On October 16, 2006, in connection with the transactions described below under Item 2.01, Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets, Old SAIC and New SAIC (each as defined in Item 2.01) entered into a certain Assignment and Assumption Agreement pursuant to which New SAIC agreed to assume and perform certain obligations of Old SAIC with respect to (i) those certain Indemnification Agreements entered into between Old SAIC and its directors and executive officers beginning November 21, 2005 and (ii) those certain Severance Protection Agreements entered into between Old SAIC and its directors and executive officers beginning September 1, 2005.

The description set forth above is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K (“Current Report”), the terms of which are incorporated into this Current Report by reference.

Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

On October 16, 2006, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), as amended and restated July 24, 2006, by and among Science Applications International Corporation (“Old SAIC”), SAIC, Inc., a newly-formed Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Old SAIC (“New SAIC”) and SAIC Merger Sub, Inc., a newly-formed Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of New SAIC (“SAIC Merger Sub”), SAIC Merger Sub merged with and into Old SAIC (the “Reorganization Merger”). As a result of the Reorganization Merger, Old SAIC became a wholly-owned subsidiary of New SAIC.

Pursuant to the Reorganization Merger, each share of outstanding class A common stock of Old SAIC (“Old SAIC Class A Common Stock”) was converted into the right to receive two shares of class A preferred stock of New SAIC (“New SAIC Class A Preferred Stock”) and each share of Old SAIC class B common stock (“Old SAIC Class B Common Stock”) was converted, subject to the exercise of appraisal rights, into the right to receive 40 shares of New SAIC Class A Preferred Stock. The Old SAIC Class A Common Stock and the Old SAIC Class B Common Stock are sometimes collectively referred to as the “Old SAIC Common Stock.”

The issuance of the New SAIC Class A Preferred Stock pursuant to the Reorganization Merger was registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to New SAIC’s Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-128022) (the “S-4 Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on September 1, 2005 and declared effective on July 26, 2006. The definitive proxy statement/prospectus of New SAIC dated August 1, 2006 that forms a part of the S-4 Registration Statement (the “Proxy Statement/Prospectus”) contains additional information about the Reorganization Merger, including information concerning the interests of directors and executive officers of Old SAIC and New SAIC in the Reorganization Merger. Pursuant to Rule 12g-3(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the New SAIC Class A Preferred Stock is deemed to be registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, effective October 16, 2006.

New SAIC also filed a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-128021) (the “S-1 Registration Statement”) with the SEC on September 1, 2005 with respect to shares of common stock of New SAIC (“New SAIC Common Stock”), which was declared effective on October 12, 2006 and includes the final prospectus of New SAIC dated October 12, 2006 that forms a part of the S-1 Registration Statement (the “Final Prospectus”). The New SAIC Common Stock was registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act on October 12, 2006 and began trading on the New York Stock Exchange on October 13, 2006 under the symbol “SAI.” Old SAIC intends to file a report on Form 15 with the SEC to terminate the registration under the Exchange Act of the Old SAIC Common Stock.


The description of the New SAIC Common Stock and New SAIC Class A Preferred Stock contained under the caption “Description of Capital Stock” in the Final Prospectus is incorporated herein by reference.

The description of the Reorganization Merger set forth above is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement and Plan of Merger filed as Exhibit 2.1 to New SAIC’s Post-Effective Amendment No. 3 to the S-4 Registration Statement filed with the SEC on July 25, 2006, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.
