On February 26, 2013, Emulex Corporation ("Emulex") declared as wholly unconditional its takeover offer to acquire Endace Limited ("Endace"), a leading supplier of network visibility infrastructure products. As a result, Emulex acquired beneficial ownership of 13,629,988 shares of Endace, representing approximately 89.55% of Endace's outstanding shares. The purchase price for such shares is GBP 5.00 per share for an aggregate of GBP 68,149,940 (US$ 107,413,766 at the reference exchange rate). The reference exchange rate of 0.6345 GBP per 1 USD is based on the actual rates obtained by Emulex for the currency conversions. Endace employee stock options were also purchased for GBP 4,555,929 (US$7,180,777 at the reference exchange rate).
Emulex also extended its offer period by 14 days (to 1:00 p.m. London time on

offer. Endace shareholders who submitted acceptances of the offer prior to 1

within seven days of February 26, 2013. Endace shareholders who submit shares
during the period from February 26 through March 12, 2013, will receive payment
within seven days of receipt of their acceptance. The purchase price per share
for such shares will be GBP 5.00. If the remaining 10.45 percent of the Endace
shares are submitted by the March 12, 2013 offer period end date, then an
additional payment of GBP 7,950,400 will be made (US$ 12,530,934 at the
reference exchange rate).
