Other Events
On February 22, 2010, Satyam Computer Services Limited (“Satyam”) filed a lawsuit against Upaid Systems, Ltd. (“Upaid”) in state court in the State of New York, County of New York (U.S.), seeking a declaration regarding the Settlement Agreement between Upaid and Satyam previously disclosed in a Form 6-K furnished to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on December 9, 2009. As contemplated by the Settlement Agreement, the parties have subsequently, among other things, entered into an Escrow Agreement dated December 10, 2009, and Satyam has deposited the entire $70 million settlement amount into the escrow account provided for under the Escrow Agreement.
In the lawsuit filed on February 22, 2010, Satyam is asking the New York Court for
     A. A declaration that
(1) the Settlement Agreement is valid and enforceable; (2) the Escrow Agreement is valid and enforceable; (3) under the terms of the Agreements, the disbursement of funds from the Escrow Account must be made in accordance with Indian law, including any requirement to deduct taxes from the Settlement Amounts prior to disbursement; (4) Upaid is solely responsible for any tax liability arising from that $70 million settlement payment, including responsibility for complying with tax deduction requirements; (5) to the extent there is any tax deduction required, it shall be deducted from the $70 million, plus interest, currently in the escrow account that would otherwise be payable to Upaid; (6) Satyam has discharged its obligations under the Settlement Agreement and shall owe nothing further to Upaid; and (7) Satyam is entitled to receive from Upaid all the benefits of the Settlement Agreement, including the release of claims, license of intellectual property and dismissal of pending litigation.
