Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On June 15, 2009, The SCO Group, Inc., (the “Company”) executed and delivered, subject to Bankruptcy Court approval upon notice and a hearing, a definitive agreement to provide for the sale of a substantial portion of its assets and the assignment of certain of its liabilities to unXis, Inc. (the “Agreement”). The Company entered into the Agreement with SCO Operations, Inc. and SCO Global, Inc., each a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (collectively, the “Sellers”), and unXis, Inc. (the “Purchaser”).

Pursuant to the Agreement, and upon Bankruptcy Court approval thereof, the Sellers agree to sell to the Purchaser, at closing under the Agreement, all rights it will require to operate the UNIX business in the future. In addition, the sale will include the Company’s equity interests in certain foreign subsidiaries, or alternatively, selected assets of such foreign subsidiaries. Under the Agreement, the Company will retain the UNIX related rights and claims the Company requires to continue pursuing its pending litigation and related claims. The aggregate purchase price is $5,250,000, plus the Purchaser’s assumption of certain “assumed liabilities” as described in the Agreement.

The purchase price is payable at closing in the form of a $250,000 cash deposit presently held in escrow by the Company’s counsel, a letter of credit for $2,150,000 (the “Letter of Credit-Balance”), and a second letter of credit for $2,850,000 (the “Letter of Credit-Sun”) required to be posted by the Purchaser as a source of funds to pay, if necessary, Novell’s November 20, 2008 judgment against the Company (the “Novell Judgment”) that is currently under appeal (the “Appeal”).

At closing under the Agreement, the cash deposit is required to be paid to the Sellers and the Letter of Credit-Balance may be drawn upon by the Sellers. The Letter of Credit-Sun is required to be posted in escrow concurrently with the closing and to be held pending adjudication of the Appeal. If and when monies are determined by final adjudication to be due to Novell on account of the Novell Judgment, the Letter of Credit-Sun is to be drawn upon and applied to the extent necessary to pay Novell the amount determined to be due to Novell on account of the claims underlying the Novell Judgment. If no decision is rendered in connection with the Appeal by August 31, 2009, or if for any reason the Letter of Credit-Sun is not drawn upon December 31, 2009, then, the Letter of Credit-Sun will terminate as of such date, and the Purchaser will have no obligation to pay the portion of the purchase price represented by the Letter of Credit-Sun.

If the Appeal is reversed or remanded in whole or in part by no later than August 31, 2009, the Letter of Credit-Sun may not be drawn upon until a final non-appealable judgment is entered on the claims that are the subject of the Novell Judgment; and in such event the Purchaser is granted certain rights with respect to further appellate efforts.

Certain assets are excluded from the sale, and retained by the Sellers. The excluded or retained assets include, without limitation, the purchase price, the Company’s “Java Patent” and “Me Inc.” products and business, as described in the Agreement, cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, equity interests in subsidiaries other than the particular foreign subsidiaries to be acquired by the Purchaser, contracts other than designated assumed contracts, and certain copyrights, contract rights and litigation rights pertaining to the Company’s pending litigation against Novell, IBM, Red Hat, Inc. and AutoZone, Inc. (the “Retained SCO Rights”). The Retained SCO Rights include rights to assert claims against certain third parties, other than most

material customers of unXis, based on allegations that the Linux operating system or use of Linux-based products infringes the Retained SCO Rights. The Retained SCO Rights are subject to releases and covenants not to sue, and to various qualifications and conditions, including transfer rights in favor of the Purchaser upon circumstances stated in the Agreement.

The Agreement is subject to various closing conditions, including without limitation, approval by the Bankruptcy Court, and approval of the United States government’s Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States. Upon closing, the employment of various employees will be terminated and certain identified employees will be offered employment with the Purchaser. The Sellers will be subject to certain non-compete and non-solicitation covenants after closing, and the Company’s chief executive officer will be subject to a non-compete agreement.

The foregoing description of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Agreement which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
