| Explanation of Responses: |
| 1. This form is a joint filing by SAP AG, SAP America, Inc, a wholly owned subsidiary of SAP AG ("SAP America"), and Sheffield Acquisition Corp., an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of SAG AG (the "Purchaser"). |
| 2. This Form 4 relates to shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), including the associated rights to purchase shares of Series A Participating Preferred Stock issued pursuant to the Preferred Stock Rights Agreement, dated as of July 31, 2002, as amended, by and between Sybase, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Sybase"), and American Stock Transfer and Trust Company (together with the Common Stock, the "Shares"), of Sybase. |
| 3. Reflects Shares of Sybase that were acquired by the Purchaser upon the exercise of the "top-up option" described in the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO, as amended or supplemented, initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 26, 2010 by SAP AG, SAP America and the Purchaser (the "Schedule TO"). |
| 4. Amount includes 7,354,298 Shares tendered through guaranteed delivery procedures. Following the exercise of the "top-up option", Sybase was merged with and into the Purchaser with Sybase surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of SAP America pursuant to a "short-form merger" under Delaware law as described in the Schedule TO (the "Merger"). At the effective time of the Merger, these Shares were cancelled and ceased to exist. |
| 5. Reflects all of the outstanding shares of Sybase not tendered in the offer, which may be deemed to have been acquired by SAP AG, SAP America and the Purchaser pursuant to the consummation of the Merger. At the effective time of the Merger, these Shares were cancelled and ceased to exist. |
| 6. Prior to the Merger, SAP America held 100 shares of the common stock, no par value per share, of the Purchaser (the "Purchaser Shares"), which represented all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Purchaser. At the effective time of the Merger, each Purchaser Share was converted into one share of common stock of Sybase, as the surviving corporation of the Merger, and as a result SAP America acquired 100% of the equity interest of Sybase. |
