Item 8.01 | OTHER EVENTS |
On July 17, 2012, Opnext and Oclaro issued a joint press release announcing that Opnexts stockholders approved the adoption of the Merger Agreement. Also on July 17, 2012, at a special meeting of Oclaros stockholders, the stockholders of Oclaro were asked to approve two proposals related to the issuance of the Oclaro shares necessary to complete the merger of Sub into Opnext. The first proposal, which was approved, was to issue Oclaro shares to the Opnext stockholders to complete the merger. The second proposal, to increase the number of authorized Oclaro shares in order to have sufficient shares to issue to the Opnext stockholders to complete the merger, has not yet been approved by the necessary vote. Oclaro stockholders approved a proposal to adjourn the stockholder meeting until July 23, 2012, 5 p.m. PDT, in order to solicit the additional votes required to approve the second proposal and complete the merger.
A copy of the joint press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
