UNAUDITED NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 2009

(Tabular amounts in thousands, except per share data)

NOTE 1—BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (consolidated financial statements) include the accounts of Open Text Corporation and our wholly owned subsidiaries, collectively referred to as “Open Text” or the “Company”. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

These consolidated financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). These financial statements are based upon accounting policies and the methods of their application are consistent with those used and described in our annual consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009. The consolidated financial statements do not include certain financial statement disclosures included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and therefore should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009.

The information furnished reflects all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented and includes the financial results of Vignette Corporation (Vignette), with effect from July 22, 2009 (see Note 17). The operating results for the three and six months ended December 31, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for any succeeding quarter or the entire fiscal year ending June 30, 2010.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements. These estimates, judgments and assumptions are evaluated on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable at that time, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from those estimates. In particular, significant estimates, judgments and assumptions include those related to: (i) revenue recognition, (ii) allowance for doubtful accounts, (iii) testing goodwill for impairment, (iv) the valuation of acquired intangible assets, (v) the valuation of long-lived assets, (vi) the recognition of contingencies, (vii) restructuring accruals, (viii) acquisition accruals and pre-acquisition contingencies, (ix) asset retirement obligations, (x) realization of investment tax credits, (xi) the valuation of stock options granted and liabilities related to share-based payments, including the valuation of our long-term incentive plan, (xii) the valuation of financial instruments, (xiii) the valuation of pension assets and obligations, and (xiv) accounting for income taxes.

NOTE 2—NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS AND ACCOUNTING POLICY UPDATES

Business Combinations

On July 1, 2009, we adopted the requirements of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 805 “Business Combinations” (ASC Topic 805). Our acquisition of Vignette was accounted for in accordance with this new business combination standard (see Notes 6 and 17).

Accounting Standards Codification

In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement No. 168 “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162” (the Codification). The Codification has become the single source of authoritative non-government U.S generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), superseding various existing authoritative accounting pronouncements. The Codification eliminates the GAAP hierarchy contained in Statement No. 162 and establishes one level of authoritative GAAP. All other U.S. GAAP literature is considered non-authoritative. This Codification is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. We adopted the Codification in our first quarter of Fiscal 2010. There was no change to our consolidated financial statements due to the implementation of the Codification other than changes in reference to various authoritative accounting pronouncements in our Notes to consolidated financial statements.

Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value

In August 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-05, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820)—Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value” (ASU 2009-05). ASU 2009-05 provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not

OPEN TEXT CORPORATION

UNAUDITED NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

For the Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 2009

(Tabular amounts in thousands, except per share data)

available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value of such liability using one or more of the techniques prescribed by the update. We adopted ASU 2009-05 in our first quarter of Fiscal 2010 and its adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition Updates

In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-13, “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605): Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements” (ASU 2009-13). ASU 2009-13 applies to multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements that are currently within the scope of FASB ASC Subtopic 605-25 (previously included in Emerging Issues Task Force Issue no. 00-21, “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables”). ASU 2009-13 provides principles and application guidance on whether multiple deliverables exist, how the arrangement should be separated, and the consideration allocated. It also requires an entity to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of deliverables if a vendor does not have vendor-specific objective evidence or third-party evidence of selling price. The guidance eliminates the use of the residual method, requires entities to allocate revenue using the relative-selling-price method, and significantly expands the disclosure requirements for multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. Additionally, in October 2009 the FASB also issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-14 (Topic 985): “Certain Revenue Arrangements that Include Software Arrangements” (ASU 2009-14). ASU 2009-14 focuses on determining which arrangements are within the scope of the software revenue guidance in ASC Topic 985 (previously included in AICPA Statement of Position no. 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition) and those that are not. ASU 2009-14 removes tangible products from the scope of the software revenue guidance if the products contain both software and non-software components that function together to deliver a product’s essential functionality and provides guidance on determining whether software deliverables in an arrangement that includes a tangible product are within the scope of the software revenue guidance. Both of these updates are effective on a prospective basis for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. We are currently assessing the impact of these updates on our future consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3—SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS

Short-term investments consist of certain marketable investments in U.S government agencies. These investments were acquired by us as part of our acquisition of Vignette (see Note 17), and are accounted for as “Available-for-sale” investments. Unrealized gains or losses on these investments are included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (AOCI). An unrealized gain of $3,000 and an unrealized loss of $34,000 was recorded within AOCI during the three and six months ended December 31, 2009, respectively, relating to the change in fair value of these investments from the date of acquisition of Vignette (July 21, 2009) to December 31, 2009. As of December 31, 2009, the fair value of these investments was $8.4 million based upon quoted market prices.

Asset retirement obligations

We are required to return certain of our leased facilities to their original state at the conclusion of our lease. We have accounted for such obligations in accordance with ASC Topic 410 “Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations”. As of December 31, 2009 the present value of this obligation was $8.4 million (June 30, 2009 – $7.2 million), with an undiscounted value of $10.0 million (June 30, 2009 – $8.7 million).

Accruals relating to acquisitions

In relation to our acquisitions made before July 1, 2009, the date on which we adopted ASC Topic 805, we have accrued for costs relating to legacy workforce reductions and abandonment of excess legacy facilities. Such accruals were capitalized as part of the cost of the subject acquisition and in the case of abandoned facilities, have been recorded at present value less our best estimate for future sub-lease income and costs incurred to achieve sub-tenancy. The accrual for workforce reductions is extinguished against the payments made to the employees and in the case of excess facilities, will be discharged over the term of the respective leases. Any excess of the difference between the present value and actual cash paid for the abandoned facility will be charged to income and any deficits will be reversed to goodwill. The provisions for abandoned facilities are expected to be paid by February 2015.

NOTE 10—PENSION PLANS AND OTHER POST RETIREMENT BENEFITS

CDT Defined Benefit Plan and CDT Long-term Employee Benefit Obligations:

On November 1, 2008, the following unfunded defined benefit pension plan and long-term employee benefit obligations were acquired, relating to legacy Captaris employees of a wholly owned subsidiary of Captaris called Captaris Document Technologies GmbH (CDT). As of December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009, the balances relating to these obligations were as follows:

	Total benefit obligation		Current portion of benefit obligation*		Noncurrent portion of benefit obligation

* The current portion of the benefit obligation has been included within Accounts payable and accrued liabilities within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

CDT Defined Benefit Plan

CDT sponsors an unfunded defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all CDT employees (CDT pension plan) which provides for old age, disability and survivors´ benefits. Benefits under the CDT pension plan are generally based on age at retirement, years of service and the employee’s annual earnings. The net periodic cost of this pension plan is determined using the projected unit credit method and several actuarial assumptions, the most significant of which are the discount rate and estimated service costs.

The following are the components of net periodic benefit costs for the CDT pension plan and the details of the change in the benefit obligation for the periods indicated:

	As of December 31, 2009			As of June 30, 2009

CDT Long-term Employee Benefit Obligations.

CDT’s long-term employee benefit obligations arise under CDT’s “Anniversary plan” and an early retirement plan. The obligation is unfunded and carried at a fair value of $0.8 million for the Anniversary plan and $0.5 million for the early retirement plan, as of December 31, 2009 ($1.0 million and $0.6 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2009).

The Anniversary plan is a defined benefit plan for long-tenured CDT employees. The plan provides for a lump-sum payment to employees of two months of salary upon reaching the anniversary of twenty-five years of service and three months of salary upon reaching the anniversary of forty years of service. The early retirement plan is designed to create an incentive for employees, within a certain age group, to transition from (full or part-time) employment into retirement before their legal retirement age. This plan allows employees, upon reaching a certain age, to elect to work full-time for a period of time and be paid 50% of their full-time salary. After working within this arrangement for a designated period of time, the employee is eligible to take early retirement and receive payments from the earned but unpaid salaries until they are eligible to receive payments under the postretirement benefit plan discussed above. Benefits under the early retirement plan are generally based on the employee’s compensation and the number of years of service.

IXOS AG Defined Benefit Plans

Included within “Other Assets” are net pension assets of $0.3 million (June 30, 2009 – $0.6 million) relating to two IXOS defined benefit pensions plans (IXOS pension plans) in connection with certain former members of the IXOS Board of Directors and certain IXOS employees, respectively (See Note 8). The net periodic pension cost with respect to the IXOS pension plans is determined using the projected unit credit method and several actuarial assumptions, the most significant of which are the discount rate and the expected return on plan assets. The fair value of our total plan assets under the IXOS pension plans, as of December 31, 2009, is $3.8 million (June 30, 2009 – $3.5 million). The fair value of our total pension obligation under the IXOS pension plans as of December 31, 2009 is $3.5 million (June 30, 2009 – $2.9 million).

(Tabular amounts in thousands, except per share data)

Term loan and Revolver

On October 2, 2006, we entered into a $465.0 million credit agreement (the credit agreement) with a Canadian chartered bank (the bank) consisting of a $390.0 million term loan facility (the term loan) and a $75.0 million committed revolving long-term credit facility (the revolver). The term loan was used to finance a portion of our Hummingbird acquisition. We have not made any withdrawals under the revolver from the inception date to current date.

Term loan

The term loan has a seven year term, expires on October 2, 2013 and bears interest at a floating rate of LIBOR plus 2.25%. The quarterly scheduled term loan principal repayments are equal to 0.25% of the original principal amount, due each quarter with the remainder due at the end of the term, less ratable reductions for any non-scheduled prepayments made. From October 2, 2006 (the inception of the loan) to December 31, 2009, we have made total non-scheduled prepayments of $90.0 million towards the principal on the term loan. Our current quarterly scheduled principal payment is approximately $0.7 million.

For the three and six months ended December 31, 2009, we recorded interest expense of $1.9 million and $3.7 million, respectively, (three and six months ended December 31, 2008-$3.7 million and $7.2 million, respectively), relating to the term loan.

Revolver

The revolver has a five year term and expires on October 2, 2011. Borrowings under this facility bear interest at rates specified in the credit agreement. The revolver is subject to a “stand-by” fee ranging between 0.30% and 0.50% per annum depending on our consolidated leverage ratio. There were no borrowings outstanding under the revolver as of December 31, 2009.

For the three and six months ended December 31, 2009, we recorded interest expense of $57,000 and $0.1 million respectively, (three and six months ended December 31, 2008 – $55,000 and $0.1 million, respectively), on account of stand-by fees relating to the revolver.

Mortgage

The mortgage consists of a five year mortgage agreement entered into during December 2005 with the bank. The original principal amount of the mortgage was Canadian $15.0 million. The mortgage: (i) has a fixed term of five years, (ii) matures on January 1, 2011, and (iii) is secured by a lien on our headquarters in Waterloo, Ontario. Interest accrues monthly at a fixed rate of 5.25% per annum. Principal and interest are payable in monthly installments of Canadian $0.1 million with a final lump sum principal payment of Canadian $12.6 million due on maturity.

As of December 31, 2009, the carrying value of the building was $15.9 million (June 30, 2009 – $14.7 million).

For the three and six months ended December 31, 2009, we recorded interest expense of $0.2 million and $0.3 million (three and six months ended December 31, 2008 – $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively), relating to the mortgage.

NOTE 12—SHARE CAPITAL, OPTION PLANS AND SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS

Share Capital

Our authorized share capital includes an unlimited number of Common Shares and an unlimited number of first preference shares. No preference shares have been issued.

We did not repurchase any Common Shares during the three and six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.

Share-Based Payments

Summary of Outstanding Stock Options

As of December 31, 2009, options to purchase an aggregate of 2,660,879 Common Shares were outstanding and 1,566,595 Common Shares were available for issuance under our stock option plans. Our stock options generally vest over four years and expire between seven and ten years from the date of the grant. The exercise price of the options we grant is set at an amount that is not less than the closing price of our Common Shares on the trading day for the NASDAQ immediately preceding the applicable grant date.

A summary of option activity under our stock option plans for the six months ended December 31, 2009 is as follows:

	Options		Weighted- Average Exercise Price		Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Term (years)	Aggregate Intrinsic Value ($’000s)
Outstanding at June 30, 2009	2,828,989		$	20.71

Exercisable at December 31, 2009	1,727,527		$	18.12	3.20	$	38,916

Share-based compensation cost included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended December 31, 2009 was approximately $1.9 million and $5.4 million respectively, inclusive of charges of $1.0 million and $3.2 million respectively, booked to Special charges (see Note 16).

Share-based compensation cost included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended December 31, 2008 was approximately $1.1 million and $2.5 million, respectively.

We estimate the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, consistent with the provisions of ASC Topic 718 “Compensation—Stock Compensation” (ASC Topic 718) and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107. The option-pricing models require input of subjective assumptions including the estimated life of the option and the expected volatility of the underlying stock over the estimated life of the option. We use historical volatility as a basis for projecting the expected volatility of the underlying stock and estimate the expected life of our stock options based upon historical data.

We believe that the valuation technique and the approach utilized to develop the underlying assumptions are appropriate in calculating the fair value of our stock option grants. Estimates of fair value are not intended, however, to predict actual future events or the value ultimately realized by employees who receive equity awards.

For the periods indicated, the following weighted-average fair value of options and weighted-average assumptions used were as follows:

	Three months ended December 31,						Six months ended December 31,
	2009			2008			2009			2008
Weighted–average fair value of options granted	$	13.05		$	10.13		$	13.14		$	12.47
Weighted-average assumptions used:
Expected volatility		39	%		41	%		39	%		42	%
Risk–free interest rate		2.4	%		1.28	%		2.4	%		2.9	%
Expected dividend yield		0	%		0	%		0	%		0	%
Expected life (in years)		4.3			4.4			4.3			4.4
Forfeiture rate (based on historical rates)		5	%		5	%		5	%		5	%

As of December 31, 2009, the total compensation cost related to the unvested stock awards not yet recognized was $8.2 million, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 2 years.

As of December 31, 2008, the total compensation cost related to the unvested stock awards not yet recognized was $12.5 million, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 3 years.

In each of the above periods, no cash was used by us to settle equity instruments granted under share-based compensation arrangements.

We have not capitalized any share-based compensation costs as part of the cost of an asset in any of the periods presented.

For the three and six months ended December 31, 2009, cash in the amount of $1.4 million and $5.7 million, respectively, was received as the result of the exercise of options granted under share-based payment arrangements. The tax benefit realized by us during the three and six months ended December 31, 2009 from the exercise of options eligible for a tax deduction was $6,000 and $0.7 million, respectively, which was recorded as additional paid-in capital.

For the three and six months ended December 31, 2008, cash in the amount of $0.4 million and $5.6 million, respectively, was received as the result of the exercise of options granted under share-based payment arrangements. The tax benefit realized by us during the three and six months ended December 31, 2008 from the exercise of options eligible for a tax deduction was $24,000 and $6.6 million, respectively, which was recorded as additional paid-in capital.

Long Term Incentive Plans

On September 10, 2007, our Board of Directors approved the implementation of a Long-Term Incentive Plan called the “Open Text Corporation Long-Term Incentive Plan” (LTIP). Grants made in Fiscal 2008 under the LTIP (LTIP 1) took effect in Fiscal 2008, starting on July 1, 2007. The LTIP is a rolling three year program whereby we make a series of annual grants, each of which covers a three year performance period, to certain of our employees, and which vests upon the employee and/or the Company meeting pre-determined performance and market-based criteria. Awards under LTIP 1 may be equal to either 100% or 150% of target. The maximum amount that an employee may receive with regard to any single performance criterion is 1.5 times the target award for that criterion. Grants made in Fiscal 2009 under the LTIP (LTIP 2) took effect in Fiscal 2009 starting on July 1, 2008. Awards under LTIP 2 may be equal to 100% of the target. We expect to settle the LTIP 1 and LTIP 2 awards in cash.

Consistent with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 718, we have measured the fair value of the liability under the LTIP as of December 31, 2009 and recorded an expense relating to such liability to compensation cost in the amount of $3.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2009 and $5.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2009 (three and six months ended December 31, 2008 – $1.7 million and $2.8 million, respectively). The outstanding liability under the LTIP as of December 31, 2009 was $12.1 million (June 30, 2009 – $6.2 million ) and is re-measured based upon the change in the fair value of the liability, as of the end of every reporting period, and a cumulative adjustment to compensation cost for the change in fair value is recognized. The cumulative compensation expense recognized upon completion of the LTIP will be equal to the payouts made.

NOTE 13—INCOME TAXES

Our effective tax rate represents the net effect of the mix of income earned in various tax jurisdictions that are subject to a wide range of income tax rates.

Upon adoption of FIN 48 we elected to follow an accounting policy to classify interest related to liabilities for income tax expense under the “Interest income (expense), net” line and penalties related to liabilities for income tax expense under the “Other income (expense)” line of our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2009, we recognized interest in the amount of $0.3 million and $1.2 million, respectively (three and six months ended December 31, 2008, $0.6 million and $1.1 million, respectively) and penalties in the amount of nil and a recovery of $0.2 million, respectively (three and six months ended December 31, 2008, nil). The amount of interest and penalties accrued as of December 31, 2009 was $5.8 million ($4.1 million as of June 30, 2009) and $9.8 million ($9.4 million as of June 30, 2009), respectively. Included in these balances as of December 31, 2009, are accrued interest and penalties of $0.5 million and $0.6 million, respectively, relating to the acquisition of Vignette (see Note 17).

We believe that it is reasonably possible that the gross unrecognized tax benefits, as of December 31, 2009 could increase in the next 12 months by $1.1 million (June 30, 2009, decrease by $0.2 million), relating primarily to the expiration of competent authority relief and tax years becoming statute barred for purposes of future tax examinations by local taxing jurisdictions.

(Tabular amounts in thousands, except per share data)

Our three most significant tax jurisdictions are Canada, the United States and Germany. Our tax filings remain subject to examination by applicable tax authorities for a certain length of time following the tax year to which those filings relate. Tax years that remain open to examinations by local taxing authorities vary by jurisdiction up to ten years.

We are subject to tax examinations in all major taxing jurisdictions in which we operate and currently have examinations open in Canada, Germany, the United States, France and Spain. On a quarterly basis we assess the status of these examinations and the potential for adverse outcomes to determine the adequacy of the provision for income and other taxes.

We believe that we have adequately provided for any reasonably foreseeable outcomes related to our tax examinations and that any settlement will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations. However, we cannot predict with any level of certainty the exact nature of any future possible settlements.

NOTE 14—FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (ASC Topic 820) defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and addresses disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. Fair value is the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. The fair value, in this context, should be calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not on assumptions specific to the entity. In addition, the fair value of liabilities should include consideration of non-performance risk including our own credit risk.

In addition to defining fair value and addressing disclosure requirements, ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. Each fair value measurement is reported in one of the three levels which are determined by the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are:

• Level 1—inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.

• Level 2—inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

• Level 3—inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques that include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques.

For the Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 2009

(Tabular amounts in thousands, except per share data)

Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis:

Our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis consisted of the following types of instruments as of December 31, 2009:

	December 31, 2009		Fair Market Measurements using:
			Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets		Significant other observable inputs		Significant unobservable inputs
			(Level 1)		(Level 2)		(Level 3)
Financial Assets:
Short-term investments	$	8,414	$	8,414	$	n/a	$	n/a
Derivative financial instrument assets (note 15)		2,919		n/a		2,919		n/a
	$	11,333	$	8,414	$	2,919	$	n/a
Financial Liabilities:
Derivative financial instrument liabilities (note 15)	$	226	$	n/a	$	226	$	n/a

Our valuation techniques used to measure the fair values of our marketable securities were derived from quoted market prices as an active market for these securities exists. Our valuation techniques used to measure the fair values of the derivative instruments, the counterparty to which has high credit ratings, were derived from the pricing models including discounted cash flow techniques, with all significant inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data, as no quoted market prices exist for the derivative instruments. Our discounted cash flow techniques use observable market inputs, such as foreign currency spot and forward rates.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

We measure certain assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets are recognized at fair value when they are deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2009, no indications of impairment were identified and therefore no fair value measurements were required.

NOTE 15—DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

On December 30, 2008, we entered into a hedging program with a Canadian chartered bank, to limit the potential foreign exchange fluctuations on future intercompany royalties and management fees that are expected to be earned by our Canadian subsidiary from one of our U.S. subsidiaries. The program seeks to hedge intercompany royalties and management fees. The contracts settle within eight to twelve months from inception date and we do not use these forward contracts for trading or speculative purposes.

Our hedging strategy, under this program, is to limit the potential volatility associated with the foreign currency gains and losses that may be experienced upon the eventual settlement of these transactions.

We have designated these transactions as cash flow hedges of forecasted transactions under ASC Topic 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” (ASC Topic 815). Accordingly, quarterly unrealized gains or losses on the effective portion of these forward contracts have been included within other comprehensive income. Unrealized gains or losses on the ineffective portion of these forward contracts, and the gain or loss on ineffective hedges that have

(Tabular amounts in thousands, except per share data)

been excluded from effectiveness testing have been classified within “Other income (expense)”. The fair value of the contracts, as of December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009, is recorded within “Prepaid expenses and other current assets”.

As of December 31, 2009, the notional amount of forward contracts we held, to sell U.S. dollars in exchange for Canadian dollars was $16.5 million (June 30, 2009 – $44.0 million).

In addition to the above, we acquired a non-material foreign currency forward contract as a part of our acquisition of Vignette (See Note 17). This contract is used to manage balance sheet exposures in a non-functional currency and has not been designated as a hedging instrument pursuant to ASC Topic 815. Accordingly, the change in the fair value of this contract has been recorded within “Other income (expenses)” and the fair value thereof has been recorded within “Accounts payable and accrued liabilities”, as noted below. As of December 31, 2009 the notional amount underlying this contract is $1.2 million.

Interest Rate Collar

As part of the requirements of the term loan credit agreement (see Note 11) we were required to maintain, from thirty days following the date on which the term loan was entered into through to the third anniversary or such earlier date on which the term loan is paid, an interest rate hedging arrangement with counter parties in respect of the term loan. Accordingly, in October 2006, we entered into a three year interest rate collar that had the economic effect of circumscribing the floating portion of the interest rate obligations associated with the term loan within an upper limit of 5.34% and a lower limit of 4.79%. As of December 31, 2009, the interest rate collar expired, as per its contractual term (notional amount as of June 30, 2009 – $100.0 million).

ASC Topic 815 requires that written options meet certain criteria in order for hedge accounting to apply. We determined that these criteria were not met and hence hedge accounting was not applied to the interest rate collar.

The quarterly unrealized gains or losses on the interest rate collar and quarterly amounts payable by us to the counter party were included within interest expense and, prior to its expiry, the fair value of the interest rate collar was recorded with “Accounts payable and accrued liabilities.”

Fair value of Derivative Instruments and Effect of Derivative Instruments on Financial Performance

The effect of these derivative instruments on our consolidated financial statements as of, and for the three and six months ended December 31, 2009, were as follows (amounts presented do not include any income tax effects).

The total costs to be incurred in conjunction with the Fiscal 2010 restructuring plan are expected to be approximately $32 million to $40 million, of which $23.8 million has been recorded within Special charges to date. Reconciliations of the liability relating to each of our outstanding restructuring plans are provided hereunder:

Fiscal 2010 Restructuring Plan (cash payable portion)

In the first quarter of Fiscal 2010, our Board approved, and we began to implement, restructuring activities to streamline our operations and consolidate certain excess facilities (Fiscal 2010 restructuring plan). These charges relate to workforce reductions and other miscellaneous direct costs. The provision related to workforce reduction is expected to be paid by December 2010. On a quarterly basis, we will conduct an evaluation of the remaining balances relating to workforce reduction and revise our assumptions and estimates as appropriate.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending liability for the six months ended December 31, 2009, is shown below.

NOTE 17—ACQUISITIONS

Fiscal 2010

Vignette Corporation.

On July 21, 2009, we acquired, by way of a merger agreement, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Vignette, an Austin, Texas based company that provides and develops software used for managing and delivering business content. Per the terms of the merger agreement, each share of common stock of Vignette (not already owned by Open Text) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of the merger (July 21, 2009) was converted into the right to receive $8.00 in cash and 0.1447 of one Open Text common share (equivalent to a value of $5.33 as of July 21, 2009). The acquisition of Vignette is expected to strengthen our ability to offer an expanded portfolio of Enterprise Content Management (ECM) solutions to further consolidate our position as an independent leader in the ECM marketplace. In accordance with ASC Topic 805, this acquisition was accounted for as a business combination.

The results of operations of Vignette have been consolidated with those of Open Text beginning July 22, 2009.

Total consideration for this acquisition was comprised of:

Equity consideration paid	$	125,223
Cash consideration paid		182,909
Fair value of total consideration transferred		308,132
Vignette shares already owned by Open Text through open market purchases (at fair value)		13,283
	$	321,415
Acquisition related costs (included in Special charges in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income) for the six months ended December 31, 2009	$	1,896

Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed

The recognized amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based upon their fair values as of July 21, 2009 are set forth below:

Current assets (inclusive of cash acquired of $92,309)	$	171,959
Long-term assets		22,323
Intangible customer assets		22,700
Intangible technology assets		68,200
Total liabilities assumed		(96,291	)
Total identifiable net assets		188,891
Goodwill		132,524
Net assets acquired	$	321,415

The fair value of Common shares issued as part of the consideration was determined based upon the closing price of Open Text’s common shares on acquisition date.

The factors that impact the qualitative composition of goodwill, the allocation of goodwill to our reporting units and the deductibility thereof for income tax purposes are currently being assessed.

The fair value of current assets acquired includes accounts receivable with a fair value of $27.1 million. The gross amount receivable was $28.3 million, of which $1.2 million was expected to be uncollectible.

As of acquisition date, Vignette had significant deferred tax assets that were subject to valuation allowances including deferred tax assets relating to the domestic federal net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards. Internal Revenue Code Section 382 imposes substantial restrictions on the utilization of these NOLs in the event of an “ownership change” of the corporation. We are currently assessing our ability to utilize these tax attributes prior to their expiration. The final valuation of the deferred tax assets could result in a material change in the above indicated amount of goodwill and intangible assets.

The fair value of the acquired intangible customer assets of $22.7 million, and intangible technology assets of $68.2 million, is provisional pending any tax related impacts on the valuations of these items.

Included within net income (loss) for the periods reported above are the estimated amortization charges relating to the allocated values of intangible assets.

NOTE 18—GUARANTEES AND CONTINGENCIES

Guarantees and indemnifications

We have entered into license agreements with customers that include limited intellectual property indemnification clauses. Generally, we agree to indemnify our customers against legal claims that our software products infringe certain third party intellectual property rights. In the event of such a claim, we are generally obligated to defend our customers against the claim and either settle the claim at our expense or pay damages that our customers are legally required to pay to the third-party claimant. These intellectual property infringement indemnification clauses generally are subject to limits based upon the amount of the license sale. We have not made any indemnification payments in relation to these indemnification clauses.

In connection with certain facility leases, we have guaranteed payments on behalf of our subsidiaries either by providing a security deposit with the landlord or through unsecured bank guarantees obtained from local banks.

We have not disclosed a liability for guarantees, indemnities or warranties described above in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets since the maximum amount of potential future payments under such guarantees, indemnities and warranties is not determinable.

Litigation

We are subject from time to time to legal proceedings and claims, either asserted or unasserted, that arise in the ordinary course of business, and accrue for these items where appropriate. While the outcome of these proceedings and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not believe that the outcome of any of these legal matters will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Currently, we are not involved in any litigation that we reasonably believe could materially impact our financial position or results of operations and cash flows.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contains forward-looking statements regarding future events and our future results that are subject to the safe harbors within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and created under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements other than statements of historical facts are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements.

Certain statements in this report may contain words such as such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “may,” “could,” “would” and other similar language and are considered forward looking statements or information under applicable securities laws. In addition, any information or statements that refer to expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, performance or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking, and based on our current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about the operating environment, economies and markets in which we operate. Such forward-looking information or statements are subject to important assumptions, risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict, and the actual outcome may be materially different. Our assumptions, although considered reasonable by us at the date of this report, may prove to be inaccurate and consequently our actual results could differ materially from the expectations set out herein.

We undertake no obligation to revise or publicly release the results of any revisions to these forward-looking information or statements. You should carefully review Part II Item 1A “Risk Factors” and other documents we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission and other applicable securities regulators. A number of factors may materially affect our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects. These factors include but are not limited to those set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and Part II Item 1A “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this report. Any one of these factors may cause our actual results to differ materially from recent results or from our anticipated future results. You should not rely too heavily on the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, because these forward-looking statements are relevant only as of the date they were made.

The following MD&A is intended to help readers understand the results of our operation and financial condition, and is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (the Notes) under Part I, Item1 of this Form 10-Q.

Growth and percentage comparisons made herein generally refer to the three and six months ended December 31, 2009 compared with the three and six months ended December 31, 2008, unless otherwise noted. All references to “Notes” made herein are references to the Notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Where we say “we”, “us”, “our”, “Open Text” or “the Company”, we mean Open Text Corporation or Open Text Corporation and its subsidiaries, as applicable.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Open Text

We are an independent company providing Enterprise Content management (ECM) software solutions. ECM is the set of technologies used to capture, manage, store, preserve, find and retrieve “word” based content. We focus solely on ECM software solutions with a view to being recognized as “The Content Experts” in the software industry. We endeavor to be at the leading edge of content management technology, by continually upgrading and improving on our product offering. This is done internally and through acquisitions of companies that own technologies we feel will benefit our clients.

30

Our initial public offering was on the NASDAQ in 1996 and subsequently on the Toronto Stock Exchange in 1998. We are a multinational company and currently employ approximately 3,700 people worldwide.

Quarterly Highlights:

Some highlights of our operating results for the three months ended December 31, 2009 include:

• Total revenue increased by 19.3% from the same period in the prior fiscal year to $247.8 million.

• License revenue increased by 12.1% from the same period in the prior fiscal year to $72.7 million.

• Customer support revenue increased to $130.3 million, equivalent to a 29.7% increase over the same period in the prior fiscal year.

Other highlights were as follows:

• In early December 2009, we released version 14 of “Connectivity Solutions”, which leverages the new productivity and security features of Microsoft Windows 7 and offers organizations the ability to smoothly transition to the latest Microsoft platform.

• In October 2009, we announced the expansion of our SAP reseller agreement to include “SAP Extended ECM by Open Text.” This marks a further expansion of our relationship with SAP.

• In October 2009, we announced the latest release of “Open Text Enterprise Connect”. The new version enhances “Enterprise Connect” as a content service that makes it easy to blend content and processes within users’ preferred working environments.

Acquisitions

Our competitive position in the marketplace requires us to maintain a complex and evolving array of technologies, products, services and capabilities. In light of the continually evolving marketplace in which we operate, we regularly evaluate various acquisition opportunities within the ECM marketplace and elsewhere in the high technology industry. We believe our acquisitions support our long-term strategic direction, strengthen our competitive position, expand our customer base and provide greater scale to accelerate innovation, grow our earnings and increase shareholder value. We expect to continue to strategically acquire companies, products, services and technologies to augment our existing business.

During Fiscal 2010 we have continued our acquisition activity. On July 21, 2009, we acquired Vignette, a provider of ECM software products. Vignette is based in Austin, Texas with worldwide operations. We believe that this acquisition will further consolidate our position as an independent leader in the ECM marketplace and help strengthen our Web Content Management (WCM) product offering in conjunction with our existing RedDot products (see Note 17).

Partners

Partnerships are fundamental to the Open Text business. We have developed strong and mutually beneficial relationships with key technology partners, including major software vendors, systems integrators, and storage vendors, which give us leverage to deliver customer-focused solutions. Key partnership alliances of Open Text include, but are not limited to, Oracle^©, Microsoft^©, SAP^©, Deloitte, and Accenture^©. We rely on close cooperation with partners for sales and product development, as well as for the optimization of opportunities which arise in our competitive environment. We continually aim to strengthen our global partner program, with emphasis on developing strategic relations and achieving close integration with partners. Our partners continue to generate business in key areas such as archiving, records management and compliance.

Our revenue from partners contributed approximately 43% of our license revenues in the three and six months ended December 31, 2009 compared to approximately 30% and 33% during the three and six months ended December 31, 2008, respectively.

31

Outlook for Fiscal 2010

We believe that we have a strong position in the ECM market and that the market for content solutions remains stable. We think that our diversified geographic profile helps strengthen our position, in that approximately 50% of our revenues are from outside of North America and thus, helps cushions us from a “downturn” in any one specific region. Additionally, our focus on compliance based products also helps insulate us from “downturns” in the current macroeconomic environment. Also, we believe we have a strong position in the ECM market because over 50% of our revenues are from customer support revenues, which are generally a recurring source of income, and we expect this trend to continue.

License Revenue consists of fees earned from the licensing of software products to customers. Our license revenues are affected by the strength of general economic and industry conditions, the competitive strength of our software products, and our acquisitions. Our new license business is also characterized by long sales cycles whereby the timing of a few large software license transactions can substantially affect our quarterly new software license revenues.

License revenue increased by approximately $7.8 million in the three months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2008. The increase in license revenue is geographically attributable to an increase in North America license sales of $4.6 million, an increase in license sales in Europe of $0.9 million and the remainder of the difference is due to license sales generated in other geographies.

Also, we had an increase in the number of “large deals” (for license sales in excess of $1.0 million) from five in the three months ended December 31, 2008 to six in the three months ended December 31, 2009.

License revenue increased by approximately $5.1 million in the six months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the six months ended December 31, 2008. The increase in license revenue is geographically attributable to an increase in North America license sales of $3.5 million, offset by a decrease in license sales in Europe of $0.6 million. The remainder of the difference is due to license sales generated in other geographies.

Customer Support Revenue consists of revenue from our customer support and maintenance agreements. These agreements allow our customers to receive technical support, enhancements and upgrades to new versions of our software products when and if available. Customer support revenue is generated from support and maintenance relating to current year sales of software products and from the renewal of existing maintenance agreements for software licenses sold in prior periods. Because of our large installed base, the renewal rate has more influence on total customer support revenue in comparison to the impact that the current software revenue has. Therefore changes in customer support revenue do not necessarily correlate directly to the changes in license revenue from period to period. The terms of support and maintenance agreements are typically twelve months, with customer renewal options. New license sales create additional customer support agreements which contributes to the increase in our customer support revenue.

Customer support revenues increased by approximately $29.9 million in the three months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2008. The increase in customer support revenue is attributable to an increase in North America customer support sales of $14.2 million, an increase in Europe customer support sales of $11.4 million and the remainder of the difference is due to sales generated in other geographies.

Customer support revenues increased by approximately $55.1 million in the six months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the six months ended December 31, 2008. The increase in customer support revenue is attributable to an increase in North America customer support sales of $31.5 million, an increase in Europe customer support sales of $16.9 million and the remainder of the difference is due to sales generated in other geographies.

Service and Other Revenue. Service revenue consists of revenues from consulting contracts, contracts to provide training and integration services (Professional Services). “Other” revenue consists of hardware revenue. These revenues are grouped within the “Service and Other” category because they are relatively immaterial. For the three months ended December 31, 2009, hardware revenues were $3.7 million, which is consistent with the same period in the prior fiscal year. For the six months ended December 31, 2009, hardware revenues were $7.5 million, compared to $3.7 million for the same period in the prior fiscal year, which is less due to the fact that we had no hardware sales in the first quarter of Fiscal 2009. Professional Services, if purchased, are typically performed after the purchase of new software licenses.

Service and other revenues increased by approximately $2.5 million in the three months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2008. The increase in services and

33

other revenue is due to an increase in North America service and other revenues of $1.2 million, and an increase in Europe service and other revenues by $1.0 million. The remainder of the difference in service and other revenues is from revenue generated in other geographies.

Service and other revenues increased by approximately $8.8 million in the six months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the six months ended December 31, 2008. The increase in services and other revenue is due to an increase in North America service and other revenues of $7.9 million, offset by a decrease in Europe service and other revenues by $1.0 million. The remainder of the difference in service and other revenues is from revenue generated in other geographies.

Cost of Revenue and Gross Margin by Product Type

The following tables set forth the changes in cost of revenues and gross margin by product type for the periods indicated:

	Three months ended December 31,				Change/ increase (decrease)			Six months ended December 31,				Change/ increase (decrease)

Cost of license revenue consists primarily of royalties payable to third parties and product media duplication, instruction manuals and packaging expenses.

Cost of license revenue decreased by $0.6 million in the three months ending December 31, 2009 as compared to the three months ending December 31, 2008.

Cost of license revenue decreased by $0.4 million in the six months ending December 31, 2009 as compared to the six months ending December 31, 2008.

The overall increase in gross margin on cost of license revenue for the three and six months ended December 31, 2009, as compared to the same periods in the prior fiscal year, is primarily due to a decrease in media kits, and subcontracting costs, relative to the increase in license revenue.

Cost of customer support revenues is comprised primarily of technical support personnel and related costs, as well as third party royalty type costs.

Cost of customer support revenues increased by $4.1 million in the three months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, which is primarily due to an increase in direct costs, associated with the relative increase in customer support revenues. Overall gross margin on cost of customer support revenue has increased slightly, to approximately 83.5% primarily due to lower third party costs.

34

Cost of customer support revenues increased by $9.5 million in the six months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, which is primarily due to an increase in direct costs, associated with the relative increase in customer support revenues. Overall gross margin on cost of customer support revenue has revenue remained relatively stable at approximately 83%.

Cost of service and other revenues consists primarily of the costs of providing integration, customization and training with respect to our various software products. The most significant components of these costs are personnel related expenses, travel costs and third party subcontracting.

Cost of service and other revenues have increased by $4.5 million in the three months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the three months ending December 31, 2008. The gross margin on cost of service and other revenues has decreased to approximately 18.7% primarily due to delayed implementations and lower margins on Vignette service contracts.

Cost of service and other revenues have increased by $10.1 million in the six months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the six months ending December 31, 2008. The gross margin on cost of service and other revenues has decreased to approximately 18.2% primarily due to delayed implementations and lower margins on Vignette service contracts.

Headcount relating to our professional services business has increased by 71 employees from December 31, 2008 to December 31, 2009.

Amortization of acquired technology-based intangible assets increased by $3.4 million in the three months ended December 31, 2009 and $6.7 million in the six months ended December 31, 2009, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior fiscal year, due to the increase in intangible assets as of December 31, 2009 on account of the acquisitions made by us after December 31, 2008.

Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel expenses, contracted research and development expenses, and facility costs. Research and development enables organic growth and as such we dedicate extensive efforts every quarter to update and upgrade our product offering. The primary driver is typically budgeted software upgrades and software development.

Research and development expenses increased by approximately $4.4 million in the three months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, primarily due to an increase in: i) direct labour and labour-related benefits and expenses of $5.2 million, and ii) overhead expenses of $2.0 million, offset by a decrease in consulting related expenses of $2.0 million. The remainder of the difference is due to a decrease in other miscellaneous items.

Research and development expenses increased by approximately $7.4 million in the six months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, primarily due to an increase in: i) direct labour and labour-related benefits and expenses of $8.9 million, and ii) overhead expenses of $2.8 million, offset by a decrease in consulting related expenses of $2.4 million. The remainder of the difference is due to a decrease in other miscellaneous items.

Overall, our research and development expenses, as a percentage of total revenue, have decreased in the three and six months ended December 31, 2009, as compared to the same periods in the prior fiscal year, as a result of efficiencies achieved from our restructuring efforts.

Headcount at December 31, 2009, related to research and development activities, increased by 207 employees compared to December 31, 2008.

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel expenses and costs associated with advertising and trade shows.

Sales and marketing expenses increased by $4.5 million in the three months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, primarily due to an increase in: i) direct labour and labour-related benefits and expenses of $4.3 million, and ii) overhead expenses of $2.5 million, offset by a decrease in office expenses of $1.8 million. The remainder of the difference is due to a decrease in other sales and marketing related expenses.

Sales and marketing expenses increased by $10.4 million in the six months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, primarily due to an increase in: i) direct labour and labour-related benefits and expenses of $9.2 million, ii) overhead expenses of $3.2 million, and consulting related expenses of $1.0 million offset by a decrease in office expenses of $1.5 million. The remainder of the difference is due to a decrease in other sales and marketing related expenses.

Overall, our sales and marketing expenses, as a percentage of total revenue, have decreased in the three and six months ended December 31, 2009, as compared to the same periods in the prior fiscal year, as a result of efficiencies achieved from our restructuring efforts.

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel expenses, related overhead, audit fees, consulting expenses and public company costs.

General and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue remained relatively stable at 9.0% and 8.8% for the three months ended December 31, 2009 and the three months ended December 31, 2008, respectively.

General and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue remained relatively stable at 9.5% and 9.4% for the six months ended December 31, 2009 and the six months ended December 31, 2008, respectively.

36

General and administrative expenses increased by $4.1 million in the three months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, which is primarily due to an increase in direct labour and labour-related benefits and expenses of $2.7 million. The remainder of the difference is mainly due to an increase in other general and administrative related expenses.

General and administrative expenses increased by $6.9 million in the three months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, which is primarily due to an increase in direct labour and labour-related benefits and expenses of $4.2 million, and ii) office expenses of $2.6 million.

Headcount at December 31, 2009, related to general and administrative activities, increased by 64 employees compared to December 31, 2008.

Depreciation expenses increased by $1.5 million and $2.9 million in the three and six months ended December 31, 2009, respectively, due to capital asset acquisitions.

Amortization of acquired intangible customer-based assets decreased by $1.4 million and $0.7 million in the three and six months ended December 31, 2009, respectively, due to a change in the allocated values of certain acquired intangible assets.

Special charges typically relate to amounts that we expect to pay on account of restructuring plans relating to employee workforce reduction and abandonment of excess facilities, impairment of long-lived assets, acquisition related costs (with effect from July 1, 2009 and onwards) and other non-recurring charges. Generally, we implement such plans in the context of streamlining existing Open Text operations with that of acquired entities. Actions related to such restructuring plans are, more often than not, completed within a period of one year. In certain limited situations, if the planned activity does not need to be implemented, or an expense lower than anticipated is paid out, we record a recovery of the originally recorded expense to Special charges.

In accordance with the new business combination accounting rules which are applicable to us with effect from July 1, 2009, acquisition-related expenses are required to be included in the determination of income and may not, as was permitted earlier, be capitalized as part of the cost of the acquisition. As a result, we recorded an additional expense (within Special charges) of $0.5 million and $1.9 million, in the three and six months ended December 31, 2009, respectively, on account of expenses related to our acquisition of Vignette.

For more details on Special charges, see Note 16.

Other income (expense) relates to certain non-operational charges consisting primarily of foreign exchange gains (losses), changes in the market value of financial assets/hedges, and tax-related penalties.

For the three months ended December 31, 2009, net other income increased by $10.8 million, as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year primarily due to the impact of transactional foreign currency gains in the current period.

For the six months ended December 31, 2009, net other income increased by $13.6 million, as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, primarily due to the impact of transactional foreign currency gains and the impact of the release of the unrealized gain (from accumulated comprehensive income to income) in the first quarter of Fiscal 2010, on account of Vignette shares purchased by Open Text through open market purchases in the amount of $4.4 million.

Net interest expense is primarily made up of cash interest paid on our debt facilities and the unrealized gain (loss) on our interest rate collar, offset by interest income earned on our cash and cash equivalents.

Interest expense relates primarily to interest paid on our $390.0 million long-term debt incurred in October 2006, (the term loan), for the purpose of partially financing our Hummingbird acquisition. The term loan bears floating-rate interest at LIBOR plus a fixed rate which is currently set at 2.25% per annum.

37

Net interest expense decreased by $2.6 million in the three and six months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the same periods in the prior fiscal year, primarily due to a decrease in the interest paid on the RBC loan on account of lower interest rates in the current period.

For more details on interest expenses see Note 11 and also the discussion under “Long-term Debt and Credit Facilities” under the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section of this MD&A.

Income taxes increased by $9.6 million in the three months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, primarily as the result of an increase in income before income taxes and the impact of changes in the global tax rates in the comparative periods.

Income taxes increased by $7.2 million in the six months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, primarily as the result of an increase in income before income taxes in the comparative periods, the de-recognition of certain transfer pricing benefits that no longer offset the tax liability and the impact of changes in the global tax rates in the comparative periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following table sets forth changes in cash flow from operating, investing and financing activities for the periods indicated:

	Six months ended December 31,				Change/ increase (decrease)
(In thousands)	2009		2008
Cash provided by operating activities	$	36,970	$	64,656	$	(27,686	)
Cash used by investing activities		72,635		133,572		(60,937	)
Cash provided by financing activities		4,081		10,971		(6,890	)

Cash flows provided by operating activities

Cash flows from operating activities were lower in the current period by $27.7 million due to increased restructuring-related payments of $12.8 million and lower cash inflows relating to working capital balances of $28.6 million. These items were offset by the positive impacts in the current period of an increased net income of $7.5 million and non cash charges of $6.2 million.

Cash flows used in investing activities

Cash flows used by investing activities decreased by $60.9 million in the six months ended December 31, 2009, primarily due to: i) $32.1 million of additional spending on acquisitions during the prior comparative quarter and ii) $38.5 million realized from the sale of short-term investments in the current period. These decreases were offset by $9.7 million of additional capital asset purchases in the current period.

Cash flows provided by financing activities

Our cash flows provided by financing activities consist of long-term debt financing, monies received from the issuance of shares exercised by our employees and excess tax benefits accruing upon the sale of Open Text stock options by employees. These inflows are typically offset by scheduled and non-scheduled repayments of our long-term debt financing and, when applicable, the repurchases of our shares.

Cash flows from financing activities decreased by $6.9 million in the six months ended December 31, 2009 compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, primarily because of a decrease in excess tax benefits on share-based compensation expense.

38

Long-term Debt and Credit Facilities

On October 2, 2006, we entered into a $465.0 million credit agreement (the credit agreement) with a Canadian chartered bank (the bank) consisting of the term loan facility in the amount of $390.0 million and a $75.0 million committed revolving long-term credit facility (the revolver). The term loan was used to partially finance the Hummingbird acquisition and the revolver will be used for general business purposes, if necessary. No amount has been drawn under the revolver to date. The credit agreement is guaranteed by us and certain of our subsidiaries. For details relating to this and our other credit facilities, see Note 11.

The material financial covenants under our term loan agreement are that:

• We must maintain a “consolidated leverage” ratio of no more than 3:1 at the end of each financial quarter. Consolidated leverage ratio is defined for this purpose as the proportion of our total debt, including guarantees and letters of credit, over our “trailing twelve months” net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA); and

• We must maintain a “consolidated interest coverage” ratio of 3:1 or more at the end of each financial quarter. Consolidated interest coverage ratio is defined for this purpose as our consolidated EBITDA over our consolidated interest expense.

As of December 31, 2009, we were in compliance with all loan covenants relating to this facility.

Normal Course Issuer Bid

On October 27, 2009, we announced our intention to renew our normal course issuer bid. All purchases are to be effected in the open market through the facilities of the NASDAQ Global Select Market, and in accordance with regulatory requirements. The actual number of common shares which are purchased and the timing of such purchases are determined by management, subject to compliance with applicable law. All common shares repurchased will be cancelled. We did not repurchase any common shares during the three and six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.

Commitments and Contractual Obligations

We have entered into the following contractual obligations with minimum annual payments for the indicated Fiscal periods as follows:

	Payments due by period ending June 30,
	Total		2010		2011 - 2012		2013 - 2014		2015 and beyond
Long-term debt obligations	$	329,904	$	5,689	$	33,265	$	290,950	$	—
Operating lease obligations *		123,873		15,820		42,339		26,933		38,781
Purchase obligations		4,137		1,347		2,420		370		—
	$	457,914	$	22,856	$	78,024	$	318,253	$	38,781

* Net of $8.3 million of non-cancelable sublease income to be received from properties which we have subleased to other parties.

The long-term debt obligations are comprised of interest and principal payments on our term loan agreement and a five-year mortgage on our headquarters in Waterloo, Ontario. See Note 11.

Litigation

We are subject from time to time to legal proceedings and claims, either asserted or unasserted, that arise in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of these proceedings and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, our management does not believe that the outcome of any of these legal matters will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

39

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not enter into off-balance sheet financing as a matter of practice except for the use of operating leases for office space, computer equipment, and vehicles. None of the operating leases described in the previous sentence has, or potentially may have, a material current or future effect on our financial condition (including any possible changes in our financial condition), revenue, expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, neither the lease liability nor the underlying asset is carried on the balance sheet, as the terms of the leases do not meet the criteria for capitalization.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These accounting principles require us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions upon which we rely are reasonable based upon information available to us at the time that these estimates, judgments and assumptions are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates, judgments and assumptions and actual results, our financial statements will be affected. The accounting policies that reflect our more significant estimates, judgments and assumptions and which we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results include the following:

• Revenue recognition

• Business combinations

• Goodwill and intangible assets—Impairment Assessments

• Accounting for income taxes

• Legal and other contingencies

• The valuation of stock options granted and liabilities related to share-based payments, including the long-term incentive plan

• Allowance for doubtful accounts

• Facility and restructuring accruals

• Financial instruments

• The valuation of pension assets and obligations

Please refer to our MD&A contained in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 for a more complete discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates.

New Accounting Standards

For information relating to new accounting pronouncements and the impact of these pronouncements on our consolidated financial statements, see Note 2.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are primarily exposed to market risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates on our term loan and foreign currency exchange rates.

Interest rate risk

Our exposure to interest rate fluctuations relate primarily to our term loan, as we had no borrowings outstanding under our line of credit as of December 31, 2009. As of December 31, 2009, we had an outstanding balance of $289.5 million on the term loan. The term loan bears a floating interest rate of LIBOR plus a fixed

rate of 2.25%. As of December 31, 2009, an adverse change in LIBOR of 100 basis points (1.0%) would have the effect of increasing our annual interest payment on the term loan by approximately $2.9 million, absent the impact of our interest rate collar referred to below and assuming that the loan balance as of December 31, 2009, is outstanding for the entire period.

We managed our interest rate exposure, relating to $100.0 million of the above mentioned term loan, with an interest rate collar that partially hedged the fluctuation in LIBOR. The collar has expired as of December 31, 2009 as per its contractual term.

Foreign currency risk

Our reporting currency is the U.S dollar. On account of our international operations, a substantial portion of our cash and cash equivalents is held in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. As of December 31, 2009, this balance represented approximately 50% of our total cash and cash equivalents. A 10% adverse change in foreign exchange rates versus the U.S. dollar would have decreased our reported cash and cash equivalents by approximately 5%.

Our international operations expose us to foreign currency fluctuations. Revenues and related expenses generated from subsidiaries, other than those located in the U.S, are generally denominated in the functional currencies of the local countries. These functional currencies include Euros, Canadian Dollars, Australian dollars and British Pounds. The income statements of our international operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in each applicable period. To the extent the U.S. dollar strengthens against foreign currencies, the foreign currency conversion of these foreign currency denominated transactions into U.S. dollars results in reduced revenues, operating expenses and net income (loss) for our international operations. Similarly, our revenues, operating expenses and net income (loss) will increase for our international operations, if the U.S. dollar weakens against foreign currencies. We cannot predict the effect foreign exchange fluctuations will have on our results going forward. However, if there is a change in foreign exchange rates versus the U.S. dollar, it could have a material effect on our results of operations.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of December 31, 2009, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act was recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that material information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

Based on the evaluation completed by our management, in which our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer participated, our management has concluded that there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Risk Factors

In addition to the information set forth below, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended June 30, 2009. These are not the only risks and uncertainties facing us. Our business is also subject to general risks and uncertainties that affect many other companies.

Our acquisition Vignette may adversely affect our operations in the short term

In July 2009, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Vignette Corporation. This acquisition represents a significant opportunity for our business. However, this acquisition also presents certain risks, including but not limited to:

• the risk that the potential benefits of this acquisition would not be realized fully as a result of challenges we might face in integrating the customers, technology, personnel and operations of the acquired company with ours;

• the risk that the potential benefits of this acquisition would not be realized fully as a result of general industry-wide conditions, macroeconomic developments or other factors;

• the risk that Open Text’s management will need to devote substantial time and resources to the integration of the acquired corporation with ours at the expense of attending to and growing Open Text’s business or other business opportunities; and

• the risk associated with any other additional demands that this acquisitions would place on our management.

We cannot ensure that we will be successful in retaining key Vignette employees. In addition, our operations may be disrupted if we fail to adequately retain and motivate all of the employees who work for the combined entity.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

Kirk Roberts

Dear Kirk:

This letter confirms our discussion at which time you were provided notice that Open Text Corporation (the “Company”, “Open Text”) is terminating your employment effective February 15, 2010 (Termination Date). As of the Termination Date, your service, employment, any pay, variable compensation or commission payments and benefits not expressly extended to you in this letter will end.

Your last day worked will be February 15, 2010. The period from today through the Termination Date inclusive shall serve to be the notice period. Also, to further assist you in finding alternate employment, we are providing the career services of our Employee Assistance Program (detailed below).

In addition to this notice period, the company has prepared the following severance package. Upon acceptance of this package, please sign one copy of this letter and return it to HR Services located in the Waterloo office no later than 5 business days from the date of this letter. Please fax for processing to 1-877-267-3647, mail in the signed original and retain the additional copy for your records.

1. Severance Payments

As per your Employment Agreement dated July 1, 2009, the Company will provide a total severance package of 20 months. This package includes 20 months of severance payments (as detailed below) beyond the notice period until October 15, 2011 (Severance End Date). Severance payments are less all withholding and other employment taxes required by law and other usual deductions and are made via direct deposit on our regular semi-monthly payroll schedule (15th and last day of the month). If this package is accepted, these payments begin immediately following your Termination Date. However, severance payments will not begin until all Company property is returned as outlined in the Return of Company Property Section below.

Total Severance Payments = $583,333.33 CDN

Semi-Monthly Severance Installments = $14,583.33 CDN ($583,333.33 CDN / 40)

In addition to the severance payment above, you will also receive:

1) Any Variable Compensation amount earned up to the Termination Date. We are unable at this time to estimate a possible payment. However, if a payment is made, it will follow the normal procedure and will be paid within 31 days of the amount being calculated and approved.

2) An amount equal to  ¹/12 of the Variable Compensation payment earned during the bonus year proceeding the current bonus year times the number of months referred to in the chart on Exhibit 1 of your Employment Agreement, based on your length of service (January 1, 1992). The total variable compensation paid to you from July 1, 2008 to June 30, 2009 was $196,558.00 CDN. This amount will be divided into 40 equal installments and will be included with your semi-monthly severance payment until October 15, 2011. Your semi-monthly payment will be $4,913.95 CDN.

3) As per the “STATEMENT OF WORK” section of your Consulting Letter Agreement, as a Consultant, you will be paid a monthly retainer of $200.00 CDN, to be invoiced monthly and payable within 30 days of submission of an approved invoice until October 15, 2011.

You acknowledge that these payments include all notice and severance to which you may be entitled pursuant to the Employment Standards Act or any other Ontario labour laws, which apply.

You further acknowledge that should you resume employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates during the Notice or Severance Period prescribed above, all payments described in this letter will cease and no additional payments will be due.

2. Outstanding Vacation Pay

All accrued, but unused vacation days, including time accrued during the statutory notice period will be paid with the next regularly scheduled payroll following the Termination Date. As per the vacation policy, any negative vacation balance will be deducted from your final pay.

3. Outstanding Expenses

If you have any outstanding expenses, your final expense report must be submitted to the Company for review and approval within five (5) business days of your Termination Date. Approved reimbursement payments shall be made by the Company within thirty (30) days after the Company’s receipt of your final expense report.

4. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP)

Typically, deductions to the ESPP will stop immediately, and all monies contributed in the current season will be refunded to you on your first pay during your notice period. In the event that your Termination Date occurs on or after the last day of the current purchase period, your deductions to the ESPP will continue until shares are purchased. In this circumstance, should you wish to have deductions cease, you must notify HR Services at least 5 business days prior to the last day of the current purchase period.

5. Stock Options

You may only exercise options that have vested prior to your Termination Date per the plan. Your stock options will continue to vest during the term of your consulting agreement. No options will vest following your Severance End Date (October 15, 2011) If you wish to exercise your stock options, please contact options-espp@opentext.com.

6. Long-Term Incentive Plan

As a participant in the company LTIP plans, you will be eligible for pro-rata payments, if in fact the company reaches all or some of the target objectives as per the plan document. Without knowing the outcome of company performance, we are unable to estimate possible payments at this time. However, if LTIP targets are reached, and a payment is required, it will follow the normal procedure by board approval.

a. For LTIP1, you will be eligible for a pro-rata payment equal to 32 of 36 months

b. For LTIP2, you will be eligible for a pro-rata payment equal to 20 of 36 months

Payments for all LTIP plans will most likely occur in the September time-frame after each of the plan periods close.

7. Group Insurance

All Group Insurance Benefits will terminate as of your Termination Date except for the following:

• Health and Dental Care plan (if applicable) at the level in which you are presently enrolled

• Emergency Out of Country Medical & Travel Assistance will be reduced to $50,000 with a limited 60 day stay outside Canada.

• The Employee Assistance Program (EAP)

These benefits will continue until your Severance End Date.

Should you wish to convert your Basic Life, Employee Optional Life and/or Spousal Optional Life and AD&D (if applicable) to a personal plan, please refer to the FAQ document attached for more information.

8. Group RRSP Contributions

Your participation in the Company’s RRSP, if applicable, will terminate as of your Termination Date and the Company will continue to match contributions based on the Plan guidelines until this date. If you would like to stop your RRSP prior to your Termination Date, please notify HR Services in writing. Further information regarding your RRSP Options will be mailed to your home address after your final RRSP contribution is made to the carrier.

To assist you in your job search, the Company will provide you with career transitioning services until the Severance End Date through Ceridian’s Employee Assistance Program. You can access this service by calling Ceridian’s toll-free call center at 877-207-8833.
