What are the terms of the deal? What do SonicWALL’s shareholders gain from this?

Under the terms of the agreement, SonicWALL shareholders will receive $11.50 in cash for each share of SonicWALL common stock, representing a premium of approximately 28% over SonicWALL’s most recent closing price.

What happens next?

We are at the beginning of a process. In order to become final, SonicWALL’s shareholders must approve the transaction at a special meeting of the shareholders. In the coming weeks, SonicWALL will file a proxy statement relating to the special meeting with the SEC. This proxy statement will contain information about the transaction and, once final, will be mailed to SonicWALL’s shareholders. Shareholders will then vote on the transaction. If the merger agreement is approved by our shareholders at the special meeting, and all of the other closing conditions are met, the transaction will be consummated. Between now and closing, we will operate the business as usual and as a publicly-traded company.

Are we still going to be SonicWALL going forward? What does this mean for everyone on a day-to-day basis?

This is simply a change in ownership — Thoma Bravo will own SonicWALL through their holding company instead of the many public shareholders we have today. Thoma Bravo is a private equity firm not a strategic buyer. Therefore, we are not being integrated into a new business with its own stand-alone operations, we are simply changing ownership.

How and when will the merger be complete?

There are a number of preconditions that must be satisfied prior to completion, such as shareholder approval. Until the required regulatory and shareholder approvals are obtained and the transaction closes, Thoma Bravo and SonicWALL will work together to the extent permitted under applicable law.

Will all SonicWALL employees keep their jobs? Will their jobs change? Will they report to different people?

At this point, it would be premature to enact changes to employment or organizational structure given the transaction has not closed. As always, irrespective of this transaction, we remain focused as a company on continuous improvement and operational efficiency, which have been the hallmarks of SonicWALL in the past and will continue to be so in the future. Our goal is to improve our ability to be more competitive and supportive of our customers while growing our revenues. It is important once again to be reminded that we are not being integrated into a new business, we are changing our ownership.

What will happen to the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”)?

All ESPP deductions from February 1 to the plan’s termination date on June 14, 2010 will be used to purchase SonicWALL shares.

10.

How will my vested and unvested outstanding stock options be treated?

All stock options outstanding at the closing of the acquisition, whether vested or unvested, will be exchanged for a payment per share equal to the positive difference between the purchase price of $11.50 per share and the exercise price per share. This payment, less any applicable withholding taxes, will be made shortly after the closing date. Please note, you will not be able to sell options or shares of SonicWALL common stock until the closing of the merger.

11.

Can I buy SonicWALL stock before the transaction closes?

No employee should buy or sell SonicWALL stock.

12.

Will there be changes to the current SonicWALL benefits and compensation programs?

We do not expect major changes to the SonicWALL benefits and compensation plan as a result of this transaction. In fact, we are continuing with our focal process which determines the merit increases for individuals.

13.

Will there be any changes to the SonicWALL offices?

No changes are planned at this time.

14.

Is there any provision in the deal to keep SonicWALL’s top executives in place for a period of time?

There are limitations on what can and what cannot be agreed upon by the parties at this point in the process. It would be inappropriate to have such a provision at this time. .We do not contemplate major changes to our organizational structure as a result of this transaction.

15.

How does this deal benefit SonicWALL and our customers?

This transaction will better position SonicWALL to continue our role as the leading company for IT security and data backup and recovery solutions. The transaction assures our independence and provides continuity of contact for our customers, partners and vendors. The new ownership structure may also remove expense attributable to being a public company and allow us to continue to build upon our technology and product offerings which will enable us to better serve our customers around the world.

16.

How does SonicWALL fit in with Thoma Bravo’s portfolio?

Thoma Bravo has a history of growing revenue and increasing the profitability of its portfolio companies through organic growth and consolidation. Thoma Bravo’s strategy in the software industry is centered on their “buy and build” approach. They only partner with companies that have the vision to be leading consolidators in their industries. They believe that SonicWALL is exactly that for the IT security and data backup and recovery solution technology space. Each of their software portfolio companies operates independently, and works in close partnership with Thoma Bravo to enhance organic growth and implement an acquisition strategy.

17.

How should employees handle calls/questions from the media (newspapers, television, radio, etc.) regarding the merger?
