ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS
On August 11, 2004 we entered into a software and services engagement agreement (“Base Agreement”) with International Business Machines Corporation (“IBM”) pursuant to which we will develop software, and modifications to software, that will enable our existing and future software products to inter-operate with software products of IBM. The Base Agreement specifies the principal terms and conditions that will govern the relationship between IBM and us. The Base Agreement will remain in effect until terminated. From time to time we and IBM will agree upon specific development projects to be governed by the Base Agreement with each such project documented in a Statement of Work.
On August 17, 2004, we and IBM executed the first Statement of Work governed by the Base Agreement, pursuant to which we will provide software and services to IBM that will enable the integration of our Click to Meet and Conference Server products with IBM’s collaboration products and the preparation of a demonstration version of the integrated products for evaluation purposes.
Both the Base Agreement and the Statement of Work are filed with this Form 8-K as exhibits.
This Current Report on Form 8-K/A amends the exhibits attached to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 18, 2004. In the original Current Report, the Base Agreement and Statement of Work were listed in the Exhibit Index as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, but were inadvertently filed in reverse order as Exhibits 10.2 and 10.1, respectively. In addition, the heading to the Base Agreement was accidentally omitted.
