Item 1. Description of Registrants Securities to be Registered.
On March 25, 2005, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement) by and among the Company, Acxiom Corporation, a Delaware corporation (Acxiom), and Adam Merger Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Acxiom (Merger Sub), pursuant to which Acxiom will cause Merger Sub to commence an offer to purchase any and all the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company, including the Rights (as defined in the Rights Agreement) issued pursuant to the Rights Agreement (the Offer) and following such purchase, Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company (the Merger). In connection with the Merger Agreement, the Company and Computershare entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Rights Agreement dated March 24, 2005 (the Amendment). The effect of the Amendment is to permit the execution of the Merger Agreement and the performance and consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the Offer and the Merger, without triggering the separation or exercise of the Rights or any adverse event under the Rights Agreement.
The Amendment generally provides that (i) Acxiom shall not be an Acquiring Person under the Rights Agreement solely by virtue of entering into the Merger Agreement and the performance of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger and the Offer and (ii) the entry into the Merger Agreement, the Merger, the Offer and the performance of the transactions contemplated thereby shall not result in the grant of Rights to any person under the Rights Agreement or enable or require the Rights to be exercised, distributed or triggered.
