3 A world leader in unlocking the value of legacy A world leader in unlocking the value of legacy  Founded in 1976 and independent in August 2001  Global company with 500+ employees world-wide  Principal offices in the US, UK & Japan Blue chip customer base Blue chip customer base  150K customers  80% of the Global 2000  Global ISV partners (PeopleSoft, Lawson Assoc, FNS,..) Strong partner community Strong partner community  Microsoft (MMA, VSIP, Gold certified)  Tier 1 SI’s (Accenture, CSC, EDS, HP Services,…) Unlocking the value of legacy Micro Focus – at a glance

4 Mainframe migration is very specialized Mainframe migration is very specialized  No significant information sharing  No significant marketing around migration capabilities There is no established ‘mainframe migration’ industry There is no established ‘mainframe migration’ industry  No best practices  No widely recognized ISV’s or System Integrator community  No specialized events Customers have a difficult time getting the information they need… Customers have a difficult time getting the information they need… …and are at the mercy of the mainframe vendor’s opinion about the wisdom of migrating off the mainframe Mainframe Migration Alliance

5 “Add a server here. Upgrade a storage solution there. Throw in a database. And before you know it, the IT system that was once your pride and joy has become an albatross. A complex, hard-to-manage albatross that’s holding your company ransom. Time for change.” Extract from IBM advertisement, November 2004 Time for Change

13 Business Challenge Business Challenge  Very high running costs of VSE application  Lock-out from new user interface technologies to improve competitiveness Solution Solution  Converted to run on Windows in ASCII against UDB databases Outcome Outcome  Batch performance and on-line performance improved  Saving 600k Euros per annum  Positioned to be more agile – new user interface coming Better performance, lower costs and more agility Bertelsmann

14 Dept of Industry & Resources, WA Migrated in 4 months Business Challenges: Business Challenges:  Outsourced mainframe services @ $1.7m and increasing  Need to minimise cost and risk Technical Challenges: Technical Challenges:  8 information systems, 1000 CICS and batch programs, 1500 copybooks and DB2 database. Solution: Solution:  CICS/COBOL with UDB databases on Microsoft Windows  Compile results (996 OK, 5 SQL, 1 Bind, 1 COBOL)  Batch performance and on-line performance improved  Reduced annual running costs by more than 50%  60% saving in support staff
