Additional Information

The tender offer described in this document (the “Offer”) has not yet commenced, and this document is neither an offer to purchase nor a solicitation of an offer to sell any shares of the common stock of the Company or any other securities. On the commencement date of the Offer, Oracle Corporation (“Oracle”), OC Acquisition LLC (“Parent”), and Rocket Acquisition Corporation (“Merger Subsidiary”) will file a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO, including an offer to purchase, a letter of transmittal and related documents, with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and thereafter the Company will file a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 with the SEC. Investors and security holders are urged to read both the Tender Offer Statement and the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement regarding the Offer, as they may be amended from time to time, when they become available because they will contain important information. Investors and security holders may obtain a free copy of these statements (when available) and other documents filed with the SEC at the website maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov or by directing such requests to the Information Agent for the tender offer which will be named in the Tender Offer Statement. Those materials and all other documents filed by the Company, Oracle, Parent or Merger Subsidiary with the SEC will be available both at no charge on the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov and may be obtained for free by directing requests to investors@micros.com .
