NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. & REDWOOD SHORES, Calif., — June 27, 2000 — Sierra Imaging, a wholly owned subsidiary of Conexant Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: CNXT), developer of the Image Expert series of feature-rich image management software for digital cameras; and Shutterfly, the leading online photo service chaired by Jim Clark, founder of Silicon Graphics and Netscape Communications, today announced a new way for Shutterfly customers to easily transfer their digital pictures to the Shutterfly website.

Shutterfly will now offer a special edition of Sierra’s Image Expert software customized for use by Shutterfly customers. The software will display digital images on a user’s PC by instantly showing recognizable thumbnails rather than the often hard-to-identify numbers or file names assigned by the user’s digital camera or computer system. Users can simply click on the images they want uploaded to www.shutterfly.com, eliminating the tedious process of opening files to determine which images lie behind a file name like “P0000530.JPG” or “05090001.JPG.” Multiple images can be selected before hitting the upload button for maximum efficiency.

“This agreement with Shutterfly is part of a broader initiative we are mounting to help online photo services expand their customer base,” said Kevin Strong, senior vice president and general manager of Conexant’s Personal Imaging Division. “The acquistion of Sierra Imaging closed earlier this month and this now gives us the opportunity to further extend our image management software to the online arena, and it gives online services a new way to grow the digital imaging market by making it easier for people to get prints. If you can’t find a digital image, you can’t use it, and our software helps solve that problem.”

According to Lyra Research, a leading digital imaging research organization, an estimated 192 million digital camera exposures will be uploaded worldwide in the year 2000. This number will jump to 1.5 billion exposures in the year 2002.* There is no doubt that the number of digital images being uploaded to the Internet is exploding. Shutterfly, Conexant and Sierra Imaging are committed to making it simple and convenient for users to transfer images to www.shutterfly.com.

“We are extremely pleased to be working with Conexant and Sierra Imaging to offer this new value-added feature on the Shutterfly site,” said Jayne Spiegelman, CEO of Shutterfly. “We want to make it easy for consumers to manage their digital images and then transfer them to the Shutterfly, and this new alliance is a great leap forward in helping us meet that objective.”
