ITEM 2.01                                  COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

 

On July 3, 2017, Evolving Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), completed the previously announced purchase by BLS Limited (“EVOL BLS”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, of Business Logic Systems Limited (“Seller”).  EVOL BLS and Seller are both companies incorporated under the laws of England and Wales.  Under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of May 5, 2017 (the “Purchase Agreement”), the Seller will sell substantially all of its assets and transfer certain liabilities relating to Seller’s business of providing customer value management solutions and data driven marketing solutions for £1.2M in cash, plus (a) an additional sum of £100K, reduced by the sums paid by EVOL BLS for certain employee severance obligations (collectively, the “Cash Payments”); (b) a percentage of collections on certain receivables over a 24  month period; and (c) an earnout equal to 50% of BLS based revenue over defined threshold levels for a period of 3 years after the closing date. The Company agreed to guarantee EVOL BLS’ obligations under the Purchase Agreement.

 

The Purchase Agreement contains a two year “no solicitation” provision which restricts the Seller’s ability to compete with EVOL BLS with respect to the BLS business or to solicit BLS customers or BLS employees serving in an executive, managerial, sales or technical role.

 

The full text of the Asset Purchase Agreement and the press release issued in connection with the announcement are attached as Exhibits 2.1 and 99.1, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
