Welcome
Dear all,

We are now at the start of an exciting journey for us as a company. The combination of two world class sales teams -
like Cisco and TANDBERG - will transform and disrupt the collaboration market.

The integration team has worked hard to develop a comprehensive integration plan, and all of the sales-related elements
of this plan are included in this playbook.

Our work has centered on a set of key principles that should also be kept in mind as we start to engage with the broader
Cisco organization:
 Do no harm to our existing business. We have strong sales momentum, with a winning sales operation in place We
need to make sure we maintain the momentum – not allowing ourselves to get distracted.
 Leverage Cisco’s global scale and Go-to-Market model. We have developed a plan that will motivate the broader Cisco
organization to embrace our combined opportunity – we need to make sure we proactively seek opportunities to
capitalize on this excitement.
 Capture quick wins. Let us go out and focus on tangible short term customer and partner wins where we can show the
market that this is a winning combination.

A lot of hard work has been put into the integration planning – now it is time to execute! All of us play an important part
in making this happen, and we are counting on you!

Please spend some time to review the content of this playbook, as it will provide you very valuable input to make this
integration successful.

Good Selling!

Geir

The Engagement Model
Who does what when it comes to selling the Cisco TelePresence and TANDBERG products between close
and when all the products are on the Cisco pricelist?

 It is critical to understand that the Cisco and TANDBERG teams should be identifying opportunities for the
products of both companies and working together to sell them. That said we will be on separate ERP systems for
several months and thus the quoting to ordering processes will remain separate.

Market Overview
Collaboration

Cisco Collaboration Market Overview


Cisco TelePresence is part of the Collaboration portfolio. To position Cisco TelePresence you need to understand the context
of the Collaboration strategy and architecture.
Business today increasingly requires interactions among companies, including partners and suppliers. The people you work
with may be spread across time zones, sometimes even globally, and you may never meet many of them face to face.
A well-defined collaboration architecture connects multiple decision makers in multiple locations across multiple networks to
improve and accelerate interactions among people, allowing teams to form more quickly and find the information that is
relevant to them faster.

Market Overview
TelePresence/Video
What is our joint Cisco-TANDBERG business plan, with a focus on GTM?
 Our plan is focused on leveraging Cisco’s routes-to-market and TANDBERG’s video specialty to grow worldwide
sales. We will do this in two waves:

First Wave
 Expand TelePresence video sales specialist org to include 800+ TANDBERG field org within Collab Sales
 Align to, leverage Cisco’s WW sales organization, scale and operational excellence
 TANDBERG products orderable only on TANDBERG’s price list with TANDBERG discounts
 Maintain TANDBERG’s existing video channel and Cisco video channel, articulate plan for integrated approach
 Capture quick wins via ―Going on Offense‖ Program
 Position integrated TTG portfolio as telepresence, part of Cisco collaboration portfolio
 Rigorous cross-training
 Honor existing support agreements while integrated services offering is architected and articulated

Second Wave
 TANDBERG products orderable through Cisco
 Optimize coverage model
 Integrate TANDBERG’s partner program into Cisco’s partner program as a specialization
 Integrated services portfolio

 The TANDBERG GTM model will fold into the current Cisco model – the existing TANDBERG sales force will roll into the
existing Collaboration sales force under Carl Weise. The TANDBERG sales force will evolve into the new TelePresence
Video Sales Specialist (TVSS) led by Geir Olsen. Cisco will begin to articulate plans and strategy for a joint channel
program. For intercompany capabilities, Cisco will continuing its focus on enabling SPs to offer services, and augment
those services with ―do it yourself‖ and hybrid (on premise plus cloud) offerings.

Products and Roadmaps
Product Interoperability
What is the interoperability roadmap for the combined Cisco TelePresence products?
 The combination of standards-based Cisco and TANDBERG interoperability technology is market-leading. All Cisco
TelePresence endpoints, whether single-screen units for individual use or large meeting room environments, are
interoperable with all standards-based video conferencing at SD and HD resolutions. Cisco offers compelling
solutions for interoperability today across vendors and technologies in four areas:
1.For standard videoconferencing, we now offer Cisco Unified Video Conferencing and TANDBERG standards-
compliant endpoints and infrastructure, including multipoint control units (MCUs) and TelePresence servers.
2.For telepresence interoperability, the standards-based telepresence Interoperability Protocol enables native
telepresence interoperability. Cisco is implementing TIP on the CTS portfolio, while at the same time handing TIP
over to the IMTC to be evolved as an industry standard. Cisco will support telepresence standards as they are
adopted.
3.The Cisco TelePresence architecture already provides interoperability and integration with a host of collaboration
applications such as Cisco WebEx, digital media and solutions other companies.
4.Cisco TelePresence also interoperates across company and network boundaries with intercompany Cisco
TelePresence technologies and services, available through partners.

What to sell when
Now that I have CTS and TANDBERG end-points, what shall I sell when?
 You will be able to offer more choice for the customer and strengthen your ability to compete on every dimension with the
competition. You will sometimes benefit from using your knowledge of the customer, existing technology investments and
competitive landscape to lead with one set of endpoints. With CTS and T3/T1 it is like iPhone and Blackberry: They are
both excellent communication tools and share a lot of common features and serve similar business needs. To some
extent, the customer will choose based on subjective preference (like interface and design). However, there are also some
areas one endpoint will be stronger than the other and vice versa. Diagram below gives some suggested guidance, but
you will need to tailor to each customer. Please leverage your Business Solution team to help you on larger opportunities.

Deal Process and Approvals
Will there be any changes to the deals approval process?
 In general, the Deal Approval Process which you are currently familiar with (using the CAPS tool) will remain the same.
However, for accounting reasons (see revenue recognition chapter), you should pay attention to the following:
 Avoid giving special discounts on services (any discount beyond the standard partner discount)! This becomes
even more important when we become part of Cisco
 Avoid providing special terms to deal since providing any special terms to the deal has revenue recognition
implications and corresponding sales compensation implications (if done without prior approval). These might require
Cisco approval on top of the current Finance approval we apply. Examples of special terms can be:
 Special Acceptance Terms
 Non-Standard Shipping terms
 Extended Payment terms - BEYOND APPROVED TERMS FOR PARTICULAR PARTNER
 Early or Partial Ship requested
 Non Standard or Extended Warranty
 Special SLA's
 Right Of Return (ROR)
 Loss/Negative margin on entire contract or on undelivered element
 Free elements included in the deal
 Bill and Hold Transaction
 Try & Buy
 All deals in which Cisco and TANDBERG products are negotiated together
will have to follow the Joint Deal Desk process described in the following pages.
The process is very similar to the one you follow today but you will have to
involve your Cisco counterpart so the deal can be recorded and approved on
Cisco systems. You will also have to highlight in SFDC that this is a Joint Deal
with Cisco and put the Cisco Deal ID (7 digits number) for cross reference:

Revenue Recognition (Risk of Revenue Deferral)
There are rules around revenue recognition which, depending on specific sales activities or deal terms, can pose risks of
revenue deferrals. This section provides an introduction to what activities / deal terms pose revenue deferral risks.

What is Revenue Recognition and why should I care?


 In most cases you can continue following the normal TANDBERG guidelines! However, Cisco operates under different
accounting policies than TANDBERG and hence there are some deal-scenarios which you may need Finance help to
process (but we can still do the deals) . As we join Cisco it is important to comply with these standards as we otherwise
risk having to postpone parts of our revenue to later periods. While this is an accounting issue, the way we structure
deals has a lot of influence on revenue recognition so you should be aware of those and try to
minimize their impact. Please engage with your finance contact if you encounter these special deal terms – unapproved
terms can have sales compensation implications.

What are some of the reasons which might cause a deal to be subject to revenue deferral?
1. Special Terms like: 3. Credit risk
a) Special Acceptance Criteria 4. Excessive discounting for services
b) Most Favoured Nation (MFN) clauses 5. Loss/Negative margin on entire contract or on undelivered
c) Non-Standard Shipping terms element
d) Early or Partial Ship requested 6. Free elements included in the deal
e) Non Standard or Extended Warranty 7. Bill and Hold Transaction
f) Special SLA's 8. Try & Buy
g) Right Of Return (ROR) 9. Future Product Commitments
2. Extended Payment terms (beyond approved terms 10. A joint deal, including a joint response to RFP (TANDBERG
for the particular partner) and Cisco elements under a single negotiation process)

See Revenue Recognition FAQ under the sales playbook on the CAC website for details. If in doubt, please consult with
Finance.

Sales Processes
Revenue Recognition (Risk of Revenue Deferral)
What happens if I need to offer ―special terms & discounts‖ or if a deal requires we do a ―joint deal‖?
 If you need to offer special terms & discounts or if you need to create a Joint deal you just need to notify Finance before
agreeing the deal and they will assist you in taking the necessary steps to manage ―revenue recognition‖ issues. This
process will still be fast and easy, but it does require Finance assistance. If possible it is preferable to try to structure
deals so that we avoid these extra steps.

How to structure deals to avoid creating ―joint sales‖ from a revenue recognition perspective:
Separate Negotiations The two deals are negotiated separately by two distinct teams.
Independent Pricing The negotiation of fees/discounts needs to be independent of each other. For example, a
customer should not get a large discount on one deal for the sake of closing the other deal.
Independent Payment Terms The payment terms of the two deals are independent. For example, payment for the other
Cisco product should not be contingent upon TANDBERG delivery or performance.
No Payment Dependencies The fee for one deal is not subject to refund if the other deal is not completed satisfactorily.
No Technological/Functional TANDBERG offerings and other Cisco products are not dependent upon one another in
Dependencies terms of design, technology or function.

As with current operations, all contracts (with partners or end users) need to be reviewed by Legal before they are signed.
When in doubt about potential revenue recognition implications, please consult with Bob Ricci for Americas
(bob.ricci@tandberg.com), Karen McNichol for EMEA (karen.mcnichol@tandberg.com), or Layyem Lee for APAC
(layyem.lee@tandberg.com) BEFORE agreeing on deal terms. Non-standard deal terms that are not PRE-approved could
have compensation deferral implications.

See Revenue Recognition FAQ for details under the sales playbook on the CAC website.

General Questions
Where do I go for HR, Benefits, Stock, IT, questions?
Cisco Acquisition Connection (CAC )

What Cisco office can I go to? How do I get in?


As soon as your are on-boarded to Cisco and receive your badge you will be able to access any Cisco office. If you want access
prior to that time you will need to have a host and be issued a guest badge at that site.

Should I plan to work at a Cisco office or if I work from home may I continue?
Certainly there would be some benefit to coming into a Cisco office to get to know the other personnel and you would also have
people around you who could answer questions and acquaint you with Cisco. That said Cisco has a wide variety of work options
from in office to remote. Those options will be reviewed with you and your local management teams.

What do I do if I get a call from the Press about the Acquisition or the Integration?
Our teams have worked very hard on the messaging for this acquisition and we want to be sure that that messaging is delivered in a
clear and consistent way, Therefore, if you should receive a call from the press you should not answer it. You should provide the
caller with the name our Cisco press lead Kristin Carvel or the TANDBERG press lead Jeannie McPherson.

Where can I find a list of the countries that fall within the Cisco theatres?
See a list of the countries within Cisco Theatres under the sales playbook on the CAC website.
