This Amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Allscripts-Misys Healthcare Solutions, Inc. (“Allscripts”) on June 9, 2010 is being filed to amend the termination date of the Shared Services Agreement dated as of March 1, 2009 (the “Shared Services Agreement”) between Allscripts and Misys plc (“Misys”) and to provide additional information relating to the management services fees to be paid by Allscripts to Misys pursuant to the Shared Services Agreement.
1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
As previously disclosed, on June 9, 2010, Allscripts entered into an Extension and Amendment Agreement to the Shared Services Agreement (the “Shared Services Amendment”), which amended certain terms of the Shared Services Agreement. Allscripts included in Item 1.01 to Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Allscripts with the SEC on June 9, 2010 (the “Original 8-K”) a description of the Shared Services Amendment under the heading “Amendment of Shared Services Agreement.”
The Original 8-K stated in error that the Shared Services Agreement was extended by the Shared Services Amendment until the earlier of June 9, 2011 and the closing of the Coniston Transactions (as defined in the Original 8-K). This Amendment to Form 8-K is being filed by Allscripts to correct such error and clarify that the term of the Shared Services Agreement was extended by the Shared Services Amendment until the earlier of October 10, 2010 and the closing of the Coniston Transactions.
The Shared Services Amendment also amends the management services fees to be paid by Allscripts to Misys from $3 million to $1.75 million, which is to be prorated if the Coniston Transactions occur prior to October 10, 2010.
No other statements made in the Original 8-K are amended or modified by this Amendment to Form 8-K. The foregoing summary of the Shared Services Amendment is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Shared Services Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference.
