Codes of Ethics
We have adopted two codes of ethics, each designed to encourage our
employees, executives and directors to act with the highest integrity.
Code of Business Ethics.
We review and update our Code of
Business Ethics (the COBE) annually. The purpose of the COBE is to convey the basic principles of business conduct expected of all our executives and employees, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Controller,
and other senior financial personnel performing similar functions. Except where prohibited by law, we require all of our executives and employees to review the COBE at least once a year and to submit a report to our Ethics Officer (i) stating
that he or she has read and understands the COBE, (ii) reporting any conflicts of interest he or she may have, (iii) agreeing to comply with all of our policies, (iv) reporting any suspected violations of the COBE or our policies
referenced in the COBE, and (v) reporting any known violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. In support of the COBE, we provide targeted COBE training to our employees and provide our employees with numerous avenues for the reporting of
ethics violations or other similar concerns, including the required employee reports and an anonymous telephone hotline. The Audit Committee monitors the implementation and enforcement of the COBE. The COBE meets the definition of code of
ethics under the rules and regulations of the SEC and is posted on the Corporate Governance page of our website at
http://www.novell.com/company/ir/cg/cobe/cobe.html.
In the event that we amend or waive provisions of the COBE that are
applicable to our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions, we intend to disclose such amendment or waiver on our website within four business days.
Non-Employee Director Code of Ethics.
Our Board of Directors has established the Non-Employee Director Code of Ethics (the
Director Code). The Director Code sensitizes directors on areas of ethical risk relating to their specialized roles, provides mechanisms for directors to report unethical conduct, and fosters a culture of honesty and accountability among
directors. Each non-employee director is required to review the Director Code at least once a year and to submit a report generally (i) stating that he or she has read and understands the Director Code, (ii) reporting any conflicts of
interest he or she may have, (iii) agreeing to comply with the Director Code, and (iv) reporting any suspected violations of the Director Code. A copy of the Director Code may be found through the Corporate Governance page of our website
at
http://www.novell.com/company/ir/cg/cobe/director_cobe.html.
Director Recommendations
No changes have been made to the procedures by which security holders may recommend nominees to our Board of Directors since our definitive proxy
statement for our 2010 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, dated February 26, 2010.
5
Audit Committee
The Audit Committee was established in accordance with section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act and is currently comprised of Messrs. Jones, who serves as its Chairperson, Aiello and Corrado.
Our Board of Directors has determined that (i) the members of the Audit Committee are independent as defined by the listing standards of
The Nasdaq Stock Market (NASDAQ), (ii) the members of the Audit Committee possess the attributes to be considered financially sophisticated for purposes of the listing standards of NASDAQ and (ii) each of Messrs. Jones,
Corrado, and Aiello has the background to be considered an audit committee financial expert as defined by the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Item 11.
Executive Compensation
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
Overview
In fiscal 2009, the contraction of global economies impacted our ability to grow and expand our business and our focus was on improving profitability and
containing costs to preserve long-term stockholder value. Fiscal 2010 began with a focus on growth and stockholder value. We adopted key goals of becoming a leader in the emerging category of intelligent workload management, retaining and acquiring
customers by leveraging our partners, and meeting invoicing (reflecting future revenue) and operating margin targets. On March, 2, 2010, our Board of Directors received an unsolicited letter sent on behalf of Elliott Associates, L.P. and Elliott
International, L.P. making a conditional and non-binding proposal to acquire Novell for $5.75 per share in cash. At a meeting on March 19, 2010, our Board of Directors, after a lengthy discussion, including with Novells legal and
financial advisors, concluded that the proposal was inadequate and not in our, or our stockholders, best interests. At that time our Board of Directors authorized commencing a process in which the initial focus would be on a sale of the entire
company together with a thorough review of various alternatives to enhance stockholder value.
For the full year, Novell reported fiscal 2010
net revenue of $811.9 million compared to fiscal 2009 net revenue of $862.2 million representing a decrease of 6% compared to the prior year. The lower product revenue primarily resulted from weakness in our legacy products in the challenging
economic market as well as, we believe, the uncertainty associated with the review of alternatives to enhance stockholder value. Despite lower revenue, we maintained our operating margins during fiscal 2010.
Shortly after the end of fiscal 2010, on November 21, 2010, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement) with
Attachmate Corporation (Attachmate) and Longview Software Acquisition Corp. (Merger Sub), which provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will be merged with and
into us, with us continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Attachmate. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the time the merger is effective, each issued and outstanding share of our common stock, other
than treasury shares, shares held by Attachmate, Merger Sub or any other direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Attachmate or us and shares held by stockholders who perfect their appraisal rights, will be converted into the right to receive
$6.10 in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes. Also on November 21, 2010, we entered into a Patent Purchase Agreement (the Patent Purchase Agreement) with CPTN Holdings LLC, a consortium of technology
companies organized by Microsoft Corporation (CPTN), which provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Patent Purchase Agreement, we will sell to CPTN all of our right, title and interest in certain
identified issued patents and patent applications for $450 million in cash.
As discussed further below, performance metrics under executive
compensation programs for fiscal 2010 were set at the beginning of the year to align with our key focus areas. Notwithstanding the challenges presented by our Board of Directors authorized review and activities discussed above, executives
remained centered on executing against
6
the performance goals. Compensation paid was consistent with compensation program objectives and actual performance results.
Highlights of Fiscal 2010 Compensation
The overall objectives of Novells
executive compensation program are to:
|
|
|
Ensure that executives interests are closely aligned with stockholders interests in the success of Novell;
|
|
|
|
Reward executives based on the achievement of short and long-term business objectives based on individual, business unit, and company performance; and
|
|
|
|
Provide competitive compensation opportunities that will attract, retain and motivate superior executive personnel.
|
Financial performance metrics under compensation plans emphasized revenue and invoicing (reflecting future revenue) as well as non-Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles (GAAP) operating income (calculated as described below under Description of Performance Targets). Targets for these financial metrics were based on our business plan. The performance targets related to Novells
Fiscal 2010 Annual Incentive Program for Executives (the 2010 Incentive Program) reflected a decline from the previous year of 6% - 14% since the business plan anticipated a challenging economic market. Because of this decline, the
Compensation Committee determined that it would not be appropriate to pay full bonus amounts for these decreased targets. Accordingly, the Compensation Committee decided that 100% achievement of the financial performance metrics would correspond to
payment of only 72% of an executives target annual cash incentive (as described in more detail below). Significant over-achievement of the fiscal 2010 financial performance metrics was therefore required for an executive to attain 100% of his
or her target annual cash incentive.
Executive compensation for the year aligns with intended objectives and reflects achieved results and
contributions. Despite the uncertainty and speculation caused by the announcement of the review of various alternatives to enhance stockholder value, the team met this challenge accomplishing the key goals set at the beginning of the year. Executive
compensation highlights for fiscal 2010 include:
|
|
|
Executive salaries and target annual cash incentive opportunities were not increased.
|
|
|
|
The total compensation of our CEO declined by 28% as compared to fiscal 2009 (as reported in the Summary Compensation Table below).
|
|
|
|
Our Board of Directors and named executive officers (Named Executive Officers or NEOs) were, and continue to be, subject to
minimum stock ownership requirements, promoting retention of equity to enhance alignment with stockholders.
|
|
|
|
100% of the equity compensation issued to executives was linked to growth in the value of Novells stock. Specifically, 50% of the equity
compensation issued relates to the value derived from the appreciation of stock underlying options and the other 50% relates to the achievement of stock price performance targets.
|
Fiscal 2011 Compensation Structure
Growth continues to be our focus for fiscal 2011 and the performance metrics under compensation plans remain consistent with fiscal 2010 performance
metrics. The Merger Agreement generally restricts, subject to certain limited exceptions, including, without limitation, Attachmates prior written consent, our ability to take certain actions with respect to executive compensation during the
interim period between the execution of the Merger Agreement and the consummation of the merger (or the date on which the Merger Agreement is earlier terminated). Therefore, there have been no changes to base salaries and annual cash incentive
targets for the NEOs, and no equity awards have been granted to the NEOs for fiscal 2011.
7
Elements of Executive Compensation
Consistent with our peers, we provide a mix of cash compensation, short-term incentives, and long-term incentives. Performance compensation opportunity represents a substantial proportion of total
compensation for our NEOs. In fiscal 2010, our NEOs were compensated through the following compensation elements, as described in greater detail in the table below:
|
|
|
short-term incentives (annual cash incentives)
|
|
|
|
long-term incentives (equity)
|
|
|
|
savings and deferred compensation programs
|

Short-Term Incentives
(annual cash incentives)
|
|
Each executive officers annual cash incentive opportunity is based on achieving
corporate or functional-level financial goals plus his or her achievement of assigned qualitative objectives
|
|
Drives business results
Allows executives to share in Novells success
Provides a competitive total compensation package
Corresponds directly to corporate results, as approved by our Board of
Directors, and aligns with corporate, function, and individual results (low results yields low or no payout)
|

We generally set annual cash incentive targets above the 50th percentile of market data
to support stretch goals and provide a competitive advantage for hiring key talent

Long-Term Incentives

Aligns NEOs interests with stockholders
interest to create Company and stockholder value
Provides a competitive total compensation package and creates a strong incentive by providing a wealth creation opportunity
Emphasizes performance orientation because at least half of the awards
are linked to performance goals
Using a blend of stock options and RSUs provides alignment with
stockholders as well as retention leverage
|
|
As a guideline, we generally reference the 50

In setting compensation for executive officers, the Compensation Committee considers how base salary, short-term incentives, and long-term incentives
contribute to the total compensation executives receive. The Compensation Committee also considers the value of the other compensation elements identified above and amounts executive officers may receive under various termination scenarios. While
this information may not have a direct impact on individual base salary and short-term and longer-term incentive compensation decisions, the information may be used to confirm that an executive officers overall compensation package meets the
desired objectives described above.
Description of Performance Targets

Determination of Fiscal 2010 Compensation for the Named Executive Officers
The Compensation Committee determines the compensation paid to Novells executive officers, other than the Chief Executive Officer (the
CEO). The Compensation Committee also recommends to the non-employee members of Novells Board of Directors the form and amount of the CEOs compensation, which is then submitted to the non-employee members of our Board of
Directors for consideration and approval. The process for establishing fiscal 2010 compensation for the NEO follows.
Market Data
In September 2009, the Compensation Committee, together with its independent compensation consultant, began its review of executive
compensation for fiscal 2010. The Compensation Committee reviews, among other things, an annual compensation survey that Radford Surveys + Consulting prepares (the Radford Survey). This survey provides competitive survey data and
competitive practices in executive compensation. The data in the Radford Survey includes base salary, short-term and long-term incentive pay, and total direct compensation for executives of the following high technology companies that are comparable
to Novell in annual revenue, industry segment and employment market conditions:

In the aggregate,
we found that base salaries for the executive officers were ahead of the market 50
th
percentile, target annual cash incentive was slightly ahead of the
75
th
percentile of the market data, long term incentive
values were between the 50
th
and 75
th
percentiles of the market data, and target total direct compensation
(base salary, target annual cash incentive and actual long-term incentive) for the executive officers was at the
75
th
percentile of the market data. Where individual
variations in competitive positioning exist, the Compensation Committee recognizes that this is due to the expected value of his or her contributions to the business, retention requirements, historical compensation practice, and the scope of
responsibility relative to the market data.
Determining Target Direct Compensation Elements
We use market data as a guideline to identify competitive compensation levels to understand the competitive level of pay that attracts and retains key
talent. In determining compensation for executive officers, market data serves as a reference point; however, several factors are considered in addition to market data, including:
|
|
|
unique challenges associated with managing the Companys business and expected contributions by the executive officer;
|
11
|
|
|
skills and experience of the executive officer;
|
|
|
|
relative internal value of an executive officers responsibility;
|
|
|
|
scope of responsibilities relative to the competitive survey data;
|
|
|
|
historical compensation paid to the executive;
|
|
|
|
extent of deviation from target market amounts;
|
|
|
|
the risk of the executive officer being recruited by another company; and
|
|
|
|
the CEOs recommendations for each executive (other than himself).
|
At the beginning of fiscal 2010, the Compensation Committee reviewed and approved the base salaries, the fiscal 2010 target annual cash incentive (expressed as a percentage of base salary), and long-term
incentive awards for Novells executive officers, other than the CEO. They recommended to the non-employee members of Novells Board of Directors the CEOs base salary, fiscal 2010 target annual cash incentive (expressed as a
percentage of base salary), and long-term incentive awards.
Our Board of Directors review and approval of the CEOs direct
compensation elements included consideration of those items above in addition to the CEOs self-assessment, the Compensation Committees recommendations and the individual assessments of the CEOs performance made by each of the
non-employee directors. The difference in the CEOs direct compensation levels relative to Novells other executive officers is primarily a result of the consideration of market data that reflect the greater role and responsibilities of
the CEO.
We believe that it is vital to retain executives possessing outstanding capabilities, deep industry experience, a strong commitment
to our business and a drive to add value. The Compensation Committee focuses on performance balanced by an awareness of competitive practices and alternatives for management talent, as well as the conviction that discretion and judgment are required
to address compensation issues appropriately and on a real-time basis.
Base Salary
The Compensation Committee maintained the same base salaries for the NEOs for fiscal 2010 as were applicable to fiscal 2009. This decision considered
market review findings, level of salary relative to scope of responsibility and expected contributions, and the extent of retention leverage from incentives.
Short-Term Incentives (Fiscal 2010 Annual Incentive Program)
The independent
members of our Board of Directors, with respect to the CEO, and the Compensation Committee, with respect to the other NEOs, maintained the same target annual cash incentive percentages for fiscal 2010 as were applicable to fiscal 2009.
Considerations for this determination included the market review findings and a desire to maintain consistent competitive short-term incentive targets for each executive role. Therefore, fiscal 2010 target annual cash incentive percentages were:
|
|
|
125% of base salary for Mr. Hovsepian
|
|
|
|
100% of base salary for Dana C. Russell, our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer
|
|
|
|
75% of base salary for John K. Dragoon, our Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer
|
|
|
|
70% of base salary for Colleen A. OKeefe, our Senior Vice President and General Manager, Collaboration Solutions and Global Services
|
12
|
|
|
60% of base salary for Scott N. Semel, our Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary
|
At the beginning of fiscal 2010, the Compensation Committee approved the 2010 Incentive Program, including the performance objectives for Novells
executive officers other than the CEO. The independent members of our Board of Directors approved the CEOs participation in the 2010 Incentive Program and his performance objectives.
In December 2010, the Compensation Committee reviewed and approved cash incentive payouts under the 2010 Incentive Program for all of the NEOs, other than the CEO. The Compensation Committee also
recommended to the non-employee members of our Board of Directors the CEOs annual cash incentive payout under the 2010 Incentive Program, which was approved by the independent members of our Board of Directors in December 2010.
Fiscal 2010 annual cash incentives for our executive officers were determined by the following formula:

Quantitative Performance Objectives Achievement.
To determine the weighted quantitative performance objective element under the 2010 Incentive Program, the NEOs had three quantitative performance objectives based on the Companys
performance (each as defined above under Description of Performance Targets):
|
(i)
|
non-GAAP pre-incentive operating income;
|
|
(ii)
|
non-GAAP product revenue; and
|
|
(iii)
|
total product invoice for the company or for a business unit.
|
These objectives were selected to reflect the primary focus of the Companys financial goals and assigned to each NEO to align with their role and expected contributions. If Novell achieves less than
80% of the non-GAAP pre-incentive operating income performance target, no credit was to be given for that performance category. If Novell achieves less than 95% of the non-GAAP product revenue or less than 95% of the total product invoice for the
company or for a business unit, no credit was to be given for such performance category.
As described above, for fiscal 2010, achievement of
100% of the quantitative performance objectives would correspond to 72% of the target annual cash incentive. This adjustment reflects the fact that the targets for fiscal 2010 quantitative performance objectives are lower compared to fiscal 2009. As
a result, significant over-achievement of the fiscal 2010 quantitative objectives would be required to attain 100% target annual cash incentive.
In fiscal 2010, Messrs. Hovsepian, Russell, Dragoon and Semel had the following quantitative performance objectives, corresponding weightings, actual results and the weighted achievement percentages:

Qualitative Performance
Factor.
Each of the NEOs was assigned individual qualitative performance objectives designed to drive Novells key initiatives for fiscal 2010, namely:
|
|
|
Performance: market growth;
|
|
|
|
Perception: increase pull and preference in the marketplace, convert mind share to market share, and establish Novell as a
leader in the Intelligent Workload Management market;
|
|
|
|
Products: deliver key Intelligent Workload Management products in the fiscal 2010 portfolio;
|
|
|
|
Partners: deliver growth in key alliance routes; and
|
|
|
|
People: talent development.
|
At the end of fiscal 2010, the Compensation Committee reviewed the CEOs assessment of the NEOs (other than the CEOs) performance
against the assigned qualitative performance objectives and the CEOs recommended qualitative performance objective factor for each NEO. The non-employee members of our Board of Directors reviewed the CEOs performance against his
qualitative performance objectives and determined the CEOs qualitative performance factor. The qualitative performance factor for the NEOs could range from 0 to 1.50 based on their performance.
For fiscal 2010, the qualitative performance factors received by the NEOs were based on the following:
|
|
|
Mr. Hovsepians qualitative performance factor was based on his achievement of assigned objectives including directing the Company through a
challenging year of speculation following the Companys announcement in March to conduct a thorough review of various alternatives to enhance stockholder value. During this time, Mr. Hovsepian aggressively and successfully focused the
Company to continue to serve customers while delivering strong operating results: total product invoice at 105% of target, non-GAAP operating income at 144% of target and non-GAAP product revenue at 101% of target.
|
14
|
|
|
Mr. Russells qualitative performance factor was based on his role in continuing to successfully manage the Companys financial health
while supporting and playing a key role in the review of strategic alternatives to enhance stockholder value. His focus on fiscal discipline allowed Novell to maintain operating margins during fiscal 2010 despite lower revenue. In addition,
Mr. Russell delivered a new CRM system allowing us to better understand and serve our customers and partners.
|
|
|
|
Mr. Semels qualitative performance factor was based on his strong performance throughout the Companys review of strategic
alternatives to enhance stockholder value. His contributions were above expectations as he provided key leadership during the entire strategic review along with providing legal advice, guidance and coordination
and negotiating the complex definitive acquisition documents. In addition, Mr. Semel was instrumental in successfully concluding significant litigation matters for the Company; the trial between SCO Group and Novell as a primary
example which concluded in our favor. Mr. Semel has also improved the Companys overall compliance posture.
|
|
|
|
Mr. Dragoons qualitative performance factor was based on his work in establishing Novell as a leader in the intelligent workload management
market and launching the WorkloadIQ mission brand. A third party brand tracking study shows 57% of IT executives consider Novell an above average provider of intelligent workload management solutions, ahead of our competitors.
Mr. Dragoon also exceeded the target for marketing generated pipeline by 17% while beating the competition on awareness and purchase intent as measured by a third party survey.
|
|
|
|
Ms. OKeefes qualitative performance factor was based on her outstanding leadership of the Collaboration Business Unit.
Ms. OKeefe instituted a strong and disciplined approach to investing in innovation and creating a visionary roadmap for Collaboration and OES products. This has been reflected in the reaction both internally and by various analysts and by
exceeding her invoicing target by 4%. Ms. OKeefe also attained high customer loyalty results for Services (Service Request satisfaction of 85% with the center and 91% with the field).
|
Fiscal 2010 Annual Cash Incentive Amounts.
As shown in the table below, each of the NEOs annual cash incentive amounts was determined
by multiplying their weighted quantitative performance objective (as adjusted based on the tables above), their qualitative performance factor, and their fiscal 2010 target cash incentive percentage by their base salary rate to determine the final
annual cash incentive amount.

Long Term Incentives (Equity)
As reflected in the Grants of Plan-Based Awards table below, at the beginning of fiscal 2010, the Compensation Committee granted stock options and performance-based Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) to the
NEOs, other than the CEO, and the independent members of our Board of Directors awarded stock options and performance-based RSUs to the CEO. In support of our focus on stockholder value along with consideration for competitive market practices, we
used a combination of stock options and performance-based RSUs that require increases in stock price in order to vest. These awards vest as follows:
Stock Options
|
|
|
Stock options vest over a four-year period.
|
Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units
|
|
|
Performance-based RSUs vest in three equal installments where the last reported sales price of the Companys common stock on NASDAQ for the
immediately preceding 20 consecutive trading day period equals or exceeds $5.50, $7.00 and $8.50 respectively.
|
In fiscal
2010, the Companys sales price of its common stock on NASDAQ achieved the target of $5.50 but did not achieve the $7.00 target or the $8.50 target. Accordingly, a third of the performance-based RSUs that were granted at the beginning of fiscal
2010 vested and two-thirds remain unvested.
Vesting of Prior Equity Awards
Performance-based options and performance-based RSUs granted in fiscal 2009, fiscal 2008 and fiscal 2007 vest over a four-year period based on the Companys achievement of non-GAAP product revenue,
non-GAAP total revenue and non-GAAP operating income targets. In fiscal 2010, Novell exceeded the specified non-GAAP product revenue target by more than 1% and achieved the specified non-GAAP total revenue target. Accordingly, 50% of the fiscal 2009
performance-based stock options vested and an additional 25% of the fiscal 2008 and fiscal 2007 performance-based stock options vested. Based upon fiscal 2010 performance, one tranche of the performance-based options granted in December 2007 and
December 2008 expired unvested. In fiscal 2010, Novell exceeded the non-GAAP operating income target by more than 15%. Accordingly, the remaining 50% of the fiscal 2009 performance-based RSUs vested (performance-based RSUs from fiscal 2008 and 2007
had previously vested). The vesting of performance-based RSUs from fiscal 2007 and fiscal 2008 is reflected in the Option Exercises and Stock Vested table below, along with the time-vested portions.
Performance-based options and performance-based RSUs granted in fiscal 2008 through fiscal 2009 will be eligible to vest in future fiscal year periods
based on the attainment of financial performance metrics, the form of which are set at the time of grant but the amounts of which are established at the beginning of each such fiscal year. The performance metrics are as follows:
|
|
|
for grants in fiscal 2008: non-GAAP total revenue (performance-based options); and
|
|
|
|
for grants in fiscal 2009: non-GAAP product revenue (performance-based options).
|
The likelihood that performance targets will be achieved is not known at the time of the grants of these awards because the targets are determined at the
beginning of each of the applicable fiscal years.
For equity grants issued in fiscal 2007 through fiscal 2009, Messrs. Hovsepian, Russell,
Semel, and Dragoon and Ms. OKeefe had the following financial performance measures for vesting in fiscal 2010 and achieved the following results for vesting tranches applicable in fiscal 2010:

The Merger Agreement
generally restricts, subject to certain limited exceptions, including, without limitation, Attachmates prior written consent, our ability to issue shares of our common stock during the interim period between the execution of the Merger
Agreement and the consummation of the merger (or the date on which the Merger Agreement is earlier terminated). Therefore, there have been no equity awards granted to the NEOs for fiscal 2011.
Equity Grant Practices
Under the
Companys current Equity Award Grant Policy (the Grant Policy), the Compensation Committee approves all equity awards granted to the NEOs, other than the CEO, at meetings of the Compensation Committee. Grants of equity awards to the
CEO are made by the independent members of our Board of Directors acting as a group. The Grant Policy provides that no awards will be granted to the NEOs during the period commencing at the close of business two weeks before the end of any fiscal
quarter and ending as of the close of business two trading days following the date of public disclosure by the Company of its financial results for the relevant fiscal period. All stock options are nonstatutory options and are granted at fair market
value on the date of grant (which is defined as the closing price of Novell common stock on the trading day prior to the grant date).
Under
the terms of the Companys current equity incentive plan, if any of the Companys financial statements are required to be restated as a result of errors, omissions or fraud, the Compensation Committee may direct the Company to recover from
the NEOs all or a portion of the amount of the equity award that was granted or paid in relation to each fiscal year impacted by the restatements. The amount to be recovered is to equal the amount by which the equity award or payment exceeded the
amount that would have been payable had the financial statements been filed initially as restated.
Perquisites and Executive Benefits
NEOs receive essentially the same benefits as other employees at Novell as well as the following:
|
|
|
Novell pays for and asks each NEO to undergo one annual physical examination each year. NEOs are in the position to significantly affect the success of
the Company through their leadership and expertise, and it is important to Novell that its NEOs maintain their overall health.
|
|
|
|
Novell reimburses NEOs for certain financial planning expenses that may include tax preparation and estate planning.
|
Savings and Deferred Compensation Programs
All eligible employees, including NEOs, may participate in the Novell, Inc. 401(k) Retirement and Savings Plan (401(k) Plan) and the Novell, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan. The Deferred
Compensation Plan allows eligible employees to make contributions in amounts that exceed limitations imposed by U.S. tax law on participant contributions to the 401(k) Plan. NEOs may also participate in the Novell, Inc. Stock-Based Deferred
Compensation Plan (SBDC Plan). The SBDC Plan provides a mechanism for NEOs to meet their stock ownership requirements
17
through the deferral of compensation that invests in Novell stock. Deferrals under the SBDC Plan are matched at 25% of the deferral to encourage participation, and vest over a period of five to
six years. Additional information on the SBDC Plan can be found below in the narrative following the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table. Novell does not maintain any executive pension, supplemental or other retirement plans. The Merger
Agreement generally restricts, subject to certain limited exceptions, including, without limitation, Attachmates prior written consent, our ability to issue shares of our common stock during the interim period between the execution of the
Merger Agreement and the consummation of the merger (or the date on which the Merger Agreement is earlier terminated). Therefore, because participants attain the right to receive Novell common stock under the SBDC Plan, we have suspended
participation effective January 1, 2011.
Severance and Change in Control Benefits
The NEOs are eligible for severance benefits under severance agreements with the Company. These benefits were structured based on prevailing market
practices at the time of their execution and have been periodically reviewed by the Compensation Committee to ensure they continue to reflect common market practice. These agreements provide for severance benefits in connection with a change in
control, and ensure that the NEOs are treated fairly in a situation where Novell equity may not continue to be publicly traded. Overall, the change in control provisions are designed to ensure that the NEOs evaluate potential acquisition situations
impartially and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. The severance agreements are discussed in greater detail below under Severance Agreements.
Stock Ownership Requirements
Our Executive Stock Ownership Program requires (i) our
Chief Executive Officer to own shares of our common stock having a value equal to three times his salary as of November 1, 2006, and (ii) the other NEOs to own shares of our common stock having a value equal to his or her salary as of his
or her initial participation date. The NEOs do not have a deadline for achieving their ownership requirements, but may not sell their shares of Novell stock unless and until their ownership requirements are satisfied, with certain limited
exceptions.
Qualifying Compensation
The Compensation Committee considers the potential impact of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), in determining compensation amounts and awards.
Section 162(m) disallows a tax deduction for any amount of compensation paid to certain officers that exceeds $1,000,000 except to the extent that the amount is performance-based within the meaning of Section 162(m). The
Compensation Committees goal is to preserve the deductibility of compensation to the extent possible, and the Novell, Inc. 2009 Omnibus Incentive Plan, approved by stockholders in 2009, is designed to expand the Committees ability to
ensure compensation is deductible. The Compensation Committee, however, believes that its primary objective is to drive and reward the performance that is viewed to be in the best long-term interests of the Company and its stockholders. The
Committee has determined that, based on the Companys current and anticipated tax situation, disallowing compensation deductions will not have any material cash flow impact. The Company and the Compensation Committee will continue to review the
impact of Section 162(m) going forward and will make design changes as deemed warranted.
Compensation Risk Assessment
An assessment of Novells compensation programs was conducted with the assistance of our independent compensation consultant to understand if
any risks exist that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the company. The assessment consisted of a thorough review of Novells compensation, benefit and severance programs, including various plan documents, as
well as additional business strategy and risk information. The programs review included incentive and equity plans, severance plans and benefits plans for executives and non-executive employees. Our risk assessment concluded that there are
no programs, polices or practices that would be reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the company.

Includes any amount deferred at the election of the NEO pursuant to our 401(k) Plan, Deferred Compensation Plan, or SBDC Plan. The appearance of an increase in salary
from fiscal 2008 to fiscal 2009 for Mr. Hovsepian is an artifact of timing. Mr. Hovsepians salary was established two months after the beginning of fiscal 2008. It remained at that level throughout fiscal 2008 and fiscal 2009 and was
not increased for fiscal 2010.

2010 Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End
The following table provides information on the holdings of stock options, restricted stock awards and RSUs by our Named Executive Officers as of
October 31, 2010. This table includes unexercised and unvested stock options, unvested restricted stock awards and RSUs, as well as stock options, restricted stock and RSUs with performance conditions that, as of October 31, 2010, had not

trading day of fiscal 2010.

The Deferred Compensation Plan allows eligible employees to make contributions in amounts that exceed the limitation in the 401(k)
Plan. We make a matching contribution equal to 100% of the first 4% of each participants eligible compensation deferred under the Deferred Compensation Plan, which is reduced by any matching contribution allocated to a participants
matching contribution under the 401(k) Plan in a plan year. Effective January 1, 2010, in the event of a suspension of matching contributions under the 401(k) Plan, the matching benefit received by participants under the Deferred Compensation
Plan is reduced by the maximum amount of the matching contribution of the 401(k) Plan that could have been made to the participant absent the suspension. Earnings on contributions are calculated in the same manner that earnings are calculated under
our 401(k) Plan. The SBDC Plan provides a mechanism for senior executives to meet stock ownership requirements. Under the SBDC Plan, we make a matching contribution, which cannot exceed 25% of the total amount of compensation deferred under the SBDC
Plan in a plan year. Under the Deferred Compensation Plan and the SBDC Plan, participants are permitted to defer up to 75% of base salary and 75% of annual cash incentives earned in a calendar year. As indicated above, the Merger Agreement generally
restricts, subject to certain limited exceptions, including, without limitation, Attachmates prior written consent, our ability to issue shares of our common stock during the interim period between the execution of the Merger Agreement and the
consummation of the merger (or the date on which the Merger Agreement is earlier terminated). Therefore, because participants attain the right to receive Novell common stock under the SBDC Plan, we have suspended participation effective
January 1, 2011.
Severance Agreements
Each of Messrs. Hovsepian, Russell, Semel and Dragoon and Ms. OKeefe, is a party to a severance agreement with us. The severance agreements do not provide severance benefits in the event
of their termination due to disability, death, or cause. Under their severance agreements, the NEOs are entitled to receive severance benefits upon their involuntary termination prior to a change in control and upon a change in control, which are
reflected in the tables below. The tables below provide information as required by the SEC and do not reflect the transaction described above with Attachmate.
Generally, a change in control occurs under the severance agreements: (i) upon the acquisition by an individual, entity or group of 30% or more of the combined voting power of our then outstanding
common stock; (ii) if a majority of our Board of Directors is replaced without the approval of at least two-thirds of the incumbent directors; or (iii) upon the consummation of a reorganization, merger or consolidation, a sale or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or other transaction of the Company.
Under the terms of the severance
agreements, involuntary termination prior to a change in control means termination of employment unrelated to a change in control for any reason other than cause, the NEOs death or disability. Involuntary termination prior to
a change in control also includes constructive termination prior to a change in control. Generally, in this context, cause means a determination by management, with the advice of
27
counsel, that the NEO has committed any of the following acts: (i) willful or deliberate violations of the NEOs obligations; (ii) willful misconduct that is injurious to the
Company or any subsidiary; (iii) a felony, an act of fraud against or the misappropriation of property belonging to the Company or any subsidiary; (iv) a material breach of terms of any confidentiality or proprietary information agreement
between the NEO and the Company; or (v) a material violation of Novells COBE or Employee Conduct and Standards Policy. Generally, constructive termination prior to a change in control means: (a) a substantial reduction in
the NEOs duties, authority or responsibilities; (b) a greater than 20% reduction of the NEOs base pay; or (c) the failure of the Company to obtain an assumption of the severance agreement by any successors.
Under the terms of the severance agreements, involuntary termination associated with a change in control means termination of the NEOs
employment related to a change in control by the Company for any reason other than cause, the NEOs death or disability, or on account of a constructive termination associated with a change in control. Generally, in this context
cause means a determination that: (i) the NEO has been convicted of a criminal violation involving fraud, embezzlement or theft in connection with his or her duties or in the course of his or her employment with the Company or any
subsidiary; or (ii) the NEO has committed intentional wrongful disclosure of secret processes or confidential information of the Company or any subsidiary and any such act has been demonstrably and materially harmful to the Company. Generally,
constructive termination associated with a change in control means the termination by the NEO of his or her employment with the Company as a result of one of the following events: (a) the NEOs failure to be retained in office;
(b) an adverse change in the NEOs powers, compensation and/or benefits; (c) an adverse change in the nature and/or scope of the NEOs business responsibilities; (d) a liquidation or reorganization of the Company; (e) a
significant change in the NEOs principal location of work; or (f) any material breach by the Company of the severance agreement. In connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Company will have the ability to amend the
definition of a constructive termination associated with a change in control in each of the severance agreements to clarify that upon the completion of the merger with Attachmate, each of the NEOs will be entitled to terminate his or her
employment and have such termination treated as a constructive termination associated with a change in control. Accordingly, in the event that any of the NEOs terminates his or her employment following completion of the merger, he or she
will be entitled to the severance payments and benefits described below.
Summary of Benefits
In the event of an involuntary termination prior to a change in control, the NEOs will receive the following benefits: (i) 150% of base salary,
payable in installments; (ii) incentive pay, prorated to the termination date and payable in installments; (iii) an amount not to exceed 20% of base salary for outplacement services; (iv) reimbursement for up to 12 months of continued
health and dental coverage; and (v) all earned but unpaid wages and benefits. In addition, the portion of such NEOs stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units, if any, which would have vested and become exercisable within
the one-year period after the executives termination date will become vested upon such persons termination date. Such options, plus any other unexercised options, shall remain exercisable for the longer of six months after termination or
the original term of the option (but in no event beyond the expiration of the options original term). In addition, the NEOs options, restricted stock, and restricted stock units subject to performance vesting criteria will remain
eligible to earn additional vesting during the one-year period commencing on the termination date, based on attainment of relevant performance criteria. If, and to the extent, those criteria are attained during that one-year period, the options and
restricted stock units will vest, and/or the restrictions on restricted stock will lapse (as applicable); if the performance criteria are not met during that period, no further vesting or lapse of restrictions will occur.
In the event that an involuntary termination associated with a change in control occurs within two years after the change in control or occurs
(A) not more than six months prior to a change in control or (B) following the commencement of any discussion with a third person that ultimately results in a change in control (provided that in both circumstances the change in control is
consummated within 12 months following the executives termination date), the NEOs will receive a lump sum payment equal to: (i) 200% of base salary and 200% of incentive pay; (ii) incentive pay, prorated to the termination date;
(iii) 20% of base salary for outplacement services; (iv) the amount that the executive would have received under the Companys 401(k) plan as a Company match for the 24-month period after the executives termination date; and
(v) all earned but unpaid wages and benefits. In addition, the executive will be reimbursed for up to 24 months of continued health and dental coverage. If eligible for change
28
in control benefits, the executive generally has the right to reimbursement from the Company of attorneys fees and expenses, in the event that the executive is required to enforce
his/her rights to benefits pursuant to the agreement.
The severance agreement for Mr. Hovsepian provides that his unvested equity awards
will become fully vested and/or exercisable on the date on which a change in control occurs, and his unexercised options will remain exercisable for the longer of 24 months after termination of employment or the original term of the option (but in
no event beyond the expiration of the options original term).
The severance agreements for Messrs. Russell, Semel and Dragoon and
Ms. OKeefe provide that the executives unvested equity awards will become fully vested and/or exercisable if the acquiror or successor corporation fails to provide the executive with comparable replacement grants for unvested
equity. Each NEOs unvested equity awards also become fully vested and/or exercisable upon involuntary termination associated with a change in control. In addition, the executives unexercised options will remain exercisable for the longer
of 24 months after termination of employment or the original term of the option (but in no event beyond the expiration of the options original term).
In addition, the NEOs are eligible to receive a gross-up payment to cover any federal excise taxes owed by the executive on any change in control-related severance payments and benefits if the net
after-tax benefit to the executive of receiving the gross-up payment exceeds the maximum dollar amount that may be paid under Code Section 280G without imposition of an excise tax under Code Section 4999 by more than ten percent. The
gross-up payment would cover (1) the amount of federal excise taxes and (2) the additional income taxes resulting from payment of the gross-up.
For purposes of calculating the severance payment amounts, base salary is defined as the greater of (i) the executives annual base salary rate as in effect immediately preceding the
executives termination date, or (ii) the executives highest annual base salary rate as in effect in any of the three (3) full calendar years preceding the executives termination date, and incentive pay is
defined as the greater of (i) the executives maximum target annual cash incentive for which the executive was eligible during the period that includes the termination date, or (ii) the highest aggregate annual cash incentive payment
to the executive during any of the three (3) full calendar years prior to the executives termination date.
The severance
agreements also contain release, confidentiality, non-competition and non-solicitation provisions.
Mr. Hovsepian
The severance agreement for Mr. Hovsepian also provides that he may elect to receive the following separation benefits if he provides notice of
resignation and resigns voluntarily within one year after the date he is no longer the Chief Executive Officer of the Company: (i) 150% of base salary; (ii) incentive pay, prorated to the termination date; and (iii) 12 months of
continued health and dental coverage. Half of the cash benefits will be paid in a lump sum in the seventh month following his termination date and the remaining balance will be paid in monthly installments following the month in which the lump sum
is paid. In addition, any unvested stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units that are subject to time-based vesting criteria will vest and/or become exercisable, and any options that vest plus any other unexercised options will
remain exercisable until the latest of December 31 of the year of termination, the 15th day of the third month following his termination, or the original term of the option (but in no event beyond the expiration of the options original
term). Any outstanding options, restricted stock and restricted stock units that are subject to performance vesting criteria will continue in effect, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the relevant grant agreement. If
Mr. Hovsepian elects to receive the separation benefits, he will be deemed to waive any right to the severance benefits under the severance agreement and he will not be subject to the covenant not to compete.

Amounts include 200% of the NEOs base salary and 200% of incentive pay, prorated incentive pay, and an amount equal to 20% of base salary for outplacement
services. As described in footnote (4) below, Mr. Hovsepians Lump Sum Cash Payment has been reduced such that he would not be subject to the excise tax under Section 280G of the Code. The total cutback amount is $745,897.

Amounts reflect the total amount that the NEO would receive under the Companys 401(k) Plan as a Company match if the executive was eligible to participate in the

|
(4)
|
Only Messrs. Russell, Dragoon and Semel would be subject to the excise tax and eligible for a gross-up payment. The gross-up payment covers the cash severance payments
and the value of accelerated vesting of equity awards, described below. For purposes of calculating the gross-up payments, the value of accelerated vesting of equity awards was determined in accordance with Section 280G of the Code. The total
parachute value associated with Mr. Hovsepians payments exceeds his Safe Harbor Threshold by less than 110%, so his payments would be cut back such that he would not be subject to the excise tax. As described above, the total amount
required to be cut back is $745,897.

All cash payments will be provided after a period of six months following the termination event, in order to accommodate requirements under Section 409A of the

Estimated Value of Accelerated Vesting of Equity Awards Upon Change in Control and Involuntary Termination Associated
with a Change in Control (As of October 31, 2010)
In addition to the cash severance payments described above, the severance
agreements provide for accelerated vesting of outstanding equity awards. The severance agreement for Mr. Hovsepian provides that the executives unvested equity awards will become fully vested and/or exercisable on the date on which a
change in control occurs. The severance agreements for Messrs. Russell, Semel and Dragoon and Ms. OKeefe provide that their unvested equity awards will become fully vested and/or exercisable if the acquiror or successor corporation fails
to provide comparable replacement grants for unvested equity. Messrs. Russell, Semel and Dragoon and Ms. OKeefes unvested equity awards also become fully vested and/or exercisable upon involuntary termination associated with a
change in control.

Includes the 25% Match of deferred amounts, as described in the narrative below.

|
Ms. Malone retired from our Board of Directors effective as of the date of the 2010 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Mr. Plaskett and Ms. White held
office until the date of the 2010 Annual Meeting and did not seek re-election.
|
The primary goal of our director compensation
program is to support the achievement of our performance objectives and to attract and retain highly qualified directors. Compensation of our non-employee directors is as follows:
|
|
|
the annual board retainer for the Chairman of the Board of Directors is $125,000;
|
|
|
|
the annual board retainer for all other members of our Board of Directors is $50,000;
|
|
|
|
the annual retainer for service as chairperson of the Audit Committee is $20,000;
|
|
|
|
the annual retainer for service as chairperson of all other committees of our Board of Directors is $10,000;
|
|
|
|
fee for attendance at each meeting of our Board of Directors is $1,500;
|
|
|
|
fee for attendance at each committee meeting of our Board of Directors is $1,500; and
|
|
|
|
equity awards as described below.
|
Our non-employee directors are reimbursed for their expenses incurred in attending meetings of our Board of Directors and its committees.
In fiscal 2010, non-employee directors were permitted to elect to have all or a portion of their annual board retainer deferred through the purchase of CSEs and to designate a date in the future on which
such CSEs will be paid out in shares of our common stock. If a non-employee director did not designate a pay-out date, such directors CSEs will be paid out at the time of his or her resignation from our Board of Directors. Subject to the
vesting provisions described below, the annual board retainer paid to any non-employee director who elected to defer all or a portion of
33
his or her annual board retainer was increased by an amount (such amount to be referred to as the Match) equal to 25% of the amount of the deferred retainer, provided that the Match
was used solely to purchase additional CSEs. The CSEs purchased with the Match were credited to a separate bookkeeping account from the CSEs purchased with the deferred retainer. In the event that any non-employee director ceases to serve as a
member of our Board of Directors prior to the third anniversary of the date on which CSEs were purchased with a Match, all CSEs purchased with such Match will be forfeited and such director will no longer have any rights with respect to such Match
or such CSEs.
In June 2010, each non-employee director received an annual equity award with a target value of $130,000 that was comprised of
stock options with a grant date fair value of $43,000 and restricted stock or restricted stock units with a grant date fair value of $87,000 (the Annual Equity Award). The stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units
comprising the Annual Equity Award vest upon the earlier to occur of (i) the first anniversary of the grant date; or (ii) the business day prior to the date of the next annual meeting of stockholders following the grant date. In addition,
(a) upon the retirement of a non-employee director, the vesting of all unvested stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units will accelerate, and vested stock options will remain exercisable for twelve months following
retirement; (b) upon the disability of a non-employee director, there will be no acceleration of unvested stock options, restricted stock and/or restricted stock units, but vested stock options will remain exercisable for twelve months
following a disability; and (c) upon the death of a non-employee director, there will be an accelerated vesting of those stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units that would have vested within twelve months following such
death had the non-employee director not died and remained a non-employee director, and vested stock options will remain exercisable for twelve months following the death of a non-employee director. New non-employee directors receive a one-time grant
of 50,000 stock options that vest in equal portions on the first two anniversaries of the date of grant.
In December 2009, the Company
established the 2009 Directors Deferral Plan (the Directors Plan), a sub-plan of the 2009 Omnibus Incentive Plan. Beginning in December 2009, pursuant to the terms of the Directors Plan, non-employee directors were permitted to defer
their annual board retainers payable in the following calendar year through the purchase of CSEs and their receipt of the shares underlying the restricted stock units portion of the Annual Equity Award awarded in the following calendar
year. Under the Directors Plan, the CSEs purchased with annual board retainers and the shares payable upon the vesting of restricted stock units will be paid out on the earliest to occur of (a) a change of control, (b) termination of
a non-employee directors service with the Company, or (c) if elected, a designated payout date prior to such non-employee directors termination of service (the Deferral Payment Date). Non-employee directors who
defer their annual board retainers will receive a Match, which will be used solely to purchase additional CSEs. Unlike the CSEs purchased with a non-employee directors annual board retainer, which are 100% vested at all times, the CSEs
purchased with the Match become 100% vested on the earliest to occur of (i) the third anniversary of the last date CSEs are purchased with the Match in the relevant calendar year, (ii) a change of control, (iii) the non-employee
directors retirement, or (iv) the non-employee directors death. The vested CSEs purchased with the Match are paid to the non-employee director on the earliest to occur of (a) his or her termination of service with the
Company, (b) a change of control, or (c) the later to occur of the Deferral Payment Date or the date on which such CSEs vest. The Company will maintain separate bookkeeping accounts for the CSEs purchased with the deferred retainer,
the CSEs purchased with the Match and the deferred restricted stock units. If the Company pays dividends, non-employee directors will receive dividend equivalents on the portion of their deferral accounts that is vested on the dividend record
date. Non-employee director deferral elections made prior to the effective date of the Directors Plan will remain in place in accordance with the terms of the deferral program in place at the time the deferral elections were made and will not
be subject to the terms of the Directors Plan. Non-employee director deferral elections made on and after the effective date of the Directors Plan will be subject to the terms of the Directors Plan.
We had a Directors Charitable Award Program (the Charitable Program) in which members of our Board of Directors were eligible to
participate, subject to vesting requirements. Our Board of Directors terminated the Charitable Program with respect to all persons joining our Board of Directors after January 7, 2003, but has kept the program in place with respect to those
persons who were eligible directors on or before January 7, 2003. The Company chose life insurance policies, purchased by the Company on the lives of the participants, as the funding vehicle for the Charitable Program. Upon the death of a
participating director, the Company will donate $1,000,000 (paid in ten equal annual installments) to non-profit organizations recommended by the director. Proceeds from the life insurance death benefits are used to offset donations paid. Individual
directors derive no financial benefit from
34
the Charitable Program since all available insurance proceeds and tax deductions accrue solely to the Company. In fiscal 2010, the Company did not incur any costs to fund the Charitable Program.
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
The Compensation Committee is currently comprised of Messrs. Greenfield, who serves as its Chairperson, and Corrado and Dr. Poduska. Mr. Plaskett. and Ms. White held office and were members
of the Compensation Committee until the date of our 2010 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, April 19, 2010, at which they did not seek re-election. No member of the Compensation Committee has ever been an officer or employee of Novell or of any of
our subsidiaries or affiliates. During fiscal 2010, none of our executive officers served on the board of directors or on the compensation committee of any other entity, any officers of which served either on our Compensation Committee or on our
Board of Directors.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and Director Independence
|
Related Person Transactions Policy and Procedures
Our Related Person Transactions Policy and Procedures (the Policy) recognizes that certain transactions between Novell and Related Persons (as defined below) are routine and consistent with
Novells best interests and that, accordingly, they should be permissible. The Policy, which was adopted by our Board of Directors, is designed to address the reporting, review and approval of such transactions and to provide guidance to the
Corporate Governance Committee in evaluating whether any such transaction gives rise, or potentially gives rise, to a conflict of interest. Generally speaking, a Related Person Transaction is a transaction, arrangement or relationship
with Novell in an amount exceeding $120,000 in which a Related Person has a direct or indirect material interest. Generally, a Related Person is: (a) any person who is or, since the beginning of Novells last fiscal year was, a director,
executive officer or director nominee of Novell; (b) a beneficial owner of more than five percent (5%) of Novell common stock; or (c) a family member of any person in either (a) or (b), which includes a person (other than a
tenant or employee) sharing the household of any person in either (a) or (b). Under the Policy, director nominees, directors and executive officers are required to respond to questionnaires prepared by Novell annually, which are
37
intended to, among other things, assist Novell in identifying Related Persons subject to the Policy and identifying existing, completed or proposed Related Person Transactions. Every person who
has completed or who is required to complete the questionnaire must promptly inform Novell of any changes to information previously provided. In the event that a possible Related Person Transaction is identified from responses to the questionnaires
or information provided to Novells General Counsel, the General Counsel will obtain and review all information necessary for a complete assessment of the transaction, and will make a preliminary conclusion as to whether a Related Person
Transaction actually exists. If the General Counsels preliminary conclusion is that the transaction would be a Related Person Transaction, the General Counsels preliminary conclusion and all relevant information concerning the
transaction will be presented promptly to the Corporate Governance Committee for its consideration of the transaction. If the General Counsels preliminary conclusion is that the transaction would not be a Related Person Transaction, the
General Counsels preliminary conclusion and rationale for such conclusion will be presented to the Corporate Governance Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting.
Director Independence
Our Board of Directors has determined that, of its current
directors, Albert Aiello, Fred Corrado, Richard L. Crandall, Gary G. Greenfield, Judith H. Hamilton, Patrick S. Jones, Richard L. Nolan, and John W. Poduska, Sr. are independent as defined by the listing standards of NASDAQ
currently in effect and approved by the SEC and previously determined that Ms. Malone, who retired as of the date of our 2010 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, and Mr. Plaskett and Ms. White, who held office until such date and did not
seek re-election, were independent as defined by the listing standards of NASDAQ then in effect and approved by the SEC. In determining that these directors are independent, our Board of Directors considered Mr. Crandalls role
as the Chairman of the Enterprise Software Roundtable, an organization of the senior leadership of more than 35 of the largest software companies of which we have been a member for the past several years; Mr. Greenfields receipt of funds
in connection with Novells acquisition of Managed Object Solutions, Inc. (Managed Objects), of which he served as a non-employee director, in November 2008, and his relationships with Francisco Partners, L.P., one of the principal
shareholders of Attachmate; Ms. Hamiltons position as a non-employee director of R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company, which provides printing services to Novell; Dr. Poduskas prior ownership interest in a former shareholder
of Managed Objects; and Mr. Aiellos role as the chief executive officer of a privately held Fidelity Investments company and Novells retention of Fidelity to manage its employee 401(k) benefit plan. Our Board of Directors has also
determined that all members of the Compensation Committee meet the outside director standard for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Code. All members of the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, and the Corporate Governance
Committee satisfy the independence and/or outside directorship standards applicable to those committees. Ronald W. Hovsepian, our Chief Executive Officer and a member of our Board of Directors, is not independent.

Principal Accounting Fees and Services
|
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC) served as our independent registered public accounting firm and audited our consolidated financial statements and our internal control over financial reporting
for fiscal 2010 and 2009, and performed audit-related services and consultation in connection with various accounting and financial reporting matters.
Fees Billed to Novell by PwC during Fiscal 2010 and 2009
Audit Fees
The aggregate fees billed by PwC for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2010 and October 31, 2009 for services rendered for
the integrated audit of our internal control over financial reporting and our annual consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10-K and reviews of our interim consolidated financial statements included in our Quarterly Reports on
Form 10-Q, including services related thereto, as well as the statutory audits of the financial statements of certain of our foreign subsidiaries, were $3.5 million and $3.6 million, respectively.
38
Audit-Related Fees
The aggregate fees billed by PwC for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2010 and October 31, 2009 for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the
integrated audit or reviews of our financial statements and are not reported as Audit Fees, were $2,000 for each year, which was a license fee for an accounting research tool.
Tax Fees
We incurred no tax compliance or advisory fees from PwC for the fiscal
years ended October 31, 2010 and October 31, 2009.
All Other Fees
There were no fees billed by PwC for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2010 and October 31, 2009 for products and services other than those
described above.
Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures
All audit and non-audit services to be performed by our independent registered public accounting firm must be approved in advance by the Audit Committee. As permitted by the SECs rules, the Audit
Committee has authorized each of its members to pre-approve audit, audit-related, tax and non-audit services, provided that such approved service is reported to the full Audit Committee at its next meeting.
As early as practicable in each fiscal year, the independent registered public accounting firm provides to the Audit Committee a schedule of the audit
and other services that the independent registered public accounting firm expects to provide or may provide during the fiscal year. The schedule is specific as to the nature of the proposed services, the proposed fees and other details that the
Audit Committee may request. The Audit Committee, by resolution, authorizes or declines the proposed services. Upon approval, this schedule serves as the budget for fees by specific activity or service for the next twelve months.
A schedule of additional services proposed to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm, or proposed revisions to services already
approved, along with associated proposed fees, may be presented to the Audit Committee for their consideration and approval at any time. The schedule will be specific as to the nature of the proposed service, the proposed fee, and other details that
the Audit Committee may request. The Audit Committee will by resolution authorize or decline authorization for each proposed new service.
Applicable SEC rules and regulations permit waiver of the pre-approval requirements for services other than audit, review or attest services if certain
conditions are met. None of the services characterized above as Audit-Related and Tax were provided pursuant to such a waiver in fiscal 2010 or 2009.
