 EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

Tufin Software Technologies Ltd. or the Company (NYSE: TUFN), today issued the following statement in response to the recent Schedule 13D filings from Catalyst Private Equity Partners (“Catalyst”) and Marker LLC (“Marker”), disclosing that they have formed a group:

 

“Tufin’s Board of Directors and management team are fully committed to acting in the best interests of all shareholders and maximizing long-term value. We regularly engage with shareholders and value their input.

 

Catalyst and Marker are pre-IPO shareholders and are represented on the Company’s Board. While our Board believes the shares of the Company are undervalued, the majority of the Board has reiterated its support for the Company’s long-term strategy and views pursuing it independently as being in the best interests of the Company and all of its shareholders.

 

Although it is disappointing that Catalyst and Marker have chosen to express their positions publicly, we remain committed to working constructively with them through their board representatives and in their capacities as significant shareholders. In the coming days and weeks, the Company intends to continue its program of engagement with its broader shareholder base to articulate key elements of its strategy.”

 

The information in this Form 6-K shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act.
