Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
     On October 8, 2007, McAfee, Inc. (“McAfee”) and one of its wholly-owned subsidiaries entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Share Purchase Agreement”) with Safeboot Holding B.V., a corporation organized under the laws of the Netherlands (“Safeboot”) and the shareholders of Safeboot.
     Under the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement, a wholly-owned subsidiary of McAfee will acquire all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Safeboot, a privately held company, for aggregate consideration of approximately $350 million, consisting of (i) an initial cash payment of approximately $274 million, less certain third-party transaction expenses, and (ii) the assumption of indebtedness of approximately $85 million, based on the currency exchange rate as of October 5, 2007. In addition, McAfee has agreed to assume all of the outstanding Safeboot stock options, which will be exchanged for options to purchase shares of McAfee common stock, to be based on the ten-trading-day average closing price ending on the trading days prior to the completion of the acquisition. A portion of the purchase price will be placed in escrow to satisfy certain indemnification obligations of Safeboot and its shareholders described in the Share Purchase Agreement.
     We have agreed, pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement, to file within a certain time a registration statement on Form S-8 to cover the shares of common stock underlying the options McAfee will be assuming in connection with the acquisition.
     Consummation of the transaction is subject to certain conditions, including (i) the expiration or termination of the waiting periods under applicable antitrust laws, (ii) the absence of any material adverse effect on Safeboot, and (iii) the continued employment of Gerhard Watzinger, the chief executive officer of Safeboot.
