<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>SAN JOSE, Calif., October</B><B></B><B>&nbsp;30, 2017</B> &#150; Extreme Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ: EXTR) today announced that it has completed its
acquisition of Brocade Communications Systems, Inc.&#146;s (NASDAQ: BRCD) data center switching, routing and analytics business. Brocade&#146;s portfolio provides Extreme with an industry leading data center solution used by enterprises and service
providers, supports the company&#146;s growth strategy to lead the networking industry from the data center to the wireless edge, and secures Extreme&#146;s position as a top player in the enterprise networking market. This is the third in a series
of acquisitions announced by Extreme in the last year, including its acquisition of Zebra Technologies&#146; WLAN business and Avaya&#146;s networking business. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;This is an exciting day for Extreme as we have now significantly strengthened our position in the expanding
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">high-end</FONT> data center market with the industry leading solution for enterprise customers,&#148; said Ed Meyercord, President and CEO of Extreme Networks. &#147;Through a series of synergistic acquisitions,
Extreme is now a top player in the enterprise networking industry and expects to generate over $1&nbsp;billion in annual revenues. Today&#146;s announcement is not only a significant milestone for our growth strategy, but it also allows us to assist
more customers around the globe with <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">end-to-end</FONT></FONT> software-driven solutions to drive their digital transformation initiatives.&#148; </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">With the close of this acquisition, Extreme acquires customer relationships, personnel and technology assets from Brocade including the SLX, VDX, MLX, CES,
CER, Workflow Composer, Automation Suites, and certain other data center related products. The acquisition enhances Extreme&#146;s data center solutions used by enterprises and service providers across industries such as education, hospitality,
healthcare, retail, transportation and logistics, manufacturing and government. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;Our strategic vision has been closely aligned with Extreme
Networks&#146; vision throughout this process,&#148; said Nabil Bukhari, Vice President, Data Center, formerly of Brocade and now with Extreme Networks. &#147;Extreme&#146;s commitment to build on the innovation and momentum that we have achieved,
including a completely refreshed data center portfolio over the past year, will provide our new and existing customers and partners with business continuity that enables them to accelerate digital transformation.&nbsp;Extreme and Brocade are excited
to work closely together through the integration process to ensure a smooth transition and our world-class data center team is excited to have joined the Extreme family.&#148;</P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Extreme continues to anticipate the transaction will be accretive to cash flow and earnings for its fiscal year 2018, which began on July&nbsp;1, and expects
to generate over $230&nbsp;million in annualized revenue from the acquired assets. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Additional Resources </B></P>
