BURLINGTON, Mass — Aspen Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: AZPN), a leading provider of software and services to the process industries, announced that an Arbitral Tribunal operating under the auspices of the International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce had issued a partial final award in the arbitration proceeding captioned Aspen Technology, Inc. v. Advanced Technology Middle East, WLL, Case No. 16732/VRO. Among its determinations, the Tribunal concluded that AspenTech acted lawfully in terminating the reseller agreement with AspenTech Middle East (now known as Advanced Technology Middle East, WLL) (“ATME”).
