This communication may be deemed to be solicitation material in respect of the proposed transaction involving Model N and affiliates of Vista Equity Partners. In connection with the proposed transaction, Model N intends to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and furnish to stockholders a proxy statement and WHITE proxy card.
