TWO LEADING INDEPENDENT PROXY ADVISORY FIRMS

December 5, 2022

Dear RealNetworks, Inc. Shareholder:

We want to share with you some important late-breaking news. The nation’s two leading independent voting advisory services, Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS) and Glass Lewis & Co., whose clients include institutional investors, mutual funds, pension funds and others, have both recommended that shareholders vote FOR the acquisition of the company by Greater Heights LLC and for the other items on the enclosed proxy card.

TIME IS SHORT. The special meeting of shareholders of RealNetworks, Inc. – to be held on December 14, 2022—is just days away. It is not too late for you to protect the value of your investment by voting FOR the transaction.

PLEASE VOTE BY TELEPHONE OR VIA THE INTERNET. Please follow the instructions on the enclosed proxy card to vote FOR each of the proposals TODAY.

Thank you again for your support.

Very truly yours,

The Board of Directors
