     These proxy solicitation materials were mailed on or about November 6, 2000
to all stockholders entitled to vote at the Special Meeting.

                 INFORMATION CONCERNING SOLICITATION AND VOTING

PURPOSES OF THE SPECIAL MEETING

     The purposes of the Special Meeting are:

     - to approve the amendment and restatement of the Company's Certificate of
       Incorporation for the purpose of increasing the number of authorized
       shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value, of the Company from
       100,000,000 to 500,000,000 shares and increasing the number of authorized
       shares of preferred stock, $0.0001 par value, of the Company from
       5,000,000 to 25,000,000 shares; and

     - to transact such other business as may properly come before the meeting
       or any adjournment thereof.

RECORD DATE AND SHARES OUTSTANDING

     Stockholders of record at the close of business on October 20, 2000 (the
"Record Date") are entitled to notice of, and to vote at the Special Meeting. As
of October 11, 2000, 45,549,017 shares of E.piphany's Common Stock were issued
and outstanding. The closing price of E.piphany's Common Stock on The Nasdaq
Stock Market on the last trading day immediately prior to October 11, 2000 was
$60.25 per share.

REVOCABILITY OF PROXIES

     Any proxy given pursuant to this solicitation may be revoked by the person
giving it at any time before its use by delivering to the Secretary of E.piphany
a written notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date or
by attending the Special Meeting and voting in person. Attending the Special
Meeting in and of itself will not constitute a revocation of proxy.

VOTING AND SOLICITATION

     Each share of Common Stock outstanding on the Record Date will be entitled
to one vote on all matters. The increase in the number of authorized shares of
common stock and preferred stock will require the affirmative vote of a majority
of the shares of E.piphany's outstanding Common Stock present or represented at
the Special Meeting.

     Shares of Common Stock represented by properly executed proxies will,
unless such proxies have been previously revoked, be voted in accordance with
the instructions indicated thereon. In the absence of specific instructions,
properly executed proxies will be voted:

     - FOR approval of the amendment and restatement of the Company's
       Certificate of Incorporation for the purpose of increasing the number of
       authorized shares of common stock and preferred stock.

     No business other than that set forth in the accompanying Notice of Special
Meeting of Stockholders is expected to come before the Special Meeting. Should
any other matter requiring a vote of stockholders

                                        1
<PAGE>   4

properly arise, the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy will vote such
proxy as the Board of Directors may recommend.

     The cost of this solicitation will be borne by E.piphany. E.piphany may
reimburse brokerage firms and other persons representing beneficial owners of
shares for their expenses in forwarding solicitation material to such beneficial
owners. Proxies may also be solicited by certain of E.piphany's directors,
officers and regular employees, without additional compensation other than
reimbursement of expenses, personally or by telephone, telegram or letter.

QUORUM; ABSTENTIONS; BROKER NON-VOTES

     The required quorum for the transaction of business at the Special Meeting
is a majority of the shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Record Date.
Shares that are voted "FOR" or "AGAINST" a matter are treated as being present
at the Special Meeting for purposes of establishing a quorum and are also
treated as shares "represented and voting" at the Special Meeting (the "Votes
Cast") with respect to such matter.

     Under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, an abstaining
vote and a broker non-vote are counted present and entitled to vote and are,
therefore, included for purposes of determining whether a quorum of shares is
present at a meeting; however, such votes are not deemed to be Votes Cast. As a
result, abstentions and broker non-votes are not included in the tabulation of
the voting results on the election of directors or issues requiring approval of
a majority of the Votes Cast and, therefore, do not have the effect of votes in
opposition in such tabulations. A broker non-vote occurs when a nominee holding
shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the
nominee does not have discretionary voting power with respect to that item and
has not received instructions from the beneficial owner.

DEADLINE FOR RECEIPT OF STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS

     Proposals of E.piphany's stockholders that are intended to be presented by
such stockholders at E.piphany's next Annual Meeting of stockholders must be
received by E.piphany at its principal executive offices, no later than December
26, 2000 in order to be considered for possible inclusion in the Proxy Statement
and form of Proxy relating to such meeting.

     If you intend to present a proposal at E.piphany's Annual Meeting of
stockholders to be held in 2001, but you do not intend to have it included in
our 2001 Proxy Statement, you must deliver a copy of your proposal to
E.piphany's General Counsel at our principal executive office listed above no
later than March 2, 2001 and no earlier than January 31, 2001.

                                 PROPOSAL NO. 1

             APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION

     Under the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation
currently in effect, there are 100,000,000 shares of common stock and 5,000,000
shares of preferred stock authorized for issuance. As of October 11, 2000, there
were 45,549,017 shares of common stock outstanding and no shares of preferred
stock outstanding. On September 12, 2000, the Company's board of directors
approved an amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation
subject to stockholder approval, to increase: (i) the shares of common stock
authorized for issuance by 400,000,000 shares, bringing the total number of
common shares authorized for issuance to 500,000,000, and (ii) the shares of
preferred stock authorized for issuance by 20,000,000 shares, bringing the total
number of preferred shares authorized for issuance to 25,000,000. At the special
meeting, the stockholders are asked to approve this amendment to the Amended and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation.

     The principal purpose of the proposed increase in the number of authorized
shares of common stock is to make such shares available for use by the Board of
Directors as it deems appropriate or necessary. For example, such shares may be
needed in connection with future stock dividends or stock splits, raising
additional capital through the sale of the Company's securities, providing
options or other stock incentives to the Company's employees, consultants or
others, acquisition of another company or its business or assets, or
establishing a strategic relationship with a corporate partner. The board of
directors believes that this ability to issue stock is crucial to the Company's
future success. The Board of Directors has no present agreement, arrangement,
plan or understanding with respect to the issuance of any such shares of Common
Stock.

     If the amendment is approved by the stockholders, the Board of Directors
does not intend to solicit further stockholder approval prior to the issuance of
any additional shares of Common Stock, except as may be required by applicable
law. Holders of the Company's securities as such have no statutory preemptive
rights with respect to issuances of Common Stock.

     The increase in authorized Common Stock will not have any immediate effect
on the rights of existing stockholders. To the extent that the additional
authorized shares are issued in the future, they will decrease the existing
stockholders' percentage equity ownership and, depending on the price at which
they are issued, could be dilutive to the existing stockholders.

POTENTIAL ANTI-TAKEOVER EFFECT

     The increase in the authorized number of shares of Common Stock and
Preferred Stock and the subsequent issuance of such shares could have the effect
of delaying or preventing a change-in-control of the Company without further
action by the stockholders. Shares of authorized and unissued Common Stock and
Preferred Stock could (within the limits imposed by applicable law) be issued in
one or more transactions that would make a change-in-control of the Company more
difficult, and therefore less likely. Any such issuance of additional stock
could have the effect of diluting the earnings per share and book value per
share of outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock, and such additional
shares could be used to dilute the stock ownership or voting rights of a person
seeking to obtain control of the Company.

     The full text of Article Fourth, as proposed to be amended, is set forth as
follows:

          "ARTICLE FOURTH: The Corporation is authorized to issue two classes of
     stock to be designated respectively Common Stock and Preferred Stock. The
     total number of shares of all classes of stock that the Corporation has
     authority to issue is Five Hundred Twenty Five Million (525,000,000),
     consisting of Five Hundred Million (500,000,000) shares of Common Stock,
     $0.0001 par value (the "Common Stock"), and Twenty Five Million
     (25,000,000) shares of Preferred Stock, $0.0001 par value (the "Preferred
     Stock").

          The Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more
     series. The Board of Directors is hereby authorized, subject to limitations
     prescribed by law, to fix by resolution or resolutions the designations,
     powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations or
     restrictions thereof, of

                                        5
<PAGE>   8

     each such series of Preferred Stock, including without limitation authority
     to fix by resolution or resolutions, the dividend rights, dividend rate,
     conversion rights, voting rights, rights and terms of redemption (including
     sinking fund provisions), redemption price or prices, and liquidation
     preferences of any wholly unissued series of Preferred Stock, and the
     number of shares constituting any such series and the designation thereof,
     or any of the foregoing.

          The Board of Directors is further authorized to increase (but not
     above the total number of authorized shares of the class) or decrease (but
     not below the number of shares of any such series then outstanding) the
     number of shares of any series, the number of which was fixed by it,
     subsequent to the issue of shares of such series then outstanding, subject
     to the powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations
     and restrictions thereof stated in the resolution of the Board of Directors
     originally fixing the number of shares of such series. If the number of
     shares of any series is so decreased then the shares constituting such
     decrease shall resume the status which they had prior to the adoption of
     the resolution originally fixing the number of shares of such series."

VOTE REQUIRED

     The approval of the amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of
Incorporation requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present
in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the proposal at the
special meeting.

RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

     THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE "FOR" THE
AMENDMENT OF THE AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO INCREASE
THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK AND PREFERRED STOCK AUTHORIZED FOR
ISSUANCE.

     As of October 11, 2000, there were 45,549,017 shares of common stock
outstanding which were held of record by approximately 714 stockholders. In
addition, as of such date, approximately 7,213,605 shares were reserved for
issuance upon exercise of outstanding options; and approximately 4,165,537
shares were reserved for future grant under the Company's 1997 Stock Plan, the
Company's 1999 Stock Plan, RightPoint 1996 Stock Option Plan, iLeverage
Corporation 1997 Stock Plan, Octane Software, Inc. 1997 Stock Option Plan,
Octane Software, Inc. Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan, Octane Software, Inc. 2000
Pennsylvania Plan, eClass Direct, Inc. 1998 Stock Plan and the Company's 1999
Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Accordingly, as of October 11, 2000, the Company
had 43,071,841 shares of authorized but unissued and unreserved common stock
available for issuance. This does not include the number of persons whose stock
is in nominee or "street name" accounts through brokers. As of the date hereof,
there are no shares of preferred stock outstanding.

     The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all
matters to be voted upon by the stockholders. Subject to preferences that may be
applicable to any outstanding preferred stock, the holders of common stock are
entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be declared from time
to time by the board of directors out of funds legally available for that
purpose. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders
of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after

payment of liabilities, subject to prior distribution rights of preferred stock,
if any, then outstanding. The holders of common stock have no preemptive or
conversion rights or other subscription rights. There are no redemption or
sinking fund provisions applicable to our common stock.

PREFERRED STOCK

     Our board of directors has the authority, without action by the
stockholders, to designate and issue preferred stock in one or more series and
to designate the rights, preferences and privileges of each series, which may be
greater than the rights of the common stock. It is not possible to state the
actual effect of the issuance of any shares of preferred stock upon the rights
of holders of our common stock until our board of directors determines the
specific rights of the holders of such preferred stock. However, the effects
might include, among other things:

     - restricting dividends on the common stock;

     - diluting the voting power of the common stock;

     - impairing the liquidation rights of the common stock; or

     - delaying or preventing a change in control without further action by the
       stockholders.

     No shares of preferred stock are outstanding and we have no present plans
to issue any shares of preferred stock.

     The information required by Schedule 14A, Item 13(a) is hereby incorporated
