ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER
This Amendment to Schedule 13D is being filed by Intuit Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Intuit”), and relates to the termination of the Agreement and Plan of Merger among Intuit, Elan Acquisition Corporation, a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Intuit (“Merger Sub”), and Electronic Clearing House, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“ECHO”), dated as of December 14, 2006 (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which Intuit would acquire all of the outstanding common stock of ECHO for consideration equal to $18.75 per share of ECHO common stock through a merger of Merger Sub with and into ECHO (the “Merger”). The business address of ECHO is 730 Paseo Camarillo, Camarillo, California 93010. This Amendment amends the Schedule 13D filed by Intuit on December 22, 2006.
The Schedule 13D as previously filed is amended by the following information:
ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION
As an inducement for Intuit to enter into the Merger Agreement, ECHO’s directors and executive officers entered into voting agreements with Intuit (the “Voting Agreements”) pursuant to which they agreed, among other things, in their respective capacities as stockholders of ECHO, to vote all of their shares of ECHO common stock, as well as any additional shares of ECHO common stock which they may acquire (pursuant to ECHO stock options, warrants and other rights to acquire shares of ECHO common stock):
  •   in favor of approval of the Merger;
  •   against approval of any proposal made in opposition to, or in competition with, consummation of the Merger and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, and against any action or agreement that would result in a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or other obligation of ECHO in the Merger Agreement; and
  •   against any Acquisition Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement) or (other than those actions that relate to the Merger and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement) any other: (A) merger, consolidation, business combination, sale of assets, reorganization or recapitalization of ECHO or any subsidiary of ECHO with any party, (B) sale, lease or transfer of any significant part of the assets of ECHO or any subsidiary of ECHO, (C) reorganization, recapitalization, dissolution, liquidation or winding up of ECHO or any subsidiary of ECHO, (D) material change in the capitalization of ECHO or any subsidiary of ECHO, or the corporate structure of ECHO or any subsidiary of ECHO, or (E) action that is intended, or could reasonably be expected to, impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, discourage or adversely affect the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
The Voting Agreements automatically terminated on March 26, 2007 as a result of termination of the Merger Agreement. Accordingly, Intuit no longer holds any beneficial ownership in shares of ECHO common stock.

 

 

ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
(a)-(b) As a result of the termination of the Merger Agreement as described in Item 4 above, Intuit no longer holds any beneficial ownership in shares of ECHO common stock, and accordingly, Intuit has no power, shared or otherwise, to dispose of and/or to vote any shares of ECHO common stock.
(e) As a result of the termination of the Merger Agreement as described in Item 4 above, as of March 26, 2007 Intuit no longer holds any beneficial ownership in shares of ECHO common stock, and accordingly, Intuit has no power, shared or otherwise, to dispose of and/or to vote any shares of ECHO common stock.
