Oracle: Chmn To Exercise Options Before End Of Summer

Dow Jones Newswires

WASHINGTON -- Oracle Corp. (ORCL) Chairman and Chief Executive Lawrence Ellison's
registration of 5 million company shares is the beginning of a series of stock option-related sales to
occur before the end of the summer, Jennifer Glass, Oracle vice president of corporate public
relations, told Federal Filings Business News Thursday.

As reported, a Form 144 released earlier Thursday by the Securities and Exchange Commission
showed that Ellison intended to sell 5 million common shares of the company on approximately Jan.
22.

Glass couldn't confirm the sale of the 5 million shares but did say that their sale was option-related.

According to Glass, Ellison has stock options in the company that are set to expire at the end of this
summer.

She didn't know how many options the chairman had to exercise but said he'll be making more
registrations with the SEC in the coming months to exercise all of them before the end of the summer.

Glass said that, as of December, Ellison owned about 690 million company shares, or a 24.2% stake
in Oracle.
