THE LAWRENCE J. ELLISON REVOCABLE TRUST

101 YGNACIO VALLEY ROAD, SUITE #320
WALNUT CREEK, CALIFORNIA 94596

TELEPHONE: (925) 977-9060
FACSIMILE: (925) 977-9099

 

December 21, 2025

 

To Whom It May Concern:

 

This letter serves to address questions recently raised regarding The Lawrence J. Ellison Revocable Trust u/a/d 1/22/1988, as amended (the “Trust”) in connection with the proposed merger of Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc. (“WBD”) and Paramount Skydance Corporation (“Paramount”).

 

The Trust was created in 1988, and there has been one and only one Lawrence J. Ellison Revocable Trust in existence since. Over the past 35+ years, the Trust has been amended on several occasions. Prior to 2020, the Ellison family office utilized nomenclature which referenced the Trust’s most recent amendment - for example, “The Lawrence J. Ellison Trust u/a 7/11/12 as amended.”

 

Consistent with the representations and warranties provided by the Trust and Mr. Larry Ellison in the Ellison Guarantee, we also write to confirm that the Trust owns Mr. Ellison’s shares of Oracle stock (see attached ownership records from Oracle’s transfer agent) and that the Trust has no material liabilities (other than liabilities resulting from the pledging arrangements disclosed in Oracle’s proxy statement). We note there are a total of 3 accounts with the transfer agent consisting of such Oracle shares, with former co-trustee Philip Simon listed on two accounts. These two accounts remain because they reference specific, physically certificated shares (with then-trustee Philip Simon listed on the certificates), long held in bank vaults.

 

Kind regards,

 

 

Paul T. Marinelli, Co-Trustee
