Explanation of Responses:
(1)	On May 13, 2022, Project RB Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Merger Sub") and a wholly owned subsidiary of Bottomline Intermediate Holdings III, LLC (formerly known as Project RB Parent, LLC), a Delaware limited liability company ("Parent"), completed its merger (the "Merger") with and into Bottomline Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated December 16, 2021, by and among Parent, Merger Sub and the Company. The Company was the surviving corporation in the Merger and, as a result, is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. Parent and Merger Sub are affiliates of Thoma Bravo Fund XV, L.P., managed by Thoma Bravo, L.P. As of the effective time of the Merger, each share of common stock of the Company outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger was converted into the right to receive $57.00 in cash, subject to applicable withholding taxes.
(2)	This Form 4 is filed by Clearfield Capital Management LP ("Clearfield") and Philip J. Hilal ("Mr. Hilal") with respect to the securities previously held by a certain fund or funds to which Clearfield serves as investment manager. Mr. Hilal is the Chief Investment Officer of Clearfield and the managing member of Clearfield Capital Management GP LLC, the general partner of Clearfield.
(3)	The cash-settled forward agreement settled pursuant to its terms at a settlement price of $57.00.

Remarks: Clearfield may have been deemed to be a director by deputization for purposes of Section 16 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, by virtue of the fact that Mr. Hilal, who indirectly controls Clearfield, previously served on the board of directors of the Issuer. Following consummation of the Merger, Mr. Hilal no longer serves on the board of directors of the Issuer.
