Item 5.    Other Events.

 

On September 3, 2003, Cotelligent, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that it had agreed to dismiss its lawsuit against Skiritai Capital LLC (“Skiritai Capital”) with prejudice. The Company’s agreement to dismiss this lawsuit was made in connection with a settlement agreement entered into by the Company with Skiritai Capital, Russell Silvestri, James Glockner and Lyron Bentovim (collectively, the “Skiritai Group”).

 

As part of the settlement agreement, the Company announced that it intends to appoint a new independent director, reasonably satisfactory to the Skiritai Group, to its Board of Directors and that it intends to reimburse the Skiritai Group for certain of its out-of-pocket expenses in connection with the lawsuit. According to the terms of the settlement agreement, members of the Skiritai Group will abide by customary standstill provisions not to acquire additional securities of Cotelligent, engage in a proxy contest, attempt to serve on Cotelligent’s Board or influence the Company’s policies. Members of the Skiritai Group have also agreed to certain limitations on dispositions of shares of common stock owned by them. In addition, the members of the Skiritai Group have agreed to vote their shares of the Company’s common stock at any stockholder meeting or in connection with any action by written consent (i) in favor of the slate of nominees proposed by the Board and (ii) on other matters submitted to the stockholders of the Company, subject to certain exceptions, in accordance with the recommendation of the Board as to how shares of common stock should be voted.
