Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

On July 10, 2018, Oclaro, Inc. (“Oclaro”) convened a Special Meeting of Stockholders (the “Special Meeting”). On May 15, 2018, the record date for the Special Meeting, there were 170,656,367 shares of Oclaro common stock issued and outstanding. A quorum was present at the Special Meeting. At the Special Meeting, Oclaro’s stockholders voted on the following proposals:

 

  1. Merger Proposal . A proposal (the “Merger Proposal”) to adopt the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 11, 2018, among Lumentum Holdings Inc. (“Lumentum”), Oclaro, Prota Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), and Prota Merger, LLC (“Merger Sub LLC”), as it may be amended from time to time (the “Merger Agreement”), which provides for the acquisition of Oclaro through (1) a merger of Merger Sub with and into Oclaro (the “First Step Merger”) with Oclaro surviving the First Step Merger, and (2), as soon as reasonably practicable following the First Step Merger, a merger of Oclaro with and into Merger Sub LLC (the “Second Step Merger,” and, together with the First Step Merger, the “Merger”), with Merger Sub LLC surviving as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Lumentum.

 

  2. Non-Binding, Advisory Approval of Compensation Payments . A proposal (the “Compensation Proposal”) to approve, on a non-binding, advisory basis, the compensation payments that will or may be made to Oclaro’s named executive officers in connection with the Merger.

 

  3. Adjournment of the Special Meeting . A proposal (the “Adjournment Proposal”) to approve the adjournment of the Special Meeting, from time to time, if necessary or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies if there are not sufficient votes at the time of the Special Meeting to approve the Merger Proposal.
