Item 8.01. Other Events.
As previously disclosed, on December 1, 2020, Slack Technologies, Inc. ("Slack"
or the "Company") entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger
Agreement") with salesforce.com, inc. ("Salesforce"), Skyline Strategies I Inc.,
a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Salesforce, and Skyline
Strategies II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned
subsidiary of Salesforce, pursuant to which, and upon the terms and subject to
the conditions therein, Salesforce has agreed to acquire the Company (the
"Transaction").
The Transaction is conditioned on, among other things, the expiration or
termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust
Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the "HSR Act"). As previously disclosed,
on February 16, 2021, Slack and Salesforce each received a request for
additional information and documentary material, often referred to as a "second
request," from the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice (the "DOJ")
pursuant to the HSR Act.
On July 16, 2021, Slack and Salesforce were informed that the DOJ had closed its
investigation of the Transaction. The parties currently anticipate the closing
of the Transaction will occur on or about July 21, 2021, subject to the
satisfaction (or, to the extent permitted by applicable law, waiver) of the
conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement that by their nature are to be
satisfied at the closing of the Transaction.
