<p>The source code management features contained in Versions 2.0 enable<br />
programmers to improve development quality and productivity, enabling<br />
project completion on time and within budget. Rene Bonvanie, Oracle's<br />
Senior Director of Product Marketing, said, "By integrating Versions 2.0<br />
with the Developer/2000 tool, our customers will receive enhanced value and<br />
functionality. This agreement brings Oracle customers more choices, and<br />
StarBase gains exposure and upsell possibilities with more than 500,000<br />
Oracle software developers."</p>
<p>Oracle and StarBase Alliance</p>
<p>The alliance between the two companies, initially established in November,<br />
is enhanced through this non-exclusive bundling agreement. A fully<br />
functional copy of Versions 2.0 will be included with certain future<br />
shipments of Developer/2000 starting with version 1.4W, scheduled to ship<br />
in the Spring. The recipients of version 1.4W will receive, in conjunction<br />
with Oracle's Open Tools Initiative (OTI) program, a CD-ROM containing<br />
Versions 2.0 and product demos of a range of other companies' programming<br />
tools. Versions 2.0 is the first fully functional software configuration<br />
management product offered on the OTI disk. Versions 2.0 offers version<br />
control, visual differencing, build and milestone management, audit logs,<br />
security, and an advanced project repository for application and web site<br />
developers.</p>
<p>Relevance to StarBase's New Market Segmentation</p>
<p>Earlier this month, the Company announced a three-tiered market<br />
segmentation strategy which management believes will broaden market<br />
acceptance of Versions 2.0 and the growing family of StarTeam products.<br />
Today's announcement is the first of several agreements which will be<br />
announced in the near future as the Company implements its new strategy<br />
targeting three distinct segments of the Software Configuration Management<br />
(SCM) market and represents a major inroad into establishing a presence in<br />
the entry-level market segment.</p>
<p>Versions 2.0 is an entry-level, first tier product that provides a direct<br />
upgrade path to a fully scalable family of StarTeam products that will be<br />
offered for all three market segments. Versions 2.0 offers basic SCM<br />
capabilities that are necessary to build quality software. An upgrade from<br />
Versions to second or third tier StarTeam products adds team collaboration,<br />
workflow, virtual team facilities with Internet/intranet connectivity, and<br />
more sophisticated SCM capabilities.</p>
<p>StarBase, with headquarters in Irvine, Calif., offers a complete family of<br />
SCM products designed to fill the needs of application and web site<br />
developers and teams. StarTeam has won several awards including PC Week<br />
Analyst's Choice (10/96), PC Week 1996 IT Excellence Award (4/96) and PC<br />
Week LABS Top Product of 1995 (12/95). More information is available by<br />
