(1) Beneficial ownership of 3,321,922 Shares (as defined herein) included herein is being reported hereunder solely because the Reporting Person may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of such Shares as a result of the Tender and Voting Agreement described below. Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission by any Reporting Person that it is the beneficial owner of any such Shares for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or for any other purpose and such beneficial ownership thereof is expressly disclaimed.
(2) The above calculation is based on 16,388,826 Shares outstanding (as disclosed by the Issuer to the Reporting Person) as of October 6, 2015.


Item 1. Security and Issuer

This Schedule 13D ( “Schedule 13D”) relates to shares of Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), of Daegis Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). The address of the principal executive offices of the Issuer is 600 E. Las Colinas Blvd, Suite 1500, Irving, TX 75039.

Item 2. Identity and Background

This Schedule 13D is being filed by Open Text Corporation, a Canadian corporation (the “Reporting Person”). The address of the principal business and principal offices of the Reporting Person is 275 Frank Tompa Drive, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada N2L OA1. The Reporting Person is the world’s largest independent provider of Enterprise Content Management software.

The Reporting Person is the sole stockholder of Open Text Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, which is the sole stockholder of Company D Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”).

The name, business address, present principal occupation or employment and citizenship of each executive officer and director of the Reporting Person and the name, principal business and address of any corporation or other organization in which such employment is conducted is set forth in Schedule A hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

During the past five years, neither the Reporting Person nor, to the knowledge of the Reporting Person, any of the persons listed on Schedule A hereto (i) has been convicted in any criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (ii) was a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

The total amount of funds required by the Reporting Person to acquire the Issuer, including the purchase of Shares (as defined below) pursuant to the Merger Agreement described in Item 4 and the Merger (as defined below), is estimated to be approximately $23 million. The Reporting Person will obtain funds from cash on hand and/or cash generated from general corporate activities in the ordinary course of business to fund the Offer Price (as defined below) and the Merger Consideration (as defined in the Merger Agreement).

As a result of the execution of the Tender and Voting Agreement (as defined below), the Reporting Person may be deemed to have acquired beneficial ownership of 3,321,922 Shares (as defined below) to the extent provided therein. The Tender and Voting Agreement was entered into as a condition to the Reporting Person’s and Merger Sub’s willingness to enter into and perform their obligations under the Merger Agreement (as defined below). The Reporting Person and Merger Sub requested that each Stockholder (as defined below) enter into the Tender and Voting Agreement, and each Stockholder agreed to do so in order to induce the Reporting Person and Merger Sub to enter into, and in consideration of their entering into, the Merger Agreement. The Reporting Person did not pay any consideration to the Stockholders in connection with the execution and delivery of the Tender and Voting Agreement. Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission by the Reporting Person that it is the beneficial owner of any of the 3,321,922 Shares for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or for any other purpose and such beneficial ownership thereof is expressly disclaimed.

The information set forth or incorporated by reference in Item 4 is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Merger Agreement

On October 8, 2015, the Reporting Person, Merger Sub and the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, and on the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, among other things, Merger Sub will commence a tender offer (the “Offer”) no later than October 23, 2015 to acquire all outstanding shares of Common Stock (“Shares”), at a purchase price of $0.82 per Share net to the seller in cash (the “Offer Price”), without interest thereon and subject to any required withholding taxes.

The obligation of Merger Sub to consummate the Offer is conditioned upon (i) there having been validly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Offer that number of Shares that would represent at least a majority of Shares then outstanding but excluding Shares that are owned as of the date of the commencement of the Offer by the Issuer or any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Issuer and excluding any Shares tendered by notice of guaranteed delivery but not actually delivered to the depositary prior to the expiration time of the Offer, (ii) no Company Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Merger Agreement) having occurred following the date of the Merger Agreement and (iii) the satisfaction of other customary conditions.

As soon as practicable following consummation of the Offer and the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions and without a stockholder vote to adopt the Merger Agreement or to effect the Merger in accordance with Section 251(h) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Issuer (the “Merger”) and the Issuer will be the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”) and a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Reporting Person.

At the consummation of the Merger, the Issuer is required to deliver to the Reporting Person evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Reporting Person of the resignation of the directors of the Issuer and its subsidiaries (other than directors of the Issuer’s subsidiaries whom the Reporting Person determines shall continue to serve in such capacities following the date and time at which the Merger becomes effective (the “Effective Time”)), effective at the Effective Time. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the board of directors of the Surviving Corporation, effective as of, and immediately following, the Effective Time will consist of the directors of Merger Sub and the officers of the Surviving Corporation will consist of the Issuer’s officers immediately prior to the Effective Time.

At the Effective time, the certificate of incorporation of the Issuer will be amended in the Merger to be identical to the certificate of incorporation of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time (except that such certificate of incorporation will be amended to provide the name of the Surviving Corporation will be the name of the Issuer). Also at the Effective Time, the bylaws of Merger Sub will be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.

Upon the consummation of the Merger, each share of common stock of Merger Sub outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one fully paid, nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation, which shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation.

Pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act, at the Effective Time, the shares of Common Stock will become eligible for deregistration and the Reporting Person will cause the shares of Common Stock to be deregistered. In addition, the Reporting Person will cause the shares of Common Stock to be delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market, if such shares are not already delisted.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Merger Agreement which is attached to this Schedule 13D as Exhibit 1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Tender and Voting Agreement

Concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement, on October 8, 2015, Timothy P. Bacci, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer, Susan K. Conner, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer of the Issuer, all directors of the Issuer, and an affiliate of Mr. Bacci (each, a “Stockholder” and, collectively the “Stockholders”) entered into the Tender and Voting Agreement (the “Tender and Voting Agreement”) with the Reporting Person and Merger Sub pursuant to which each such person or entity agreed, among other things, to tender his or its Shares pursuant to the Offer and to vote against (i) any competing Acquisition Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement) or any proposal relating to any Acquisition Proposal, (ii) any merger (other than the Merger), consolidation or other combination involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries or a reorganization, recapitalization, extraordinary dividend, dissolution or liquidation of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (iii) to the extent submitted to a stockholder vote, any change in the business, management or board of directors of the Issuer (other than as directed by the Reporting Person, Merger Sub or any the Reporting Person subsidiary) or (iv) any other action, proposal or agreement that would (A) reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with, materially delay or postpone the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, (B) result in any of the Offer Conditions (as described in the Merger Agreement) or conditions to the Merger not being fulfilled or satisfied or (C) change in any manner the dividend policy or capitalization of, including the voting rights of any class of equity security interests in, the Issuer.

The Tender and Voting Agreement terminates upon the earlier of (a) the termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms, (b) the consummation of the Offer, (c) the mutual written agreement of the parties thereto to terminate the Tender and Voting Agreement, and (d) any modification to the terms of the Offer for which the Issuer’s consent is required and to which the Issuer has not consented.

As of October 8, 2015, the Stockholders collectively owned a number of Shares equal to approximately 20.3% of the issued and outstanding Shares. In addition, the Stockholders collectively hold (as of October 8, 2015) options (whether vested or unvested) for an aggregate of 1,099,800 Shares. If a Stockholder acquires Shares that are subject to the Tender and Voting Agreement, then those Shares would also be subject to the terms of the Tender and Voting Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Tender and Voting Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Tender and Voting Agreement which is attached to this Schedule 13D as Exhibit 2 and incorporated herein by reference.

The Merger Agreement and the Tender and Voting Agreement have been provided solely to inform investors of their terms. They are not intended to be, and should not be relied upon as, a source of financial, business or operational information about the Issuer, the Reporting Person, Merger Sub or their respective affiliates. The representations and warranties contained in the Merger Agreement and the Tender and Voting Agreement are made only for purposes of the Merger Agreement and the Tender and Voting Agreement, respectively, and are made as of specific dates; are solely for the benefit of their respective parties; may be subject to qualifications and limitations agreed upon by the parties to such agreement in connection with negotiating the terms of such agreement, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purpose of allocating contractual risk between the parties instead of establishing matters as facts; and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors or security holders. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties, covenants and certain closing conditions may change after the date of the Merger Agreement and the Tender and Voting Agreement, as applicable, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in public disclosures. The representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement and/or the Tender and Voting Agreement also may not be accurate or complete as of any specified date and may be subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from those generally applicable to stockholders. The representations and warranties contained in the Merger Agreement and incorporated by reference into this Schedule 13D have been negotiated with the principal purpose of establishing the circumstances in which Merger Sub may have the right not to consummate the Offer, or a party may have the right to terminate the Merger Agreement, if the representations and warranties of the other party prove to be untrue due to a change in circumstance or otherwise, and to allocate risk between the parties, rather than establish matters as facts. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties, which do not purport to be accurate as of the date of this Schedule 13D, may have changed since the date of the Merger Agreement and the Tender and Voting Agreement and subsequent developments or new information qualifying a representation or warranty may not be included in this Schedule 13D.

Confidentiality Agreement

Prior to entering into the Merger Agreement, the Issuer and the Reporting Person entered into a Mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement, dated as of August 10, 2015 (as amended, the “Confidentiality Agreement”). As a condition to being furnished confidential information of the Issuer, the Reporting Person agreed, among other things, to keep such confidential information confidential and to use it only for specified purposes. The Confidentiality Agreement also contained provisions that prohibit the Reporting Person, until August 10, 2017, from taking the following actions:

 

  (a) entering into any discussions, negotiations, agreements, arrangement or understandings (whether written or oral) with any Person (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement), other than the Issuer and its representatives, regarding the Transaction (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement);

 

  (b) directly or indirectly restricting the ability of any other Person to provide financing (debt, equity or otherwise) to any other Person for the Transaction or any similar transaction; or

 

  (c) disclosing any such confidential information, without the prior written consent of the Issuer, to any actual or potential sources of financing (debt, equity or otherwise) other than to bona fide third party institutional lenders who are or may be engaged to provide debt financing to the Reporting Person or its affiliates.

In addition, the Confidentiality Agreement contains a non-solicitation provision, prohibiting the Reporting Person, during the one year period commencing on the date of the Confidentiality Agreement, from soliciting for employment any officer, director, or employee of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries or divisions in an executive or management level position or who is otherwise considered by the Issuer (in its sole discretion) to be a key employee with whom the Reporting Person had contact or became aware of in connection with a possible transaction (subject to certain exceptions described in the Confidentiality Agreement). Under the Merger Agreement, the Reporting Person and Merger Sub must, and must cause their affiliates and representatives to, comply with the Confidentiality Agreement as if a party to the Confidentiality Agreement. The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Confidentiality Agreement, which is attached to this Schedule 13D as Exhibit 3 and incorporated herein by reference.

Other than as described in this Item 4, the Reporting Person currently has no plans or proposals that relate to, or may result in, any of the matters listed in Items 4(a)-(j) of Schedule 13D.

THIS TENDER AND VOTING AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of October 8, 2015, is made by and among Open Text Corporation, a Canadian corporation (“Parent”), Company D Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), and each Stockholder listed on Annex I (each, a “Stockholder” and collectively, the “Stockholders”), each an owner of shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Daegis Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the respective meanings specified in the Merger Agreement.

WHEREAS, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company propose to enter into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof (as it may be amended from time to time in accordance with its terms, the “Merger Agreement”), which provides, among other things, for Merger Sub to commence a tender offer (the “Offer”) for all of the issued and outstanding Shares and the subsequent merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement.

WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, each Stockholder is the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of the number of Shares set forth opposite such Stockholder’s name under the heading “Shares Beneficially Owned” on Annex I (all such Shares that are outstanding as of the date hereof, together with any other Shares that such Stockholder acquires beneficial ownership after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time, including any Shares acquired by purchase, stock dividend, distribution, stock split, split-up, merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, combination or similar transaction or issued upon the exercise of any options, the conversion of any convertible securities, pursuant to the settlement of any restricted stock unit, or otherwise, being referred to herein as the “Subject Shares;” provided that “Subject Shares” shall not include Shares beneficially owned in the form of Company Stock Options to the extent such Shares and/or Company Stock Options remain unvested or unexercised, as the case may be, at any time Shares are to be tendered pursuant to Section 1.01); and

WHEREAS, as a condition to their willingness to enter into Merger Agreement, Parent and Merger Sub have requested that each Stockholder, and in order to induce Parent and Merger Sub to enter into the Merger Agreement, each Stockholder (in such Stockholder’s capacity as a Stockholder of the Company) has agreed to, enter into this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company has, prior to the execution of this Agreement, unanimously approved this Agreement, the Merger Agreement and the Transactions; and

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration given to each party hereto, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

10


Agreement has been terminated in the event that the remedies provided for in this Section 4.16 are not available or otherwise are not granted and (b) nothing set forth in this Section 4.16 shall require any party hereto to institute any Proceeding for (or limit any party’s right to institute any Proceeding for) specific performance under this Section 4.16 prior or as a condition to exercising any termination right under Section 4.04 (and pursuing damages after such termination), nor shall the commencement of any Proceeding pursuant to this Section 4.16 or anything set forth in this Section 4.16 restrict or limit any party’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of Section 4.04 or pursue any other remedies under this Agreement that may be available at any time.

Section 4.17    Stockholder Capacity. It is understood that each Stockholder enters into this Agreement solely in such Stockholder’s capacity as a stockholder of the Company.

MUTUAL CONFIDENTIALITY/NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT

This Agreement is made on August 10, 2015 by and between DAEGIS, INC., having a principal place of business at 600 East Las Colinas Blvd., Suite 1500, Irving, Texas 75039 and Open Text Corporation, having a principal place of business at 275 Frank Tompa Drive, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada (“you” or the “Other Party”).

You have requested information regarding Daegis Inc., a Delaware corporation (collectively, with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) with respect to a proposed Transaction as detailed below. Such a Transaction could include a possible purchase of all or a portion of the stock, assets or business of the Company, or any related transactions as may be mutually agreed to between you and the Company (each, a “Transaction”). In connection with your consideration of any possible Transaction, the Company is prepared to furnish you with certain “Evaluation Material” (as defined in Appendix A hereto) in accordance with the provisions of this agreement (the “Confidentiality Agreement”).

 

  1. Use of Evaluation Material.

You and each individual or entity you provide access to the Evaluation Material agree: (a) to use the Evaluation Material solely for the purpose of determining whether you wish to enter into any possible Transaction and the terms thereof, and (b) subject to the section captioned “Legally Required Disclosure” below, to keep the Evaluation Material strictly confidential, and not to disclose or use any of the Evaluation Material in any manner inconsistent with this Confidentiality Agreement; provided, however, that any of such information may be disclosed to your Affiliates (as defined in Appendix A hereto) and the Representatives (as defined in Appendix A hereto) who need to know such information for the sole purpose of helping you evaluate a possible Transaction. You agree to be responsible for any breach of this Confidentiality Agreement by any of your Affiliates and the Representatives.

 

  2. Non-Disclosure of Discussions.

Subject to the section captioned “Legally Required Disclosure” below, you agree that you will not, and you will cause your Affiliates and the Representatives not to disclose to any other Person (as defined in Appendix A hereto): (a) that Evaluation Material has been provided to you or any Permitted Co-bidder (as defined in Appendix A hereto) or that you or any Permitted Co-bidder have received or inspected any portion of the Evaluation Material, (b) the existence or contents of this Confidentiality Agreement, (c) that discussions or negotiations concerning a possible Transaction are taking place or (d) any of the terms, conditions or other facts with respect thereto (including the status thereof), provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to inhibit, impair or restrict you or the Representatives from having discussions or negotiations with other Persons relating to potential financing in connection with the possible Transaction so long as each of such Person agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Confidentiality Agreement pursuant to a joinder agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company.

 

LOGO


  3. Legally Required Disclosure.

If you or any of the Representatives are requested or required (in the opinion of your counsel) by order of court, legal proceedings, subpoena, civil investigative demand, a governmental agency, a stock exchange or other similar process to disclose any of the Evaluation Material or any of the facts, disclosure of which is prohibited under this Confidentiality Agreement, you will provide the Company with prompt written notice of any such requests or requirements together with copies of the material proposed to be disclosed so that the Company may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Confidentiality Agreement. If, in the absence of a protective order or other remedy or the receipt of a waiver by the Company, you or the Representatives are nonetheless legally compelled to disclose the Evaluation Material or any of the facts, disclosure of which is prohibited under this Confidentiality Agreement, or otherwise be liable for contempt or suffer other censure or penalty, you or the Representatives in question may, without liability hereunder, disclose to such requiring Person only that portion of such Evaluation Material or any such facts which you or the Representatives, on the advice of your counsel, are legally required to disclose, provided that you or the Representatives shall exercise reasonable efforts to preserve the privileged nature and confidentiality of such Evaluation Material or any of such facts, including, without limitation, by cooperating with the Company to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such Evaluation Material or such facts by the Person receiving the material.

 

  4. Representations and Warranties.

(a)    You hereby represent and warrant that you are not acting as a broker for or representative of any other Person in connection with the Transaction, and are considering the Transaction only for your own account. Except with the prior written consent of the Company, you agree that (a) you will not act as a joint bidder or co-bidder with any other Person with respect to the Transaction, other than Permitted Co-bidders, and (b) neither you nor any of the Representatives (acting on behalf of you or your Affiliates) will enter into any discussions, negotiations, agreements, arrangements or understandings (whether written or oral) with any other Person regarding the Transaction, other than the Company and its representatives.

(b)    You hereby represent and warrant that neither you nor any of your Affiliates or the Representatives is party to any agreement, arrangement or understanding (whether written or oral) that would restrict the ability of any other Person to provide financing (debt, equity or otherwise) to any other Person for the Transaction or any similar transaction, and you hereby agree that neither you nor any of your Affiliates or the Representatives will directly or indirectly restrict the ability of any other Person to provide any such financing.

(c)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, without the prior written consent of the Company, you agree that neither you, your Affiliates, nor any of your or the Representatives will disclose any Evaluation Material to any actual or potential sources of financing (debt, equity or otherwise), other than (a) bona fide third party institutional lenders who are or may be engaged to provide debt financing to you or your Affiliates or (b) Permitted Co-bidders.

 

LOGO


  5. Return or Destruction of Evaluation Material.

If you decide that you do not wish to proceed with a possible Transaction, you will promptly inform the Company of this decision. In that case, or at any time upon the written request of the Company for any reason, you will, and will cause your Affiliates and the Representatives to, within ten (10) days after the request, destroy or return all Evaluation Material and no copy, extract, or other reproductions thereof (including electronic copies) shall be retained. No such termination will affect your obligations hereunder or those of the Representatives. If requested by the Company, you will, and will cause the Representatives to, provide written certification to the Company that all such material (including electronic copies) has been returned or destroyed in compliance with this Confidentiality Agreement. Notwithstanding the return or destruction of the Evaluation Material, you and the Representatives shall continue to be bound by their obligations of confidentiality and other obligations hereunder.

 

  6. No Solicitation.

For a period of one (1) year following the date of this Confidentiality Agreement, you will not, directly or indirectly, solicit for employment any officer, director, or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or divisions in an executive or management level position or who is otherwise considered by the Company (in its sole discretion) to be a key employee, in each case, with whom you have had contact or became known to you in connection with your considerations of a Transaction, except that you shall not be deemed to be in violation of this provision as a result of any such employee who: (i) initiates discussions regarding such employment without any direct or indirect solicitation by you or (ii) responds to any public advertisement or search firm communications that are not directed specifically to any of the Persons described herein.

 

  7. Maintaining Privileges.

If any Evaluation Material (including Evaluation Material related to pending or threatened litigation) includes materials or information subject to the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or any other applicable privilege, you understand and agree that you and the Company have a commonality of interest with respect to such matters and it is the desire, intention and mutual understanding of each party to this Confidentiality Agreement that the sharing of such material is not intended to, and shall not, waive or diminish in any way the confidentiality of such material or its continued protection under the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or other applicable privilege. All Evaluation Material provided to you that is entitled to protection under the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or other applicable privilege shall remain entitled to such protection under these privileges, this Confidentiality Agreement, and under the joint defense doctrine.

 

  8. Not a Transaction Agreement.

You understand and agree that no contract or agreement providing for a Transaction shall be deemed to exist between you and the Company unless and until you and the Company execute and deliver a final definitive agreement relating to a Transaction (a “Transaction Agreement”), and you hereby waive, in advance, any claims (including, without limitation, breach of contract) relating to the existence of a Transaction unless and until you and the Company shall have executed and delivered a Transaction

 

LOGO


Agreement. You also agree that, unless and until you and the Company shall have executed and delivered a Transaction Agreement, neither you nor the Company will be under any legal obligation of any kind whatsoever with respect to such Transaction by virtue of this Confidentiality Agreement except for the matters specifically agreed to herein. You further acknowledge and agree that the Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to reject any proposals made by you, your Affiliates or any of the Representatives with regard to a Transaction, and to terminate discussion and negotiations with you at any time and for any reason or no reason. You understand that the Company shall be free to establish and change any process or procedure with respect to any possible Transaction as the Company in its sole discretion shall determine (including, without limitation, negotiating with any other interested party and entering into a final definitive agreement relating to a Transaction with any other party without prior notice to you or any other Person).

 

  9. No Representations or Warranties; No Obligation to Disclose.

You understand and acknowledge that the Company and its Affiliates and representatives have made and make no representation hereunder, express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of the Evaluation Materials, expressly disclaim any and all liability for the information contained in or omitted from the Evaluation Material furnished by or on behalf of the Company and shall have no liability to you, your Affiliates or the Representatives or any other Person relating to or resulting from the use of the Evaluation Material or any errors therein or omissions therefrom. The parties agree that the Company will only be liable for any representations or warranties which are made in a Transaction Agreement, when, as, and if executed and delivered, and subject to such limitations and restrictions as may be specified therein. Nothing in this Confidentiality Agreement shall be construed as obligating the Company to provide, or to continue to provide, any information to any Person. It is expected that you will conduct your own independent investigation of the Company and rely upon such investigation in making an investment decision regarding the Company.

 

  10. Remedies.

It is understood and agreed that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Confidentiality Agreement by you, your Affiliates or the Representatives, and that the Company shall be entitled to equitable relief, including injunction and specific performance, as a remedy for any such breach or threat thereof. Such remedies shall not be deemed to be the exclusive remedies for a breach of this Confidentiality Agreement and shall be in addition to all other remedies available at law or equity to the Company.

 

  11. Severability.

If any term, provision, covenant or restriction contained in this Confidentiality Agreement is held by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants or restrictions contained in this Confidentiality Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and if a covenant or provision is determined to be unenforceable by reason of its extent, duration, scope or otherwise, then the parties intend and hereby request that the court or other authority making that determination shall only modify such extent, duration, scope or other provision to the extent necessary to make it enforceable and enforce them in their modified form for all purposes of this Confidentiality Agreement.

 

LOGO


  12. Term.

Unless explicitly stated otherwise herein, this Confidentiality Agreement will terminate two (2) years from the date hereof and be governed by Texas law.

 

  13. Modifications and Waiver.

No provision of this Confidentiality Agreement can be waived or amended in favor of the parties hereto except by written consent of the other party, which consent shall specifically refer to such provision and explicitly make such waiver or amendment. No failure or delay by either party hereto in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder.

 

  14. Repositories.

The terms of this Confidentiality Agreement shall control over any additional purported confidentiality requirements imposed by any offering memorandum, web-based database or similar repository of Evaluation Material to which the you or any of the Representatives is granted access in connection with the evaluation, negotiation or consummation of the Transaction, notwithstanding acceptance of such an offering memorandum or submission of an electronic signature, “clicking” on an “I Agree” icon or other indication of assent to such additional confidentiality conditions, it being understood and agreed that its confidentiality obligations with respect to Evaluation Material are exclusively governed by this Agreement and may not be enlarged except by a written agreement that is hereafter executed by each of the parties hereto.

 

  15. Entire Agreement.

This Confidentiality Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties hereto regarding the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, arrangements and discussions between the parties hereto regarding such subject matter.

If you are in agreement with the foregoing, please sign and return one copy of this Confidentiality Agreement, it being understood that all counterpart copies will constitute but one agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof.
