As previously reported, on September 26, 2020, MobileIron,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company” or “MobileIron”),
entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger
Agreement”) with Ivanti, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”),
and Oahu Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub” and, together with
Parent, the “Buyer Parties”). The
Merger Agreement provides that, subject to the terms and conditions
set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and
into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the
Merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of
Parent.
The Merger is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain
closing conditions including, among other things, the expiration or
termination of the applicable waiting period under the
Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended
(the “HSR Waiting Period”). The HSR Waiting Period expired on
November 2, 2020 at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time.
Subject to obtaining MobileIron stockholder approval and the
satisfaction of other closing conditions to the Merger, the Company
currently expects to complete the Merger later in the current
quarter or early in the first quarter of 2021.
How to Find Further Information
This communication does not constitute a solicitation of any vote
or approval in connection with the proposed acquisition of
MobileIron, Inc. (“MobileIron”) by Ivanti, Inc. (the “Merger”). In
connection with the proposed Merger, MobileIron has filed a proxy
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(“SEC”). Beginning
on October 26, 2020, MobileIron mailed the proxy statement to its
stockholders. BEFORE MAKING ANY VOTING DECISION, WE URGE
STOCKHOLDERS TO READ THE PROXY STATEMENT (INCLUDING ALL AMENDMENTS
AND SUPPLEMENTS THERETO) AND OTHER DOCUMENTS FILED WITH THE SEC

to the failure to obtain stockholder approval or the failure to
satisfy other conditions to completion of the Merger; (4) risks

the Merger; (5) the impact, if any, of the announcement or pendency
of the Merger on the Company’s relationships with customers; (6)
the amount of the costs, fees, expenses and charges related to the
Merger and the actual terms of certain financings that will be
obtained for the Merger; and (7) other risks that are set forth
under “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2019 and the Company’s Quarterly
Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2020, June
