Parent is controlled by Francisco Partners, one of the world’s largest technology-focused private equity firms (“Francisco Partners”). The Merger Agreement was filed as Appendix A to the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 8, 2010, and was adopted by the Company’s common stockholders at a special meeting of the Company’s common stockholders held on March 9, 2010.
| ITEM 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On March 18, 2010, the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries Tempus Software, LLC (“Tempus”), QuadraMed Affinity Corporation (“QuadraMed Affinity”), and QuadCopper, LLC (“QuadCopper”), entered into a credit agreement with QuadraMed Holdings LLC (“LLC”), QuadraMed Quantim Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of LLC (“Quantim,” and collectively with the Company, Tempus, QuadraMed Affinity, and QuadCopper, the “Borrowers”), the lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”) and Wells Fargo Capital Finance, LLC, as agent for the Lenders (the “Credit Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Lenders, subject to the terms and conditions therein, committed to provide a $65,000,000 secured credit facility, consisting of (i) a secured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $60,000,000 and (ii) a secured revolving credit facility with a maximum availability of $5,000,000. The facility will be used for the purpose of funding a portion of the consideration payable in connection with the Merger, paying certain fees and expenses of the Merger, and for all other lawful and permitted purposes in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. The initial term of the facility is three years, with the ability to extend the facility for an additional two years in the event that the Company meets certain requirements.
In connection with its entry into the Credit Agreement, the Borrowers, including the Company, entered into a security agreement (the “Security Agreement”) dated as of March 18, 2010 with LLC (together with the Borrowers, the “Grantors”), the Lenders and Wells Fargo Capital Finance, as agent (“Agent”) for the Lenders and the Bank Product Providers (as defined in the Credit Agreement). Pursuant to the terms of the Security Agreement, each Grantor granted, assigned and pledged to Agent, for the benefit of each Lender and Bank Product Provider, a continuing security interest in all of such Grantor’s right, title, and interest in and to certain collateral set forth in the Security Agreement, including intellectual property rights, accounts, deposit accounts, cash and cash equivalents, in order to secure the payment, observance and performance of the obligations of the Grantors and the Borrowers under the Security Agreement and Credit Agreement, respectively.

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, other than dissenting shares or shares held by the Company, Parent, Merger Sub or their subsidiaries, each issued and outstanding share of the Company’s common stock was cancelled and automatically converted into the right to receive $8.50 per share in cash, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”) and less any applicable withholding tax, and each issued and outstanding share of the Company’s Series A Cumulative Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Stock”), was cancelled and automatically converted into the right to receive $13.7097 per share in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding tax.
