Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On November 6, 2009, Cavium Networks, Inc. (the Company), MV Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware
corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (Merger Sub I), and Mantra, LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (Merger Sub II and,
together with the Company and Merger Sub I, the Purchasers), entered into an Agreement and Plan
of Merger and Reorganization (the Merger Agreement) with MontaVista Software, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (MontaVista) and with respect to sections 9 and 10.1 of the Merger Agreement, Thomas
Kelly as the MontaVista stockholders agent. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth
in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub I will merge with and into MontaVista and then MontaVista, as
the surviving corporation, will be merged with and into Merger Sub II, with Merger Sub II being the
ultimate surviving entity and continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company will pay approximately $50.0 million in total
consideration, subject to certain purchase price adjustments. A mix of cash and shares of the
Companys common stock, which collectively have an aggregate value of approximately $44.0 million,
will be issued in exchange for all outstanding securities held by MontaVista securityholders. In
connection with the termination of MontaVistas 2006 Retention Compensation Plan (the Plan),
approximately $6.0 million of the total consideration, consisting of a mix of cash and either (i)
shares of the Companys common stock or (ii) Company restricted stock units, will be issued to Plan
participants.
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company has also agreed to prepare and file
with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement on Form S-3 relating to the shares of Common Stock issuable as part of
the total consideration, pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement attached as an
exhibit to the Merger Agreement.
The transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement is expected to be completed in December 2009,
subject to customary closing conditions. In connection with the closing, certain employees of
MontaVista will be offered employment with the Company and others
will continue to be employed by MontaVistas foreign offices (the Continuing Employees). As set forth
in the Merger Agreement, the Company has agreed to offer such Continuing
Employees a combination of Company restricted stock units and stock options with an
aggregate value of approximately $5.0 million under the Companys 2007 Equity Incentive Plan.
The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement. A copy of
the Merger Agreement is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this report and incorporated herein by reference.
The Merger Agreement has been included to provide investors and security holders with information
regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company.
The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Merger Agreement were made only for
purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to
such agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including
being qualified by confidential disclosures exchanged between the parties in connection with the
execution of the Merger Agreement. The representations and warranties may have been made for the
purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the agreement instead of
establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to
the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Investors are not
third-party beneficiaries under the Merger Agreement and should not rely on the representations,
warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of
facts or condition of the Company, Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II, MontaVista or any of their
respective subsidiaries or affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the
representations and warranties may change after the date of the Merger Agreement, which subsequent
information may or may not be fully reflected in the Companys public disclosures.
On November 10, 2009, the Company issued a press release announcing the signing of the Merger
Agreement. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
