Item 5. Other Events and Regulation FD Disclosure.
On February 18, 2004, IpLearn, LLC filed a patent infringement suit against Click2learn, Inc. in the Northern District of California asserting seven patent infringement claims related to online learning. IpLearn previously filed a patent infringement suit against Docent, Inc. and several other major providers of online learning software asserting infringement of many of the same patents. The complaint did not state any specific claim for monetary damages. Click2learn has retained patent counsel to represent it in this matter and intends to vigorously defend itself against these claims. However, if IpLearn prevails on its claims, we may be required to license one or more of these patents on terms that may or may not be favorable or we may be forced to alter our software products which are the subject of these claims, either of which may adversely affect our revenue and operating results.
