The principal employment of Mr. Slusky is as the sole Director and President of Vector Capital Corporation, a Delaware corporation, which is principally engaged in the business of managing a portfolio of funds, including Vector. |

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
The net investment cost (including commissions, if any) of the Shares beneficially owned by Vector is $45,383,933.37. The source of funds for this consideration was the available capital of Vector, which may, at any given time, include margin loans made by brokerage firms, borrowings under a working capital line of credit with Silicon Valley Bank or capital contributions from investors in the Vector funds, each in the ordinary course of business.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
From March 28, 2013 to April 24, 2013, the Reporting Persons acquired 1,212,200 of the Shares reported herein for investment purposes and in order to better position themselves in the event they were to elect to pursue other potential transactions involving the Company, including a possible acquisition. The Reporting Persons were not actively negotiating an offer for the purchase of the Company in the process that led to the announced acquisition of the Company by Vista Equity Partners (the “Vista Acquisition”) and are therefore not Excluded Parties (as defined in the Company’s May 19, 2013 Merger Agreement with Vista Equity Partners). After the announcement of the Vista Acquisition, the Reporting Persons acquired 1,108,757 additional Shares in an effort to build a significant position while evaluating whether to pursue a topping bid for the Company. The Reporting Persons are continuing to evaluate their options, but currently have no plans to make a topping bid. The Reporting Persons believe the Vista Acquisition provides attractive value to shareholders and in the absence of a higher proposal expect to tender the Shares. The Reporting Persons ultimately expect to support the highest bid for the Company.
The Reporting Persons reserve the right to change their plans or intentions and to take any and all actions that they may deem appropriate to maximize the value of their investment in the Company in light of their general investment policies, market conditions, subsequent developments affecting the Company and the general business and future prospects of the Company, which may include without limitation, (i) the purchase of additional Shares in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, and (ii) the sale of all or a portion of the Shares now owned or hereafter acquired by them. The Reporting Persons may contact and consult with other stockholders of the Company concerning the Company, its prospects, and any or all of the foregoing matters.
Except as set forth above, the Reporting Persons do not have any current intention, plan or proposal with respect to: (a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Company, or the disposition of securities of the Company; (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (d) any change in the present board of directors or management of the Company, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board; (e) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Company; (f) any other material change in the Company’s business or corporate structure; (g) changes in the Company’s charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Company by any person; (h) causing a class of securities of the Company to be delisted from a national securities exchange, if any, or cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (i) a class of equity securities of the Company becoming eligible for termination of a registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act; or (j) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.
