VeriSign Receives Anticipated Letter from Nasdaq

MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA, May 17, 2007 – VeriSign, Inc. (Nasdaq: VRSN) announced today that it received a Nasdaq Staff Determination letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market on May 11, 2007 stating that VeriSign is not in compliance with the filing requirements under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14) due to the delay in filing of its Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2007 (“Q1 10-Q”). As previously announced on March 1, 2007, the Nasdaq Listing and Hearings Review Council (“Listing Council”) notified the Company that the Listing Council has stayed any future determinations to suspend the Company’s securities from trading until the Nasdaq review process has been completed. The Listing Council’s decision to stay any future determinations to suspend the Company’s securities from trading until the review process has been completed also applies to the Company’s failure to timely file its Q1 10-Q. If the Listing Council determines it is appropriate, it may grant the Company additional time to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s filing requirement, until the earlier of 60 days from the date of its decision or 180 days from the date of the Panel’s decision. The Listing Council has not issued a decision in this matter as of the date of this announcement.

VeriSign has previously announced that it must restate its historical financial statements for the years 2002-2005 and for the first quarter of 2006 to record additional non-cash, stock-based compensation expense in connection with the review of historical stock option grant practices conducted by an ad hoc group of independent directors. On January 31, 2007, the Company announced that the ad hoc group of independent directors had substantially completed its review of VeriSign’s historical stock option grants. On May 10, 2007, VeriSign filed a notice with the SEC disclosing that it would be unable to timely file its Q1 10-Q because it had not completed the audit of its restatement, that it intends to file the Q1 10-Q as promptly as practicable after completion of the restatement audit, and that it does not expect that such filing will be made by May 15, 2007, the extended deadline.
