Item 8.01 Other Events.

On January 24, 2007, UGS Capital Corp., a Delaware corporation ("UGS Parent"), Siemens Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Siemens"), and Utah Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Siemens ("MergerSub"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, MergerSub will merge (the "Merger") with and into UGS Parent, resulting in MergerSub ceasing to exist and UGS Parent becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Siemens. UGS Corp. (the "Registrant") is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of UGS Parent.

The Merger Agreement provides consideration based on a total enterprise value of $3.515 billion (including debt) and includes a working capital adjustment. The closing of the Merger is conditioned, among other things, on (i) the termination or expiration of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, (ii) the approval or the termination or expiration of the applicable waiting periods, if any, with respect to other filings made by UGS Parent or the Registrant to the European Commission in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, (iii) written confirmation by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States ("CFIUS") of the successful completion of the review process under the Exon-Florio amendment to the Defense Production Act of 1950, as amended, with respect to the Merger, and (iv) no "material adverse effect" having occurred with respect to UGS Parent and its subsidiaries between the execution of the Merger Agreement and the date that is the later of March 31, 2007 or the 65th day following the later of (x) the first date on which the Registrant and Siemens jointly submit a filing to CFIUS and (y) the first date on which the Registrant and Siemens jointly submit a Form CO to the European Commission. Siemens, Merger Sub and UGS Parent have each agreed to use their reasonable best efforts to obtain such approvals.

On January 25, 2007, Siemens issued a joint press release with the Registrant announcing the Merger, a copy of which is furnished as Exhibit 99.1.
