M&E Customer Challenges •! Traditional file systems cannot scale •! Simultaneous client access from Mac, Linux, and Windows clients Scalability •! Today’s all digital movies now PBs of raw footage per film •! Scaling storage disrupts workflows delaying production and increasing costs •! Performance not keeping up with rich media formats – HD, 2K/4K/8K, 3D •! Little to no storage tuning available on a per application or workflow basis Performance •! 100’s of HD streams and 1000’s of SD steams must be supported for current rich media environments Consolidation •! Workflows based on disparate storage resources and •! Complexity of storage management •! Constant file transfers increase potential for errors and lost or corrupted files Management •! Massive amounts of unnecessary storage are purchased - 50% of storage capacity is underutilized Cost •! Separate storage systems cause high management costs •! Storage tends to be “over” bought PAGE 4 FalconStor HyperFS Usage Rights US only © FalconStor Software 2010 ! All Rights Reserved

Typical M&E File System Requirements Technical Requirements •! Mechanisms for simultaneous access of files from multiple stations –! Capture and encoding stations –! Edit, color, animation, and other production stations –! Content deliver and test stations •! Support heterogeneous Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X clients with concurrent file access •! Very high read/write throughput –! IB/FC/iSCSI client links to high performance storage systems –! File system should be able to leverage the available high bandwidth data paths •! Optimal utilization of resources –! No islands of underutilized, dedicated storage while allowing clients to share the storage •! Massively Scalable Infrastructure –! Support storage in PBs (starting with TBs) •! Very simple to deploy and maintain –! Plug and play, seamless deployments with minimal training –! Single management console –! Transparently add new capacity PAGE 7 FalconStor HyperFS Usage Rights US only © FalconStor Software 2010 ! All Rights Reserved

HyperFS – Competitive Advantages •! Superior performance to the competition –! Achieves up to 90% of wire speeds –! Out performing competition by as much as 100MB/sec –! Aurora Systems up to 1.8 GB/sec each & up to 6 GB/sec aggregated under HyperFS •! Supports more streams per volume than competition –! 100’s of HD streams vs 10’s streams with competitor file system on SAME hardware •! Massive capacity scaling – up to 144PB per single file system –! Competition in a few PB range •! Comprehensive heterogeneous Mac OS X, Windows and Linux support –! Most competitors do not support Mac clients •! Strong technical support •! Software only model –! No vendor lock-in –! Partner/OEM/VAR provide full solution to end users PAGE 9 FalconStor HyperFS Usage Rights US only © FalconStor Software 2010 ! All Rights Reserved

What does this mean? •! Scalability –! Massive scalability in a single namespace message up to 144PB per file system –! One system to scale •! Performance –! Designed and tested for media-specific workflows –! Bandwidth and latency to support toughest media applications –! Storage tuned to specific workflows and applications –! Match type of storage to application needs through the use of volume groups –! Scales to meet growth in clients & capacity, and number of files PAGE 10 FalconStor HyperFS Usage Rights US only © FalconStor Software 2010 ! All Rights Reserved

What does this mean? •! Consolidation and Management –! Consolidates disparate storage resources into an easy-to-manage single storage pool •! Provides maximum storage utilization, preventing end users from over buying storage •! Transparently and non-disruptively adds new storage to the single pool –! Reduces file transfers, keeping the potential for errors, lost or corrupted files, and revisions to a minimum •! Cost –! Lowers OPEX by simplifying content management to single system/ namespace –! Lowers CAPEX by centralizing content management & storage •! A “pay-as-you-grow” hardware strategy –! Supports ANY storage system •! End user can buy whichever performance is needed for each workflow and buy from any vendor PAGE 11 FalconStor HyperFS Usage Rights US only © FalconStor Software 2010 ! All Rights Reserved
