Acquisition of Decru</B>
</FONT>

<P align="left" style="font-size: 14pt"><B>NetApp&#174; Disk Systems and Decru Encryption a Powerful Combination</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 14pt"><FONT style="font-size: 12pt"><B>Sunnyvale, CA &#150; August&nbsp;29, 2005 &#150; </B>Network Appliance, Inc. (NASDAQ:NTAP), the leader in
advanced networked storage solutions, today announced that is has completed the acquisition of
Decru, a privately held company based in Redwood City, California. Under the terms of the
definitive agreement announced June&nbsp;16, 2005, Network Appliance acquired Decru for approximately
$260&nbsp;million in cash and stock<sup>1</sup>. Decru is a clear market leader in storage security,
helping enterprise and government customers address requirements including regulatory compliance,
privacy, secure consolidation, and outsourcing. Decru DataFort&#153; appliances protect the core of the
storage network by seamlessly inserting a layer of data encryption, authentication, key management,
and compartmentalization. Decru products and solutions are immediately available from NetApp.
</FONT>

<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt">&#147;Our enterprise customers, particularly those in government, financial services, and
telecommunication markets, are extremely focused on data protection and security. Data theft and
corruption have made a tremendous impact on businesses and consumers; as a result, information risk
management has emerged as a top priority at the executive level,&#148; said Dan Warmenhoven, CEO of
Network Appliance. &#147;With the acquisition of Decru, NetApp is in a unique position to help customers
address these risks with leading products that deliver simplicity, flexibility, and performance. As
partners, NetApp and Decru have already built a successful track record of solving tough customer
problems &#150; as a combined team, I&#146;m confident we can help a much broader set of customers address
these challenges head on.&#148;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt">As Warmenhoven continued, &#147;We want to reiterate to our customers and the industry that Decru will
continue to work closely with the major storage and networking vendors. Our intent is to operate
Decru as a separate business unit so it can collaborate with a broad range of partners on a
business and technical level, while maintaining the confidentiality of their data and intellectual
property. Our customers need security solutions to integrate seamlessly across heterogeneous
environments, and Decru is the industry&#146;s only unified storage security platform that can deliver
on this requirement.&#148;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt">Additional details on the NetApp acquisition of Decru can be found in the initial acquisition press
release from June&nbsp;16 available online at
<U>http://www.netapp.com/news/press/news_rel_20050616</U>.
