On April 19, 2012, Procera Networks, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated, as representative of the several underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”) relating to the offering, issuance and sale by the Company (the “Offering”) of 4,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share. The price to the public in the Offering is $21.00 per share, and the Underwriters have agreed to purchase the shares of common stock from the Company pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement at a price of $19.74 per share. The net proceeds to the Company from the Offering are expected to be approximately $88.0 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. The Offering is expected to close on or about April 25, 2012, subject to customary closing conditions. The shares of common stock will be listed on the NASDAQ Global Market. The Underwriters have a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 675,000 shares of common stock. All of the shares in the Offering are being sold by the Company.

The Offering is being made pursuant to the Company’s effective shelf registration statements on Form S-3 (Registration Nos. 333-180141 and 333-180836) previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and the Underwriters, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Underwriting Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties. Subject to certain exceptions, the Company and all of the Company’s directors and executive officers also agreed to not sell or transfer any common stock of the Company for 90 days after April 19, 2012 without first obtaining the consent of Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated.
