Introduction

This Amendment No. 5 amends and supplements the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ SEC ”) on January 25, 2012 (the “ Schedule 14D-9 ”) by Convio, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “ Company ” or “ Convio ”), and amended on January 31, 2012, February 7, 2012, February 17, 2012 and March 7, 2012 relating to the tender offer by Caribou Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“ Purchaser ”), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Blackbaud, Inc. (“ Blackbaud ” or “ Parent ”), to purchase all issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share of the Company (“ Common Stock ”) at a purchase price of $16.00 per share, payable net to seller in cash, without interest (the “ Offer Price ”). The tender offer is disclosed in the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (together with any exhibits thereto, as it may be amended and/or supplemented, the “ Schedule TO ”), filed by Purchaser and Parent with the SEC on January 25, 2012, and is upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated January 25, 2012 (as it may be amended and/or supplemented, the “ Offer to Purchase ”), and in the related Letter of Transmittal (as it may be amended and/or supplemented, the “ Letter of Transmittal ” and, together with the Offer to Purchase, the “ Offer ”). The Offer to Purchase and the Letter of Transmittal are filed as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B) to the Schedule TO, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference. Any capitalized term used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Schedule 14D-9.

Except as otherwise set forth below, the information in the Schedule 14D-9 remains unchanged and is incorporated by reference as relevant to the items in this Amendment No. 5. This Amendment No. 5 is being filed to reflect certain updates as reflected below.

 

Item 8. Additional Information

Item 8 of the Schedule 14D-9 is hereby amended and supplemented by inserting the following paragraph immediately following the paragraph under the heading “Extension of the Offer”:

“On March 21, 2012, in conjunction with the FTC and the Antitrust Division’s continued review of information regarding the Offer and the Merger and upon the written request of the Company, Purchaser extended the expiration of the Offer for a period of ten business days consistent with the terms of the Merger Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Purchaser is required, at the written request of the Company, to extend the expiration of the Offer, in increments of no more than ten business days each, if at the initial or any subsequent scheduled Expiration Date any of the conditions to the Purchaser’s obligation to accept Common Stock of the Company is not satisfied or waived. The Offer is now scheduled to expire at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on April 4, 2012, unless further extended. The Offer was previously scheduled to expire at 12:00 midnight, New York City time on March 21, 2012.”

 


After due inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
