who agrees to be bound by this Agreement; provided that in the case of any such transfer, the transferee shall, as a condition to such transfer, execute an agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement, except that a transferee who receives Stockholder Shares pursuant to subsection (h)(3) hereof may sell such shares through a broker or dealer on the Nasdaq Stock Market without regard to the foregoing proviso insofar as it would require such transferee to obtain an agreement from its transferee; and (B) sell up to 5% of the Stockholder Shares owned as of the date hereof on the Nasdaq Stock Market. “Family Member” means the Stockholder’s spouse, father, mother, issue (if living with Stockholder), brother or sister.

This Agreement shall be deemed to be made in and in all respects shall be interpreted, construed and governed by and in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to the conflict of law principles thereof.

Each party acknowledges and agrees that any controversy which may arise under this agreement is likely to involve complicated and difficult issues, and therefore each such party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right such party may have to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of or relating to this agreement or the transactions contemplated by this agreement.
