Tulip Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”), a subsidiary of OC Acquisition LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Parent”), which is a subsidiary of Oracle Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Oracle”), is offering to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”), of Textura Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), at a purchase price of $26.00 per Share (the “Offer Price”), net to the seller in cash, without interest thereon and subject to any required tax withholding, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Offer to Purchase and in the related Letter of Transmittal (which, together with this Offer to Purchase, as they may be amended or supplemented from time to time, collectively constitute the “Offer”).

The Offer is being made pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 28, 2016 (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Parent, Purchaser, and (solely with respect to performance of its obligations set forth in certain specified sections thereof) Oracle, pursuant to which, after consummation of the Offer and the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, Purchaser will merge with and into the Company upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”) and becoming an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Oracle (the “Merger”). In the Merger, each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (other than (i) Shares held by the Company as treasury stock, owned by Oracle, Parent, Purchaser or any subsidiary of the Company, or (ii) Shares held by stockholders who properly exercise appraisal rights under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”)) will be converted into the right to receive the Offer Price, net to the holder in cash, without interest thereon and subject to any required tax withholding. Under no circumstances will interest be paid on the purchase price for the Shares, regardless of any extension of the Offer or any delay in making payment for Shares.

The obligation of Purchaser to accept for payment and pay for Shares validly tendered (and not withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer is subject to the satisfaction of various conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, including, among other conditions: (i) the Minimum Condition (as defined below in the “Summary Term Sheet”) and (ii) the Antitrust Condition (as defined below in Section 15 – “Conditions of the Offer”), which includes the expiration or termination of the waiting period applicable to Purchaser’s purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offer under the Xxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended. The Offer is also subject to other conditions set forth in this Offer to Purchase. See Section 15 – “Conditions of the Offer.”

The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Company Board”) (upon the unanimous recommendation of the Special Committee of the Company Board) has unanimously: (i) determined that the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Offer and the Merger, are fair to and in the best interests of the Company’s stockholders; (ii) approved and adopted the Merger

Agreement, declared the advisability of the Merger Agreement and approved the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Offer and the Merger, in accordance with the requirements of the DGCL; (iii) resolved to recommend that the stockholders of the Company accept the Offer and tender their Shares to Purchaser pursuant to the Offer; and (iv) elected that the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby be expressly governed by Section 251(h) of the DGCL.

A summary of the principal terms and conditions of the Offer appears in the “Summary Term Sheet” below. You should read this entire document carefully before deciding whether to tender your Shares in the Offer.

NEITHER THE OFFER NOR THE MERGER HAS BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (WHICH WE REFER TO AS THE “SEC”) OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION, NOR HAS THE SEC OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION PASSED UPON THE FAIRNESS OR MERITS OF THE OFFER OR THE MERGER OR UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS OFFER TO PURCHASE OR THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL.

Who is offering to buy my securities?

Tulip Acquisition Corporation (“Purchaser”), a Delaware corporation, which was formed for the purpose of making the Offer, is offering to buy your Shares. Purchaser is a subsidiary of Parent. Parent is a subsidiary of Oracle.

Unless the context indicates otherwise, in this Offer to Purchase, we use the terms “us,” “we” and “our” to refer to Purchaser and, where appropriate, Parent or Oracle. We use the term “Purchaser” to refer to Tulip Acquisition Corporation alone, the term “Parent” to refer to OC Acquisition LLC alone, the term “Oracle” to refer to Oracle Corporation alone and the term “the Company” to refer to Textura Corporation, a Delaware corporation.

See Section 8 – “Certain Information Concerning Oracle, Parent and Purchaser.”

What is the class and amount of securities sought pursuant to the Offer?

Purchaser is offering to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Offer to Purchase. In this Offer to Purchase, we use the term “Offer” to refer to this offer and the term “Shares” to refer to the shares of the Company’s common stock that are the subject of the Offer.

See Section 1 – “Terms of the Offer.”

S-i

Why are you making the Offer?

We are making the Offer because we want to acquire control of, and ultimately the entire equity interest in, the Company. Following consummation of the Offer, we intend to complete the Merger (as defined below) as promptly as practicable. Upon completion of the Merger, the Company will become a subsidiary of Parent and a subsidiary of Oracle. In addition, we intend to cause the Company to be delisted from the New York Stock Exchange and deregistered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), after completion of the Merger.

Who can participate in the Offer?

The Offer is open to all holders and beneficial owners of Shares.

How much are you offering to pay?

Purchaser is offering to pay $26.00 per Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest thereon and subject to any required tax withholding. We refer to this amount as the “Offer Price.”

See the “Introduction” to this Offer to Purchase.

Will I have to pay any fees or commissions?

If you are the record owner of your Shares and you directly tender your Shares to us in the Offer, you will not have to pay brokerage fees or similar expenses. If you own your Shares through a broker or other nominee, and your broker or other nominee tenders your Shares on your behalf, your broker or other nominee may charge you a fee for doing so. You should consult your broker or other nominee to determine whether any charges will apply.

See the “Introduction” to this Offer to Purchase and Section 18 – “Fees and Expenses.”

Is there an agreement governing the Offer?

Yes. The Company, Parent, Purchaser and (solely with respect to performance of its obligations set forth in certain specified sections thereof) Oracle, have entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 28, 2016 (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, for the terms and conditions of the Offer and the subsequent merger of Purchaser with and into the Company, with the Company surviving such merger as a subsidiary of Oracle (such merger, the “Merger”).

See Section 11 – “The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements” and Section 15 – “Conditions of the Offer.”

What are the material United States federal income tax consequences of tendering my Shares in the Offer or having my Shares exchanged for cash pursuant to the Merger?

The receipt of cash in exchange for your Shares in the Offer or, assuming you do not tender your Shares pursuant to the Offer and the Offer is consummated, in exchange for your Shares in the Merger, will be a taxable transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In general, provided that you hold your Shares as capital assets, you will recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between (i) the Offer Price and (ii) your adjusted tax basis in the Shares sold pursuant to the Offer or exchanged for cash pursuant to the Merger. This capital gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if you have held the Shares for more than one year as of the date of your sale or exchange of the Shares pursuant to the Offer or the Merger. See Section 5 – “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Offer” for a more detailed discussion of the tax treatment of the Offer and the Merger.

S-ii

We urge you to consult with your own tax advisor as to the particular tax consequences to you of the Offer and the Merger.

Do you have the financial resources to pay for all of the Shares that Purchaser is offering to purchase pursuant to the Offer?

Yes. We estimate that we will need approximately $745 million to purchase all of the Shares pursuant to the Offer and to complete the Merger, and that Oracle, Purchaser’s ultimate parent company, will provide sufficient funds for this purpose. Oracle expects to obtain the necessary funds to pay for Shares validly tendered, and not withdrawn, pursuant to the Offer from cash on hand at or about the first time as of which Purchaser accepts any Shares for payment pursuant to the Offer (such time, the “Acceptance Time”) and to obtain the necessary funds to pay for Shares exchanged for cash in the Merger from cash on hand at or about the time of the closing of the Merger.

See Section 9 – “Source and Amount of Funds.”

Is Purchaser’s financial condition relevant to my decision to tender my Shares in the Offer?

No. We do not think Purchaser’s financial condition is relevant to your decision whether to tender Shares and accept the Offer because:

•

the Offer is being made for all issued and outstanding Shares solely for cash;

•

if we consummate the Offer, we intend to complete the Merger, in which all Shares (subject to limited exceptions for Shares subject to appraisal rights and any Shares held by us, the Company or its subsidiaries) that then remain issued and outstanding will be converted into the right to receive the Offer Price in cash;

•

Purchaser, through its ultimate parent company Oracle, will have sufficient funds available to purchase all Shares validly tendered, and not withdrawn, in the Offer and all Shares converted into the right to receive the Offer Price in cash in the Merger; and

•

the Offer and the Merger are not subject to any financing or funding condition.

See Section 9 – “Source and Amount of Funds” and Section 11 – “The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements.”

Is there a minimum number of Shares that must be tendered in order for you to purchase any securities?

Yes. The obligation of Purchaser to accept for payment and pay for Shares validly tendered (and not withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer is subject to various conditions set forth in Section 15 – “Conditions of the Offer,” including, among other conditions, the valid tender without withdrawal, of a number of Shares (excluding Shares tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures that are not yet delivered in settlement or satisfaction of such guarantee) that, together with any Shares owned by Oracle, Parent or Purchaser immediately prior to the Acceptance Time, represents no less than 66 2/3% of the sum of (A) the aggregate number of Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Acceptance Time; plus (B) an additional number of Shares equal to the aggregate number of Shares issuable upon the conversion, exchange or exercise, as applicable, of any Company Compensatory Awards (as defined below), and any other options, warrants or other rights to acquire, or securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, Shares for which, as of immediately prior to the Acceptance Time, (x) a valid election has been made or notice has been given to convert, exchange or exercise, as applicable, such Company Compensatory Awards or such other option, warrant or other right, as applicable, into Shares in accordance with the terms thereof but (y) such Shares have not yet been duly issued (the “Minimum Condition”).

S-iii

How long do I have to decide whether to tender my Shares in the Offer?

You will have until 12:00 midnight, New York City time, at the end of the Expiration Date to tender your Shares in the Offer. The term “Expiration Date” means June 9, 2016, unless the expiration of the Offer is extended to a subsequent date in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, in which event the term “Expiration Date” means such subsequent date. In addition, if, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, we decide to, or are required to, extend the Offer as described below, you will have an additional opportunity to tender your Shares.

If you cannot deliver everything required to make a valid tender by the scheduled expiration of the Offer, you may still participate in the Offer by using the guaranteed delivery procedures that are described in Section 3 – “Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares” prior to the scheduled expiration of the Offer.

See Section 1 – “Terms of the Offer” and Section 3 – “Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares.”

Can the Offer be extended and under what circumstances?

Yes. The Merger Agreement provides that: (i) if, as of the scheduled Expiration Date, any of the conditions to Purchaser’s obligation to accept for payment and pay for Shares validly tendered (and not withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer set forth in Exhibit B to the Merger Agreement (collectively, the “Offer Conditions”) is not satisfied and has not been waived, Purchaser shall extend the Offer on one or more occasions, for an additional period of up to 20 business days per extension to permit such Offer Condition to be satisfied; and (ii) Purchaser shall extend the Offer from time to time for any period required by any rule or regulation of the SEC applicable to the Offer, but, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii), in no event shall Purchaser extend the Offer beyond the End Date. The “End Date” means October 27, 2016, as it may be extended as provided in the Merger Agreement and summarized below in Section 11 – “The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements—Termination of the Merger Agreement.”

See Section 1 – “Terms of the Offer” and Section 11 – “The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements.”

Will there be a subsequent offering period?

It is not expected that there will be, and the Merger Agreement does not provide for, a “subsequent offering period” in accordance with Rule 14d-11 under the Exchange Act.

See Section 1 – “Terms of the Offer.”

How will I be notified if the Offer is extended?

If we extend the Offer, we will inform American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, which is the depositary for the Offer (the “Depositary”), of any extension, and will issue a press release announcing the extension no later than 9:00 a.m. New York City time, on the next business day after the previously scheduled Expiration Date.

See Section 1 – “Terms of the Offer.”

What are the most significant conditions to the Offer?

The obligation of Purchaser to accept for payment and pay for Shares validly tendered (and not withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer is subject to the satisfaction of a number of conditions by 12:00 midnight, New York City time, at the end of the scheduled Expiration Date of the Offer, including, among other conditions:

•

the Minimum Condition;

•

the Antitrust Condition (as defined below in Section 15 – “Conditions of the Offer”); and

S-iv

•

the accuracy of the Company’s representations and warranties set forth in the Merger Agreement, and the performance of the Company’s covenants set forth in the Merger Agreement, in each case, to specified standards of materiality.

The above Offer Conditions are further described, and other Offer Conditions are described, below in Section 15 – “Conditions of the Offer.” The Offer is not subject to any financing condition.

How do I tender my Shares?

If you hold your Shares directly as the registered owner and such Shares are represented by stock certificates, you may tender your Shares in the Offer by delivering the certificates representing your Shares, together with a completed and signed Letter of Transmittal and any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal, to the Depositary, not later than the Expiration Date. If you hold your Shares as registered owner and such Shares are represented by book-entry positions, you may follow the procedures for book-entry transfer set forth in Section 3 of this Offer to Purchase, not later than the Expiration Date. The Letter of Transmittal is enclosed with this Offer to Purchase.

If you hold your Shares in street name through a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee, you must contact the institution that holds your Shares and give instructions that your Shares be tendered. You should contact the institution that holds your Shares for more details.

If you are unable to deliver everything that is required to tender your Shares to the Depositary by the Expiration Date, you may obtain a limited amount of additional time by having a broker, a bank or another fiduciary that is an eligible institution guarantee that the missing items will be received by the Depositary using the enclosed Notice of Guaranteed Delivery. To validly tender Shares in this manner, however, the Depositary must receive the missing items within the time period specified in the notice.

See Section 3 – “Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares.”

Until what time may I withdraw previously tendered Shares?

You may withdraw your previously tendered Shares at any time until 12:00 midnight, New York City time, at the end of the Expiration Date. In addition, if we have not accepted your Shares for payment by the end of July 10, 2016, you may withdraw them at any time after that date until we accept your Shares for payment.

See Section 4 – “Withdrawal Rights.”

How do I withdraw previously tendered Shares?

To withdraw previously tendered Shares, you must deliver a written notice of withdrawal, or a facsimile of one, with the required information to the Depositary while you still have the right to withdraw Shares. If you tendered Shares by giving instructions to a broker, banker or other nominee, you must instruct the broker, banker or other nominee to arrange for the withdrawal of your Shares.

See Section 4 – “Withdrawal Rights.”

Has the Offer been approved by the Company’s Board of Directors?

Yes. The Company Board (upon the unanimous recommendation of the Special Committee of the Company Board) has unanimously: (i) determined that the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Offer and the Merger, are fair to and in the best interests of the Company’s stockholders; (ii) approved and adopted the Merger Agreement, declared the advisability of the Merger Agreement and approved the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Offer and the Merger, in accordance with the

S-v

requirements of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”); (iii) resolved to recommend that the stockholders of the Company accept the Offer and tender their Shares to Purchaser pursuant to the Offer; and (iv) elected that the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby be expressly governed by Section 251(h) of the DGCL.

A more complete description of the reasons for the Company Board’s approval of the Offer and the Merger is set forth in the Company’s Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 (the “Schedule 14D-9”) to be filed by the Company with the SEC under the Exchange Act and mailed to you and other stockholders in connection with the Offer.

If Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer are purchased by Purchaser, will the Company continue as a public company?

No. We expect to complete the Merger as promptly as practicable following the consummation of the Offer. Once the Merger takes place, the Company will be a subsidiary of Oracle. Following the Merger, we intend to cause the Company to be delisted from the New York Stock Exchange and deregistered under the Exchange Act.

See Section 13 – “Certain Effects of the Offer.”

Will a meeting of the Company’s stockholders be required to approve the Merger?

No. Section 251(h) of the DGCL provides that, unless expressly required by its certificate of incorporation, no vote of stockholders will be necessary to authorize the merger of a constituent corporation whose shares are listed on a national securities exchange or held of record by more than 2,000 holders immediately prior to the execution of the applicable agreement of merger by such constituent corporation if, subject to certain statutory provisions:

•

the agreement of merger expressly permits or requires that the merger shall be effected by Section 251(h) of the DGCL and provides that such merger be effected as soon as practicable following the consummation of the tender offer;

•

an acquiring corporation consummates a tender offer for any and all of the outstanding stock of such constituent corporation (other than any shares held by the constituent corporation, the corporation making such offer, any person that owns, directly or indirectly, all of the outstanding stock of the corporation making the offer, and any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of any of the foregoing);

•

following the consummation of the tender offer, the acquiring corporation holds at least the amount of shares of each class of stock of such constituent corporation that would otherwise be required to adopt the agreement of merger for such constituent corporation; and

•

each outstanding share of each class or series of stock of the constituent corporation that is the subject of and not irrevocably accepted for purchase in the offer is converted in such merger into the same consideration for their stock in the merger as was payable in the tender offer.

If the conditions to the Offer and the Merger are satisfied or waived (to the extent waivable), we are required to effect the Merger pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL without a meeting of the Company’s stockholders and without a vote or any further action by the stockholders.

If I do not tender my Shares but the Offer is consummated, what will happen to my Shares?

If the Offer is consummated and certain other conditions are satisfied, Purchaser is required under the Merger Agreement to effect the Merger pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL. At the effective time of the Merger, all of the then issued and outstanding Shares (other than (i) Shares held by the Company as treasury

S-vi

stock, by any subsidiary of the Company or by Oracle, Parent, Purchaser or any of their respective subsidiaries and (ii) Shares held by stockholders who properly exercise appraisal rights under the DGCL) will be converted in the Merger into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the Offer Price, without interest thereon and subject to any required tax withholding.

If the Merger is completed, the Company’s stockholders who do not tender their Shares in the Offer (other than stockholders who properly exercise appraisal rights) will receive the same amount of cash per Share that they would have received had they tendered their Shares in the Offer. Therefore, if the Offer is consummated and the Merger is completed, the only differences to you between tendering your Shares and not tendering your Shares in the Offer are that (i) you will be paid earlier if you tender your Shares in the Offer and (ii) appraisal rights will not be available to you if you tender Shares in the Offer, but will be available to you in the Merger if you do not tender Shares in the Offer. See Section 17 – “Appraisal Rights.” However, if the Offer is consummated but the Merger is not completed, the number of the Company’s stockholders and the number of Shares that are still in the hands of the public may be so small that there will no longer be an active public trading market (or, possibly, there may not be any public trading market) for the Shares. Also, in such event, it is possible that the Company will be delisted from the New York Stock Exchange, will no longer be required to make filings with the SEC under the Exchange Act, or will otherwise not be required to comply with the rules relating to publicly held companies to the same extent as it is now.

See the “Introduction” to this Offer to Purchase, Section 11 – “The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements” and Section 13 – “Certain Effects of the Offer.”

What will happen to my stock options, restricted stock units and warrants (if any) in the Offer?

The Offer is being made only for Shares, and not for outstanding stock options or restricted stock units (collectively, “Company Compensatory Awards”) or warrants issued by the Company. Holders of outstanding stock options, restricted stock units or warrants issued by the Company may participate in the Offer only if they first exercise such stock options or warrants or become vested in such restricted stock units and settle them for Shares in accordance with the terms of the applicable equity incentive plan and other applicable agreements of the Company and tender the Shares, if any, issued upon such exercise or in connection with such vesting and settlement. Any such exercise or settlement should be completed sufficiently in advance of the Expiration Date to assure the holder of such outstanding stock options, restricted stock units or warrants that the holder will have sufficient time to comply with the procedures for tendering Shares described below in Section 3 – “Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares.”

At the effective time of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, the unvested portion of each Company Compensatory Award that is outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger and that is then held by a person who is an employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, will be assumed by Oracle and converted automatically at the effective time of the Merger into an option or restricted stock unit of Oracle, as the case may be, denominated in shares of common stock of Oracle and subject to terms and conditions substantially identical to those in effect at the effective time (each such assumed unvested portion of a Company Compensatory Award, an “Assumed Company Award”). The number of shares of the common stock of Oracle that will be subject to each such Assumed Company Award upon the assumption thereof at the effective time of the Merger will be determined by multiplying the number of Shares subject to such Assumed Company Award by a fraction (the “Award Exchange Ratio”), the numerator of which is the Offer Price and the denominator of which is the average closing price of common stock of Oracle on the New York Stock Exchange over the five (5) trading days immediately preceding (but not including) the date on which the effective time of the Merger occurs (rounded down to the nearest whole share). If any such Assumed Company Award had an exercise or purchase price per Share as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, then, at the effective time of the Merger, such Assumed Company Award will have an exercise or purchase price per share of the common stock of Oracle, and such new exercise or purchase price will be determined by dividing the prior exercise or purchase price per Share of such Assumed Company Award by the Award Exchange Ratio (rounded upwards to the nearest whole cent).

S-vii

The Merger Agreement also provides that, at the effective time of the Merger, the vested portion (including any portion that pursuant to its terms becomes vested solely as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement) of each Company Compensatory Award that is outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (each such vested portion of a Company Compensatory Award, a “Cashed Out Compensatory Award”) will not be assumed by Oracle and will, immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, be cancelled and extinguished and, in exchange for the Cashed Out Compensatory Award, each former holder of any such Cashed Out Compensatory Award will have the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of Shares subject to such Cashed Out Compensatory Award immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger and (y) the Offer Price less any per share exercise or purchase price of such Cashed Out Compensatory Award immediately prior to such cancellation (such amounts payable hereunder being referred to as the “Compensatory Award Payments”). From and after the effective time of the Merger, any such Cashed Out Compensatory Award will no longer be exercisable or settleable in shares by the former holder of such Cashed Out Compensatory Award, but instead the holder will only be entitled to the payment of the Compensatory Award Payment, if any; provided that any Cashed Out Compensatory Award that has an exercise or purchase price equal to or greater than the Offer Price will be cancelled without any consideration therefor. The Compensatory Award Payments will be paid as soon as practicable following the effective time of the Merger, without interest.

The Merger Agreement also provides that the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to cause each holder of warrants to purchase Shares that are outstanding as of the date of the Merger Agreement to exercise (on a cash basis or pursuant to an amendment approved by Parent allowing for a net exercise mechanism) each warrant held by such holder promptly after the date of the Merger Agreement. In lieu of the foregoing, with the prior written consent of Parent, the Company may enter into an agreement with such holder pursuant to which each warrant held by such holder will be cancelled and terminated in connection with the Merger in exchange for the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (i) the aggregate number of Shares subject to each warrant held by such holder immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) the Offer Price less any per share exercise price or purchase price of each such warrant immediately prior to such cancellation and termination.

The Merger Agreement also provides that, at the effective time of the Merger, the unvested portion of each Company Compensatory Award that is outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger and that is held by a person who is not an employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (each such unvested portion of a Company Compensatory Award, a “Terminated Compensatory Award”) will not be assumed by Oracle and will, immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, be cancelled and extinguished for no consideration. From and after the effective time of the Merger, any such Terminated Compensatory Award will no longer be exercisable by the former holder thereof or settleable in Shares.

See Section 11 – “The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements.”

Have any stockholders already agreed to tender their Shares in the Offer or to otherwise support the Offer?

Yes. Concurrently with entering into the Merger Agreement, Parent and Purchaser entered into Tender and Support Agreements with each of the Supporting Stockholders (as defined below in Section 11 – “The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements – Tender and Support Agreements”), which provide that each Supporting Stockholder will tender into the Offer, and not withdraw, all outstanding Shares such Supporting Stockholder owns of record or beneficially (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act). The Tender and Support Agreements also provide that the Supporting Stockholders will vote their Shares against certain alternative corporate transactions. The Tender and Support Agreements terminate upon the earlier of (i) valid termination of the Merger Agreement, (ii) the effectiveness of the Merger or (iii) certain amendments to the Merger Agreement or the Offer. Excluding Shares underlying Company Compensatory Awards, as of April 28, 2016, the Supporting Stockholders collectively beneficially owned, in the aggregate, 5,750,690 Shares (or approximately 21.4% of all Shares outstanding as of April 26, 2016). Including Shares which may be issued under Company Compensatory Awards and warrants to purchase Shares which are exercisable for or may become vested and settled for Shares within 60 days of April 28, 2016, the Supporting Stockholders collectively beneficially owned, in the aggregate, 6,631,850 Shares as of April 28, 2016 (or approximately 23.9% of the total of all Shares that are outstanding and all additional Shares that are deemed outstanding for purposes of calculating the Supporting Stockholders’ percentage ownership in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i) under the Exchange Act as of April 26, 2016).

See Section 11 – “The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements – Tender and Support Agreements.”

Will I have appraisal rights in connection with the Offer?

No appraisal rights will be available to you in connection with the Offer. However, if Purchaser purchases Shares pursuant to the Offer, and the Merger is completed, holders of Shares immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger who (i) did not tender their Shares in the Offer, (ii) follow the procedures set forth in Section 262 of the DGCL and (iii) do not thereafter lose such holders’ appraisal rights (by withdrawal, failure to perfect or otherwise), will be entitled to have their Shares appraised by the Delaware Court of Chancery and to receive payment of the “fair value” of such shares, exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the Merger, together with interest, thereon. The “fair value” could be greater than, less than or the same as the Offer Price.

See Section 17 – “Appraisal Rights.”

Whom should I call if I have questions about the Offer?

You may call Innisfree M&A Incorporated, the information agent for the Offer (the “Information Agent”) toll free at (000) 000-0000. See the back cover of this Offer to Purchase for additional contact information.

The Offer is being made pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 28, 2016 (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Parent, Purchaser and (solely with respect to performance of its obligations set forth in certain specified sections thereof) Oracle, pursuant to which, after consummation of the Offer and the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, Purchaser will merge with and into the Company upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). In the Merger, each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (other than (i) Shares held by the Company as treasury stock, owned by Oracle, Parent, Purchaser or any subsidiary of the Company; or (ii) Shares held by stockholders who properly exercise appraisal rights under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”)) will be converted into the right to receive the Offer Price, net to the seller in cash, without interest thereon and subject to any required tax withholding. Under no circumstances will interest be paid on the purchase price for the Shares, regardless of any extension of the Offer or any delay in making payment for the Shares. The Merger Agreement is more fully described in Section 11 – “The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements.”

Tendering stockholders who are record owners of their Shares and who tender directly to the Depositary (as defined below in the “Summary Term Sheet”) will not be obligated to pay brokerage fees or commissions or, except as otherwise provided in Section 6 of the Letter of Transmittal, stock transfer taxes with respect to the purchase of Shares by Purchaser pursuant to the Offer. Stockholders who hold their Shares through a broker, banker or other nominee should consult such institution as to whether it charges any service fees or commissions.

A more complete description of the Company Board’s reasons for authorizing and approving the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Offer and the Merger, is set forth in the Company’s Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on the Schedule 14D-9 (the “Schedule 14D-9”). Stockholders should carefully read the information set forth in the Schedule 14D-9, including the information set forth in Item 4 under the sub-headings “Background of the Offer” and “Reasons for Recommendation of the Board.”

The obligation of Purchaser to accept for payment and pay for Shares validly tendered (and not withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer is subject to various conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, including, among others: (i) the Minimum Condition (as defined below in the “Summary Term Sheet”) and (ii) the Antitrust Condition (as

defined below in Section 15 – “Conditions of the Offer”), which includes the expiration or termination of the waiting period applicable to Purchaser’s purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offer under the Xxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended. The Offer is also subject to other conditions set forth in this Offer to Purchase. See Section 15 – “Conditions of the Offer.”

The Company has advised Parent that Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. LLC, financial advisor to the Special Committee of the Company Board, rendered its opinion to the Special Committee of the Company Board, and the Company Board has, with the permission of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. LLC, relied upon such opinion, to the effect that, as of April 27, 2016 and based upon and subject to the assumptions made, procedures followed, matters considered and qualifications and limitations upon the scope of the review undertaken by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. LLC as set forth in the written opinion, the consideration to be received by the holders of Shares (other than Shares held by (a) the Company as treasury stock, (b) Oracle, Parent or Purchaser, (c) any subsidiary of the Company, (d) Northwater Capital Management Inc. and its affiliated investment funds or (e) a holder who has properly exercised appraisal rights of such Shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL) pursuant to the Merger Agreement in the Offer and the Merger is fair, from a financial point of view, to such holders. The full text of the written opinion of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. LLC, dated as of April 27, 2016, which sets forth the assumptions made, procedures followed, matters considered and limitations on the review undertaken in connection with such opinion, is attached as Annex I to the Schedule 14D-9. Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. LLC provided its opinion for the information and assistance of the Special Committee of the Company Board and the Company Board in connection with its consideration of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. The opinion of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. LLC does not constitute a recommendation as to whether or not you should tender your Shares in connection with the Offer.

This Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal contain important information that should be read carefully in its entirety before any decision is made with respect to the Offer.

THE TENDER OFFER

1.	Terms of the Offer.

Purchaser is offering to purchase all of the issued and outstanding Shares at the Offer Price. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer (including, if the Offer is extended or amended, the terms and conditions of such extension or amendment), we will accept for payment and, as promptly as practicable after the Expiration Date, pay for all Shares (excluding Shares tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures that have not yet been delivered in settlement or satisfaction of such guarantee) validly tendered prior to 12:00 midnight, New York City time, at the end of the Expiration Date and not validly withdrawn as described in Section 4 – “Withdrawal Rights.”

The Offer is conditioned upon, among other things, the satisfaction of the Minimum Condition and the other conditions described in Section 15 – “Conditions of the Offer.”

The Merger Agreement provides that (i) if, as of the scheduled Expiration Date, any of the conditions to Purchaser’s obligation to accept for payment and pay for Shares validly tendered (and not withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer set forth in Exhibit B to the Merger Agreement (collectively, the “Offer Conditions”) is not satisfied and has not been waived, Purchaser shall extend the Offer on one or more occasions, for an additional period of up to 20 business days per extension, to permit such Offer Condition to be satisfied and (ii) Purchaser shall extend the Offer from time to time for any period required by any rule or regulation of the SEC applicable to the Offer, but, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii), in no event beyond the End Date. The “End Date” means October 27, 2016, as it may be extended as provided in the Merger Agreement and summarized below in Section 11 –“The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements—Termination of the Merger Agreement.”

The Merger Agreement provides that, without the prior written consent of the Company: (i) the Minimum Condition may not be amended or waived; and (ii) no change may be made to the Offer that: (a) changes the

form of consideration to be delivered by Purchaser pursuant to the Offer; (b) decreases the Offer Price or the number of Shares sought to be purchased by Purchaser pursuant to the Offer; (c) imposes conditions to the Offer in addition to the Offer Conditions; or (d) except as otherwise allowed by the Merger Agreement, extends the Expiration Date.

The Merger Agreement also provides that, at Parent’s election and in Parent’s sole discretion and upon written notice to the Company prior to the Acceptance Time, the definition of Minimum Condition may be modified to replace the reference to “66 2/3% of the Adjusted Outstanding Share Number” in such definition with “66 2/3% of the aggregate number of outstanding Company Common Stock immediately prior to the Acceptance Time” (such modification, the “Permitted Minimum Condition Modification”). Effecting the Permitted Minimum Condition Modification by Parent will not constitute a waiver of the Minimum Condition for purposes of the Merger Agreement.

If we extend the Offer, are delayed in our acceptance for payment of or payment for Shares or are unable to accept Shares for payment pursuant to the Offer for any reason, then, without prejudice to our rights under the Offer, the Depositary may retain tendered Shares on our behalf, and such Shares may not be withdrawn except to the extent that tendering stockholders are entitled to withdrawal rights as described in Section 4 – “Withdrawal Rights.” However, our ability to delay the payment for Shares that we have accepted for payment is limited by Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act, which requires us to pay the consideration offered or return the securities deposited by or on behalf of stockholders promptly after the termination or withdrawal of the Offer.

Subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and other applicable laws and regulations, we expressly reserve the right to waive any Offer Condition at any time and from time to time, to increase the Offer Price or to make any other changes in the terms and conditions of the Offer. Any extension, delay, termination or amendment of the Offer will be followed as promptly as practicable by a public announcement thereof, and such announcement in the case of an extension will be made no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the next business day after the previously scheduled Expiration Date. Without limiting the manner in which we may choose to make any public announcement, we intend to make announcements regarding the Offer by issuing a press release and making any appropriate filing with the SEC.

If we make a material change in the terms of the Offer or the information concerning the Offer or if we waive a material condition of the Offer, we will disseminate additional tender offer materials and extend the Offer, in each case, if and to the extent required by Rules 14d-4(d)(1), 14d-6(c) and 14e-1 under the Exchange Act. The minimum period during which the Offer must remain open following material changes in the terms of the Offer or information concerning the Offer, other than a change in price or a change in percentage of securities sought, will depend upon the facts and circumstances, including the relative materiality of the terms or information changes. In the SEC’s view, an offer should remain open for a minimum of five business days from the date the material change is first published, sent or given to holders of Shares, and with respect to a change in price or a change in the percentage of securities sought, a minimum 10 business day period generally is required to allow for adequate dissemination to holders of Shares and investor response.

If, on or before the Expiration Date, we increase the consideration being paid for Shares accepted for payment in the Offer, such increased consideration will be paid to all holders whose Shares are purchased in the Offer, whether or not such Shares were tendered before the announcement of the increase in consideration.

The obligation of Purchaser to accept for payment and pay for Shares validly tendered (and not withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer is subject to the satisfaction of the Offer Conditions. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Offer or the Merger Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser shall not be required to accept for payment or (subject to any applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, including Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act) pay for, and may delay the acceptance for payment or (subject to any such rules and regulations) the payment for, any tendered Shares, and may terminate the Offer at any scheduled Expiration Date or amend or terminate the Offer as otherwise permitted by the Merger Agreement, if any of the Offer Conditions has not been satisfied at 12:00

midnight, Eastern Time, on the scheduled Expiration Date of the Offer; provided, however, that (i) if, as of the scheduled Expiration Date, any Offer Condition is not satisfied and has not been waived, Purchaser shall extend the Offer on one or more occasions, for an additional period of up to 20 (twenty) business days per extension, to permit such Offer Condition to be satisfied, and (ii) Purchaser shall extend the Offer from time to time for any period required by any rule or regulation of the SEC applicable to the Offer, but, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii), in no event shall Purchaser extend the Offer to a date later than the End Date. Under certain circumstances described in the Merger Agreement, we may terminate the Merger Agreement.

The Company has provided us with its stockholders list and security position listings for the purpose of disseminating the Offer to holders of Shares. This Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal, as well as the Schedule 14D-9, will be mailed to record holders of Shares whose names appear on the stockholder list and will be furnished for subsequent transmittal to beneficial owners of Shares to brokers, dealers, commercial banks, trust companies and similar persons whose names, or the names of whose nominees, appear on the stockholder list or, if applicable, who are listed as participants in a clearing agency’s security position listing.

2.	Acceptance for Payment and Payment for Shares.

Subject to the terms of the Offer and the Merger Agreement and the satisfaction or waiver of the Offer Conditions set forth in Section 15 – “Conditions of the Offer,” we will accept for payment and pay for all Shares validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer promptly. Subject to compliance with Rule 14e-1(c) and Rule 14d-11(e) under the Exchange Act, as applicable, we expressly reserve the right to delay payment for Shares in order to comply in whole or in part with any applicable law or regulation. See Section 16 – “Certain Legal Matters; Regulatory Approvals.”

In all cases, we will pay for Shares accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer only after timely receipt by the Depositary of (i) the certificates evidencing such Shares (the “Share Certificates”) or confirmation of a book-entry transfer of such Shares into the Depositary’s account at The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) (such a confirmation, a “Book-Entry Confirmation”) pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 3 – “Procedures for Tendering Shares,” (ii) the Letter of Transmittal (or a manually signed facsimile thereof), properly completed and duly executed, with any required signature guarantees and (iii) any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal or, in the case of a book-entry transfer, an Agent’s Message (as defined below) in lieu of the Letter of Transmittal and such other documents. Accordingly, tendering stockholders may be paid at different times depending upon when the Share Certificates and Letter of Transmittal, or Book-Entry Confirmations and Agent’s Message, in each case, with respect to Shares are actually received by the Depositary.

The term “Agent’s Message” means a message, transmitted through electronic means by DTC to, and received by, the Depositary and forming part of a Book-Entry Confirmation, that states that DTC has received an express acknowledgment from the participant in DTC tendering the Shares that are the subject of such Book-Entry Confirmation that such participant has received and agrees to be bound by the terms of, the Letter of Transmittal, and that Purchaser may enforce such agreement against such participant. The term “Agent’s Message” also includes any hard copy printout evidencing such message generated by a computer terminal maintained at the Depositary’s office.

For purposes of the Offer, we will be deemed to have accepted for payment, and thereby purchased, Shares validly tendered and not validly withdrawn as, if and when we give oral or written notice to the Depositary of our acceptance for payment of such Shares pursuant to the Offer. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer, payment for Shares accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer will be made by deposit of the Offer Price for such Shares with the Depositary, which will act as agent for tendering stockholders for the purpose of receiving payments from us and transmitting such payments to tendering stockholders whose Shares have been accepted for payment. If we extend the Offer, are delayed in our acceptance for payment of Shares or are unable to accept Shares for payment pursuant to the Offer for any reason, then, without prejudice to our rights under the Offer, the Depositary may retain tendered Shares on our behalf, and such Shares may not be withdrawn except to

the extent that tendering stockholders are entitled to withdrawal rights as described in Section 4 – “Withdrawal Rights” and as otherwise required by Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act. Under no circumstances will we pay interest on the Offer Price for Shares, regardless of any extension of the Offer or any delay in making such payment.

If any tendered Shares are not accepted for payment pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Offer for any reason, or if Share Certificates are submitted evidencing more Shares than are tendered, Share Certificates representing unpurchased shares will be returned, without expense to the tendering stockholder (or, in the case of Shares tendered by book-entry transfer into the Depositary’s account at DTC pursuant to the procedure set forth in Section 3 – “Procedures for Tendering Shares,” such Shares will be credited to an account maintained at DTC), as promptly as practicable following the expiration or termination of the Offer.

3.	Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares.

Valid Tenders. In order for a stockholder to validly tender Shares pursuant to the Offer, either: (i) the Letter of Transmittal (or a manually signed facsimile thereof), properly completed and duly executed, together with any required signature guarantees (or, in the case of a book-entry transfer, an Agent’s Message in lieu of the Letter of Transmittal) and any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal must be received by the Depositary at one of its addresses set forth on the back cover of this Offer to Purchase and either (A) the Share Certificates evidencing tendered Shares must be received by the Depositary at such address or (B) such Shares must be tendered pursuant to the procedure for book-entry transfer described below under “Book-Entry Transfer” and a Book-Entry Confirmation must be received by the Depositary, in each case prior to the Expiration Date; or (ii) the tendering stockholder must comply with the guaranteed delivery procedures described below under “Guaranteed Delivery.”

Book-Entry Transfer. The Depositary will establish an account with respect to the Shares at DTC for purposes of the Offer within two business days after the date of this Offer to Purchase. Any financial institution that is a participant in the system of DTC may make a book-entry delivery of Shares by causing DTC to transfer such Shares into the Depositary’s account at DTC in accordance with DTC’s procedures for such transfer. However, although delivery of Shares may be effected through book-entry transfer at DTC, either the Letter of Transmittal (or a manually signed facsimile thereof), properly completed and duly executed, together with any required signature guarantees, or an Agent’s Message in lieu of the Letter of Transmittal, and any other required documents, must, in any case, be received by the Depositary at one of its addresses set forth on the back cover of this Offer to Purchase prior to the Expiration Date, or the tendering stockholder must comply with the guaranteed delivery procedures described below under “Guaranteed Delivery.” Delivery of documents to DTC does not constitute delivery to the Depositary.

Signature Guarantees. No signature guarantee is required on the Letter of Transmittal (i) if the Letter of Transmittal is signed by the registered holder(s) (which term, for purposes of this Section 3, includes any participant in DTC’s systems whose name appears on a security position listing as the owner of the Shares) of the Shares tendered therewith, unless such holder or holders have completed either the box entitled “Special Delivery Instructions” or the box entitled “Special Payment Instructions” on the Letter of Transmittal or (ii) if the Shares are tendered for the account of a financial institution (including most commercial banks, savings and loan associations and brokerage houses) that is a member in good standing of the Security Transfer Agents Medallion Program or any other “eligible guarantor institution,” as such term is defined in Rule 17Ad-15 of the Exchange Act (each an “Eligible Institution” and collectively “Eligible Institutions”). In all other cases, all signatures on a Letter of Transmittal must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution. See Instruction 1 of the Letter of Transmittal. If a Share Certificate is registered in the name of a person or persons other than the signers of the Letter of Transmittal, or if payment is to be made or delivered to, or a Share Certificate not accepted for payment or not tendered is to be issued in, the name(s) of a person or persons other than the registered holder(s), then the Share Certificate must be endorsed or accompanied by appropriate duly executed stock powers, in either case signed exactly as the name(s) of the registered holder(s) appear on the Share Certificate, with the signature(s) on such Share Certificate or stock powers guaranteed by an Eligible Institution as provided in the Letter of Transmittal. See Instructions 1 and 5 of the Letter of Transmittal.

Guaranteed Delivery. If a stockholder desires to tender Shares pursuant to the Offer and the Share Certificates evidencing such stockholder’s Shares are not immediately available or such stockholder cannot deliver the Share Certificates and all other required documents to the Depositary on or prior to the Expiration Date, or such stockholder cannot complete the procedure for delivery by book-entry transfer on a timely basis, such Shares may nevertheless be tendered, provided that all of the following conditions are satisfied:

•

such tender is made by or through an Eligible Institution;

•

a properly completed and duly executed Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, substantially in the form made available by us, is received on or prior to the Expiration Date by the Depositary as provided below; and

•

the Share Certificates (or a Book-Entry Confirmation) evidencing all tendered Shares, in proper form for transfer, in each case together with the Letter of Transmittal (or a manually signed facsimile thereof), properly completed and duly executed, with any required signature guarantees (or, in the case of a book-entry transfer, an Agent’s Message), and any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal are received by the Depositary within three New York Stock Exchange trading days after the date of execution of such Notice of Guaranteed Delivery.

The Notice of Guaranteed Delivery may be transmitted by manually signed facsimile transmission or mailed to the Depositary and must include a guarantee by an Eligible Institution in the form set forth in the form of Notice of Guaranteed Delivery made available by Purchaser.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Offer, payment for Shares accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer will in all cases only be made after timely receipt by the Depositary of (i) certificates evidencing such Shares or a Book-Entry Confirmation of a book-entry transfer of such Shares into the Depositary’s account at DTC pursuant to the procedures set forth in this Section 3, (ii) the Letter of Transmittal (or a manually signed facsimile thereof), properly completed and duly executed, with any required signature guarantees and (iii) any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal or, in the case of a book-entry transfer, an Agent’s Message in lieu of the Letter of Transmittal and such other documents. Accordingly, tendering stockholders may be paid at different times depending upon when the Share Certificates and Letter of Transmittal, or Book-Entry Confirmations and Agent’s Message, in each case, with respect to Shares are actually received by the Depositary.

THE METHOD OF DELIVERY OF THE SHARES (OR SHARE CERTIFICATES), THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND ALL OTHER REQUIRED DOCUMENTS, INCLUDING DELIVERY THROUGH DTC, IS AT THE ELECTION AND RISK OF THE TENDERING STOCKHOLDER. DELIVERY OF THE SHARES (OR SHARE CERTIFICATES), THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND ALL OTHER REQUIRED DOCUMENTS WILL BE DEEMED MADE, AND RISK OF LOSS THEREOF SHALL PASS, ONLY WHEN THEY ARE ACTUALLY RECEIVED BY THE DEPOSITARY (INCLUDING, IN THE CASE OF A BOOK-ENTRY TRANSFER OF SHARES, BY BOOK-ENTRY CONFIRMATION WITH RESPECT TO SUCH SHARES). IF SUCH DELIVERY IS BY MAIL, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE SHARES (OR SHARE CERTIFICATES), THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND ALL OTHER REQUIRED DOCUMENTS BE SENT BY PROPERLY INSURED REGISTERED MAIL WITH RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED. IN ALL CASES, SUFFICIENT TIME SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO ENSURE TIMELY DELIVERY.

The tender of Shares pursuant to any one of the procedures described above will constitute the tendering stockholder’s acceptance of the Offer, as well as the tendering stockholder’s representation and warranty that such stockholder has the full power and authority to tender and assign the Shares tendered, as specified in the Letter of Transmittal. Our acceptance for payment of Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer will constitute a binding agreement between the tendering stockholder and us upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer.

Determination of Validity. All questions as to the validity, form, eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance for payment of any tender of Shares will be determined by us, in our sole discretion, which determination shall be final and binding on all parties. We reserve the absolute right to reject any and all tenders

determined by us not to be in proper form or the acceptance for payment of which may, in our opinion, be unlawful. We also reserve the absolute right to waive any defect or irregularity in the tender of any Shares of any particular stockholder, whether or not similar defects or irregularities are waived in the case of other stockholders. No tender of Shares will be deemed to have been validly made until all defects and irregularities have been cured or waived to our satisfaction. None of Purchaser, Parent, Oracle, or any of their respective affiliates or assigns, the Depositary, the Information Agent or any other person will be under any duty to give notification of any defects or irregularities in tenders or incur any liability for failure to give any such notification. Our interpretation of the terms and conditions of the Offer (including the Letter of Transmittal and the instructions thereto) will be final and binding.

Appointment. By executing the Letter of Transmittal as set forth above, the tendering stockholder will irrevocably appoint designees of Purchaser as such stockholder’s attorneys-in-fact and proxies in the manner set forth in the Letter of Transmittal, each with full power of substitution, to the full extent of such stockholder’s rights with respect to the Shares tendered by such stockholder and accepted for payment by Purchaser and with respect to any and all other Shares or other securities or rights issued or issuable in respect of such Shares. All such powers of attorney and proxies will be considered irrevocable and coupled with an interest in the tendered Shares. Such appointment will be effective when, and only to the extent that, we accept for payment Shares tendered by such stockholder as provided herein. Upon such appointment, all prior powers of attorney, proxies and consents given by such stockholder with respect to such Shares or other securities or rights will, without further action, be revoked and no subsequent powers of attorney, proxies, consents or revocations may be given by such stockholder (and, if given, will not be deemed effective). The designees of Purchaser will thereby be empowered to exercise all voting and other rights with respect to such Shares and other securities or rights, including, without limitation, in respect of any annual, special or adjourned meeting of the Company’s stockholders, actions by written consent in lieu of any such meeting or otherwise, as they in their sole discretion deem proper. We reserve the right to require that, in order for Shares to be deemed validly tendered, immediately upon our acceptance for payment of such Shares, Purchaser must be able to exercise full voting, consent and other rights with respect to such Shares and other related securities or rights, including voting at any meeting of stockholders.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding. Payments made to stockholders of the Company in the Offer or the Merger generally will be subject to information reporting and may be subject to backup withholding (currently at a rate of 28%). To avoid backup withholding and potential penalties, any U.S. stockholder that does not otherwise establish an exemption should complete and return the IRS Form W-9 included in the Letter of Transmittal, listing such U.S. stockholder’s correct taxpayer identification number and certifying that such stockholder is a U.S. person, the taxpayer identification number provided is correct, and that such stockholder is not subject to backup withholding. Any foreign stockholder should submit an IRS Form W-8BEN (or other applicable IRS Form W-8) attesting to such stockholder’s exempt foreign status in order to qualify for an exemption from information reporting and backup withholding. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a refund from the IRS or a credit against a stockholder’s U.S. federal income tax liability provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

4.	Withdrawal Rights.

Except as otherwise provided in this Section 4, tenders of Shares made pursuant to the Offer are irrevocable.

Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer may be withdrawn at any time prior to the Expiration Date. Thereafter, tenders are irrevocable, except that Shares tendered may also be withdrawn after July 10, 2016 if Purchaser has not accepted them for payment by the end of July 10, 2016.

For a withdrawal of Shares to be effective, the Depositary must timely receive a written or facsimile transmission notice of withdrawal at one of its addresses set forth on the back cover of this Offer to Purchase. Any notice of withdrawal must specify the name of the person who tendered the Shares to be withdrawn, the

number of Shares to be withdrawn and the names in which the Share Certificates are registered, if different from that of the person who tendered such Shares. The signature(s) on the notice of withdrawal must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution, unless such Shares have been tendered for the account of an Eligible Institution. If Shares have been tendered pursuant to the procedures for book-entry transfer as set forth in Section 3 – “Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares,” any notice of withdrawal must specify the name and number of the account at DTC to be credited with the withdrawn Shares. If Share Certificates representing the Shares to be withdrawn have been delivered or otherwise identified to the Depositary, then, prior to the physical release of such Share Certificates, the name of the registered owners and the serial numbers shown on such Share Certificates must also be furnished to the Depositary.

Withdrawals of tenders of Shares may not be rescinded and any Shares properly withdrawn will be deemed not validly tendered for purposes of the Offer. Withdrawn Shares may, however, be retendered by following one of the procedures for tendering Shares described in Section 3 – “Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares” at any time prior to the Expiration Date.

Purchaser will determine, in its sole discretion, all questions as to the form and validity (including time of receipt) of any notice of withdrawal, and such determination will be final and binding. No withdrawal of Shares shall be deemed to have been properly made until all defects and irregularities have been cured or waived. None of Purchaser, Parent, Oracle or any of their respective affiliates or assigns, the Depositary, the Information Agent or any other person will be under any duty to give notification of any defects or irregularities in any notice of withdrawal or incur any liability for failure to give such notification.

5.	Certain United States Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Offer.

The following is a summary of the material United States federal income tax consequences of the Offer and the Merger to stockholders of the Company whose Shares are tendered and accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer or whose Shares are converted into the right to receive cash in the Merger. The summary is for general information only and does not purport to consider all aspects of United States federal income taxation that might be relevant to stockholders of the Company. The summary is based on current provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), existing, proposed and temporary regulations thereunder and administrative and judicial interpretations thereof in effect as of the date of this Offer, all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. We have not sought, and do not intend to seek, any ruling from the IRS or any opinion of counsel with respect to the statements made and the conclusions reached in the following summary, and no assurance can be given that the IRS will agree with the views expressed herein, or that a court will not sustain any challenge by the IRS in the event of litigation.

The summary applies only to stockholders of the Company in whose hands Shares are capital assets within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code. This summary does not address foreign, state or local tax consequences of the Offer or the Merger, nor does it purport to address the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the transactions to holders of the Company Compensatory Awards, or to special classes of taxpayers (e.g., foreign taxpayers, small business investment companies, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, controlled foreign corporations, passive foreign investment companies, cooperatives, banks and certain other financial institutions, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, retirement plans, stockholders that are, or hold Shares through, partnerships or other pass-through entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes, United States persons whose functional currency is not the United States dollar, dealers in securities or foreign currency, traders that mark-to-market their securities, expatriates and former long-term residents of the United States, persons subject to the alternative minimum tax, stockholders holding Shares that are part of a straddle, hedging, constructive sale or conversion transaction, stockholders who received Shares in compensatory transactions, pursuant to the exercise of employee stock options, stock purchase rights or stock appreciation rights, as restricted stock or otherwise as compensation, and stockholders that beneficially own (actually or constructively), more than 5% of the total fair market value of the Shares). In addition, this summary does not address U.S. federal taxes other than income taxes.

For purposes of this summary, the term “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of Shares that, for United States federal income tax purposes, is: (i) an individual citizen or resident of the United States; (ii) a corporation, or an entity treated as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes, created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia; (iii) an estate, the income of which is subject to United States federal income tax regardless of its source; or (iv) a trust, if (A) a United States court is able to exercise primary supervision over the trust’s administration and one or more United States persons, within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code have authority to control all of the trust’s substantial decisions or (B) the trust has validly elected to be treated as a United States person for United States federal income tax purposes. This discussion does not address the tax consequences to stockholders who are not U.S. Holders.

If a partnership, or another entity treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes, holds Shares, the tax treatment of its partners or members generally will depend upon the status of the partner or member and the partnership’s activities. Accordingly, partnerships or other entities treated as partnerships for United States federal income tax purposes that hold Shares, and partners or members in those entities, are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the specific United States federal income tax consequences to them of the Offer and the Merger.

Because individual circumstances may differ, each stockholder should consult its, his or her own tax advisor to determine the applicability of the rules discussed below and the particular tax effects of the Offer and the Merger on a beneficial holder of Shares, including the application and effect of the alternative minimum tax and any state, local and foreign tax laws and of changes in such laws.

The exchange of Shares for cash pursuant to the Offer or the Merger will be a taxable transaction to U.S. Holders for United States federal income tax purposes. In general, a U.S. Holder who sells Shares pursuant to the Offer or receives cash in exchange for Shares pursuant to the Merger will recognize gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between (i) the amount of cash received (determined before the deduction of any withholding tax) and (ii) the U.S. Xxxxxx’s adjusted tax basis in the Shares sold pursuant to the Offer or exchanged for cash pursuant to the Merger. Gain or loss will be determined separately for each block of Shares (that is, Shares acquired at the same cost in a single transaction) tendered pursuant to the Offer or exchanged for cash pursuant to the Merger. Such gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss, provided that a U.S. Holder’s holding period for such block of Shares is more than one year at the time of consummation of the Offer or the Merger, as the case may be. Capital gains recognized by an individual upon a disposition of a Share that has been held for more than one year generally will be subject to a maximum United States federal income tax rate of 20%. In addition, certain non-corporate stockholders may be subject to an additional 3.8% tax on all or a portion of their “net investment income,” which may include all or a portion of the gain recognized in connection with the Offer or the Merger. In the case of a Share that has been held for one year or less, such capital gains generally will be subject to tax at short-term capital gains tax rates. Certain limitations apply to the use of a U.S. Holder’s capital losses.

A U.S. Holder whose Shares are purchased pursuant to the Offer or exchanged for cash pursuant to the Merger is subject to information reporting and may be subject to backup withholding unless certain information is provided to the Depositary or an exemption applies. See Section 3 – “Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares.”

Background of the Offer; Past Contacts or Negotiations with the Company.

The following is a description of contacts between representatives of Oracle, Parent or the Purchaser and representatives of the Company that resulted in the execution of the Merger Agreement and the agreements related to the Offer. For a review of the Company’s activities relating to these contacts, please refer to the Company’s Schedule 14D-9 being mailed to stockholders with this Offer to Purchase.

Background of the Offer

Members of Oracle’s senior management over time have reviewed and discussed business, operational and strategic plans to enhance and complement Oracle’s Primavera global business unit, including the potential acquisition of the Company. In early August 2015, an intermediary reached out to representatives of Oracle to gauge Oracle’s interest in a preliminary meeting with representatives of the Company to discuss a potential acquisition of the Company. Later in August 2015, representatives of Oracle indicated a willingness to have a preliminary meeting with representatives of the Company to discuss a potential acquisition. However, prior to the meeting on August 28, 2015, a representative of the Company telephoned a representative of Oracle and indicated that the Company was not prepared to meet with Oracle for that purpose at that time.

On September 11, 2015, at the Company’s request, a representative of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. LLC (“Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx”) reached out to representatives of Oracle to see if Oracle would be interested in having an introductory meeting with the Company in order to learn more about the Company. On September 29, 2015, representatives of Oracle and the Company held an introductory meeting in Deerfield, Illinois.

On December 2, 2015, a member of Oracle’s management team had telephone conversations with a representative of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx. During the conversations, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx indicated that the Company was in the process of evaluating potential strategic alternatives and would like to schedule a meeting between the Company’s management and representatives of Oracle. In anticipation of a meeting between representatives of Oracle and the Company, a representative of Oracle negotiated the terms of a confidentiality agreement with representatives of the Company. Oracle and the Company subsequently entered into the confidentiality agreement on December 21, 2015.

On December 22, 2015, representatives of Oracle and representatives of the Company held a meeting at the Company’s headquarters in Deerfield, Illinois to discuss the Company’s business and financial performance. Following this meeting, representatives of Oracle requested and received additional information about the Company and continued to conduct financial and technical due diligence on the Company. On January 19, 2016, representatives of Oracle held another meeting with representatives of the Company to conduct technical due diligence.

During the last week of January 2016 and the first two weeks of February 2016, representatives of Oracle contacted representatives of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx to discuss and better understand the proposed sale process and the Company’s business and financial performance. At the conclusion of these discussions, on February 12, 2016, representatives of Oracle stated to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx that Oracle was not prepared to submit an indication of interest to acquire the Company at such time.

A representative of Oracle and a representative of the Company kept in touch with each other over the remainder of February regarding the Company and its prospects. This periodic contact continued through early April.

On April 13, 2016, a representative of Oracle telephoned a representative of the Company to indicate Oracle’s interest in acquiring the Company and stated that Oracle intended to submit a non-binding, written proposal that day. On April 14, 2016, Oracle submitted a non-binding, written proposal to acquire all the outstanding shares of the Company for $24.00 per share in cash, together with a request to enter into exclusive negotiations.

On April 17, 2016, a representative of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx telephoned a representative of Oracle and informed Oracle that the Special Committee had determined that Oracle’s proposal to acquire the Company for $24.00 per share in cash was insufficient. The representative of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx indicated that based on discussions with the Special Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, Oracle would need to increase its proposal to $27.00 per share in cash before the Special Committee would be willing to authorize the Company entering into exclusive negotiations with Oracle. Following the telephone conversation, representatives of Oracle’s senior management discussed the Company’s response to the initial proposal and determined to increase its proposal to acquire the Company to $25.25 per share in cash. Representatives of Oracle communicated the $25.25 per share in cash offer price to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx on April 18, 2016.

Later in the morning on April 18, 2016, a representative of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx contacted Oracle and indicated that based on discussions with the Special Committee, Oracle would need to increase its proposal to $26.50 per share in cash before the Special Committee would be willing to authorize the Company to enter into exclusive negotiations with Oracle. Later that day, a representative of Oracle telephoned a representative of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx and stated that Oracle was prepared to increase its proposal to acquire the Company to $26.00 per share in cash, subject to completion of satisfactory due diligence, negotiation of a satisfactory definitive agreement, final approval of Oracle’s Board of Directors and entering into an exclusive negotiation period ending just prior to the Company’s scheduled earnings release on April 28, 2016. The Oracle representative indicated to the representative of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx that this was Oracle’s best and final offer. In the afternoon on April 18, 2016, a representative of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx telephoned a representative of Oracle and indicated that the Special Committee was prepared to enter into exclusive negotiations with Oracle for Oracle to acquire all the outstanding shares of the Company for $26.00 per share in cash. The parties also discussed the timing and process for finalizing due diligence and negotiating a definitive agreement. Later that day, Oracle and the Company executed an exclusivity agreement.

Between April 19, 2016 and April 28, 2016, representatives of Oracle and the Company, Xxxx Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxx LLP, outside counsel to Oracle (which we refer to as “Xxxx Xxxxxxx”), Xxxxx Xxxxx LLP, outside counsel to the Company (which we refer to as “Xxxxx Xxxxx”), Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxx LLP, outside counsel to the Special Committee (which we refer to as “Latham”), and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, continued to conduct business and legal due diligence on the Company and negotiated the terms of the definitive merger agreement.

On April 27, 2016, the Finance and Audit Committee of Oracle’s Board of Directors held a telephonic meeting during which Oracle’s senior management made a presentation on the proposed acquisition of the Company. The members of the Finance and Audit Committee discussed the proposed transaction with Oracle’s senior management. Following this discussion, the members of the Finance and Audit Committee approved the proposed transaction and recommended that the Board of Directors of Oracle approve the acquisition of all the outstanding shares of the Company for $26.00 per share in cash.

Later in the day on April 27, 2016, Oracle’s Board of Directors held a telephonic meeting during which Oracle’s senior management made a presentation on the proposed acquisition of the Company and members of the Board of Directors asked questions and discussed the proposed acquisition with Oracle’s senior management. Following this discussion, the Oracle Board of Directors approved the merger agreement, the consummation of the Offer and the Merger and authorized the execution of the merger agreement and the tender support agreements.

Throughout the remainder of the evening of April 27, 2016 and into the morning of April 28, 2016, representatives of each of Oracle, Xxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxx and the Company finalized the merger agreement, the tender and support agreements and the related disclosure schedules. The parties executed the merger agreement and the tender support agreements early in the morning of April 28, 2016, and the transaction was announced prior to the stock market opening on April 28, 2016.

Merger Agreement

The Merger Agreement

The following is a summary of the material provisions of the Merger Agreement. The following description of the Merger Agreement is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit (d)(1) of the Schedule TO and is incorporated herein by reference. For a complete understanding of the Merger Agreement, you are encouraged to read the full text of the Merger Agreement.

The Merger Agreement has been filed herewith as required by applicable SEC regulations and solely to inform investors of its terms. The Merger Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants, which were made only for the purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were made solely for the benefit of the parties to the Merger Agreement (and, in the case of certain covenants relating to indemnification of directors and officers, for the benefit of directors and officers of the Company designated as third-party beneficiaries), are intended not as statements of fact, but rather as a way of allocating risk to one of the parties if those statements prove to be inaccurate. In addition, such representations, warranties and covenants may have been qualified by certain disclosures not reflected in the text of the Merger Agreement and may apply standards of materiality in a way that is different from what may be viewed as material by stockholders of, or other investors in, the Company. The holders of Shares and other investors are not third-party beneficiaries under the Merger Agreement and should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or conditions of the Company, Oracle, Parent, Purchaser or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates.

The Offer

Principal Terms of the Offer

The Merger Agreement provides that, subject to the terms and conditions of the Offer and the Merger Agreement, Purchaser will accept for payment all Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer as soon as practicable after Purchaser is permitted to do so under applicable law or regulations, and will pay the Offer Price in exchange for such Shares accepted for payment. The Merger Agreement provides that the obligation of Purchaser to accept for payment, and pay for, the Shares validly tendered (and not withdrawn) is subject to the satisfaction or (if permitted) waiver of the Offer Conditions.

The Merger Agreement provides that Purchaser expressly reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to increase the Offer Price, to waive any Offer Condition or make any other changes to the terms and conditions of the Offer, except that, without the prior written consent of the Company, Purchaser may not:

•

•

changes the form of consideration to be delivered by Purchaser pursuant to the Offer,

•

decreases the Offer Price or the number of Shares sought to be purchased by Purchaser in the Offer,

Schedule 14D-9 and Board Recommendation.

The Merger

Principal Terms of the Merger

The Merger Agreement provides that the Merger and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Offer and the Merger, are to be governed by Section 251(h) of the DGCL and that the Merger will be effected without a vote of the Company’s stockholders. The Merger Agreement provides that the Merger will close as

soon as practicable (and, in any event, within two business days) after satisfaction or, to the extent permitted by the Merger Agreement, waiver of all of the conditions to the Merger (including the condition that Purchaser shall have accepted for payment and paid for Shares validly tendered (and not withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer).

The Merger Agreement provides that, as promptly as practicable after the closing of the Merger, the Company will file with the Delaware Secretary of State a certificate of merger (the “Certificate of Merger”). The Merger Agreement provides that the Merger will become effective on such date and at such time (the “Effective Time”) as the Certificate of Xxxxxx has been duly filed with the Delaware Secretary of State (or at such later time as may be agreed by the parties that is specified in the Certificate of Merger). The Merger Agreement provides that, at the Effective Time, the separate corporate existence of Purchaser will cease, and the Company will continue as the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”).

The Merger Agreement provides that, at the Effective Time, each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be automatically converted into the right to receive an amount equal to the Offer Price, in cash without interest thereon and subject to any required tax withholding (the “Merger Consideration”), payable to the holder thereof in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, unless:

•

such Share is held by the Company as treasury stock or owned by Oracle, Parent or Purchaser or any subsidiary of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time, in which case such Share will be canceled, and no payment will be made with respect thereto;

•

such Share is a Dissenting Share (as defined below in the following paragraph).

The Merger Agreement provides that Shares that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a stockholder who has properly exercised appraisal rights of such Shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL (such Section, “Section 262,” and such Shares, until such time as such stockholder fails to perfect, withdraws or otherwise loses such holder’s appraisal rights under the DGCL with respect to such Shares, “Dissenting Shares”) will not be converted into or be exchangeable for the right to receive the Merger Consideration, but instead such holder will be entitled to payment of the appraised value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 262. The Merger Agreement provides that, if any such holder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost the right to appraisal under Section 262 or if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the holder is not entitled to the relief provided by Section 262, such Shares will be treated as if they had been converted into and become exchangeable for the right to receive, as of the Effective Time, the Merger Consideration for each Share, without any interest thereon.

Treatment of Company Compensatory Awards in the Merger.

The Merger Agreement provides that, at the Effective Time by virtue of the Merger, the unvested portion of any stock option or restricted stock unit of the Company (a “Company Compensatory Award”) that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that is held by an individual, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, association, trust or other entity or organization, including a government or political subdivision or an agency or instrumentality thereof (each, a “Person”) who is an employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time will be assumed by Oracle and will be converted automatically at the Effective Time into an option or restricted stock unit, as the case may be, denominated in shares of the common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Oracle and subject to terms and conditions substantially identical to those in effect at the Effective Time (each such assumed unvested portion of a Company Compensatory Award, an “Assumed Company Award”). The Merger Agreement further provides that:

•

the number of shares of the common stock of Oracle that will be subject to each Assumed Company Award will be determined by multiplying the number of Shares subject to such Assumed Company Award by a fraction (the “Award Exchange Ratio”), the numerator of which is the Offer Price and the denominator of which is the average closing price of common stock of Oracle on the New York Stock Exchange over the five (5) trading days immediately preceding (but not including) the date on which the Effective Time occurs (rounded down to the nearest whole share); and

•

the per share exercise price or purchase price (if any) of each such Assumed Company Award will be equal to (x) the per share exercise or purchase price of each such Assumed Company Award divided by (y) the Award Exchange Ratio (rounded upwards to the nearest whole cent).

The Merger Agreement provides that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the assumption of the unvested portion of a Company Stock Option will be performed in a manner intended to comply with the requirements of Sections 409A or 424(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The Merger Agreement also provides that, at the Effective Time, the vested portion (including any portion that pursuant to its terms becomes vested solely as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement) of each Company Compensatory Award that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (each such vested portion of a Company Compensatory Award, a “Cashed Out Compensatory Award”) will not be assumed by Oracle and will, immediately prior to the Effective Time, be cancelled and extinguished and, in exchange for the Cashed Out Compensatory Award, each former holder of any such Cashed Out Compensatory Award shall have the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Cashed Out Compensatory Award immediately prior to the Effective Time and (y) the Offer Price less any per share exercise or purchase price of such Cashed Out Compensatory Award immediately prior to such cancellation (such amounts payable hereunder being referred to as the “Compensatory Award Payments”). From and after the Effective Time, any such Cashed Out Compensatory Award will no longer be exercisable or settleable in shares by the former holder of such Cashed Out Compensatory Award, but instead the holder will only be entitled to the payment of the Compensatory Award Payment, if any; provided that any Cashed Out Compensatory Award that has an exercise price or purchase price equal to or greater than the Offer Price shall be cancelled without any consideration therefor. The Compensatory Award Payments will be paid as soon as practicable following the Effective Time, without interest.

The Merger Agreement also provides that, at the Effective Time, the unvested portion of each Company Compensatory Award that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that is held by a Person who is not an employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (each such unvested portion of a Company Compensatory Award, a “Terminated Compensatory Award”) will not be assumed by Oracle and will, immediately prior to the Effective Time, be cancelled and extinguished for no consideration. From and after the Effective Time, any such Terminated Compensatory Award shall no longer be exercisable by the former holder thereof or settleable in Shares.

The Merger Agreement also provides that the Company will take such action as may be necessary under the Company’s 2014 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”), to (i) terminate all purchase periods under the ESPP as of the last day of the Company’s first payroll period ending after the Effective Time (the “Final Exercise Date”); (ii) provide that no further purchase periods shall commence under the ESPP on or following the Final Exercise Date; and (iii) terminate the ESPP as of the Final Exercise Date, subject to the closing of the Merger. Each outstanding right under the ESPP on the Final Exercise Date shall be exercised on such date for the purchase of Shares in accordance with the terms of the ESPP and any outstanding Shares obtained through the exercise of such outstanding right shall be treated in the same manner as other Shares under the Merger Agreement.

Adjustments to the Offer Price and Merger Consideration

The Merger Agreement provides that if, during the period between the date of the Merger Agreement and the Effective Time, any change in the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company occurs by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including reverse stock split) or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any stock dividend, or any similar transaction, or any record date for any such purpose is established, the Offer Price, the Merger Consideration and any other amounts payable pursuant to the Merger Agreement will be appropriately adjusted.

•

any failure by the Company to meet internal or analysts’ estimates or projections (although the cause of any such failure may be taken into consideration when determining whether a Company Material Adverse Effect has occurred).

The Merger Agreement provides that any violation of the foregoing restrictions by any Subsidiary of the Company or Representatives of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries will be deemed to be a breach by the Company of the provisions of the Merger Agreement providing for such restrictions. The Merger Agreement also provides that the Company will, and will cause its Subsidiaries and its and their respective Representatives to, cease immediately and cause to be terminated, and will not authorize or knowingly permit any of its or their Representatives to continue, any and all existing activities, discussions or negotiations, if any, with any third party conducted prior to the date of the Merger Agreement with respect to any Acquisition Proposal and use reasonable best efforts to cause any such third party (or its agents or advisors) in possession of non-public information in respect of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that was furnished by or on behalf of the Company and its Subsidiaries to return or destroy (and confirm destruction of) all such information.

The Merger Agreement provides that, notwithstanding the provisions of the Merger Agreement which are summarized in the preceding paragraph or anything else to the contrary in the Merger Agreement, at any time prior to Acceptance Time, the Company Board, directly or indirectly, through any Representative, may engage in negotiations or discussions with any third party that has made (and not withdrawn) a bona fide unsolicited Acquisition Proposal in writing after the date of the Merger Agreement that did not result from or arise out of a breach of such provisions and that the Company Board believes in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation, constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal (as defined below) and thereafter furnish to such third party non-public information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to a confidentiality agreement that contains terms no less favorable to the Company than those contained in the Company’s confidentially agreement with Oracle and contains additional provisions that expressly permit the Company to comply with the non-solicitation provision of the Merger Agreement (an “Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement”) provided, in each case, that the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be a breach of its fiduciary duties to the Company’s stockholders under applicable law or regulation.

The Merger Agreement provides that the Company will not be permitted to take any of the actions described in the provisions of the Merger Agreement which are summarized in the previous paragraph unless, at least 24 hours prior to taking such action, the Company notifies Parent in writing that it intends to take such action. The Merger Agreement further provides that the Company will also promptly (and, in any event, within 24 hours) notify Parent after it obtains knowledge of the receipt by the Company (or any of its Representatives) of any Acquisition Proposal, any inquiry, offer or proposal that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, or any request for non-public information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or for access to the business, properties, assets, books or records of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries by any third party, in each case in connection with any Acquisition Proposal or inquiry, offer or proposal that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal. The Merger Agreement provides that, in such notice, the Company will identify the third party making, and the material terms and conditions of, any such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, offer, proposal or request. The Merger Agreement provides that the Company will:

•

on a reasonable and prompt basis at a mutually agreeable time, advise Parent (or its counsel) of the progress of negotiations concerning any Acquisition Proposal, the material resolved and unresolved issues related thereto and any other material matters identified with reasonable specificity by Parent (or its counsel) and the material details (including material amendments or proposed amendments as to price and other material terms) of any such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry;

•

promptly upon receipt or delivery thereof, provide Parent (or its outside counsel) with copies of all material documents and material written or electronic communications relating to any such Acquisition Proposal (including the financing thereof), request or inquiry exchanged between the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or Representatives, on the one hand, and the Person making an Acquisition Proposal or any of its affiliates, or their respective officers, directors, employees, or Representatives, on the other hand;

•

promptly provide Parent with any non-public information concerning the business, present or future performance, financial condition or results of operations of the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries), provided to any third party that was not previously provided to Parent; and

•

As defined in the Merger Agreement, “Acquisition Proposal” means any offer, proposal, inquiry or indication of interest from any third party relating to any transaction or series of related transactions involving:

•

any acquisition or purchase by any Person, directly or indirectly, of 15% or more of any class of outstanding voting or equity securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any tender offer (including a self-tender) or exchange offer that, if consummated, would result in any Person beneficially owning 15% or more of any class of outstanding voting or equity securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries;

•

any merger, amalgamation, consolidation, share exchange, business combination, joint venture or other similar transaction involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the business of which constitutes 15% or more of the consolidated net revenues, net income or assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries;

•

any sale, lease, exchange, transfer, license (other than licenses in the ordinary course of business), acquisition or disposition of 15% or more of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries (measured by the lesser of book or fair market value thereof); or

•

any liquidation, dissolution, recapitalization, extraordinary dividend or other significant corporate reorganization of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the business of which constitutes 15% or more of the consolidated net revenues, net income or assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

As defined in the Merger Agreement, “Superior Proposal” means any binding, bona fide, unsolicited, written Acquisition Proposal which did not result from or arise out of a breach of Section 7.02 of the Merger Agreement (the provisions of which are summarized above in this subsection entitled “No Solicitation and Superior Proposal Provisions” and below under “Change in Recommendation”) made by a third party, which, if consummated, would result in such third party (or in the case of a direct merger between such third party or any Subsidiary of such third party and the Company, the stockholders of such third party) owning, directly or indirectly, all of the outstanding Shares, or all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and which Acquisition Proposal the Company Board (upon the unanimous recommendation of the Special Committee of the Company Board) determines in good faith, after considering the advice of its outside legal counsel and a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation, and after taking into account all of the terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal (including any termination or break-up fees, expense reimbursement provisions and conditions to consummation), and after taking into account all financial, legal, regulatory, and other aspects of such Acquisition Proposal (including the financing terms and the ability of such third party to finance such Acquisition Proposal):

•

is more favorable to the Company’s stockholders (other than Parent and its Affiliates) than as provided in the Merger Agreement (including any changes to the terms of the Merger Agreement proposed by Parent in response to such Superior Proposal pursuant to and in accordance with Section 7.02 of the Merger Agreement (the provisions of which are summarized above in this subsection entitled “No Solicitation and Superior Proposal Provisions” and below under “Change in Recommendation”) or otherwise);

•

is not subject to any financing condition; and

The Merger Agreement provides that, notwithstanding the provisions of the Merger Agreement summarized above in this subsection entitled “Change of Recommendation” or any other provisions of the Merger Agreement, at any time prior to the Acceptance Time, the Company Board, following receipt of and on account of a Superior Proposal, may (i) make an Adverse Recommendation Change, or (ii) terminate the Merger Agreement to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal in accordance with the applicable termination provision summarized below under “Termination of the Merger Agreement,” but only if, in either case, the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel to the Company Board, that the failure to take such action would be a breach of its fiduciary duties under applicable law. The Merger Agreement provides that the Company Board will not be permitted to make an Adverse Recommendation Change or terminate the Merger Agreement under the Fiduciary Termination Provision (as defined below) unless:

•

the Company promptly notifies Parent in writing at least three (3) business days before making an Adverse Recommendation Change or terminating the Merger Agreement (the “Notice Period”), of its intention to do so;

•

the Company attaches to such notice the most current version of the proposed agreement or a reasonably detailed summary of all material terms of any such Superior Proposal (which version or summary will be updated on a prompt basis) and the identity of the third party making the Superior Proposal;

•

during the Notice Period, the Company and its financial and legal advisors negotiate with Parent in good faith to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement so that such Acquisition Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal, if Parent, in its discretion, proposes to make such adjustments, with the Notice Period being extended each time there is any material revision to the terms of a Superior Proposal, including, any revision in price, to ensure that at least three (3) business days remain in the Notice Period subsequent to the time the Company notifies Parent of any such material revision; and

•

Parent does not make, within the Notice Period, an offer that is determined by the Company Board in good faith, after consulting with its outside counsel and financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation, to be at least as favorable to the stockholders of the Company as such Superior Proposal.

The Merger Agreement provides that, notwithstanding the other provisions of the Merger Agreement, the Company Board may, in response to a material fact, event, change, development or set of circumstances (other than an Acquisition Proposal occurring or arising after the date of the Merger Agreement) that was not known to the Company Board nor reasonably foreseeable by the Company Board as of or prior to the date of the Merger Agreement (and not relating in any way to any Acquisition Proposal) (such material fact, event, change, development or set of circumstances, an “Intervening Event”), withdraw or modify, or fail to make, in a manner adverse to Parent or Purchaser, the Board Recommendation (which will be deemed to be an Adverse Recommendation Change) if the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel to the Company Board, that, in light of such Intervening Event, the failure of the Company Board to effect such an Adverse Recommendation Change would be in breach of its fiduciary duties under applicable law; provided that no fact, event, change, development or set of circumstances will constitute an Intervening Event if such fact, event, change, development or set of circumstances resulted from or arose out of the announcement, pendency or consummation of the Offer or the Merger; and provided, further, that the Company Board will not be entitled to exercise its right to make an Adverse Recommendation Change for an Intervening Event unless the Company Board has (A) provided to Parent at least four (4) business days’ prior written notice advising Parent that the Company Board intends to take such action and specifying the facts underlying the Company Board’s determination that an Intervening Event has occurred, and the reasons for the Adverse Recommendation Change, in reasonable detail, and (B) during such four (4) business day period, if requested by Xxxxxx, engaged in good faith negotiations with Parent to amend the Merger Agreement in such a manner that obviates the need for an Adverse Recommendation Change as a result of the Intervening Event.

The Merger Agreement provides that nothing contained in Section 7.02 of the Merger Agreement (the provisions of which are summarized above under “No Solicitation and Superior Proposal Provisions” and “Change in Recommendation”) will prevent the Company Board from complying with Rule 14d-9 and Rule 14e-2(a) under the Exchange Act with regard to an Acquisition Proposal; provided that any such disclosure (other than a “stop, look and listen” communication or similar communication of the type contemplated by Section 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act) will be deemed to be an Adverse Recommendation Change unless the Company Board expressly publicly reaffirms the Board Recommendation (i) in such communication or (ii) within two (2) Business Days after requested to do so by Parent.

Access to Information

The Merger Agreement provides that from the date of the Merger Agreement until the Effective Time, the Company will give Parent and its Representatives reasonable access to the offices, properties, books, records, contracts, governmental authorizations, documents, directors, officers and employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries and furnish certain financial, tax and operating data and other information as reasonably requested subject in each case to certain limitations relating to confidentiality, attorney-client privilege, and limitations under applicable law or regulations.

In addition, the Merger Agreement provides that the Company will promptly notify Parent of any written notice or other written communication (or, to the knowledge of the Company, any other notice or communication) from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, any notice or other communication from any governmental authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, any Proceeding commenced or, to the Knowledge of the Company (as defined in the Merger Agreement), threatened against, relating to or involving or otherwise affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that would have been required to have been disclosed pursuant to the Merger Agreement or which relates to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, any written notice or other written communication (or, to the Knowledge of the Company, any other notice or communication) from any major customer or major supplier that such major customer or major supplier is terminating its relationship with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or any inaccuracy of any representation or warranty or breach of covenant or agreement in the Merger Agreement that would reasonably be expected to cause any of the Offer Conditions not to be satisfied.

Director and Officer Indemnification

The Merger Agreement provides that, subject to certain limitations on premiums, for six years after the Effective Time, Parent will, or will cause the Surviving Corporation to, maintain and extend all existing officers’ and directors’ liability insurance of the Company (or equivalent prepaid “tail” or “runoff” policies obtained prior to the Effective Time) with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time covering each Person covered as of the date of the Merger Agreement by the Company’s officers’ and directors’ liability insurance policy on terms with respect to coverage and amount no less favorable than those of such policy in effect as of the date of the Merger Agreement; provided that neither Parent nor Purchaser shall be obligated to pay annual premiums in excess of 200% of the amount the Company paid for its officers’ and directors’ liability insurance policy. The Merger Agreement provides that, from the Effective Time through the sixth anniversary of the date on which the Effective Time occurred, the Surviving Corporation will, and Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation to, fulfill and honor in all respects the obligations of the Company and its Subsidiaries under: (i) each indemnification agreement disclosed pursuant to the Merger Agreement with any person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date of the Merger Agreement, or who becomes prior to the Effective Time, a director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (an “Indemnified Party”); and (ii) any indemnification provision and any exculpation provision set forth in the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company as in effect on the date of the Merger Agreement, subject in each case to any limitations imposed by the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company as in effect on the date of the Merger Agreement and as imposed from time to time under applicable law. The Merger Agreement provides that the obligations of Parent and the Surviving Corporation under the provisions of the Merger Agreement which are summarized in this paragraph will not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any Indemnified Party without the written consent of such Indemnified Party and that the Indemnified Parties will be third-party beneficiaries of those provisions and entitled to enforce the covenants contained in those provisions.

The Merger Agreement provides that, subject to applicable laws and regulations relating to the exchange of information, the Company and Parent and their respective counsel will (i) have the right to review in advance, and to the extent practicable each will consult the other on, any filing made with, or written materials to be submitted to, any governmental authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger

The Merger Agreement also provides that, between the date of the Merger Agreement and the Effective Time, each of Parent and Purchaser will not, and will ensure that none of its subsidiaries or affiliates will, take any action or propose, announce an intention or agree, in writing or otherwise, to take any action that would reasonably be expected to materially delay or prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

Public Announcements

The Merger Agreement provides that Parent and the Company will consult with each other before issuing any press release or other public statement with respect to the Merger Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby, subject to certain customary exceptions.

Section 16 Matters

The Merger Agreement provides that, prior to the Effective Time, the Company may approve, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act and in accordance with the Interpretative Letter dated January 12, 1999 issued by the SEC relating to Rule 16b-3, any dispositions of equity securities of the Company (including derivative securities with respect to equity securities of the Company) resulting from the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement by each officer or director of the Company who is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act with respect to equity securities of the Company.

Employment and Employee Benefits

The Merger Agreement provides that, from and after the date of the closing of the Merger, Parent will use reasonable efforts to cause, subject to certain limitations set forth in the Merger Agreement:

•

recognition of the service of Continuing Employees for certain purposes including eligibility to participate, levels of benefits (but not for benefit accruals under any defined benefit pension plan) and vesting under each compensation, vacation, fringe or other welfare benefit plan, program or arrangement of Parent, Oracle, the Surviving Corporation or any of their ERISA Affiliates in which any Continuing Employee is or becomes eligible to participate;

•

with respect to Parent’s “employee welfare benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA), waive all limitations as to pre-existing conditions, waiting periods, required physical examinations and exclusions with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable under such employee welfare benefit plan for eligible Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents to the same extent that the foregoing would not have applied or would have been waived under the corresponding Company Employee Plan (as defined in the Merger Agreement) in which such Continuing Employee was a participant immediately prior to such Continuing Employee’s commencement of participation in such employee welfare benefit plan of Parent; and

•

each Continuing Employee and his or her eligible dependents to be receive credit for any co-payments and deductibles paid in the calendar year that, and prior to the date that, such Continuing Employee commences participation in such employee welfare benefit plan of Parent in satisfying any applicable co-payment or deductible requirements under such employee welfare benefit plan of Parent for the applicable calendar year, to the extent that such expenses were recognized for such purposes under the comparable Company Employee Plan.

Unless otherwise directed by Xxxxxx, the Company will take all actions necessary to effect the termination of any Company sponsored 401(k) savings plan effective as of the business day immediately preceding the Acceptance Time.

“Continuing Employee” is defined in the Merger Agreement as each employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries immediately before the Effective Time who continues employment with the Surviving Corporation or any subsidiary of the Surviving Corporation following the Effective Time. The Merger Agreement provides that the provisions of the Merger Agreement which are summarized above were included in the Merger Agreement for the sole benefit of the parties to the Merger Agreement, and do not create any right in any other Person, including any Continuing Employee.

Exercise of Warrants

The Merger Agreement provides that the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to cause each holder of warrants to purchase Shares that are outstanding as of the date of the Merger Agreement to exercise (on a cash basis or pursuant to an amendment approved by Parent allowing for a net exercise mechanism) each warrant held by such holder promptly after the date of the Merger Agreement. In lieu of the foregoing, with the prior written consent of Parent, the Company may enter into an agreement with such holder pursuant to which each warrant held by such holder will be cancelled and terminated in connection with the Merger in exchange for the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (i) the aggregate number of Shares subject to each warrant held by such holder immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) the Offer Price less any per share exercise price or purchase price of each such warrant immediately prior to such cancellation and termination.

Conditions to the Merger

The Merger Agreement provides that the obligations of the parties to effect the Merger are subject to the satisfaction at or prior to the Effective Time of the following conditions: (i) no temporary restraining order, preliminary or permanent injunction or other order preventing the Offer or the consummation of the Merger shall have been issued by court or other governmental authority of competent jurisdiction and remain in effect, and there will not be any applicable law or regulation enacted or deemed applicable to the Merger that makes the Offer or the consummation of the Merger illegal; and (ii) Purchaser shall have consummated the Offer.

Termination of the Merger Agreement

Rights to Terminate the Merger Agreement

The Merger Agreement provides that the Merger Agreement may be terminated and the Offer and the Merger may be abandoned by mutual written agreement of the Company and Parent at any time prior to the Acceptance Time.

•

if the Antitrust Condition (as defined below in Section 15 – “Conditions of the Offer”) has not been satisfied by the End Date (as it may be extended), then Parent shall be entitled to extend the End Date by a three month period by written notice to the Company, but:

•

Parent may not elect such an extension if (i) there shall have been a material uncured breach of, or a material uncured inaccuracy in, a covenant or representation or warranty of Parent or Purchaser set forth in the Merger Agreement; and (ii) as a result of such material uncured breach or inaccuracy, the Company has the immediately exercisable right to validly terminate the Merger Agreement pursuant to the applicable termination provision of the Merger Agreement immediately prior to the scheduled End Date; and

In addition, the Merger Agreement provides that the Merger Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Acceptance Time by either the Company or Parent if:

•

any governmental authority of competent jurisdiction shall have issued an Order or taken any other action permanently enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting the Offer or the consummation of the Merger as contemplated by the Merger Agreement and such Order or other action shall have become final and nonappealable, or if there has been adopted any applicable law or regulation that makes the Offer or the consummation of the Merger illegal or otherwise prohibited; or

•

the Offer shall have expired (without having been extended) or shall have been terminated in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement without Purchaser having accepted Shares for payment pursuant to the Offer, subject to the following terms and conditions (the “Offer Expiration Termination Provision”):

•

a party will not be permitted to terminate the Merger Agreement pursuant to the Offer Expiration Termination Provision if: (i) the failure of Purchaser to accept Shares for payment pursuant to the Offer is attributable to the failure of an Offer Condition to be satisfied and (ii) the failure of such Offer Condition to be satisfied is attributable to a failure, on the part of the party seeking to terminate the Merger Agreement, to perform any covenant in the Merger Agreement required to be performed by such party at or prior to the Acceptance Time; and

•

the Company will not be permitted to terminate the Merger Agreement pursuant to the Offer Expiration Termination Provision unless the Company shall have paid any Termination Fee (as defined below) or Parent Expenses (as defined below) required to be paid to Parent pursuant to the applicable provision of the Merger Agreement.

The Merger Agreement provides that the Merger Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Acceptance Time by Parent:

•

if a Triggering Event (as defined below) shall have occurred; or

•

subject to the Company’s exercise of commercially reasonable efforts to cure a curable breach or inaccuracy during a 30 calendar day cure period following written notice thereof, in the event (i) of a material breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of the Company set forth in the Merger

Agreement such that the condition set forth in clause (c) of Exhibit B of the Merger Agreement (which relates to performance of the Company’s obligations under the Merger Agreement in all material respects) would not be satisfied as of the time of such breach or (ii) that any representation or warranty of the Company set forth in the Merger Agreement shall have been inaccurate when made or shall have become inaccurate, such that the condition set forth in clause (b) of Exhibit B of the Merger Agreement (which relates to the accuracy of the Company’s representations and warranties set forth in the Merger Agreement to specified standards of materiality) would not be satisfied as of the time of such breach or as of the time such representation and warranty became inaccurate.

The Merger Agreement provides that there will be a “Triggering Event” if:

an Adverse Recommendation Change shall have occurred;

•

the Company shall have entered into, or publicly announced its intention to enter into, a letter of intent, memorandum of understanding or contract (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement) relating to any Acquisition Proposal;

the Company Board or any committee thereof (i) does not reject any Acquisition Proposal within 10 business days of the making public thereof (including, for these purposes, by taking no position with respect to the acceptance by the stockholders of the Company of a tender offer or exchange offer) or (ii) shall have failed, pursuant to Rule 14e-2 under the Exchange Act or otherwise, to publicly reconfirm the Board Recommendation within 10 business days after receipt of a written request from Parent that it do so if such request is made following the making by any Person of an Acquisition Proposal.

The Merger Agreement provides that the Merger Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Acceptance Time by the Company:

•

if, prior to the Acceptance Time, the Company Board authorizes the Company, in compliance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, including the limitations on Adverse Recommendation Changes (which are summarized above under “Change in Recommendation”) to enter into a binding definitive agreement in respect of a Superior Proposal with a third party; provided that the Company shall have paid any Termination Fee (as defined below) or Parent Expenses (as defined below) required to be paid to Parent pursuant to the applicable provision of the Merger Agreement in accordance with the terms, and at the times, specified therein; and provided further that in the event of such termination, the Company substantially concurrently enters into such binding definitive agreement (the right to terminate which is summarized in this bullet point, the “Fiduciary Termination Provision”); or

•

subject to Parent’s and Purchaser’s exercise of commercially reasonable efforts to cure a curable breach or inaccuracy during a 30 day cure period following written notice thereof, in the event: (i) of a material breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of Parent or Purchaser set forth in the Merger Agreement and such failure has a material adverse effect on Purchaser’s ability to purchase and pay for the Shares validly tendered (and not withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer or to consummate the Merger or (ii) that any of the representations and warranties of Parent and Purchaser set forth in the Merger Agreement shall have been inaccurate in any material respect and such inaccuracy has a material adverse effect on Purchaser’s ability to purchase and pay for the Shares validly tendered (and not withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer or to consummate the Merger.

Effect of Termination

The Merger Agreement provides that if the Merger Agreement is terminated pursuant to the provisions of the Merger Agreement which are summarized above, the Merger Agreement will become void and of no effect

without liability of any party to the Merger Agreement (or any stockholder, director, officer, employee, agent, consultant or other Representative of such party) to any of the other parties to the Merger Agreement, except that no such termination will relieve any party thereto of any liability for damages resulting from any willful or intentional breach of the Merger Agreement. The Merger Agreement provides that certain provisions of the Merger Agreement relating to the effect of termination, payment of Termination Fees and Parent Expenses, limitations on assignment, choice of governing law, venue and jurisdiction and waiver of jury trial will survive any such termination of the Merger Agreement.

Termination Fee and Expenses

The Merger Agreement provides that all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Merger Agreement will be paid by the party incurring such cost or expense, except that:

•

Parent and the Company will share equally all filing fees payable pursuant to the HSR Act or any foreign antitrust law; and

•

in the event that the Merger Agreement is terminated due to failure of the Acceptance Time to have occurred by the End Date or pursuant to the Offer Expiration Termination Provision, the Company will as promptly as possible (but in any event within three business days) following receipt of an invoice therefor pay all of the documented reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including reasonable legal and other third party advisors fees and expenses) actually incurred by Parent and its Affiliates on or prior to the termination of the Merger Agreement in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, but in no event more than $5,000,000 (the “Parent Expenses”) as directed by Xxxxxx in writing; provided that any payment of Parent Expenses will be credited against any obligation of the Company to pay the Termination Fee.

The Merger Agreement provides that the Company will be required to pay Parent a fee in an amount equal to $24,000,000 (the “Termination Fee”) if:

•

the Merger Agreement is terminated (other than by mutual written agreement) at any time after the occurrence of a Triggering Event (in which case the Termination Fee must be paid within two business days after such termination);

•

the Merger Agreement is terminated pursuant to the Fiduciary Termination Provision (in which case the Termination Fee must be paid prior to, and as a condition of, such termination); or

For a complete understanding of the Tender and Support Agreements, you are encouraged to read the full text of the form of Tender and Support Agreement.

Concurrently with entering into the Merger Agreement, Parent and Purchaser entered into Tender and Support Agreements dated as of April 28, 2016 (the “Tender and Support Agreements”) with Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxx X.

Including Shares which may be issued under Company Compensatory Awards and warrants to purchase Shares which are exercisable for or may become vested and settled for Shares within 60 days of April 28, 2016, the Supporting Stockholders collectively beneficially owned, in the aggregate, 6,631,850 Shares as of April 28, 2016 (or approximately 23.9% of the total of all Shares that are outstanding and all additional Shares that are deemed outstanding for purposes of calculating the Supporting Stockholders’ percentage ownership in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i) under the Exchange Act as of April 26, 2016).

The Tender and Support Agreements provide that, no later than five (5) business days after the commencement of the Offer, each Supporting Stockholder will tender into the Offer, and not withdraw, all outstanding Shares such Supporting Stockholder owns of record or beneficially (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) as of the date of the Tender and Support Agreement or that such Supporting Stockholder acquires record ownership or beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of after such date during the Support Period (as defined below) (collectively, the “Subject Shares”). The Tender and Support Agreements also provide that, during the period from the date of the Tender and Support Agreements until the earlier to occur of (i) the Effective Time, (ii) the date the Merger Agreement is validly terminated or (iii) certain amendments are made to the Merger Agreement or the Offer (such period, the “Support Period”), the Supporting Stockholders will vote their Subject Shares against certain alternative corporate transactions (as more fully described in the form of Tender and Support Agreement), and that Parent is appointed as the Supporting Stockholders’ attorney-in-fact and proxy to so vote their Subject Shares. The Tender and Support Agreements terminate upon the expiration of the Support Period.

12.

Purpose of the Offer; Plans for the Company.

Purpose of the Offer.

The purpose of the Offer is for Oracle and Parent, through Purchaser, to acquire control of, and the entire equity interest in, the Company. The Offer is intended to facilitate the acquisition of all outstanding Shares. The purpose of the Merger is to acquire all outstanding Shares not tendered and purchased pursuant to the Offer. If the Offer is consummated, Purchaser intends to complete the Merger as promptly as practicable thereafter.

The Company Board (upon the unanimous recommendation of the Special Committee of the Company Board) has unanimously: (i) determined that the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Offer and the Merger, are fair to and in the best interests of the Company’s stockholders; (ii) approved and adopted the Merger Agreement, declared the advisability of the Merger Agreement and approved the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Offer and the Merger, in accordance with the requirements of the DGCL; (iii) resolved to recommend that the stockholders of the Company accept the Offer and tender their Shares to Purchaser pursuant to the Offer; and (iv) elected that the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby be expressly governed by Section 251(h) of the DGCL. If the Offer is consummated, we do not anticipate seeking the approval of the Company’s remaining stockholders before effecting the Merger. Section 251(h) of the DGCL provides that following consummation of a successful tender offer for a public corporation, and subject to certain statutory provisions, if the acquirer holds at least the amount of shares of each class of stock of the constituent corporation that would otherwise be required to approve a merger for the constituent corporation, and the other stockholders receive the same consideration for their stock in the merger as was payable in the tender offer, the acquirer can effect a merger without the action of the other stockholders of the constituent corporation. Accordingly, if we consummate the Offer, we are required to complete the Merger without a vote of the Company’s stockholders in accordance with Section 251(h) of the DGCL.

Plans for the Company.

In connection with Oracle’s consideration of the Offer, Oracle has developed a plan, on the basis of available information, for the combination of the business of the Company with that of Oracle. Oracle plans to integrate the Company’s business into Oracle. Oracle will continue to evaluate and refine the plan and may make changes to it as additional information is obtained.

Except as set forth in this Offer to Purchase and the Merger Agreement, Oracle, Parent and Purchaser have no present plans or proposals that would relate to or result in (i) any extraordinary corporate transaction involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (such as a merger, reorganization, liquidation, relocation of any operations or

sale or other transfer of a material amount of assets), (ii) any sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (iii) any material change in the Company’s capitalization or dividend policy or (iv) any other material change in the Company’s corporate structure or business.

13.

Certain Effects of the Offer

It is expected that the Merger will be consummated pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL promptly after the consummation of the Offer. Immediately following the Merger, all of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock will be held by Parent.

Market for the Shares. The purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offer will reduce the number of holders of Shares and the number of Shares that might otherwise trade publicly, which could adversely affect the liquidity and market value of the remaining Shares. We cannot predict whether the reduction in the number of Shares that might otherwise trade publicly would have an adverse or beneficial effect on the market price for, or marketability of, the Shares or whether such reduction would cause future market prices to be greater or less than the Offer Price.

Stock Quotation. Depending upon the number of Shares purchased pursuant to the Offer Shares may no longer meet the requirements for continued listing on the New York Stock Exchange if, among other things, the Company does not meet the requirements for the number of publicly held Shares, the aggregate market value of the publicly held Shares or the number of market makers for the Shares. Parent will seek to cause the listing of Shares on the New York Stock Exchange to be discontinued as soon after the consummation of the Offer as the requirements for termination of the listing are satisfied.

If the New York Stock Exchange were to delist the Shares, it is possible that the Shares would continue to trade on other securities exchanges or in the over-the-counter market and that price or other quotations of the Shares would be reported by other sources. The extent of the public market for such Shares and the availability of such quotations would depend, however, upon such factors as the number of stockholders and the aggregate market value of such securities remaining at such time, the interest in maintaining a market in the Shares on the part of securities firms, the possible termination of registration under the Exchange Act, and other factors.

Margin Regulations. The Shares are currently “margin securities” under the Regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve Board”), which has the effect, among other things, of allowing brokers to extend credit based on the use of Shares as collateral. Depending upon factors similar to those described above regarding the market for the Shares and stock quotations, it is possible that, following the Offer, the Shares would no longer constitute “margin securities” for the purposes of the margin regulations of the Federal Reserve Board and, therefore, could no longer be used as collateral for loans made by brokers.

Exchange Act Registration. The Shares are currently registered under the Exchange Act. Such registration may be terminated upon application of the Company to the SEC if the Shares are neither listed on a national securities exchange nor held by 300 or more holders of record. Termination of registration of the Shares under the Exchange Act would substantially reduce the information required to be furnished by the Company to its stockholders and to the SEC and would make certain provisions of the Exchange Act no longer applicable to the Company, such as the short-swing profit recovery provisions of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the requirement of furnishing a proxy statement pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act in connection with stockholders’ meetings and the related requirement of furnishing an annual report to stockholders and the requirements of Rule 13e-3 under the Exchange Act with respect to “going private” transactions. Furthermore, the ability of “affiliates” of the Company and persons holding “restricted securities” of the Company to dispose of such securities pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, may be impaired or eliminated. If registration of the Shares under the Exchange Act were terminated, the Shares would no longer be “margin securities” or be eligible for listing on the New York Stock Exchange. We intend to cause the delisting of the Shares from the New York Stock Exchange and the termination of the registration of the Shares under the Exchange Act as soon after completion of the Merger as the requirements for such delisting and termination of registration are satisfied.

14.

Dividends and Distributions

The Merger Agreement provides that from the date of the Merger Agreement to the Effective Time, without the prior written consent of Parent, the Company will not declare, set aside or pay any dividends on, or make any other distributions (whether in cash, stock, property or otherwise) in respect of any capital stock of the Company (except for distributions resulting from the vesting or exercise of Company compensatory awards).

The obligation of Purchaser to accept for payment and pay for Shares validly tendered (and not withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer is subject to the satisfaction of the Minimum Condition and the conditions below. Accordingly, notwithstanding any other provision of the Offer or the Merger Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser shall not be required to accept for payment or (subject to any applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, including Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act) pay for, and may delay the acceptance for payment or (subject to any such rules and regulations) the payment for, any tendered Shares, and may amend or terminate the Offer as permitted by the Merger Agreement, if the Minimum Condition or any of the following additional conditions shall not be satisfied or waived at 12:00 midnight, Eastern Time, on the scheduled Expiration Date of the Offer:

Certain Legal Matters; Regulatory Approvals.

General. Based on our examination of publicly available information filed by the Company with the SEC and other publicly available information concerning the Company, we are not aware of any governmental license or regulatory permit that appears to be material to the Company’s business that would be adversely affected by our acquisition of Shares pursuant to the Offer or, except as set forth below in this Section 16, of any approval or other action by any government or governmental administrative or regulatory authority or agency, domestic or foreign, that would be required for our purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offer. Should any such approval or other action be required or desirable, we currently contemplate that, except for takeover laws in jurisdictions other than Delaware as described below under “State Takeover Laws,” such approval or other action will be sought. However, except for observance of the waiting periods and the obtaining of the required approvals summarized under “Antitrust Compliance” below in this Section 16, we do not anticipate delaying the purchase of Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer pending the outcome of any such matter. There can be no assurance that any such approval or action, if needed, will be obtained or, if obtained, that it will be obtained without substantial conditions; and there can be no assurance that, in the event that such approvals were not obtained or such other actions were not taken, adverse consequences might not result to the Company’s business or that certain parts of the Company’s business might not have to be disposed of or held separate, any of which may give us the right to terminate the Offer at any Expiration Date without accepting for payment any Shares validly tendered (and not withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer. Our obligation under the Offer to accept for payment and pay for Shares is subject to the Offer Conditions, including, among other conditions, the Antitrust Condition. See Section 15 – “Conditions of the Offer.”

Antitrust Compliance

Under the HSR Act (including the related rules and regulations that have been promulgated thereunder by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”)), certain acquisition transactions, including Purchaser’s purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offer, may not be consummated until certain information and documentary material has been furnished for review by the FTC and the Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice (the “Antitrust Division”) and certain waiting period requirements have been satisfied. Pursuant to the HSR Act, on May 6, 2016, Oracle and the Company filed their respective Premerger Notification and Report Forms with the FTC and the Antitrust Division.

Under the HSR Act, Xxxxxxxxx’s purchase of the Shares pursuant to the Offer is subject to an initial waiting period that will expire at 11:59 pm, New York City time on May 23, 2016. However, the initial waiting period may be terminated prior to such date and time by the FTC, or Purchaser and the Company may receive a request (a “Second Request”) for additional information or documentary material from either the FTC or the Antitrust Division prior to such expiration. If the FTC or the Antitrust Division issues a Second Request, the waiting period with respect to the Offer will be extended for an additional period of 10 calendar days, which will begin on the date on which Purchaser have substantially complied with the Second Request. Complying with a Second Request can take a significant period of time. Even though the waiting period is not affected by a Second Request to the Company or by the Company supplying the requested information, the Company is obliged to respond to the request within a reasonable time. If the 10-day waiting period expires on a Saturday, Sunday or federal holiday, then such waiting period will be extended until 11:59 p.m. of the next day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or federal holiday. Only one extension of the waiting period pursuant to a Second Request is authorized by the HSR Act. After that time, the waiting period may be extended only by court order or with our consent. The FTC or the Antitrust Division may terminate the additional 10-day waiting period before its expiration.

The FTC and the Antitrust Division frequently scrutinize the legality under the U.S. antitrust laws of transactions like the Offer and the Merger. At any time, the FTC or the Antitrust Division could take any action under the antitrust laws that it considers necessary or desirable in the public interest, including seeking (i) to enjoin the purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offer, (ii) to enjoin the Merger, (iii) to require Purchaser (or, after completion of the Merger, Parent) to divest the Shares, or (iv) to require us or the Company to divest substantial assets or seek other conduct relief. Private parties, as well as state attorneys general, also may bring legal actions under the antitrust laws under certain circumstances. At any time before or after the consummation of the Merger, notwithstanding the early termination of the applicable waiting period under the HSR Act, any state or private party could seek to enjoin the consummation of the Merger or seek other structural or conduct relief or damages. See Section 15 – “Conditions of the Offer.”

Oracle and the Company also conduct business outside of the United States, and determined that an antitrust notification will be made to the Austrian Antitrust Authority. Under the Austrian Cartel Act, Purchaser’s purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offer may not be consummated until the expiration of a four-week waiting period following the complete filing of a notification concerning the Offer (and the Merger) with the Austrian Antitrust Authority, unless the waiting period is earlier terminated. This waiting period can be extended by 2 weeks in case the Purchaser requests such extension. On May 6, 2016, Oracle filed the Premerger Notification Form with the Federal Competition Authority.

Under the Austrian Cartel Act the initial waiting period (“phase 1 review”) expires at 12:00 a.m. midnight, Vienna Time on June 4, 2016 (6:00 p.m., New York City Time on June 3, 2016). The Federal Competition Authority or the Federal Cartel Attorney may also request that the transaction be reviewed by the Cartel Court (“phase 2 review”). Following such request, the Cartel Court has five months to reach a decision on the transaction. If either the phase 1 review period (whether extended or not) or the phase 2 review period (whether extended or not) expires on a Saturday, Sunday or a public holiday in Austria, then such period will be extended until 12:00 a.m. midnight of the next day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or a public holiday in Austria.

Based upon an examination of publicly available information and other information relating to the businesses in which the Company is engaged, Oracle and the Company believe that neither the purchase of Shares by Purchaser pursuant to the Offer nor the consummation of the Merger should violate applicable antitrust laws. Nevertheless, neither Oracle nor the Company can be certain that a challenge to the Offer or the Merger on antitrust grounds will not be made, or, if such challenge is made, what the result will be. See Section 15 – “Conditions of the Offer.”

State Takeover Laws

The Company is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. In general, Section 203 of the DGCL prevents a Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” (defined to include mergers and certain other actions) with an “interested stockholder” (including a person who owns or has the right to acquire 15% or more of a corporation’s outstanding voting stock) for a period of three years following the date such person became an “interested stockholder” unless, among other things, the “business combination” is approved by the board of directors of such corporation before such person became an “interested stockholder.” The Company Board approved the Merger Agreement on December 19, 2013, and, therefore, Section 203 of the DGCL is inapplicable to the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein.

A number of states have adopted laws and regulations applicable to attempts to acquire securities of corporations that are incorporated, or have substantial assets, stockholders, principal executive offices or principal places of business, or whose business operations otherwise have substantial economic effects, in such states. In 1982, in Xxxxx x. MITE Corp., the Supreme Court of the United States invalidated on constitutional grounds the Illinois Business Takeover Statute which, as a matter of state securities law, made takeovers of corporations meeting certain requirements more difficult. However, in 1987, in CTS Corp. v. Dynamics Corp. of America, the Supreme Court held that the State of Indiana could, as a matter of corporate law, constitutionally disqualify a potential acquirer from voting shares of a target corporation without the prior approval of the remaining stockholders where, among other things, the corporation is incorporated, and has a substantial number of stockholders, in the state. Subsequently, in TLX Acquisition Corp. v. Telex Corp., a U.S. federal district court in Oklahoma ruled that the Oklahoma statutes were unconstitutional as applied to corporations incorporated outside Oklahoma in that they would subject such corporations to inconsistent regulations. Similarly, in Tyson Foods, Inc. x. XxXxxxxxxx, a U.S. federal district court in Tennessee ruled that four Tennessee takeover statutes were unconstitutional as applied to corporations incorporated outside Tennessee. This decision was affirmed by the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. In December 1988, a U.S. federal district court in Florida held in Grand Metropolitan PLC x. Xxxxxxxxxxx that the provisions of the Florida Affiliated Transactions Act and the Florida Control Share Acquisition Act were unconstitutional as applied to corporations incorporated outside of Florida.

The Company, directly or through subsidiaries, conducts business in a number of states throughout the United States, some of which have enacted takeover laws. We do not know whether any of these laws will, by their terms, apply to the Offer or the Merger and have not attempted to comply with any such laws. Should any person seek to apply any state takeover law, we will take such action as then appears desirable, which may include challenging the validity or applicability of any such statute in appropriate court proceedings. In the event any person asserts that the takeover laws of any state are applicable to the Offer or the Merger, and an appropriate court does not determine that it is inapplicable or invalid as applied to the Offer or the Merger, we may be required to file certain information with, or receive approvals from, the relevant state authorities. In addition, if enjoined, we may be unable to accept for payment any Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer, or be delayed in continuing or consummating the Offer and the Merger. In such case, we may not be obligated to accept for payment any Shares tendered in the Offer. See Section 15 – “Conditions of the Offer.”

17.

Appraisal Rights.

No appraisal rights are available to the holders of Shares in connection with the Offer. If the Merger is completed, appraisal rights will be available in connection with the Merger as further described below, but, although the availability of appraisal rights depends on the Merger being completed, stockholders who wish to exercise such appraisal rights must do so no later than the time of the consummation of the Offer, even though the Merger will not have been completed as of such time. If the Merger is completed, the holders of Shares who (i) did not tender their Shares in the Offer; (ii) follow the procedures set forth in Section 262 of the DGCL; and (iii) do not thereafter lose their appraisal rights (by withdrawal, failure to perfect or otherwise), in each case in accordance with the DGCL, will be entitled to have their Shares appraised by the Delaware Court of Chancery and receive payment of the “fair value” of such Shares, exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the Merger, together with a fair rate of interest, as determined by such court.

The “fair value” of any Shares could be based upon considerations other than, or in addition to, the price paid in the Offer and the market value of such Shares. Moreover, the “fair value” so determined could be higher or lower than, or the same as, the Offer Price. Moreover, we may argue in an appraisal proceeding that, for purposes of such proceeding, the fair value of such Shares is less than the Offer Price.

Section 262 of the DGCL provides that, if a merger was approved pursuant to Section 251(h), either a constituent corporation before the effective date of the merger or the surviving corporation within ten days thereafter shall notify each of the holders of any class or series of stock of such constituent corporation who are entitled to appraisal rights of the approval of the merger and that appraisal rights are available for any or all shares of such class or series of stock of such constituent corporation, and shall include in such notice a copy of Section 262 of the DGCL. The Schedule 14D-9 constitutes the formal notice of appraisal rights in connection with the Merger under Section 262 of the DGCL.

As described more fully in the Schedule 14D-9, if a stockholder wishes to elect to exercise appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL in connection with the Merger, such stockholder must do all of the following:

•

within the later of the consummation of the Offer and twenty days after the date of mailing of the formal notice of appraisal rights, deliver to the Company a written demand for appraisal of Shares held, which demand must reasonably inform the Company of the identity of the stockholder and that the stockholder is demanding appraisal;

•

not tender such stockholder’s Shares in the Offer; and

•

continuously hold of record the Shares from the date on which the written demand for appraisal is made through the Effective Time.

Under Section 262 of the DGCL, a demand for appraisal rights must be made by the record holder of Shares. If you do not hold your Shares of record and desire to exercise appraisal rights in connection with the Merger, you will need to arrange for the record holder to make the demand for appraisal rights on your behalf in compliance with Section 262 of the DGCL.

The foregoing summary of the appraisal rights of stockholders under the DGCL does not purport to be a complete statement of the procedures to be followed by stockholders desiring to exercise any appraisal rights available thereunder and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Section 262 of the DGCL. The proper exercise of appraisal rights requires strict and timely adherence to the applicable provisions of the DGCL. A copy of Section 262 of the DGCL is included as Xxxxx XX to the Schedule 14D-9.

The information provided above is for informational purposes only with respect to your alternatives if the Merger is completed. If you tender your Shares into the Offer, you will not be entitled to exercise appraisal rights with respect to your Shares, but, instead, upon the terms and subject to the conditions to the Offer, you will receive the Offer Price for your Shares.

18.

Fees and Expenses.

Purchaser has retained Innisfree M&A Incorporated to be the Information Agent and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC to be the Depositary in connection with the Offer. The Information Agent may contact holders of Shares by mail, telephone, telecopy and personal interview and may request banks, brokers, dealers and other nominees to forward materials relating to the Offer to beneficial owners of Shares.

The Information Agent and the Depositary each will receive reasonable and customary compensation for their respective services in connection with the Offer, will be reimbursed for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and will be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses in connection therewith, including certain liabilities under federal securities laws.

None of Oracle, Parent or Purchaser will pay any fees or commissions to any broker or dealer or to any other person (other than to the Depositary and the Information Agent) in connection with the solicitation of tenders of Shares pursuant to the Offer. Brokers, dealers, commercial banks and trust companies will, upon request, be reimbursed by Purchaser for customary mailing and handling expenses incurred by them in forwarding offering materials to their customers. In those jurisdictions where applicable laws or regulations require the Offer to be made by a licensed broker or dealer, the Offer shall be deemed to be made on behalf of Purchaser by one or more registered brokers or dealers licensed under the laws of such jurisdiction to be designated by Purchaser.

19.

Miscellaneous.

The Offer is not being made to (nor will tenders be accepted from or on behalf of holders of) Shares in any jurisdiction in which the making of the Offer or the acceptance thereof would not be in compliance with the securities, blue sky or other laws of such jurisdiction. In those jurisdictions where applicable laws or regulations require the Offer to be made by a licensed broker or dealer, the Offer shall be deemed to be made on behalf of Purchaser by one or more registered brokers or dealers licensed under the laws of such jurisdiction to be designated by Purchaser.

No person has been authorized to give any information or to make any representation on behalf of Oracle, Parent or Purchaser not contained herein or in the Letter of Transmittal, and, if given or made, such information or representation must not be relied upon as having been authorized. No broker, dealer, bank, trust company, fiduciary or other person shall be deemed to be the agent of Oracle, Parent, Purchaser the Depositary or the Information Agent for the purposes of the Offer.

Oracle, Parent and Purchaser have filed with the SEC a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO pursuant to Rule 14d-3 under the Exchange Act, together with exhibits furnishing certain additional information with respect to the Offer, and may file amendments thereto. In addition, the Company has filed or will file, pursuant to Rule 14d-9 under the Exchange Act, the Schedule 14D-9 with the SEC, together with exhibits, setting forth the recommendation of the Company Board with respect to the Offer and the reasons for such recommendation and furnishing certain additional related information. A copy of such documents, and any amendments thereto, may be examined at, and copies may be obtained from, the SEC in the manner set forth in Section 7 – “Certain Information Concerning the Company” above.
