CommVault Names New North American Channel Chief

— With 25 Years of Industry Experience, Mark Conley Joins CommVault Focused on Enhancing Partner Communication, Education and Revenue Opportunities —

CommVault (NASDAQ: CVLT), OCEANPORT, N.J. — September 10, 2008

• As part of CommVault's stated corporate objective to move an increasingly higher percentage of its revenue through its North American channel, CommVault is committing more resources in order to enable its channel partners to be more effective. To help lead this effort, Mark Conley has joined CommVault as the company's new director of North American channel sales reporting to Ron Miiller, CommVault's vice president of sales, Americas.
• In his new role, Conley will work with CommVault's executive sales organization in the design, implementation and management of CommVault's indirect North American sales channel. Conley's priorities will center on increasing partner revenue and margin opportunities, improving partner motivation and education, as well as enhancing communications with partners. Conley will also focus on expanding CommVault's current channel business relationships, while re-architecting CommVault's Channel Partner programs to improve partner adoption of CommVault® Simpana® software solutions to drive additional revenue.
• The move is part of CommVault's overall strategy to capitalize on its market recognition and become more relevant to its channel partners while expanding its routes-to-market during the current fiscal year—an initiative that has included increased activity with its US distribution partner, Alternative Technology, Inc. and increased field headcount dedicated to partner engagement. Alternative Technology is a wholly owned subsidiary of Arrow Enterprise Computing Solutions, which is a business segment of Arrow Electronics, Inc. (NYSE: ARW). As CommVault looks to expand its market footprint, the indirect sales channel, which currently represents 84 percent of revenues worldwide, has become increasingly more important to its business.
• Conley has more than 25 years of experience in high technology channel sales, most recently in positions at Polycom and Sun Microsystems. Conley began his career leading district sales organizations for Novell in Chicago, Minneapolis and Detroit before assuming the position of vice president in charge of the United States Automotive Practice and Michigan International Business School for Cap Gemini.
