Nasdaq Grants Rambus Additional Filing Extension

The extension was granted based on Rambus’ requests to the Listings Qualification Panel of the NASDAQ Stock Market on September 21, 2006 and November 17, 2006. On November 15, 2006, Rambus received a NASDAQ staff determination letter resulting from the delay in the Company’s filing of its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, indicating that the Company failed to comply with the filing requirements for continued listing set forth in Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14), and that its securities are, therefore, subject to delisting from the Nasdaq Global Select Market. Rambus had previously received a NASDAQ staff determination letter resulting from the delay in the Company’s filing of its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 indicating that the Company failed to comply with the filing requirements for continued listing. 

As previously announced, the Audit Committee of the Rambus Board of Directors is currently conducting an independent investigation to review the Company’s historical stock option granting practices and related accounting. The Company has previously disclosed that it would not be able to file its Form 10-Q for the period ending September 30, 2006 on time while the investigation is ongoing. The Audit Committee is making every effort to complete its investigation, and the Company will make every effort to file its restated financial reports as soon as practicable after the completion of the investigation.
