Item 1.01.    Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On November 11, 2013, 8x8, Inc. ("8x8") entered into a share purchase agreement with the shareholders and optionholders of Voicenet Solutions Limited ("Voicenet"), a provider of cloud communications and collaboration services in the United Kingdom (the "Transaction"). A copy of the agreement is filed as Exhibit 2.2. The description of the Transaction provided in this report is a summary only, and the agreement should be read for the complete terms of the Transaction. The agreement provides for 8x8 to purchase all of the shares of Voicenet for approximately $18.4 million in cash, of which approximately $15.4 million would be paid at closing and the remaining $3.0 million would be placed in escrow and eligible for release to the Voicenet shareholders and optionholders in installments on the first and second anniversaries of the closing date. The shares of Voicenet would be acquired and held by a wholly-owned subsidiary of 8x8 recently formed in the United Kingdom, such that Voicenet would become an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of 8x8 upon the closing of the Transaction. The Transaction is expected to close by the end of the current fiscal quarter and is subject to customary closing conditions. A copy of the press release issued by 8x8 concerning the Transaction is filed as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference in partial response to this item.
