Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement |
On January 31, 2011, Taleo Corporation (“Taleo”) entered into an Acquisition Agreement for Plan of Arrangement (the “Acquisition Agreement”) by and among Taleo, Taleo Acquisition Corp., a British Columbia corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Taleo (“Sub”), and Cytiva Software Inc., a British Columbia corporation (“Cytiva”). The Acquisition Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Acquisition Agreement, Taleo will acquire Cytiva through the acquisition by Sub of each outstanding security of Cytiva (the “Acquisition”).
Pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, Taleo will pay consideration consisting of approximately $11.0 million Canadian dollars in cash in exchange for all of the outstanding securities of Cytiva. Taleo will not assume any options to acquire Cytiva’s common shares.

The Acquisition has been approved by both companies’ boards of directors and is subject to the approval of Cytiva’s shareholders, the approval of the British Columbia court, regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions. The Acquisition Agreement contains certain termination rights for both Taleo and Cytiva.
The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Acquisition Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
