SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20549 __________ FORM 8-K CURRENT REPORT PURSUANT TO SECTION 13 OR 15(d) of the SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 Date of earliest event reported: August 30, 2000 ANSYS, Inc. (Exact name of registrant as specified in charter) Delaware 0-20853 04-3219960 (State or other jurisdiction (Commission (IRS employer of incorporation) file number) identification no.) 275 Technology Drive, Canonsburg, Pennsylvania 15317 (Address of principal executive offices) (Zip code) Registrant's telephone number, including area code: (724) 726-3304 Page 1 of 64 Pages Exhibit Index appears on Page 5 Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets. On August 30, 2000, ANSYS, Inc. and GenesisOne Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of ANSYS, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Pacific Marketing and Consulting, Inc., a California corporation ("PMAC"), Mr. Armin Wulf, Mr. Reimund Steberl and the holders of the outstanding shares of capital stock of PMAC. The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement were consummated on August 31, 2000 with the merger of PMAC with and into GenesisOne. In the merger, each share of common stock, no par value, of PMAC outstanding at the time of the Merger ceased to be outstanding and each such share was converted into the right to receive the initial merger consideration provided for under the Merger Agreement. Holders of PMAC's Class A voting and Class B non-voting common stock received initial merger consideration consisting of an aggregate of 618,992 shares of ANSYS common stock, valued for purposes of such issuance at $10.01563 per share, and cash in an aggregate amount of $5,832,531.24. Holders of PMAC's Class C non-voting common stock received initial merger consideration aggregating $367,289.92 solely in cash. Of such initial stock consideration, an aggregate of 123,795 shares of ANSYS common stock were delivered into escrow, to be released on August 31, 2001 or, if later, upon the resolution of any outstanding indemnification claims secured by such shares. In addition, $3,000,000 of the initial aggregate cash consideration was delivered into escrow, to be released during the first quarter of 2001 upon and subject to the determination of certain post-closing adjustments and claims. The Merger Agreement also provides for certain additional future payments if the surviving corporation achieves certain performance criteria. Such additional contingent consideration will be paid to the former holders of PMAC Class A and Class B common stock 48.4737% in cash and 51.5263% in shares of ANSYS common stock, valued for such purposes at the average closing price for the twenty consecutive trading days preceding the date of such payment. The total number of shares of ANSYS common stock that will be issued under the Merger Agreement therefore will depend on the future value of ANSYS common stock. The total amount of funds required to pay the initial aggregate cash consideration was $6,199,821.16, which was obtained from the working capital of ANSYS. The aggregate merger consideration was determined on the basis of arms' length negotiations between representatives of ANSYS and PMAC. The Merger Agreement and the press release announcing its execution are filed as exhibits to this Current Report on Form 8-K, are incorporated by reference into the text of this Item 2, and qualify the text of this Item 2 in its entirety. Item 7. Financial Statements and Exhibits. (a) Financial statements of businesses acquired. (b) Pro forma financial information.
