CALCULATION OF FILING FEE

Amount of Filing Fee(2)


$842,483,022

  

$90,146


(1) Calculated solely for purposes of determining the filing fee. Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated November 11, 2005, Spyglass Merger Corp. will merge into the Issuer and each outstanding share of common stock of the Issuer shall be converted into the right to receive $24.00, except for shares that are owned by the Issuer as treasury stock or owned by Spyglass Merger Corp. or any wholly owned subsidiary of Spyglass Merger Corp., which will be cancelled without any payment therefor, and except for shares that are owned by any wholly owned subsidiary of the Issuer that is not an employee benefit trust, which will remain outstanding. Pursuant to a Contribution and Voting Agreement, Douglas D. Troxel, as trustee for the Douglas D. Troxel Living Trust, will contribute 7,518,483 shares of common stock of the Issuer to Spyglass Merger Corp. immediately prior to the merger in exchange for shares of common stock of Spyglass Merger Corp. Each holder of options to acquire the Issuer’s common stock shall be entitled to receive, in consideration of the cancellation of such stock options, an amount (net of applicable taxes) equal to the product of (i) the excess, if any, of $24.00 per share of common stock over the exercise price per share of common stock subject to such stock option, multiplied by (ii) the total number of shares subject to such stock option. As of January 5, 2006, there were 41,376,180 shares of common stock of the Issuer issued and outstanding, and there were 6,190,123 shares of common stock of the Issuer subject to outstanding stock options, with a weighted-average exercise price of $19.17 per share. The filing fee was determined by adding (x) the product of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock that are proposed to be acquired in the transactions (calculated by subtracting 7,518,483 from 41,376,180) and (ii) the transaction consideration of $24.00 per share of Common Stock, plus (y) the product of (1) the total number of shares of Serena common stock subject to outstanding stock options multiplied by (2) the excess, if any, of $24.00 over the weighted average exercise price for such stock options ((x) and (y) together, the “Merger Consideration”).
(2) The filing fee, calculated in accordance with Exchange Act Rule 0-11(c)(1), was calculated by multiplying the Merger Consideration by 0.000107.

 

x Check box if any part of the fee is offset as provided by Rule 0-11(a)(2) under the Act and identify the filing with which the offsetting fee was paid previously. Identify the previous filing by registration statement number, or the Form or Schedule and the date of its filing.

Introduction

 

This Amendment No. 3 (the “Final Amendment”) to the Rule 13E-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 (the “Statement”) is being filed by (1) Serena Software, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company” or “Serena”), the issuer of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), that is the subject of the Rule 13e-3 transaction, (2) Douglas D. Troxel, an individual, the Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Technology Officer of Serena, (3) Mark E. Woodward, an individual, the President and Chief Executive Officer of Serena and a member of its board of directors, (4) Robert I. Pender, Jr., an individual, the Chief Financial Officer and Senior Vice President, Finance and Administration, of Serena and a member of its board of directors, (5) Silver Lake Partners, II, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“SLP II”) and (6) Silver Lake Technology Associates II, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (together with Serena, Spyglass Merger Corp., Douglas D. Troxel, Mark E. Woodward, Robert I. Pender, Jr. and SLP II the “Filing Persons”).

 

This Final Amendment is being filed pursuant to Rule 13e-3(d)(3) to report the results of the transaction which is the subject of the Statement. This Statement relates to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of November 11, 2005, between the Company and Spyglass Merger Corp., a Delaware corporation, which provides for, among other things, the merger of Spyglass Merger Corp. with and into the Company, and the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”).

 

The information contained in the definitive Proxy Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 14, 2006 (the “Proxy Statement”), including all annexes thereto, is incorporated in its entirety herein by this reference, and the responses to each Item in this Schedule 13E-3 are qualified in their entirety by the information contained in the Proxy Statement.

Item 15. Additional Information

 

Regulation M-A Item 1011

 

Item 15(b) is hereby amended and supplemented as follows.

 

  (b) Other Material Information.

 

On Thursday, March 9, 2006, at the special meeting of the Serena’s stockholders, the Merger Agreement was adopted by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Serena Common Stock entitled to vote at the special meeting.

 

On March 10, 2006, Serena filed a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, pursuant to which the Merger was completed. The Merger became effective upon the filing, at which time each share of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, was converted into the right to receive $24.00 in cash, without interest, other than shares held in the treasury of the Company or owned by Spyglass Merger Corp. or any wholly owned subsidiary of Spyglass Merger Corp., which were cancelled without payment thereon, shares that were owned by any wholly owned subsidiary of the Company that is not an employee benefit trust, which remain outstanding, and shares held by stockholders who were entitled to and who properly exercised and perfected appraisal rights in compliance with all of the required procedures under Delaware law.

 

Immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, all outstanding options to acquire Common Stock became fully vested and immediately exercisable unless otherwise agreed between the holder of any of those options and Spyglass Merger Corp. In connection with the Merger, each option holder was provided the opportunity to receive cash, without interest, in an amount equal to the product of (1) the total number of shares of Common Stock subject to each stock option held by such holder multiplied by (2) the excess, if any, of $24.00 over the exercise price per share of Common Stock under such option, less any applicable withholding taxes.

 

As a result of the Merger, Serena’s Common Stock was delisted from the Nasdaq National Market. Serena expects to file a Form 15 with the Securities and Exchange Commission in order to deregister its Common Stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
