ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.
- ------- ------------------------------------
On January 12, 1998, Parametric Technology Corporation ("Parametric")
completed its acquisition of Computervision Corporation ("Computervision"). The
acquisition was structured as a merger (the "Merger") of a wholly owned
subsidiary of Parametric with and into Computervision pursuant to an Agreement
and Plan of Reorganization (the "Merger Agreement") dated as of November 3,
1997. The Merger was a tax-free reorganization and is being accounted for as a
pooling of interests.
As consideration for the Merger, the stockholders of Computervision
received 0.0866 share of common stock, $.01 par value, of Parametric
("Parametric Common Stock") in exchange for each of their shares of common
stock, $.01 par value, of Computervision. Cash is payable in lieu of any
fractional shares of Parametric Common Stock otherwise issuable in the Merger
for a price equal to the fraction times $46.7627. Outstanding employee and
director options to purchase shares of Computervision Common Stock were
automatically converted into Parametric options at the same exchange ratio.
The number of shares of Parametric Common Stock delivered as the
merger consideration was determined through arms-length negotiation between the
parties. There was no material relationship between Computervision or its
stockholders and Parametric or any of its affiliates, directors or officers, or
any associate of a Parametric director or officer.
The assets acquired in the Merger were used by Computervision in the
business of developing, producing and marketing software and providing support
services that are designed to aid manufacturing companies in enhancing their
product development and manufacturing processes. Parametric intends that
Computervision, as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parametric, will operate in the
same business.
