One thing that caught my attention with regard to this news was the following - In connection with the transaction, Warburg Pincus, the global private equity firm and a leading investor in technology companies, has agreed to purchase 5,760,369 shares of Nuance common stock at a purchase price of $17.36 per share, the closing price on Friday, April 4, 2008, for an aggregate investment of $100 million. In addition, Warburg Pincus will acquire a warrant to purchase 3.7 million shares of Nuance common stock upon the closing of the investment. The warrant has an exercise price of $20.00 per share and a four-year term. Warburg Pincus has also agreed not to sell any shares of Nuance common stock for a period of six months from the closing of the transaction. This transaction will close concurrent with, and is contingent upon, the closing of the eScription acquisition.
