TIME IS SHORT - YOUR VOTE IS CRUCIAL!
VOTE FOR ALL OF THE SUPPORT.COM NOMINEES
TO THE BOARD
ON THE WHITE PROXY CARD TODAY!
May 31, 2016
Dear Fellow Support.com Stockholder:
Support.com Inc.’s 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders is quickly approaching. On Friday, June 24, 2016, you will be making a critical decision regarding the future of Support.com, whether to continue to support the transition of Support.com, which is well underway, into a leading provider of cloud-based technology and services for the new, connected world, or surrender control of the Support.com Board of Directors to a dissident stockholder group with a self-interested and short-sighted agenda that could prevent you from realizing the long-term value of your investment in Support.com. This dissident stockholder group has presented no alternative strategic plan or substantive and viable ideas for creating long-term stockholder value or even any tangible, practical and viable ideas for enhancing stockholder value in the short-term. Your vote is critically important, no matter how many shares you own. This may be the most important vote you have ever made regarding Support.com and its future.
We strongly urge you to protect the value of your investment by voting the enclosed WHITE proxy card today FOR ALL six of the highly-qualified and very experienced nominees unanimously recommended by the Support.com Board of Directors: Elizabeth Cholawsky, Liz Fetter, Toni Portmann, Lowell Robinson, Tim Stanley and Jim Stephens. Ms. Fetter and Messrs. Robinson and Stanley are our newest independent directors and joined your Board within the past 90 days. They bring to your Board valuable and fresh perspectives and substantial experience with highly-regarded privately-held and public companies across a wide array of industries and sectors, which we believe significantly enhances your Board’s breadth and depth and bolsters Support.com’s knowledge base as we continue to develop, execute and refine our strategic plan.
As you may be aware, VIEX Capital Advisors, LLC and the other members of its dissident investor group, including Eric Singer, Bradley Radoff and Joshua Schechter (the “VIEX Group”), who beneficially own, in the aggregate, approximately 14.9% of our shares, are waging a proxy contest to take control of your recently refreshed Board by replacing five of the six members of your Board – including the three highly-qualified and very experienced Board members who joined your Board within the last 90 days – with its own nominees. We strongly believe the five nominees proposed by the VIEX Group, none of whom have any experience in the market for cloud-based support services, lack the necessary and relevant experience, expertise, qualifications and industry knowledge to advance the development, execution and refinement of our strategic plan for growth and the creation of long-term stockholder value and, most importantly, lack the experience to determine when and how to refine and adapt our strategic plan as needed in response to the support market’s changing dynamics. As such, given their lack of experience relevant to the advancement of our strategic direction, we strongly believe that the VIEX Group’s proposed nominees are ill-suited to abruptly take control of your Board and oversee Support.com’s strategic direction at such a critical and pivotal time in Support.com’s trajectory.
RECENTLY REFRESHED AND DIVERSE BOARD OF HIGHLY-QUALIFIED, VERY EXPERIENCED AND ENGAGED DIRECTORS IS OVERSEEING THE DEVELOPMENT, REFINEMENT AND EXECUTION OF SUPPORT.COM’S STRATEGIC PLAN
Your Board is committed to proactively examining its composition and ensuring that it has the right mix of insights, experiences and competencies to help oversee the development, execution and refinement of our strategic growth plan and the creation of long-term stockholder value. We also recognize that we need to balance the value of recruiting new independent directors with experiences, competencies, insights and perspectives that expand the depth and breadth of your Board with the importance of retaining access to directors with critical institutional knowledge and memory.
PLEASE VOTE THE WHITE PROXY CARD TODAY
Consistent with our commitment to proactive refreshment of your Board, well before the VIEX Group began its inflammatory and distracting campaign to seek control of Support.com, we initiated a thorough search process to refresh your Board. As a result of our thorough director search and an extensive vetting process, three new independent, highly-qualified and very experienced directors - Liz Fetter, Lowell Robinson and Tim Stanley – were added to your Board within the past 90 days, replacing half of your Board. Consider the following with respect to these three new directors:
· | All three new directors are standing for election at the 2016 Annual Meeting. |
· | All three new directors replaced incumbent directors who voluntarily resigned. |
· | All three new directors have extensive senior management and governance experience at leading public companies. |
· | All three new directors have experience overseeing business transitions and/or transformations that drove stockholder value creation. |
· | All three new directors have public company board and leadership experience, including experience leading key board committees. |
· | All three new directors have substantial experience serving as executives or board members at publicly-traded technology companies. |
· | All three new directors are aligned with, and committed to acting in, the best interests of ALL stockholders. |
As a result of our recent refreshment, we believe your Board of highly-qualified and very experienced directors, led by an independent Chairman, possesses the right mix of skills and experiences necessary to oversee management as it executes on its plans for returning Support.com to sustained and profitable revenue growth and the creation of stockholder value. The current members of your Board are proven business leaders that have served in leadership positions at public and private companies, including many well-known and highly-regarded companies such as Adobe, Citigroup, Citrix, Diebold, General Foods, Harrah’s Entertainment, HotJobs.com, IBM and SalesForce.com, and bring to your Board a broad and diverse set of skills and experiences important to overseeing our business and its strategic direction. While our definitive proxy materials provide more detail on the backgrounds of our highly-qualified and very experienced director nominees, consider the following with respect to such nominees:
· | Elizabeth Cholawsky |
o | Joined Support.com in May 2014 as President and CEO and in July 2014 became a member of the Board. |
o | An award-winning product thought leader with deep expertise leading the development and marketing of innovative SaaS offerings for support-related markets. |
o | Prior management and executive roles with Citrix Systems, Inc. where she revitalized product development and client services, grew customer satisfaction and retention to their highest levels, and expanded key products to a broader market, all while continuing to lead the GoToAssist and GoToMyPC products in their #1 position in their respective markets for 5 consecutive years. |
· | Liz Fetter (NEW DIRECTOR) |
o | Member of the Board since March 2016. |
o | Member of Strategy and Audit Committees. |
o | As a five-time former CEO, brings significant leadership and technology experience to Support.com, having led companies in networking, equipment and B2B SaaS spaces. |
o | Extensive experience overseeing business transformations at technology companies resulting in revenue growth and value creation for stockholders. |
o | Extensive public company board and leadership experience. |
· | Toni Portmann |
o | Member of the Board since February 2011. |
o | Chair of Nominating/Governance Committee; Compensation Committee member. |
o | More than 30 years of leadership experience in service, sales, and marketing, including at technology companies such as Diebold, Inc. and IBM Corporation. |
o | Extensive experience leading large-scale world-class technical support operations. |
PLEASE VOTE THE WHITE PROXY CARD TODAY
o | Former CEO of Trivac Ltd. (d/b/a LIT OnLine), an e-learning SaaS platform company. |
· | Lowell Robinson (NEW DIRECTOR) |
o | Member of the Board since March 2016. |
o | Chair of Audit Committee; Compensation Committee Member. |
o | 30 years of global strategic, financial, turnaround and M&A experience. |
o | Prior senior leadership roles at both public and private technology and software services companies, including well-known technology companies such as HotJobs.com. |
o | Extensive public company board and leadership experience. |
· | Tim Stanley (NEW DIRECTOR) |
o | Member of the Board since March 2016. |
o | Member of Nominating/Governance, Audit and Strategy Committees. |
o | Award-winning technology leader and innovator in cloud-based and technology solutions. |
o | Extensive experience in developing and bringing to market cloud-enabled solutions for a broad range of enterprise customers. |
o | Prior senior executive and technology leadership roles at SalesForce.com and Harrah’s. |
o | Public company board and leadership experience as well as past service as an advisor and/or board member at a number of privately-held and venture capital-backed technology companies. |
· | Jim Stephens |
o | Member of the Board since October 2006. |
o | Chairman of the Board and Chair of Compensation and Strategy Committees; Nominating/Governance Committee member. |
o | Extensive institutional knowledge of Support.com and the support market. |
o | Extensive experience in executive management, sales, marketing and M&A. |
o | Former member of Adobe Incorporated’s executive management team where he was instrumental in driving Adobe’s growth from $900 million to almost $2 billion in annual revenue. |
As shown above, the current members of your recently refreshed Board, including the three independent directors who joined your Board within the past 90 days, collectively, have substantial experience and expertise relevant to the advancement of our strategic plan, including extensive experience serving in leadership positions at well-known publicly-held technology companies and extensive experience leading business transformations that drove stockholder value creation. Most importantly, given their strong and relevant backgrounds, the current members of your Board are extremely capable of assessing when and how to refine and adapt our strategic plan as needed in response to the support market’s changing dynamics.
In stark contrast, we believe the VIEX Group and its proposed nominees, who to date have failed to present an alternative and viable strategic plan for Support.com, lack relevant experience and understanding of the market for cloud-based support services and its changing dynamics and, accordingly, would be unable to advance our strategic plan or refine and adapt our strategic direction as needed in response to the market’s changing dynamics.
Given the transition under way at Support.com, we are also concerned that the lack of relevant knowledge and expertise of the VIEX Group and its proposed nominees, particularly when compared to the knowledge, expertise, qualifications and experience of the members of your recently refreshed Board, make them ill-suited to abruptly take control of your Board and oversee Support.com’s strategic direction at such a pivotal and critical time in Support.com’s trajectory and could lead to the perception of a change in the direction of the business, instability or lack of continuity which may be exploited by our competitors, cause concern to our current or potential customers, result in the loss of potential business opportunities and make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified personnel and business partners.
PROTECT THE VALUE OF YOUR INVESTMENT BY VOTING THE WHITE PROXY CARD TODAY
We strongly believe that allowing the VIEX Group to abruptly obtain control of your Board risks destabilizing the
PLEASE VOTE THE WHITE PROXY CARD TODAY
execution of our ongoing initiatives for creating value for all Support.com stockholders, could undo much of the progress your Board and management team have made in developing and executing on our strategic growth plan and could ultimately result in stockholders being deprived of the opportunity to realize the long-term value of their investment in Support.com. In addition, given the transition under way at Support.com, we are also concerned that the lack of relevant knowledge and expertise of the VIEX Group and its proposed nominees make them ill-suited to abruptly take control of your Board and oversee Support.com’s strategic direction at such a pivotal and critical time in Support.com’s trajectory.
Your Board of Directors strongly urges you to protect the value of your investment and not allow the VIEX Group to take control of your Board and further its self-interested and short-sighted agenda by voting FOR ALL your Board’s very experienced and highly-qualified nominees, three of whom just joined your Board less than 90 days ago, by voting the enclosed WHITE proxy card TODAY. Stockholders may vote by telephone or Internet, or by signing, dating and returning the enclosed WHITE proxy card in the postage paid envelope provided. Your Board also urges you to vote only the WHITE proxy card and discard any gold proxy card you have received or may receive from the VIEX Group and reject its attempt to further its self-interested and short-term agenda by taking control of Support.com without paying our stockholders any control premium.
VOTE THE WHITE PROXY CARD TODAY
At Support.com’s upcoming Annual Meeting, you will be making a critical decision regarding the future of your investment in Support.com, whether to continue to support Support.com’s transition, which is well underway, into a leading provider of cloud-based technology and services for the new, connected world, or surrender control of your Board to the VIEX Group, a dissident stockholder group with a self-interested and short-sighted agenda that could prevent you from realizing the long-term value of your investment in Support.com. The VIEX Group has presented no alternative strategic plan or substantive or viable ideas for creating long-term stockholder value or even any tangible, practical and viable ideas for enhancing stockholder value in the short-term. In addition, the VIEX Group has not provided any details on how such an abrupt change in control of your Board, at a very critical and pivotal time in Support.com’s trajectory, and the replacement of five out of six of the current members of your Board with the VIEX Group’s nominees, none of which have any experience relevant to the advancement of our strategic plan, would be accomplished so as not to cause significant and substantial harm to our business and prospects, including, but not limited to, our relationships with our employees, customers and partners.
Your vote is critically important, no matter how many shares you own and this may be the most important vote you have ever made regarding Support.com and its future. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to sign and return the enclosed WHITE proxy card in the postage-paid envelope provided and vote FOR ALL your Board’s highly-qualified and very experienced nominees - Elizabeth Cholawsky, Elizabeth Fetter, Lowell Robinson, Toni Portmann, Tim Stanley, and Jim Stephens. You may also vote by telephone or Internet by following the instructions on the enclosed WHITE proxy card.
You may receive an opposing proxy statement and proxy card and letters or other proxy solicitation materials from the VIEX Group. Your Board does not endorse any of the VIEX Group nominees. We urge stockholders NOT to sign or return any proxy card or voting instruction form that you have received or may receive from the VIEX Group or any person other than Support.com, even as a protest vote, as only your latest dated proxy card or voting instruction form will be counted at the Annual Meeting. Even a WITHHOLD vote with respect to the VIEX Group’s nominees on its gold proxy card will cancel any proxy previously given to Support.com. If you previously signed a gold proxy card sent to you by the VIEX Group, you can revoke that proxy card and vote for your Board’s unanimously recommended nominees by signing, dating and returning the enclosed WHITE proxy card or by re-voting by telephone or Internet or at the Annual Meeting. Only your latest-dated proxy card or voting instruction form will count.
On behalf of your Board of Directors, we thank you for your continued support.
Sincerely, | |
