Cautionary Statement Regarding ForwardLooking Statements


This document contains certain forward-looking statements about Oracle and Tekelec, including statements that
involve risks and uncertainties concerning Oracle's proposed acquisition of Tekelec, anticipated customer
benefits and general business outlook. When used in this document, the words "anticipates", "can", "will",
"look forward to", "expected" and similar expressions and any other statements that are not historical facts are
intended to identify those assertions as forward-looking statements. Any such statement may be influenced by
a variety of factors, many of which are beyond the control of Oracle or Tekelec, that could cause actual
outcomes and results to be materially different from those projected, described, expressed or implied in this
document due to a number of risks and uncertainties. Potential risks and uncertainties include, among others,
the possibility that the transaction will not close or that the closing may be delayed, the anticipated synergies of
the combined companies may not be achieved after closing, the combined operations may not be successfully
integrated in a timely manner, if at all, general economic conditions in regions in which either company does
business may deteriorate and/or Oracle or Tekelec may be adversely affected by other economic, business,
and/or competitive factors. Accordingly, no assurances can be given that any of the events anticipated by the
forward-looking statements will transpire or occur, or if any of them do so, what impact they will have on the
results of operations or financial condition of Oracle or Tekelec. You are cautioned to not place undue reliance
on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this document. Neither Oracle nor Tekelec
is under any duty to update any of the information in this document.
