Oracle and Stellent
US Employee FAQ
November 3rd. 2006
NOTE: The following employee questions and answers are for US employees only. Answers may differ on a country-by-country basis - based on applicable local law.
GENERAL QUESTIONS
When will I become an Oracle employee?
As
you are aware, Oracle and Stellent, Inc. have entered into an Agreement and Plan
of Merger for Oracle to acquire Stellent. If this transaction closes and Stellent
is acquired by Oracle, there will be a period when you will remain an employee
of Stellent. Ultimately, Stellent will be reorganized within the Oracle corporate
structure (the Restructuring) and Stellent employees will formally
become Oracle employees. After the Restructuring, your employment will be with
Oracle USA, Inc. or another affiliate of Oracle, as designated by Oracle.
Does that mean that I will no longer be an
employee of Stellent?
After
the closing of the acquisition, you will initially remain a Stellent employee
until the Restructuring concludes. The actual date of hire with Oracle will be
the day after the Restructuring.
What happens to my seniority at Stellent?
Your
hire date at Oracle will be the day you begin work as an Oracle employee. However,
your service date with Stellent will be used to calculate certain service-related
benefits, such as 401(k) and vacation.
Who do I report to?
Until
notified after the closing, you continue to report to your current manager in
your current job.
Will Stellent or Oracle do anything to retain
employees during the acquisition?
Until
the closing of the transaction, Oracle and Stellent remain separate companies.
Our objective is to implement the operating model and manage the integration
in a manner that motivates people to stay with Oracle after the closing of the
transaction.
What if I am offered a job, but do not wish
to join Oracle after the closing?
You
are free to seek other employment. If you choose not to accept our employment
offer after the closing, we ask that you notify us of your decision promptly
and handle your departure with professional courtesy.
What if I am interested in a different job
at Oracle after the closing?
You will
have the ability to apply for new positions after the closing once you have met
Oracles time-in-position guidelines within your own department. Oracles
job posting system is accessible via the web at http://www.oracle.com/corporate/employment/index.html.
Does Oracle offer technical and developmental
training for its employees?
Oracle
offers a wide variety of technical and developmental training programs for its
employees through Oracle University (OU) and Organization & Talent Development
(OTD). These programs will be available post-closing. Employee participation
in training programs must be pre-approved by management.
I am a contractor. Will I continue to work
for Stellent?
Until the closing of
the transactions, Oracle and Stellent remain separate companies. Post-closing,
you should continue with business as usual according to your contract until you
are notified of any change. We will let you know as soon as we have additional
information.

IMMIGRATION QUESTIONS
I have a work visa that is sponsored by Stellent.
Do I have to do anything to transfer that to Oracle post-closing?
Until
the closing of the transactions, Oracle and Stellent remain separate companies.
Post-closing, visa amendment petitions will be filed in the future, but there
is no immediate time deadline to do so. Such filings, which will include information
about the acquisition, will likely be done whenever the next extension petition
is filed for you after the closing.
I have a greencard process sponsored by Stellent,
with a case that is filed and pending, but will Oracle continue the process?
Until
the closing of the transactions, Oracle and Stellent remain separate companies.
Post-closing, Oracle will continue to support these filings to the extent possible and take action on pending
greencard cases as needed in an effort to reach approval on cases.
BENEFITS QUESTIONS
What will happen to my Stellent benefits?
Until
the closing of the transactions, Oracle and Stellent remain separate companies.
Post-closing, once you begin employment as an Oracle employee, you will no longer
be eligible for benefits under Stellents
benefit plans. Instead, you will be asked to select new benefits from the Oracle
benefit plans.
When will my new benefits begin after the closing?
In
general, your benefits will begin upon your date of hire with Oracle.
What benefits does Oracle offer?
Oracle
offers a comprehensive, flexible benefit package that you can tailor to meet
your needs, including medical, dental and vision coverages, disability, life
insurance and 401k.
A detailed description of the Oracle benefit plans will be provided in a separate presentation from Oracle Human Resources as part of the integration process after the closing. You may visit the Oracle Benefits website for general information about the benefits available at: www.oraclebenefits.com Select Read and 2007 Enrollment Guide.
How do Oracles
health plans compare to Stellents?
Oracles
health plans are benchmarked against a select group of High Tech firms and
are extremely competitive. There are five plan options offered through United
Healthcare, and nine regional HMOs offered where available.
If I choose to get
healthcare coverage through my spouse or domestic partner outside of Oracle,
will I receive any sort of credit?
If
you have proof of healthcare coverage elsewhere and decline medical coverage
at Oracle, you will receive a reduced number of flex credits that can be spent
on other benefits, deferred into a 401(k) account, or taken as regular pay.
Are there any pre-existing
condition exclusions in Oracles benefit plans?
There
are no pre-existing condition exclusions in Oracles medical plans. However,
in certain cases for Dental, Long Term Disability and Long Term Care there may
be a waiting period for benefits if a pre-existing condition exists, or if treatment
has already been received. Please refer to the applicable plan documentation
for full information.
What is Oracles
Personal Time Off (PTO) policy?
Oracle has separate vacation and sick time policies and details for each are provided below.
What is Oracles
vacation policy?
Oracle offers the following paid vacation:
Page 2
As a full-time regular employee working at least 35 hours per week, you accrue 13 days of vacation per year (8.67 hours per month) for your first three years of employment, and 18 days per year (12 hours per month) after three years. As a regular employee working 25-34 hours per week, you accrue vacation at a prorated accrual rate of 75% or 6.5 hours per month for your first three years of service and 9 hours per month after three years. As a regular employee working 20-24 hours per week, you accrue vacation at a prorated accrual rate of 50%, or 4.33 hours per month, for your first three years and 6 hours per month after three years.
Maximum vacation accrual at any time during the first three years of employment is 120 hours. After completing three years of employment, maximum vacation accrual at any time is 184 hours. Maximum accruals for regular employees working 20-34 hours per week are also prorated. When you reach your maximum accrual, you stop accruing vacation time until you reduce your balance by taking a vacation and reporting the hours taken.
You may schedule your vacation at any time during the year, with your manager's approval.
*Note: Your service date with Stellent will be honored as your date of service for calculating your vacation accrual rate.
What is Oracles holiday policy?
Oracle has eight scheduled holidays per calendar year:
What is Oracles sick time policy?
If you are a full-time regular employee or a part-time regular employee working at least 20 hours per week, sick leave is provided for short periods of absence up to seven calendar days due to illness, injury or
personal health emergency experienced by you or by a member of your immediate family.
When using sick leave, you are required to notify your manager each day you are unable to report to work. If you are absent for three consecutive days without notifying your manager, it may be considered a voluntary resignation. In addition, the frequency with which you request sick leave must be reasonable and the company may deny the use of sick leave at its discretion.
Sick leave is applicable only when you are unable to work for a period of up to seven calendar days. Absences of more than seven consecutive calendar days due to illness may be covered by the medical leave, family care and medical leave (FMLA) and/or pregnancy disability leave policies.
What is the medical leave policy?
A
medical leave of absence is provided if you are unable to work due to an illness
or injury, including disability due to pregnancy, childbirth or related medical
conditions, for periods in excess of seven calendar days. You may request a
medical leave of absence through Matrix (Oracles leave of absence administrator),
and must meet applicable eligibility requirements. Additionally, you must notify
your manager of your leave and keep your manager updated throughout the status
of your leave.
The first seven calendar days of your disability will be paid as sick leave. For non-pregnancy related disabilities, you may receive up to 83 days of Oracle-sponsored Short Term Disability (STD) pay in a rolling 12 month period, measured backward from the date you go on leave. For pregnancy related
Page 3
disabilities, you may receive up to 118 days of Oracle-sponsored Short Term Disability pay in a rolling 12 month period, measured backward from the date you go on leave. After the exhaustion of your Short Term Disability pay, any additional medical or pregnancy disability leave will be unpaid, though you may be eligible for Long Term Disability (LTD) benefits.
The following chart is a summary of Short Term Disability pay during medical/pregnancy disability leave:
Time Period | Pay Schedule |
Beginning on the eighth calendar day of disability through 63rd day of disability | 100% of base salary |
64th day of disability through 90th day of disability | 66 2/3% of base salary |
91st day of disability through 118th day of disability (PREGNANCY-RELATED DISABILITIES ONLY) | 66 2/3 % of base salary |
* Complete details regarding Oracles medical leave policy are available on the Benefits website.
Does Oracle have an education reimbursement
plan?
Yes. Oracle encourages employees
to further their education in subjects related to work, and to broaden their
knowledge and skills in preparation for possible assumption of new responsibilities.
Oracle believes that the individual growth of its employees not only enhances
their own lives, but also enhances the growth potential of Oracle.
The program is available to regular, full-time employees. Your course study must be related to present or anticipated responsibilities in the Company. You must complete the course with a grade of B or better. Eligible expenses may be reimbursed up to $5,250 per calendar year. Management approval for educational reimbursement is discretionary and always required.
Does Oracle have a 401(k) plan?
Yes.
The Oracle 401(k) Savings and Investment Plan allows you to save money and invest
in your choice of 28 investment options currently offered, including the Oracle
stock fund.
You may contribute from 1 to 40% of your gross income to the plan on a pre-tax basis, subject to applicable IRS limitations. Your deductions are automatically withheld from your paycheck through payroll deductions. You may enroll in the plan or make contribution rate changes on a semi-monthly basis. Employees may enroll in the Oracle 401(k) plan via the Fidelity website at www.401k.com. Employees may also call Fidelity directly at 800-410-2363.
Does Oracle match employee
contributions in the 401(k)?
Yes,
Oracle matches your contributions to the plan at a rate of 50% on your first
6% in contributions each paycheck, up to a plan maximum of $5,100 per year.
Matching contributions vest over a four year period as follows:
Years of Service Completed | Amount Vested After Completion |
One Year | 25% |
Two Years | 50% |
Three Years | 75% |
Four Years | 100% |
* Note: Your service date with Stellent will be considered when determining your date of vesting. |

Does Oracle have a stock purchase plan?
Oracles
Employee Stock Purchase Plan currently allows you to purchase Oracle common stock
at a discounted market price. Further details regarding this program will be
provided prior to the next scheduled enrollment period.
I worked at Oracle before I joined Stellent. Will I receive credit for my prior service time with Oracle?
You will be treated as an Oracle rehire. Your prior service will be credited for certain service-related benefits. In most cases you will be assigned your prior Oracle employee ID number.
FACILITIES AND SUPPLIES QUESTIONS
What will we use for email and office tools?
You
will migrate to Oracles email and extensive set of web-based administration
tools as soon as possible after you formally become an Oracle employee after
the Restructuring.
Will I have to relocate to an Oracle office after the closing?
Oracle Facilities is working to review office space. Where it makes sense, Stellent employees will likely be moved to Oracle offices after the restructuring.
Will I be able to relocate to other locations in the future?
If
you are interested in relocating to another Oracle office in the future, you
may initiate discussions with your organizations management after the closing.
Management approval for relocations is discretionary and always required. Space
assignments will be made by your local facilities department. Workspace assignments
will be determined per Oracle's Space Guidelines (according to title and job
code).
