(a-c) This statement is being filed by Amerindo Investment Advisors Inc., a
California corporation whose principal executive offices are located at One
Embarcadero Center, Suite 2300, San Francisco, California, 94111 ("Amerindo"),
Amerindo Investment Advisors, Inc., a Panama corporation, whose principal
executive offices are located at Edificio Sucre, Calle 48 Este, Bella Vista,
Apartado 6277, Panama 5, Panama ("Amerindo Panama"), the Amerindo Investment
Advisors Inc. Profit Sharing Trust, whose address is 2655 Le Jeune Road, Coral
Gables, Florida 33134 (the "Plan"), the Amerindo Advisors (UK) Limited
Retirement Benefits Scheme, whose address is 43 Grosvenor Street, London WIX
9PG England (the "Retirement Benefits Scheme"), Alberto W. Vilar, Gary A.
Tanaka, James P.F. Stableford and Renata Le Port (sometimes hereinafter
collectively referred to as the "Reporting Persons"). Although this statement
is being made jointly by the Reporting Persons, each of them expressly
disaffirms membership in any group under Rule 13d-5 under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise. Amerindo
and Amerindo Panama are sometimes hereinafter collectively referred to as the
"Advisor Entities."
Each of the Advisor Entities is an investment advisor, and all of the
subject securities have been purchased by the Advisor Entities (or, in the case
of securities held, by the Plan and the Retirement Benefits Scheme) in the
ordinary course of their respective businesses as investment advisors and not
with the purpose of effecting change or influencing the control of the issuer
or in connection with or as a participant in any transaction having such
purpose or effect, including any transaction subject to Rule 13d-3(b) under the
Exchange Act. Amerindo is registered as an investment advisor under the
Investment Advisors Act of 1940, as amended. Messrs. Vilar and Tanaka are the
sole shareholders and directors of each of the Advisor Entities. Mr. Vilar is
sole trustee of the Plan, and Messrs. Alberto W. Vilar, Gary A. Tanaka, James
P.F. Stableford and Ms. Renata Le Port are joint trustees of the Retirement
Benefits Scheme (which are qualified employee benefit plans). Because each of
the Advisor Entities is obligated to act in the best interests of its
respective clients and in accordance with the respective mandates of those
clients, and because the trustee of the Plan and the trustees of the Retirement
Benefits Scheme are required to act in the best interest of the beneficiaries
thereof, there is no agreement between or among any of the Reporting Persons to
act together with respect to the issuer or its securities, except that they
may, from time to time and provided that transactions are otherwise being
effected at the same time, aggregate orders for client accounts in order to
receive more favorable trading terms.
(d-e) This statement is being filed as to the Common Stock of
Vantive Corp., Cusip Number 922091103.

for the Plan the aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer
beneficially owned by such person as of December 11, 1998, and the percentage
which such shares constitute of the total number of shares outstanding, as
reflected on the Issuer's Form 10Q for the Quarter ended September 30, 1998
(with beneficial ownership determined as set forth in Rule 13d-3 under the
Exchange Act, but with beneficial ownership being expressly disclaimed). Messrs.
Vilar and Tanaka, as the sole shareholders and directors of the Advisor
Entities, share with each other investment and dispositive power as to all
of the shares shown as owned by the Advisor Entities, who otherwise have sole
investment and dispositive power with respect thereto, except that each client
of the Advisor Entities has the unilateral right to terminate the advisory
agreement with the Advisor Entity in question on notice which typically need
not exceed 30 days. Mr. Vilar is sole trustee of the Plan, and Messrs. Alberto
W. Vilar, Gary A. Tanaka, James P.F. Stableford and Ms. Renata Le Port are
joint trustees of the Retirement Benefits Scheme.
