Microsoft To Invest In Inprise, License
Technology

SCOTTS VALLEY, Calif. (Reuters) - Inprise Corp. (Nasdaq:INPR - news) said
Tuesday it reached a series of agreements with Microsoft Corp. (Nasdaq:MSFT -
news) covering technology licensing and a $25 million investment by Microsoft, that
settled long-standing patent and licensing conflicts between the companies.

Microsoft, the Redmond, Wash.-based software giant, will also pay $100 million to
Inprise for the rights to use Inprise's patented technology in Microsoft products and to settle the disputes.

Under the arrangements, Inprise, a Scotts Valley, Calif., maker of software that simplifies application
development, has agreed to support Microsoft's Windows 2000 operating system by enhancing Inprise's family
of Windows developments tools to support the technology.

It will also license technology from Microsoft for the development of applications for Windows.

Microsoft will buy $25 million of Inprise preferred stock, and has committed to provide Inprise with
technologies related to the Windows platform and with Internet technologies.

Inprise, formerly Borland International, was once considered enough of a threat to Microsoft that Microsoft
Chairman Bill Gates wrote a metaphorical memo to staff directing them to ''kill Philippe,'' referring to Borland
founder Philippe Kahn.

Inprise shares closed at $4 each Monday, before the announcement, on the Nasdaq stock market, off a 52-week
high of $8.625.
