Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
On July 20, 2006, the Registrant announced that it had agreed to acquire the interactive medical education, promotion and physician recruitment businesses of Medsite, Inc. (which we refer to as the Acquired Business or Medsite). The Registrant completed the acquisition on September 11, 2006. Medsite provides e-detailing services for pharmaceutical, medical device and healthcare companies, including program development, targeted recruitment and online distribution and delivery. In addition, Medsite provides educational programs to physicians. The results of operations of Medsite will be included in the Registrant’s Online Services segment from September 11, 2006, the closing date of the acquisition.
Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement (which we refer to as the Purchase Agreement), dated as of July 19, 2006, among Medsite, Inc., Medsite Acquisition Corp., MedsiteCME, LLC and Medsite Pharmaceutical Services, LLC (collectively, the Sellers) and June Plum, Inc. (a wholly owned subsidiary of the Registrant formed for purposes of the acquisition), June Plum, Inc. purchased all of the assets and assumed certain specified liabilities of the Sellers related to the Acquired Business. The Sellers retained all assets that are not part of the Acquired Business and all liabilities that are not specifically assumed by June Plum, Inc.
The purchase price for the Acquired Business was $41 million in cash, subject to customary post-closing adjustment based on net working capital at closing. Ten percent of the purchase price was placed into an escrow at the closing as a source for effecting indemnification payments, if any, to June Plum, Inc. The remainder of the purchase price was paid to an account that was established by the Sellers to hold proceeds from the sale and will be distributed by the Sellers following a determination of the allocation of the proceeds among the stockholders of Medsite, Inc.
The Purchase Agreement is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report and is incorporated herein by reference. This summary of the provisions of the Purchase Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreement.
The terms of the Purchase Agreement were determined on the basis of arms-length negotiations. Prior to the execution of the Purchase Agreement, there was no material relationship between any of the Sellers and the Registrant, any affiliate of the Registrant, or any director or officer of the Registrant, and, to the knowledge of the Registrant, there was no material relationship between any of the Sellers and any associate of any director or officer of the Registrant.
