I am very excited to announce that we have agreed to terms and will be acquired by E2open later this year. The combined entity will represent over $550 million in revenue and more than 3,500 employees around the world.

•

Our BluJay DNA product strategy and vision is perfectly aligned with E2open’s Digital Transformation Platform. We both see the power of harnessing data, networks and applications to power advanced supply chains.

•

The product mix is highly complementary between the companies. E2open has a strong and proven history delivering supply chain planning solutions where BluJay brings world class supply chain execution capabilities.

•

Adding E2open’s platform will allow us to bring new capabilities to our customers in key areas such as ocean shipping, global visibility, planning and global trade content. The addition of E2open's network data to our own network data will provide our customers with new and unparalleled insights into their operations.

•

We also complement each other well with regards to geographic presence. We will be able to offer more solutions and services in more countries to help you solve your most pressing challenges.

•

Our cultures and approach to success are very similar which means we will maintain the same focus on customer satisfaction you have come to expect from us.

We are excited to join forces with E2open to create a new global leader that will be uniquely suited to solving the most challenging supply chain issues we face today. Our goal has always been your success and this event demonstrates that commitment.

This announcement is not a proxy statement or solicitation of a proxy, consent or authorization with respect to any securities or in respect of the potential transaction and shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities of E2open or BluJay, nor shall there be any sale of any such securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state or jurisdiction. No offer of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

This announcement includes certain financial measures not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) including adjusted EBITDA. These non-GAAP financial measures are not a measure of financial performance in accordance with GAAP and may exclude items that are significant in understanding and assessing the Company’s financial results. Therefore, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income, cash flows from operations or other measures of profitability, liquidity, or performance under GAAP. You should be aware that the Company’s presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

The Company believes this non-GAAP measure of financial results provides useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The Company believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating

results and trends in comparing the Company’s financial measures with other similar companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. These non-GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expense and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures.

Certain statements in this announcement are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and are subject to the safe harbor created thereby. These statements relate to future events or the Company's future financial performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements of the Company or its industry to be materially different from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements. In particular, statements about the Company's expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions, future events or future performance contained in this announcement are forward-looking statements. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as "may," "will," "could," "would," "should," "expect," "plan," "anticipate," "intend," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "potential," "outlook," "guidance" or the negative of those terms or other comparable terminology.

Please see the Company's documents filed or to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the annual report filed on Form 10-K, and any amendments thereto for a discussion of certain important risk factors that relate to forward-looking statements contained in this announcement. The Company has based these forward-looking statements on its current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections. While the Company believes these expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections are reasonable, such forward-looking statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Company's control. These and other important factors may cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statements are made only as of the date hereof, and unless otherwise required by applicable securities laws, the Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
