Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

  Article Nine of the registrant's Certificate of Incorporation (Exhibit 3.1
hereto) and Article VI of the Registrant's Bylaws (Exhibit 3.2 hereto) provide
for mandatory indemnification of its directors and officers, and permissible
indemnification of employees and other agents, to the maximum extent permitted
by the Delaware General Corporation Law. In addition, the registrant has
entered into Indemnification Agreements (Exhibit 10.1 hereto) with its
officers and directors.

Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

  From the registrant's inception through July 1, 1999, the registrant has had
issued and sold the following securities:

  (a) On December 31, 1996, we issued and sold 19,000,000 shares of our
      common stock and 20,000,000 shares of our Series A preferred stock to
      Reuters Nederland B.V. in connection with the establishment by Reuters
      of TIBCO Software Inc. as a separate entity from TIBCO Inc. The
      consideration for the issuance of the shares consisted of $10,000,000
      plus the book value of the assets transferred to us less the book value
      of the assumed liabilities.

  (b) On May 9, 1997, we issued and sold 4,365,000 shares of our Series B
      preferred stock to Cisco Systems, Inc. for a purchase price of
      approximately $15,714,000.

  (c) On December 31, 1997, we issued and sold 2,861,316 shares of Series C
      preferred stock to entities affiliated with Mayfield Fund LLP for a
      purchase price of approximately $11,045,000.

  (d) As of March 31, 1999, an aggregate of 4,016,191 shares of common stock
      had been issued upon exercise of options under our Stock Option Plan.

  (e) On June 1, 1999, we granted to Reuters an option purchase 150,000
      shares of our common stock under our Director Stock Option Plan. This
      option vested immediately upon grant, has an exercise price of $6.00
      per share and may be transferred by Reuters to the Reuters-nominated
      directors.

                                     II-1

  The issuances of the securities described in (a), (b) and (c) above were
deemed to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, in reliance on Section 4(2) of the Securities Act as transactions by
an issuer not involving any public offering. The issuances of the securities
described in (d) and (e) above were deemed to be exempt from registration
under the Securities Act in reliance on Rule 701 under the Securities Act as
transactions by an issuer in compensatory circumstances. All of the securities
were acquired by the recipients for investment and with no view toward the
resale or distribution thereof. In each instance, the recipients were
sophisticated investors or employees of ours, the offer and sales were made
without any public solicitation and the stock certificates bear restrictive
legends. No underwriter was involved in the transactions and no commissions
were paid. All recipients had adequate access, through their relationships
with the registrant, to information about the registrant.

Item 17. Undertakings

  The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to file, during any period in
which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this
registration statement:

    (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
  Securities Act of 1933;

    (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the
  effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-
  effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate,
  represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this
  registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
  decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of
  securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any
  deviation from the low or high and of the estimated maximum offering price
  may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission
  pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and
  price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate
  offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in
  the effective registration statement; and

    (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
  distribution not previously disclosed in this registration statement or any
  material change to such information in this registration statement;

  (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide offering thereof.

  (3) To remove from registration be means of a post-effective amendment any
of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of
the offering.

  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the registrant, the registrant has had been advised that in the
opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities
being registered hereunder, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its
counsel the matter has had been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a
court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by
it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

     RE:  REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM S-1

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     We have examined the Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed by you with
the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 22, 1999 (Registration No. 333-
83491), including all amendments thereto through the date hereof (the
"Registration Statement"), in connection with the registration under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of 6,750,000 shares of your issued and
outstanding Common Stock (the "Shares").  We understand that you have previously
issued and sold the Shares to Reuters Nederland B.V. ("Reuters") and that
Reuters has sold or will sell the Shares to TIBCO Finance Technology, Inc. as
described in the Registration Statement.  As your legal counsel, we have
examined the proceedings taken, and are familiar with the proceedings proposed
to be taken, by you in connection with the issuance and sale of the Shares.

     It is our opinion that, as your legal counsel, the Shares have been legally
issued and fully paid and are non-assessable.

     We consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement and further consent to the use of our name wherever appearing in the
Registration Statement, including the Prospectus constituting a part thereof,
and any amendments thereto.


                              Very truly yours,

                              /s/ WILSON SONSINI GOODRICH & ROSATI
