Allen & Overy Selects IntApp Wall Builder for Information Barriers, Confidentiality Management,

and Compliance

PALO ALTO, Calif.—May 4, 2010—IntApp, Inc., the leading provider of risk management software for the legal industry, today
announced that Allen & Overy, an international legal practice with approximately 2,700 lawyers and 5,000 total staff working in 34
major centres worldwide, has selected IntApp Wall Builder to enforce confidentiality policies and track compliance across the firm.

Wall Builder is a web-based confidentiality management application that enables organisations to centrally control, monitor and
report on user access permissions across multiple applications including document management, accounting, portal, CRM, time
entry and records management systems. It also automates notifications to individuals subject to specific policies and tracks
acknowledgments for compliance purposes.

“We made a strategic decision to adopt technology controls to help us manage information barrier and wider client confidentiality
issues and in particular to enhance our ability to monitor and audit compliance,” said Heather McCallum, Partner and Head of Risk
and Compliance, Allen & Overy LLP. “We selected Wall Builder because it’s a mature product that has been widely adopted by law
firms, and because IntApp possesses the necessary expertise and could demonstrate success working with large, global firms to
address information barrier and client confidentiality requirements.”

Law firms manage and track internal access to client information for many reasons. These include requirements tied to rules of
professional responsibility regarding conflicts and confidential information (SRA Rules 3 & 4), client mandates and legislation
including the EU Market Abuse and Privacy Directives.

Wall Builder replaces distributed, ad hoc approaches to information security with a centralised system that provides organisations
with unprecedented capability and control over user access to specific applications, documents and other information. It’s the only
product for law firms that delivers real-time enforcement while updating access rights in response to lawyer behaviour to ensure that
policies are kept up to date automatically.

“Given the complexity of our IT environment and demanding technology standards, prior to finalising our selection of IntApp Wall
Builder, we conducted an extensive pilot roll-out and testing process which spanned several months,” said Jason Haines, Global IT
Director, Allen & Overy, LLP. “During this process, IntApp addressed all of our concerns, demonstrating how Wall Builder will meet our
firm’s exacting technology, data integration and vendor support requirements.”

“Allen & Overy is a top global law firm with a highly-skilled and well-regarded risk management team,” said Pat Archbold, head of
IntApp's Risk Practice Group. “By adopting Wall Builder, the firm joins a growing community of law firms committed to addressing
important confidentiality and compliance requirements facing the industry.”
