TABLE OF CONTENTS
Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
As previously reported, Selectica, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Selectica”), has been engaged in patent litigation with Trilogy Software, Inc. and Trilogy Group (collectively, “Trilogy”) since April 22, 2004. On April 22, 2004, Trilogy filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas Marshall Division, alleging patent infringement against Selectica. On September 2, 2004, Selectica filed counterclaims in the Eastern District of Texas Marshall Division action against Trilogy alleging infringement of certain of Selectica’s patents. Selectica has entered into a binding Memorandum of Understanding, dated as of January 7, 2006 (the “Memorandum”), with Trilogy which amicably settles the pending patent lawsuit described above. Pursuant to the terms of the Memorandum, Selectica will make a one time payment to Trilogy of $7.5 million, and Trilogy and Selectica will enter into a cross license of the asserted patents for the life of the patents and mutually dismiss with prejudice all claims made against the other in the litigation.
The parties have agreed that the resolution of this lawsuit does not constitute an admission or concession of liability or fault by either party.
