On October 23, 2006, MetaSolv, Inc. announced that had entered into an agreement and plan of merger with Oracle Systems Corporation and Marine Acquisition Corporation pursuant to which Oracle will acquire MetaSolv through a cash merger for $4.10 per share.
MetaSolv filed with the SEC a definitive proxy statement to be used by MetaSolv to solicit the approval of its stockholders for the proposed merger on November 21, 2006. MetaSolv may also file other documents concerning the proposed merger. You are urged to read the proxy statement regarding the proposed merger and any other relevant documents filed with the SEC, as well as any amendments or supplements to those documents, because they will contain important information. You can obtain a free copy of the proxy statement, as well as other filings containing information about MetaSolv at the SEC’s Internet Site (http://www.sec.gov). Copies of the proxy statement can also be obtained without charge, by directing a request to: MetaSolv Investor Relations, 5556 Tennyson Parkway, Plano, Texas 75024, or by telephone (972) 403-3000.
MetaSolv and its directors and executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from the stockholders of MetaSolv in connection with the proposed merger. Additional information regarding the interests of those participants may be obtained by reading MetaSolv’s definitive proxy statement dated April 10, 2006 in connection with MetaSolv’s annual meeting of stockholders held on May 9, 2006 and by reading the proxy statement regarding the proposed merger that was filed November 21, 2006, as well as any amendments or supplements to the proxy statement.
This document contains forward-looking statements that are made pursuant to the Safe Harbor Provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, particularly, those statements regarding the effects of the proposed merger, and those preceded by, followed by or that otherwise include the words “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “estimates,” or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements relating to expectations about future results or events are based upon information available to MetaSolv as of today’s date, and MetaSolv does not assume any obligations to update any of these statements. The forward-looking statements are not guarantees of the future performance of MetaSolv or the combined company and actual results may vary materially from the results and expectations discussed. For instance, while MetaSolv and Oracle have signed an agreement to merge, there is no assurance that they will complete the proposed merger. In the event the companies do not receive necessary approval of MetaSolv’s stockholders or government approvals or fail to satisfy conditions to closing, the merger agreement will terminate. Additional risks and uncertainties related to the proposed merger include, but are not limited to, conditions in the financial markets relevant to the proposed merger, the successful integration of MetaSolv into Oracle’s business, and each company’s ability to compete in the highly competitive software industry. The revenues, earnings and business prospects of MetaSolv and the combined company and their ability to achieve planned business objectives will be subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties include, among other things, the variance of quarterly operating results; MetaSolv’s ability to successfully manage and integrate acquisitions; MetaSolv’s reliance on sales of its software; the need to expand sales and distribution capabilities; the need to expand to new customer markets; MetaSolv’s continued use of strategic relationships; its ability to manage growth; MetaSolv’s international operations; its ability to meet customer expectations; the quality of MetaSolv’s software delivered; competition; consolidation within the telecommunications industry; limitations on the ability of customers to obtain adequate financing; and MetaSolv’s ability to reduce its cost structure. These and other risks are identified from time to time in MetaSolv’s SEC reports and public announcements.
Below is disclosure that appeared in a Form 8-K filed by MetaSolv with the SEC on December 13, 2006:
“On November 21, 2006, Discovery Partners filed a class action petition in the district court of Collin County, Texas against MetaSolv, Inc. (“MetaSolv”), Oracle Systems Corporation, Marine Acquisition Corporation and all of the directors of MetaSolv. In the petition, Discovery Partners alleged, among other things, that the MetaSolv directors breached their fiduciary duties to MetaSolv’s stockholders in approving the Agreement and Plan of Merger by and among MetaSolv, Oracle Systems Corporation and Marine Acquisition Corporation dated October 23, 2006 (the “Merger Agreement”), and that the proxy statement distributed to MetaSolv stockholders in connection with the special meeting of stockholders called for the purpose of considering and voting upon the Merger Agreement contains insufficient or misleading information. The petition sought an injunction to prevent the special meeting and monetary damages. MetaSolv and Discovery Partners have reached a settlement that results in the dismissal of this lawsuit. The settlement will have no material effect on MetaSolv.”
