Item 8.01. Other Events.
 
On September 16, 2010, Albert Goltz filed a putative class action suit challenging the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Agreement”) by and between Otix Global, Inc. (“Otix”), William Demant Holding A/S, and OI Merger Sub, Inc. (the “Action”).  On November 17, 2010, the parties to the Action entered into a Memorandum of Understanding that sets forth the principal terms of a settlement of the Action, which would include the dismissal with prejudice of all claims against all of the defendants, including Otix Global, Inc. (“Otix”) and its Board of Directors.  The proposed settlement is conditional upon, among other things, the execution of an appropriate stipulation of settlement, consummation of the acquisition of Otix by William Demant Holding A/S and OI Merger Sub, Inc. (collectively “WDH”) (the “Acquisition”), and final approval of the proposed settlement by the Court. 
 
On October 22, 2010, Otix filed a definitive proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission describing the Agreement and soliciting stockholder approval of the Agreement and the merger contemplated thereby.  The Proxy Statement was mailed to Otix stockholders on or about October 25, 2010.  As part of the proposed settlement, Otix hereby makes additional disclosures to its stockholders by filing the Fairness Opinion Analysis, dated as of October 6, 2010, prepared by Valuation Research Corporation, Otix’s financial advisor, and presented to Otix’s Board of Directors.
 
A copy of the Fairness Opinion Analysis is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and incorporated herein by reference.
