CPWR Ocean Thermal Energy Corporation (CE)

Compuware Corporation (“Compuware”) (Nasdaq: CPWR), the technology performance company, today announced that it has completed its previously announced distribution of all of its 31,384,920 shares of Covisint Corporation (“Covisint”) (Nasdaq: COVS) common stock as a pro rata dividend on shares of Compuware common stock, and on shares of Compuware common stock deliverable under restricted stock units relating to Compuware common stock (“RSUs”), outstanding on October 20, 2014, the record date.

Based on the number of Compuware shares outstanding and shares deliverable under RSUs as of October 20, 2014, the record date for the distribution, holders of Compuware common stock received 0.14025466 shares of Covisint common stock in the distribution with respect to each outstanding share of Compuware common stock they owned at the close of business on the record date, and holders of RSUs received 0.14025466 shares of Covisint common stock in the distribution with respect to each share of Compuware common stock deliverable under the RSUs they held at the close of business on the record date.

Fractional shares of Covisint common stock were not distributed to Compuware shareholders or RSU holders. Instead, the fractional shares of Covisint common stock will be aggregated and sold in the open market, with the net proceeds distributed pro rata in the form of cash payments to Compuware shareholders and RSU holders who would otherwise receive Covisint fractional shares. The spin-off is expected to be taxable for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Thus, the value of the Covisint common stock, as well as any cash received in lieu of fractional shares, will generally be taxable. Compuware shareholders and RSU holders should consult their tax advisors with respect to U.S. federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of the distribution, including, without limitation, the potential imposition of withholding taxes on the distribution of Covisint common stock.

With the completion of the distribution, Compuware no longer owns shares of Covisint common stock.
