This Amendment No. 3 to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (this “ Amendment ”) filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ SEC ”) on July 2, 2013, amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed on June 4, 2013 (as amended and supplemented from time to time, the “ Schedule TO ”), relating to the offer by Offeror (as defined below) to purchase all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (each a “ Share ” and collectively, the “ Shares ”), of SoundBite Communications, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ SoundBite ”), at a purchase price of $5.00 per Share, net to the seller in cash without interest and less taxes required to be withheld, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated June 4, 2013 (the “ Offer to Purchase ”) and the related Letter of Transmittal (the “ Letter of Transmittal ”), copies of which are attached to the Schedule TO as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B) (which, together with the Offer to Purchase, as each may be amended and supplemented from time to time, constitute the “ Offer ”). The Schedule TO (including the Offer to Purchase) filed with the SEC by Sonar Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ Offeror ”) and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Genesys Telecommunications Laboratories, Inc., a California corporation (“ Genesys ”), on June 4, 2013, as amended by this Amendment No. 3 and the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 filed with the SEC by SoundBite on June 4, 2013, as amended or supplemented from time to time, contain important information about the Offer, all of which should be read carefully by SoundBite stockholders before any decision is made with respect to the Offer. The Offer is made pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 20, 2013 (as it may be amended from time to time, the “ Merger Agreement ”), by and among SoundBite, Genesys and Offeror.

Documentation relating to the Offer has been mailed to SoundBite stockholders and may be obtained at no charge at the website maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov and may also be obtained at no charge by directing a request by mail to AST Phoenix Advisors, the Information Agent for the Offer, at 6201 15th Avenue, Brooklyn, New York 11219, or by calling toll-free at (877) 478-5038.

All information set forth in the Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal is incorporated by reference herein in response to Items 1 through 9 and Item 11 of the Schedule TO, and is supplemented by the information specifically provided in this Amendment. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Offer to Purchase or in the Schedule TO.

Items 1 through 9 and Item 11.

Items 1 through 9 and 11 of the Schedule TO are hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following text thereto:

“On July 2, 2013, Offeror successfully completed the Offer, which expired at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, at the end of the day on Monday, July 1, 2013 (the “ Expiration Time ”). The depositary for the Offer has indicated that, as of the Expiration Time, approximately 16,067,612 of the outstanding Shares had been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn in the Offer, including 112,668 Shares tendered through notices of guaranteed delivery. The Shares tendered represent approximately 97.04% of the outstanding Shares. All Shares that were validly tendered (other than Shares tendered through notices of guaranteed delivery) and not properly withdrawn in the Offer have been accepted for purchase and payment at the Offer Price, and all holders of these Shares will be paid promptly in accordance with the terms of the Offer.

As a result of the Offer, Offeror will own at least 90% of the outstanding Shares, which is sufficient to enable Offeror to effect the Merger under the “short-form” merger provisions of the DGCL, without a vote or meeting of SoundBite’s stockholders.

Offeror expects to complete the acquisition of SoundBite on July 3, 2013 through the Merger described above. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the Merger Effective Time each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time (other than Excluded Shares and Appraisal Shares) will be canceled and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, payable without interest and less applicable withholding taxes. After the Merger, SoundBite will be a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Genesys and Shares will cease to be traded on The NASDAQ Global Market.

The press release announcing the completion of the Offer is attached as Exhibit (a)(5)(E) to the Schedule TO and is incorporated by reference herein.”
