On December 20, 1995, the Company’s directors and shareholders adopted the 1995 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) for employees who are contributing significantly to the business of the Company or its subsidiaries as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors or the committee administering the Plan. The Plan currently provides for the grant of incentive and non-qualified stock options to purchase up to 13,000,000 shares of Common Stock at the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company or a committee designated by the Board of Directors to administer the Plan.

 

The option exercise price of incentive stock options must be at least 100% (110% in the case of a holder of 10% or more of the Company’s common stock) of the fair market value of the stock on the date the option is granted and the options are exercisable by the holder thereof in full at any time prior to their expiration in accordance with the terms of the Plan. Incentive stock options granted

pursuant to the Plan will expire on or before (1) the date which is the tenth anniversary of the date the option is granted, or (2) the date which is the fifth anniversary of the date the option is granted in the event that the option is granted to a key employee who owns more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company. Options granted under the Plan typically vest over a period of four to five years. As of April 15, 2005, options to purchase 6,593,534216 shares of Common Stock were outstanding pursuant to the Plan.

 

Directors Plan. The Company’s directors and shareholders have adopted the Non-Management Directors’ Stock Option Plan (the “Directors Plan”). The purpose of the Directors Plan is to secure for the Company the benefits of the additional incentive inherent in the ownership of the Company’s common stock by non-employee directors of the Company and to help the Company secure and retain the services of such non-employee directors. The Directors Plan is intended to be a self-governing formula plan. To this end, the Directors Plan requires minimal discretionary action by any administrative body with regard to any transaction under the Directors Plan. Eligible persons under the Directors Plan are directors of the Company who are not employees of the Company or any affiliate of the Company (“Outside Directors”). A maximum of 300,000 shares of common stock have been reserved by the Company for issuance pursuant to options under the Directors Plan, which number is subject to adjustment in certain circumstances in order to prevent dilution or enlargement. Each Outside Director is granted an option to purchase 25,000 shares of common stock upon joining the Board of Directors of the Company. Each Outside Director is also granted an option to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock as of the last business day of each fiscal year.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.

 

On January 31, 2004 the Company completed a tax-free split-off of its enterprise software business, now known as BlueCube Software, to Erez Goren, the Company’s former Co-Chairman of the Board and Co-Chief Executive Officer. The split-off transaction received the approval of approximately 70% of the disinterested shareholders of Radiant at the special meeting of shareholders held on January 30, 2004. Approval of a majority of the disinterested shareholders was a condition to the closing of the transaction. Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, Radiant contributed specified assets and liabilities of the enterprise software business, together with $4.0 million in cash, to the newly formed subsidiary, and then transferred all of the shares of the new company to Erez Goren in exchange for the redemption of 2.0 million shares of common stock of the Company. The shares redeemed represented approximately 7.0% of the Company’s outstanding shares. The consideration for the transaction was determined based on arms-length negotiations between Mr. Goren and the special committee of the Company’s independent directors. Mr. Goren also entered into a Noncompetition Agreement with the Company in connection with the split-off transaction.

 

The Company has a contractual obligation for performance under certain existing customer contracts that have not been assigned to BlueCube because they require the consent of the customer (Legacy contracts). Under a Reseller and Services Agreement, BlueCube is obligated to fulfill the terms of these agreements, including providing hosting, support, maintenance and professional services. BlueCube will act as the Company’s subcontractor, and indemnify the Company for any losses associated with its performance or non-performance of the contract obligations. Additionally, the Company maintains rights to access product source code and information needed to fulfill contract obligations if BlueCube fails to perform. For a limited number of existing customer contracts, the Company and BlueCube have shared liability, which includes penalties, for a period of 18 months after January 31, 2004, based upon the revenue received by each party under the contract. For one of these contracts, milestones defined in the original contract were amended. Failure to meet these amended milestones could result in penalties and/or losses, the amount of which cannot be estimated. In management’s opinion, it is not probable that the Company will incur penalties/losses on this contract. In addition to the initial cash included in the transaction there is approximately $4.4 million of unearned revenue that will be transferred to BlueCube. The cash for the unearned revenue will be transferred upon the assignment of customer contracts or the performance of obligations associated with Legacy contracts. Management expects the majority of this cash to be transferred over the next 18 months.

 

The Company has agreed to sublease a portion of its leased property to BlueCube. This sublease will expire concurrently with the Company’s operating lease on the property in January 2013. BlueCube has the right to early termination beginning on January 31, 2007, and must provide the Company with an 18-month notice that early termination will occur. Aggregate future minimum lease payments under this sublease agreement as of January 31, 2004, are approximately: $1.2 million in 2004, $1.3 million in 2005, $1.5 million for years 2006 through 2010, and a total of $3.0 million over the remaining 25 months of the lease. In conjunction with this sublease agreement, the Company and BlueCube entered into a right of refusal and option agreement pertaining to real property currently owned by the Company and adjacent to the property being subleased by BlueCube. Under this agreement, BlueCube has an option to purchase the real property at a stated value, which management believes is the fair value at the time of the split-off. BlueCube has the right of refusal if the Company obtains an offer to sell the real property to another party. The exercising of this right will result in BlueCube purchasing the real property at a price based on a formula and the third-party offer obtained by the Company. This agreement is subordinate to a right of first refusal with a third-party.
