The following amendments to Item 11 and Item 12 of the Schedule TO are hereby made.

Section (a)(5) of Item 11 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
 
Litigation .
 
On March 29, 2013, a putative shareholder class action complaint against MakeMusic and certain other parties was filed in the Fourth Judicial District Court of Minnesota. The complaint, captioned Dr. Ezekiel Kruglick v. MakeMusic, Inc., et al. , names as defendants the members of MakeMusic’s Board of Directors, as well as MakeMusic, Parent, Parent Sponsor and Purchaser (the “ Defendants ”). The plaintiff alleges that MakeMusic’s directors breached their fiduciary duties to MakeMusic’s shareholders.  The plaintiff further claims that MakeMusic, Parent, Parent Sponsor and Purchaser aided and abetted the purported breaches of fiduciary duty. The plaintiff further alleges that MakeMusic’s directors violated certain sections of the Minnesota Business Corporation Act regarding director fiduciary duties, conflicts of interest and disinterested director consideration of business combinations.  The complaint alleges, among other things, that in approving the proposed transaction between MakeMusic and Parent and Purchaser, MakeMusic Board members accepted an inadequate price and acted to put their personal interests ahead of the interests of MakeMusic shareholders. The complaint seeks injunctive relief, including enjoining the transaction, imposition of a constructive trust, attorneys’ fees, experts’ fees, other costs and disbursements and other relief.  The Defendants believe that the claims made in the complaint are without merit. The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complaint, which is filed as Exhibit (a)(5)(ii) hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
