Item 2.   Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

On November 26, 2003, CyberGuard Corporation, a Florida corporation (“Company”), completed the acquisition of SnapGear, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“SnapGear”), pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated November 12, 2003 (“Agreement”).

 

The consideration to SnapGear was approximately $16 million in cash and stock. The $16 million consideration consisted of: (a) approximately 1,651,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock valued at $14,400,000 (based upon the average closing price of the Common Stock over a ten-day period prior to the date of the closing); and (b) cash of approximately $1.6 million. In addition, the stockholders of SnapGear are entitled to receive up to approximately 367,000 additional shares of the Company’s Common Stock valued at $3,200,000 if certain revenue targets are attained post-closing.

 

SnapGear stockholders were granted certain registration rights pertaining to the Common Stock they received in the transaction. The purchase price was determined through arms-length negotiations between representatives of the Company and SnapGear. The Company’s general corporate funds were the source of the funds used to fund the cash portion of the purchase price.

 

SnapGear, a privately-held company founded in Australia, is a leading developer of embedded Linux security and offers a popular line of edge firewall/VPN security appliances for the small to medium enterprise markets.

 

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Agreement, which is included as Exhibit 2.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
