Jim, Thank you so much for masterfully navigating VSA through our acquisition by Eclipsys.The last six months have been a real test of our perseverance.As expected, your team rose to the challenge!Looking through my notes, I was surprised by the amount of areas that your team has positively touched throughout the process. Your team: · Facilitated strategy meetings ·Reviewed our business plan and financial statements ·Authored an executive summary and the 70 page “Book” ·Authored a market analysis and corporate valuation ·Managed weekly team calls ·Exposed us to hundreds of potential buyers ·Secured dozens of Confidentiality Agreements ·Facilitated all web demo’s and corporate visits ·Negotiated the Letter of Intent ·Managed the entire Due Diligence process ·Managed expert input from our legal and tax professionals ·Negotiated the Definitive Agreement ·Managed the Closing Process and ·Most importantly, your team provided on-going support during our post-acquisition transition into Eclipsys Since your team led the negotiations, we were able to preserve a great working relationship with the buyer.Most importantly, your leadership in the overall acquisition process allowed the VSA team to focus on our Clients and not the hour-to-hour gyrations of the deal.Your team was always straight and direct which is very important to me.Lastly, you earned my implicit trust and confidence.I never doubted that my “safety net” was always in place and our best interests were top priority. This project was not simply selling a company.For us, you crafted our futures and we couldn’t be happier with the results!!! Thank you.
