This Amendment No. 8 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (together with any subsequent amendments and supplements thereto, the “Schedule TO”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 3, 2014 by Rocket Acquisition Corporation, a Maryland corporation (“Purchaser”), a subsidiary of OC Acquisition LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Parent”), which is a subsidiary of Oracle Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Oracle”). The Schedule TO relates to the offer by Purchaser to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value, $0.025 per share (the “Shares”), of MICROS Systems, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), at a purchase price of $68.00 per Share net to the seller in cash, without interest thereon and subject to any required tax withholding, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated July 3, 2014 (the “Offer to Purchase”) and in the related Letter of Transmittal (which, together with the Offer to Purchase, as they may be amended or supplemented from time to time, collectively constitute the “Offer”), copies of which are attached to the Schedule TO as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B), respectively.

Except as otherwise set forth in this Amendment, the information set forth in the Schedule TO remains unchanged and is incorporated herein by reference to the extent relevant to the items in this Amendment. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule TO.

Items 1 through 9 and Item 11.

Items 1 through 9 and Item 11 are hereby amended and supplemented to include the following:

“The subsequent offering period for the Offer expired as scheduled at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on September 5, 2014. The subsequent offering period was not extended. American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, the depositary for the Offer, has advised that, as of the expiration time, a total of 2,794,997 Shares were validly tendered during the subsequent offering period and approximately 62,093,103 Shares were validly tendered during the initial offering period, representing a total of approximately 86.6 % of the Shares outstanding. Purchaser has accepted for payment all Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn during the initial offering period and all shares validly tendered during the subsequent offering period.

In addition, the Depositary has advised that, as of the expiration of the subsequent offering period, 1,741,683 Shares have been tendered by Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, which, together with the Shares tendered as of the expiration of the subsequent offering period, represent approximately 88.9% of the aggregate number of then issued and outstanding Shares.

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Parent has advised the Company that it intends to consummate the Merger following the expiration of the subsequent offering period. The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that, subject to certain conditions, Purchaser will be merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the Surviving Corporation, wholly owned by Parent. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each Share outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than treasury shares, or shares held by Oracle, Parent, Purchaser or any of their wholly-owned subsidiaries) will be converted into, and cancelled in exchange for, the right to receive $68.00 net in cash, without interest thereon and subject to any required tax withholding, which is the same amount per Share that was paid in the Offer. Following the Merger, the Company will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, and the Shares will no longer be listed on The NASDAQ Global Market.”
