Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
All shares of Manatron Common Stock acquired by Constellation were acquired with the working
capital of Constellation. All shares of Manatron Common Stock reported herein as being
beneficially owned by any of the directors and executive officers of Constellation were purchased
by them using personal funds. None of the shares of Manatron Common Stock that are the subject of
this Schedule 13D were acquired with borrowed funds.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
The
shares of Manatron Common Stock reported herein as beneficially owned
by Constellation were
acquired by it for investment purposes. To the knowledge of Constellation, without specific
inquiry, the shares of Manatron Common Stock reported herein as beneficially owned by any person or
entity other than Constellation were acquired by such person or entity for investment purposes.
On December 14, 2006 Constellation delivered to the Issuer a letter (the Initial Proposal Letter)
containing a non-binding proposal to acquire all of the issued and outstanding Common Stock of the
Issuer that Constellation does not currently own, at a valuation of
US$ 9.00 per share in cash, in
a merger transaction.
The
proposal set forth in the Initial Proposal Letters was rejected by the Board of Directors
of the Issuer on December 20, 2006.
On
February 28, 2007, Constellation delivered to the Issuer a new letter (the Proposal Letter)
containing a non-binding proposal to acquire all of the issued and outstanding Common Stock
of the Issuer that Constellation does not currently own, at a valuation of U. S. $10.00 per
share in cash, in a merger transaction (the Proposal). The Proposal Letter is filed herewith
as Exhibit 1 and is incorporated herein by this reference.
The Proposal is conditioned upon, among other things, the negotiation of mutually acceptable
definitive documents and satisfactory completion of confirmatory due diligence. The Proposal
Letter shall not create any agreement, arrangement or understanding between Constellation or any
other parties with respect to the Issuer or Manatron Common Stock for purposes of any law, rule,
regulation, agreement or otherwise, until such time, if any, as definitive documentation and any
agreement, arrangement or understanding has been approved and thereafter executed by Constellation,
the Issuer and all other appropriate parties. Any proposed transaction would require the approval
of the Issuers board of directors and stockholders and Constellations board of directors. If and
when a final proposal from Constellation is submitted to the stockholders of the Issuer for their
approval, Constellation intends to vote all share of Manatron Common Stock that are beneficially
owned by it for such proposal.
If an acquisition of the Issuer is consummated by Constellation, Constellation contemplates
that the Manatron Common Stock of the Issuer would be delisted from Nasdaq and deregistered under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. It is further contemplated that, subsequent to an
acquisition, the composition of the Issuers board of directors would be changed in a manner to be
determined at a later date.
Constellation intends to review on a continuing basis its
investment in the Issuer. Constellation may seek to influence management or the board of directors
of the Issuer with respect to the business and affairs of the Issuer, including having the Issuer
take action to facilitate consummation of the Proposal.
Depending
upon the response of the Issuers Board of Directors to the Proposal, and subject to
compliance
with applicable law, Constellation may decide to change its
investment in the Issuer. Depending
upon the price and availability of the Issuers securities, subsequent developments regarding
the Issuer and the Proposal, other investments and opportunities available to Constellation,
general stock market and other conditions, tax and legal considerations, and other relevant
factors, Constellation may elect to either purchase additional shares of the Issuers Common
Stock or may sell all or a portion of its securities of the Issuer. These transactions could
occur in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions,
through a public offering or
otherwise.
The information set forth in response to this Item 4 is qualified in its entirety by reference
to the Proposal Letter.

EXHIBIT 1PROPOSAL LETTER
[LETTERHEAD OF CONSTELLATION SOFTWARE INC.]
March 2, 2007
Mr. Paul Sylvester
Chief Executive Officer and Co-Chairman
Manatron Inc.
510 East Milham Ave.
Portage, Michigan 49002
Dear Mr. Sylvester:
I
am approaching you in your role as Chairman of the Board of Directors of Manatron Inc. (the Company) in order to
propose the acquisition of the Company by Constellation Software Inc. We are willing to make a
conditional proposal to acquire the Companys common stock in exchange for cash equal to US $10.00
per fully diluted common share. As you are aware the Companys share price, at the close of the
NASDAQ yesterday, was US $8.40, so our proposal represents a premium of 19% for holders of the
Company common stock.
This proposal is not binding on Constellation Software Inc. at this time but is extended in
sincerity to advance a combination which we believe is in the best interests of the shareholders of
both companies.
This proposal is conditioned on several factors some of which, without limitation, are:
|
|
|
acceptance of this bid as a basis for more detailed discussions by the
Companys board no later than midnight on March 19, 2007; |
|
|
|
|
a timely definitive agreement approved by the boards of both companies; |
|
|
|
|
successfully obtaining all regulatory approvals including, without
limitation, the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act; |
|
|
|
successful completion of due diligence by Constellation Software Inc. and
its agents; |
|
|
|
|
approval by the Securities and Exchange Commission of an appropriate proxy
to be distributed to shareholders of the company; |
|
|
|
|
favorable votes as required by applicable Michigan law by the shareholders
of the Company; and |
|
|
|
|
such other terms and conditions as are usual and customary in transactions
of this sort. |
The Board of Directors of Constellation Software Inc. reserves the right to withdraw this
proposal at any time with or without cause.
Mr. Sylvester, I sincerely hope that you and your Board will respond to this proposal in the
constructive spirit in which it is offered. I and my Board believe that a combination of the
Company and Constellation Software Inc. will be favorably viewed by the shareholders and customers
of the Company.
If you and your Board have any questions about this proposal which would be helpful to you in
reaching what we hope will be a favorable decision, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Yours very truly,
/S/ Barry Symons
Barry Symons
Chief Financial Officer
Constellation Software Inc.
