                            <p> This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, each as amended, including all statements
                              other than statements of historical fact contained in this press release and includes, without limitation, statements regarding the transaction and anticipated closing date. These statements identify prospective
                              information and may include words such as “expects,” “intends,” “continue,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “projects,” “potential,” “should,” “may,” “will,” or the negative version of these
                              words, variations of these words and comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements are based on information available to the company as of the date of this press release and are based on management’s current
                              views and assumptions. These forward-looking statements are conditioned upon and also involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause actual results, performance or events
                              to differ materially from those anticipated by these forward-looking statements. Such risks, uncertainties, and other factors may be beyond the company’s control and may pose a risk to the company’s operating and
                              financial condition. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following risks: the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and resulting global economic uncertainty, has impacted how we, our customers, and
                              our partners are operating, and could result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows; ability to satisfy closing conditions; regulatory concerns; potential loss
                              of customers, employees and partners as a result of the announcement of the transaction; we have a limited history of operating at our current scale and under our current strategy, which makes it difficult to predict our
                              future operating results, and we may not achieve our expected operating results in the future; ; we have a history of net losses, we anticipate increasing our operating expenses in the future, and we do not expect to be
                              profitable for the near future; our quarterly results have fluctuated in the past and may fluctuate significantly in the future if we fail to manage our growth effectively, we may be unable to execute our business plan,
                              maintain high levels of service, or adequately address competitive challenges and our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected; we derive substantially all of our revenue from a
                              single software platform and if our platform fails to satisfy customer demands or to achieve widespread market acceptance it would adversely affect our business, operating results, financial condition, and growth
                              prospects; our business depends substantially on our customers renewing their subscriptions and expanding their use of our platform and if we fail to achieve renewals or expansions or our customers renew or expand their
                              subscriptions on less favorable terms or if they fail to add more users in more functional areas or upgrade to a higher level of functionality on our platform, our business and operating results will be adversely
                              affected; our growth depends in part on the success of our strategic relationships with third parties and their continued performance; if we experience a security incident affecting our platform, networks, systems or
                              data or the data of our customers, or are perceived to have experienced such a security incident, our platform may be perceived as not being secure, our reputation may be harmed, customers may reduce the use of or stop
                              using our platform, we may incur significant liabilities, and our business could be materially adversely affected; real or perceived errors, failures, bugs, service outages, or disruptions in our platform could adversely
                              affect our reputation and harm our business; we depend on the experience and expertise of our senior management team and certain key employees, especially engineering, research and development and sales personnel, and
                              our inability to retain these executive officers; the markets in which we participate are intensely competitive, and if we do not compete effectively, our business and operating results could be adversely affected; we
                              collect, process and store personal information and furthermore, our platform could be used by customers to do the same, and evolving domestic and international privacy and security laws, regulations and other
                              obligations could result in additional costs and liabilities to us or inhibit sales of our platform. Furthermore, the additional or unforeseen effects from the COVID-19 pandemic and the global economic climate may
                              amplify many of these risks. Information concerning risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause results to differ materially from the expectations described in this press release is contained in the company’s

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, each as amended, including all statements other than
statements of historical fact contained in this press release and includes,
without limitation, statements regarding the transaction and anticipated closing
date. These statements identify prospective information and may include words
such as “expects,” “intends,” “continue,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,”
“estimates,” “predicts,” “projects,” “potential,” “should,” “may,” “will,” or
the negative version of these words, variations of these words and comparable
terminology. These forward-looking statements are based on information available
to the company as of the date of this press release and are based on
management’s current views and assumptions. These forward-looking statements are
conditioned upon and also involve a number of known and unknown risks,
uncertainties, and other factors that could cause actual results, performance or
events to differ materially from those anticipated by these forward-looking
statements. Such risks, uncertainties, and other factors may be beyond the
company’s control and may pose a risk to the company’s operating and financial
condition. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the
following risks: the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and resulting global economic
uncertainty, has impacted how we, our customers, and our partners are operating,
and could result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition, operating results and cash flows; ability to satisfy closing
conditions; regulatory concerns; potential loss of customers, employees and
partners as a result of the announcement of the transaction; we have a limited
history of operating at our current scale and under our current strategy, which
makes it difficult to predict our future operating results, and we may not
achieve our expected operating results in the future; ; we have a history of net
losses, we anticipate increasing our operating expenses in the future, and we do
not expect to be profitable for the near future; our quarterly results have
fluctuated in the past and may fluctuate significantly in the future if we fail
to manage our growth effectively, we may be unable to execute our business plan,
maintain high levels of service, or adequately address competitive challenges
and our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely
affected; we derive substantially all of our revenue from a single software
platform and if our platform fails to satisfy customer demands or to achieve
widespread market acceptance it would adversely affect our business, operating
results, financial condition, and growth prospects; our business depends
substantially on our customers renewing their subscriptions and expanding their
use of our platform and if we fail to achieve renewals or expansions or our
customers renew or expand their subscriptions on less favorable terms or if they
fail to add more users in more functional areas or upgrade to a higher level of
functionality on our platform, our business and operating results will be
adversely affected; our growth depends in part on the success of our strategic
relationships with third parties and their continued performance; if we
experience a security incident affecting our platform, networks, systems or data
or the data of our customers, or are perceived to have experienced such a
security incident, our platform may be perceived as not being secure, our
reputation may be harmed, customers may reduce the use of or stop using our
platform, we may incur significant liabilities, and our business could be
materially adversely affected; real or perceived errors, failures, bugs, service
outages, or disruptions in our platform could adversely affect our reputation
and harm our business; we depend on the experience and expertise of our senior
management team and certain key employees, especially engineering, research and
development and sales personnel, and our inability to retain these executive
officers; the markets in which we participate are intensely competitive, and if
we do not compete effectively, our business and operating results could be
adversely affected; we collect, process and store personal information and
furthermore, our platform could be used by customers to do the same, and
evolving domestic and international privacy and security laws, regulations and
other obligations could result in additional costs and liabilities to us or
inhibit sales of our platform. Furthermore, the additional or unforeseen effects
from the COVID-19 pandemic and the global economic climate may amplify many of
these risks. Information concerning risks, uncertainties and other factors that
could cause results to differ materially from the expectations described in this
press release is contained in the company’s filings with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including its quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed
with the SEC on December 2, 2021, and other documents the company may file with
or furnish to the SEC from time to time such as annual reports on Form 10-K,
quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K. These
forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the
company’s views as of any subsequent date and the company undertakes no
obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or
circumstances after the date they were made. The information contained in, or
that can be accessed through, Anaplan’s website and social media channels are
not part of this press release.
