VITRIA APPEALS NASDAQ NOTICE REGARDING MINIMUM BID PRICE

SUNNYVALE, Calif. – April 30, 2003 – Vitria®, (Nasdaq:VITR), a leading provider of business process integration solutions, today announced it has received a Nasdaq Staff Determination stating that the company has failed to comply with the $1.00 per share minimum bid price required for continued listing on the Nasdaq National Market. Accordingly, Vitria’s common stock is subject to delisting from the Nasdaq National Market. Vitria is currently in compliance with all other requirements for continued listing on the National Market.

Vitria has requested an oral hearing before a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel to review the delisting determination. Although there can be no assurance that the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel will grant the company’s request for continued listing on the National Market, the hearing request will stay the delisting of the company’s common stock pending the panel’s decision. Oral hearings are typically held approximately 45 days after the filing of an appeal.

On April 22, 2003, Vitria filed a definitive proxy statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission that includes, among other items, a proposal for a reverse stock split. The proposal seeks authorization from Vitria’s stockholders to grant the company’s Board of Directors the discretion to implement a reverse stock split in the range of 2:1 to 6:1. Votes on the proposal will be counted at the annual stockholders’ meeting, which is on May 16, 2003. Even if stockholders approve the resolution, the Board will have the discretion on whether to implement the reverse stock split.
