You would have to do it manually; you can put marks and text anywhere
you want in a matplotlib figure, but there is no mechanism for adding
ticks to the extensions. That's simply not what they are for. They are
intended only to indicate a single color to which values outside the
vmin-to-vmax range of the norm are assigned.

It looks like you might be able to achieve what you want *without* using
extensions, by using a custom colormap and/or norm. You would extend
the actual contour levels to include the full range you want "ticked and
labeled", but you would use the colormap and/or norm to ensure those
beyond a given range are mapped to the appropriate end color(s).
