TABLE OF CONTENTS
Item 8.01 Other Events.
This Current Report on Form 8-K relates to the cash tender offer by Knickerbocker Acquisition Corp.
(Purchaser), a New York corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of infoUSA Inc. (the Company),
to acquire (i) all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per
share (the Common Shares), of Guideline Inc., a New York corporation (Guideline), at a price of
$1.35 per Common Share, in cash, and (ii) all of the issued and outstanding shares of Series A
preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Guideline (the Preferred Shares and, along with
the Common Shares, the Shares), at a price equal to the liquidation preference per Preferred
Share of $1.50 per share plus accrued dividends thereon, in cash (collectively the Offer), all
pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 28, 2007, by and among the
Company, Purchaser and Guideline (the Merger Agreement).
On August 23, 2007, the Company announced the successful completion of the previously announced
subsequent offering period, which expired at 12:00 midnight EDT at the end of Wednesday, August 22,
2007. As of the expiration of the subsequent offering period, an
additional 1,704,097 Common Shares
had been validly tendered, resulting in the ownership by Purchaser of
an aggregate of 21,267,898 Common
Shares, or 94.4% of all Common Shares outstanding, as well as all of the Preferred Shares
outstanding.
Also on August 23, 2007, the Company announced its intent to consummate a short-form merger
without a vote of Guideline shareholders, as permitted by and pursuant to the New York Business
Corporation Act. The merger was consummated on August 24, 2007. As a result of the merger, all
remaining outstanding Common Shares, other than Common Shares held by shareholders of Guideline
that perfect their rights to appraisal under the New York Business Corporation Act, were converted
into the right to receive $1.35 per Common Share, in cash, without interest. Common Shares held by
shareholders who perfect their appraisal rights will represent only the right to receive the amount
awarded in the appraisal, or, if such demand for appraisal is withdrawn or forfeited, $1.35 per
Common Share, in cash, without interest. As a result of the merger, Guideline, the surviving
corporation in the merger, became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company, with the Company owning all
1,000 outstanding shares of Guideline.
Approximately
$39.4 million was required in connection with the consummation of the Offer and the merger, including repayment of Guideline
indebtedness and payment of transaction-related expenses. The Company and Purchaser used working capital and
funds available under the Companys credit facility to pay such amounts.
A copy of the August 23, 2007 press release issued by the Company announcing the expiration of the
subsequent offering period and the expected closing of the merger is attached hereto as Exhibit
99.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
