Important Additional Information and Where to Find It
In
connection with the proposed acquisition of Jive by Parent, Acquisition Sub will commence a tender offer for all of the outstanding shares of Jive. Such tender offer has not yet commenced. This communication is for informational purposes only and is
neither an offer to purchase nor a solicitation of an offer to sell shares of Jive, nor is it a substitute for the tender offer materials that Parent, Acquisition Sub and ESW Capital, LLC (Guarantor) will file with the SEC upon
commencement of the tender offer. At the time that the tender offer is commenced, Parent, Acquisition Sub and Guarantor will file tender offer materials on Schedule TO with the SEC, and Jive will file a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on
Schedule
14D-9
with the SEC with respect to the offer. THE TENDER OFFER MATERIALS (INCLUDING AN OFFER TO PURCHASE, A RELATED LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND CERTAIN OTHER TENDER OFFER DOCUMENTS) AND THE
SOLICITATION/RECOMMENDATION STATEMENT WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION THAT SHOULD BE READ CAREFULLY AND CONSIDERED BY JIVES STOCKHOLDERS BEFORE ANY DECISION IS MADE WITH RESPECT TO THE TENDER OFFER. Both the tender offer statement and the
solicitation/recommendation statement will be made available to Jives stockholders free of charge. A free copy of the tender offer statement and the solicitation/recommendation statement will also be made available to all stockholders of Jive
by contacting Jive at lisa.jurinka@jivesoftware.com or jason.khoury@jivesoftware.com by phone at (415)
580-4738
or (650)
847-8308,
or by visiting Jives website
(www.jivesoftware.com). In addition, the tender offer statement and the solicitation/recommendation statement (and all other documents filed with the SEC) will be available at no charge on the SECs website (
www.sec.gov
) upon filing with
the SEC. JIVES STOCKHOLDERS ARE ADVISED TO READ THE TENDER OFFER STATEMENT AND THE SOLICITATION/RECOMMENDATION STATEMENT, AS EACH MAY BE AMENDED OR SUPPLEMENTED FROM TIME TO TIME, AND ANY OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS FILED WITH THE SEC WHEN THEY
BECOME AVAILABLE BEFORE THEY MAKE ANY DECISION WITH RESPECT TO THE TENDER OFFER BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION AND THE PARTIES TO THE TRANSACTION.
Forward Looking Statements
This document contains certain statements that constitute forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to,
statements regarding the satisfaction of conditions to the completion of the proposed transaction and the expected completion of the proposed transaction, as well as other statements that are not historical fact. These forward-looking statements are
based on currently available information, as well as Jives views and assumptions regarding future events as of the time such statements are being made. Such forward looking statements are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties.
Accordingly, actual results may differ materially and adversely from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the potential failure to satisfy conditions to the
completion of the proposed transaction due to the failure to receive a sufficient number of tendered shares in the tender offer, as well as those described in cautionary statements contained elsewhere herein and in Jives periodic reports filed
with the SEC including the statements set forth under Risk Factors set forth in Jives most recent annual report on Form
10-K,
the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (including the offer to
purchase, the letter of transmittal and other documents relating to the tender offer) to be filed by Parent, Acquisition Sub and Guarantor, and the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule
14D-9
to be
filed by Jive. As a result of these and other risks, the proposed transaction may not be completed on the timeframe expected or at all. These forward-looking statements reflect Jives expectations as of the date of this report. While Jive may
elect to update any such forward-looking statements at some point in the future, Jive specifically disclaims any obligation to do so, even if our expectations change, except as required by law.
