SirsiDynix Product Announcement

Horizon 8.0 updates at ALC and Focus Day at CPL in 2006 –6 beta sites (plus 4 other sites) in production with Horizon 8.0 –Planned release of Horizon 8.0 was Q Announcement in March 2007 to abandon Horizon 8.0 product and focus our development efforts on the Unicorn/Rome platform Since announcing Rome, we’ve spoken with hundreds of customers. Throughout those discussions, several common themes emerged. –What REALLY happened with Horizon 8/Corinthian and why? –When did you know you were going to change product direction? –Do you understand the inconvenience this has caused many of your customers? –How can we have confidence that this newly announced direction will really happen?

What REALLY Happened and Why? October 2006 CODI Conference Talin Bingham, SirsiDynix CTO, announced using Compuware tools for better control of development process. November and December 2006 Development team implemented the tools on Horizon 8.0 January and February 2007 results of testing indicated serious problems that could take 18 months to fix. –Bandwidth –Hardware –Stability –Horizon 7.3 Feature Parity

Previous Projections for 8.0, 8.1 & 8.2 Rollout Horizon/Corinthian 8.0 –GA beginning of 2007 –TeleCirc, Talking Tech, Debt Collect, base language support Horizon/Corinthian 8.1 –Beta Q –GA beginning Q –Media Scheduling, search enhancements, additional language support Horizon/Corinthian 8.2 –Beta Q –GA beginning Q –Electronic Resource Management

What REALLY Happened and Why? Detailed review of Unicorn as platform for future –70% of Code had already been re-engineered –New Java Interface –HTML-based Interface development work started –Runs on Relational Database –Unicode compliant –More functionally rich than Horizon 8.0 –Stable, Proven, High Quality Decision was made to use Unicorn as base code moving forward –Much easier to infuse Unicorn with key Horizon functionality than to continue to delay 8.0 release (18 months or more) –8.0 show-stoppers not an issue with Unicorn

When did you know you were going to change product direction? Decision made by senior management week prior to announcement CODI and UUGI boards contacted Monday morning 8.0 production customers contacted Monday and Tuesday Internal Monday afternoon Company meeting Tuesday morning Customer notification Tuesday afternoon

Do you understand the inconvenience this has caused many of your customers? Communicated decision immediately Decision based on critical stability, quality and performance Allows SirsiDynix to spend more time and resources developing new and improved functionality to all customers as apposed to spending time stabilizing Horizon 8.0 performance. Many Dynix and Horizon customers have been waiting years for the functionality promised in Horizon 8.0 Unicorn/Rome offers an upgrade path for all customers now

How can we have confidence that this newly announced direction will really happen? SirsiDynix knew that the announcement could impact your trust in us as a vendor Attend a demo of Unicorn See what we release this year We’ll prove to you that this is the best decision by what we deliver
