ITEM 2.01                                  COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

 

On October 24, 2013, Evolving Systems, Merger Sub, Telespree and a representative of the shareholders and change in control payment recipients of Telespree entered into a Merger Agreement.  Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement:  (a) Merger Sub was merged with and into Telespree (the “Merger”), with Telespree continuing as the surviving corporation and as a wholly owned subsidiary of Evolving Systems; and (b) Evolving Systems:  (i) acquired all of the outstanding securities of Telespree; (ii) made an initial payment totaling approximately $1.6 million comprised of approximately $0.8 million in cash and approximately $0.8 million in stock; (iii) agreed to make a payment on the 1 year anniversary of the Merger of $0.5 million, with such payment being available to secure Telespree’s representations and warranties under the Merger Agreement; and (iv) will potentially make payments in cash on the achievement of certain financial targets for the period from October 25, 2013 through October 24, 2016.
