Product Development
 
     In fiscal 2010, Unify focused our development efforts on the archive portfolio, the initial release of Q, a new version of Team Developer, the Composer products, and SQLBase products. During fiscal 2010, we developed and released a new product, Q, as well as minor versions of the Central Archive, SQLBase, Team Developer, VISION and ACCELL/SQL. Significant enhancements and improvements were made to Composer CipherSoft and Composer Lotus Notes. Unify’s product development expenses for fiscal 2010, 2009 and 2008, were $6.5 million, $2.9 million and $3.5 million, respectively. The significant increase in expenses was the result of the AXS-One acquisition in June 2009. The Daegis development efforts is focused exclusively on the DocHunter software platform, the Company’s hosted solution for eDiscovery.
 
     Most of Unify’s current software products have been developed internally; however, we have licensed certain software components from third parties and we may do so again in the future. We are committed to delivering products that meet customer and market needs today and into the future.
 
Intellectual Property
 
     Unify relies on a combination of copyright, trademark and trade-secret laws, non-disclosure agreements and other methods to protect our proprietary technology. Despite efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our products or to obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. Policing unauthorized use of our products is difficult, and while we are unable to determine the extent to which piracy of our software products exists, software piracy can be expected to be a persistent problem. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries in which we sell products do not protect our proprietary rights as fully as do the laws of the United States. There can be no assurance that our means of protecting our proprietary rights in the United States or abroad will be adequate or that competition will not independently develop similar technology.
 
     Although there are no pending lawsuits against Unify regarding infringement of any existing patents or other intellectual property rights and we have not received any notices that we are infringing or allegedly infringing the intellectual property rights of others, there can be no assurance that infringement claims will not be asserted by third parties in the future. If any such claims are asserted, there can be no assurance that we will be able to defend such claim or obtain licenses on reasonable terms. Our involvement in any patent dispute or any other intellectual property dispute or action to protect trade secrets and know-how may have an adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition. Adverse determinations in any litigation may subject us to significant liabilities to third parties, require us to seek licenses from third parties, and prevent us from developing and selling its products. Any of these situations could have an adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.
 
     Unify is dependent on third-party suppliers for certain software which is embedded in some of our products. Although we believe that the functionality provided by software which is licensed from third parties is obtainable from multiple sources, or could be developed by us if any such third-party licenses were terminated, or not renewed, or if these third parties fail to develop new products in a timely manner, we could be required to develop an alternative approach to developing products which could require payment of additional fees to third parties or internal development costs and delays that might not be successful in providing the same level of functionality. Such delays, increased costs, or reduced functionality could adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition.
 
Competition
 
     The market for Unify’s software is intensely competitive, subject to rapid change and significantly affected by new product introductions and other activities of market participants. Our applications and software products compete in the market with dozens of other companies that provide application modernization solutions, application development products, and databases. These competitors include EMC, Epiq, FTI, IBM, Kroll Ontrack, Microsoft, Oracle and Symantec. All of these competitors are large, well capitalized companies with significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources as well as greater name recognition and larger customer bases. The Unify solutions are competitive from a technical capability, rich interface and ease of use, service and pricing perspectives, but our competitors have greater brand recognition and perceived financial strength.

     The Company generally derives sales from new eDiscovery & archiving projects, application modernization initiatives, and additional deployment of existing applications and version upgrades. As a result, the key competitive factor is generally the decision by a customer as to whether or not to begin a new project initiative or upgrade or keep things status quo. Organizations choose Unify software for a variety of factors including the ability to deliver market leading archiving/eDiscovery applications, migrate applications, build and deploy applications quickly, the high level of customer service and support Unify provides and our price point, which gives customers a cost-effective solution to their business problem. Organizations will typically choose a competitor because of their perceived financial strength.
 
     As new products and technologies are introduced, increased competition could result in fewer customer orders, reduced prices and reduced gross margins, any one of which could adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition. In addition, current and potential competitors may make strategic acquisitions or establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties, thereby increasing the ability of their products to address the needs of our prospective customers. Accordingly, it is possible that new competitors or alliances among current and new competitors may emerge and gain significant market share. Such competition could adversely affect our ability to sell additional licenses and maintenance and support renewals on favorable terms.
 
Employees
 
      As of September 7, 2010, we had a total of 206 employees, including 48 in product development, 31 in sales and marketing, 90 in customer support, consulting, and eDiscovery, and 37 in finance, operations and general administration. Of these employees, 176 were located in the United States and 30 were located in other countries.
 
     Unify’s success depends, in large part, on its ability to attract and retain qualified employees, particularly senior management, engineering and direct sales. The competition for such employees is intense. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in attracting or retaining key employees. Any failure we have in attracting and retaining qualified senior management, engineering, direct sales, and support personnel could adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition. None of our employees are represented by a collective bargaining agreement, nor have we experienced any work stoppage. We consider our relations with our employees to be good.
 
RISK FACTORS
 
     In evaluating the Company’s business, readers should carefully consider the business risks discussed in this section in addition to the other information presented in this registration statement and in our other filings with the Commission.
 
Deterioration in general economic conditions has caused and could cause additional decreases or delays in spending by customers and could harm our ability to generate license and maintenance revenues and our results of operations.
 
     The state of the global economy and availability of capital has and could further impact the spending patterns of existing and potential future customers. Any reduction in spending by, or loss of, existing or potential future customers would cause revenues to decline. Further, it may be difficult to adjust expenses and capital expenditures quickly enough to compensate for any unexpected revenue shortfall.
 
     Software license and maintenance purchases tend to be cyclical, reflecting overall economic conditions and budgeting and buying patterns. Since most revenues are derived from sales of software licenses, the current deterioration in economic conditions has caused and could cause additional decreases in or delays in software spending and is likely to reduce software license revenues and negatively impact our short-term ability to grow revenues. Further, any decreased collectability of accounts receivable or early termination of agreements due to the current deterioration in economic conditions could negatively impact our results of operations.
 
The exercise price of certain warrants may be substantially below the market price of our stock at the time of exercise which could potentially have a negative impact on our stock price.

     In conjunction with the acquisition of Gupta Technologies LLC in November 2006, we issued 670,000 warrants. As of April 30, 2010, there were 435,994 warrants issued as part of our debt financing that were outstanding which are exercisable at fixed exercise prices ranging from $1.35 per share to $1.90 per share. Subject to certain exceptions, these exercise prices are subject to downward adjustment in the event we issue additional shares of common stock at prices below the then-current exercise price. Exercise of the warrants is only likely to occur at such time as the exercise price is lower than the current market price for our stock. Issuance of common stock at a price below our current market price would have a dilutive effect on current stockholders and could potentially have a negative impact on our stock price.
 
     In conjunction with the acquisition of Daegis in June 2010, we obtained debt financing and issued 718,860 warrants which are exercisable at $3.30 per share. Subject to certain exceptions, these exercise prices are subject to downward adjustment in the event we issue additional shares of common stock at prices below the then-current exercise price. Exercise of the warrants is only likely to occur at such time as the exercise price is lower than the current market price for our stock. Issuance of common stock at a price below our current market price would have a dilutive effect on current stockholders and could potentially have a negative impact on our stock price.
 
If we default on any secured loan, all or a portion of our assets could be subject to forfeiture.
 
     To finance the cash portion of the acquisition of Daegis and provide working capital, the Company entered into a new Revolving Credit & Term Loan Agreement with Hercules Technology on June 29, 2010 (the “Hercules Loan Agreement”). Under the Hercules Loan Agreement, we granted to Hercules a first priority security interest in substantially all of our assets. If we default on the Hercules Loan Agreement and are unable to cure the default pursuant to the terms of the agreement, our lender could take possession of any or all assets in which it holds a security interest, including intellectual property, and dispose of those assets to the extent necessary to pay off the debts, which could seriously harm our business. Furthermore, we may enter into other secured credit or loan agreements in the future. The proceeds from the loan provided under the Hercules Loan Agreement were used to pay off the loans provided under the ComVest Loan Agreement and upon such pay-off ComVest’s security interest was released.
 
Acquisitions may have an adverse effect on our business.
 
     We expect to continue making acquisitions as part of our long-term business strategy. These transactions involve significant challenges and risks including that the transaction does not advance our business strategy, that we do not realize a satisfactory return on our investment, or that we experience difficulty in the integration of new employees, business systems, and technology, or diversion of management’s attention from our other businesses. These events could harm our operating results or financial condition.
 
We are subject to intense competition.
 
     We have experienced and expect to continue to experience intense competition from current and future competitors including EMC, Epiq, FTI, IBM, Kroll Ontrack, Microsoft, Oracle, and Symantec. Often, these competitors have significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources than Unify, in addition to having greater name recognition and more extensive customer bases. As a result, our competitors may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements or devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of their products than we can.
 
     In addition, current and potential competitors may make strategic acquisitions or establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties, thereby increasing the ability of their products to address the needs of our prospective customers. Accordingly, it is possible that new competitors or alliances among current and new competitors may emerge and rapidly gain significant market share. Such competition could adversely affect our ability to sell additional licenses and maintenance and support renewals on terms favorable to us. Further, competitive pressures could require us to reduce the price of our products and related services, which could adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully against current and future competition, and the failure to do so would have an adverse effect upon our business, operating results and financial condition.

The markets in which we compete are subject to rapid technological change.
 
     The markets in which we compete are characterized by rapid technological change, frequent introductions of new and enhanced products, changes in customer demands and evolving industry standards. The introduction of products embodying new technologies and the emergence of new industry standards can render existing products obsolete and unmarketable.
 
     Our future success will depend in part upon our ability to address the increasingly sophisticated needs of customers by developing new product functionality and enhancements that keep pace with technological developments, emerging industry standards and customer requirements.
 
     There can be no assurance that our products will continue to be perceived by our customers as technologically advantageous or that we will not experience difficulties that delay or prevent the sale of enhancements to existing products that meet with a significant degree of market acceptance. If the release dates of any future product enhancements, or new products are delayed, or if when released, they fail to achieve market acceptance, our business, operating results and financial condition would be adversely affected.
 
We are dependent on indirect sales channels.
 
     A significant portion of our database and development tool revenues are derived from indirect sales channels, including ISVs, VARs and distributors. ISVs, VARs and distributors accounted for approximately 45%, 61% and 64% of our software license revenues for fiscal 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Our success therefore depends in part upon the performance of our indirect sales channels, over which we have limited influence. Our ability to achieve significant revenue growth in the future depends in part on maintaining and expanding our indirect sales channels worldwide. The loss of any major partners, either to competitive products offered by other companies or to products developed internally by those partners, or the failure to attract effective new partners, could have an adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition.
 
There are numerous risks associated with our international operations and sales.
 
     Revenues derived from our international customers accounted for 50%, 68% and 78% of our total revenues, with the remainder from North America, in fiscal 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. If the revenues generated by our international operations are not adequate to offset the expense of maintaining such operations, our overall business, operating results and financial condition will be adversely affected. There can be no assurance that we will continue to be able to successfully market, sell and deliver our products in these markets. Although we have had international operations for a number of years, there are certain unique business challenges and risks inherent in doing business outside of North America, and such challenges and risks can vary from region to region. These include unexpected changes in regulatory requirements; export restrictions, tariffs and other trade barriers; difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations; longer payment cycles; problems in collecting accounts receivable; political instability; fluctuations in currency exchange rates; seasonal reductions in business activity during the summer months in Europe and other parts of the world; unfamiliar or unusual business practices; and potentially adverse tax consequences, any of which could adversely impact the success of our international operations. There can be no assurance that one or more of these factors will not have an adverse effect on our future international operations and, consequently, on our business, operating results and financial condition. In addition, the Company’s subsidiaries and distributors in Europe and Asia Pacific operate in local currencies. If the value of the U.S. dollar increases relative to foreign currencies, our business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected.
 
Our stock price may be subject to volatility.
 
     Unify’s common stock price has been and is likely to continue to be subject to significant volatility. A variety of factors could cause the price of the common stock to fluctuate, perhaps substantially, including: announcements of developments related to our business; fluctuations in the operating results and order levels of Unify or its competitors; general conditions in the computer industry or the worldwide economy; announcements of technological innovations; new products or product enhancements from us or our competitors; changes in financial estimates by securities analysts; developments in patent, copyright or other intellectual property rights; and developments in our relationships with our customers, distributors and suppliers; legal proceedings brought against the Company or its officers; and significant changes in our senior management team. In addition, in recent years the stock market in general, and the market for shares of equity securities of many high technology companies in particular, have experienced extreme price fluctuations which have often been unrelated to the operating performance of those companies. Such fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
 
9
 

 

     Beginning on August 25, 2008, the Company’s stock started trading on the NASDAQ. Prior to being traded on the NASDAQ, the Company’s stock was traded over-the-counter on the “bulletin board”. Even though our stock is now traded on the NASDAQ, we do not receive any analyst coverage, our stock is thinly traded and our stock is considered to be micro-cap stock. Our stock is therefore subject to greater price volatility than larger companies whose stock trades more actively.
 
Our quarterly operating results may be subject to fluctuations and seasonal variability.
 
     Unify’s quarterly operating results have varied significantly in the past and we expect that they could vary significantly in the future. Such variations could result from the following factors: the size and timing of significant orders and their fulfillment; demand for our products; the quantity, timing and significance of our product enhancements and new product announcements or those of our competitors; our ability to attract and retain key employees; seasonality; changes in our pricing or our competitors’; realignments of our organizational structure; changes in the level of our operating expenses; incurrence of extraordinary operating expenses, changes in our sales incentive plans; budgeting cycles of our customers; customer order deferrals in anticipation of enhancements or new products offered by us or our competitors; product life cycles; product defects and other product quality problems; currency fluctuations; and general domestic and international economic and political conditions.
 
     Due to the foregoing factors, quarterly revenues and operating results may vary on a quarterly basis. Revenues and quarterly results may vary because software technology is rapidly evolving, and our sales cycle, from initial evaluation to purchase and the providing of maintenance services, can be lengthy and vary substantially from customer to customer. Because we normally deliver products within a short time of receiving an order, we typically do not have a backlog of orders. As a result, to achieve our quarterly revenue objectives, we are dependent upon obtaining orders in any given quarter for shipment in that quarter. Furthermore, because many customers place orders toward the end of a fiscal quarter, we generally recognize a substantial portion of our software license revenues at the end of a quarter. Our expense levels largely reflect our expectations for future revenue and are therefore somewhat fixed in the short term.
 
     We expect that our operating results will continue to be affected by the continually challenging IT economic environment as well as by seasonal trends. In particular, we anticipate relatively weaker demand in the fiscal quarters ending July 31 and October 31 as a result of reduced business activity in Europe during the summer months.
 
Our products are subject to lengthy sales cycles.
 
     Our archiving/eDiscovery solutions are used to implement governance and matter driven requirements and involve legal, IT and risk management departments. Our application modernization solutions are used to implement comprehensive solutions including complete technology platform transitions and new applications. The delivery of our application modernization solutions generally involves a four to ten week implementation time and a significant commitment of management attention and resources by prospective customers. Accordingly, our sales cycle is subject to delays associated with the long approval process that typically accompanies significant initiatives or capital expenditures. Our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected if customers reduce or delay orders. There can be no assurance that we will not continue to experience these and additional delays in the future. Such delays may contribute to significant fluctuations of quarterly operating results in the future and may adversely affect those results.

Our software products could contain defects and could be subject to potential release delays.
 
     Software products frequently contain errors or defects, especially when first introduced or when new versions or enhancements are released. There can be no assurance that, despite testing by us and current and potential customers, defects and errors will not be found in current versions, new versions or enhancements after commencement of commercial shipments, resulting in loss of revenues, delay in market acceptance, or unexpected re-programming costs, which could have an adverse effect upon our business, operating results and financial condition. Additionally, if the release dates of any future Unify product line additions or enhancements are delayed or if, when released, they fail to achieve market acceptance, our business, operating results, financial condition and cash flows would be adversely affected.
 
Our license agreements may not protect us from product liability claims.
 
     The license agreements we have with our customers typically contain provisions designed to limit our exposure to potential product liability claims. It is possible, however, that the limitation of liability provisions contained in these license agreements may not be effective as a result of existing or future federal, state or local laws or ordinances or unfavorable judicial decisions. The sale and support of current and future products may involve the risk of such claims, any of which are likely to be substantial in light of the use of these products in the development of core business applications. A successful product liability claim brought against the Company could have an adverse effect upon our business, operating results, and financial condition.
 
We rely upon technology from certain third-party suppliers.
 
     Unify is dependent on third-party suppliers for software which is embedded in some of its products. We believe that the functionality provided by software which is licensed from third parties is obtainable from multiple sources or could be developed by the Company. However, if any such third-party licenses were terminated, or not renewed, or if these third parties fail to develop new products in a timely manner, we could be required to develop an alternative approach to developing such products, which could require payment of additional fees to third parties or internal development costs and delays that might not be successful in providing the same level of functionality. Such delays, increased costs or reduced functionality could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.
 
We may be subject to violations of our intellectual property rights.
 
     Unify relies on a combination of copyright, trademark and trade secret laws, non-disclosure agreements and other intellectual property protection methods to protect its proprietary technology. Despite our efforts to protect proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our products or obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. Policing unauthorized use of our products is difficult, and while we are unable to determine the extent to which piracy of our technology exists, piracy can be expected to be a persistent problem. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect our proprietary rights as fully as do the laws of the United States. There can be no assurance that our means of protecting our proprietary rights will be adequate and, to the extent such rights are not adequate, other companies could independently develop similar products using similar technology.
 
     Although there are no pending lawsuits against us regarding infringement of any existing patents or other intellectual property rights, and we have received no notices that we are infringing or allegedly infringing the intellectual property rights of others, there can be no assurance that such infringement claims will not be asserted by third parties in the future. If any such claims are asserted, there can be no assurance that we will be able to defend such claim or if necessary obtain licenses on reasonable terms. Our involvement in any patent dispute or other intellectual property dispute or action to protect trade secrets and know-how may have an adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition. Adverse determinations in any litigation may subject us to significant liabilities to third parties, require that we seek licenses from third parties and prevent us from developing and selling our products. Any of these situations could have an adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition.
 
11
 

 

Our success is dependent upon the retention of key personnel and we may be unable to retain key employees.
 
     Our future performance depends on the continued service of key technical, sales and senior management personnel. With the exception of Unify’s President and Chief Executive Officer and Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, there are no other Unify technical, sales, executive or senior management personnel bound by an employment agreement. The loss of the services of one or more of our officers or other key employees could seriously harm our business, operating results and financial condition. Future success also depends on our continuing ability to attract and retain highly qualified technical, sales and managerial personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense, and we may fail to retain our key technical, sales and managerial employees, or attract, assimilate or retain other highly qualified technical, sales and managerial personnel in the future.
 
Rapid growth may significantly strain our resources.
 
     If we are able to achieve rapid and successful market acceptance of our current and future products, we may undergo a period of rapid growth. This expansion may significantly strain management, financial resources, customer support, operational and other resources. To accommodate this anticipated growth, we are continuing to implement a variety of new and upgraded operating and financial systems, procedures and controls, including the improvement of our internal management systems. There can be no assurance that such efforts can be accomplished successfully. Any failure to expand these areas in an efficient manner could have an adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition. Moreover, there can be no assurance that our systems, procedures and controls will be adequate to support our future operations.
 
Our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting may not be effective to detect all errors or to detect and deter wrongdoing, fraud or improper activities in all instances.
 
     While we believe we currently have adequate internal control over financial reporting, our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and fraud. In designing our control systems, management recognizes that any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Further the design of a control system must reflect the necessity of considering the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Because of inherent limitations in any control system, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of wrongdoing, if any, that may affect our operations, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake and that controls may be circumvented by individual acts by some person, by collusion of two or more people or by management’s override of the control. The design of any control system also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of a potential future event, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Because of the inherent limitations in cost-effective control systems, misstatements due to error or wrongdoing may occur and not be detected. Over time, it is also possible that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions that could not be, or were not, anticipated at inception or review of the control systems. Any breakdown in our control systems, whether or not foreseeable by management, could cause investors to lose confidence in the accuracy of our financial reporting and may have an adverse impact on our business and on the market price for Unify’s common stock.

Overview
 
     Unify (the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is a global provider of archiving/eDiscovery, application development, data management, and migration software solutions. Our archiving solutions meet an organization’s requirement to archive, discover and preserve electronically stored information for eDiscovery, regulatory compliance, global email access and storage savings. Our software helps companies to maximize value and reduce cost in the development, deployment, management and retention of business applications, data and electronically stored information.
 
     The Company sells and markets application development and database software and services, integrated content archiving solutions and modernization solutions through three segments. The segments are the Database and Development Products (“DDP”), Integrated Content Archiving Solutions and our Modernization and Migration Solutions.

     On June 29, 2010, the Company purchased Strategic Office Solutions, Inc. dba Daegis for approximately $37.5 million. Payment was made in the form of $24.0 million in cash, $7.3 million in equity, and $6.2 million in convertible notes.
 
     On June 30, 2009, the Company purchased AXS-One Inc. for approximately 3.1 million shares of common stock.
 
     On January 30, 2009, the Company purchased CipherSoft Inc. (“CipherSoft”), headquartered in Calgary, Canada, for approximately $628,000 in cash plus the assumption of debt of $1,032,000 and future potential royalty payments to be paid over a four year period following the acquisition.
 
     On May 22, 2007, the Company purchased privately held Active Data Corporation (“ADC”) for approximately $420,000 plus potential earn-out payments over a two year period following the acquisition.
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
     The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The areas that require significant judgment are as follows.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
     The Company generates revenue from software license sales and related services, including maintenance and support, and consulting services. Additionally, the Company generates revenue from its migration solutions products. The Company licenses its products to end-user customers, independent software vendors (“ISVs”), international distributors and value-added resellers (“VARs”). The Company’s products are generally sold with a perpetual license. The Company’s contracts with ISVs, VARs and international distributors do not include special considerations such as rights of return, stock rotation, price protection or special acceptance. The Company exercises judgment in connection with the determination of the amount of revenue to be recognized in each accounting period. The nature of each contractual arrangement determines how revenues and related costs are recognized.
 
     For software license arrangements that do not require significant modification or customization of the underlying software, revenue is recognized when the software product or service has been shipped or electronically delivered, the license fees are fixed and determinable, uncertainties regarding customer acceptance are resolved, collectability is probable and persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists.
 
     For fixed price arrangements that require significant modification or customization of software, the Company uses the percentage-of-completion method for revenue recognition. Under the percentage-of-completion method, progress towards completion is measured by labor hours.
 
     The Company considers a signed non-cancelable license agreement, a customer purchase order, a customer purchase requisition, or a sales quotation signed by an authorized purchaser of the customer to be persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists such that revenue can be recognized.
 
     The Company’s customer contracts include multi-element arrangements that include a delivered element (a software license) and undelivered elements (such as maintenance and support and/or consulting). The value allocated to the undelivered elements is unbundled from the delivered element based on vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE) of the fair value of the maintenance and support and/or consulting, regardless of any separate prices stated within the contract. VSOE of fair value is defined as: (i) the price charged when the same element is sold separately, or (ii) if the element has not yet been sold separately, the price for the element established by management having the relevant authority when it is probable that the price will not change before the introduction of the element into the marketplace. The Company then allocates the remaining balance to the delivered element (a software license) regardless of any separate prices stated within the contract using the residual method as the fair value of all undelivered elements is determinable.
 
14
 

 

     We defer revenue for any undelivered elements, and recognize revenue for delivered elements only when the fair values of undelivered elements are known, uncertainties regarding customer acceptance are resolved, and there are no customer-negotiated refund or return rights affecting the revenue recognized for delivered elements. If we cannot objectively determine the fair value of any undelivered element included in bundled software and service arrangements, we defer revenue until all elements are delivered and services have been performed, or until fair value can objectively be determined for any remaining undelivered elements.
 
     An assessment of the ability of the Company’s customers to pay is another consideration that affects revenue recognition. In some cases, the Company sells to undercapitalized customers. In those circumstances, revenue recognition is deferred until cash is received, the customer has established a history of making timely payments or the customer’s financial condition has improved. Furthermore, once revenue has been recognized, the Company evaluates the related accounts receivable balance at each period end for amounts that we believe may no longer be collectible. This evaluation is largely done based on a review of the financial condition via credit agencies and historical experience with the customer. Any deterioration in credit worthiness of a customer may impact the Company’s evaluation of accounts receivable in any given period.
 
     Revenue from support and maintenance activities, which consist of fees for ongoing support and unspecified product updates, are recognized ratably over the term of the maintenance contract, typically one year, and the associated costs are expensed as incurred. Consulting service arrangements are performed on a “best efforts” basis and may be billed under time-and-materials or fixed price arrangements. Revenues and expenses relating to providing consulting services are generally recognized as the services are performed.
 
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
 
     Goodwill is the excess of cost of an acquired entity over the amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Goodwill is not amortized. Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis as of April 30, and between annual tests if indicators of potential impairment exist, using a fair-value-based approach. No impairment of goodwill has been identified during any of the periods presented. Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated period of benefit. We evaluate the recoverability of intangible assets periodically and take into account events or circumstances that warrant revised estimates of useful lives or that indicate that impairment exists. All of our intangible assets are subject to amortization. No impairments of intangible assets have been identified during any of the periods presented.
 
Deferred Tax Asset Valuation Allowance
 
     Deferred taxes are recorded for the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities and net operating loss carryforwards. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce deferred tax assets to an amount whose realization is more likely than not. U.S. income taxes are not provided on the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries as they are considered to be permanently reinvested.
 
     As of April 30, 2010, we had approximately $22.4 million of deferred tax assets related principally to net operating loss and capital loss carryforwards, reserves and other accruals, and various tax credits. The Company’s ability to utilize net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to certain limitations in the event of a change in ownership. In addition, the ability of the Company to ultimately realize its deferred tax assets will be contingent upon the Company achieving taxable income. There is no assurance that this will occur in amounts sufficient to utilize the deferred tax assets. Accordingly, a valuation allowance has been recorded to offset these deferred tax assets. Should we determine that we would be able to realize the deferred tax assets in the future in excess of the recorded amount, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would increase income in the period such determination was made.

Account Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
 
     We record trade accounts receivable at the invoiced amount and they do not bear interest. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. We make these estimates based on an analysis of accounts receivable using available information on our customers’ financial status and payment histories as well as the age of the account receivable. Historically, bad debt losses have not differed materially from our estimates.
 
Accounting for Stock-based Compensation
 
     For our share-based payment awards, we make estimates and assumptions to determine the underlying value of stock options, including volatility, expected life and forfeiture rates. Additionally, for awards which are performance-based, we make estimates as to the probability of the underlying performance being achieved. Changes to these estimates and assumptions may have a significant impact on the value and timing of stock-based compensation expense recognized, which could have a material impact on our financial statements.

Total Revenues
 
     The Company generates revenue from software license sales and related services, including maintenance, support and consulting services. We license our software through our direct sales force in the United States and Europe, and through indirect channels comprised of distributors, ISVs, VARs, and other partners worldwide. Revenues from our distributor, ISV and VAR indirect channels accounted for approximately 45%, 61%, and 64% of our software license revenues for fiscal 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. International revenues include all our software license and service revenues from customers located outside North America. International revenues accounted for 50%, 68%, and 78% of total revenues in fiscal years 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

     Total revenues in fiscal 2010 were $28.6 million, an increase of $8.0 million or 39% from fiscal 2009 revenues of $20.6 million. Total software license revenues in fiscal 2010 were $7.4 million, an increase of $1.0 million or 15% from fiscal 2009 software license revenues of $6.4 million. Total services revenues were $15.8 million in fiscal 2010, an increase of $4.1 million or 35% from fiscal 2009 service revenues of $11.7 million. The increase in software license revenues and services revenues was primarily due to the acquisition of AXS-One, Inc. in 2010. Total migration solutions revenue in fiscal 2010 was $5.4 million compared to $2.5 million in fiscal 2009. The increase in migration solutions revenue was primarily related to a multi-million dollar database migration project for a governmental entity. This increase offset the decline in total revenues from the tools and database business that was impacted by the deterioration in the worldwide economic conditions during fiscal 2010. Total revenues in fiscal 2009 were $20.6 million, an increase of $0.8 million or 4% from fiscal 2008 revenues of $19.8 million. Total software license revenues in fiscal 2009 were $6.4 million, a decrease of $2.1 million or 24% from fiscal 2008 software revenue of $8.5 million due to the deterioration of in the worldwide economic conditions in fiscal 2009, the decline of the Euro and an order of approximately $1 million received during fiscal 2008 from our Russian distributor that did not reoccur in fiscal 2009. Total service revenues of $11.7 million in fiscal 2009 increased by $0.7 million or 6% from fiscal 2008. Total migration solutions revenue in fiscal 2009 was $2.5 million compared to $0.3 million in fiscal 2008. The increase in migration solutions revenue was due to increases in sales from our Composer Notes, Composer Sabertooth, and Composer CipherSoft.
 
     For fiscal 2010 and 2009, total revenues from the United States were 50% and 32% of total revenues, respectively. Total revenue from the United States in absolute dollars was $14.3 million for fiscal 2010 and $6.7 million for fiscal 2009. The increase is primarily due to the recognition of revenue on two large US based projects. Additionally, AXS-One has historically had a high percentage of total revenue from the United States. Total revenue from all other countries was $14.3 million for fiscal 2010 and $13.9 million for fiscal 2009. On a percentage basis, revenue from other countries was 50% for fiscal 2010 and 68% for fiscal 2009.
 
Cost of Revenues
 
Cost of Software Licenses. Cost of software licenses consists primarily of royalty payments and the amortization of purchased technology from third parties that is amortized ratably over the technology’s expected useful life. Cost of software licenses was $0.3 million for fiscal 2010, $0.2 million for fiscal 2009 and $0.2 for fiscal 2008.
 
Cost of Services. Cost of services consists primarily of employee, facilities and travel costs incurred in providing customer support under software maintenance contracts and consulting and implementation services. Total cost of services was $3.2 million for fiscal 2010, $1.0 million for fiscal 2009 and $1.2 million for fiscal 2008. Our cost of services as a percent of services revenues was 20% in fiscal 2010, 9% in fiscal 2009 and 11% in 2008. The increase in the percentage of cost of service expenses to services revenue in fiscal 2010 versus fiscal 2009 was due primarily to the acquisition of AXS-One which has a higher proportion of costs of services than most of the Company’s other products.
 
Cost of Migration Solutions. Cost of migration solutions consists primarily of both expenses associated with employees involved in migration projects and also expenses related to third party assistance. Cost of migration solutions was $2.5 million in fiscal 2010, $1.0 million in fiscal 2009, and $0.1 million in fiscal 2008. The increase in cost of migration solutions in fiscal 2010 over fiscal 2009 is primarily related to a multi-million dollar database migration project for a governmental entity.
 
Operating Expenses
 
Product Development. Product development expenses consist primarily of employee and facilities costs incurred in the development and testing of new products and in the porting of new and existing products to additional hardware platforms and operating systems. Product development costs in fiscal 2010 were $6.5 million compared to $2.9 million in fiscal 2009 and $3.5 million in fiscal 2008. The increase in product development costs in fiscal 2010 compared to fiscal 2009 was primarily the result of expenses related to additional headcount resulting from our acquisition of CipherSoft in January 2009 and our acquisition of AXS-One in June 2009.
 
17
 

 

Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses consist primarily of salaries and benefits, marketing programs, travel expenses, professional services, facilities expenses and bad debt expense. SG&A expenses were $17.7 million in fiscal 2010, $12.5 million for 2009 and $12.0 million for 2008. The increase in SG&A costs in fiscal 2010 was primarily the result of expenses related to our acquisition of CipherSoft in January 2009 and our acquisition of AXS-One in June 2009. During fiscal 2010, the Company incurred approximately $1.4 million related to the transaction costs for the AXS-One acquisition and salary continuation and severance costs for AXS-One staff that were eliminated post acquisition. As a percentage of total revenue, SG&A expenses were 62% in fiscal 2010, 61% in fiscal 2009 and 61% in fiscal 2008. The major components of SG&A for fiscal 2010 were sales expenses of $8.2 million, marketing expenses of $1.5 million and general and administrative expenses of $7.9 million. The major components of SG&A for fiscal 2009 were sales expenses of $6.5 million, marketing expenses of $0.9 million and general and administrative expenses of $5.1 million. For fiscal 2008, the major components were sales expenses of $5.8 million, marketing expenses of $1.4 million and general and administrative expenses of $4.8 million.
 
Interest Expense. Interest expense is primarily the result of interest from outstanding debt and was $267,000, $194,000 and $900,000 in fiscal 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Fiscal 2010 interest expense consists primarily of interest incurred on notes payable resulting from a debt financing in conjunction with the November 2006 acquisition of Gupta Technologies LLC and the acquisition of CipherSoft Inc., plus the amortization of related debt issuance costs and the amortization of the discount on notes payable.
 
Other Income (Expense). Other income (expense), net consists primarily of the gain on the sale of the other investments in fiscal 2008, the foreign exchange gains and losses and interest earned by the Company on our cash and cash equivalents. Other income (expense), net was ($14,000), ($124,000) and $130,000 in fiscal 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. In September 2007, the Company sold all of its stock in Arango as part of a stock repurchase plan offered by Arango. At the time of the sale, the Company had a carrying value of $175,000 for the Arango stock. Proceeds from the sale of the Arango stock were $264,000 which generated a gain that was included in other income. Additionally, during fiscal 2008, we wrote off our investment in Unify Japan of $39,000 based on our assessment that there was a permanent decline in value for this investment. The write off of Unify Japan was recorded in other expense.
 
Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes. For fiscal 2010, the Company recorded $65,000 in foreign tax benefit and $66,000 for state and federal tax benefit. For fiscal 2009, the Company recorded $27,000 in foreign tax benefit and $206,000 for state or federal tax expense. For fiscal 2008, the Company recorded $89,000 in foreign tax expense and $235,000 for state and federal taxes.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
     At April 30, 2010, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $3.1 million, compared to $6.1 million at April 30, 2009. The Company had net accounts receivable of $6.2 million as of April 30, 2010 and $4.5 million as of April 30, 2009. The increase in accounts receivable and decrease in cash from April 30, 2009 to April 30, 2010 was primarily the result of accounts receivable acquired and payments on obligations related to the June 30, 2009 acquisition of AXS-One.
 
     As of April 30, 2010, the Company has various notes payable outstanding in the amount of $1.0 million of which $1.0 million is current. The notes payable all have an interest rate of 5%. The Company also has a $2.5 million revolving line of credit with an interest rate of prime plus 2.25% which has a maturity date of November 30, 2010. As of April 30, 2010, there is $350,000 outstanding on the revolving line of credit. All outstanding amounts under these notes and the line of credit were repaid in June 2010 from the proceeds of the loan provided under the Hercules Loan Agreement.
 
     To finance the acquisition of Daegis, the Company entered into the Hercules Loan Agreement. The Hercules Loan Agreement consists of a term note and a revolving credit note agreement. The term note is for $24.0 million payable over 5 years with escalating principal payments of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 50% annually. The Company incurs interest at the prevailing LIBOR rate plus 8.25% per annum with a minimum rate of 10.25% (10.25% at the date of closing) plus 2% interest to be paid in kind. Under the terms of the revolver the Company can borrow up to $6.0 million. The amount that can be borrowed under the revolver is based on the amount of eligible accounts receivable outstanding. The Company incurs interest expense on funds borrowed at the prevailing LIBOR rate plus 7.25% per annum with a minimum rate of 9.25% (9.25% at the date of closing).

     We believe that existing cash of $3.1 million as of April 30, 2010, along with forecasted operating cash flows and the credit facilities under the Hercules Loan Agreement, will provide us with sufficient working capital for us to meet our operating plan for fiscal year 2011. Our operating plan assumes normal operations for the Company and the required debt service payments.
 
Operating Cash Flows. In fiscal 2010, we had cash flows used in operations of $1.4 million. This compares to fiscal 2009 and 2008 where cash flows from operations were $3.8 million and $3.4 million, respectively. Cash flows used in operations for fiscal 2010 principally resulted from $1.8 million of net losses, a $1.2 million increase in accounts receivable, a decrease in the valuation allowance from acquisition of $0.2 million, a decrease in accounts payable of $1.8 million, a decrease in accrued compensation of $0.2 million, a decrease in accrued acquisition costs of $0.1 million, a decrease in other accrued liabilities of $2.4 million, and a decrease in other long term liabilities of $0.5 million. Offsetting these amounts was a $2.7 million increase in deferred revenue, a decrease of $0.6 million in prepaid expenses and other current assets, $2.4 million in amortization of intangible assets, $0.2 million in depreciation and $0.6 million in stock based expenses.
 
     In fiscal 2009, we had cash flows from operations of $3.8 million. Cash flows provided by operations for fiscal 2009 principally resulted from $2.3 million of income from operations, a $0.7 million decrease in accounts receivable, a decrease in other long term assets of $0.1 million, an increase in other accrued liabilities of $0.4 million, an increase in accounts payable of $0.1 million, $0.8 million in amortization of intangible assets, $0.2 million in depreciation and $0.5 million in stock based expenses. Offsetting these amounts was a $0.8 million decrease in deferred revenue, a decrease of $0.4 million in accrued compensation and related expenses and an increase of $0.1 million in prepaid expenses and other current assets.
 
     In fiscal 2008, we had cash flows from operations of $3.4 million. Cash flows provided by operations for fiscal 2008 principally resulted from $1.6 million of income from operations, a $0.9 million increase in deferred revenue, a $0.8 million increase in accrued compensation and related expenses, $0.8 million in amortization of intangible assets, $0.2 million for amortization of discount on notes payable, $0.2 million in depreciation and $0.2 million in stock based expenses. Offsetting these amounts was an increase of $0.6 million in accounts receivable, an increase of $0.1 million in other long term assets, a $0.3 million decrease in accounts payable, a decrease of $0.3 million in accrued acquisition costs, and fulfillment of support obligations of $0.3 million.
 
Investing Cash Flows. Cash used in investing activities was $17,000 for fiscal 2010. Cash used in investing activities was $842,000 in fiscal 2009. The use of cash consisted of $542,000 related to the acquisition of CipherSoft Inc., $190,000 related to the purchase of property and equipment and $110,000 related to payments on acquisitions. Cash used in investing activities was $576,000 in fiscal 2008.
 
Financing Cash Flows. Net cash used in financing activities in fiscal 2010 was $1.6 million. In fiscal 2010 uses of cash included $1.9 million of principal payments under debt obligations. This amount was offset by proceeds of $0.4 million from borrowings on revolving line of credit. Net cash provided by financing activities in fiscal 2009 was $1.1 million. In fiscal 2009 sources of cash included $1.2 million in proceeds from the exercise of warrants and $1.0 million from borrowings under debt obligations. This amount was offset by a payment of $1.1 million for principal payments under debt obligations. Net cash used in financing activities in fiscal 2008 was $2.3 million. In fiscal 2008 cash used for principal payments under debt obligations was $3.3 million. This amount was offset by $1.0 million in borrowing under debt obligations and $20,000 of proceeds from issuance of common stock.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
 
     In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance that establishes the Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification” or "ASC") as the single source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for Commission registrants. The Codification supercedes all existing non-Commission accounting literature not included in the Codification. The FASB will not issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates, which will serve to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the basis for conclusions on the changes to the Codification. GAAP was not intended to be changed as a result of the FASB’s Codification project, but it did change the way guidance is organized and presented. As a result, these changes impacted how companies reference GAAP in their financial statements and in their accounting policies for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Company has implemented the Codification in this prospectus by providing a plain English approach when describing any new or updated authoritative guidance.
 
     In October 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables that are outside the scope of the software revenue recognition guidance. Under the new guidance, when vendor specific objective evidence or third party evidence for deliverables in an arrangement cannot be determined, a best estimate of the selling price is required to separate deliverables and allocate arrangement consideration using the relative selling price method. The new guidance includes new disclosure requirements on how the application of the relative selling price method affects the timing and amount of revenue recognition. The new guidance will become effective for Unify beginning May 1, 2011, with earlier adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this guidance.
 
     In May 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance for the accounting and reporting of subsequent events that occur between the balance sheet date and issuance of financial statements. Issuers are required to recognize the effects, if material, of subsequent events in the financial statements if the subsequent event provides additional evidence about conditions that existed as of the balance sheet date. The issuer must also disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated and the nature of any nonrecognized subsequent events. This guidance became effective for financial reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. We adopted this guidance in fiscal 2010. We evaluated subsequent events through the date our Annual Report on Form 10-K was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
 
     In September 2006, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on fair value measurements. This guidance defines fair value, establishes a framework and gives guidance regarding the methods used for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and it did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
 
     In December 2007, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on business combinations. The standard changes the accounting for business combinations including the measurement of acquirer shares issued in consideration for a business combination, the recognition of contingent consideration, the accounting for pre-acquisition gain and loss contingencies, the recognition of capitalized in-process research and development, the accounting for acquisition-related restructuring cost accruals, the treatment of acquisition related transaction costs and the recognition of changes in the acquirer’s income tax valuation allowance. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, with early adoption prohibited. We have accounted for the acquisition of AXS-One Inc. in June 2009 under this guidance. See Note 2.

     In December 2007, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on noncontrolling interests in consolidated financial Statements. The guidance changes the accounting and reporting for minority interests. Minority interests will be recharacterized as noncontrolling interests and will be reported as a component of equity separate from the parent’s equity, and purchases or sales of equity interests that do not result in a change in control will be accounted for as equity transactions. In addition, net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest will be included in net income and, upon a loss of control, the interest sold, as well as any interest retained, will be recorded at fair value with any gain or loss recognized in net income. The guidance was effective for us beginning May 1, 2009. We adopted the guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and it did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
 
     In March 2008, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities. This guidance requires enhanced disclosures about an entity’s derivative instruments and hedging activities with a view toward improving the transparency of financial reporting, and is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The guidance encourages, but does not require, comparative disclosures for earlier periods at initial adoption. We have adopted the guidance and it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
 
     In May 2008, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on accounting for convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion (including partial cash settlement). This guidance requires issuers of convertible debt that may be settled wholly or partly in cash when converted to account for the debt and equity components separately. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and must be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. We adopted the guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and it did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
 
     In April 2008, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on the determining the useful life of intangible assets. This guidance amends the factors that should be considered in developing the renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset. It also requires expanded disclosure related to the determination of intangible asset useful lives. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We adopted the guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and it did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
 
COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
 
     We provide what we believe is a competitive total compensation package to our executive management team through a combination of base salary, an annual cash incentive plan, a long-term equity incentive compensation plan and broad-based benefits programs. We place emphasis on pay for performance-based incentive compensation programs, which make payments when certain company or revenue goals are achieved. This Compensation Discussion and Analysis explains our compensation philosophy, policies and practices with respect to our CEO, CFO, and the other three most highly-compensated executive officers, which are collectively referred to as the named executive officers.
 
Compensation Committee
 
     We have established a Compensation Committee (the “Compensation Committee”), the primary responsibilities of which are to periodically review and approve the compensation and other benefits for our employees, officers and independent directors, including reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of our executive officers in light of those goals and objectives, and setting compensation for these officers based on those evaluations. Our Compensation Committee also administers and has discretionary authority over the issuance of stock awards under our stock compensation plans.
 
     The Compensation Committee has in the past, and may in the future, delegate authority to review and approve the compensation of our employees to certain of our executive officers, including with respect to stock option grants issued under our Stock Option Plan. Even where the Compensation Committee has not delegated authority, our executive officers typically make recommendations to the Compensation Committee regarding compensation to be paid to our employees and the size of stock options and stock grants.
 
     The Compensation Committee is comprised of three members, Tery Larrew, Robert Majteles and Steven Whiteman. Mr. Larrew is the chairperson of the Compensation Committee. The Board has determined that Mr. Larrew meets the independence requirements of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules.
 
The Objectives of Our Executive Compensation Program
 
     Our Compensation Committee is responsible for establishing and administering our policies governing the compensation for our executive officers. Our Compensation Committee is composed entirely of non-employee independent directors. The primary goals of the Compensation Committee with respect to executive compensation are to attract and retain the most talented and dedicated executives possible, to tie annual and long-term cash and equity incentives to achievement of specified performance objectives, and to align executives’ incentives with stockholder value creation. To achieve these goals, the Compensation Committee intends to implement and maintain compensation plans that tie a substantial portion of executives’ overall compensation to our financial and operational performance, as measured by metrics such as revenue, revenue growth and profitability. The Compensation Committee evaluates individual executive performance with a goal of setting compensation at levels the Compensation Committee believes are comparable with executives in other companies of similar size and stage of development operating in the software industry while taking into account our relative performance and our own strategic goals. In March 2010, we retained a compensation consultant to review our policies and procedures with respect to executive and board compensation and update a market compensation study that was originally completed in March 2007. The Compensation Committee used the results of the consultant’s analysis to evaluate the appropriateness of compensation levels for our executives compared to other companies of similar size.
 
25
 

 

     Our Compensation Committee meets outside the presence of all of our executive officers, including the named executive officers, to consider appropriate compensation for our CEO. For all other named executive officers, the Compensation Committee meets outside the presence of all executive officers except our CEO, Mr. Wille, who reviews each other named executive officer’s performance with the Compensation Committee and makes recommendations to the Compensation Committee with respect to the appropriate base salary, cash bonus incentives and equity incentives. The Compensation Committee considers the annual performance of the executive officer, the importance of the executive position to the Company, the past salary history of the executive officer and the contributions to be made by the executive officer to us. The Compensation Committee also reviews the analyses and recommendations of the executive compensation consultant retained by the Compensation Committee. After considering the relevant information, the Compensation Committee establishes the annual compensation package for our executive officers.
 
     We use the following principles to guide our decisions regarding executive compensation:
 
Allocation between long-term and currently paid out compensation.
 
     The compensation we currently pay consists of base pay and annual cash incentive compensation. The long-term compensation consists entirely of stock awards or stock options pursuant to our 2001 Stock Option Plan. The allocation between long-term and currently paid out compensation is based on an analysis of how the enterprise software industry and companies of similar size in the general technology market use long-term and currently paid compensation to pay their executive officers.
 
Allocation between cash and non-cash compensation.
 
     It is our intent to allocate all currently paid compensation and annual incentive pay in the form of cash and all long-term compensation in the form of stock awards and/or stock options to purchase our common stock. We consider competitive market analyses when determining the allocation between cash and non-cash compensation.
 
Provide compensation opportunities targeted at market median levels.
 
     To attract and retain executives with the ability and the experience necessary to lead us and deliver strong performance to our stockholders, we strive to provide a total compensation package that is competitive with total compensation provided by our industry peer group. We benchmark our salary and target incentive levels and practices as well as our performance results in relation to other comparable general technology and enterprise software companies of similar size in terms of revenue and market capitalization. In fiscal 2010, we engaged a compensation consultant to provide us with a comprehensive evaluation of our executive compensation program. The consultant used multiple data sources, including confidential market compensation surveys and public survey data to enable them to compare our company to others with similar attributes.
 
     We target base salaries and target total compensation to result in annual salaries equal to the market median (50th percentile) pay level. We believe our executive compensation packages are reasonable when considering our business strategy, our compensation philosophy and the competitive market pay data.
 
Require performance goals to be substantially achieved in order for the majority of the target pay levels to be earned.
 
     Our executive compensation program emphasizes pay for performance. Performance is measured based on the achievement of company and divisional performance goals established by our Board of Directors relative to our Board of Director approved annual business plan. The goals for our company and divisional measures are established so that target attainment is not assured. The attainment of these company and divisional goals will require significant effort on the part of our executives.
 
Offer the same comprehensive benefits package to all full-time employees.
 
     We provide a competitive benefits package to all full-time employees which includes health and welfare benefits, such as medical, dental, vision care, disability insurance, life insurance benefits, and a 401(k) savings plan. We have no structured executive perquisite benefits (e.g., club memberships or company vehicles) for any executive officer, including the named executive officers, and we currently do not provide any deferred compensation programs or supplemental pensions to any executive officer, including the named executive officers.
 
26
 

 

Provide fair and equitable compensation.
 
     We provide a total compensation program that we believe will be perceived by both our executive officers and our stockholders as fair and equitable. In addition to conducting analyses of market pay levels and considering individual circumstances related to each executive officer, we also consider the pay of each executive officer relative to each other executive officer and relative to other members of the management team. We have designed our total compensation programs to be consistent for our executive management team.
 
Our Executive Compensation Program Elements
 
     Overall, our executive compensation programs are designed to be consistent with the objectives and principles set forth above. For each fiscal year, the Compensation Committee will select, in its discretion, the executive officers of the Company or its subsidiaries who are to participate in the Company’s incentive plans. The Compensation Committee will establish the terms and conditions applicable to any award granted under the plan and a participant will be eligible to receive an award under the plan in accordance with such terms and conditions. Awards will be paid in whole or in part in cash, common stock or other property and will generally be paid in the first quarter following completion of a given fiscal year. The actual amount of any discretionary bonus payment will be determined following a review of each executive’s individual performance and contribution to our strategic goals. The plan does not fix a maximum payout for any officer’s annual discretionary incentive payment. With the exception of the Company’s CEO and COO, no other executive officers have an employment agreement. The basic elements of our executive compensation programs are summarized below:
 
Base Salary. Base salaries for our executives are established based on the scope of their responsibilities, taking into account competitive market compensation paid by other companies for similar positions. Generally, we believe that executive base salaries should be targeted near the median of the range of salaries for executives in similar positions with similar responsibilities at comparable companies, in line with our compensation philosophy. Base salaries are reviewed annually, and adjusted from time to time to realign salaries with market levels after taking into account individual responsibilities, performance and experience. For fiscal 2010, this review occurred at the beginning of the first quarter.
 
Management Incentive Plan. The Company, through the Compensation Committee, maintains an annual Management Incentive Plan (“MIP”) such that executives of the Company can receive an incentive payment based on the achievement of pre-defined objectives. The incentive plan awards are intended to compensate officers for achieving financial and operational goals and for achieving individual annual performance objectives. These objectives vary depending on the individual executive, but relate generally to the Company’s financial results. The Company’s financial performance did not meet the MIP pre-defined objective for fiscal 2010, therefore, no MIP cash incentive bonuses were paid for fiscal 2010.
 
Long-Term Equity Incentive Program. We believe that long-term performance is achieved through an ownership culture that encourages such performance by our executive officers through the use of stock and stock-based awards. Our stock compensation guidelines have been established to provide certain of our employees, including our executive officers, with incentives to help align those employees’ interests with the interests of stockholders. The Compensation Committee believes that the use of stock and stock-based awards is a significant component in enabling the company to achieve its compensation goals. We do maintain stock award guidelines and all stock awards are made at the direction of the Compensation Committee. We believe that the aggregate equity ownership levels for our executive officers should be set near competitive median levels for comparable companies. For fiscal 2010, this review occurred at the beginning of the first quarter.
 
Options and Stock Awards. Our 2001 Stock Option Plan authorizes us to grant options to purchase shares of common stock to our employees, directors and consultants. Our Compensation Committee is the administrator of the stock option plan. Stock option grants are made at the commencement of employment and, occasionally, following a significant change in job responsibilities or to meet other special retention or performance objectives. The Compensation Committee reviews and approves stock option awards to executive officers based upon a review of competitive compensation data, its assessment of individual performance, a review of each executive’s existing long-term incentives, and retention considerations. Periodic stock option grants are made at the discretion of the Compensation Committee to eligible employees and, in appropriate circumstances, the Compensation Committee considers the recommendations of members of management, such as Mr. Wille, our Chief Executive Officer. In fiscal 2010, certain named executive officers were awarded stock options in the amounts indicated in the section entitled “Grants of Plan Based Awards.” These grants included stock option grants made in May 2009.
 
27
 

 

Other Compensation. In accordance with our compensation philosophy, the Compensation Committee may, in its discretion, revise, amend or authorize any changes to the executive officer’s compensation or benefits as deemed necessary. There were discretionary incentive awards made to our CEO and CFO for their efforts related to our June 2009 acquisition of AXS-One Inc. during fiscal 2010.
 
Retirement Savings Opportunity. The Company maintains a 401(k) employee retirement savings plan. Eligible employees may contribute up to 100% of their pre-tax salary, but not more than statutory limits. We match a portion of employee contributions, currently 50% of the first 6% of compensation deferred. We do not provide an option for our employees to invest in our common stock in the 401(k) plan.
 
Health and Welfare Benefits. All full-time employees, including our named executive officers, may participate in our health and welfare benefit programs, including medical, dental and vision care coverage, disability insurance and life insurance.
 
Tax Deductibility of Executive Compensation
 
     Limitations on deductibility of compensation may occur under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code which generally limits the tax deductibility of compensation paid by a public company to its chief executive officer and certain other highly compensated executive officers to $1 million in the year the compensation becomes taxable to the executive officer. There is an exception to the limit on deductibility for performance-based compensation that meets certain requirements.
 
Compensation Committee Report
 
     The Compensation Committee is comprised entirely of independent directors. The Compensation Committee has reviewed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis required by Item 402(b) of Regulation S-K with management and, based on such review and discussions, the Committee recommended to our Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Prospectus.
 
     Submitted by the Compensation Committee: Tery R. Larrew, Robert J. Majteles, Steven D. Whiteman.
 
SUMMARY COMPENSATION TABLE
 
     The following table sets forth information concerning the compensation earned during the fiscal years ended April 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008 by our President and Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Financial Officer and our three other most highly compensated executive officers for the last three (3) fiscal years.

(1)       The Fair Value of the Option Award represents the total compensation expense the Company will record over the vesting period in accordance with the grant-date fair value-based compensation expense calculated under FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 - Stock Compensation. This is the amount reported in the Summary Compensation Table above.
 
(2)   The total cash amount the executive will be required to pay to the Company to buy the stock represented by the option award at the time of exercise. The exercise price for these option awards is $2.60 which was the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.
 
(3)   The current market value is based on the April 30, 2010 closing price of $3.60.
 
(4)   The economic gain or loss to the executive officer is calculated as the difference between the market value of the option award at $3.60 per share and the cash cost to exercise these shares at $2.60 per share.
 
Stock Option Plans
 
     Our 2001 Stock Option Plan (the “2001 Option Plan”) is administered by our Compensation Committee. The objectives of the plan include attracting, motivating and retaining key personnel and promoting our success by linking the interests of our employees, directors and consultants with our success.
 
     Prior to the 2001 Option Plan, the Company had a 1991 Stock Options Plan (the “1991 Option Plan”) which expired as of March 2001. Under the 1991 Option Plan, the Company was able to grant options to eligible employees, directors and consultants at prices not less than the fair market value at the date of grant for incentive stock options and not less than 85% of the fair market value at the date of grant for non-statutory stock options. Options granted under the 1991 Option Plan generally vest over four years, are exercisable to the extent vested, and expire 10 years from the date of grant.
 
Options Available for Issuance
 
     Under the 2001 Stock Option Plan, the Company may grant options to purchase up to 2,000,000 shares of common stock to eligible employees, directors, and consultants at prices not less than the fair market value at the date of grant for incentive stock options and not less than 85% of the fair market value at the date of grant for non-statutory stock options. As of April 30, 2010 there were 509,965 options available under the 2001 Option Plan.
 
32
 

 

Term of Options
 
     The term of each option is ten years from the date of the grant of the option, unless a shorter period is established for incentive stock options or the administrator of the 2001 Stock Option Plan establishes a shorter period.
 
Vesting Schedule
 
     Options granted under our 2001 Stock Option Plan, unless waived or modified in a particular option agreement or by action of the Compensation Committee, vest over a four year period. The options generally have no vesting until the end of one year at which time they become 25% vested. Following the first year, the options generally vest monthly on a ratable basis over the next three years. At the end of four years the options are fully vested.
 
Administration
 
     The Compensation Committee has full discretionary authority to determine all matters relating to options granted under the plan. The Compensation Committee has the authority to determine the persons eligible to receive options, the number of shares subject to each option, the exercise price of each option, any vesting schedule, any acceleration of the vesting schedule and any extension of the exercise period.
 
Amendment and Termination
 
     Our Board of Directors has authority to suspend, amend or terminate the plan, except as would adversely affect participants’ rights to outstanding awards without their consent. As the plan administrator, our Compensation Committee has the authority to interpret the plan and options granted under the plan and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for plan administration.
 
Other Stock Options
 
     In fiscal 2003, the Board authorized the issuance of non-registered non-plan stock options (“Non-Plan Options”) for individual senior level executive recruitment. These Non-Plan Options are granted pursuant to written agreements that are not subject to the terms of the 2001 Option Plan, but have similar terms and conditions. The options and shares issuable under the Non-Plan Options are restricted securities under the Securities Act and may not be issued or sold except under an effective registration statement or an applicable exemption therefrom. The Non-Plan Option agreements contain substantially similar terms as options issued under our 2001 Option Plan, including vesting schedule and option term.
 
Employment Agreements and Termination and Change of Control Agreements
 
     We have an employment agreement with Mr. Wille, our President and CEO, which became effective October 1, 2000. Under the agreement, Mr. Wille originally received an annual salary of $220,000, subject to Board adjustment, and is eligible to receive bonuses upon Unify achieving certain benchmarks in its business plan. Following a merger of the Company or sale of substantially all of its assets, the unvested portion of all options held by Mr. Wille as of the date of the transaction will automatically vest. Should Mr. Wille be terminated without cause or resign for good reason, all options held by Mr. Wille will have the benefit of twelve (12) additional months of vesting and he will receive an amount equal to twelve (12) months’ salary and the continuation of health benefits for 12 months following termination.
 
33
 

 

     We also have an employment agreement with Mr. Jensen, our Executive Vice President and COO, which became effective June 30, 2010. The agreement has a three-year term, which may be extended year to year upon expiration. Under the agreement, Mr. Jensen is entitled to a base salary of $325,000 with a performance bonus up to 55% of base salary, and guaranteed additional payments of $175,000 and $87,500 for the first and second years, respectively, of his employment with the Company. Mr. Jensen will also be eligible to participate in the Company’s employee benefit programs, including the Company’s stock option plans. If the Company terminates Mr. Jensen’s employment for any reason, other than cause, or if Mr. Jensen terminates his employment for good reason, Mr. Jensen shall receive his base salary, bonus, and benefits for the twelve months following termination. If Mr. Jensen terminates his employment for any reason, other than death, disability, or good reason, prior to the first anniversary of Mr. Jensen’s employment, Mr. Jensen shall pay the Company a buy-out and release fee of $500,000.
 
Change in Control
 
     Under our 1991 and 2001 Stock Option Plans, should we merge with or otherwise be acquired by another company in a transaction where our stockholders do not retain a majority of the voting stock, such event would constitute a “Change of Control.” If there is a Change of Control and the successor company fails to either assume the outstanding options or substitute substantially equivalent options for its own stock, the vesting of all outstanding Unify options shall accelerate to become fully vested and immediately exercisable. Any outstanding options will terminate if they are not exercised upon consummation of the merger or assumed or replaced by the successor corporation.

Option Exercises and Stock Vested
 
     There have been no exercises of stock options by our named executive officers during the last fiscal year.
 
Compensation of Directors
 
     The compensation for each individual non-employee (“Independent”) Director is assessed by the other members of the Board and is generally based upon the degree and quality of his/her participation in Board activities. Directors receive an annual cash retainer and an annual stock option. For the year ended April 30, 2010 each director was awarded 6,500 options to purchase common stock. A summary of the compensation for each Independent Director is included on the following table.
 
       Based Upon      Annual Maximum      How Paid
Annual Cash Retainer (1)   Board participation   $25,000 in cash   $6,250 per quarter
 
Annual Stock Option Grant (2)   Board determination of award to be made pursuant to the 2001 Stock Option Plan   Up to 10,000 shares of common stock   An option to purchase Unify common stock at FMV at the date of grant with a one year vesting period

(1)      
Unify pays non-employee directors an annual cash retainer fee of $25,000 which is paid in four quarterly payments of $6,250 each. Payments are to be made in the middle of each fiscal quarter. Directors also receive compensation for their participation or chairing of committees. These payments are paid in four quarterly payments are to be made in the middle of each fiscal quarter. The Chairman of the Board, Chairman of the Audit Committee and Chairman of the M&A Committee are paid $10,000 annually. The Chairman of the Compensation Committee is paid an annual fee of $5,000. An annual fee of $2,000 is paid for participation in the Compensation Committee and an annual fee of $3,000 is paid for participation on the Audit Committee.
 
(2)  
Directors can receive an annual stock option grant of up to 10,000 shares of Unify common stock. Eligibility is determined by the Board and is based on several factors from the prior fiscal year, including the financial performance of the Company, the Director’s personal contribution to the Company and any other relevant factors or events. The stock option grant, if any, is made in May of each year and the exercise price shall be equivalent to the fair market value of the stock at the time of the option grant. Any such option grant will vest monthly over a period of twelve (12) months.

Director Restricted Stock Plan
 
     In fiscal 2003, the Board adopted, without a need for shareholder approval, the 2002 Director Restricted Stock Plan (the “Director Restricted Stock Plan”) as part of a program to provide compensation we felt was necessary to attract, retain and reward members of our Board of Directors who were willing to provide the time and energy that we believe is required to meet our business goals. At the end of fiscal 2007, the Board changed the Director Compensation such that there is no longer a stock award component. Since the sole purpose of the Director Restricted Stock Plan was to provide stock awards to the Directors, this plan is no longer used. Consequently, there were no shares awarded in the fiscal 2010 under the Director Restricted Stock Plan and there is a balance of 3,862 shares available at April 30, 2010.
 
Indemnification of Officer and Directors
 
     Unify’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate”) limits the liability of our directors to the maximum extent permitted by Delaware law. Delaware law provides that a corporation’s certificate of incorporation may contain a provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duties as directors, except for liability for (i) any breach of their duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or (iv) any transactions from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. Our bylaws call for us to indemnify our directors, executive officers, and trustees to the fullest extent permitted by law. We believe that such indemnification covers negligence and gross negligence. Our bylaws also permit us to secure insurance on behalf of any executive officer, director, employee or other agent for any liability arising out of his or her actions in such capacity (subject to certain exclusions), regardless of whether the bylaws permit indemnification.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
 
     Amounts Due from Officers, Directors and Principal Stockholders. Except for advances of reimbursable expenses, we have made no other loans to executive officers, directors, stockholders or other affiliates. Any such loan must be approved by a majority of those Board members who are independent of and have no interest in the transaction.
 
     Upon consummation of Unify’s 2004 equity financing, the investors affiliated with Special Situations Funds (“SSF”) exercised their right to designate a director nominee and designated Robert J. Majteles to serve as a member of our Board of Directors. Mr. Majteles joined the Board of Directors in 2004. Mr. Majteles is the founder of Treehouse Capital, LLC (“Treehouse”), an investment firm. SSF has entered into an agreement with Mr. Majteles and Treehouse pursuant to which Treehouse, through Mr. Majteles, provides certain management and financial advisory services for SSF on request. If Mr. Majteles’ services are requested by SSF with respect to a particular portfolio investment, Treehouse is entitled to ten percent of SSF’s net gain (as defined) or net loss (as defined) on the investment during the term of the agreement, offset by certain fees that may be paid by the portfolio company to Treehouse or Mr. Majteles directly. Under the agreement, Mr. Majteles is required to act independently of SSF in discharging his fiduciary duties to stockholders of any company for which he serves as a member of the board of directors and also is obligated not to disclose to the funds or use for his own benefit any confidential information he obtains in connection with his service for a particular portfolio company. Mr. Majteles does not have or share voting or dispositive power over any securities held by SSF. Mr. Majteles has agreed to serve as a member of Unify’s Board of Directors pursuant to this agreement.
     
     In connection with the acquisition of Daegis, on June 29, 2010, Mr. Jensen was issued a convertible subordinated note as partial consideration for his Daegis shares. Pursuant to its terms, this note was converted by Unify on September 1, 2010 into 749,857 shares of Unify common stock.  In addition, upon the expiration of the 18 month indemnity set-off period, Mr. Jensen may be entitled to up to an additional 178,410 shares of Unify common stock currently held by an escrow agent.
 
Director Independence. Six of our seven directors are independent under the rules of the NASDAQ Marketplace. Only our CEO, Mr. Wille, is not considered independent under such rules.
 
SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
 
     Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our executive officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent (10%) of Unify’s common stock to file initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”). Such persons are required by Commission regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports filed by them.
 
     Based solely upon our review of such reports furnished to us and written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that all filing requirements applicable to our executive officers, directors and more than ten percent (10%) stockholders for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2010, were met.

STOCK OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
 
     The following table sets forth certain information as of June 30, 2010 with respect to the beneficial ownership of our common stock by: (i) each member of our Board of Directors; (ii) each of our named executives; (iii) all of our directors and executive officers as a group; and (iv) each stockholder who is known to us to own beneficially more than 5% of our outstanding common stock.

In addition, each warrant to purchase AXS-One Common Stock (each, a “Company Warrant”) was assumed by Unify and each such assumed Company Warrant was converted into a warrant in substantially the same form as the corresponding Company Warrant to purchase 0.019442 shares of Unify Common Stock per share of AXS-One Common Stock subject to such Company Warrant at an exercise price per share of Unify Common Stock of $0.01.

The holders of Old Notes shall also be eligible to receive additional shares of Unify Common Stock based on the performance of the Company’s net license revenue for the period commencing on June 30, 2009 and ending on July 31, 2010.

Equity Compensation Plan Information
 
     Unify maintains a compensation plan that provides for the issuance of its Common Stock to officers, directors, other employees or consultants. This plan is known as the 2001 Stock Option Plan (the “Option Plan”) and it was approved by the stockholders. The 1991 Stock Option Plan, which had a ten-year life, has expired and has therefore ceased to be available for new grants. In fiscal 2003, the Board adopted, without a need for shareholder approval, the 2002 Director Restricted Stock Plan (the “Director Restricted Stock Plan”) as part of a program to provide compensation we felt was necessary to attract, retain and reward members of our Board of Directors who were willing to provide the time and energy that we believe is required to meet our business goals. The following table sets forth information regarding outstanding options and shares reserved for future issuance under the foregoing plans as of April 30, 2010:

Material Features of Director Restricted Stock Plan
 
     On May 1, 2002 the Board approved the Director Restricted Stock Plan as part of a compensation program designed to attract and retain independent members for our board of directors. The maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the Director Restricted Stock Plan is 100,000. In fiscal 2010, there were no shares awarded under this plan. As of April 30, 2010 there is a balance of 3,862 shares reserved for future awards under this plan. The Company does not intend to issue any of the remaining shares and intends to terminate this plan.

Our common stock has no preemptive or conversion rights or other subscription rights. There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to our common stock. All outstanding shares of our common stock are fully paid and non-assessable.
 
Preferred Stock
 
      As of September 7, 2010, 7,931,370 shares of preferred stock were authorized, and no shares were outstanding. Our board of directors has the authority to issue the shares of preferred stock in one or more series. The board of directors, without further approval of the stockholders, is authorized to fix the dividend rights and terms, conversion rights, voting rights, redemption rights and terms, liquidation preferences, and any other rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions applicable to each series of preferred stock. Although it presently has no intention to do so, our board of directors, without stockholder approval, can issue preferred stock with voting and conversion rights which could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of our common stock. The issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a change in control of Unify.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
 
     The Selling Stockholders, which as used herein includes donees, pledges, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares of our common stock or interests in shares of our common stock received after the date of this prospectus from a Selling Stockholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their shares of our common stock or interests in shares of our common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at the prevailing market price for the shares, at prices related to such market price, at varying prices or at negotiated prices.
 
     The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares or interests therein:
  • ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
     
  • block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent, buy may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
     
  • purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its own account;
     
  • an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
     
  • privately negotiated transactions;
     
  • short sales after the date the registration statement of which this prospectus is apart is declared effective by the Commission;
     
  • through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
     
  • broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
     
  • a combination of any such methods of sale; and
     
  • any other method permitted under applicable law.
     The Selling Stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of our common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgee or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of our common stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(30 or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee, or other successors in interest as Selling Stockholders under this prospectus. The Selling Stockholders may also transfer the shares of our common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferee, pledges or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
 
     In connection with the sale of our common stock or interests therein, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver these securities to close out short positions entered into after the date the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part is declared effective by the Commission, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
 
47
 

 

      The aggregate proceeds to the Selling Stockholders from the sale of our common stock offered by them will be the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the Selling Stockholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of our common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering. Upon any exercise of the warrants by payment of cash, however, we will receive the exercise price of the warrants.
 
     The Selling Stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule.
 
     The Selling Stockholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of our common stock or interests therein may be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit they earn on any resale of the shares may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Selling Stockholders who are “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.
 
     To the extent required, the shares of our common stock to be sold, the names of the Selling Stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.
 
     In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, our common stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states our common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.
 
     We have advised the Selling Stockholders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the Selling Stockholders and their affiliates. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the Selling Stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.
 
     We have agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders and their affiliates and underwriters against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, relating to the registration of the shares offered by this prospectus; provided however that we will not be required to indemnify any Selling Stockholder to the extent that any loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity with information furnished to us in writing specifically for use in this prospectus and in the registration statement. Likewise, each Selling Stockholder has agreed, severally but not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, the Company, its directors, officers, employees, stockholders and each person who controls the Company against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses resulting from any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission of a material fact made in this prospectus or any violation by such selling stockholder of any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act applicable to such selling stockholder and relating to action or inaction required of such selling stockholder in connection with the distribution of securities offered in this prospectus. No selling stockholder, however, will be liable to the Company for amounts in excess of the net proceeds received from the sale of such selling stockholder’s shares pursuant to this prospectus.
 
     We have agreed with the Selling Stockholders to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective until the earlier of (a) the date on which all of the shares covered by such registration statement shall have been sold to the public, or (b) the date on which the shares (in the opinion of our counsel evidenced by a written opinion issued to the Selling Stockholders in form reasonably acceptable to them) may be immediately sold without restriction (including, without limitation, as to volume restrictions) by each Selling Stockholder thereof without registration under the Securities Act.
 
48
 

 

     Under applicable rules and regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, any person engaged in a distribution of the shares may be limited in its ability to engage in market activities with respect to such shares. In addition and without limiting the foregoing, each Selling Stockholder will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations thereunder, which provisions may limit the timing of purchase and sales of any of the shares by the Selling Stockholders. This may affect the marketability of the shares.
 
LEGAL MATTERS
 
     The validity of the securities to be sold pursuant to this prospectus will be passed upon by K&L Gates LLP, counsel to the Company.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accountants
 
Board of Directors and Shareholders
Unify Corporation

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Unify Corporation (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries (collectively, the Company) as of April 30, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended April 30, 2010.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Unify Corporation and subsidiaries as of April 30, 2010 and 2009, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended April 30, 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

UNIFY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
April 30, 2010
(Tables in thousands of dollars, except share and per share data, unless otherwise indicated)
 
Note 1. The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
The Company
 
Unify (the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is a global provider of archiving, application development, data management, and migration software solutions. Our archiving solutions meet an organization’s requirement to archive, discover and preserve electronically stored information for eDiscovery, regulatory compliance, global email access and storage savings. Our software helps companies to maximize value and reduce cost in the development, deployment, management and retention of business applications, data and electronically stored information.
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Unify Corporation pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”). Such financial statements include our accounts and those of our subsidiaries that we control due to ownership of a controlling interest. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
 
The functional currency of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries is their local currency. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates. Income and expense accounts are translated at average rates of exchange in effect during the reporting period. Foreign currency transaction gains or losses are included in other income (expense), net. Foreign currency adjustments resulting from the translation process are excluded from net income and recorded in other comprehensive income (loss).
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include revenue recognition and the assessment of the valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets, valuation allowance for deferred taxes and the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
 
Cash Equivalents
 
Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased and are stated at cost. Cash equivalents consist primarily of demand deposits with banks and money market funds.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. The carrying amounts of long term accounts receivable approximate fair value based on the collection analysis performed and recording of necessary reserves. The fair values of the Company's long term borrowings are estimated based on the Company's current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. Such values approximate the carrying value of the borrowings as of fiscal year end.
 
F-7
 

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk and Credit Evaluations
 
Financial instruments potentially subjecting the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents primarily with five financial institutions which at times may exceed federal insured levels. The Company licenses its products principally to companies in the United States, Europe, Canada, Latin America, Russia, Japan, Singapore and Australia. For the year ended April 30, 2010, one customer accounted for 14% of consolidated revenues and another accounted for 11% of consolidated revenues. No single customer accounted for 10% or more of consolidated revenue in the year ended April 30, 2009. We had one customer in the year ended April 30, 2008 that accounted for 12% of consolidated revenues. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral. Allowances are maintained for potential credit losses. International revenues include all our software license and service revenues from customers located outside the United States. International revenues accounted for 50%, 68% and 78% of total revenues in fiscal years 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
 
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
 
An allowance for doubtful accounts is established to ensure trade receivables are not overstated due to uncollectability. Bad-debt reserves are maintained for all customers based on a variety of factors, including the length of time receivables are past due, significant one-time events and historical experience. Additional reserves for individual accounts are recorded when the Company becomes aware of a customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations, such as in the case of bankruptcy filings or deterioration in the customer’s operating results or financial position. If circumstances related to customers change, estimates of the recoverability of receivables would be further adjusted. Following is a schedule that details activity for the allowance for doubtful accounts and the allowance for long-term accounts and notes receivable.

Year ended April 30, 2010     80     -     2       -       82

Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, generally three to five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the lease term.
 
Capitalized Software
 
Under the criteria set forth in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance on accounting for the costs of computer software to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed, capitalization of software development costs begins upon the establishment of technological feasibility of the product. With respect to the Company’s software development process, technological feasibility is established upon completion of a working model. To date, the Company’s products have been released shortly after reaching technological feasibility. Therefore, development costs incurred after completion of a working model and prior to general release have not been significant. Accordingly, no software development costs have been capitalized by the Company to date.
 
F-8
 

 

Long-Lived Assets
 
The Company evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets or intangibles may be in excess of fair value or not recoverable. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. No impairment has been identified during any of the periods presented.
 
The Company periodically reevaluates the original assumptions and rationale utilized in the establishment of the carrying value and estimated useful lives of the long-lived assets. The criteria used for these evaluations include management’s estimate of the asset’s continuing ability to generate income from operations and positive cash flows in future periods.
 
Goodwill
 
Goodwill is the excess of cost of an acquired entity over the amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Goodwill is not amortized. Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis as of April 30, and between annual tests if indicators of potential impairment exist, using a fair-value-based approach. No impairment of goodwill has been identified during any of the periods presented (Note 4).
 
Intangible Assets
 
Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated period of benefit. We evaluate the recoverability of intangible assets periodically and take into account events or circumstances that warrant revised estimates of useful lives or that indicate that impairment exists. All of our intangible assets are subject to amortization. No impairments of intangible assets have been identified during any of the periods presented (Note 4).
 
Revenue Recognition
 
The Company generates revenue from software license sales and related services, including maintenance and support, and consulting services. Additionally, the Company generates revenue from its migration solutions products. The Company licenses its products to end-user customers, independent software vendors (“ISVs”), international distributors and value-added resellers (“VARs”). The Company’s products are generally sold with a perpetual license. The Company’s contracts with ISVs, VARs and international distributors do not include special considerations such as rights of return, stock rotation, price protection or special acceptance. The Company exercises judgment in connection with the determination of the amount of revenue to be recognized in each accounting period. The nature of each contractual arrangement determines how revenues and related costs are recognized.
 
For software license arrangements that do not require significant modification or customization of the underlying software, revenue is recognized when the software product or service has been shipped or electronically delivered, the license fees are fixed and determinable, uncertainties regarding customer acceptance are resolved, collectability is probable and persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists.
 
For fixed price arrangements that require significant modification or customization of software, the Company uses the percentage-of-completion method for revenue recognition. Under the percentage-of-completion method, progress towards completion is measured by labor hours.
 
The Company considers a signed non-cancelable license agreement, a customer purchase order, a customer purchase requisition, or a sales quotation signed by an authorized purchaser of the customer to be persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists such that revenue can be recognized.
 
F-9
 

 

The Company’s customer contracts include multi-element arrangements that include a delivered element (a software license) and undelivered elements (such as maintenance and support and/or consulting). The value allocated to the undelivered elements is unbundled from the delivered element based on vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE) of the fair value of the maintenance and support and/or consulting, regardless of any separate prices stated within the contract. VSOE of fair value is defined as: (i) the price charged when the same element is sold separately, or (ii) if the element has not yet been sold separately, the price for the element established by management having the relevant authority when it is probable that the price will not change before the introduction of the element into the marketplace. The Company then allocates the remaining balance to the delivered element (a software license) regardless of any separate prices stated within the contract using the residual method as the fair value of all undelivered elements is determinable.
 
We defer revenue for any undelivered elements, and recognize revenue for delivered elements only when the fair values of undelivered elements are known, uncertainties regarding customer acceptance are resolved, and there are no customer-negotiated refund or return rights affecting the revenue recognized for delivered elements. If we cannot objectively determine the fair value of any undelivered element included in bundled software and service arrangements, we defer revenue until all elements are delivered and services have been performed, or until fair value can objectively be determined for any remaining undelivered elements.
 
An assessment of the ability of the Company’s customers to pay is another consideration that affects revenue recognition. In some cases, the Company sells to undercapitalized customers. In those circumstances, revenue recognition is deferred until cash is received, the customer has established a history of making timely payments or the customer’s financial condition has improved. Furthermore, once revenue has been recognized, the Company evaluates the related accounts receivable balance at each period end for amounts that we believe may no longer be collectible. This evaluation is largely done based on a review of the financial condition via credit agencies and historical experience with the customer. Any deterioration in credit worthiness of a customer may impact the Company’s evaluation of accounts receivable in any given period.
 
Revenue from support and maintenance activities, which consist of fees for ongoing support and unspecified product updates, are recognized ratably over the term of the maintenance contract, typically one year, and the associated costs are expensed as incurred. Consulting service arrangements are performed on a “best efforts” basis and may be billed under time-and-materials or fixed price arrangements. Revenues and expenses relating to providing consulting services are generally recognized as the services are performed.
 
Warranties and Indemnification
 
The Company offers a limited warranty for product and service sales that generally provide the customer a sixty-day warranty period against defects. To date, the Company has not incurred any material costs as a result of such warranties and has not accrued any liabilities related to such obligations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
 
The Company’s license agreements generally include certain provisions for indemnifying customers against liabilities if its product or services infringe upon a third-party’s intellectual property rights. To date, the Company has not incurred any material costs as a result of such indemnifications and has not accrued any liabilities related to such obligations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
 
F-10
 

 
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
Compensation expense includes the estimated fair value of equity awards vested during the reported period. Expense for equity awards vested is determined based on the grant date fair value previously calculated for pro forma disclosures. For the fiscal years ended April 30, 2010, 2009, and 2008 equity-based compensation expense was comprised of the following (in thousands):

  April 30, 2010      April 30, 2009      April 30, 2008
Cost of Sales $ 17   $ 14   $ 4
Product Development   122     75     30
Selling, General and Administrative   490     395     176
Total Equity-Based Compensation $      629   $      484   $      210
                 
The following table shows remaining unrecognized compensation expense on a pre-tax basis related to all types of nonvested equity awards outstanding as of April 30, 2010. This table does not include an estimate for future grants that may be issued (in thousands).
 
Fiscal Year Ending April 30,      Amount
       2011   $ 621
       2012     519
       2013     218
       2014     24
              Total   $ 1,382
       
The cost above is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.25 years.
 
The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate fair value of equity awards, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility. The Company’s calculations are made using the following weighted average assumptions: expected option life, 12 months following vesting; stock volatility, 92% in fiscal 2010, 90% in fiscal 2009, 104% in fiscal 2008; risk-free interest rates, 1.9% in fiscal 2010, 2.9% in fiscal 2009, 4.2% in fiscal 2008; and no dividends during the expected term. Not all stock options that have been granted will be exercised. Accordingly, the Company’s calculation of equity-based compensation expense includes an adjustment for the estimated number of options that will be forfeited. The Company uses a forfeiture rate of 20%, which is based on historical trends.
 
Under the 2001 Stock Option Plan (the “2001 Option Plan”), the Company may grant options to purchase up to 2,000,000 shares of common stock to eligible employees, directors, and consultants at prices not less than the fair market value at the date of grant for incentive stock options and not less than 85% of the fair market value at the date of grant for non-statutory stock options. Options granted under the 2001 Stock Option Plan generally vest over four years, are exercisable to the extent vested, and expire 10 years from the date of grant. Under the 1991 Stock Option Plan (the “1991 Option Plan”) which expired as of March 2001, the Company was able to grant options to eligible employees, directors and consultants at prices not less than the fair market value at the date of grant for incentive stock options and not less than 85% of the fair market value at the date of grant for non-statutory stock options. Options granted under the 1991 Option Plan generally vest over four years, are exercisable to the extent vested, and expire 10 years from the date of grant.
 
A summary of the Company’s stock option activity for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2010 is as follows:
 
        Weighted   Weighted      
        Average   average remaining   Aggregate
        Exercise   contractual   intrinsic
  Shares      Price      term (in years)      value (1)
Outstanding at April 30, 2009 1,075,804     $ 3.93   7.22   $ 496,992
Granted 705,300     $ 2.84          
Exercised (7,911 )   $ 1.59          
Cancelled/expired (109,696 )   $ 6.07          
Outstanding at April 30, 2010      1,663,497     $      3.34   7.12   $      1,271,375
 
____________________
 
(1)       Aggregate intrinsic value is defined as the difference between the current market value and the exercise price and is estimated using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the last trading day of the periods ended as of the dates indicated.
 
F-11
 

 

The total intrinsic value of awards exercised during the year ended April 30, 2010 and 2009 was $11,996 and $1,975, respectively. The total fair value of awards vested during the year ended April 30, 2010 and 2009 was $722,896 and $561,190, respectively.
 
A summary of the Company’s nonvested stock option activity for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2010 is as follows:
 
        Weighted
        Average
        Fair
  Shares      Value
Nonvested at April 30, 2009 460,464     $ 3.50
Granted 705,300     $ 1.54
Vested      (282,561 )   $ 2.56
Cancelled/expired (68,860 )   $ 2.44
Nonvested at April 30, 2010 814,343     $      2.18
           
Income Taxes
 
Deferred taxes are recorded for the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities and net operating loss carryforwards. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce deferred tax assets to an amount whose realization is more likely than not. U.S. income taxes are not provided on the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries as they are considered to be permanently reinvested.
 
Income (loss) Per Share
 
Earnings per share guidance requires a dual presentation of basic and diluted income (loss) per share (“EPS”). Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock (e.g. convertible preferred stock, warrants, and common stock options) were exercised or converted into common stock. Potential common shares in the diluted EPS computation are excluded for fiscal year 2010 as their effect would be antidilutive.
 
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
 
Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income (loss) and gains and losses on foreign currency translation.
 
Segment Reporting
 
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Our chief operating decision maker is our Chief Executive Officer. We have evaluated our approach for making operating decisions and assessing the performance of our business and, beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 as a result of our acquisition on AXS-One, we determined that we have three reportable segments: Database and Development Products (“DDP”), Integrated Content Archiving Solutions and Modernization and Migration Solutions.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
 
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance that establishes the Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification” or "ASC") as the single source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) recognized by the FASB to be applied by non-governmental entities.
 
F-12
 

 

Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for Commission registrants. The Codification supercedes all existing non-Commission accounting literature not included in the Codification. The FASB will not issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates, which will serve to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the basis for conclusions on the changes to the Codification. GAAP was not intended to be changed as a result of the FASB’s Codification project, but it did change the way guidance is organized and presented. As a result, these changes impacted how companies reference GAAP in their financial statements and in their accounting policies for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Company has implemented the Codification in this prospectus by providing a plain English approach when describing any new or updated authoritative guidance.
 
In October 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables that are outside the scope of the software revenue recognition guidance. Under the new guidance, when vendor specific objective evidence or third party evidence for deliverables in an arrangement cannot be determined, a best estimate of the selling price is required to separate deliverables and allocate arrangement consideration using the relative selling price method. The new guidance includes new disclosure requirements on how the application of the relative selling price method affects the timing and amount of revenue recognition. The new guidance will become effective for Unify beginning May 1, 2011, with earlier adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this guidance.
 
In May 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance for the accounting and reporting of subsequent events that occur between the balance sheet date and issuance of financial statements. Issuers are required to recognize the effects, if material, of subsequent events in the financial statements if the subsequent event provides additional evidence about conditions that existed as of the balance sheet date. The issuer must also disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated and the nature of any nonrecognized subsequent events. This guidance became effective for financial reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. We adopted this guidance in fiscal 2010.
 
In September 2006, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on fair value measurements. This guidance defines fair value, establishes a framework and gives guidance regarding the methods used for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and it did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on  business combinations. The standard changes the accounting for business combinations including the measurement of acquirer shares issued in consideration for a business combination, the recognition of contingent consideration, the accounting for pre-acquisition gain and loss contingencies, the recognition of capitalized in-process research and development, the accounting for acquisition-related restructuring cost accruals, the treatment of acquisition related transaction costs and the recognition of changes in the acquirer’s income tax valuation allowance. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, with early adoption prohibited. We have accounted for the acquisition of AXS-One Inc. in June 2009 under this guidance. See Note 2.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on noncontrolling interests in consolidated financial Statements. The guidance changes the accounting and reporting for minority interests. Minority interests will be recharacterized as noncontrolling interests and will be reported as a component of equity separate from the parent’s equity, and purchases or sales of equity interests that do not result in a change in control will be accounted for as equity transactions. In addition, net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest will be included in net income and, upon a loss of control, the interest sold, as well as any interest retained, will be recorded at fair value with any gain or loss recognized in net income. The guidance was effective for us beginning May 1, 2009. We adopted the guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and it did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
 
F-13
 

 

In March 2008, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities. This guidance requires enhanced disclosures about an entity’s derivative instruments and hedging activities with a view toward improving the transparency of financial reporting, and is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The guidance encourages, but does not require, comparative disclosures for earlier periods at initial adoption. We have adopted the guidance and it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In May 2008, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on accounting for convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion (including partial cash settlement). This guidance requires issuers of convertible debt that may be settled wholly or partly in cash when converted to account for the debt and equity components separately. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and must be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. We adopted the guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and it did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In April 2008, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on the determining the useful life of intangible assets. This guidance amends the factors that should be considered in developing the renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset. It also requires expanded disclosure related to the determination of intangible asset useful lives. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We adopted the guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and it did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
 
Note 2. Acquisitions
 
Active Data Corporation
 
On May 22, 2007, the Company purchased privately held Active Data Corporation (“ADC”) for approximately $420,000 plus earn-out payments of $97,000. ADC provided application migration software that added Microsoft’s .NET functionality to Unify’s Team Developer product and provided an additional application migration solution for the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreement, Unify acquired all the outstanding stock of ADC. ADC did not represent the addition of a significant subsidiary. The acquisition of ADC did not have a material impact on the financials of Unify and the results of operations for ADC are included in the Company’s results from the date of acquisition. The ADC purchase price was allocated to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on management’s determination of their estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired was allocated to goodwill. The Company believes the fair values assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were based on reasonable assumptions.
 
CipherSoft Inc.
 
On January 30, 2009, the Company purchased privately held CipherSoft Inc. (“CipherSoft”), headquartered in Calgary, Canada, for approximately $628,000 plus the assumption of debt of $1,032,000 and future potential royalty payments to be paid over a four year period following the acquisition. The royalty payments are based on a percentage of revenue and will increase goodwill upon being earned. As of April 30, 2010, royalty payments earned totaled $135,000. CipherSoft is a leading Oracle partner for modernization and migration of Oracle applications and provides an additional application migration solution for the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreement, Unify acquired all the outstanding stock of CipherSoft. CipherSoft did not represent the addition of a significant subsidiary.
 
F-14
 

 
 
The CipherSoft purchase price was allocated to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on management’s determination of their estimated fair values at the acquisition date, January 30, 2009. Intangible assets include technologies of $1,060,000, non-competition agreements of $85,000, consulting agreements of $110,000 and trade names of $80,000. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired was allocated to goodwill. The Company believes the fair values assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were based on reasonable assumptions. The following table summarizes the fair values of net assets acquired and represents the opening balance sheet for CipherSoft as of the acquisition date, January 30, 2009 (in thousands):

Current assets $ 236
Long term assets   22
Goodwill   780
Intangibles   1,335
       Total assets $      2,373
 
Current Liabilities $ 1,099
Long term liabilities   646
       Total liabilities assumed $ 1,745
 
       Total consideration $ 628
     
AXS-One Inc.
 
On June 30, 2009, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock and warrants of AXS-One. The common stock and warrants were converted into, in the aggregate, 1,000,000 shares of Unify common stock. The outstanding convertible notes of AXS-One with an aggregate outstanding principal and interest balance of approximately $13 million were exchanged for 1,642,600 shares of Unify common stock. The note holders may also be issued additional shares of Unify common stock based on revenue generated from AXS-One’s products over 13 months after the effective date of the merger.
 
AXS-One is a leading provider of integrated content archiving software solutions which enables organizations to implement secure, scalable and enforceable policies that address records management for corporate governance, legal discovery and industry regulations. The acquisition of AXS-One advances the Company’s growth strategy to acquire superior technology companies that can leverage its technology strengths, extensive customer base and worldwide distribution channel while enabling the combined company to meet a broader set of customers’ needs, accelerate direct and channel sales, and achieve cost synergies.
 
The goodwill of $9.1 million arising from the acquisition consists of increased market presence and opportunities, enhanced product mix and operating efficiencies expected from combining the operations of Unify and AXS-One. All of the goodwill was assigned to Unify’s Integrated Content Archiving Solutions segment. None of the goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

The following table summarizes the consideration paid for AXS-One and the amounts of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed recognized at the acquisition date, June 30, 2009 (in thousands):

Consideration      
Equity instruments (2,642,600 common shares of Unify) $ 8,853  
Contingent consideration arrangement   1,499  
Fair value of total consideration $ 10,352  
 
Recognized amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed      
Financial assets $ 117  
Accounts receivable   561  
Other assets   640  
Property, plant and equipment   132  
Identifiable intangible assets   8,065  
Financial liabilities   (5,772 )
Deferred revenue   (2,493 )
Total identifiable net assets $ 1,250  
Goodwill   9,102  
  $      10,352  
 
Acquisition related costs (included in selling, general and administrative expense in Unify's      
statement of operations for the year ended April 30, 2010) $ 611  
       
The fair value of the 2,642,600 common shares issued as part of the consideration paid for AXS-One ($8,853,000) was determined on the basis of the closing market price of Unify’s common shares on the acquisition date.
 
The contingent consideration arrangement requires Unify to issue to the former holders of AXS-One convertible notes 0.35 shares of Unify common stock for every $1 of AXS-One net license revenue over the first $2,000,000 for the 13 month period following the acquisition date. After the holders of AXS-One convertible notes have received in the aggregate 2,580,000 Unify shares (as adjusted to reflect stock splits, stock dividends and reverse stock splits of Unify) under the earn-out, the shares issued as the earn-out shall be distributed one-half to the holders of AXS-One convertible notes and one-half to the former management members until the management members have received 171,250 Unify shares under the earn-out. Thereafter, any additional Unify shares issued as earn-out shall be distributed solely to the holders of AXS-One convertible notes. There is no limit to the total number of shares that can be earned. The estimated number of shares that Unify will issue under the contingent consideration arrangement is 451,000. The fair value of the contingent consideration of $1.5 million is based on management’s estimate of both expected net license revenue and share price.
 
Based on the receipt of a final valuation, acquisition date provisional values were adjusted to decrease contingent consideration by $3.3 million, decrease identifiable intangible assets by $2.0 million, increase deferred revenue by $0.4 million, increase financial liabilities $0.2, and decrease goodwill by $0.7 million. Intangible assets include technologies of $4.2 million, trademarks of $1.2 million, backlog of $0.1 million, and customer relationships of $2.6 million.

Acquired finite-lived intangibles are generally amortized on a straight line basis over their estimated useful life. The useful life of finite-lived intangibles is the period over which the asset is expected to contribute directly or indirectly to future cash flows of the Company. Intangible assets amortization expense for fiscal 2010 was $2,398,000. Amortization expense for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2009, was $809,000. The estimated future amortization expense related to intangible assets as of April 30, 2010, is as follows (in thousands):
 
Fiscal Year Ending April 30      Amount
2011   $ 2,265
2012     1,747

       Total   $      8,613
       
Goodwill at April 30, 2010, represents the excess of purchase prices of acquired companies over the sum of the amounts assigned to assets acquired less liabilities assumed. The Company believes these acquisitions will produce the following results:
 
F-18
 

 

  • Increased Market Presence and Opportunities: The addition of the acquired companies should increase the combined company’s market presence and opportunities for growth in sales and earnings.
     
  • Enhanced Product Mix: The complementary nature of the Company’s products with those of the acquired companies should benefit current customers and provide the combined company with the ability to access new customers.
     
  • Operating Efficiencies: The combination of the Company and the acquired companies provides the opportunity for potential economies of scale and cost savings.
The Company believes these primary factors support the amount of goodwill recognized as a result of the purchase price for companies it has acquired. Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis as of April 30, and between annual tests if indicators of potential impairment exist, using a fair-value-based approach. Based on our testing as of April 30, 2010, we do not believe goodwill is impaired and accordingly have made no adjustments to its carrying value.

Restricted Stock
 
On May 1, 2002, the Company established the 2002 Director Restricted Stock Plan (“Director Restricted Stock Plan”) as part of a compensation program designed to attract and retain independent members for our board of directors. The maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the Director Restricted Stock Plan is 100,000. There were no shares awarded under the plan in fiscal 2010 or fiscal 2009 leaving a balance of 3,862 shares reserved for future awards at April 30, 2010.
 
Private Placement
 
On April 23, 2004, the Company issued through a private placement 1,126,780 shares of common stock to a group of institutional investors at a price of $3.55 per share and 5-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 450,712 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $4.50 per share. Net proceeds from the private placement were $3,696,000, net of estimated accrued costs of $304,000. The Company’s actual costs for the private placement were $397,000 which resulted in a further reduction of additional paid-in-capital of $93,000 during fiscal 2005. The warrants were subject to an anti-dilution provision such that future stock issuances would cause an adjustment to the number of warrants.
 
As a result of issuances of additional common stock the number of warrant shares purchasable as of April 30, 2009 was increased to 491,792. On April 24, 2009, the warrant agreement was amended and the exercise price was reduced to $2.50 per share as an inducement to have the warrant holder exercise the warrants. On April 24, 2009, 475,456 of the warrants were exercised at $2.50 per share and the remaining 16,336 warrants expired. Further, in consideration of the exercise of the warrants, the Company granted an additional 190,182 warrants at an exercise price of $2.75 per share. Under certain circumstances, where the closing bid price of a share of common stock equals or exceeds $5.50, appropriately adjusted for any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend or other reclassification or combination of common stock, for 20 consecutive trading days commencing after the registration statement covering the warrants shares has been declared effective, the Company, upon 20 days’ prior written notice to the warrant holders within one business day immediately following the end of such 20 day trading period, may call the warrants for 25% of the shares of the common stock initially purchasable pursuant to the warrants at a redemption price equal to $0.01 per share of common stock then purchasable pursuant to the warrants. If the call conditions are met again during the 30 day period immediately after consummation of a previous call, the Company may once again call the warrants for an additional increment of 25% of the shares of common stock initially purchasable pursuant to the warrants or such less amount as shall then remain purchasable and in the same manner and subject to the same notice requirements as the initial call, until all of the shares have been called.

Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon future earnings, the timing and amount of which are uncertain. Accordingly, the Company has maintained a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets in all the tax jurisdictions except Canada. The valuation allowance increased by $3.0 million in fiscal 2010, decreased by $1.2 million in fiscal 2009 and increased by $298,000 in fiscal 2008.
 
At April 30, 2010, the Company had approximately $37.4 million in federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards that begin to expire in fiscal year 2011 through 2029, approximately $5.2 million in state net operating loss carryforwards that expire in fiscal years 2014 to 2031, and approximately $1.2 million in foreign net operating loss carryforwards that do not expire. The Company’s ability to utilize these net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to certain limitations in the event of a change in ownership. In addition, the Company had approximately $9.2 million acquired federal NOLs through a business combination during fiscal year 2010 that begin to expire in fiscal year 2027 though 2029, approximately $13.7 million acquired state NOL that expire in fiscal years 2017 to 2031 and approximately $5.2 million acquired foreign NOL that do not expire. At April 30, 2010, the Company also had approximately $5.1 million federal capital loss carryforward and $9.1 million California capital loss carryforward, respectively, which expires beginning in fiscal year 2013 for federal tax purpose and will not expire for State of California.
 
Tax Positions
 
The Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority.
 
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows (in thousands):
 
  Year ended     Year ended
  April 30, 2010     April 30, 2009
Beginning balance $ 67     $ -
Gross increases - tax positions in current period   -       67
Gross decreases - tax positions in prior period   -       -
Gross increases - tax positions in prior period   7       -
Decreases relating to settlements   -       -
Reductions as a result of a lapse of statute of limitations   -       -
Ending balance $ 74     $ 67

F-24
 

 

If recognized, $74,000 of the total unrecognized tax benefits would be recorded as a reduction in income tax expense. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. As of April 30, 2010, the Company did not have material interest or penalties associated with any unrecognized tax benefits. We do not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly increase or decrease within the next twelve months.
 
The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various states and foreign jurisdictions. Tax regulations within each jurisdiction are subject to the interpretation of the related tax laws and regulations and require significant judgment to apply. In general, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for the fiscal years before 2005.
 
Note 11. Other Income (Expenses)
 
Other income (expenses), net for the years ended April 30, consisted of the following (in thousands):
 
  2010        2009        2008
Interest income $       5     $       20     $       12  
Foreign currency exchange gain (loss)   (78 )     (205 )     146  
Other   59       61       (28 )
       Other income (expenses), net $ (14 )   $ (124 )   $ 130  
                       
Note 12. Comprehensive Income (Loss)
 
Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income (loss) and net foreign currency translation adjustments. A comprehensive gain (loss) on foreign currency translations for years ended April 30, 2010, 2009, and 2008 was $496,000 and ($232,000), and $76,000 respectively.
 
Note 13. Earnings (Loss) per Share
 
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that it reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities or other obligations to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. For fiscal 2010, because of our reported net loss, potentially dilutive securities of 491,000 were excluded from the per share computations due to their antidilutive effect.
 
(in thousands, except per share amounts) Year Ended April 30,
  2010        2009        2008
Net income (loss) $       (1,777 )   $       2,390   $       1,631
 
Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding, basic   9,691       6,991     6,423
Effect of dilutive securities (stock options)   -       591     682
Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding, diluted $ 9,691     $ 7,582   $ 7,105
 
Earnings (loss) per share of common stock:                  
       Basic $ (0.18 )   $ 0.34   $ 0.25
       Diluted $ (0.18 )   $ 0.32   $ 0.23

F-25
 

 

The dilutive securities above represent only those stock options, warrants and convertible debt whose exercise prices were less than the average market price of the stock during the respective periods and therefore were dilutive. The number of shares of stock options excluded from the above amounts because their exercise prices exceeded the average market price of the stock during the respective periods was 548,006 in fiscal 2010, 584,688 in fiscal 2009, and 85,319 in fiscal 2008. The number of shares of common stock warrants excluded from the above amounts because their exercise prices exceeded the average market price of the stock during the respective periods was none in fiscal 2010, fiscal 2009, and fiscal 2008.
 
Note 14. Related Party Transactions
 
The Company had an ownership interest in Unify Japan KK which was less than 15%. In April 2008, we wrote off our investment in Unify Japan of $39,000 based on our assessment that there was a permanent decline in value for this investment. Unify Japan KK is a Japanese corporation that is a master distributor for the Company in Japan. Sales to Unify Japan KK in fiscal 2010, 2009, and 2008 were $0.3 million, $0.2 million, and $0.2 million, respectively. Accounts receivable from Unify Japan KK as of April 30, 2010 and 2009 were $35,000 and $13,000, respectively. The Company records an investment impairment charge if and when the Company believes an investment has experienced a decline in market value that is other than temporary. Several factors can trigger an impairment review such as significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results and significant negative industry or economic trends. In assessing potential impairment for such investments, we consider these factors as well as the forecasted financial performance.
 
Note 15. Employee Retirement Plan
 
The Company maintains a 401(k) profit sharing plan (the “401(k) Plan”). Eligible employees may contribute up to 100% of their pre-tax annual compensation to the 401(k) Plan, subject to certain statutory limitations. The Company can, at its discretion, voluntarily match the participating employees’ contributions not to exceed 6% of each employee’s annual compensation. In fiscal years 2010, 2009 and 2008, the Company contributed $196,000, $140,000 and $114,000, respectively, to the 401(k) Plan.
 
Note 16. Commitments and Contingencies
 
Operating Leases
 
The Company leases office space and equipment under non-cancelable operating lease arrangements expiring at various dates through fiscal 2014. Future minimum rental payments under these leases as of April 30, 2010 are as follows (in thousands):
 
Years Ending April 30,    
2011 $       1,295
2012   1,054
2013   546
2014   551
Thereafter   -
  $ 3,446
     
Rent expense under operating leases was $927,800, $667,200 and $1,095,500 for the years ended April 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
 
Litigation
 
The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the normal course of business. If such matters arise, the Company cannot assure that it would prevail in such matters, nor can it assure that any remedy could be reached on mutually agreeable terms, if at all. Due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation, were there any such matters, the Company would not be able to accurately predict their ultimate outcome. As of April 30, 2010, there were no current proceedings or litigation involving the Company that management believes would have a material adverse impact on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Note 17. Segment Information
 
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Our chief operating decision maker is our Chief Executive Officer. We have evaluated our approach for making operating decisions and assessing the performance of our business and, beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010, we have determined that we have three reportable segments: Database and Development Products (“DDP”), Integrated Content Archiving Solutions and Modernization and Migration Solutions. Prior to the first quarter of fiscal year 2010, the Company maintained two reportable segments, Database and Development Products and Modernization and Migration Solutions. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1. We evaluate performance based on gross margins (total revenues less costs of licenses, services and migration solutions) before operating costs. We do not manage our operating costs on a segment basis as many of our sales, marketing and support personnel regularly work with products from all segments. Additionally, we do not track assets by segment and therefore asset disclosures by segment are not relevant and are not presented.
 
For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010 and 2009, total revenue from the United States was $5.0 million and $1.6 million, respectively. Total revenue from all other countries was $3.4 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010 and $3.1 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009. Total long-lived assets as of April 30, 2010 and 2009, for the United States, were $26.4 million and $9.6 million, respectively. Total long-lived assets in all other countries were $2.0 million as of April 30, 2010 and $68,000 as of April 30, 2009.

Note 19. Subsequent Event
 
On June 29, 2010, the Company purchased Strategic Office Solutions, Inc., dba Daegis, for approximately $37.5 million. Payment was made in the form of $24.0 million in cash, $7.3 million in equity, and $6.2 million in convertible notes. The Company issued 2,085,714 shares of Unify common stock to the former owners of Daegis at $3.50 per share for a total of $7.3 million. The notes consisted of a $5.0 million convertible note and a $1.2 million escrow note. Under the terms of the convertible note the Company will incur interest at 8% per annum. Upon shareholder approval to issue additional shares in conjunction with this acquisition, the note will automatically convert to 1,428,571 shares of Unify common stock. Under the terms of the escrow note the Company will incur interest at 3% per annum for the first eighteen months and 8% per annum thereafter. Upon shareholder approval the escrow note will convert into 342,857 shares of Unify common stock 18 months after the date of closing.
 
F-29
 

 

To finance the cash portion of the acquisition of Daegis and provide working capital, the Company entered into a new Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement with Hercules Technology (the “Hercules Loan Agreement”) on June 29, 2010. The Hercules Loan Agreement consists of a term note and a revolving credit note agreement. The term note is for $24.0 million payable over five years with escalating principal payments of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 50% annually. The Company incurs interest at the prevailing LIBOR rate plus 8.25% per annum with a minimum rate of 10.25% (10.25% at the date of closing) plus 2% interest to be paid in kind. Under the terms of the revolver the Company can borrow up to $6.0 million. The amount that can be borrowed under the revolver is based on the amount of eligible accounts receivable outstanding. The Company incurs interest expense on funds borrowed at the prevailing LIBOR rate plus 7.25% per annum with a minimum rate of 9.25% (9.25% at the date of closing). The additional proceeds from the Hercules Loan Agreement were used to pay the remaining balance of the ComVest Term Loan and Revolver in full (see Note 6). In conjunction with the Hercules Loan Agreement, we issued 718,860 warrants which are exercisable at $3.30 per share.
 
Disclosure of the acquisition-date fair value of the consideration given, fair-value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, intangible asset classifications, and pro-forma information is not included in this note. Due to the timing of the acquisition, the initial accounting for the business combination was incomplete at the time the financial statements were issued and the above mentioned information was unavailable.

To the Board of Directors
Strategic Office Solutions, Inc. dba Daegis
 
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Strategic Office Solutions, Inc. dba Daegis (a California corporation) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related statements of income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America as established by the Auditing Standards Board of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Strategic Office Solutions, Inc. dba Daegis as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
December 31, 2009 and 2008
 
NOTE A - ORGANIZATION
 
     
Strategic Office Solutions, Inc., an S-Corporation, was incorporated in 1999 to operate as a service bureau, providing time-sensitive document management services and finding cost-effective means by which their customers can meet their information management needs. The Company is headquartered in San Francisco, California, and principally provides litigation support services for attorneys and large corporations. As of August 21, 2006, Strategic Office Solutions, Inc. began doing business as Daegis.
 
NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
     
1. Basis of Accounting
 
The Company’s financial records are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized in the accounting period in which they are earned and become measurable; and expenses are recognized in the period incurred.
   
 
2. Revenue Recognition
 
The Company recognizes revenue as services are performed.
 
Various states impose a sales tax of 5.0% to 9.5% on all sales to in-state consumers. The Company collects that sales tax from customers and remits it to the various states. The Company’s accounting policy is to exclude the tax collected and remitted to the states from revenues and operating expenses.
    
 
3. Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all short-term investments with original maturities of ninety days or less to be cash equivalents.
    
 
4. Accounts Receivable
 
The majority of the Company’s accounts receivable are due from law firms or companies involved in litigation. The Company does not require collateral from its customers to secure accounts receivable and generally requires payment in thirty days. The Company evaluates the collectability of its accounts receivable and writes off any amounts that are determined to be uncollectible.
   
 
5. Property and Depreciation
 
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line and declining-balance methods over estimated useful lives of three to seven years.
   
 
6. Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
 
The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets in accordance with accounting guidance requiring recognition of impairment of long-lived assets in the event the net book value of such assets exceeds the future undiscounted cash flows attributable to such assets. Accordingly, the Company evaluates asset recoverability at each balance sheet date or when an event occurs that may impair recoverability of an asset. No impairment was recorded in 2009 or 2008.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued
 
     
7. Advertising Costs
 
The Company’s policy is to expense advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expenses for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 were $74,146 and $80,646, respectively.
    
 
8. Compensated Absences
 
It is the Company’s policy to permit employees to accumulate earned but unused vacation, which will be paid to employees upon separation from the Company’s service. The cost of vacation is recorded in the period earned.
   
 
9. Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
   
 
10. Income Taxes
 
The Company elected to be taxed as an S-Corporation as of May 7, 1999. Income tax effects resulting from the Company’s operations pass through to the stockholders; and accordingly, no provision for income taxes is included in the financial statements. It is the Company’s policy to declare and pay dividends to its stockholders to assist them in funding their income tax payments as a result of the S-Corporation election.
 
On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted accounting guidance related to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, which required the recognition of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return when it is “more likely than not” to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. This assessment assumes that tax authorities evaluate the technical merits of transactions individually with full knowledge of all facts and circumstances surrounding the issue. A recognized tax position is recorded in the financial statements at the largest amount of benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon settlement with the relevant tax authority. Changes in judgment resulting in subsequent recognition, de-recognition, or adjusted measurement of a tax position taken in a prior annual period, including any related interest and penalties, are recognized as discrete items during the period in which the change occurs.
 
The adoption of the new accounting guidance related to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes did not have an impact on the financial statements, as all position taken on prior year income tax returns were deemed highly certain. The Company did not have a liability for unrecognized tax benefits upon adoption of the guidance or as of December 31, 2009.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued
 
     
10. Income Taxes - Continued
 
The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits. As of December 31, 2009, the Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits; therefore, the Company did not have any interest or penalties expense related to unrecognized tax benefits for the year ended December 31, 2009. The Company is unaware of information concerning any tax positions for which a material change in the unrecognized tax benefit or liability is reasonably possible within the next twelve months. The Company files income tax returns in the United States. The Company is no longer subject to United States federal income tax examinations for years before 2006. The Company files federal and various state income tax returns and is no longer subject to federal income tax examinations for years before 2006 or state income tax examinations for years before 2005.
   
 
11. Concentration of Credit Risk
 
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk, consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable.
 
The Company maintains, at times, a cash balance at a single financial institution in excess of the $250,000 limit insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
 
The Company considers accounts receivable to be fully collectible, and no allowance for bad debts has been recorded.
 
As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, 58% of accounts receivable was due from three customers, and 57% of accounts receivable was due from four customers, respectively.
 
For the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, sales to two customers comprised 52%, and sales to three customers comprised 39% of sales revenue, respectively.
    
  12. Recently Issued Accounting Standards
 
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) has established the Accounting Standards CodificationTM (“Codification” or “ASC”) as the single source of authoritative GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by non-governmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification has become non-authoritative. The FASB will not issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates, which will serve to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the basis for conclusions on the changes to the Codification. GAAP is not intended to be changed as a result of the FASB’s Codification project, but it will change the way the guidance is organized and presented. As a result, these changes will have a significant impact on how companies reference GAAP in their financial statements and in their accounting policies for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Company has implemented the Codification in this Annual Report by providing a plain English approach when describing any new or updated authoritative guidance.

12. Recently Issued Accounting Standards - Continued
 
In May 2009, the FASB issued general standards for the accounting and reporting of subsequent events that occur between the balance sheet date and issuance of financial statements. Issuers will be required to recognize the effects, if material, of subsequent events in the financial statements if the subsequent event provides additional evidence about conditions that existed as of the balance sheet date. The issuer must also disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated and the nature of any nonrecognized subsequent events. Nonrecognized subsequent events include events that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist as of the balance sheet date, but which are of such a nature that they must be disclosed to keep the financial statements from being misleading. These new standards became effective for financial reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption has had no material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company evaluated subsequent events through June 8, 2010, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

  $ 3,401,237
     
NOTE G - STOCK OPTIONS
 
     
The Company adopted a stock option plan in 2001. Effective February 1, 2008, the Company amended the plan to increase the shares of common stock reserved from 5,650,000 to 8,750,000 shares. The Company may issue incentive stock options to officers, directors, and key employees as defined under current tax laws and non-qualified stock options to non-employees of the Company. The option price, number of shares, and grant date are determined at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors. Currently, options for approximately 8.1 million shares of common stock have been issued under this plan. The options are either exercisable in two equal installments, with the first installment becoming exercisable on the date of the grant of the options, or they are fully exercisable on the date of the grant of the options. The options have expiration dates of five and ten years from the dates of the grant of the options. Accounting guidance related to Share-Based Payment requires stock option plans to be accounted for using the Fair-Value-Based Method.
 
Under the accounting guidance, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized over the stated vesting period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock-based compensation at the date of grant, which requires the use of accounting judgment and financial estimates. The expected life of the options used in this calculation is the period of time the options are expected to be outstanding, and is determined by the simplified method which states, “The midpoint of the average vesting period and contractual life is an acceptable expected life assumption.” Expected stock volatility is based on the median historical volatility of comparable guideline public companies. Expected option exercises, the period of time the options are held, forfeitures, employee terminations and other criteria are based on previous experiences. The risk-free rates for periods within the contractual life of the options are based on United States Treasury Note rates in effect at the time of the grant for the period equal to the expected life. Application of alternative assumptions could produce significantly different estimates of the fair value of stock-based compensation and consequently, the related amounts recognized in the Statements of Income. In December 2007, accounting guidance was issued which extends the use of the “simplified” method for those companies that conclude that it is not reasonable to base its estimate of expected life of options on its historical share option exercise experience. The Company uses the “simplified” method for all estimations of stock option compensation expense due to insufficient historical exercise data and changes in the terms of the share option grants.

NOTE G - STOCK OPTIONS - Continued
 
     
These amounts were determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which values options based on the stock price at the grant date, the expected life of the option, the estimated volatility of the stock, the expected dividend payments, and the risk-free interest rate over the expected life of the option. There were no stock options granted in 2009. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model for the year ended December 31, 2008 was as follows:
 
Risk-free interest rate 1.65%
        Dividend yield 0.00%
        Volatility factor 40.00%
Expected life (in years) 3

     
A summary of the activity under the stock option plan and related information is presented below:

As of December 31, 2009, the total compensation cost related to unvested stock-based awards granted to employees under the Company’s stock option plan but not yet recognized was $13,780. This cost will be amortized during the year ended December 31, 2010. If all stock options were exercised, there would be no significant change in ownership percentages to the majority shareholders.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
March 31, 2010
 
NOTE A - ORGANIZATION
 
Strategic Office Solutions, Inc., an S-Corporation, was incorporated in 1999 to operate as a service bureau, providing time-sensitive document management services and finding cost-effective means by which their customers can meet their information management needs. The Company is headquartered in San Francisco, California, and principally provides litigation support services for attorneys and large corporations. As of August 21, 2006, Strategic Office Solutions, Inc. began doing business as Daegis.
 
NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
1. Basis of Accounting
 
The Company’s financial records are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized in the accounting period in which they are earned and become measurable; and expenses are recognized in the period incurred.
 
2. Revenue Recognition
 
The Company recognizes revenue as services are performed.
 
Various states impose a sales tax of 5.0% to 9.5% on all sales to in-state consumers. The Company collects that sales tax from customers and remits it to the various states. The Company’s accounting policy is to exclude the tax collected and remitted to the states from revenues and operating expenses.
 
3. Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all short-term investments with original maturities of ninety days or less to be cash equivalents.
 
4. Accounts Receivable
 
The majority of the Company’s accounts receivable are due from law firms or companies involved in litigation. The Company does not require collateral from its customers to secure accounts receivable and generally requires payment in thirty days. The Company evaluates the collectability of its accounts receivable and writes off any amounts that are determined to be uncollectible.
 
5. Property and Depreciation
 
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line and declining-balance methods over estimated useful lives of three to seven years.
 
6. Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
 
The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets in accordance with accounting guidance requiring recognition of impairment of long-lived assets in the event the net book value of such assets exceeds the future undiscounted cash flows attributable to such assets. Accordingly, the Company evaluates asset recoverability at each balance sheet date or when an event occurs that may impair recoverability of an asset. No impairment was recorded in 2010 or 2009.

7. Advertising Costs
 
The Company’s policy is to expense advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expenses for the three month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 were $11,125 and $27,317, respectively.
 
8. Compensated Absences
 
It is the Company’s policy to permit employees to accumulate earned but unused vacation, which will be paid to employees upon separation from the Company’s service. The cost of vacation is recorded in the period earned.
 
9. Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
10. Income Taxes
 
The Company elected to be taxed as an S-Corporation as of May 7, 1999. Income tax effects resulting from the Company’s operations pass through to the stockholders; and accordingly, no provision for income taxes is included in the financial statements. It is the Company’s policy to declare and pay dividends to its stockholders to assist them in funding their income tax payments as a result of the S-Corporation election.
 
On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted accounting guidance related to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, which required the recognition of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return when it is “more likely than not” to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. This assessment assumes that tax authorities evaluate the technical merits of transactions individually with full knowledge of all facts and circumstances surrounding the issue. A recognized tax position is recorded in the financial statements at the largest amount of benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon settlement with the relevant tax authority. Changes in judgment resulting in subsequent recognition, de-recognition, or adjusted measurement of a tax position taken in a prior annual period, including any related interest and penalties, are recognized as discrete items during the period in which the change occurs.
 
The adoption of the new accounting guidance related to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes did not have an impact on the financial statements, as all position taken on prior year income tax returns were deemed highly certain. The Company did not have a liability for unrecognized tax benefits upon adoption of the guidance or as of March 31, 2010.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued
 
10. Income Taxes - Continued
 
The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits. As of March 31, 2010, the Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits; therefore, the Company did not have any interest or penalties expense related to unrecognized tax benefits for three months ended March 31, 2010. The Company is unaware of information concerning any tax positions for which a material change in the unrecognized tax benefit or liability is reasonably possible within the next twelve months. The Company files income tax returns in the United States. The Company is no longer subject to United States federal income tax examinations for years before 2006. The Company files federal and various state income tax returns and is no longer subject to federal income tax examinations for years before 2006 or state income tax examinations for years before 2005.
 
11. Concentration of Credit Risk
 
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk, consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable.
 
The Company maintains, at times, a cash balance at a single financial institution in excess of the $250,000 limit insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
 
The Company considers accounts receivable to be fully collectible, and no allowance for bad debts has been recorded.
 
As of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, 51% of accounts receivable was due from four customers, and 58% of accounts receivable was due from three customers, respectively.
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, sales to two customers comprised 50%, and sales to six customers comprised 70% of sales revenue, respectively.
 
12. Recently Issued Accounting Standards
 
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) has established the Accounting Standards CodificationTM (“Codification” or “ASC”) as the single source of authoritative GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by non-governmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification has become non-authoritative. The FASB will not issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates, which will serve to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the basis for conclusions on the changes to the Codification. GAAP is not intended to be changed as a result of the FASB’s Codification project, but it will change the way the guidance is organized and presented. As a result, these changes will have a significant impact on how companies reference GAAP in their financial statements and in their accounting policies for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Company has implemented the Codification in these financial statements by providing a plain English approach when describing any new or updated authoritative guidance.

12. Recently Issued Accounting Standards - Continued
 
In May 2009, the FASB issued general standards for the accounting and reporting of subsequent events that occur between the balance sheet date and issuance of financial statements. Issuers will be required to recognize the effects, if material, of subsequent events in the financial statements if the subsequent event provides additional evidence about conditions that existed as of the balance sheet date. The issuer must also disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated and the nature of any non-recognized subsequent events. Non-recognized subsequent events include events that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist as of the balance sheet date, but which are of such a nature that they must be disclosed to keep the financial statements from being misleading. These new standards became effective for financial reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption has had no material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company evaluated subsequent events through September 7, 2010, the date the financial statements were issued.

NOTE F - STOCK OPTIONS
 
The Company adopted a stock option plan in 2001. Effective February 1, 2008, the Company amended the plan to increase the shares of common stock reserved from 5,650,000 to 8,750,000 shares. The Company may issue incentive stock options to officers, directors, and key employees as defined under current tax laws and non-qualified stock options to non-employees of the Company. The option price, number of shares, and grant date are determined at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors. Currently, options for approximately 8.1 million shares of common stock have been issued under this plan. The options are either exercisable in two equal installments, with the first installment becoming exercisable on the date of the grant of the options, or they are fully exercisable on the date of the grant of the options. The options have expiration dates of five and ten years from the dates of the grant of the options. Accounting guidance related to Share-Based Payment requires stock option plans to be accounted for using the Fair-Value-Based Method.
 
Under the accounting guidance, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized over the stated vesting period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock-based compensation at the date of grant, which requires the use of accounting judgment and financial estimates. The expected life of the options used in this calculation is the period of time the options are expected to be outstanding, and is determined by the simplified method which states, “The midpoint of the average vesting period and contractual life is an acceptable expected life assumption.” Expected stock volatility is based on the median historical volatility of comparable guideline public companies. Expected option exercises, the period of time the options are held, forfeitures, employee terminations and other criteria are based on previous experiences. The risk-free rates for periods within the contractual life of the options are based on United States Treasury Note rates in effect at the time of the grant for the period equal to the expected life. Application of alternative assumptions could produce significantly different estimates of the fair value of stock-based compensation and consequently, the related amounts recognized in the Statements of Income. In December 2007, accounting guidance was issued which extends the use of the “simplified” method for those companies that conclude that it is not reasonable to base its estimate of expected life of options on its historical share option exercise experience. The Company uses the “simplified” method for all estimations of stock option compensation expense due to insufficient historical exercise data and changes in the terms of the share option grants.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
 
     We are organized under the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) which empowers Delaware corporations to indemnify any director or officer, or former director or officer, who was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation), by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided that such director or officer acted in good faith in a manner reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, provided further that such director or officer has no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
 
     The DGCL also empowers Delaware corporations to provide similar indemnity to any director or officer, or former director or officer, for expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of actions or suits by or in the right of the corporation if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the interests of the corporation, except in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such director or officer shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability, but in view of all of the circumstances of the case, such director or officer is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.
 
     The DGCL further provides that (i) to the extent a present or former director or officer of a corporation has been successful in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding described above or in the defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith; and (ii) indemnification and advancement of expenses provided for, by, or granted pursuant to the DGCL shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the indemnified party may be entitled.
 
     The DGCL permits a Delaware corporation to purchase and maintain, on behalf of any director or officer, insurance against liabilities incurred in such capacities. The DGCL also permits a corporation to pay expenses incurred by a director or officer in advance of the final disposition of an action, suit or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by the director or officer to repay such amount if it is determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification.
 
     The DGCL further permits a corporation, in its original certificate of incorporation or an amendment thereto, to eliminate or limit the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for violations of the director’s fiduciary duty except: (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) pursuant to Section 174 of the DGCL (providing for liability of directors for unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock purchases or redemptions) or (iv) for any transaction from which a director derived an improper personal benefit.
 
II-1
 

 

     Our Certificate of Incorporation eliminates a director’s personal liability to the Company or its stockholders for any monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for any breach of such director’s duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or (iv) for any transaction from which such director derived an improper benefit.
 
     Our Certificate of Incorporation also provides that the Company shall indemnify to the full extent authorized by law any person, testator or intestate made or threatened to be made a party to an action or proceeding, whether criminal, civil, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of the Company or any predecessor of the Company or serves or served any other enterprise as a director or officer at the request of the Company or any predecessor of the Company.
 
     Furthermore, the Certificate of Incorporation provides that neither any amendment nor repeal of the provisions providing for indemnification or elimination of personal liability under the Certificate of Incorporation nor the adoption of any provision inconsistent with such provisions shall eliminate or reduce the effect of the right of indemnification or elimination of personal liability provided under the Certificate of Incorporation in respect of any matter occurring, or any cause of action, suit or claim accruing or arising prior to such amendment, repeal or adoption of an inconsistent provision.
 
     Our Bylaws provide that the Company, to the maximum extent permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, including, without limitation, to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (as that Section may be amended and supplemented from time to time), indemnify any director, officer or trustee which it shall have power to indemnify under Section 145 against any expenses, liabilities or other matters referred to in or covered by that Section. The Bylaws further provide that such indemnification (i) shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under any Bylaw, agreement or vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in their official capacities and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, (ii) shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer or trustee and (iii) shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person. Pursuant to the Bylaws the Company’s obligation to provide indemnification under the Bylaws shall be offset to the extent of any other source of indemnification or any otherwise applicable insurance coverage under a policy maintained by the Company or any other person.
 
     Additionally, the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws, respectively, also provide that the Company shall pay expenses incurred by an officer or director in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized in the Certificate of Incorporation or the relevant section of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, respectively.
 
ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
 
     On April 24, 2009, the Company issued to Special Situations Funds warrants to purchase up to 190,182 shares of Unify’s common stock, in exchange for Special Situations Funds’ agreement to exercise certain previously issued warrants for cash. The April 2009 warrants have an exercise price of $2.75 per share. Under certain circumstances, where the closing bid price of a share of common stock equals or exceeds $5.50, appropriately adjusted for any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend or other reclassification or combination of common stock, for 20 consecutive trading days commencing after the registration statement covering the warrants shares has been declared effective, the Company, upon 20 days’ prior written notice to the warrant holders within one business day immediately following the end of such 20 day trading period, may call the warrants for 25% of the shares of the common stock initially purchasable pursuant to the warrants at a redemption price equal to $0.01 per share of common stock then purchasable pursuant to the warrants. If the call conditions are met again during the 30 day period immediately after consummation of a previous call, the Company may once again call the warrants for an additional increment of 25% of the shares of common stock initially purchasable pursuant to the warrants or such less amount as shall then remain purchasable and in the same manner and subject to the same notice requirements as the initial call, until all of the shares have been called.
 
      The warrants are exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder as the security was offered or sold fewer than 35 purchasers and no form of general solicitation was used in the offer.

      On June 29, 2010, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Strategic Office Solutions, Inc., (Daegis”), for approximately $37.5 million. Payment was made in the form of $24.0 million in cash, $7.3 million in equity, and $6.2 million in convertible notes pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger by and among Unify, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Unify, Daegis, and the former shareholders of Daegis (the Merger Agreement”). The Company issued 2,085,714 shares of Unify common stock to the former owners of Daegis at $3.50 per share for a total of $7.3 million. The notes consisted of $5.0 million convertible notes and a $1.2 million escrow note. Under the terms of the convertible note the Company will incur interest at 8% per annum. Upon shareholder approval to issue additional shares in conjunction with this acquisition, the note will automatically convert to 1,428,571 shares of Unify common stock. The Company converted the notes on September 1, 2010 into 1,793,278 shares Unify common stock at a conversion price of $3.50 per share.  The shares issued upon the conversion of the escrow note are subject to offset for certain indemnity claims for 18 months after the date of closing.
 
      To finance the cash portion of the acquisition of Daegis and provide working capital, the Company entered into a new Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement with Hercules Technology (the “Hercules Loan Agreement”) on June 29, 2010. The Hercules Loan Agreement consists of a term note and a revolving credit note agreement. The term note is for $24.0 million payable over five years with escalating principal payments of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 50% annually. The Company incurs interest at the prevailing LIBOR rate plus 8.25% per annum with a minimum rate of 10.25% (10.25% at the date of closing) plus 2% interest to be paid in kind. Under the terms of the revolver the Company can borrow up to $6.0 million. The amount that can be borrowed under the revolver is based on the amount of eligible accounts receivable outstanding. The Company incurs interest expense on funds borrowed at the prevailing LIBOR rate plus 7.25% per annum with a minimum rate of 9.25% (9.25% at the date of closing). The additional proceeds from the Hercules Loan Agreement were used to pay the remaining balance of the ComVest Term Loan and Revolver in full. In conjunction with the Hercules Loan Agreement, we issued a warrant to purchase 718,860 shares of Unify common stock which are exercisable at $3.30 per share.
 
      The convertible note, the escrow note, warrant, and the shares underlying these instruments are exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder as these securities were neither offered nor sold to more than 35 purchasers and no form of general solicitation was used in the offer.  The shares of common stock issued upon conversion of the note are exempt from registration under Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933 as the shares were issued solely to former holders of the notes upon conversion of the notes and no commission or remuneration was paid or given directly or indirectly for soliciting such exchange.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS
 
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
 
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement:
 
     (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
 
     (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
 
     (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.
 
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
 
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
 
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:
 
      (i) If the Registrant is subject to Rule 430C, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
 
(b) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
