SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On October 23, 2012, we settled the lawsuit with SIPCO, LLC (see Note 16 to our Consolidated Financial Statements).
On November 1, 2012 we announced the acquisition of Etherios, Inc., a Chicago based consulting and professional services organization and salesforce.com Platinum Partner that uses a new cloud-based method for integrating machines into core business processes via the Salesforce Service Cloud. The purchase price for the transaction was $20.5 million, payable in cash and approximately 715,000 shares of our common stock. A significant portion of the issued shares are restricted from sale for either 6 or 12 months.
