Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
(d) Effective May 5, 2015, the Board of Directors (the Board) of JDS
Uniphase Corporation (the Company or JDSU) appointed Pamela Strayer as a director of the Company. Ms. Strayers appointment is contingent upon the completion of the distribution of the common stock of Lumentum
Holdings Inc. to JDSU stockholders in connection with the spin-off of JDSUs communications and commercial optical products business, which the Company has announced it expects to complete by the third quarter of calendar 2015. Following her
appointment, Ms. Strayer will serve until the 2015 annual meeting of JDSU stockholders or until her earlier resignation or removal. The Board also anticipates that Ms. Strayer will be appointed to the Audit Committee of the Board.
Ms. Strayer is currently the chief financial officer at Plantronics, Inc., a position she has held since July 2012. She is also Certified Public
Accountant. Ms. Strayer holds a B.A. degree in Business Administration from The Ohio State University.
Upon the effectiveness of
Ms. Strayers appointment it is expected that she will receive an initial equity grant of restricted stock units having a value on the grant date of $200,000 (the New Director Grant) under the Companys Amended and
Restated 2003 Equity Incentive Plan (the 2003 Plan). The New Director Grant is in accordance with the Companys compensation policies for new non-employee directors as adopted by the Board, with the number of shares determined based
upon the average price of the Companys shares on the NASDAQ Stock Market for the 30 calendar days preceding the grant date. The New Director Grant will vest annually in three equal installments on each anniversary of the grant date.
The Company and Ms. Strayer will also enter into the Companys standard form of director indemnification agreement (the Indemnification
Agreement), providing for the Company to indemnify Ms. Strayer as a director of the Company for certain potential risks as specified in the Indemnification Agreement. A copy of the Companys form of Indemnification Agreement is
attached as Exhibit 10.9 to the Current Report on Form 8-K which the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 20, 2015, and is incorporated by reference herein.
