Forward
Looking Statements
These documents contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including those related to Synopsys’ proposed acquisition of Magma, the expected closing date of the proposed transaction, the expected benefits of the proposed transaction and the anticipated
product plans and strategies for the combined company. These statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements, including but
not limited to: delays in or failure to satisfy required closing conditions, including the receipt of required regulatory approvals with respect to the transaction and approval of the acquisition by Magma’s stockholders; failure to consummate
or delay in consummating the transaction for other reasons; the possibility that the expected benefits of the transaction may not materialize as expected; failure to successfully integrate the products, infrastructure and employees of Magma and
Synopsys; the possibility of litigation (including relating to the acquisition itself); and the companies’ abilities to keep pace with rapidly changing technology and their products’ abilities to produce desired results. Further discussion
of these and other potential risk factors may be found in Magma’s public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (
www.sec.gov
). The forward-looking statements set forth in these documents speak only as of the date hereof and
Magma undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements due to subsequent events or circumstances.
To All Magma Employees,
I’m pleased to announce that Magma has agreed to be acquired by Synopsys. This deal is driven by the industry’s increasing need for innovative and highly automated analog and digital EDA
technologies. Magma’s product portfolio is stronger than ever and is highly complementary with Synopsys’s resources, channel and technology portfolio. The merger will allow the parties to help customers improve performance, area and power
while reducing turnaround time and the cost of complex ICs.
The acquisition is expected to close in the first half of calendar year 2012.
Until then, Magma and Synopsys will operate as separate companies. Magma will continue to innovate and to enhance all products that support the design of ICs targeted at legacy processes, current 28-nm processes, as well as 20-nm processes and
beyond. All current contracts will remain independent and valid. All terms will remain in effect for the duration of the contract. Specific plans for how Magma will integrate into Synopsys will not be determined until after the deal closes.
For more information, join us at the
Mandatory All Company Product Update Meeting today at 3:00 p.m. PT
in room 109 located on the
first floor of the San Jose office. For call-in details see the end of this email, or contact
