MICRON TECHNOLOGY, INC., TO ACQUIRE LEXAR MEDIA, INC.

BOISE, Idaho, and FREMONT, Calif., March 8, 2006 – Micron Technology, Inc., (NYSE: MU) and Lexar Media, Inc., (Nasdaq: LEXR)  today announced that they have entered into a definitive agreement for Micron to acquire Lexar in a stock-for-stock merger. Under terms of the agreement, each outstanding common share of Lexar will receive 0.5625 shares of Micron stock. Micron anticipates issuing shares in exchange for 81.6 million Lexar shares outstanding. Additional Micron shares will be issued upon the exercise of assumed stock options.

The acquisition will strengthen Micron’s position in the NAND flash business and enable the company to deliver innovative NAND flash solutions from design, development and manufacturing to marketing and sales of products to worldwide consumers and device manufacturers. The merger is designed to combine Micron’s technology and manufacturing leadership in NAND flash memory with Lexar’s leadership in NAND controller and system design technology, brand recognition and retail channel strength to create a vertically integrated entity fully focused on the NAND business.

“With this acquisition, Micron will have a complete package of NAND memory solutions for our customers,” said Steve Appleton, Micron chairman, CEO and president. “Together with our NAND designs, technology, manufacturing capability and distribution channels, Micron is in a strong position to serve the flash storage requirements of consumer electronics and enterprise customers.”

“Through this acquisition, we expect to better align Lexar’s cost structure with market conditions and increase our development and go-to-market scale in order to compete more effectively in the marketplace,” said Eric Stang, Lexar chairman, CEO and president. “By merging with Micron, Lexar can achieve significant cost synergies and become better positioned to satisfy customer needs and establish faster growth, especially in new emerging mobile handset and solid-state

computing businesses. We view this as an exciting opportunity for our company and its shareholders.”

The transaction is subject to regulatory review, Lexar stockholder approval and other customary closing conditions. Completion of the merger is expected by the end of the third calendar quarter. Upon closing, Lexar, as a continuing entity, will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Micron, and Lexar’s stock will cease trading on the NASDAQ stock market.

Lexar is a leading marketer and manufacturer of NAND flash memory products including memory cards, USB flash drives, card readers and ATA controller technology for the digital photography, consumer electronics, industrial and communications markets. The company holds over 94 issued or allowed controller and system patents, and licenses its technology to companies including Olympus Corporation, Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., SanDisk Corporation and Sony Corporation. Lexar sells its memory cards worldwide and through an exclusive agreement, also sells memory cards under the Kodak brand. Headquartered in Fremont, Calif., Lexar has operations in countries around the world. More information is available at www.lexar.com.

Lexar Acquisition

Micron All Employee Email

In my last update, I referenced the many positive changes we are experiencing as Micron evolves. Today I have another milestone to report as we continue to increase the value of the company by furthering the success of our product diversification efforts and our competitiveness in the global marketplace.

We are acquiring a leading flash memory provider, Lexar, in a stock-for-stock merger. Lexar supplies award-winning removable flash memory cards, USB flash drives, card readers and controller technology solutions for the consumer electronics market. Lexar also has healthy OEM partnerships and a strong presence in the retail channel. With this acquisition, Micron gains a complete package of NAND memory solutions for our customers, and we are better able to meet the flash storage requirements of consumer electronics and enterprise customers.

When we entered the NAND business, we recognized that we needed a full suite of capabilities to be competitive, grow our position and provide high-value, innovative products.

In only 18 months, we leveraged our DRAM technology to rapidly build a position in the NAND business. Through the partnership with Intel and recent creation of IM Flash Technologies, we laid the foundation to bring critical mass and scale to our NAND manufacturing.

Our acquisition of Lexar rounds out our capabilities and brings together two great NAND innovators with complementary strengths. We’ll have a complete package of NAND memory solutions to provide to our customers and a robust retail channel that adds to our OEM channel and our direct channel with Crucial Technology.

The acquisition still needs to go through customary closing conditions that we expect to be completed by the end of the third calendar quarter, but this is an exciting development for Micron as we work to increase the value of our company and take leadership strides in key areas like NAND. As the Lexar employees join us in the coming months, please welcome them to the Micron team.
