Item 8.01. Other Events

On February 6, 2013, ICG Group, Inc. (“ICG”) announced that its consolidated subsidiary, Channel Intelligence, Inc. (“Channel Intelligence”), entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by Google Inc. (“Google”) for $125 million of cash, subject to adjustment at closing for working capital and other items. The transaction, which is subject to a number of closing conditions, is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2013. ICG expects to realize approximately $60.5 million in connection with the transaction; a portion of ICG’s proceeds will be held in escrow, subject to potential indemnification claims.

ICG’s gains relating to the 2012 consolidation of Channel Intelligence’s parent company and the sale of its stake to Google total approximately $43 million, approximately $26 million of which was recorded in the three months ended September 30, 2012, and approximately $17 million of which will be recorded upon the closing of the transaction. The release of any escrowed proceeds to ICG will result in additional gains.

A copy of ICG’s press release announcing the pending sale of Channel Intelligence to Google is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is hereby incorporated by reference.
