Announces Successful Completion of Ansoft Acquisition and Names Dr. Zoltan J. Cendes to ANSYS, Inc. Board of Directors 31 July 2008 ANSYS, Inc. announced the completed the acquisition of Ansoft Corporation in a series of mergers for approximately 12.2 million shares of ANSYS common stock, including 1.9 million shares pursuant to assumed stock options, and approximately $387 million in cash, plus expenses. ANSYS expects the acquisition to be modestly accretive to earnings the first twelve months, excluding acquisition-related costs, amortization of intangibles, the impact of deferred revenue purchase accounting treatment and expensing of stock compensation. The Company used a combination of existing cash and proceeds from approximately $355 million of committed bank financing to fund the transaction. Ansoft is a leading developer of high-performance EDA software. The software is based on more than 25 years of research and development by experts in electromagnetics, circuit and system simulation. Engineers use Ansoft products to simulate high-performance electronics designs found in mobile communication and Internet devices, broadband networking components and systems, integrated circuits, printed circuit boards and electromechanical systems. The company's products are used by blue chip companies as well as small- and medium-sized enterprises around the world. Today, electronics simulation technology is used in almost every industry sector and manufactured product. Jim Cashman, ANSYS President and CEO added, "Finalizing the acquisition of Ansoft is great news for us, our customers and our partners. We are very excited to be able to move forward today as a unified company and begin executing our strategy for the future." According to ANSYS the combination of ANSYS' and Ansoft's software products and services is expected to give ANSYS the most comprehensive, independent engineering simulation software offerings in the industry, reaffirming and strengthening ANSYS' commitment to open interface and flexible simulation solutions that are primarily driven by customer demand and choice. With over 60 direct sales offices and 21 development centers, on three continents, the combined company will employ approximately 1,700 people. "With the operations and technology synergies that Ansoft and ANSYS share, we are confident that we can meet the needs of the CAE community for simulation software and services in a highly effective manner," said Dr. Zoltan Cendes, founder and Chief Technology Officer of Ansoft, who will be a Chief Page 2 CIMdata PLM Industry Summary Technology Officer with ANSYS, as well as a new member of the ANSYS board of directors. Prior to forming Ansoft in 1984, Dr. Cendes served six years with the General Electric Corp., first in the large steam turbine generator division and then in the corporate research and development center, where he was responsible for developing finite element computer codes. In 1980, he was appointed associate professor of electrical engineering at McGill University, Montreal, Canada. In 1982, he joined the faculty of electrical and computer engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA, where he was a professor until 1996. Dr. Cendes received his MS and doctoral degrees in electrical engineering from McGill University. A fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), Dr. Cendes received the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society (IEEE AP-S) Distinguished Achievement Award in 2008. In addition, he has served on the editorial board of IEEE Spectrum, on the International Steering Committee of the COMPUMAG Conference, and as an IEEE AP-S Distinguished Lecturer. "We are delighted to welcome Zol to the board," said Peter J. Smith, Chairman of ANSYS. "He has clearly done a terrific job of building Ansoft as a world class developer of electronic design automation software and we look forward to his contributions as a director of ANSYS. Like ANSYS, Ansoft is very focused on technology leadership and innovation and Zol's experience and insight will be most helpful

  • Finally—Winning the Indianapolis 500 — 2011
    P274-283h_Motorsports3-JAN15_Lr1_qxd_P274-283h 1/20/15 12:36 PM Page 274 {}MIKE CURB : 50 Years FINALLY—WINNING THE INDIANAPOLIS 500 — 2011 “Keep the 98 car running boys.” With those impassioned words, famed race car owner J.C. Agajanian in his hospital room shortly before his death requested that his son, Cary Agajanian, and Mike Curb continue the heritage of the 98 car made famous by Parnelli Jones’ victory in the 1963 Indianapolis 500. In 2011, almost 50 years later, Mike and Cary and their No. 98 car have in spectacular style honored J.C. Agajanian’s legacy by capturing the victory in the 100th running of the most storied event in the sporting world. In addition to owning the winning car, Curb feels fortunate to have been partnered with the very talented Bryan Herta and Steve Newey. Curb Records also teamed with Big Machine and Justin Timberlake’s William Rast Jeans Company to co-sponsor the 98 car in the Centennial Indy 500, ending up in Victory Circle after a dramatic last-lap win by driver Dan Wheldon. The Indianapolis Speedway referred to Wheldon’s 2011 victory as the most important race in history. Over the course of 200 laps and 500 miles, the lead changed 23 times, with 10 different drivers in the front of the field. Wheldon had run well all day, and with only 10 laps remaining, he passed Bertrand Baguette and Scott Dixon to put himself in second position, with an opportunity to win. Rookie J.R. Hildebrand was on the way to the checkered flag when he hit the wall exiting Turn 4, allowing Wheldon to pass for the victory at Indy.
