Dear [Mr./Ms.} lastname:

Over the last several months, we have spoken with a majority of PeopleSoft customers in order to more fully explain Oracle’s commitment to customers. This included the first in our series of Town Hall meetings, at which customers submit questions that are answered by the executive team at Oracle. In all these communications, we reaffirmed that one of our primary objectives will be to support, maintain and further enhance the PeopleSoft product line for at least the next ten years.

In the interest of continuing our dialog, I invite you to our second Town Hall meeting to be held on Wednesday, September 3rd at 2:00 p.m. PDT. Oracle Executive Vice President Michael Rocha, who is responsible for Oracle’s global support services and platform technologies, will join me to answer your questions. Mr. Rocha will elaborate on the planned enhancements to PeopleSoft customer support and discuss the mechanics of a smooth support transition.

I hope you can join us on September 3rd.

Sincerely,

/s/    Charles Phillips

Michael Rocha, Executive Vice President of Global Support Services

Wednesday, September 3rd at 2:00PM PDT

I have worked with Rdb for over 16 years. Oracle Corporation has maintained the outstanding level of customer support for Rdb that existed before its acquisition, and has continued to develop new features and performance enhancements.	Nine years ago Rdb was bought by Oracle and we were concerned about continued support for Rdb. We need not have worried; the support has been very good and very professional. Product support and enhancements have always met our needs and expectations.
Ken McGinnis, Database Administrator III Intracorp	Agustín Ramos, Systems Technology Manager Madrid Stock Exchange

Nearly nine years ago, Oracle acquired the Rdb database from Digital Equipment Corporation. Today

we are still providing world-class support to thousands of Rdb customers, such as Intracorp and Madrid

Stock Exchange, who are running mission critical applications.

Attend the next Town Hall meeting and hear about how we continue to improve support and product

development for Rdb customers – and what Oracle will do for PeopleSoft customers.
