On September 26, 2014, Aviat Networks, Inc.

The Notice states that the Company has 60 calendar days from September 26, 2014, to submit to NASDAQ a plan to regain compliance with the NASDAQ Listing Rules. The Company intends to submit a plan to regain compliance within the 60-day period. If NASDAQ accepts the Company’s plan, then NASDAQ may grant the Company up to 180 days from the prescribed due date for filing the Form 10-K to regain compliance. If NASDAQ does not accept the Company’s plan, then the Company will have the opportunity to appeal that decision to a NASDAQ Hearings Panel.
