PARTIAL DEREGISTRATION OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
 
These post-effective amendments relate to the following Registration Statements on Form S-8 (collectively, the “Prior Registration Statements”) of Extreme Networks, Inc. (“Extreme”):
 
File No. 333-131705, pertaining to the registration of 23,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share of Extreme (“Common Stock”), issuable under Extreme Networks, Inc. 2005 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2005 Plan”) which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and became effective on December 2, 2005; and
 
File No. 333-165268, pertaining to the registration of an additional 4,000,000 shares of common stock issuable under the 2005 Plan which was filed with the SEC and became effective on October 21, 2010.

At the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Extreme held on November 20, 2013, Extreme’s stockholders approved the Extreme Networks, Inc. 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Plan”) to replace the 2005 Plan. Effective that date, the 2005 Plan was suspended, and no additional awards will be made thereunder. Effective immediately upon the filing of these Post-Effective Amendments to the Prior Registration Statements, Extreme hereby deregisters an aggregate of 1,333,271 shares of Common Stock previously registered for offer and sale under the 2005 Plan. The deregistered shares represent shares of Common Stock remaining available for future issuance under the 2005 Plan (the “Excess Shares”). Up to an additional 11,375,882 shares subject to outstanding awards under the 2005 Plan that expire, are terminated or canceled without having been exercised or settled in full, or if shares acquired pursuant to an award subject to forfeiture or repurchase under the 2005 Plan are forfeited or repurchased by Extreme for an amount not greater than the holder’s purchase price (together with the Excess Shares, the “Carry Forward Shares”) will also be deregistered upon such forfeiture, lapse, expiration or termination. The Prior Registration Statements will remain in effect as to the 2005 Plan to cover the potential issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of the awards to which the Carry Forward Shares are subject. Under the terms of the 2013 Plan, upon the expiration, termination, cancellation, forfeiture or repurchase of the subject awards, the Carry Forward Shares will become available for issuance under the 2013 Plan, will be deregistered from the Prior Registration Statements and will be carried forward to the New Registration Statement (as defined below).
 
Contemporaneously with the filing of these Post-Effective Amendments to the Prior Registration Statements covering the 2005 Plan, Extreme is filing a new Registration Statement on Form S-8 to register 9,000,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance under the 2013 Plan, together with up to 12,709,153 Carry Forward Shares when they become eligible for issuance under the terms of the 2013 Plan as described above (the “New Registration Statement”). In accordance with Instruction E to the General Instructions to Form S-8 and the principles set forth in Interpretations 89 under Section G of the Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations of the Division of Corporate Finance of the SEC (July 1997), these Post-Effective Amendments to the Prior Registration Statements covering the 2005 Plan are hereby filed to deregister and carry forward when eligible under the terms of the 2013 Plan and the applicable award grants, the Carry Forward Shares.
