The Transaction will be submitted to a vote of Cotelligent’s stockholders at the adjourned meeting on July 13, 2005. Stockholders may vote on the special meeting proposals until the date and time of the adjourned meeting on July 13, 2005.

Special Meeting Proposals

 

As discussed in more detail in the Company’s May 27, 2005 proxy statement, the special meeting has been called for stockholders to consider and vote upon the following matters:

 

  1. To approve the sale of substantially all of the assets related to Cotelligent’s sales force automation software and services solutions business (the “Transaction”) pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of April 1, 2005 (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”), by and among FastTrack, LLC, Cotelligent and certain of Cotelligent’s subsidiaries, as more fully described in the May 27, 2005 proxy statement.

 

  2. To adjourn or postpone the special meeting on one or more occasions if a quorum is not present or if sufficient votes in favor of the Transaction are not received by the time scheduled for the special meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof.

 

  3. To address any procedural matters that may properly come before the special meeting or any adjournment thereof.

 

VOTING AND REVOCABILITY OF PROXIES

 

Only holders of record at the close of business on May 16, 2005 (the “Record Date”) will be entitled to vote at the meeting. On the Record Date there were 28,520,962 shares of Cotelligent’s common stock, par value $.01 per share, outstanding, each of which is entitled to one (1) vote.

 

A proxy card for use at the special meting is enclosed. The execution of a proxy will not affect a stockholder’s right to attend and vote in person at the special meeting.

 

NO ACTION IN CONNECTION WITH THIS SUPPLEMENT IS REQUIRED BY ANY STOCKHOLDER WHO HAS PREVIOUSLY DELIVERED A PROXY FOR USE AT THE SPECIAL MEETING AND WHO DOES NOT WISH TO REVOKE THAT PROXY OR CHANGE HIS VOTE.

Attendance at the special meeting will not by itself constitute revocation of a proxy. A Cotelligent stockholder of record attending the special meeting may revoke his or her proxy and vote in person by informing the Secretary before the vote is taken at the special meeting that he or she desires to revoke a previously submitted proxy.

 

Our board of directors is not currently aware of any business to be brought before the special meeting other than that described in the proxy statement and this supplement. However, if other matters are properly presented, the persons named as proxies will vote in accordance with their judgment with respect to those matters.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION

 

On June 13, 2005, FastTrack, LLC, and its affiliate, Beverly Hills, California-based private equity firm Skyview Capital, LLC, notified the Company of certain concerns relating to the operation of the Company’s sales force automation software and services solutions business (the “Business”). One of the issues related to a new contract entered into by the Company with an existing customer subsequent to the date the Asset Purchase Agreement was signed. The new contract provides for reduced annual revenues for this customer. Another issue related to whether the employees of the Business and the assets being purchased were adequate to provide technical support for a specific component of the Company’s sales force automation software solution. After discussing these issues, the parties agreed to modify the terms of the Transaction and executed an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Asset Purchase Agreement. The following is a summary of the significant provisions of the Amendment. The summary is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Annex A and incorporated herein by reference. Under the Amendment:

 

    The cash portion of the consideration to be paid at closing has been decreased from Two Million Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,800,000) to Two Million Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,300,000).

 

    The maximum earn-out amount of $950,000 if certain future revenue targets are attained over the three (3) years following completion of the sale has been increased to $1,450,000.

 

    FastTrack has acknowledged and agreed that the condition to closing which requires that the representations and warranties of Cotelligent in the Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the closing is deemed satisfied, except with respect to events or developments that occur subsequent to the date of the Amendment. FastTrack has also agreed to waive any and all claims it may have with respect to a breach of any representation or warranty in the Agreement with respect to matters that are known to FastTrack as of the date of the Amendment.

 

    FastTrack has acknowledged and agreed that the condition to closing which requires that Cotelligent shall have performed in all material respects all obligations required to be performed by it under the Agreement is deemed satisfied, except with respect to events or developments that occur subsequent to the date of the Amendment. FastTrack has also agreed to waive any and all claims it may have with respect to a breach of any covenant in the Agreement with respect to matters that are known to FastTrack as of the date of the Amendment.

 

Cotelligent’s Board of Directors believes that the provisions in the Amendment relating to the satisfaction of FastTrack’s closing conditions will provide greater certainty that the Transaction will be consummated. While the cash portion of the consideration to be received by the Company has decreased by $500,000, the maximum earn-out amount has been increased by $500,000. As a result, if the maximum earn-out amount is obtained, the Company will receive the same consideration it would have received prior to executing the Amendment. The Company cannot provide any assurance, however, as to the amount of the earn-out, if any, that will be received by the Company.
