Item 8 of the Schedule 14D-9 is hereby amended and supplemented by restating the subsection entitled
Legal Proceedings in its entirety as follows:
On September 16, 2020, a putative stockholder lawsuit captioned
Wang v. Rosetta Stone Inc., et al., Case No. 1:20-cv-01237 (D. Del. filed Sept. 16, 2020), was filed against the Company and members of the Companys Board
in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware. On September 17, 2020, a putative stockholder lawsuit captioned Messinger v. Rosetta Stone Inc., et al., Case No.
1:20-cv-07661 (S.D.N.Y. filed Sept. 17, 2020), was filed against the Company and members of the Companys Board in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District
of New York. On September 23, 2020, a putative class action lawsuit captioned Harrison v. Rosetta Stone Inc., et al., Index No. 654635/2020 (Sup. Ct., N.Y. Cnty. filed Sept. 23, 2020), was filed against the Company and members of
the Companys Board in the Supreme Court of the State of New York in the County of New York. On September 24, 2020, a putative class action lawsuit captioned Curtis v. Rosetta Stone Inc., et al., Case No. 1:20-cv-01288 (D. Del. filed Sept. 24, 2020), was filed against the Company, members of the Companys Board, Parent and Acquisition Sub in the U.S. District Court for the
District of Delaware. All four lawsuits allege that the Companys Schedule 14D-9 omits certain material information necessary for stockholders to make an informed decision whether to tender
their shares, with respect to the financial data, inputs and assumptions underlying Goldman Sachs opinion, and various details in the section of the Schedule 14D-9 entitled
Background of the Offer. Plaintiffs in the Wang, Messinger and Curtis actions assert claims under the federal securities laws and the rules promulgated thereunder. Plaintiffs in
the Messinger and Harrison actions allege that the members of the Companys Board breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the Transactions. As relief, plaintiffs seek, among other things, to enjoin the
Transactions from closing until additional allegedly material information is disclosed or, in the alternative, rescission (or rescissory damages) if the Transactions close, as well as an award of their costs and disbursements, including reasonable
attorneys fees. We believe that plaintiffs allegations lack merit.
