VislinkInfinera Corporation 2021 Proxy Statement and 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K Infinera Corporation 6373 San Ignacio Avenue San Jose, California 95119 Dear Shareholders, It goes without saying that 2020 was a year of extraordinary challenges. It was also a year that reinforced the critical role that connectivity plays in our personal and professional lives. With the impact of the global pandemic as a backdrop, never has our purpose as a company — “to enable a connected world with unlimited bandwidth for everyone — everywhere, always and instantly” — been so important. Despite the difficult environment, we delivered a solid performance thanks to the commitment, resilience and heroic efforts of our employees across the globe. Throughout the year we leveraged our strong focus on execution and business transformation to drive the operational improvements that were evidenced in our fiscal 2020 financial results. At the same time, we invested in a strategy founded on industry-leading innovation, operational excellence, and a customer-centric focus that informs every aspect of our business and culture. We believe this is a great time to be a differentiated, vertically integrated supplier of high-performance open optical technology. Our global customers continue to experience significant bandwidth growth that fuels demand for our solutions. We believe that we have the right products to serve this demand, expand market share, and position the company for long-term success. In my newly appointed role as CEO, I am truly honored to lead such a great company and exceptional group of people. Working together as a team, we are focused on serving our customers’ needs and advancing our culture of innovation, inclusion and social responsibility as we drive our business forward. Our people represent our greatest asset, and I thank them for their ongoing commitment and resolve. While we remain cognizant of the current macroeconomic climate and ongoing pandemic-related challenges, we have entered 2021 with a solid foundation that we believe will allow us to achieve our mission to create long- term value for our shareholders, customers, and employees. Lastly, I humbly ask for your voting support of the proposals described in this proxy statement so that we may continue the work we have begun. Thank you for your investment in Infinera and belief in our team. I look forward to continuing to share with you the progress we make together in the years ahead. Sincerely, David W. Heard Chief Executive Officer Dear Fellow Infinera Shareholders, Infinera Corporation 6373 San Ignacio Avenue San Jose, California 95119 Reflecting on the past year, it has been a privilege to serve on the Board of a company providing essential and continuous services in a time of global crisis. The company and its management team rose to the many challenges they faced and continued to build a strong foundation for the future, all while prioritizing the health and safety of the company’s employees, customers, and communities. The company’s unwavering commitment to stakeholders during the COVID-19 pandemic reflects the highest standards of ethics and corporate governance that permeate the company. At Infinera, we are proud of the company’s governance and social responsibility practices and the benefits they bring our shareholders and other stakeholders. As the independent chair of the Board, I collaborate with the company’s highly qualified Board members to oversee management of the company on behalf of the shareholders. Over the past two years we have strengthened our Board’s diversity of experience, perspective and expertise with the addition of five new Board members, including three female directors. Their insights and contributions have been invaluable as the company made steady progress toward its strategic goals and aligned investments to target high-growth segments of the optical transport market. We take our role as a corporate citizen seriously, and during the year we made continued progress across our environmental, social and governance (ESG) goals and corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives, as well as our ongoing commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion, which, taken together, have become increasingly critical to our customers, employees and shareholders. Our achievements in these areas include the development of plans to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions by 50 percent throughout our value chain by 2030 and the launch of Infinera ALL-In, an employee-led initiative to promote, facilitate and support sustainable, company-wide efforts that lead to meaningful and measurable results in our approach to diversity, inclusion and belonging at Infinera. 2020 was an important transition year for the business, both in terms of performance and potential. On the financial front, we grew the top line, improved our gross margins, completed the integration of our Coriant acquisition, improved our operating processes and dramatically changed our cash flow trajectory. We also made a seamless leadership transition with a new CEO and Chairman in the latter half of the year, and demonstrated continued progress in advancing our innovation pipeline. Infinera continues its journey of delivering differentiated innovations that fundamentally change the economics and agility of networks in order to provide meaningful value to customers and shareholders. On behalf of the Board and the leadership of Infinera, I want to thank you for your continued support and participation in this year’s Annual Meeting. We are confident in our ability to execute against our vision and we are happy to have you on the journey with us. Sincerely, George A.

Board and Governance Highlights Board Independence. Nine out of twelve of our directors are independent in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC and the listing standards of Nasdaq. 1 Board Diversity. The Board consists of a diverse group of professionals who bring significant leadership and distinct qualities and skill sets to Infinera. Three of our directors are female, one of whom was appointed as chair of our Nominating and Governance committee during 2020. While we believe the current composition of the Board provides a diverse range of perspectives and experience to engage each other and management to effectively represent our shareholders, we are actively engaged in efforts to further increase our Board’s cultural and ethnic diversity. Leadership Structure. We have separated the positions of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”). Board and Committee Evaluation. The Board and its committees assess their performance through an annual self-evaluation. Board Tenure. The average tenure of our current Board members is approximately five years and six months. We have refreshed our Board by appointing five new directors in the last two years. Board Committees. We have three standing committees of the Board – Audit, Compensation, and Nominating and Governance. All committees are composed entirely of independent directors. Director Stock Ownership. Each non-employee director is required to own shares of Infinera common stock having a value of at least four times the annual cash retainer for service as a director. Risk Oversight. Members of our senior management team are responsible for implementation of our day-to-day risk management processes, while the Board, as a whole and through its committees, has responsibility for the oversight of overall risk management. Executive Compensation Program Highlights The design of our executive compensation program for fiscal 2020 reflects our ongoing commitment to pay-for-performance and the continued strong alignment of the interests of our named executive officers (“NEOs”) with those of our shareholders. At the beginning of fiscal 2020, when a majority of executive compensation decisions were made, the Compensation Committee considered the performance of our company as we exited fiscal 2019 and the goal of achieving non-GAAP operating profitability. The decisions made reflected a continuing effort to maintain a strong pay-for-performance profile and supported accountability of our leadership team for our financial performance. Highlights of our executive compensation program for fiscal 2020 included: We took proactive measures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Given the macroeconomic changes that began in spring 2020 that created significant challenges, our Compensation Committee took proactive measures to adjust the executive compensation program to reduce expenses, preserve cash and to better position us in light of the rapidly changing business environment. These measures included certain NEO salary reductions during 2020, as well as the cancellation of our 2020 bonus plan for the second half of 2020. Additionally, the Board temporarily reduced fees for our directors during 2020 to complement these measures. Our compensation program continues to emphasize pay-for-performance. We emphasize performance-based incentives for compensation for all of our NEOs, including in particular our CEO. For Thomas Fallon, our CEO for most of 2020, 60% of the target value of equity granted in fiscal 2020 was in the form of performance share awards. In addition, Mr. Fallon’s realized compensation is aligned with our shareholder return in 2020 and was significantly below target in 2018, 2019 and 2020. Realized compensation for our CEO was approximately 70% to 80% below target in each of the most recent three fiscal years. We continue to maintain sound corporate governance policies and practices. During fiscal 2020, the following policies and practices continued to be in effect: (cid:129) Compensation At-Risk (cid:129) Executive Clawback Policy (cid:129) Anti-Hedging Policy (cid:129) No Pledging of our Common Stock by NEOs (cid:129) Fully Independent Compensation Committee (cid:129) Majority Voting for the Election of Directors (cid:129) Stock Ownership Policy (cid:129) “Double-Trigger” Change-of-Control Agreements (cid:129) Annual Compensation Risk Assessment Independent Compensation Consultant (cid:129) Reporting Directly to Compensation Committee 2 INFINERA CORPORATION PROXY STATEMENT 2021 ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS Proposal 1—Election of Directors We have endeavored to summarize the accomplishments, attributes and experiences of the members of our Board in short bullets to make them easy to read because we think there is little that is more important to emphasize in this proxy statement than the caliber of our directors. Our Board members have created and patented technologies, founded and grown companies, managed complex financial, accounting and technology issues and spent significant time representing customers, investors and shareholders. We believe that the caliber of our people and the breadth and complementary nature of their skills, attributes and experiences are among the most important aspects of our governance best practices. WHO WE ARE The director information we provide below includes their respective ages as of the Record Date, the periods during which they have served as a director, certain information as to their principal occupations, directorships they hold in corporations whose shares are publicly registered, and qualifications for serving as a member of the Board, including the skills, qualities, attributes and experiences that led the Board to determine it is appropriate to nominate these directors. Nominees for Election as Class II Directors. If re-elected, the Class II Director terms would expire at the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Vote Required Directors are elected by a majority vote, which means that each of the four director nominees requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast in order to be elected. Abstentions will have the same effect as an “AGAINST” vote. Broker non-votes are not deemed to be votes cast and, therefore, are not included in the tabulation of the voting results on this proposal and will not affect the outcome of the vote. 3 Proposal 1—Recommendation of the Board The Board unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” the election of each of the four Class II nominees listed below.

In discharging its responsibilities to nominate candidates for election to the Board, the Nominating and Governance Committee endeavors to identify, recruit and nominate candidates characterized by wisdom, maturity, sound judgment, excellent business skills and high integrity. The Nominating and Governance Committee seeks to ensure that the Board is composed of individuals of diverse backgrounds who have a variety of complementary experience, training, attributes and relationships relevant to our business. In nominating candidates to fill vacancies created by the expiration of the term of a director, the Nominating and Governance Committee determines whether the incumbent director is willing to stand for re-election. The Nominating and Governance Committee evaluates each director’s performance to determine suitability for re-election, taking into consideration, among other things, each director’s willingness to fully participate and contribute to the Board and its committees, ability to work constructively with the rest of the members of the Board, personal and professional integrity and familiarity with our business, operations and markets. Each of the nominees to fill positions as Class II directors have consented to serve if elected. However, if any of the persons nominated by the Board subsequently declines to accept election, or is otherwise unavailable for election prior to the Annual Meeting, proxies solicited by the Board will be voted by the proxy holders for the election of any other person or persons as the Board may recommend, at its option, or may decide to further reduce the number of directors that constitute the entire Board. The Board currently consists of twelve directors and is divided into three classes. Each class of the Board serves a staggered three-year term. Our Class II directors, whose terms expire at the Annual Meeting, are Gregory P. Dougherty, David W. Heard, Paul J. Milbury and David F. Welch, Ph.D. There are four nominees for election to Class II of the Board this year: Messrs. Dougherty, Heard and Milbury and Dr. Welch. The nomination of these directors to stand for election at the Annual Meeting has been recommended by the Nominating and Governance Committee and has been approved by the Board. Each of the nominees for our Class II directors, if elected, will serve for a three-year term expiring at the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, or until his successor is duly elected and qualified, or until his earlier death, resignation or removal from the Board. After the Annual Meeting, the Board will consist of twelve members. Our Amended and Restated Bylaws (“Bylaws”) provide that, in an election of directors where the number of nominees does not exceed the number of directors to be elected, each director nominee must receive a majority of votes cast with respect to that director nominee. Should one of the nominees up for election not receive a majority of votes cast, the Board, after taking into consideration the recommendation of the Nominating and Governance Committee, will determine whether or not to accept a pre-tendered resignation of such nominee. The Board will publicly disclose its decision and its rationale within 90 days of the certification of the election results. The director whose resignation is under consideration shall abstain from participating in any decision regarding that resignation. We believe the current Board consists of a diverse group of professionals, including former CEOs, CFOs and industry leaders, who bring significant leadership and distinct qualities and skill sets to Infinera, including direct shareholder representation by our second largest shareholder. This group provides a diverse range of perspectives and experience to engage each other and management to effectively represent our shareholders. In addition, the Board added its first female director in June 2019 and second and third female directors in 2020, and appointed a female director to chair our Nominating and Governance Committee in 2020. These actions further highlight our commitment to diversity. Any search firms retained to assist the Nominating and Governance Committee will be specifically advised to seek to include qualified, diverse candidates from traditional and nontraditional environments, including members of underrepresented communities. Independence of the Board On an annual basis, in accordance with the current listing standards of Nasdaq, the Board affirmatively determines the independence of each director or nominee for election as a director. The Board has determined 14 that nine out of twelve of our directors (with the exception of Mr. Heard and Dr. Welch, both of whom are employees of Infinera, and Mr. Fallon, who was an employee of Infinera until November 2020) are “independent” in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC and the listing standards of Nasdaq. Also, all members of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Governance Committee, as more fully described below, are independent directors. HOW WE GOVERN AND ARE GOVERNED Although it is important and exciting to focus on opportunities and successes, we at Infinera believe it is also important to focus on responsible compliance, risk management, and governance structures and functions. Success in our sector in particular depends on maintaining an ability to identify challenges early, maintaining best possible security and governance practices, and fostering an ability to pivot quickly and continually. Board Oversight of Risk Risk is inherent with every business and the Board is responsible for overseeing our risk management function, including a regular review of our strategic plans and business objectives. Members of our senior management team are responsible for implementation of our day-to-day risk management processes, while the Board, as a whole and through its committees, has responsibility for the oversight of overall risk management. In addition, each of the committees of the Board considers any risks that may be within its area of responsibilities and Board members, or Board committee members, periodically engage in discussions with members of our senior management team as appropriate. Specifically, the Audit Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to risk management in the areas of financial reporting, internal controls, key accounting and reporting policies, and cybersecurity, as well as meeting with the Head of Internal Audit and our external independent auditors. The Compensation Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to the management of risks arising from our compensation policies and programs. The Nominating and Governance Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to the management of risks associated with Board organization, membership and structure, succession planning for our directors and executive officers, and corporate governance. Each of the committee chairs reports to the full Board at regular meetings concerning the activities of the committee, the significant issues it has discussed, and the actions taken by the committee. Code of Business Conduct and Ethics We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, most recently updated in March 2019, which applies to all of our employees, officers (including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, and principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions) and our directors. The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics reflects our policy of dealing honestly and with integrity with everyone, including our customers, employees, investors and suppliers. We require all employees to complete training on our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is just one element of the many practices and procedures we utilize to try to create a diverse and inclusive culture that encourages helpful and honest communication both up and down reporting relationship chains. Our executive leaders set the tone for this culture at the top and our ability to maintain a positive and creative work environment depends on its success. Our annual Infinera Sustainability Report describes some of the additional programs and practices we maintain to protect our people and their productivity, health and well-being. A copy of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is posted on our website at www.infinera.com in the Corporate Governance section on our Investors page. You may also obtain a copy of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics without charge by writing to: Infinera Corporation, c/o Corporate Secretary, 6373 San Ignacio Avenue, San Jose, California 95119. We intend to disclose future amendments to certain provisions of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, or waivers of such provisions, applicable to any principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions and our directors on our website identified above or on a Current Report on Form 8-K if required by the applicable listing standards. 15 Corporate Governance Guidelines The Board has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines which govern, among other things, Board composition, Board responsibilities, committee composition, management succession and shareholder communications. You can access these Corporate Governance Guidelines, along with other materials such as Board committee charters, in the Corporate Governance section on our Investors page at www.infinera.com. Stock Ownership Policy The Board believes that it is important to link the interests of our directors and management to those of our shareholders. Accordingly, the Board has adopted a Stock Ownership Policy for our directors and executive officers who are designated as reporting officers under Section 16 (“Section 16 Officers”) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). For additional information regarding our Stock Ownership Policy, please see the section entitled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Additional Information Regarding Our Compensation Practices—Stock Ownership Policy.” Corporate Social Responsibility We strive to be a corporation that strategically considers all choices in light of our role in the global community. We view the influence we have as a privilege that inspires us to lead with socially responsible practices. Whenever possible, our hope is to use that influence to drive new best practices and a sense of obligation to the world around us. Each year we summarize our sustainability program and activities in the Infinera Sustainability Report, which describes our practices, metrics, targets and disclosures. We encourage you to read our 2019 Infinera Sustainability Report, published in 2020, as well as our 2020 report when released in the coming months. A copy of the Sustainability Report can be found on the “Corporate Social Responsibility” page at our website at www.infinera.com, where you can also find other related policies and information, such as our Supplier Code of Conduct. In addition: (cid:129) As a global company, Infinera seeks to be a good corporate citizen in its dealing with customers, suppliers, employees, and the communities where we operate throughout the world. To ensure alignment across the supply chain, the Infinera Supplier Code of Conduct sets out the minimum standards expected of Infinera’s suppliers, so they act ethically, responsibly, and in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. This code is required to be applied by our suppliers to their direct suppliers and subcontractors, including providers of contract labor, at a minimum. (cid:129) We strive to be a diverse company with an inclusive culture, as reflected in the way we treat each other and respect our differences, and how we do business with our customers and partners around the world. (cid:129) We are committed to using our design, development and sales practice to protect personal data against unauthorized access, use, retention and disclosure. Infinera’s data security practices are managed by our Chief Information Security Officer, and we have implemented an Information Security Management System and security controls for data privacy protection. (cid:129) All of our full-time employees, and regular part-time employees working at least 24 hours per week, are eligible for all Infinera benefits. (cid:129) We are members of the Responsible Minerals Initiative. (cid:129) We incorporate standards from the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board into our materiality assessment and use both a UN Global Compact and a GRI Index in our ESG reporting. We are fortunate to operate in a sector that presents relatively few major environmental challenges while creating many opportunities to provide environmental stewardship and social benefits. In addition to the practices, targets, metrics and disclosures summarized above, our operations directly help people connect socially and professionally; run their businesses more efficiently, fairly and globally; and enable the management of risks that are created by living in a connected global economy. 16 HOW WE ARE ORGANIZED Board Leadership Structure The Board believes its current leadership structure best serves the objectives of the Board’s oversight of management, the Board’s ability to carry out its roles and responsibilities on behalf of our shareholders, and our overall corporate governance. Separating the positions of Chairman of the Board and CEO allows our CEO to focus on our day-to-day business, while allowing the Chairman of the Board to lead the Board in its fundamental role of providing advice to and independent oversight of management. While our Bylaws do not require that our Chairman of the Board and CEO positions be separate, the Board believes that having separate positions is the appropriate leadership structure for Infinera at this time and demonstrates our commitment to good corporate governance practices. The Board has assigned the Chairman of the Board responsibility for presiding over meetings of the Board, developing meeting agendas, facilitating communication between management and the Board, representing director views to management and improving meeting effectiveness, among other things. In November 2020, Mr. Hooshmand stepped down as Chairman of the Board after serving in that role since October 2010 and Mr. Riedel became Chairman of the Board. The Board also believes that the combination of an independent Chairman of the Board, all three of our current standing committees being comprised entirely of independent directors and the regular use of executive sessions of the independent directors enables the Board to maintain independent oversight of our strategies and activities. Agreement with Oaktree Optical Holdings In April 2020, we entered into a letter agreement with Oaktree Optical Holdings, L.P. (“Oaktree”) pursuant to which we agreed, among other things, to nominate and support Ms. Rice for election as a director at the 2020 Annual Meeting. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the letter agreement, Oaktree and certain affiliates agreed to vote all of its shares at the 2020 Annual Meeting in a manner consistent with the recommendation of our Board. Oaktree also agreed to customary standstill restrictions. Our letter agreement with Oaktree also required that Infinera and Oaktree reasonably cooperate to identify a director candidate (the “Independent Designee”) for consideration by our Nominating and Governance Committee. In June 2020, Ms. Bucklin joined the Board as the Independent Designee. Information Regarding the Board and its Committees Ms. Rice joined our Board in April 2020. Ms. Bucklin and Mr. Riedel joined our Board in June 2020. Mr. Heard joined our Board in November 2020 in conjunction with his promotion to CEO. Rajal M. Patel did not stand for re-election at the 2020 Annual Meeting of Shareholders in May 2020. The Board met 24 times during fiscal 2020. The Board acted by written consent five times during fiscal 2020. During fiscal 2020, each director then in office attended 75% or more of the meetings of the Board other than Mr. Patel, who attended 71% of such Board meetings. During fiscal 2020, each director then in office attended 75% or more of the meetings of the committees on which he or she served during the period for which he or she was a committee chairman or committee member, as applicable, other than Mr. Patel, who attended 40% of such Nominating and Governance Committee meetings. Our independent directors meet in executive sessions, without management present, during most regular meetings of the Board. Directors are encouraged, but not required, to attend our annual meetings of shareholders. Six of the then-serving nine members of the Board attended our 2020 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. 17 The Board had three standing committees as of the end of fiscal 2020: an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee and a Nominating and Governance Committee. Mr. Fallon, Mr. Heard and Dr. Welch do not currently serve on any committees of the Board.

The Audit Committee also consults with our management and our independent registered public accounting firm prior to the presentation of financial statements to shareholders and, as appropriate, initiates inquiries into aspects of our financial affairs.

Board Nominees and Diversity The Nominating and Governance Committee reviews and reports to the Board on a periodic basis with regard to matters of corporate governance, and reviews, assesses and makes recommendations on the effectiveness of 19 our corporate governance policies. In addition, the Nominating and Governance Committee reviews and makes recommendations to the Board regarding the size and composition of the Board and the appropriate skills and characteristics required of our directors in the context of the then-current composition of the Board. This includes an assessment of each candidate’s independence, personal and professional integrity, financial literacy or other professional or business experience relevant to an understanding of our business, ability to think and act independently and with sound judgment, and ability to serve our shareholders’ long-term interests. The Board and the Nominating and Governance Committee follow a process that we consider best practices when reviewing the overall composition of the Board and considering the slate of nominees for annual election to the Board and the appointment of individual directors to the Board. The Board and Nominating and Governance Committee evaluates the skill sets needed to provide the right level of guidance and oversight to the management team. Within the context of evaluating the skills needed on the Board, the Nominating and Governance Committee also considers diversity attributes, including gender, race, orientation, ethnicity, specialized expertise and a range of insight gathered from relevant industries. These factors, and others considered useful by the Nominating and Governance Committee, are reviewed in the context of an assessment of the perceived needs of the Board at a particular point in time. The Nominating and Governance Committee leads the search for, selects and recommends candidates for election to the Board. Consideration of new director candidates typically involves a series of committee discussions, review of information concerning candidates and interviews with selected candidates. From time to time, the Nominating and Governance Committee may engage the services of a search firm to identify director candidates. Any search firms retained to assist the Nominating and Governance Committee will be specifically advised to seek to include qualified, diverse candidates from traditional and nontraditional environments, including members of underrepresented communities. The Nominating and Governance Committee will also consider candidates proposed in writing by shareholders, provided such proposal meets the eligibility requirements for submitting shareholder proposals for inclusion in our next proxy statement and is accompanied by the required information about the candidate specified in Section 2.4 of our Bylaws. Candidates proposed by shareholders are evaluated by the Nominating and Governance Committee using the same criteria as for all other candidates. If a shareholder wishes to recommend a director candidate for consideration by the Nominating and Governance Committee, pursuant to our Corporate Governance Guidelines, the shareholder must have held at least 1,000 shares of our common stock for at least six months and must notify the Nominating and Governance Committee by writing to our Corporate Secretary at our principal executive offices, and must include the following information: (cid:129) To the extent reasonably available, information relating to such director candidate that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act, in which such individual would be a nominee for election to the Board; (cid:129) The director candidate’s written consent to (a) if selected, be named in our proxy statement and proxy, and (b) if elected, to serve on the Board; (cid:129) The other information set forth in the applicable sections of Section 2.4 of our Bylaws; and (cid:129) Any other information that such shareholder believes is relevant in considering the director candidate. Non-Executive Equity Award Subcommittee The guidelines for the size of new hire, promotional and annual retention equity awards for Section 16 Officers are reviewed and approved by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee has delegated to the Non-Executive Equity Award Subcommittee (the “Subcommittee”) the authority to formally approve new hire, promotional and retention equity awards to certain employees pursuant to guidelines pre-approved from time to time by the Compensation Committee. The delegation to the Subcommittee does not include the authority to grant equity awards to new employees who are or are reasonably expected to become Section 16 Officers or to current Section 16 Officers. The delegation of authority to the Subcommittee is not exclusive and the Board and Compensation Committee have retained the right to approve any equity awards at their discretion. The Subcommittee acted by written consent eleven times during fiscal 2020. This Subcommittee is currently comprised solely of our CEO (who is also a Board member). 20 Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation During fiscal 2020, Messrs. Dougherty, Gani, Milbury and Riedel served on the Compensation Committee. None of these individuals was an executive officer or employee of Infinera at any time during fiscal 2020, or at any other time. No member of the Compensation Committee had any relationship with Infinera during fiscal 2020 requiring disclosure under Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act. None of our executive officers has ever served as a member of the board or compensation committee of any other entity that has or has had one or more executive officers serving as a member of the Board or Compensation Committee. HOW TO COMMUNICATE WITH US The Board actively seeks input from shareholders, stakeholders, thought leaders and many others to perform its functions optimally. As shareholders bring wide and relevant experiences and have a financial stake in the wisdom of their input, the Board values maintaining a number of avenues to receive that input. These include: (cid:129) Shareholder attendance or participation at our annual shareholders meetings; (cid:129) Input from proxy voting; (cid:129) Use of the company’s various reporting mechanisms such as its “hot lines’ and reports to the internal; audit function; and (cid:129) Participation in our numerous investor relations programs and conferences. Write to the Board as a whole, or to individual directors, at the following address: Board of Directors c/o Corporate Secretary Infinera Corporation 6373 San Ignacio Avenue San Jose, California 95119 Communications are distributed to the Board or to any individual director, as appropriate, depending on the facts and circumstances outlined in the communication. At the direction of the Board, all mail received may be opened and screened for security purposes. Communications that are unduly hostile, threatening, illegal or similarly unsuitable will be excluded with the provision that any communication that is filtered out will be made available to any independent or non-employee director upon request. HOW WE ARE PAID Our compensation program for our non-employee directors is designed to attract and retain highly qualified, independent directors to represent shareholders on the Board and to act in their best interests. The Compensation Committee, which consists solely of independent directors, has the primary responsibility for reviewing and recommending any changes to our director compensation program, with compensation changes approved or ratified by the full Board. During fiscal 2019, the Compensation Committee engaged an outside advisor to provide relevant market data regarding our director compensation program in order to review the program. The Compensation Committee and Board determined that a mix of cash compensation and equity awards should continue to be used in our compensation program for our non-employee directors. Directors who are also employees of Infinera do not participate in our director compensation program, nor do they receive any additional compensation for their service as directors. The Compensation Committee did not recommend any changes to our director compensation program after its review during fiscal 2019, or during fiscal 2020. The full Board last approved changes to the director cash compensation program in December 2015, other than to approve fees for service on the Integration Oversight Committee, which has since ceased to exist, and as noted below with respect to COVID-19 related fee reductions during fiscal 2020. Director Fees As part of the Company’s proactive cost-cutting measures in response to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, on May 11, 2020, the non-employee members of the Board elected to reduce their annual retainer fees 21 for service on the Board and its committees by 35%, to be in effect from May 23, 2020 until the earlier of December 26, 2020 or the date such annual retainer fees are reinstated by the Board. On November 20, 2020, the Board reinstated such annual retainer fees to the levels in effect prior to the May 2020 reductions, effective as of December 5, 2020. During fiscal 2020, our cash compensation program for our non-employee directors was as follows: Position Annual Retainer Fee(1) ($) Non-Employee Director . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

We do not pay meeting fees for the Board or any of the committees of the Board. We pay the retainer fees set forth above in quarterly installments. Retainer fees are paid in arrears. In addition, we have a policy of reimbursing our non-employee directors for reasonable travel, lodging and other expenses incurred in connection with their attendance at Board and committee meetings. Director Equity Awards Non-employee directors are eligible to receive equity awards as follows: (cid:129) Initial RSU Award. Each individual who commences service as a non-employee director upon his or her appointment to the Board or election at an annual meeting of shareholders will receive an RSU award covering a number of shares determined by dividing $165,000 by the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, with any resulting fractional share rounded down to the nearest whole share (the “Initial RSU Award”). The Initial RSU Award vests in annual installments over three years, provided that the non-employee director remains a service provider of Infinera through each applicable vesting date. (cid:129) Annual RSU Award. On the date of each annual meeting of shareholders, each individual who continues to serve as a non-employee director after that annual meeting will be eligible to receive an RSU award covering a number of shares determined by dividing $165,000 by the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, with any resulting fractional share rounded down to the nearest whole share (the “Annual RSU Award”). The Annual RSU Award will vest as to 100% of the underlying shares on the earlier of the date of the next annual meeting of shareholders or the one-year anniversary of the date of grant, provided that the non-employee director remains a service provider of Infinera on the applicable vesting date. (cid:129) Prorated Annual RSU Award. Assuming a non-employee director is appointed to the Board after (rather than at) the most recently held annual meeting of shareholders but at least six months prior to the next annual meeting of shareholders, such non-employee director will be eligible for an annual RSU award covering a number of shares determined by first prorating $165,000 for the number of months remaining until the next scheduled annual meeting of shareholders and then dividing such prorated dollar amount by the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, with any resulting fractional share rounded down to the nearest whole share (the “Prorated Annual RSU Award”). The Prorated Annual RSU Award will vest as to 100% of the underlying shares on the earlier of the date of the next annual meeting of shareholders or the one-year anniversary of the most recently held annual meeting of shareholders, provided that the non-employee director remains a service provider of Infinera on the applicable vesting date. 22 Fiscal 2020 Director Compensation The following table sets forth all of the compensation awarded to or earned by the non-employee members of the Board in fiscal 2020.

Our Named Executive Officers For fiscal 2020, our NEOs were the following: (cid:129) David W. Heard, our CEO; (cid:129) Thomas J. Fallon, our former CEO; (cid:129) Nancy Erba, our CFO; (cid:129) David L. Teichmann, our Chief Legal Officer (“CLO”) and Corporate Secretary; (cid:129) Nicholas Walden, our Senior Vice President, Worldwide Sales; and (cid:129) Robert J. Jandro, our former Senior Vice President, Worldwide Sales. Fiscal 2020 Management Changes. On August 5, 2020, we announced that Mr. Fallon would transition from his position as CEO and that Mr. Heard would become our CEO on a date to be later determined. On November 23, 2020, after 16 years of service to Infinera, Mr. Fallon transitioned from his position as CEO to an advisor and continued to serve as a Class I director, and Mr. Heard was appointed as CEO and a Class II director. In connection with his transition from CEO, Mr. Fallon entered into a Transition Agreement, the details of which are discussed further below. When we discuss our CEO compensation in fiscal 2020, we are referring to that of Mr. Fallon, unless specifically noted otherwise, reflecting that Mr. Fallon served as our CEO for almost eleven months of fiscal 2020. In addition, on January 3, 2020, Robert J. Jandro informed us of his decision to retire from his position as our Senior Vice President, Worldwide Sales, effective immediately, and was replaced by Mr. Walden effective as of January 5, 2020. Executive Summary Fiscal 2020 Business Results Fiscal 2020 was a year of strong progress for Infinera in the face of challenging conditions, including the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company achieved a one-year total shareholder return (“TSR”) of 42%. We drove operational and financial improvements, achieved revenue growth slightly above the market, meaningfully expanded operating margin, improved our cash flow and strengthened our balance sheet. In the fourth quarter of 2020, we achieved positive non-GAAP EPS and generated free cash flow. Our financial performance for the full year was impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, as was true for much of our market, and did not meet our expectations as set forth in our 2020 annual operating plan. Despite these achievements, during a year marked by the impact and challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, our fiscal 2020 financial performance fell short of the goals we established at the beginning of the year under our 2020 annual operating plan. In particular, our non-GAAP operating loss for the first half of fiscal 2020 was $37 million compared to a target non-GAAP operating loss of $7 million established at the beginning of the year for our first half 2020 bonus plan (the “First Half 2020 Bonus Plan”). In the second half of fiscal 2020, after taking proactive measures to reduce costs and conserve cash in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic, we achieved $31 million of non-GAAP operating income and generated cash flow from operations. We are making significant progress in our business transformation. For example, we reached non-GAAP operating profitability in the third and fourth quarters of 2020, exited the fourth quarter of 2020 generating free cash flow and also logged significant bookings growth. We have a plan for continued technology innovation over the next several years, as we build on our existing technologies such as XTM and ICE6, as well as a roadmap for developing new open optical products and technologies, such as XR Optics. 25 Fiscal 2020 was also a year of significant accomplishment in further positioning us for future growth and establishing us as a technology leader in the optical networking market. Our progress is marked by achievements in these key areas: (cid:129) We ended the year with a solid financial performance in the fourth quarter of 2020. Despite facing headwinds throughout a year impacted by COVID-19, non-GAAP revenue for the quarter was $354.4 million, compared to $341.2 million in the third quarter of 2020 and $386.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. In addition, non-GAAP operating margin improved to 6.6% in the fourth quarter of 2020 as we achieved $23 million of non-GAAP operating income for the quarter. This compares to $7.4 million of non-GAAP operating income, representing 2.2% of revenue, in the third quarter of 2020 and $8.8 million of non-GAAP operating income, representing 2.3% of revenue, in the fourth quarter of 2019. Additionally, we generated $40 million of free cash flow in the fourth quarter of 2020 through our efforts focused on operational and working capital improvements. (cid:129) Our portfolio of products and services enabled us to win important new customers in fiscal 2020 and we increased revenue from our compact modular Groove/GX and XTM Metro platforms. We continue to believe our portfolio positions us well for future growth. (cid:129) We made continued progress with our fifth generation 800 gigabits per second platform as we secured design wins, received purchase orders, and delivered our first qualification units to a major customer. In fiscal 2020, we increased our investment in differentiated open optical technology, including XR Optics. The following table illustrates our GAAP revenue and non-GAAP operating loss over the last three fiscal years: $1400 $1200 $1000 $800 $600 $400 $200 $0 Revenue (in millions) Non-GAAP Opera(cid:2)ng Loss (in millions)(1) $1,298.9 $1,355.6 $943.4 $0 -$10 -$20 -$30 -$40 -$50 -$60 -$70 -$80 -$90 ($48.9) FY18 FY19 Fiscal Year FY20 FY18 ($6.3) ($82.5) FY19 Fiscal Year FY20 (1) For a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP revenue, gross profit, gross margin, operating income (loss) and operating margin for fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018, please see Appendix A to this Proxy Statement. 26 The following graph shows our 1-, 3- and 5-year TSR as compared to the Standard & Poor’s North American Technology Multimedia Networking Index (“S&P Networking Index”), measured from the last trading day of fiscal 2020.

The decisions made reflected a continuing effort to maintain a strong pay-for-performance profile and supported accountability of our leadership team for our financial performance. As indicated below, a significant portion of our executive compensation program is designed to align the compensation outcomes for our participating NEOs with performance against measurable objectives. 27 Executive Compensation Program Structure Compensation Element (CEO/average NEO(1) allocation at target) Structure and Attributes Base Salary (14% CEO/25% NEOs) (cid:129) Competitively benchmarked (cid:129) CEO base salary restored to 2017 level, prior to reduction as part of corporate restructuring program (cid:129) No base salary increase for NEOs in 2020 Target Annual Cash Incentive (17% CEO/20% NEOs) (cid:129) Based on objective performance metrics: (cid:129) First half of 2020: Non-GAAP Operating Income (cid:129) Second half of 2020: No metrics set; plan cancelled (cid:129) No payout made under H1 metrics Long-Term Performance- Based Stock Awards (41% CEO/27.5% NEOs) (cid:129) Based on objective performance metric: Non-GAAP gross margin above a threshold either over a full fiscal year or four consecutive quarters during the three-year performance period that began with fiscal 2020 and ends with fiscal 2022 (cid:129) Vesting occurs when pre-set targets for each award are met and sustained for periods required by each award (cid:129) CEO received 60% performance-based shares; other NEOs received 50% Long-Term Restricted Stock Awards (28% CEO/27.5% NEOs) (cid:129) Designed for long-term retention and to provide strong long-term shareholder alignment (cid:129) RSUs vest over three years, with one-third vesting after one year and then quarterly for the remaining two years (cid:129) CEO received 40% restricted stock; other NEOs received 50% (1) Does not include Mr. Jandro; Mr. Heard compensation reflects COO compensation levels Proactive Measures Taken During Fiscal 2020 and Pay-for-Performance Outcome in Fiscal 2020 Given the macroeconomic changes that began in spring 2020 that created significant challenges, our Compensation Committee took proactive measures to adjust the executive compensation program to reduce expenses, preserve cash and to better position us in light of the rapidly changing business environment. As part of these measures, in May 2020, our Compensation Committee approved the reduction of certain of our NEOs’ salaries by 20%-25% from their then current salary levels. In addition, the bonus program for our NEOs for the second half of 2020 was cancelled in connection with our Board’s approval of an updated operating plan for the second half of fiscal 2020. Further, and consistent with our compensation policy promoting strong pay and performance alignment, under our fiscal 2020 executive compensation program: (cid:129) No bonuses were paid under our 2020 Bonus Plan for participating NEOs. We did not achieve the necessary financial targets for the first half of 2020, and the bonus program for the second half of 2020 was cancelled in response to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Infinera; (cid:129) None of the performance shares granted in early 2020, which are subject to achievement of a stretch non-GAAP gross margin performance goal over a three-year performance period, became eligible to vest based on performance during 2020; (cid:129) Portions of the long-term performance shares granted in 2017 and 2018 were earned at the completion of fiscal 2020 but at below-target levels of performance, based on our TSR performance relative to that of an index group; and (cid:129) Realized compensation value for our CEO in fiscal 2020 was 34% of his target compensation. 28 Pay-for-Performance With Respect to Fiscal 2020 CEO Compensation We emphasize performance-based incentives for compensation for all of our NEOs, including in particular our CEO, as evidenced in the chart below, which illustrates Mr. Fallon’s target total direct compensation versus his actual realized compensation during the most recent three fiscal years, as well as our stock price during that time period. Target total direct compensation is defined as the sum of the base salary rate approved for each fiscal year, the target cash incentive for the year, and the grant date target value of equity awards. The target value of equity awards reflects the grant date share price of performance share awards, which differs from the value reported in the Summary Compensation Table below. Actual realized compensation includes the base salary and cash annual incentive earned during the year plus the sum of any RSUs and performance shares that vested during the year, valued using the share price on the vesting date.

In addition, although in March 2020 the Compensation Committee raised Mr. Fallon’s base salary for fiscal 2020, this action restored his salary only to its level as of October 2017, prior to its reduction as part of a corporate restructuring program. In May 2020, as part of proactive, temporary reductions to our NEO compensation designed to address the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on Infinera, his adjusted salary was then reduced by 25%. In addition, Mr. Fallon’s realized compensation is aligned with our shareholder return in 2020 and was significantly below target in 2018, 2019 and 2020. This relationship between realized pay and our total shareholder return continues a pattern from 2017 and demonstrates the alignment of pay and performance inherent in the design of our executive compensation programs. As the chart above illustrates, realized compensation for our CEO was approximately 70% to 80% below target in each of the most recent three fiscal years. Governance of Executive Compensation Our executive compensation program includes the following executive compensation governance policies and practices: (cid:129) Compensation At-Risk. Our executive compensation program is designed so that a significant portion of our NEO compensation is “at risk” based on corporate performance, as well as equity-based to align the interests of our NEOs and shareholders. (cid:129) Executive Clawback Policy. We maintain an executive clawback policy that applies to our Section 16 Officers and provides for recovery of both cash and equity incentive compensation under specified circumstances. (cid:129) Anti-Hedging Policy. Our Insider Trading Policy prohibits all employees, including our NEOs, and Board members, from hedging their Infinera common stock. 29 (cid:129) Anti-Pledging Policy. Our Insider Trading Policy prohibits our NEOs and Board members from pledging Infinera common stock as collateral for a loan. (cid:129) Fully Independent Compensation Committee. Our executive compensation program is administered annually by the Compensation Committee, which consists solely of independent directors. (cid:129) Stock Ownership Policy. Our Section 16 Officers and the non-employee members of the Board are subject to minimum stock ownership requirements. (cid:129) “Double-trigger” Change of Control Arrangements. Our change of control agreements contain “double- trigger” arrangements that require a termination of employment without cause or a constructive termination of employment following a change of control of Infinera before payments and benefits are triggered. (cid:129) Annual Compensation Risk Assessment. The Compensation Committee annually conducts a compensation risk assessment to determine whether our compensation arrangements, or components thereof, create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on Infinera. (cid:129) Independent Compensation Consultant Reporting Directly to Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee utilizes input from an independent compensation consultant that is retained directly by the Compensation Committee and performed no services for Infinera during fiscal 2020 other than services for the Compensation Committee. Overview of Our Executive Compensation Program Philosophy and Process Compensation Objectives and Philosophy Our executive compensation program is designed to attract, retain, and reward talented executive officers and to motivate them to pursue our corporate objectives, while fostering the creation of long-term value for our shareholders. To achieve this mission, we take a “pay-for-performance” approach that forms the foundation for the design of our executive compensation program. The Compensation Committee also designs the various components of our executive compensation program to support our company culture (i.e., increasing levels of accountability through the use of “at risk” pay for more senior level employees), the internal company environment relative to industry conditions, current business priorities, strategy and product development cycles, and current market practices of our peer group. Further, because we are in a period of transition, our compensation program measures progress on similar metrics in the short and long term and contains rewards for our executives that are earned when certain strategically important financial milestones are met and sustained. We believe this program is in the best interests of and aligned with our shareholders and maximizes the incentive for our employees and executive team to deliver shareholder value. Advisory Vote on Fiscal 2019 Named Executive Officer Compensation—“Say-on-Pay” Vote In calendar 2020, shareholders were provided with the opportunity to cast an advisory (non-binding) vote (a “say-on-pay” proposal) on the compensation of our NEOs for fiscal 2019. Our shareholders approved this say-on-pay proposal, with more than 86% of votes cast voting in favor of our executive compensation program. Noting the results of this vote, the Compensation Committee considered this shareholder approval when making compensation decisions for fiscal 2020 as well as fiscal 2021. In light of the 2020 say-on-pay vote, the Compensation Committee maintained a consistent general approach to our executive officer compensation program. This included a continued emphasis on pay-for-performance through the use of performance shares that reward executive officers only if they deliver value for our shareholders. When fiscal 2020 compensation decisions were made in March 2020, as noted above, the Compensation Committee approved no increases to the base salaries or target annual incentives of our NEOs, apart from our CEO, for whom the base salary was increased to the level in effect prior to December 2017, when it had been reduced as part of a restructuring initiative, while maintaining his target annual incentive level. Finally, the 2020 Bonus Plan enabled payout to our NEOs only if non-GAAP operating income objectives were met. The Compensation Committee will continue to consider input from our shareholders as reflected in the outcome of our annual say-on-pay vote when making executive compensation program decisions. 30 Compensation-Setting Process Role and Authority of Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee is responsible for our executive compensation program and all related policies and practices. The Compensation Committee has the responsibility to establish and approve the compensation of each of our executive officers, including our NEOs. In addition, the Compensation Committee reviews and administers our equity and employee benefit plans and programs, which are generally available to our employees, including our NEOs. The Compensation Committee also has the authority to engage its own advisors to assist it in carrying out its responsibilities, and the reasonable compensation for such advisor services is paid by Infinera. Role of Compensation Consultant. During fiscal 2020, the Compensation Committee engaged the services of Compensia, Inc. (“Compensia”), a national compensation consulting firm, as its independent compensation consultant to provide advice on matters relating to the compensation of our executives and non-employee directors. Compensia provided the Compensation Committee with an analysis of industry-sector competitive market data regarding NEO compensation, information on compensation trends, peer group and general market data, as well as assistance with the parameters used to determine the peer group, base salary, incentive plan design and the structure of our executive compensation program. During fiscal 2020, Compensia also provided general observations about our compensation programs and reviewed and provided input on this Compensation Discussion and Analysis section. Compensia reports directly to the Compensation Committee. During fiscal 2020, Compensia interacted with management at the direction of the Compensation Committee but did not provide any other services for Infinera or its management team. Compensia’s fees were paid by Infinera. The Compensation Committee annually reviews the independence of its compensation consultant and during fiscal 2020 determined that there were no conflicts of interest in connection with Compensia’s work. Determination of CEO Compensation. Compensia provides market data and considerations for the Compensation Committee regarding the amount and form of our CEO’s compensation. As part of this process, the Compensation Committee considers input from the Board and feedback from the Chairman of the Board, in particular with respect to the performance of our CEO. After considering the feedback and recommendations received, all decisions regarding our CEO’s compensation are made by the Compensation Committee, based on its own judgment and after considering the interests of our shareholders, in executive sessions excluding our CEO. Determination of Non-CEO Compensation. As a result of his close working relationship with each of the other NEOs, our CEO is asked to provide his assessment of their performance to the Compensation Committee, including considerations regarding retention and importance of their contributions to Infinera. Our CEO is assisted by our Chief Human Resources Officer in making these assessments. Our CEO then presents his performance assessment of the other NEOs and makes formal recommendations to the Compensation Committee regarding adjustments to base salary, annual cash incentive award opportunities, and equity awards for our NEOs (other than himself). While the Compensation Committee considers the recommendations of our CEO in determining compensation for our other NEOs, ultimately its decisions are based on its own judgment and the interests of our shareholders. None of our NEOs makes any recommendations regarding his or her own compensation and none of our NEOs are present at meetings in which their compensation is determined. Executive Compensation Elements We consider the following to constitute the key elements of compensation for our executive officers: (cid:129) Salary. We pay base salaries to attract, retain and motivate our executive officers for their day-to-day contributions. (cid:129) Annual Incentive Cash Compensation. (cid:129) Historically, we have provided annual incentive cash compensation to link payments to the achievement of our annual financial and/or operational objectives and expect to resume this compensation program in the future. However, for the second half of fiscal 2020, we cancelled this program in connection with our Board’s approval of an updated operating plan in response to impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic. 31 (cid:129) In fiscal 2021, in lieu of incentive cash compensation, we are providing our executive officers other than the CEO with retention equity awards while strategically conserving cash during the continuing COVID-19 pandemic, helping to ensure executive officer and shareholder alignment, as discussed further below. These retention equity awards also vest over a longer period than would be the case for incentive cash compensation to be earned under our normal annual cash bonus program. (cid:129) Long-Term Incentive Compensation. We provide long-term incentive compensation delivered in the form of equity awards to align the interests of our executive officers with those of our shareholders and provide significant motivational and retention value to our executive officers. These are the key elements of our executive compensation program. We believe each is necessary to attract, retain and motivate our executive officers, on whom our success largely depends. In addition, we also provide employee benefits that are generally available to all our employees including our NEOs, and certain severance and “double-trigger” change of control payments and benefits as part of our executive compensation program, as described further below. Allocation of Compensation across Pay Elements In determining how to allocate an NEO’s target total direct compensation opportunity among these various elements, the Compensation Committee considers market-competitive practices for companies of a similar size and with a comparable business focus. Individual retention considerations specific to the individual are also factored in the Compensation Committee’s final determination of target total direct compensation. Equity awards, which for fiscal 2020 consisted of awards of time-based RSUs and performance shares, represented the largest component of our NEOs’ target total direct compensation opportunity. This approach was designed to encourage sustained, long-term performance and to ensure alignment of the interests of our NEOs with those of our shareholders. Consistent with our “pay-for-performance” philosophy, a significant portion of our NEOs’ fiscal 2020 target total direct compensation opportunity was completely “at risk,” including 58% of Mr. Fallon’s target total direct compensation opportunity. We define “at risk” compensation as opportunities for which vesting as well as the level of achievement is contingent upon achievement of specified performance conditions. In fiscal 2020, this included the amended 2020 Bonus Plan and performance share awards, where the value of performance shares is included based on the grant date target value of shares awarded. The following charts show the target total direct compensation mix for fiscal 2020 for Mr. Fallon and our other NEOs, with the value of equity awards determined using grant date fair value. These charts do not include Mr. Jandro’s compensation, as he retired from his role as Senior Vice President, Worldwide Sales on January 3, 2020. These charts reflect decisions made by the Compensation Committee in the first quarter of 2020 and do not include the CEO transition from Mr. Fallon to Mr. Heard effective as of November 23, 2020. FY20 Pay Mix: CEO FY20 Pay Mix: Other NEO Average Performance Shares 41% Base Salary 14% Performance Shares 28% Base Salary 25% Target Bonus 17% Time- Based RSUs 28% Time- Based RSUs 28% 32 Target Bonus 19% Role of the Compensation Peer Group and Market Data In making compensation decisions for our executive officers, the Compensation Committee reviews and analyzes competitive market practices using data drawn from a group of peer companies and the Radford Global Technology survey. In September 2019, the Compensation Committee reviewed the peer group used for executive compensation decision-making for purposes of fiscal 2020 compensation planning. The target selection criteria for the peer group identified in September 2019 and used for fiscal 2020 compensation planning were: (cid:129) Industry: companies in the communications equipment sector and Infinera’s direct competitors, as well as other companies in broader technology sectors; (cid:129) Annual Revenue: $625 million to $2.5 billion; (cid:129) Market Capitalization: $222 million to $3.6 billion; and (cid:129) Location: U.S.-based companies, with a preference for Bay Area headquartered companies. Our peer group for fiscal 2020 compensation planning consisted of the following 14 companies: Ciena Corporation Cirrus Logic, Inc.* Coherent, Inc.* Extreme Networks, Inc. Finisar Corporation II-VI Inc.* Lumentum Holdings Inc. NETGEAR, Inc. NetScout Systems, Inc. OSI Systems, Inc. Plantronics, Inc. Ribbon Communications Inc. Synaptics Incorporated* Viavi Solutions Inc. * Indicates an addition to the recalibrated peer group for fiscal 2020 and to replace companies that were removed due to being acquired or no longer substantially meeting the criteria described above. The Compensation Committee selected the added companies after reviewing the peer group information with Compensia as well as management and observing that each met the target selection criteria as outlined above. Companies removed from the fiscal 2019 peer group included Echostar Corporation (no longer met criteria), Electronics for Imaging, Inc. (acquired), Itron, Inc. (no longer met criteria), and ViaSat, Inc. (no longer met criteria). Given that not all of the peer companies report data for a position comparable to each of our NEOs, the Compensation Committee also reviewed market data derived from the Radford Global Technology survey. In this discussion, where we refer to “market” levels of pay and the “market data,” we are referring to the combined compensation peer group and survey data described above that were then in effect and applicable to our NEOs. Data collected from this updated compensation peer group was considered in negotiating and determining Mr. Walden’s initial compensation in connection with his promotion to become our Senior Vice President, Worldwide Sales, in January 2020 and Mr. Heard’s initial compensation in connection with his promotion to become our CEO in November 2020, in addition to the other factors described below. Use of Market Data For its fiscal 2020 compensation decisions, the Compensation Committee continued to maintain a holistic and flexible approach in its use of market data. The Compensation Committee’s goal is generally to set all elements of compensation within a competitive range, using a balanced approach that does not use rigid percentiles to target pay levels for each compensation element, but instead makes its compensation decisions based on a variety of relevant factors, including those listed below. While the Compensation Committee continues to review and reference market data, the data generally is used to inform the Compensation Committee of market practices to ensure that our executive compensation program remains within a generally competitive range of our peers. In addition to the market data, several other factors are taken into account in setting the amount of each NEO’s target total direct compensation opportunity. These factors include: (cid:129) Recruitment, retention and historical factors. The Compensation Committee reviews existing NEO compensation and retention levels relative to estimated replacement cost with respect to the scope, responsibilities and skills required of the particular position. 33 (cid:129) Lack of directly comparable data for some of our key roles. Compensation data for some of our key positions are often not explicitly reported by companies in our compensation peer group or survey data. This results in limited sample sizes and/or inconclusive data that can be misleading if targeting a specific percentile for market positioning. (cid:129) Market positioning may be distorted by the source of the data. Certain elements of compensation reported from one source can be consistently higher or lower than the data collected from another, given differences in methods and samples used by each source to collect market data. Given this variability and volatility within the market data, the Compensation Committee has determined that targeting pay levels at specific percentiles of this data could result in outcomes that do not align with the internal value and strategic importance of various roles at Infinera. (cid:129) Desire to account for other factors not captured in the market data. As discussed below, the Compensation Committee also considers several qualitative factors. Relevant Qualitative Factors In addition to our uses of competitive market data as described above, the Compensation Committee considers a range of subjective and qualitative factors when making compensation decisions for our NEOs, including: (cid:129) The role the executive officer plays and the importance of such individual’s contributions to our ability to execute on our business strategy and to achieve our strategic objectives; (cid:129) Each executive officer’s tenure, skills and experience; (cid:129) The responsibilities and particular nature of the functions performed or managed by the executive officer; (cid:129) Our CEO’s recommendations and his assessment of each executive officer’s performance (other than his own performance), and with respect to the CEO’s performance, assessment by the Board; (cid:129) The value of unvested equity awards held by each executive officer and in comparison to other members of our executive management team and senior employees; (cid:129) Internal pay equity across the executive management team; (cid:129) The impact of our compensation decisions on key financial and other measures such as our equity award “burn rate”; (cid:129) Our overall performance as compared to internal plans and external benchmarks; (cid:129) The potential impact on shareholder dilution of our compensation decisions relative to peers and historical practices; and (cid:129) Competitive labor market pressures and the likely cost, difficulty and impact on our business and strategic objectives that would be encountered in recruiting a replacement for the role filled by each of our NEOs. The Compensation Committee does not assign relative weights or rankings to any of these factors and does not solely use any quantitative formula, target percentile or multiple for establishing compensation among the executive officers or in relation to the market data. Instead, the Compensation Committee relies upon its members’ knowledge and judgment in assessing the various qualitative and quantitative inputs it receives regarding each individual and makes compensation decisions accordingly. Fallon Transition Agreement On August 5, 2020, we announced that Mr. Fallon would transition from his position as CEO and that Mr. Heard would become our CEO on a date to be later determined. This change in our leadership followed Mr. Fallon’s 16 years of service with our Company, including ten years as our CEO. On November 23, 2020, Mr. Heard was appointed as CEO and a Class II director, and Mr. Fallon transitioned to an advisory role that would be in effect through February 1, 2021. Following his termination of services as an advisor, Mr. Fallon continued to serve as a member of our Board. 34 Mr. Fallon’s transition was not treated as a termination of employment by the Company and did not trigger any of the severance benefits included in his change of control agreement. To support a smooth transition of leadership, our Compensation Committee approved our entering into a Transition Agreement with Mr. Fallon. The Transition Agreement provided that Mr. Fallon would continue as an advisor through February 1, 2021 to assist with the transition of his duties and continue to receive his compensation at the level to which it was reduced in May 2020, but would not be eligible for a bonus for any services he would provide in 2021. Further, the Transition Agreement provided that upon termination of his services as an advisor, the vesting of all of Mr. Fallon’s outstanding restricted stock units would accelerate and his performance share award granted in 2018 would remain outstanding and would be paid (and shares issued) to the extent the goals were actually achieved during the performance period ending December 31, 2020. The treatment of this performance share award was approved with consideration given to Mr. Fallon’s service as our CEO or advisor for the full three-year performance period. In addition, Mr. Fallon’s options to purchase Company common stock, all of which were fully vested at the time of the transition, would continue in effect in accordance with their terms and conditions. At the time of his transition, Mr. Fallon also held unvested performance share awards that had been granted in 2019 and 2020 and would have been eligible to continue to vest during his ongoing service as a member of our Board. Pursuant to the Transition Agreement, these performance share awards held by Mr. Fallon would terminate and be cancelled. Under the Transition Agreement, Mr. Fallon waived all rights to any other compensation or severance. Heard Promotion Our Compensation Committee, in consultation with its independent compensation consultant, Compensia, reviewed market data to determine an appropriate compensation package for Mr. Heard in his new role as CEO. In connection with Mr. Heard’s promotion, the Compensation Committee determined to increase his base salary from $520,000 to $700,000, increase his target bonus from 90% to 125% of salary, and approved a grant of 250,000 RSUs with a grant date value of approximately $2.1 million. Also in connection with his promotion, and in light of the cost reduction measures being taken by us to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, Mr. Heard waived his right to a potential payout of $650,000 under the 2020 integration bonus established earlier in the year by the Compensation Committee. Following these increases, Mr. Heard’s target total cash was positioned below the 25th percentile of our compensation peer group. The Compensation Committee considered the magnitude of the promotion RSU award in the context of Mr. Heard’s total unvested holdings, the competitive market data for the CEO role among companies in our compensation peer group, and the expectation that Mr. Heard would be eligible to receive ongoing annual equity compensation in early 2021, including a mix of time- and performance-based equity that would be aligned with our approach to our broader executive compensation policies and practices. In March 2021, reflecting the Company’s rigor of pay-for-performance, the Compensation Committee approved a grant of equity for Mr. Heard with a target value between the 25th and 50th percentiles of our compensation peer group and with 60% of the target value delivered in the form of performance-based equity that is eligible to vest based on our achievement of revenue and adjusted operating income goals. Fiscal 2020 Compensation Base Salaries For fiscal 2020, the Compensation Committee reviewed the base salaries in March 2020 for each of our NEOs. The Compensation Committee approved an increase to the base salary of Mr. Fallon, our CEO at the time, which restored his base salary to its level as of October 2017, prior to its reduction as part of a corporate restructuring program. At that time, the Compensation Committee did not change base salaries for the other NEOs after taking into consideration the market data provided by Compensia and the relatively recent start dates of Ms. Erba and Mr. Walden with respect to their new positions with Infinera. In May 2020, with Infinera and others in our industry facing macroeconomic uncertainty and related challenges from the COVID-19 pandemic, the Compensation Committee proactively adjusted the executive compensation program by reducing the salaries of certain NEOs by 20%-25% from their then current salary levels. This action, which was part of Infinera’s overall cost-cutting initiatives discussed earlier, helped reduce expenses, preserve cash and better position us to deal with changes in the business environment. 35 Effective December 2020, noting the improved financial outlook for Infinera in the second half of fiscal 2020, the Compensation Committee determined that it would be prudent to restore the base salaries of our NEOs that were subject to reduction earlier in the year, other than Messrs. Fallon and Heard, to their pre-reduction levels from May 2020. The following table shows the annual base salary for each of our NEOs for fiscal 2019, as in effect upon approval by the Compensation Committee in March 2020, and as reduced effective as of May 2020, as well as the percentage reduction of salary that applied from May 2020 through December 2020: Name Fiscal 2019 Annual Base Salary Fiscal 2020 Annual Base Salary Percentage Reduction as of May 2020(1) Annual Base Salary as of May 2020 David W.

(2) Mr. Heard was promoted to CEO effective as of November 23, 2020. (3) Mr. Heard’s annual base salary was increased to $700,000 effective as of December 5, 2020 in connection with his promotion to CEO.

(5) Upon becoming an advisor to Infinera effective as of November 23, 2020, Mr. Fallon’s annual base salary remained at its existing level, reflecting the COVID-19 salary reduction, and was not increased in December 2020 when the COVID-19 salary reduction was rescinded. (6) Mr. Walden was promoted to Senior Vice President, Worldwide Sales, effective as of January 5, 2020. (7) Mr. Jandro retired from his role as Senior Vice President, Worldwide Sales, effective as of January 3, 2020. Performance-Based Incentive Cash Compensation (2020 Bonus Plan) Target Bonus Opportunities. In March 2020, the Compensation Committee reviewed the target bonus opportunities (which are expressed as a percentage of base salary) for fiscal 2020 for each of our NEOs, and determined that the target bonus opportunities for our NEOs would remain the same in fiscal 2020 as in fiscal 2019. Mr. Walden’s target bonus opportunity was established in January 2020 at the time he was promoted to Senior Vice President, Worldwide Sales. In November 2020, the Compensation Committee determined to increase Mr. Heard’s target bonus opportunity to 125% in connection with his promotion to CEO. In considering the increased target bonus opportunity for Mr. Heard, the Compensation Committee considered the scope of Mr. Heard’s new role as well as the competitive market data provided by Compensia.

(2) Ms. Erba’s target bonus opportunity for fiscal 2019 was established as part of her new hire package in August 2019. As part of her offer letter and in light of her joining us in the latter part of the fiscal year, Ms. Erba was guaranteed a bonus under the 2019 Bonus Plan equal to 100% of her target bonus for fiscal 2019 prorated based on her length of service during fiscal 2019. 36 (3) Mr. Teichmann’s target bonus opportunity was established as part of his new hire package in April 2019. As part of his offer letter, Mr. Teichmann was guaranteed a bonus under the 2019 Bonus Plan equal to at least 50% of his target bonus for fiscal 2019 prorated based on his length of service during fiscal 2019. (4) Mr. Jandro retired from his role as Senior Vice President, Worldwide Sales, effective as of January 3, 2020. 2020 Bonus Plan Design. In March 2020, the Compensation Committee approved a 2020 Bonus Plan that was applicable to our NEOs. Given the challenges facing us as we entered fiscal 2020 and to address some of the concerns regarding substantially limited visibility for the year, the Compensation Committee determined to set the 2020 Bonus Plan to allow for bonuses to be payable upon achievement of half-year performance metrics. The bonus opportunity for the first half of fiscal 2020 was weighted at 40% of the named executive officer’s target annual bonus opportunity, and the bonus opportunity for the second half of fiscal 2020 was weighted at 60% of the named executive officer’s target annual bonus opportunity. Performance goals for H1 2020 bonuses were established in March 2020 and the performance goals for H2 2020 were intended to be determined during the third quarter of 2020. Performance Goals for H1 2020 Bonuses. In establishing performance goals for the first half of the year, the Compensation Committee believed that non-GAAP operating income should remain a key metric for our shareholders, supporting a balanced approach to near-term and long-term growth and aligning the interests of our executive officers with those of our shareholders. Taking this into account, the 2020 Bonus Plan approved in March 2020 established an opportunity for an H1 2020 bonus between 50% and 100% of target for non-GAAP operating income losses of $20.8 million (threshold) and $7 million (target), respectively. No H1 2020 bonus would be earned for a non-GAAP operating income loss that exceeded $20.8 million, and the percentage of the target bonus earned would be interpolated on a linear basis for results between threshold and target. The H1 2020 bonus performance metric could also be overachieved at up to 150% of target, with an additional requirement that Infinera achieve non-GAAP profitability for the first half of fiscal 2020. Finally, the measurement of the H1 2020 performance metrics, as well as the overachievement requirement of non-GAAP profitability, would take into account the cost to fund the 2020 Bonus Plan, such that the 2020 Bonus Plan would need to be self-funding. This bonus plan design was intended to balance retention and motivational objectives and a desire to maintain alignment with shareholders with a reasonable profile of executive compensation as we worked to reestablish profitability. For purposes of the 2020 Bonus Plan, “non-GAAP operating income” was calculated excluding acquisition- related deferred revenue and inventory adjustments, other customer related charges, non-cash stock-based compensation expenses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition and integration costs, restructuring and other related costs, litigation charges, and certain COVID-19 related costs. For a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP operating income for fiscal 2020, please see Appendix A to this Proxy Statement. H1 2020 Bonus Plan Results. Our non-GAAP operating income loss of $37.0 million for the first half of fiscal 2020 fell below the threshold established under the H1 2020 portion of our 2020 Bonus Plan. As a result, our NEOs did not earn a bonus for the first half of fiscal 2020 under the 2020 Bonus Plan. H2 2020 Bonuses. After completion of the first half of fiscal 2020 and after taking into account the macroeconomic uncertainty and projected impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Infinera’s business and financial results in the following months, management prepared and our Board approved an updated operating plan for the second half of fiscal 2020 (“H2 Operating Plan”) that reflected a decision to cancel the H2 2020 portion of the 2020 Bonus Plan in order to proactively manage Infinera’s cash and financial condition. This decision was in addition to the actions taken in May 2020 to institute pay reductions for our NEOs, senior executives and members of our Board. 2020 Integration Bonus. In March 2020, the Compensation Committee approved the objectives for Mr. Heard’s 2020 integration bonus opportunity. The integration bonus for 2020 continued the Compensation Committee’s approach in 2019 of incentivizing the successful integration of Coriant following its acquisition by Infinera in late 2018. The performance goals for the 2020 integration bonus for Mr. Heard were tied to completion of key integration activities that built on the integration efforts already achieved in 2019. The Compensation Committee believed this bonus opportunity was an appropriate incentive to focus efforts on a critical project to drive down costs and for the long-term success of Infinera. 37 The Compensation Committee approved a target integration bonus opportunity of $650,000 for Mr. Heard and performance goals under the bonus that were allocated to different weightings as set forth in the table below. Full achievement of a performance goal resulted in payout of, and was capped at, 100% for that weighted portion of the integration bonus.

In March 2021, the Compensation Committee determined that we will provide our NEOs, other than the CEO, with retention equity awards in lieu of incentive cash compensation. This approach will allow us to strategically conserve cash during the continuing COVID-19 pandemic while helping to ensure executive officer and shareholder alignment. These retention equity awards are intended to provide an award value at the time of grant approximately equivalent to the target bonus opportunity for each NEO, under our annual performance-based incentive cash program used in prior fiscal years, discounted by 25%. The retention grant for Mr. Walden is intended to provide an award value at the time of grant approximately equivalent to 25% of his 2021 target performance-based incentive cash opportunity, discounted by 25%. The retention equity awards vest over a longer period than has been the case for incentive cash compensation to be earned under prior annual incentive cash bonus programs, with one-half of the RSUs vesting after 12 months and the remaining shares vesting ratably over the next four quarters. Long-Term Incentive Compensation Our long-term incentive compensation opportunities are delivered in the form of equity awards. Under the 2016 Plan, the Compensation Committee grants equity awards to eligible employees, including our NEOs. All awards to our NEOs were made pursuant to the 2016 Plan. Annual equity awards for NEOs are generally approved by the Compensation Committee during the first open trading window of each new calendar year. The Compensation Committee actively monitors our annual aggregate equity utilization as measured by our burn rate. Equity Compensation Design. The Compensation Committee believes that it is in the best interests of Infinera and our shareholders to grant a combination of time-based and performance-based equity awards to senior level employees, including our NEOs. It also believes that our performance-based equity awards foster a “pay-for-performance” culture and multi-year vesting schedules create longer-term incentives that maintain alignment of the interests of our NEOs with those of our shareholders. Our NEOs benefit from these equity awards based on our sustained performance over time and the ability of our NEOs to create the results that drive shareholder value. 38 In determining the appropriate mix of such equity awards, the Compensation Committee considered how each equity vehicle supports our compensation strategy as follows: Type of Award Performance Share Award Description Why It Is Used (cid:129) Provides the opportunity to earn (cid:129) Supports pay-for-performance shares of Infinera common stock upon the achievement of pre-established performance objectives.

(cid:129) Provides a direct incentive for future performance. (cid:129) Useful in recruiting new executives. Target Award Size. In determining the size of these annual equity awards, the Compensation Committee considered the factors described above in the sections entitled “Use of Market Data” and “Relevant Qualitative Factors,” with particular attention to market data, internal equity considerations, the potential dilutive impact of the equity awards and the amount and value of unvested equity awards held by each of our NEOs. The Compensation Committee believed a combination of time-based and performance-based equity awards promote close alignment of the interests of our NEOs with those of our shareholders. The Compensation Committee first determined the target value of long-term incentive compensation for each executive. The number of RSUs and performance shares granted to each executive was then determined based on an average stock price of $8.00 per share and assuming a 60% allocation of target value into performance shares for Mr. Fallon, our CEO at the time, and a 50% allocation of target value into performance shares for our other NEOs. Mr. Walden’s allocation was determined as part of his compensation increase in connection with his promotion to Senior Vice President, Worldwide Sales, in January 2020. The target value approved by the Compensation Committee differs from the value of equity reported in the Summary Compensation Table below. The following table sets forth the equity awards granted to our NEOs in March 2020 unless otherwise noted.

(2) Mr. Jandro retired from his role as Senior Vice President, Worldwide Sales, effective as of January 3, 2020. In November 2020, Mr. Heard was granted a CEO promotion grant that was a time-based RSU award covering 250,000 shares. Because Mr. Heard’s promotion was effective very late in fiscal 2020, the Compensation Committee determined to award him this CEO promotion grant of 250,000 RSUs and to delay his performance share award until the normal annual equity grant cycle for our executives in the first quarter of fiscal 2021. This allowed Mr. Heard’s performance objectives to be aligned with those of our senior executives. The RSU’s shares 39 vest over a three-year period, with one-third of the underlying shares vesting on December 5, 2021, and one-twelfth of the underlying shares vesting quarterly thereafter, subject to the Mr. Heard’s continued service to Infinera through each applicable vesting date. In finalizing the terms of this grant, the Compensation Committee considered the scope of Mr. Heard’s new role with us as well as competitive market data provided by Compensia. Fallon Transition Agreement. Mr. Fallon’s Transition Agreement provided that, upon termination of his services as an advisor to Infinera, the vesting of all of Mr. Fallon’s outstanding RSUs would accelerate. Mr. Fallon ceased providing advisor services in February 2021, resulting in the acceleration of all of Mr. Fallon’s outstanding RSUs. 2020 Performance Share Awards. In March 2020, the Compensation Committee granted annual equity awards for fiscal 2020 in the form of a time-based RSU award and a performance share award to each of our NEOs, except for Mr. Walden, who was only granted a performance share award due to having recently been granted a time-based RSU award in connection with his January 2020 promotion to SVP, Worldwide Sales. Determining the Performance Goal. In determining the performance criteria for the 2020 performance share awards for our NEOs, the Compensation Committee considered the continued criticality of increasing revenue and reducing operating expenses, including the continued efforts of integrating Coriant with Infinera. The Compensation Committee also considered that the new performance share awards would be designed to work in concert with grants made in previous years that will have overlapping performance cycles with the awards granted in 2020. In fiscal 2018, the Company granted relative TSR performance awards to all our NEOs that continued to have performance periods through the end of fiscal 2020. Fiscal 2019 awards were structured differently to encourage executives to accelerate our return to sustained profitability and, for our CEO, to drive significant gains on our share price. Accordingly, the Compensation Committee decided that the total stockholder return-related performance goals used in prior years under the performance-based awards would be replaced for awards in fiscal 2020 with achievement of non-GAAP gross margin. Under these 2020 performance share awards, non-GAAP gross margin is required to be achieved above a specified threshold either over a full fiscal year or four consecutive quarters during the three-year performance period that began with fiscal 2020 and ends with fiscal 2022 (the “2020 PSA Performance Period”). In establishing the performance goal for our NEOs’ 2020 performance share awards, the Compensation Committee reflected that the prior awards would continue to help focus our executives on relative performance and long-term sustained value creation for our shareholders, while the 2020 awards would provide goals targeted at specific financial objectives that ultimately tie to shareholder value. The Compensation Committee believes the overlapping, multiyear performance period design provides our NEOs with significant incentives to achieve various objectives that are important for our long-term success. Non-GAAP Gross Margin Performance Criteria. Under the terms of the performance share awards for fiscal 2020 (the “GM PSA”), the Compensation Committee established the 2020 PSA Performance Period in which 100% of the shares subject to this award will become eligible to vest based upon our achievement of a stretch non-GAAP gross margin goal (the “Gross Margin Goal”) for: (i) Any of fiscal years 2020, 2021 or 2022 (the “Fiscal Year Period”); or (ii) Each fiscal quarter of Infinera in four consecutive fiscal quarters of Infinera completed during the 2020 PSA Performance Period (each fiscal quarter of the Company occurring during the 2020 PSA Performance Period, a “Fiscal Quarter”). For purposes of the GM PSAs, “non-GAAP gross margin” was calculated excluding acquisition-related deferred revenue and inventory adjustments, other customer related charges, non-cash stock-based compensation expenses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition and integration costs, restructuring and other related costs, litigation charges, and certain COVID-19 related costs. For a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP gross margin for fiscal 2020, please see Appendix A to this Proxy Statement. The GM PSA shall vest upon the determination by the Compensation Committee of the achievement of the performance metrics and are subject to each NEO’s continued service to Infinera through each applicable vesting date. The Gross Margin Goal will be measured on a non-GAAP basis, as reported in our earnings release as filed 40 on Form 8-K with respect to any Fiscal Quarter or Fiscal Year Period, as applicable. Once the Gross Margin Goal has been achieved (as determined and certified by the Compensation Committee), shares underlying the GM PSA will vest pro rata through the end of the fiscal period during which achievement occurs. Any remaining shares under the GM PSA will then vest quarterly over the remaining portion of the 2020 PSA Performance Period, subject to continuous service by each NEO. In the event of our change in control that occurs during the 2020 PSA Performance Period, the GM PSA will vest at the target level. Results of Performance Shares Through Fiscal 2020. We did not achieve the Gross Margin Goal for fiscal 2020. As a result, as of the end of fiscal 2020, the target number of shares subject to the GM PSAs granted to each NEO remained unearned and outstanding. These shares are eligible to be earned and vest if the Gross Margin Goal is achieved during the remainder of the 2020 PSA Performance Period through the end of our fiscal 2022. Pursuant to Mr.Fallon’s Transition Agreement, his performance share awards for fiscal 2020 terminated and were cancelled upon termination of his services as an advisor to Infinera in February 2021. Outstanding Performance Share Awards Granted in Prior Fiscal Years. The following table provides information regarding outstanding performance share awards granted prior to fiscal 2020 that were eligible to be earned in fiscal 2020 by our NEOs based on the achievement of performance with respect to relative TSR and non-GAAP operating income, including the performance requirements and number of shares of Infinera common stock earned through fiscal 2020.

This award is subject to a payout of between 0% and 200% of the target number of shares based on our relative performance against the Index Companies for that period, with 100% of the target number of shares allocated to the performance. Our TSR performance for the third performance period finished with a ranking of 12 out of 22 Index Companies (48th percentile) listed in the S&P Index. As a result, 95.24% of the target number of shares of our common stock allocated to the third performance period became eligible to vest. For the three-year performance period ended December 26, 2020, the start price was the 60-day average (of our closing stock price or the index value, as applicable) leading up to and inclusive of December 30, 2017 and the end price was the 60-day average (of our closing stock price or the index value, as applicable) leading up to and inclusive of December 26, 2020. In fiscal 2019, the Compensation Committee granted to the NEOs in the table above a performance share award that can be earned during fiscal 2020 through fiscal 2022 based on our achievement of positive operating income, measured on a non-GAAP basis (the “Profitability Goal”), either (a) for a full fiscal year or (b) on an average basis, for any four consecutive fiscal quarters. We did not achieve the Profitability Goal for fiscal 2020, as our non-GAAP operating loss for the fiscal year was $6.3 million. As a result, as of the end of fiscal 2020, the target number of shares subject to these performance share awards remained unearned and outstanding. In the event of our change in control that occurs during the 2020 PSA Performance Period, the GM PSA would vest at the target level. In the case of Mr. Fallon, pursuant to his Transition Agreement, these performance share awards terminated and were cancelled upon termination of his services as an advisor to Infinera in February 2021. In fiscal 2019, the Compensation Committee granted to Mr. Fallon a performance share award that will vest if our stock price is equal to or greater than $10.00 per share for each trading day during a ninety-calendar day period occurring during a three-year performance period beginning on the grant date. Our stock price did not trigger vesting of this performance share award in fiscal 2020. As a result, as of the end of fiscal 2020, the target number of shares subject to this performance share 41 award remained unearned and outstanding. In the event of our change in control that occurs during the performance period under this performance share award, the performance period would be shortened and a final measurement of performance achievement would be determined, including a determination whether the per share consideration in the change in control is equal to or greater than $10.00 per share. Any portion of the award for which performance has been achieved would vest immediately prior to the change in control subject to continued service through the change in control date. Pursuant to Mr. Fallon’s Transition Agreement, these performance share awards terminated and were cancelled upon termination of his services as an advisor to Infinera in February 2021. Employee Benefits and Perquisites Generally, our NEOs are only eligible to receive the same benefits as our U.S. salaried employees except with respect to accrued paid time off as explained below. Infinera and the Compensation Committee believe this approach is reasonable and consistent with the overall compensation objectives to attract and retain employees. These benefits include medical, dental, vision and disability benefits, a Section 401(k) plan, and other plans and programs, including the 2007 ESPP, made available to other eligible employees in the applicable country of residence. We provide a matching contribution of up to $2,500 under the Section 401(k) plan that is applicable to all eligible participants, including our NEOs. Employee benefits and perquisites are reviewed periodically to ensure that benefit levels remain competitive, but are not included in the Compensation Committee’s annual determination of the total compensation for each of our NEOs. All exempt U.S. employees, at any U.S. work location, participate in our “As Needed” FTO Program (“Flexible Time Off”). Under this program, these employees may schedule FTO as they see fit and as business necessity allows, although they must continue to meet all job expectations and remain responsible for ensuring appropriate coverage for the time they will be out of the office. Under this program, FTO does not accrue for these employees. From time to time, Infinera may provide other benefits based on the particular circumstances and any business needs (for example, in order to recruit an individual to join the Company). In 2020, Mr. Heard received a relocation benefit of $120,385 under the relocation agreement he entered into with Infinera in 2017 as part of his COO new hire package. In 2020, Mr. Walden received a relocation benefit of $90,000 under an agreement he entered into with Infinera following his promotion to Senior Vice President, Worldwide Sales. Additional Information Regarding Our Compensation Practices The estimated payments and benefits that would be received by each NEO in connection with a qualifying termination of employment, as described immediately below, are presented in the section entitled “Estimated Payments and Benefits upon Termination, Change of Control or Death/Disability” below. Change of Control Payments and Benefits The Compensation Committee considers maintaining a stable and effective management team to be essential to protecting the best interests of Infinera and its shareholders. Accordingly, Infinera has entered into Change of Control Agreements (the “COC Agreements”) with each of our NEOs to encourage their continued attention, dedication and continuity with respect to their roles and responsibilities without the distraction that may arise from the possibility or occurrence of a change of control of Infinera. The current terms of these COC Agreements are included below. As described above, in connection with his transition as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Fallon entered into the Transition Agreement that provides that upon termination of his services as an advisor, the vesting of all of his outstanding restricted stock units would accelerate and his performance share award granted in 2018 would remain outstanding and would be paid (and shares issued) to the extent the goals were actually achieved during the performance period ending December 31, 2020. In addition, Mr. Fallon waived all rights to any other compensation or severance. An NEO (other than Mr. Fallon) will receive payments and benefits under the COC Agreement only if his or her employment is terminated without “cause,” or by him or her as a result of a “constructive termination” (as more fully described in the section entitled “Estimated Payments and Benefits upon Termination, Change of Control or Death/Disability” below), beginning on the date three (3) months prior to the first change of control to occur following the effective date of the COC Agreement and ending on the date eighteen (18) months following a 42 change of control of Infinera. The Compensation Committee believes that this “double-trigger” structure provides an appropriate balance between the corporate objectives described above and the potential compensation payable to each NEO upon a change of control. The Compensation Committee also believes that should Infinera engage in any discussions or negotiations relating to a change of control that the Board believes is in the best interests of our shareholders, these COC Agreements will help to ensure that our NEOs remain focused on the consummation of such potential transaction, without significant distraction or concern regarding their personal circumstances, such as continued employment. The following terms apply with respect to each of the NEOs (other than Mr. Fallon) if Infinera undergoes a change of control and the NEO’s employment is terminated without cause or as a result of a constructive termination during the Change of Control Period (that is, the period beginning three months prior to, and ending eighteen months after, a change of control), subject to such individual entering into and not revoking a release of claims in our favor within 60 days of the termination date: (cid:129) 100% of all outstanding equity awards will vest (awards based on the achievement of performance criteria will vest as to 100% of the amount of the award assuming the performance criteria have been achieved at target levels, unless otherwise provided in the agreement relating to such performance-based award); (cid:129) Our CEO will be paid a lump sum severance payment (less applicable tax withholdings) equal to two times his annual base salary and our other NEOs will be paid a lump sum severance payment (less applicable tax withholdings) equal to one and one-half times their annual base salary; (cid:129) Our CEO will be paid a lump sum severance payment (less applicable tax withholdings) equal to two times his annual target incentive bonus amount and our other NEOs will be paid a lump sum severance payment (less applicable tax withholdings) equal to one and one-half times their annual target incentive bonus amount; and (cid:129) Our CEO will be reimbursed for premiums under COBRA for a period of up to 24 months and our other NEOs will be reimbursed for premiums under COBRA for a period of up to 18 months. Each COC Agreement will have an initial term of three years commencing on the effective date of such COC Agreement. On the third anniversary of the effective date, such COC Agreement will renew automatically for an additional, one-year term unless either party provides the other party with written notice of nonrenewal at least one year prior to the date of automatic renewal. In addition, the award agreements of certain performance share awards granted to our NEOs specify additional terms that apply to such awards in the event of our change in control, as described further above in the section titled “Long-Term Incentive Compensation.” Executive Severance Policy In addition to the change of control-related payments and benefits discussed above, the Compensation Committee has taken appropriate steps to provide competitive post-employment compensation arrangements that promote the continued attention, dedication and continuity of the members of our senior management team, including our NEOs (other than Mr. Fallon), and enable us to continue to recruit talented senior executive officers. Accordingly, the Compensation Committee has adopted an executive severance policy, under which the following severance payments and benefits will become payable if the employment of one of our NEOs is terminated by us without “cause” (as defined in the policy) subject to such individual entering into and not revoking a release of claims in our favor: (cid:129) Our CEO will be paid a lump sum severance payment equal to one and one-half times his annual base salary, and our other NEOs will be paid a lump sum severance payment equal to their annual base salary; and (cid:129) Our CEO will be reimbursed for premiums under COBRA for a period of 18 months, and our other NEOs will be reimbursed for premiums under COBRA for a period of 12 months. If an NEO’s employment with Infinera is less than one year, the amount of severance payable to such individual will be equal to the lesser of (x) the base salary paid to such individual during his or her period of employment, or (y) the severance amount set forth above. 43 Acceleration of Equity Awards upon Death or Disability In addition, all awards granted under our equity incentive plans permit accelerated vesting in the event of an employee’s death or terminal illness (with exceptions in certain circumstances). Because we do not have any policy with respect to severance payments or benefits in the event of an employee’s death or disability other than certain disability and life insurance benefits generally available to our employees, the Compensation Committee believes that in the event of an employee’s death or terminal illness, it would be appropriate to provide the accelerated vesting of his or her RSU awards, performance share awards and stock options. Equity Grant Policy Under our Equity Grant Policy, the Compensation Committee has delegated to a Subcommittee the authority to grant new hire, promotional and retention equity awards to non-executive employees pursuant to certain pre-approved guidelines. At this time, the sole member of the Subcommittee is our CEO. The Subcommittee approves the award by written consent on the second Monday of each month to approve new hire, promotional and retention equity awards. Annual focal equity awards are approved by the Compensation Committee. The delegation to the Subcommittee does not include the authority to grant equity awards to new employees who are or are reasonably expected to become Section 16 Officers or to current Section 16 Officers. Executive Clawback Policy We maintain an Executive Clawback Policy that applies to our Section 16 Officers (which includes each of our NEOs) and directors. Pursuant to this policy, the Compensation Committee has the authority to seek: (cid:129) Repayment of any cash incentive payment; (cid:129) Cancellation of unvested, unexercised or unreleased equity awards; and (cid:129) Repayment of any compensation earned on previously exercised or released equity awards, where such payments, equity awards and/or compensation earned on previously exercised or released cash incentive payments and equity awards was predicated on financial results that were augmented by fraud, embezzlement, gross negligence or deliberate disregard of applicable rules resulting in significant monetary loss, damage or injury to Infinera (the “Excess Compensation”), whether or not such activity resulted in a financial restatement. The Compensation Committee shall have sole discretion under this policy, consistent with any applicable statutory requirements, to seek reimbursement for any Excess Compensation paid or received by a Section 16 Officer or director for up to a 12-month period prior to the date of the Compensation Committee action to require reimbursement of the Excess Compensation. Further, following a restatement of our financial statements, we will recover any compensation received by our CEO and CFO that is required to be recovered by Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. For purposes of this policy, Excess Compensation will be measured as the positive difference, if any, between the compensation earned by a Section 16 Officer or director and the compensation that would have been earned by a Section 16 Officer or director had the fraud, embezzlement, gross negligence or deliberate disregard of applicable rules resulting in significant monetary loss, damage or injury to Infinera not occurred. Stock Ownership Policy The Board believes that it is important to link the interests of our NEOs to those of our shareholders. Our Stock Ownership Policy requires our non-employee directors and Section 16 Officers (which includes each of our NEOs) to accumulate and hold a minimum number of shares of Infinera common stock within three years of the later of (i) the effective date of the policy or (ii) the date of appointment of the director or appointment/promotion of the Section 16 Officer. As of the Record Date, each of our Section 16 Officers and the non-employee members of the Board has either satisfied these ownership guidelines or had time remaining to do so. The specific Infinera stock ownership requirements for our Section 16 Officers and non-employee directors are as follows: (cid:129) CEO: (cid:129) CFO: (cid:129) Other NEOs: (cid:129) Non-employee directors: 4x annual base salary 2x annual base salary 1x annual base salary 4x annual cash retainer for annual Board service 44 Shares of Infinera common stock that count towards satisfaction of this policy include: (i) shares owned outright by the Section 16 Officer or non-employee director or his or her immediate family members residing in the same household; (ii) shares held in trust for the benefit of the Section 16 Officer or non-employee director or his or her family; and (iii) shares subject to vested, unexercised, in-the-money stock options (the “spread” or “intrinsic value” of options). The value of a share of Infinera common stock is measured on the last day of the fiscal year as the greater of (i) the closing price on the date of calculation or (ii) the purchase price actually paid by the person for such share of Infinera common stock (for the avoidance of doubt, the purchase price for shares of Infinera common stock subject to RSU awards, performance share awards and other similar full value awards is zero). Anti-Hedging Policy Under our Insider Trading Policy, we prohibit our employees, including our NEOs, and Board members, from hedging the risk associated with ownership of shares of Infinera common stock and other securities. Anti-Pledging Policy Under our Insider Trading Policy, we prohibit our NEOs and directors from pledging any Infinera securities as collateral for a loan. Tax and Accounting Treatment of Compensation Prior to 2018, Section 162(m) of the Code generally limited the tax deductibility of compensation paid to the CEO and each of the next three most highly compensated executive officers (excluding the CFO) that exceeded $1 million in any taxable year unless the compensation over $1 million qualified as “performance-based” within the meaning of Section 162(m). The ability to rely on the “performance-based” compensation exception under Section 162(m) was eliminated in 2017 and the $1 million limitation on deductibility generally was expanded to include any individuals serving as the CEO or CFO during the tax year, the next three most highly compensated executive officers during the tax year and any other individual who was considered a covered employee for any prior tax year beginning after 2016. Thus, we generally will not be able to take a deduction for any compensation paid to our NEOs in excess of $1 million unless the compensation qualifies for transition relief applicable to certain arrangements in place on November 2, 2017. We cannot guarantee that any compensation payable to our NEOs will qualify for the transition relief or that the compensation will ultimately be deductible. Historically, the Compensation Committee had not adopted a formal policy regarding tax deductibility of compensation paid to our CEO and other senior executive officers. Nonetheless, the Compensation Committee intends to maintain an approach to executive compensation that strongly links pay to performance. We account for the equity compensation awarded to our executive officers and other employees under ASC 718, which requires us to estimate and record an expense for each award of equity compensation over the service period of the award. Accounting rules also require us to record cash compensation as an expense at the time the obligation is incurred. COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis with management. Based on its review and discussions with management, the Compensation Committee has recommended to the Board that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Proxy Statement.

J t r e b o R (1) The closing price of our common stock as of the last trading day prior to our fiscal year end, December 24, 2020, was $10.97 per share, which was used as the value of our common stock in the calculations. (2) The remaining unvested portion of this RSU award vests in its entirety on July 5, 2021, subject to Mr. Heard’s continued service to Infinera through each applicable vesting date. (3) These RSU awards are scheduled to vest in annual installments with one-fourth of the underlying shares vesting on May 5 of each of 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022, subject to each NEO’s continued service to Infinera through each applicable vesting date. (4) This performance share award has three performance periods, with one-third (1/3) of the target number of performance- based awards eligible to vest based on our one-year TSR relative to the TSR of each of the Index Companies listed in the S&P Networking Index, one-third (1/3) based on our two-year TSR relative to the TSR of each of the Index Companies, and one-third (1/3) based on our three-year TSR relative to the to the TSR of each of the Index Companies. For purposes of calculating TSR performance for Infinera and each of the Index Companies under these performance share awards, the baseline value for our relative TSR calculations is the 60-day average closing price of our common stock and each of the Index Companies leading up to and inclusive of December 30, 2017, which was the last day of fiscal 2017. TSR for Infinera and each of the Index Companies is then calculated by comparing the average closing price of our common stock and each of the Index Companies to this baseline value for the final 60 days of our fiscal 2018, 2019 and 2020. (5) This RSU award is scheduled to vest in annual installments with one-fourth of the underlying shares vesting on October 5 of each of 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022, subject to Mr. Heard’s continued service to Infinera through each applicable vesting date. (6) This performance share award can be earned based on the performance of our achievement of a positive operating income, measured on a non-GAAP basis, in any of fiscal years 2019, 2020 or 2021, or in each of four (4) consecutive fiscal quarters completed during fiscal 2019 through fiscal 2021. (7) These RSU awards are scheduled to vest in annual installments with one-third of the underlying shares vesting on May 5 of each of 2020, 2021 and 2022, subject to each NEO’s continued service to Infinera through each applicable vesting date. (8) This RSU award is scheduled to vest over a three-year period, with one-third of the underlying shares vesting on March 5, 2021, and one-twelfth of the underlying shares vesting quarterly thereafter, subject to each NEO’s continued service to Infinera through each applicable vesting date. (9) This performance share award can be earned during fiscal 2020 through fiscal 2022 based on the Company’s achievement of a stretch gross margin goal , measured on a non-GAAP basis, either (a) for a full fiscal year or (b) on an average basis, for any four consecutive fiscal quarters.

(2) The value realized on the vesting date is based on the fair market value of our common stock on the vesting date and does not necessarily reflect the proceeds actually received by the NEO. 2020 CEO Pay Ratio We are providing the following information regarding the relationship of the annual total compensation of our median employee to the annual total compensation of our CEO (in each case, the annual total compensation was calculated in accordance with SEC rules applicable to the Summary Compensation Table above). The pay ratio included in this information is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K. For 2020: (cid:129) Our median employee’s annual total compensation was $113,848. (cid:129) Our CEO’s annual total compensation, as reported on page 46 in the Summary Compensation Table, was $4,139,627. (cid:129) Based on this information, the ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO to the annual total compensation of our median employee is 36 to 1. Pay Ratio Methodology SEC rules allow us to select a methodology for identifying our median employee in a manner that is most appropriate based on our size, organizational structure and compensation plans, policies and procedures. For fiscal 2020, we calculated the pay ratio using the same median employee that we used to calculate the pay ratio in fiscal 2019, as there has been no significant change in our employee population or compensation arrangements during the fiscal year that we reasonably believe would result in a significant change to our pay ratio disclosure. We selected December 1, 2019 as the date on which to determine our median employee, which is a date within the last three months of our last completed fiscal year. As of that date, we had 3,291 employees, with 1,210 employees based in the United States and 2,081 employees located outside of the United States. The pay ratio disclosure rules provide an exemption for companies to exclude non-U.S. employees from the median employee calculation if non-U.S. employees in a particular jurisdiction account for five percent (5%) or less of the company’s total number of employees. We applied this de minimis exemption when identifying the median employee by excluding 25 countries: 26 employees in Malaysia, 19 employees in Argentina, 17 employees in South Africa, 15 employees in Russian Federation, 9 employees in Indonesia, 8 employees in Philippines, 8 employees in Saudi Arabia, 7 employees in Kazakhstan, 7 employees in Poland, 6 employees in Egypt, 6 employees in Taiwan, 4 employees in Belgium, 4 employees in Colombia, 4 employees in Thailand, 3 employees in Hungary, 51 3 employees in Korea, 3 employees in Vietnam, 2 employees in Denmark, 2 employees in Israel, 2 employees in Serbia, 2 employees in United Arab Emirates, 1 employee in Greece, 1 employee in Luxembourg, 1 employee in Norway, and 1 employee in Turkey. After taking into account the de minimis exemption, 1,210 employees based in the United States and 1,920 employees located outside of the United States were considered for identifying the median employee. For purposes of identifying the median employee from our employee population base, we considered total cash compensation (base salary, including overtime, annual bonus and the sum of other bonuses, which included retention bonuses), as compiled from our payroll records. We selected total cash compensation as this information is readily available in each country. In addition, we measured compensation for purposes of determining the median employee using the year-to-date period ended December 28, 2019 and annualized for employees who were employed on December 1, 2019 but did not work for us for all of 2019. Compensation paid in foreign currencies was converted to U.S. dollars based on exchange rates in effect on December 1, 2019. Estimated Payments and Benefits upon Termination, Change of Control or Death/Disability Executive Severance Policy As discussed above in more detail in the section entitled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis – Additional Information Regarding Our Compensation Practices—Executive Severance Policy,” the Compensation Committee has taken appropriate steps to provide competitive post-employment compensation arrangements that promote the continued attention, dedication and continuity of the members of our senior management team, including our NEOs, and enable us to continue to recruit talented senior executive officers. Infinera shall not pay severance pursuant to this policy to the individuals subject to this policy in the event of (i) a change of control of Infinera (as defined below), or (ii) if such individual is terminated for Cause (as defined below). Pursuant to his Transition Agreement, Mr. Fallon waived all rights to receive severance and instead was only eligible to receive vesting acceleration of his outstanding restricted stock units at such time as his service as an advisor to the Company ended. Death and Disability Benefits Pursuant to the Infinera Corporation 2007 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”) and the 2016 Plan, accelerated vesting is provided in the event of the death (with exceptions in certain circumstances) or permanent disability of an employee, including our NEOs. We do not currently provide any other benefits in the event of an employee’s death or permanent disability. Change of Control Payments and Benefits As discussed above in more detail in the section entitled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis – Additional Information Regarding Our Compensation Practices—Change of Control Payments and Benefits,” we entered into COC Agreements with each of our NEOs to encourage their continued attention, dedication and continuity with respect to their roles and responsibilities without the distraction that may arise from the possibility or occurrence of a change of control of Infinera. For purposes of these benefits, the following terms have the following meanings: Change of Control . . . . . . . . . . (i) Any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of Infinera representing fifty percent (50%) or more of the total voting power represented by Infinera’s then outstanding voting securities; (ii) the consummation of the sale or disposition by Infinera of all or substantially all of Infinera’s assets; (iii) the consummation of a merger or consolidation of Infinera with any other corporation, other than a 52 merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of Infinera outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity or its parent) at least fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power represented by the voting securities of Infinera or such surviving entity or its parent outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation; or (iv) a change in the composition of the Board occurring within a two (2) year period, as a result of which less than a majority of the directors are Incumbent Directors. “Incumbent Directors” means directors who either (A) are directors of Infinera as of the date hereof, or (B) are elected, or nominated for election, to the Board with the affirmative votes of at least a majority of the directors of Infinera at the time of such election or nomination (but will not include an individual whose election or nomination is in connection with an actual or threatened proxy contest relating to the election of directors to Infinera). Constructive Termination . . . . The executive officer’s resignation as a result of, and within three (3) months following the expiration of any company cure period (discussed below) following the occurrence of one or more of the following: (i) a material reduction in the executive officer’s job, duties or responsibilities in a manner that is substantially inconsistent with the position, duties or responsibilities held by the executive officer immediately before such reduction; (ii) a material reduction in the executive officer’s base salary (in other words, a reduction of more than five percent of executive’s base salary within the twelve-month period following a Change of Control); or (iii) a material change in the work location at which the executive officer is required to perform services for Infinera (in other words, a requirement that the executive officer relocate to a work location that is more than 50 miles from the executive’s work location in effect as of the date immediately prior to a Change in Control). The executive officer will not resign as the result of a Constructive Termination without first providing Infinera with written notice of the acts or omissions constituting the grounds for “Constructive Termination” within ninety (90) days of the initial existence of the grounds for “Constructive Termination” and a cure period of thirty (30) days following the date of such notice. (i) The executive officer’s willful failure to substantially perform his or her duties and responsibilities to Infinera or deliberate violation of a company policy; (ii) the executive officer’s commission of any act of fraud, embezzlement, dishonesty or any other willful misconduct that has caused or is reasonably expected to result in material injury to Infinera; (iii) unauthorized use or disclosure by the executive officer of any proprietary information or trade secrets of Infinera or any other party to whom the executive officer owes an obligation of nondisclosure as a result of his or her relationship with Infinera; or (iv) the executive officer’s willful breach of any of his or her obligations under any written agreement or covenant with Infinera. The determination as to whether the executive officer is being terminated for Cause will be made in good faith by Infinera and will be final and binding on the executive officer. Cause . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 53 Fiscal 2020 Estimated Payments and Benefits Table The amount of compensation and benefits payable to each of our NEOs (as of the last day of fiscal 2020) in the event of (x) a termination of employment by Infinera, (y) a termination of employment without Cause or as a result of a Constructive Termination in connection with a Change of Control transaction (as defined above) within 3 months prior to, through 18 months after, a Change of Control, or (z) a termination of employment due to death or permanent disability, has been estimated in the table below. The value of the outstanding equity award vesting acceleration was calculated based on the assumption that the termination event occurred on December 26, 2020, the last day of fiscal 2020. The closing price of our common stock as of the last trading day of fiscal 2020 (December 24, 2020) was $10.97 per share, which was used as the value of our common stock in the calculations below. The value of the vesting acceleration was calculated by (i) multiplying the number of accelerated shares of common stock underlying unvested, in-the-money equity awards by $10.97 and (ii) subtracting the exercise price for the unvested stock options.

(3) The vesting of 367,000 shares of common stock would accelerate if Mr. Teichmann was terminated (a) without Cause or (b) as a result of a Constructive Termination within 3 months prior to, through 18 months after, a Change of Control, or upon death or permanent disability as of December 26, 2020. (4) The vesting of 145,856 shares of common stock would accelerate if Mr. Walden was terminated (a) without Cause or (b) as a result of a Constructive Termination within 3 months prior to, through 18 months after, a Change of Control, or upon death or permanent disability as of December 26, 2020. 54 As described above, in connection with his transition from serving as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Fallon entered into the Transition Agreement that provides that, upon termination of his services as an advisor, the vesting of all of his outstanding restricted stock units would accelerate and he would waive all rights to any other compensation or severance. If his consulting services had terminated on December 26, 2020, the last day of fiscal 2020, the value of the vesting acceleration of Mr. Fallon’s outstanding restricted stock unit awards would have been $3,471,073. Mr. Jandro was not eligible to receive any potential severance as of December 26, 2020, the last day of fiscal 2020, and did not receive any severance during fiscal 2020. 55 RISK ASSESSMENT OF COMPENSATION PRACTICES At the request of the Compensation Committee, a review of the risks associated with our organization-wide compensation policies and practices was conducted for fiscal 2020 compensation. This assessment covered topics including: our compensation policies and practices; a review of each of the compensation vehicles that we employ; the identification of any compensation design features that could encourage excessive risk taking; and the controls, policies and plan features that mitigate our compensation risk. Although all compensation programs were considered, particular attention was paid to incentive-based plans and arrangements involving variable payouts, where an employee might be able to influence payout factors and compensation plans and arrangements involving our executive team. The review found that, because our incentive programs are based primarily on financial objectives important to Infinera, we avoid an over-emphasis on shorter- term financial goals. In addition, the financial objectives used to determine the performance measures for our incentive-based compensation plans and arrangements were found to be substantially derived from our annual operating plan, which is approved by the Board. In addition, the assessment considered our controls and other mitigating factors that serve to offset elements of our compensation policies and practices that may introduce or encourage risk-taking. Those elements include the Compensation Committee’s ability to use discretion to adjust payouts on most awards; strong stock ownership requirements for our Section 16 Officers; a clawback policy; the existence of, and training related to, corporate standards of business conduct and ethics; effective internal controls over financial reporting; and the participation in our Corporate Bonus Plan by Mr. Walden and our Sales Operations leader, which enables a level of independence in establishing the sales commission plan design and quotas for our global sales team. This risk assessment was presented to and reviewed by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee agreed with the result of the review, which concluded that the risks associated with our compensation policies and practices were being effectively managed. We have determined that the risks associated with our compensation policies and practices are not reasonably likely to result in a material adverse effect on Infinera. 56 PROPOSAL 2—APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT OF THE INFINERA CORPORATION 2016 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN The Board believes that our future success depends on our ability to attract and retain talented employees and that the ability to grant equity awards is a necessary and powerful recruiting and retention tool for Infinera. The Board believes that equity awards motivate high levels of performance, more closely align the interests of employees and shareholders by giving employees an opportunity to hold an ownership stake in Infinera, and provide an effective means of recognizing employee contributions to the success of Infinera. At the Annual Meeting, we are requesting that shareholders approve an increase to the number of shares of our common stock (the “Shares”) authorized for issuance thereunder by 4,350,000 Shares. The 2016 Plan has not been amended in any material way, other than to increase the number of shares of our common stock authorized for issuance under the 2016 Plan. Upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the Board approved amendments to the 2016 Plan on March 26, 2021, subject to the approval of our shareholders at the Annual Meeting. As of March 27, 2021, there were 4,477,616 Shares available for issuance pursuant to awards that may be granted under the 2016 Plan, excluding Shares already subject to outstanding awards granted under our predecessor 2007 Plan that, if forfeited, would be added to the number of Shares reserved under the 2016 Plan. If the proposed amendment to the 2016 Plan is not approved by our shareholders, the 2016 Plan will remain in effect without the amendment and awards will continue to be made under the 2016 Plan to the extent Shares remain available. However, in this event, we may not be able to continue our equity incentive program in the future. This could preclude us from successfully attracting and retaining highly skilled employees. The Board and the Compensation Committee believe that the additional Shares under the increased Share reserve will enable us to continue to use the 2016 Plan to achieve our recruiting, retention and incentive goals and will be essential to our future success. If our shareholders approve this amendment to the 2016 Plan, we currently anticipate that the Shares will be sufficient to meet our expected needs through the date of our 2022 annual meeting of our shareholders (“2022 Annual Meeting”). In determining the number of Shares to be reserved for issuance under the 2016 Plan, the Compensation Committee and the Board considered the following: (cid:129) Historical Grant Practices. The Compensation Committee and the Board considered the historical amounts of equity awards that we granted in the past three years. In fiscal 2018, 2019 and 2020, we granted equity awards covering 4.277 million, 11.152 million and 8.691 million Shares, respectively, or a total of approximately 24.120 million Shares over the three-year period. (cid:129) Forecasted Grants. In determining the projected Share utilization, the Compensation Committee and the Board considered a forecast that included the following factors: (i) the Shares that would be available for grant under the 2016 Plan, if our shareholders approve this amendment to the 2016 Plan, which is 8,827,616 Shares (consisting of 4,477,616 Shares available for issuance under the 2016 Plan as of March 27, 2021, plus the 4,350,000 additional Shares pursuant to this amendment to the 2016 Plan, and excluding Shares already subject to outstanding awards granted under the 2007 Plan that, if forfeited, would be added to the number of Shares reserved under the 2016 Plan); (ii) the estimated number of Shares to be added to the 2016 Plan from forfeited awards under the 2007 Plan; and (iii) forecasted future grants, which are “value-based,” meaning that Share amounts granted will be determined based on a dollar value of the award to be granted to the participant and the stock price of Infinera common stock. Due to our value-based grant program, any significant changes in our stock price as compared to the stock price we assumed for forecasting purposes could cause our actual Share usage to deviate significantly from our anticipated Share usage. (cid:129) Proxy Advisory Firm Guidelines. Given our significant institutional shareholder base, the Compensation Committee and the Board considered proxy advisory firm guidelines. Outstanding Awards The following table sets forth information regarding all outstanding stock options, RSUs and performance shares under all of our equity plans (other than our 2007 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2007 ESPP”)) as of 57 March 27, 2021. We do not currently have any outstanding stock options under the 2016 Plan. The last sales price of our common stock as reported on The Nasdaq Global Select Market on April 1, 2021 was $10.12 per share. Outstanding Options Weighted Average Exercise Price Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (in years) Unvested Performance Shares / RSUs Outstanding(1) Number of Shares Available for Grant(2) 0 N/A N/A 18,915,644 4,526,570 (1) This amount includes outstanding unvested performance share awards assuming target achievement under such awards. Assuming maximum performance under such performance share awards, this amount would be 19,024,268 shares. (2) This amount includes the following: (cid:129) (cid:129) 4,477,616 shares available for grant under the 2016 Plan; and 48,954 shares available for grant under the 2019 Inducement Equity Incentive Plan. Reasons for Voting for the Proposal The 2016 Plan has been designed consistent with best corporate governance practices. (cid:129) Administration. The 2016 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board, which is comprised entirely of independent non-employee directors. (cid:129) Shareholder Approval is Required for Additional Shares. The 2016 Plan does not contain an annual “evergreen” provision but instead reserves a fixed maximum number of Shares for issuance. Shareholder approval is required to increase that number. (cid:129) Share Counting Provisions. Under the 2016 Plan, if an option or stock appreciation right expires or becomes unexercisable without having been exercised in full, or if Shares subject to other types of awards are forfeited to or repurchased by us due to failure to vest, those Shares will become available for issuance again under the 2016 Plan. Shares used to pay the exercise or purchase price of an award will not become available for future grant or sale under the 2016 Plan. Shares used to satisfy the tax withholding obligations for awards other than options and stock appreciation rights will become available for future grant under the 2016 Plan. With respect to stock appreciation rights settled in Shares, the gross number of Shares exercised under the stock appreciation right award will cease to be available under the 2016 Plan. In addition, to the extent that we pay out an award in cash rather than Shares, such cash payment will not reduce the number of Shares available for issuance under the 2016 Plan. No Shares purchased by us with proceeds received from the exercise of an option will become available for issuance under the 2016 Plan or the 2007 Plan. (cid:129) Minimum Vesting Requirements. 95% of the Shares reserved for issuance under the 2016 Plan may be issued only through awards that cannot vest in less than one year from the date of grant unless the vesting of such awards is accelerated due to the participant’s death, disability, or retirement or a termination of the participant’s service that occurs in connection with our change in control. (cid:129) Limited Vesting Acceleration Upon a Change in Control. Except (x) as permitted under the minimum vesting requirements and (y) for any awards made to non-employee directors, the administrator shall not be permitted to accelerate the vesting of an award upon a change in control other than in the event an award is not assumed or substituted for as described in this proposal below in the section entitled “Description of the 2016 Plan—Merger or Change in Control.” (cid:129) Repricing Prohibition. The 2016 Plan prohibits any program providing participants the opportunity to transfer outstanding awards to a financial institution or other person or entity selected by the administrator, exchange awards for awards of the same type, awards of a different type, and/or cash, or have the exercise price of awards repriced (i.e., increased or reduced). (cid:129) Non-Employee Director Award Limits. Under the 2016 Plan, in any fiscal year, a non-employee director may be granted equity awards (with an aggregate grant date fair value) and any other compensation (including cash retainers or fees) of no more than an aggregate of $750,000, increased to $1,000,000 in our fiscal year of his or her initial service. Any equity awards or other compensation provided to the director for his or her services as an employee or consultant (other than as a non-employee director) will be excluded for purposes of these limits. 58 (cid:129) No Dividends on Options and Stock Appreciation Rights Until Shares are Issued or on Other Equity Awards While Unvested. Under the 2016 Plan, no participant will have any rights to dividends or any other shareholder rights with respect to any Shares subject to options or stock appreciation rights until such Shares are issued following award exercise, and any dividends that the administrator may determine will be payable on any other equity awards will be subject to the same vesting criteria, forfeitability, and/or transferability restrictions as apply to the Shares subject to the awards on which such dividends would be paid. Our executive officers and directors have an interest in the approval of the 2016 Plan by our shareholders because they would be eligible to receive awards under the 2016 Plan. Description of the 2016 Plan The following paragraphs provide a summary of the principal features of the 2016 Plan and its operation. However, this summary is not a complete description of all of the provisions of the 2016 Plan and is qualified in its entirety by the specific language of the 2016 Plan. A copy of the 2016 Plan is provided as Appendix B to this Proxy Statement. Purposes. The purposes of the 2016 Plan are to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial responsibility; to provide additional incentive to employees, directors, and consultants; and to promote the success of our business. These incentives will be provided through the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, RSUs, performance units, and performance shares as the administrator of the 2016 Plan may determine. Authorized Shares. Subject to the adjustment provisions contained in the 2016 Plan, the maximum number of Shares that may be issued pursuant to awards under the 2016 Plan is equal to the sum of (1) 30,800,000 Shares plus (2) Shares subject to awards granted under the 2007 Plan that after May 12, 2016, expire, are forfeited or otherwise terminate without being exercised in full (to the extent they were exercisable), or are forfeited to or repurchased by us due to failure to vest (provided that the maximum number of Shares that may be added to the 2016 Plan with respect to awards granted under the 2007 Plan pursuant to this clause (2) above is 7,700,000 Shares). Our shareholders are being asked to approve an increase of 4,350,000 Shares in the maximum number of Shares that may be issued pursuant to awards under the 2016 Plan. Thus, if our shareholders approve this increase, the maximum number of Shares that may be issued pursuant to awards under the 2016 Plan will be increased to 35,150,000 Shares, plus the number of Shares described in clause (2) above. Shares may be authorized, but unissued, or reacquired Shares. If an option or stock appreciation right expires or becomes unexercisable without having been exercised in full, or if Shares subject to other types of awards are forfeited to or repurchased by us due to failure to vest, those Shares will become available for issuance again under the 2016 Plan. Shares used to pay the exercise or purchase price of an award will cease to be available for future grant or sale under the 2016 Plan. Shares used to satisfy the tax withholding obligations related to an award, except with respect to options and stock appreciation rights, will become available for future grant under the 2016 Plan. With respect to stock appreciation rights settled in Shares, the gross number of Shares exercised under the stock appreciation right award will cease to be available under the 2016 Plan. In addition, to the extent that we pay out an award in cash rather than Shares, such cash payment will not reduce the number of Shares available for issuance under the 2016 Plan. No Shares purchased by us with proceeds received from the exercise of an option will become available for issuance under the 2016 Plan or the 2007 Plan. Plan Administration. The Compensation Committee (or other committee appointed by the Board) administers the 2016 Plan. The Board or any committee of directors or other individuals satisfying applicable laws appointed by the Board or a duly authorized committee of the Board may administer the 2016 Plan. To the extent desirable to exempt transactions under the 2016 Plan pursuant to Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act (“Rule 16b-3”), the transactions will be structured to satisfy such applicable requirements for exemption under Rule 16b-3. Subject to the provisions of the 2016 Plan, the administrator will have the power to determine the award recipients and the terms of the awards not inconsistent with the 2016 Plan, including the exercise price, the number of Shares subject to each such award, the exercisability of the awards, and the form of consideration, if 59 any, payable by an option holder upon exercise. The administrator also will have the authority to amend existing awards, to determine fair market value of Shares, to construe and interpret the 2016 Plan and awards granted under the 2016 Plan, to establish rules and regulations, including sub-plans for the purpose of satisfying, or qualifying for favorable tax treatment under, applicable laws in jurisdictions outside of the United States, and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for administering the 2016 Plan. The administrator’s decisions and interpretations will be final and binding on all participants and any other holders of awards and will be given the maximum deference permitted by law. No Repricing. The 2016 Plan prohibits any program providing participants the opportunity to transfer outstanding awards to a financial institution or other person or entity selected by the administrator, exchange awards for awards of the same type, awards of a different type, and/or cash, or have the exercise price of awards repriced (i.e., increased or reduced). Vesting Requirements. Awards granted under the 2016 Plan are required to vest no earlier than the one-year anniversary of the awards’ grant date, except that (a) without regard to such limitation, vesting of awards can be accelerated due to a participant’s death, disability or retirement, or service termination in connection with our change in control, and (b) awards that result in the issuance of up to an aggregate of 5% of the Shares reserved for issuance under the 2016 Plan may granted under the 2016 Plan, or outstanding awards granted under the 2016 Plan modified, without regard to such limitation. The administrator may provide for the acceleration of an award granted under the 2016 Plan in connection with the termination of a participant’s service upon or in connection with our change in control. Except for any awards granted to non-employee directors or as described above in this paragraph, the administrator will not be permitted to accelerate the vesting of awards upon our change in control other than if the awards are not assumed or substituted for in our change in control. Eligibility. We will be able to grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, RSUs, performance units and performance shares under the 2016 Plan to our employees, consultants and non-employee directors, and employees and consultants of our parent or subsidiary corporations. We will be able to grant incentive stock options under the 2016 Plan only to individuals who, as of the time of grant, are employees of ours or of any parent or subsidiary corporation of ours. As of March 27, 2021, we had ten non-employee directors, 3,041 employees (including four NEOs) and 167 independent consultants. Non-Employee Director Award Limits. The 2016 Plan provides that all non-employee directors will be eligible to receive all types of awards (except for incentive stock options) under the 2016 Plan. However, in any fiscal year, a non-employee director may be granted equity awards (with an aggregate grant date fair value) and any other compensation (including cash retainers or fees) of no more than an aggregate of $750,000, increased to $1,000,000 in our fiscal year of his or her initial service as a non-employee director. Any equity awards or other compensation provided to the director for his or her services as an employee or consultant (other than as a non-employee director) will be excluded for purposes of these limits. Certain Other Limits. In any fiscal year, subject to any adjustment provisions contained in the 2016 Plan, the maximum aggregate number of Shares covering equity awards that a participant is permitted to receive under the 2016 Plan is: (cid:129) With respect to stock options, 1,500,000 Shares, plus an additional 1,500,000 Shares in connection with his or her initial service as an employee; (cid:129) With respect to stock appreciation rights, 1,500,000 Shares, plus an additional 1,500,000 Shares in connection with his or her initial service as an employee; (cid:129) With respect to restricted stock, 1,500,000 Shares, plus an additional 1,500,000 Shares in connection with his or her initial service as an employee; (cid:129) With respect to RSUs, 1,500,000 Shares, plus an additional 1,500,000 Shares in connection with his or her initial service as an employee; and (cid:129) With respect to performance shares, 1,500,000 Shares, plus an additional 1,500,000 Shares in connection with his or her initial service as an employee. 60 The 2016 Plan also provides that during any fiscal year, the maximum aggregate initial value (based on the fair market value of the Shares underlying the award on the award’s grant date) of performance units that a participant is permitted to receive under the 2016 Plan is $7,500,000. Dividends. Until Shares are issued under a stock option or stock appreciation right granted under the 2016 Plan, the holder of such awards will have no right to receive dividends or any other rights as a shareholder with respect to the Shares subject to the award and no adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date occurs before the date the related Shares are issued under the stock option or stock appreciation right award (other than subject to the adjustment provisions contained in the 2016 Plan, as discussed under “Certain Adjustments” further below). The 2016 Plan provides that whether payable in Shares or otherwise, any dividends or distributions payable with respect to Shares subject to a restricted stock award granted under the 2016 Plan will be subject to the same restrictions on transferability and/or forfeitability as the Shares subject to such award. The Administrator also may determine, in its discretion, that such restricted stock awards will not be eligible to receive any dividends or other distributions during the period of restriction applicable to the award. The 2016 Plan provides further that holders of any restricted stock units, performance shares and performance units granted thereunder will have no right to receive dividends or other distributions as a shareholder with respect to the Shares subject to such awards unless the Administrator determines otherwise, in which case any such dividends or distributions will be subject to the same vesting criteria and forfeitability provisions as the Shares subject to such award on which they are paid. For clarity, the Shares reserved for issuance under the 2016 Plan will not be reduced by dividends or other distributions that are reinvested into additional Shares or credited as additional Shares subject to or paid on such award. Stock Options. We are able to grant stock options under the 2016 Plan. Each option will be evidenced by an award agreement that specifies the exercise price, the number of Shares subject to the option, the maximum term of the option, forms of consideration for exercise, and such other terms and conditions as the administrator determines, subject to the terms of the 2016 Plan. The per share exercise price of options granted under the 2016 Plan must be at least equal to the fair market value of a share of our common stock on the date of grant, except in special, limited circumstances as set forth in the 2016 Plan. The maximum term of a stock option must not exceed 10 years. However, with respect to any participant who owns more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of outstanding stock of ours or of any parent or subsidiary of ours, the maximum term of an incentive stock option granted to such participant must not exceed five years and such option’s per share exercise price must equal at least 110% of the fair market value of a Share on the grant date. Generally, the fair market value of a Share is the closing sales price of a Share on the relevant date as quoted on Nasdaq. Options will be exercisable at such times and under such conditions as determined by the administrator and as set forth in the applicable award agreement. The administrator will determine and specify in each award agreement, and solely in its discretion, the period of post-termination exercise applicable to each option. In the absence of such a determination by the administrator, the participant generally will be able to exercise the vested portion of the option for three months following his or her termination for reasons other than death or disability, and for 12 months following his or her termination due to disability or death while holding the option (to the extent vested on the date of disability or death). However, in no event can an option be exercised after the expiration of the term of the option. The administrator also determines the form of consideration for exercising an option, which may consist of cash, check, promissory note (if permitted by applicable laws), certain other Shares, payment through a cashless exercise program established by us for the 2016 Plan, net exercise, other consideration or method permitted by applicable laws, or any combination of the above. Stock Appreciation Rights. We are able to grant stock appreciation rights under the 2016 Plan. Stock appreciation rights allow the recipient to receive the appreciation in the fair market value of the underlying Shares between the exercise date and the date of grant. Each stock appreciation right will be evidenced by an award agreement that specifies the exercise price, the term of the stock appreciation right, and other terms and conditions as determined by the administrator, subject to the terms of the 2016 Plan. The per Share exercise price of a stock appreciation right will be no less than 100% of the fair market value per Share on the date of grant. Stock appreciation rights will be exercisable at such times and under such conditions as determined by the administrator and set forth in the applicable award agreement. The maximum term of a stock appreciation right must not exceed 10 years. The administrator will determine and specify in each award agreement, and solely in its discretion, the period of post-termination exercise applicable to each stock appreciation right. In the absence of such a determination by the administrator, the participant generally will be able to exercise the vested portion of 61 the stock appreciation right for three months following his or her termination for reasons other than death or disability, and for 12 months following his or her termination due to disability or death while holding the stock appreciation right (to the extent vested on the date of disability or death). However, in no event can a stock appreciation right be exercised after the expiration of the term of the option. At the discretion of the administrator, the payment upon exercise of a stock appreciation right may be paid in cash, Shares, or a combination of both. Restricted Stock. We are able to grant restricted stock under the 2016 Plan. Restricted stock awards are grants of Shares that may be subject to various restrictions, which may include restrictions on transferability and forfeiture provisions. Each restricted stock award granted will be evidenced by an award agreement specifying the number of Shares subject to the award, any period of restriction, and other terms and conditions of the award, as determined by the administrator, subject to the terms of the 2016 Plan. Restricted stock awards may (but are not required to) be subject to vesting conditions, as the administrator specifies (subject to the minimum vesting requirements), and the Shares acquired may not be transferred by the participant until the vesting conditions (if any) are satisfied. The administrator, in its sole discretion, may accelerate the time at which any restrictions will lapse or be removed (subject to minimum vesting requirements). Recipients of restricted stock awards generally will have full voting rights with respect to such Shares upon grant without regard to vesting, unless the administrator provides otherwise. Unless otherwise determined by the administrator, a participant generally will forfeit any Shares of restricted stock as to which the restrictions have not lapsed as of a date specified in the award agreement (such as the participant’s termination of service). Restricted Stock Units. We are able to grant RSUs under the 2016 Plan. Each RSU granted is a bookkeeping entry representing an amount equal to the fair market value of one Share. Each RSU award will be evidenced by an award agreement that specifies the number of RSUs subject to the award, vesting criteria (which may include accomplishing specified performance criteria or continued service to us), form of payout, and other terms and conditions of the award, as determined by the administrator, subject to the terms of the 2016 Plan. RSUs result in a payment to a participant if the performance goals or other vesting criteria are achieved or the awards otherwise vest. The administrator, in its sole discretion, may accelerate the time at which any restrictions will lapse or be removed (subject to the minimum vesting requirements). The administrator determines in its sole discretion whether an award will be settled in cash, Shares, or a combination of both. Performance Units and Performance Shares. We are able to grant performance units and performance shares under the 2016 Plan. Performance units and performance shares are awards that will result in a payment to a participant only if performance goals or other vesting criteria established by the administrator are achieved or the awards otherwise vest. Each award of performance units or performance shares will be evidenced by an award agreement specifying the performance period and other terms and conditions of the award, as determined by the administrator, subject to the terms and conditions of the 2016 Plan. On or before the date of grant, the administrator will establish an initial dollar value for each performance unit. Each performance share will have an initial value equal to the fair market value of a Share on the date of grant. The administrator in its discretion will establish performance goals or other vesting criteria (which may include continued service), which, depending on the extent to which they are met, will determine the value or number of performance units or performance shares to be paid out. After the grant of performance units or performance shares, the administrator, in its sole discretion, may reduce or waive any performance objectives or other vesting provisions for such performance units or performance shares (subject to the minimum vesting requirements). The administrator, in its sole discretion, may pay earned performance units or performance shares in the form of cash, Shares, or in some combination of both. Non-Transferability of Awards. Unless the administrator provides otherwise, the 2016 Plan generally will not allow for the transfer of awards, and only the recipient of an award may exercise an award during his or her lifetime. Certain Adjustments. In the event of any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, other securities or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, reincorporation, reclassification, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of Shares or our other securities, or other change in our corporate structure affecting Shares, then in order to prevent diminution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the 2016 Plan, the administrator will adjust the number and class of shares that may be delivered under the 2016 Plan and/or the 62 number, class and price of shares covered by each outstanding award, and the numerical share limits set forth in the 2016 Plan. Merger or Change in Control. The 2016 Plan provides that in the event of our merger or change in control, as defined in the 2016 Plan, each outstanding award will be treated as the administrator determines, in accordance with the following: (i) the assumption or substitution of the award by the acquirer or successor corporation or its parent or subsidiary, (ii) termination of the award upon or immediately prior to the consummation of the merger or change in control following written notice and subject to the next paragraph, (iii) subject to the next paragraph, (A) termination of the award in exchange for an amount of cash and/or property in an amount that would have been attained upon exercise or realization of the award as of the date of the merger or change in control, or (B) replacement of the award with other rights or property, or (iv) any combination of the above. The administrator will not be required to treat all awards, all awards held by a participant, or all awards of the same type, similarly. If outstanding awards (or portion of the awards) are not assumed or substituted for, the awards will fully vest and become exercisable and all restrictions will lapse, except that with respect to awards subject to performance- based vesting, performance criteria will be deemed achieved based on actual performance measured through the last date that the awards remain outstanding (or such earlier date that the administrator may determine), with any performance period shortened proportionately and applicable performance goals or other vesting criteria adjusted proportionately to reflect the adjusted performance period (or to the extent applicable, the value of the consideration to be received by our shareholders in connection with the merger or change in control). In addition, if an option or stock appreciation right is not assumed or substituted in the event of a merger or change in control, the administrator will notify the participant that such award will be exercisable for a specified period prior to the transaction, and such award will terminate upon the expiration of such period. Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of our dissolution or liquidation, the administrator will notify each participant as soon as practicable before the effective date of the proposed transaction. To the extent not previously exercised (as applicable), an award granted under the 2016 Plan will terminated immediately before the consummation of such proposed transaction. Plan Amendment; Termination. The administrator has the authority to amend, alter, suspend, or terminate the 2016 Plan at any time, provided such action does not impair the existing rights of any participant unless mutually agreed in writing. The 2016 Plan will terminate automatically in 2026, unless we terminate it sooner. Forfeiture of Awards. The 2016 Plan grants the administrator authority to specify in an award agreement that a participant’s rights, payments and benefits with respect to an award granted under the 2016 Plan will be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture, or recoupment upon the occurrence of certain specified events. The 2016 Plan also provides that awards granted under the 2016 Plan will be subject to any Infinera clawback policy as may be established or amended from time to time. The administrator may require a participant to forfeit, return or reimburse to Infinera all or a portion of an award and any amounts paid under the award pursuant to the terms of Infinera’s clawback policy or in order to comply with applicable laws. 63 Number of Awards Granted to Employees and Directors The number of awards, and Shares subject thereunder, that an employee, director, or consultant may receive under the 2016 Plan is in the discretion of the administrator and therefore cannot be determined in advance. The following table sets forth the aggregate number of shares subject to RSUs and performance shares (at target) granted under the 2016 Plan during fiscal 2020 to each of our NEOs; our current executive officers, as a group; directors who are not executive officers, as a group; and all employees who are not executive officers, as a group. There were no stock options granted to any employees (including our NEOs) or directors in fiscal 2020.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences The following paragraphs are a summary of the general federal income tax consequences to U.S. taxpayers and Infinera of awards granted under the 2016 Plan. Tax consequences for any particular individual may be different. Incentive Stock Options. A participant generally recognizes no taxable income as the result of the grant or exercise of an incentive stock option qualifying under Section 422 of the Code (unless the participant is subject to the alternative minimum tax). If the participant exercises the option and then later sells or otherwise disposes of the Shares acquired through the exercise of the option after both the two-year anniversary of the grant date and the one-year anniversary of the exercise date, the difference between the sale price and the exercise price will be taxed as capital gain or loss. If the participant exercises the option and then later sells or otherwise disposes of the Shares on or before the two- or one-year anniversaries described above (a “disqualifying disposition”), he or she generally will have ordinary income at the time of the sale equal to the fair market value of the Shares on the exercise date (or the sale price, if less) minus the exercise price of the option. Nonstatutory Stock Options. A participant generally recognizes no taxable income on the date of grant of a nonstatutory stock option with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant. Upon the exercise of a nonstatutory stock option, the participant generally will recognize ordinary income equal to the excess of the fair market value of the Shares on the exercise date over the exercise price of the option. If the participant is an employee, such ordinary income generally is subject to withholding of income and employment taxes. Upon the sale of Shares acquired through the exercise of a nonstatutory stock option, any 64 subsequent gain or loss (generally based on the difference between the sale price and the fair market value on the exercise date) will be treated as long-term or short-term capital gain or loss, depending on how long the Shares were held by the participant. Stock Appreciation Rights. A participant generally recognizes no taxable income on the date of grant of a stock appreciation right with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant. Upon exercise of the stock appreciation right, the participant generally will be required to include as ordinary income an amount equal to the sum of the amount of any cash received and the fair market value of any Shares received upon the exercise. If the participant is an employee, such ordinary income generally is subject to withholding of income and employment taxes. Upon the sale of Shares acquired by an exercise of the stock appreciation right, any gain or loss (generally based on the difference between the sale price and the fair market value on the exercise date) will be treated as long-term or short-term capital gain or loss, depending on how long the Shares were held by the participant. Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Units and Performance Shares. A participant generally will not have taxable income at the time an award of restricted stock, RSUs, performance shares, or performance units is granted. Instead, he or she generally will recognize ordinary income in the first taxable year in which his or her interest in the Shares underlying the award becomes either (i) freely transferable, or (ii) no longer subject to substantial risk of forfeiture. If the participant is an employee, such ordinary income generally is subject to withholding of income and employment taxes. However, the recipient of a restricted stock award may elect to recognize income at the time he or she receives the award in an amount equal to the fair market value of the Shares underlying the award (less any cash paid for the Shares) on the date the award is granted. Section 409A. Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”) provides certain requirements for non-qualified deferred compensation arrangements with respect to an individual’s deferral and distribution elections and permissible distribution events. Awards granted under the 2016 Plan with a deferral feature will be subject to the requirements of Section 409A. If an award is subject to and fails to satisfy the requirements of Section 409A, the recipient of that award may recognize ordinary income on the amounts deferred under the award, to the extent vested, which may be prior to when the compensation is actually or constructively received. Also, if an award that is subject to Section 409A fails to comply with Section 409A’s provisions, Section 409A imposes an additional 20% tax on compensation recognized as ordinary income, as well as interest on such deferred compensation. Medicare Surtax. In addition, a participant’s annual “net investment income”, as defined in Section 1411 of the Code, may be subject to a 3.8% federal surtax. Net investment income may include capital gain and/or loss arising from the disposition of Shares issued pursuant to awards granted under the 2016 Plan. Whether a participant’s net investment income will be subject to this surtax will depend on the participant’s level of annual income and other factors. Tax Effect for Infinera. We generally will be entitled to a tax deduction in connection with an award under the 2016 Plan in an amount equal to the ordinary income realized by a participant and at the time the participant recognizes such income (for example, the exercise of a nonstatutory stock option). However, special rules limit the deductibility of compensation paid to our CEO and other “covered employees” as determined under Section 162(m) and applicable guidance. Under Section 162(m), the annual compensation paid to any of these specified individuals will be deductible only to the extent that it does not exceed $1,000,000. However, under Section 162(m) as it was in effect during fiscal year 2018, we could preserve the deductibility of certain compensation in excess of $1,000,000 if the conditions of Section 162(m) were met. These conditions included (among others) shareholder approval of the 2016 Plan and its material terms, setting certain limits on the number of Shares subject to awards and, for awards other than options and stock appreciation rights, establishing performance criteria that must be met before the award actually was vested or paid. As a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2018, and except for certain grandfathered arrangements, under Section 162(m), any compensation over $1,000,000 paid to the covered employees is not deductible to Infinera. THE FOREGOING IS ONLY A SUMMARY OF THE TAX EFFECT OF U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAXATION UPON PARTICIPANTS AND INFINERA WITH RESPECT TO THE GRANT AND VESTING OR EXERCISE OF AWARDS UNDER THE 2016 PLAN. IT DOES NOT PURPORT TO BE COMPLETE AND DOES NOT DISCUSS 65 THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF A SERVICE PROVIDER’S DEATH OR THE PROVISIONS OF THE INCOME TAX LAWS OF ANY MUNICIPALITY, STATE, OR NON-U.S. COUNTRY TO WHICH THE SERVICE PROVIDER MAY BE SUBJECT. Summary The Board believes that it is in the best interests of our company and our shareholders to continue to provide employees, consultants and directors with the opportunity to acquire an ownership interest in Infinera through the grant of equity awards under the 2016 Plan and thereby encourage them to remain in our service and more closely align their interests with those of our shareholders. Vote Required Approval of Proposal 2 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on this proposal. Abstentions will have the same effect as an “AGAINST” vote. Broker non-votes are not deemed to be votes cast and, therefore, are not included in the tabulation of the voting results on this proposal and will not affect the outcome of the vote. Proposal 2—Recommendation of the Board The Board unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” the approval of the amendment to increase the number of shares authorized for issuance thereunder by 4,350,000 shares. 66 PROPOSAL 3—ADVISORY APPROVAL OF NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, or the Dodd-Frank Act, enables our shareholders to vote to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our NEOs as disclosed in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis and the tabular disclosures of this Proxy Statement. This proposal, commonly known as a “say-on-pay” proposal, provides our shareholders with the opportunity to express their views on the compensation of our NEOs. As described in the section entitled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” we believe that the skill, talent, judgment and dedication of our executive officers are critical factors affecting the long-term value of Infinera. The goals of our executive compensation programs are to fairly compensate our executives, attract and retain highly qualified executives able to contribute to our long-term success, encourage performance consistent with clearly defined corporate goals and align our executives’ long-term interests with those of our shareholders. The specific goals that our current executive compensation programs reward are focused on financial objectives, including specific non-GAAP operating income targets. Please read the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of this Proxy Statement beginning on page 25 for additional details about our executive compensation programs, including information about the fiscal 2020 compensation of our NEOs. The Board is asking our shareholders to indicate their support for the compensation of our NEOs as described in this Proxy Statement. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our NEOs and the philosophy, policies, practices and objectives described in this Proxy Statement. Accordingly, the Board recommends that our shareholders vote “FOR” the following resolution at the Annual Meeting: “RESOLVED: That the shareholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the named executive officers, as disclosed in the Proxy Statement for the 2021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the compensation tables, and the accompanying footnotes and narrative disclosures.” As an advisory vote, this say-on-pay proposal is not binding upon Infinera, the Board or the Compensation Committee. However, Infinera, the Board and the Compensation Committee, which are responsible for overseeing, reviewing and administering our executive compensation programs, value the opinions expressed by our shareholders and will continue to consider our shareholders’ feedback in evaluating future compensation options for our NEOs. Vote Required Approval of Proposal 3 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on this proposal. Abstentions will have the same effect as an “AGAINST” vote. Broker non-votes are not deemed to be votes cast and, therefore, are not included in the tabulation of the voting results on this proposal and will not affect the outcome of the vote. Proposal 3—Recommendation of the Board The Board unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” the approval of the compensation of our NEOs, as disclosed in this Proxy Statement pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC. 67 OUR AUDITORS PROPOSAL 4—RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM The Audit Committee of the Board has selected Ernst & Young LLP, independent registered public accounting firm, as our independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 25, 2021 and has further directed that we submit the appointment of independent auditors for ratification by the shareholders at the Annual Meeting. Ernst & Young LLP has audited our financial statements since fiscal 2001. Representatives of Ernst & Young LLP will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available to respond to appropriate questions. Ratification of appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm is not required pursuant to our Bylaws, our other governing documents or law. However, we are submitting the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP to the shareholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If the shareholders fail to ratify the appointment, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether or not to retain that firm. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may direct the appointment of different independent auditors at any time during the year if it determines that such change would be in the best interests of Infinera and its shareholders. Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm’s Fees The following table sets forth the aggregate fees for audit, audit-related, tax and other services provided by Ernst & Young LLP for the fiscal years ended December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019. All of the services described in the following table were approved in conformity with the Audit Committee’s pre-approval processes and procedures. 2020 2019 Audit Fees . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $5,489,000 $5,009,000 Audit-Related Fees . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

This category also includes statutory audits required by non-U.S. jurisdictions, consultation and advice on new accounting pronouncements, and technical advice on various accounting matters related to the consolidated financial statements or statutory financial statements that are required to be filed by non-U.S. jurisdictions, comfort letters, and consents issued in connection with SEC filings. Fiscal 2020 fees were higher than fiscal 2019 fees as a result of additional fees related to the issuance of our convertible senior notes due March 1, 2027 and our at-the-market offering of our common stock. Audit-Related Fees This category consists of assurance and related services provided by Ernst & Young LLP that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our financial statements and are not included in the fees reported in the table above under “Audit Fees.” No audit-related fees were incurred during fiscal 2020 and 2019. Tax Fees This category includes fees for tax compliance, tax advice, tax planning and transfer pricing. 68 All Other Fees This category consists of any permitted services provided by Ernst & Young LLP that are not included in the category descriptions under “Audit Fees,” “Audit-Related Fees” or “Tax Fees” in the table above, and principally includes non-audit services, including permissible business and advisory consulting services. Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures The Audit Committee’s policy is to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services rendered by Ernst & Young LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee can pre-approve specified services in defined categories of audit services, audit-related services and tax services up to specified amounts, as part of the Audit Committee’s approval of the scope of the engagement of Ernst & Young LLP or on an individual case-by-case basis before Ernst & Young LLP is engaged to provide a service. The Audit Committee has determined that the rendering of the services other than audit services by Ernst & Young LLP is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence. Vote Required Approval of Proposal 4 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on this proposal. Abstentions will have the same effect as an “AGAINST” vote. Broker non-votes, if any, are not deemed to be votes cast and, therefore, are not included in the tabulation of the voting results on this proposal and will not affect the outcome of the vote. Proposal 4—Recommendation of the Board The Board unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as Infinera’s independent registered public accounting firm for its fiscal year ending December 25, 2021. 69 REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE The Audit Committee of the Board currently consists of the four non-employee directors named below. The Board annually reviews the Nasdaq listing standards’ definition of independence for Audit Committee members and has determined that each member of the Audit Committee meets that standard. The Board has also determined that Messrs. Gani and Milbury are each an Audit Committee Financial Expert as described in applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. The principal purpose of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board in its general oversight of our accounting practices, system of internal controls, audit processes and financial reporting processes. The Audit Committee is responsible for appointing and retaining our independent auditor and approving the audit and non-audit services to be provided by our independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee’s function is more fully described in its charter, which the Board has adopted and which the Audit Committee reviews on an annual basis. A copy of the Audit Committee charter is available on our website at www.infinera.com. Our management is responsible for preparing our financial statements and ensuring they are complete and accurate and prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Ernst & Young LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, is responsible for performing an independent audit of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. The Audit Committee met fourteen times during fiscal 2020. Its agenda included reviewing our financial statements, internal control over financial reporting, and audit and other matters. The Audit Committee met with our internal auditors and independent auditors, including in periodic executive sessions without management present, to discuss the scope, plan, status, and results of their respective audits. In addition, the Audit Committee met with management and the independent auditors each quarter to review our interim financial results and quarterly earnings press releases prior to their issuance. The Audit Committee also reviewed our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Annual Report on Form 10-K prior to their filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. At quarterly meetings, the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed with management, and management gave presentations regarding, our financial reporting and controls, financing activities, taxes and insurance, and related risks, as well as other topics with potential significant financial impact. The Audit Committee oversaw our anonymous and confidential ethics reporting system, which encourages and allows employees to submit concerns directly to senior management and the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements for the year ended December 26, 2020 with our management and Ernst & Young LLP. The Audit Committee has also discussed with Ernst & Young LLP the matters required to be discussed by Auditing Standard No. 1301, “Communications with Audit Committees” issued by Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”). The Audit Committee also has received and reviewed the written disclosures and the letter from Ernst & Young LLP required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding Ernst & Young LLP’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and has discussed with Ernst & Young LLP its independence from Infinera. Based upon the review and discussions described above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements referred to above be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 26, 2020 for filing with the SEC. Submitted by the members of the Audit Committee: Paul J. Milbury (Chair) Christine Bucklin Marcel Gani Kambiz Y. Hooshmand 70 CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS We have adopted a formal policy that our executive officers, directors, and principal shareholders, including their immediate family members and affiliates, are not permitted to enter into a related party transaction with us without the prior consent of the Audit Committee, or other independent members of the Board in the case it is inappropriate for the Audit Committee to review such transaction due to a conflict of interest. Any request for us to enter into a transaction with an executive officer, director, principal shareholder, or any of such persons’ immediate family members or affiliates, in which the amount involved exceeds $120,000 must first be presented to the Audit Committee for review, consideration and approval. All of our directors, executive officers and employees are required to report to the Audit Committee any such related party transaction. In approving or rejecting the proposed agreement, the Audit Committee shall consider the relevant facts and circumstances available and deemed relevant to the Audit Committee, including, but not limited to the risks, costs and benefits to us, the terms of the transaction, the availability of other sources for comparable services or products, and, if applicable, the impact on a director’s independence. The Audit Committee shall approve only those agreements that, in light of known circumstances, are, or are not inconsistent with, our best interests, as the Audit Committee determines in the good faith exercise of its discretion. During fiscal 2020, Dr. Welch, our Chief Innovation Officer and a member of the Board, was paid a base salary of $402,404, reflecting the 25% reduction of his $450,000 base salary that was in effect from May 2020 through December 2020 as part of our proactive cost-cutting measures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Dr. Welch was eligible for a target bonus opportunity of 90% during fiscal 2020 under our 2020 Bonus Plan, but did not receive a cash bonus for fiscal 2020. On March 4, 2020, Dr. Welch was granted an RSU award of 75,000 shares, which vests over a three-year period, with one-third of the underlying shares vesting on March 5, 2021, and one-twelfth of the underlying shares vesting quarterly thereafter. This RSU award had an aggregate grant date fair market value of $441,750, computed in accordance with ASC 718. See Notes 2 and 16 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements contained in our 2020 Annual Report for a discussion of all assumptions made by us in determining the ASC 718 values of equity awards. On March 4, 2020, Dr. Welch was granted an award of 650,000 performance-based shares. This award provided for a number of quantitative and qualitative performance objectives related to the successful development of our XR Optics program. These shares may vest up to 100% over a four-year period through the end of fiscal 2024 upon the achievement of various product development and financial performance metrics within specified time periods during this four-year period. In the event of our change in control that occurs during the performance period, the award will vest at the target level. This performance award had an aggregate grant date fair market value of $3,828,500, computed in accordance with ASC 718. We did not engage in any other related party transactions during fiscal 2020. DELINQUENT SECTION 16(a) REPORTS The members of the Board, our executive officers and persons who hold more than 10% of our outstanding common stock are subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, which requires them to file reports with respect to their ownership of our common stock and certain transactions in our common stock. Based solely upon (i) the copies of Section 16(a) reports that we received from such persons for their fiscal 2020 transactions in our common stock and their common stock holdings and (ii) the written representations received from one or more of such persons, we believe that all reporting requirements under Section 16(a) were met in a timely manner during fiscal 2020, with the exception that Nancy Erba was late filing one Form 4 with respect to three transactions on the same date and Michael Fernicola was late filing one Form 4 with respect to six transactions on the same date. 71 EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN INFORMATION The following table provides information as of December 26, 2020 with respect to the shares of our common stock that may be issued under our existing equity compensation plans.

Since these awards have no exercise price, they are not included in the weighted average exercise price calculation in column (b); and 3,200,974 shares issuable pursuant to outstanding unvested performance share awards assuming target performance under such awards. The number of shares, if any, to be issued pursuant to such outstanding awards will be determined based on certain performance metrics, as discussed above in the section entitled “Fiscal 2020 Compensation—Long-Term Incentive Compensation” in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis. Since these awards have no exercise price, they are not included in the weighted average exercise price calculation in column (b). (2) This amount includes 9,436,835 shares of common stock available for future issuances under the 2007 ESPP. (3) This amount includes the following: (cid:129) (cid:129) 421,875 shares subject to RSUs granted under the 2019 Inducement Equity Incentive Plan. Since these awards have no exercise price, they are not included in the weighted average exercise price calculation in column (b); and 187,500 shares issuable pursuant to outstanding unvested performance share awards assuming target performance under such awards. The number of shares, if any, to be issued pursuant to such outstanding awards will be determined based on certain performance metrics, as discussed above in the section entitled “Fiscal 2020 Compensation—Long-Term Incentive Compensation” in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis. Since these awards have no exercise price, they are not included in the weighted average exercise price calculation in column (b). 72 OUR SHAREHOLDERS SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT The following table sets forth certain information known to us regarding beneficial ownership of our common stock as of the Record Date by: (cid:129) Each person known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of our voting securities; (cid:129) Our NEOs; (cid:129) Each of our directors; and (cid:129) All current executive officers and directors as a group.

(10) SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR 2022 ANNUAL MEETING To be considered for inclusion in our Proxy Statement for the 2022 Annual Meeting, shareholder proposals must comply with our Bylaws and the requirements of Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act and be received by our Corporate Secretary at our principal executive offices no later than December 9, 2021, or no later than 120 calendar days before the one-year anniversary of the date on which we first mailed our Proxy Statement or Notice to shareholders in connection with this year’s Annual Meeting. Under Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act, if the date of the 2022 Annual Meeting changes by more than 30 days from the anniversary of this year’s Annual Meeting, to be included in our Proxy Statement, shareholder proposals must be received by us within a reasonable time before our solicitation is made. To be raised at the 2022 Annual Meeting, shareholder proposals must comply with our Bylaws. Under our Bylaws, a shareholder must give timely notice thereof in proper written form to our Corporate Secretary of any business, including nominations of directors for the Board that the shareholder wishes to raise at our 2022 Annual Meeting. To be timely, the shareholder notice must be received by our Corporate Secretary no later than February 22, 2022 nor earlier than January 23, 2022. To be in proper written form, the shareholder notice must contain a brief description of such business and the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting, as well 74 as certain other information as set forth in greater detail in our Bylaws. In connection with a shareholder nomination of a candidate for the Board, the shareholder notice must also include certain information as set forth in our Bylaws about both the nominee and the shareholder making the nomination. If you wish to bring a shareholder proposal or nominate a candidate for director, you are advised to review our Bylaws, which contain additional requirements about advance notice of shareholder proposals and director nominations. Our current Bylaws may be found on our website at www.infinera.com in the Corporate Governance section on our Investors page. Under our Bylaws, if the date of the 2022 Annual Meeting is advanced by more than 30 days prior to or delayed by more than 60 days after the one-year anniversary of the date of this year’s Annual Meeting, then, for notice by the shareholder to be timely, it must be received by our Corporate Secretary no earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to the 2022 Annual Meeting and no later than the close of business on the later of (i) the 90th day prior to the 2022 Annual Meeting, or (ii) the tenth day following the day on which disclosure in a press release reported by GlobeNewswire, Associated Press or a comparable national news service or in a document publicly filed by Infinera with the SEC pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act of the date of the 2022 Annual Meeting is first made. DELIVERY OF DOCUMENTS TO SHAREHOLDERS SHARING THE SAME LAST NAME AND ADDRESS To reduce the expense of delivering duplicate proxy materials to shareholders who may have more than one account holding our common stock, but sharing the same address, we have adopted a procedure, approved by the SEC, called “householding.” Under this procedure, shareholders who have the same last name and address, and who do not participate in electronic delivery of proxy materials, will receive only one copy of the Notice and, as applicable, any additional proxy materials that are delivered. This procedure reduces duplicate mailings and saves printing costs and postage fees, as well as natural resources. Shareholders who participate in “householding” will continue to have access to and utilize separate proxy voting instructions. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be “householding” communications to your address, “householding” will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in “householding” and would prefer to receive a separate set of proxy materials or if you would like an additional copy of any of the proxy materials, please notify your broker or direct your written request to Infinera Corporation, 6373 San Ignacio Avenue, San Jose, California 95119, Attention: Corporate Secretary, or call (408) 572-5200. Shareholders who currently receive multiple copies of the Proxy Statement at their address and would like to request “householding” of their communications should contact their broker. 75 OTHER MATTERS The Board knows of no other matters that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting. If any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying proxy to vote on such matters in accordance with their best judgment. By Order of the Board, San Jose, California April 8, 2021 Nancy Erba Chief Financial Officer 76 USER’S GUIDE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE PROXY MATERIALS AND VOTING PROCEDURAL MATTERS Annual Meeting Q: Why am I being provided access to these proxy materials? A: We are providing you access to these proxy materials in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board for use at the 2021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held exclusively virtually on Friday, May 21, 2021 at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time, and at any adjournment or postponement thereof, for the purpose of considering and acting upon the matters described herein. These materials were first sent or given to shareholders on or about April 8, 2021. You are invited to virtually attend the Annual Meeting and requested to vote on the items described in this proxy statement. Q: What is the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials? A: In accordance with rules and regulations adopted by the SEC, instead of mailing a printed copy of our proxy materials to all stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, Infinera is furnishing the proxy materials to its stockholders via the Internet. If you received a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”) by mail, you will not receive a printed copy of the proxy materials. Instead, the Notice will instruct you as to how you may access and review the proxy materials and submit your vote via the Internet. If you received a Notice by mail and would like to receive a printed copy of the proxy materials, please follow the instructions for requesting such materials included in the Notice. Choosing to receive the Notice by email will save us the cost of printing and mailing the documents to you and will reduce the impact of the Annual Meeting on the environment. If you choose to receive the Notice by email, you will receive an email next year with instructions containing a link to the proxy materials and a link to the proxy voting site. Your election to receive the Notice by email will remain in effect until you terminate it. On the date of mailing of the Notice, all stockholders of record and beneficial owners will have the ability to access all of our proxy materials on a website referred to in the Notice. These proxy materials will be available free of charge. Q: Where is the Annual Meeting? A: The Annual Meeting will be held virtually at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/INFN2021. Q: Why are you holding a virtual meeting instead of a physical meeting? A: In light of the continuing COVID-19 pandemic and government orders related to activities in the state and county where we operate, we believe that a virtual Annual Meeting would allow the greatest number of shareholders to attend. We are excited to embrace the latest technology to provide expanded access, improved communication and cost savings for our shareholders and our Company. We believe that hosting a virtual Annual Meeting will enable more of our shareholders to attend and participate in the meeting since our shareholders can participate from any location around the world with Internet access. Q: How can I attend the virtual Annual Meeting? A: The Annual Meeting will be a completely virtual meeting of shareholders conducted exclusively by a live audio webcast. If you are a shareholder of record as of the close of business on April 1, 2021, the record date for the Annual Meeting, you will be able to virtually attend the Annual Meeting, vote your shares and submit your questions online during the meeting by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/INFN2021. You will need to enter the 16-digit control number included on your notice, on your proxy card or on the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials. If you are a shareholder holding your shares in “street name” as of the close of business on April 1, 2021, you may gain access to the meeting by following the instructions in the voting instruction card provided by your 77 broker, bank, trustee or other nominee. You may not vote your shares electronically at the Annual Meeting unless you receive a valid “legal proxy” from your broker, bank, trustee or other nominee. The online meeting will begin promptly at 10:00 a.m., Pacific time. We encourage you to access the meeting prior to the start time. Online check-in will begin at 9:45 a.m., Pacific time, and you should allow approximately 15 minutes for the online check-in procedures. If you wish to submit a question for the Annual Meeting, you may do so in advance at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/INFN2021, or you may type it into the dialog box provided at any point during the virtual meeting (until the floor is closed to questions). Q: What can I do if I need technical assistance during the Annual Meeting? A: If you encounter any difficulties accessing the virtual Annual Meeting webcast please call the technical support number that will be posted on the Annual Meeting website log-in page. Q: What proposals will be voted on at the Annual Meeting? A: At the Annual Meeting, shareholders will be asked to vote on: (cid:129) The election of four Class II directors to serve until the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders or until their successors have been duly elected and qualified, or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal from the Board; (cid:129) The approval of an amendment of the 2016 Plan to increase the number of shares authorized for issuance thereunder by 4,350,000 shares; (cid:129) The approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of Infinera’s NEOs, as described in the Proxy Statement; and (cid:129) The ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as Infinera’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 25, 2021. We are not currently aware of any other business to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting. If any other matters are properly submitted for consideration at the Annual Meeting, the persons named as proxies will vote the shares represented thereby at their discretion. Adjournments of the Annual Meeting may be made for the purpose of, among other things, soliciting additional proxies. Any adjournment may be made from time to time by the chairperson of the meeting or approval of the holders of common stock representing a majority of the votes present virtually or by proxy at the Annual Meeting, whether or not a quorum exists, without further notice other than by an announcement at the Annual Meeting. Q: What is the voting requirement to approve each of the proposals and how does the Board recommend that I vote? A: Proposal 1—Directors are elected by a majority vote, which requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the total votes cast by holders of shares present virtually, or represented by proxy, and entitled to vote for each nominee at the Annual Meeting. You may vote “FOR,” “AGAINST” or “ABSTAIN” on this proposal. Abstentions are deemed to be votes cast and have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” this proposal. Broker non-votes are not deemed to be votes cast and, therefore, are not included in the tabulation of the voting results on this proposal and will not affect the outcome of the vote. The Board unanimously recommends that you vote your shares “FOR” the nominees listed in Proposal 1. Proposal 2—The approval of an amendment of the 2016 Plan to increase the number of shares authorized for issuance thereunder by 4,350,000 shares requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the total votes cast by holders of shares present virtually, or represented by proxy, and entitled to vote on this proposal at the Annual Meeting. You may vote “FOR,” “AGAINST” or “ABSTAIN” on this proposal. Abstentions are deemed to be votes cast and have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” this proposal. Broker non-votes are not deemed to be votes cast and, therefore, are not included in the tabulation of the voting results on this proposal and will not affect the outcome of the vote. The Board unanimously recommends that you vote your shares “FOR” Proposal 2. 78 Proposal 3—The approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of Infinera’s NEOs requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the total votes cast by holders of shares present virtually, or represented by proxy, and entitled to vote on this proposal at the Annual Meeting. You may vote “FOR,” “AGAINST” or “ABSTAIN” on this proposal. Abstentions are deemed to be votes cast and have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” this proposal. Broker non-votes are not deemed to be votes cast and, therefore, are not included in the tabulation of the voting results on this proposal and will not affect the outcome of the vote. The Board unanimously recommends that you vote your shares “FOR” Proposal 3. Proposal 4—The ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as Infinera’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 25, 2021, requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the total votes cast by holders of shares present virtually, or represented by proxy, and entitled to vote on this proposal at the Annual Meeting. You may vote “FOR,” “AGAINST” or “ABSTAIN” on this proposal. Abstentions are deemed to be votes cast and have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” this proposal. Broker non-votes, if any, are not deemed to be votes cast and, therefore, are not included in the tabulation of the voting results on this proposal and will not affect the outcome of the vote. The Board unanimously recommends that you vote your shares “FOR” Proposal 4. Stock Ownership Q: What is the difference between holding shares as a shareholder of record and as a beneficial owner? A: Shareholders of Record—If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Computershare, Inc., you are the shareholder of record with respect to those shares, and the Notice has been sent directly to you. Beneficial Owners—If your shares are held through a broker, bank, trustee or other nominee, rather than directly in their own name, you are considered the “beneficial owner” of shares held in “street name.” The Notice has been forwarded to you by your broker, trustee or other nominee who is considered, with respect to those shares, the shareholder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank, trustee or other nominee on how to vote your shares. For directions on how to vote shares beneficially held in street name, please refer to the voting instruction card provided by your broker, bank, trustee or other nominee. Because a beneficial owner is not the shareholder of record, you may not vote these shares virtually at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a legal proxy issued in your name from the broker, bank, trustee or other nominee that holds your shares, giving you the right to vote your shares at the Annual Meeting. Quorum and Voting Q: Who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting? A: Shareholders of record of our common stock at the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to receive notice of and to vote their shares at the Annual Meeting. Such shareholders are entitled to cast one vote for each share of common stock held as of the Record Date. As of the close of business on the Record Date, there were 204,809,672 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. Shares held as of the Record Date include shares that are held directly in your name as the shareholder of record and those shares held for you as a beneficial owner through a broker, bank, trustee or other nominee. Q: How many shares must be present or represented to conduct business at the Annual Meeting? A: The presence virtually of the holders of a majority of the shares of our common stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is necessary to constitute a quorum at the Annual Meeting. Such shareholders are counted as present at the meeting if they (i) are present virtually at the Annual Meeting or (ii) have properly submitted a proxy. Under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as amended, abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as present and entitled to vote and are included for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting. 79 Q: What is a broker non-vote and how are they counted at the Annual Meeting? A: A broker non-vote occurs when the broker holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a non-routine proposal because the broker does not have discretionary voting power with respect to such proposal. Broker non-votes will be counted towards the presence of a quorum, but will not be counted towards the vote total for any proposal. Q: Which proposals are considered “routine” or “non-routine?” A: The election of directors (Proposal 1), the amendment of the 2016 Plan (Proposal 2) and the non-binding advisory vote on Infinera’s NEO compensation (Proposal 3) are “non-routine” matters for which discretionary voting power does not exist under applicable rules. A broker, bank, trustee or other nominee cannot vote without instructions on non-routine matters, and therefore, broker non-votes may exist in connection with Proposals 1, 2 and 3. Thus, if you hold your shares beneficially in street name and you do not instruct your broker, bank, trustee or other nominee how to vote with respect to Proposals 1, 2 and 3, no votes will be cast on your behalf. The ratification of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm (Proposal 4) is considered a “routine” matter for which discretionary voting power exists under applicable rules. A broker, bank, trustee or other nominee may generally vote on routine matters without instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares being voted, and therefore no broker non-votes are expected to exist in connection with Proposal 4. Q: How can I vote my shares virtually at the Annual Meeting? A: Shareholders of Record—Shares held in your name as the shareholder of record may be voted virtually at the Annual Meeting, even if previously voted by another method. You will need the 16-digit control number on your proxy card or voting instructions to vote at the Annual Meeting. Beneficial Owners—Shares held beneficially in street name may be voted virtually at the Annual Meeting only if you obtain a legal proxy issued in your name from the broker, bank, trustee or other nominee that holds your shares, giving you the right to virtually vote the shares at the Annual Meeting. Otherwise, you will not be permitted to virtually vote at the Annual Meeting. You will need the 16-digit control number on your proxy card or voting instructions to vote at the Annual Meeting. Even if you plan to virtually attend the Annual Meeting, we recommend that you submit your vote as described in the Notice and below, so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Annual Meeting. Q: How can I vote my shares without virtually attending the Annual Meeting? A: Whether you hold shares directly as the shareholder of record or beneficially in street name, you may direct how your shares are voted without attending the Annual Meeting. If you are a shareholder of record, you may vote by submitting a proxy (please refer to the voting instructions in the Notice or below). If you hold shares beneficially in street name, you may vote by submitting voting instructions to your broker, bank, trustee or other nominee (please refer to the voting instructions provided to you by your broker, bank, trustee or other nominee). Internet—Shareholders of record with Internet access may submit proxies by following the instructions in the Notice. Shareholders who hold shares beneficially in street name may vote by accessing the website specified in the voting instructions provided by their brokers, banks, trustees or other nominees. Telephone—Depending on how your shares are held, you may be able to vote by telephone. If this option is available to you, you will receive information explaining this procedure. Mail—Shareholders who have received a paper copy of a proxy card or voting instruction card by mail may submit their vote by completing, signing and dating their proxy card or voting instruction card where indicated and returning it in the accompanying prepaid envelope. 80 Q: How will my shares be voted if I submit a proxy via the Internet, by telephone or by mail and do not make specific choices? A: If you are a shareholder of record or have obtained a proxy voting form from your broker, bank, trustee or other nominee that holds your shares giving you the right to vote the shares, and you submit a proxy via the Internet, by telephone or by mail and do not make voting selections, the shares represented by that proxy will be voted “FOR” the nominees listed in Proposal 1 and “FOR” Proposals 2, 3 and 4. If you are a beneficial owner of shares and your broker, bank, trustee or other nominee does not receive instructions from you about how your shares are to be voted, the shares represented by that proxy will not be voted with respect to Proposals 1, 2 or 3 and will be counted as broker non-votes with respect to these proposals. With respect to Proposal 4, your broker, bank, trustee or other nominee will have the discretion to vote your shares. Q: Can I change or revoke my vote? A: Subject to any rules your broker, bank, trustee or other nominee may have, you may change your proxy instructions at any time before your proxy is voted at the Annual Meeting. Shareholders of Record—If you are a shareholder of record, you may change your vote by (1) filing with our Corporate Secretary, prior to your shares being voted at the Annual Meeting, a written notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy card, in either case dated later than the prior proxy relating to the same shares, or (2) virtually attending the Annual Meeting and voting (although virtual attendance at the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke a proxy). Any written notice of revocation or subsequent proxy card must be received by our Corporate Secretary prior to the taking of the vote at the Annual Meeting. Such written notice of revocation or subsequent proxy card should be hand delivered to our Corporate Secretary or should be sent to our principal executive offices, Attn: Corporate Secretary. A shareholder of record who has voted via the Internet or by telephone may also change his or her vote by making a timely and valid Internet or telephone vote at a later time but prior to 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time, on the day prior to the Annual Meeting. Beneficial Owners—If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, you may change your vote by (1) submitting new voting instructions by any of the applicable voting methods allowed through your broker, trustee or other nominee, or (2) virtually attending the Annual Meeting and voting if you have obtained a proxy voting form from the broker, trustee or other nominee that holds your shares giving you the right to vote the shares. Q: Who will bear the cost of soliciting votes for the Annual Meeting? A: We will bear all expenses of soliciting proxies for the Annual Meeting. We may reimburse brokerage firms, custodians, nominees, fiduciaries and other persons representing beneficial owners of common stock for their reasonable expenses in forwarding solicitation materials to such beneficial owners. Directors, officers and employees of Infinera may also solicit proxies in person or by other means of communication. Such directors, officers and employees will not be additionally compensated, but may be reimbursed for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with such solicitation. We have engaged the services of Morrow Sodali LLC, 470 West Avenue, 3rd Floor, Stamford, Connecticut 06902, as our proxy solicitor to aid in the solicitation of proxies from certain brokers, banks, trustees, nominees and other institutional owners. Morrow’s fees for this service are estimated to be $12,500 plus expenses. Q: Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?

(ee) “Performance Unit” means an Award which may be earned in whole or in part upon attainment of Performance Goals or other vesting criteria as the Administrator may determine and which may be settled for cash, Shares or other securities or a combination of the foregoing pursuant to Section 11. (ff) “Period of Restriction” means the period during which the transfer of Shares of Restricted Stock are subject to restrictions and therefore, the Shares are subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture. Such restrictions may be based on the passage of time, continued service, the achievement of target levels of performance, the achievement of Performance Goals, or the occurrence of other events as determined by the Administrator. (gg) “Plan” means this 2016 Equity Incentive Plan, as may be amended from time to time. (hh) “Restricted Stock” means Shares issued pursuant to a Restricted Stock award under Section 8 of the Plan, or issued pursuant to the early exercise of an Option. (ii) “Restricted Stock Unit” means a bookkeeping entry representing an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of one Share, granted pursuant to Section 9. Each Restricted Stock Unit represents an unfunded and unsecured obligation of the Company. (jj) “Rule 16b-3” means Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act or any successor to Rule 16b-3, as in effect when discretion is being exercised with respect to the Plan. (kk) “Securities Act” means the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. (ll) “Section 16(b)” means Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. (mm) “Section 409A” means Section 409A of the Code and the final regulations and any guidance promulgated thereunder, as may be amended from time to time. (nn) “Service Provider” means an Employee, Director or Consultant. B-4 (oo) “Share” means a share of the Common Stock, as adjusted in accordance with Section 14 of the Plan.

(qq) “Subsidiary” means a “subsidiary corporation,” whether now or hereafter existing, as defined in Section 424(f) of the Code. (rr) “Tax Obligations” means tax, social insurance and social security liability obligations and requirements in connection with the Awards, including, without limitation, (i) all federal, state, and local income, employment and any other taxes (including the Participant’s Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) obligation) that are required to be withheld by the Company (or Company’s Parent or Subsidiary, as applicable), (ii) the Participant’s and, to the extent required by the Company (or its Parent or Subsidiary, as applicable), the Company’s (or its Parent’s or Subsidiary’s) fringe benefit tax liability, if any, associated with the grant, vesting, or exercise of an Award or sale of Shares issued under the Award, and (iii) any other taxes or social insurance or social security liabilities or premium the responsibility for which the Participant has, or has agreed to bear, with respect to such Award (or exercise thereof or issuance of Shares or other consideration thereunder). 3. Stock Subject to the Plan. (a) Stock Subject to the Plan. Subject to the provisions of Section 14 of the Plan, the maximum aggregate number of Shares that may be issued under the Plan is (i) 35,150,000 Shares, plus (ii) any Shares subject to awards granted under the Company’s 2007 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Existing Plan”) that, after the effective date of the Plan, expire, are forfeited or otherwise terminate without having been exercised in full to the extent such awards were exercisable, and Shares issued pursuant to awards granted under the Existing Plan that, after the effective date of the Plan, are forfeited to or repurchased by the Company due to failure to vest, with the maximum number of Shares to be added to the Plan pursuant to clause (ii) equal to 7,700,000 Shares. The Shares may be authorized, but unissued, or reacquired Common Stock. (b) Lapsed Awards. Shares that actually have been issued under the Plan under any Award will not be returned to the Plan and will not become available for future distribution under the Plan (unless repurchased as specified in this subsection (b) below). If an Option or Stock Appreciation Right Award expires or becomes unexercisable without having been exercised in full, the unexercised Shares which were subject thereto will become available for future grant or sale under the Plan (unless the Plan has terminated). If an Award of Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Units or Performance Shares (each, a “Full Value Award”) is forfeited or repurchased by the Company due to failure to vest, then the forfeited or repurchased Shares subject thereto will become available for future grant or sale under the Plan (unless the Plan has terminated). With respect to Stock Appreciation Rights settled in Shares, the gross number of Shares covered by the portion of the Award so exercised will cease to be available under the Plan. Shares used to pay the exercise or purchase price of an Award will cease to be available for future grant or sale under the Plan. Shares used to satisfy the Tax Obligations related to an Option or Stock Appreciation Right will not become available for future grant or sale under the Plan. Shares used to satisfy the Tax Obligations related to a Full Value Award will be available for future grant or sale under the Plan. To the extent an Award under the Plan is paid out in cash rather than Shares, such cash payment will not result in reducing the number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan. For purposes of clarification, no Shares purchased by the Company with proceeds received from the exercise of an Option will become available for issuance under this Plan or the Existing Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing and, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 14, the maximum number of Shares that may be issued upon the exercise of Incentive Stock Options will equal the aggregate Share number stated in Section 3(a), plus, to the extent allowable under Section 422 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, any Shares that become available for issuance under the Plan pursuant to Section 3(b). (c) Share Reserve. The Company, during the term of this Plan, will at all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares as will be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan. B-5 4. Administration of the Plan. (a) Procedure. (i) Multiple Administrative Bodies. Different Committees with respect to different groups of Service Providers may administer the Plan. (ii) Rule 16b-3. To the extent desirable to qualify transactions hereunder as exempt under Rule 16b-3, the transactions contemplated hereunder will be structured to satisfy the requirements for exemption under Rule 16b-3. (iii) Other Administration. Other than as provided above, the Plan will be administered by (A) the Board or (B) a Committee, which committee will be constituted to satisfy Applicable Laws. (b) Powers of the Administrator. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, and in the case of a Committee, subject to the specific duties delegated by the Board to such Committee, the Administrator will have the authority, in its discretion: (i) to determine the Fair Market Value; (ii) to select the Service Providers to whom Awards may be granted hereunder; (iii) to determine the number of Shares to be covered by each Award granted hereunder; (iv) to approve forms of Award Agreements for use under the Plan; (v) to determine the terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, of any Award granted hereunder. Such terms and conditions include, but are not limited to, the exercise price, the time or times when Awards may be exercised (which may be based on performance criteria), any vesting acceleration or waiver of forfeiture restrictions, and any restriction or limitation regarding any Award or the Shares relating thereto, based in each case on such factors as the Administrator will determine; (vi) to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and Awards granted pursuant to the Plan; (vii) to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan, including rules and regulations relating to sub-plans established for the purpose of satisfying applicable foreign laws or for qualifying for favorable tax treatment under applicable foreign laws; (viii) to modify or amend each Award (subject to Section 5 and Section 19 of the Plan), including but not limited to the discretionary authority to extend the post-termination exercisability period of Awards; (ix) to allow Participants to satisfy Tax Obligations in such manner as prescribed in Section 15 of the Plan; (x) to authorize any person to execute on behalf of the Company any instrument required to effect the grant of an Award previously granted by the Administrator; (xi) to allow a Participant to defer the receipt of the payment of cash or the delivery of Shares that would otherwise be due to such Participant under an Award; and (xii) to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for administering the Plan. (c) Effect of Administrator’s Decision. The Administrator’s decisions, determinations and interpretations will be final and binding on all Participants and any other holders of Awards and will be given the maximum deference permitted by law. B-6 5. Limits. (a) Share Limits. Subject to Section 14, the limits specified below shall be applicable to Awards issued under the Plan: (i) Limits on Options. No Participant shall receive Options during any Fiscal Year covering in excess of 1,500,000 Shares; provided, however, that in connection with a Participant’s initial service as an Employee, the Participant may be granted Options covering up to an additional 1,500,000 Shares. (ii) Limits on Stock Appreciation Rights. No Participant shall receive Stock Appreciation Rights during any Fiscal Year covering in excess of 1,500,000 Shares; provided, however, that in connection with a Participant’s initial service as an Employee, the Participant may be granted Stock Appreciation Rights covering up to an additional 1,500,000 Shares. (iii) Limits on Restricted Stock. No Participant shall receive Awards of Restricted Stock during any Fiscal Year covering in excess of 1,500,000 Shares; provided, however, that in connection with a Participant’s initial service as an Employee, the Participant may be granted an aggregate of up to an additional 1,500,000 Shares of Restricted Stock. (iv) Limits on Restricted Stock Units. No Participant shall receive Restricted Stock Units during any Fiscal Year covering in excess of 1,500,000 Shares; provided, however, that in connection with a Participant’s initial service as an Employee, the Participant may be granted Restricted Stock Units covering an aggregate of up to an additional 1,500,000 Shares. (v) Limits on Performance Shares. No Participant shall receive Performance Shares during any Fiscal Year covering in excess of 1,500,000 Shares; provided, however, that in connection with a Participant’s initial service as an Employee, the Participant may be granted Performance Shares covering up to an additional 1,500,000 Shares. (vi) Limits on Performance Units. No Participant shall receive Performance Units during any Fiscal Year with an aggregate Initial Value in excess of $7,500,000. (b) Outside Director Share Limits. No Outside Director may be granted, in any Fiscal Year, Awards (the value of which will be based on their grant date fair value determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles) and any other compensation (including without limitation any cash retainers or fees) that, in the aggregate, exceed $750,000, provided that such amount is increased to $1,000,000 in the Fiscal Year of his or her initial service as an Outside Director. Any Awards or other compensation provided to an individual for his or her services as an Employee, or for his or her services as a Consultant other than an Outside Director, will be excluded for purposes of this Section 5(b). (c) Vesting Limits. (i) One-Year Vesting Requirement. Awards granted under the Plan shall vest no earlier than the one (1) year anniversary of the Award’s date of grant, provided that the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may provide an Award may accelerate vesting by reason of the Participant’s death, Disability or retirement, or a termination of the Participant’s service that occurs in connection with a Change in Control, and provided further, that, notwithstanding the foregoing in this sentence, Awards that result in the issuance of an aggregate of up to 5% of the Shares reserved for issuance under Section 3(a) may be granted to Service Providers, or outstanding Awards modified, without regard to such minimum vesting, exercisability and distribution provisions. (ii) Limited Vesting Acceleration upon a Change in Control. Except (x) as permitted under Section 5(c)(i) and (y) for any Awards made to Outside Directors, the Administrator shall not be permitted to accelerate the vesting of an Award upon a Change in Control other than in the event an Award is not assumed or substituted for as provided for in Section 14(c). For purposes of clarification, the Administrator will be permitted to provide for the acceleration of an Award in connection with a termination of service upon or in connection with a Change in Control. B-7 (d) Incentive Stock Options. (i) $100,000 Limitation. Notwithstanding any designation of an Option as an Incentive Stock Option, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by the Participant during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and any Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000), the portion of the Options falling within such limit will be Incentive Stock Options and the excess Options will be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options. For these purposes, Incentive Stock Options will be taken into account in the order in which they were granted. The Fair Market Value of the Shares will be determined as of the time the Option with respect to such Shares is granted. (ii) Maximum Option Term. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the term of an Option will be ten (10) years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided by the Administrator and set forth in the Award Agreement. Moreover, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Participant who, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the term of the Incentive Stock Option will be five (5) years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement. (iii) Option Exercise Price. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an Employee who, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the per Share exercise price will be no less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. An Incentive Stock Option granted to any Employee other than an Employee described in immediately preceding sentence, the per Share exercise price will be no less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this subsection (iii), Incentive Stock Options may be granted with a per Share exercise price of less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant pursuant to a transaction described in, and in a manner consistent with, Section 424(a) of the Code. (e) No Exchange Program or Repricing. The Administrator may not implement an Exchange Program. (f) Dividends. With respect to any Options and Stock Appreciation Rights, until the Shares are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company) thereunder, no right to receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder will exist with respect to the Shares subject to such Award, including without limitation notwithstanding any exercise of such Award. Further, no adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued under an Option or Stock Appreciation Right, except as provided in Section 14 of the Plan. During any applicable Period of Restriction, Service Providers holding Shares of Restricted Stock will be entitled to receive all dividends and other distributions paid with respect to such Shares, unless the Administrator provides otherwise; provided, however, that any such dividends or distributions payable with respect to such Shares will be subject to the same restrictions on transferability and/or forfeitability as the Shares of Restricted Stock with respect to which they were paid. With respect to Awards of Restricted Stock Units, Performance Units and Performance Shares, until the Shares are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder will exist with respect to the Shares subject to such Award, unless determined otherwise by the Administrator; provided, however, that any such dividends or distributions that the Administrator determines will be payable with respect to such Shares will be subject to the same vesting criteria and forfeitability provisions as the Shares subject to such Award with respect to which they were paid. For the avoidance of doubt, the number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan will not be reduced to reflect any dividends or other distributions that are reinvested into additional Shares or credited as additional Shares subject to or paid with respect to an Award. 6. Eligibility. Nonstatutory Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Shares and Performance Units may be granted to Service Providers. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Employees. B-8 7. Stock Options. (a) Grant of Options. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, an Option may be granted to Service Providers at any time and from time to time as will be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion. Each Option will be designated in the Award Agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Stock Option. (b) Number of Shares. The Administrator will have complete discretion to determine the number of Shares subject to Options granted to any Participant, subject to Section 5. (c) Term of Option. The term of each Option will be determined by the Administrator and stated in the Award Agreement, but in no event shall the term of an Option be more than ten (10) years from the date of grant. (d) Option Exercise Price and Consideration. (i) Exercise Price. The per share exercise price for the Shares to be issued pursuant to exercise of an Option will be determined by the Administrator, but shall in no event be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant, subject to Section 5. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Options may be granted with a per Share exercise price of less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant pursuant to a transaction described in, and in a manner consistent with, Section 424(a) of the Code. (ii) Waiting Period and Exercise Dates. At the time an Option is granted, the Administrator will fix the period within which the Option may be exercised and will determine any conditions that must be satisfied before the Option may be exercised. (iii) Form of Consideration. The Administrator will determine the acceptable form of consideration for exercising an Option, including the method of payment. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the Administrator will determine the acceptable form of consideration at the time of grant. Such consideration may consist entirely of: (1) cash; (2) check; (3) promissory note, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, (4) other Shares, provided that such Shares have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which such Option will be exercised and provided that accepting such Shares will not result in any adverse accounting consequences to the Company, as the Administrator determines in its sole discretion; (5) consideration received by the Company under a broker-assisted (or other) cashless exercise program (whether through a broker or otherwise) implemented by the Company in connection with the Plan; (6) by net exercise; (7) such other consideration and method of payment for the issuance of Shares to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws; or (8) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment. (e) Exercise of Option. (i) Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Stockholder. Any Option granted hereunder will be exercisable according to the terms of the Plan and at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator and set forth in the Award Agreement. An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. An Option will be deemed exercised when the Company receives: (i) a notice of exercise (in such form as the Administrator may specify from time to time) from the person entitled to exercise the Option, and (ii) full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised (together with applicable withholding taxes). Full payment may consist of any consideration and method of payment authorized by the Administrator and permitted by the Award Agreement and the Plan. Shares issued upon exercise of an Option will be issued in the name of the Participant or, if requested by the Participant, in the name of the Participant and his or her spouse. The Company will issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares promptly after the Option is exercised. Exercising an Option in any manner will decrease the number of Shares thereafter available, both for purposes of the Plan and for sale under the Option, by the number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised. (ii) Termination of Relationship as a Service Provider. If a Participant ceases to be a Service Provider, other than as the result of the Participant’s death or Disability, the Participant may exercise his or her Option within such period of time as is specified in the Award Agreement to the extent that the Option is vested on B-9 the date of termination of Participant’s status as a Service Provider (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement). In the absence of a specified time in the Award Agreement, the Option will remain exercisable for three (3) months following the termination of Participant’s status as a Service Provider, but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, if on the date of termination of Participant’s status as a Service Provider, the Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option will revert to the Plan. If after termination the Participant does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified by the Administrator, the Option will terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option will revert to the Plan. (iii) Disability of Participant. If a Participant ceases to be a Service Provider as a result of the Participant’s Disability, the Participant may exercise his or her Option within such period of time as is specified in the Award Agreement to the extent the Option is vested on the date of death (but in no event may the Option be exercised later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement). In the absence of a specified time in the Award Agreement, the Option will remain exercisable for twelve (12) months following termination of Participant’s status as a Service Provider, but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, if on the date of termination of Participant’s status as a Service Provider, the Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option will revert to the Plan. If after termination the Participant does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein, the Option will terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option will revert to the Plan. (iv) Death of Participant. If a Participant dies while a Service Provider, the Option may be exercised following the Participant’s death within such period of time as is specified in the Award Agreement to the extent the Option is vested on the date of termination of Participant’s status as a Service Provider (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement). In the absence of a specified time in the Award Agreement, the Option will remain exercisable for twelve (12) months following termination of Participant’s status as a Service Provider, but in no event may the Option be exercised later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, if at the time of death Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option will immediately revert to the Plan. If the Option is not so exercised within the time specified herein, the Option will terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option will revert to the Plan. In the event that the Participant dies while a Service Provider, but before the expiration of the Participant’s Option as set forth in subsections (iii) or (iv), as applicable, all or part of the Option (to the extent vested) may be exercised (prior to expiration) by the Participant’s designated beneficiary, provided such beneficiary has been properly designated prior to Participant’s death in a form acceptable to the Administrator and to the extent permitted by Applicable Law. In the absence of such designated beneficiary (or to the extent not permitted by Applicable Law), such Option may be exercised by the personal representative of the Participant’s estate or by the person(s) to whom the Option is transferred pursuant to the Participant’s will or in accordance with the laws of descent and distribution. 8. Restricted Stock. (a) Grant of Restricted Stock. Subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan, the Administrator, at any time and from time to time, may grant Shares of Restricted Stock to Service Providers in such amounts as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, will determine. (b) Restricted Stock Agreement. Each Award of Restricted Stock will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that will specify the Period of Restriction (if any), the number of Shares granted, and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, will determine. Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, the Company as escrow agent will hold Shares of Restricted Stock until the restrictions on such Shares have lapsed. (c) Transferability. Except as provided in this Section 8 or the Award Agreement, Shares of Restricted Stock may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated until the end of the applicable Period of Restriction. B-10 (d) Other Restrictions. The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may impose such other restrictions on Shares of Restricted Stock as it may deem advisable or appropriate. (e) Removal of Restrictions. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 8, Shares of Restricted Stock covered by each Restricted Stock grant made under the Plan will be released from escrow as soon as practicable after the last day of the Period of Restriction or at such other time as the Administrator may determine. Subject to the vesting limitations under Section 5, the Administrator, in its discretion, may accelerate the time at which any restrictions will lapse or be removed. (f) Voting Rights. During the Period of Restriction, Service Providers holding Shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder may exercise full voting rights with respect to those Shares, unless the Administrator determines otherwise. (g) Return of Restricted Stock to Company. On the date set forth in the Award Agreement, the Restricted Stock for which restrictions have not lapsed will revert to the Company and again will become available for grant under the Plan. 9. Restricted Stock Units. (a) Grant. Restricted Stock Units may be granted at any time and from time to time as determined by the Administrator. Each Restricted Stock Unit grant will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that will specify such terms and conditions as the Administrator in its sole discretion determines, including all terms, conditions, and restrictions related to the grant, the number of Restricted Stock Units and the form of payout, which, subject to Section 9(d), may be left to the discretion of the Administrator. (b) Vesting Criteria and Other Terms. The Administrator will set vesting criteria in its discretion, which, depending on the extent to which the criteria are met, will determine the number of Restricted Stock Units that will be paid out to the Participant. The Administrator may set vesting criteria based upon the achievement of Company-wide, divisional, business unit, or individual goals (including, but not limited to, continued employment or service), applicable federal or state securities laws or any other basis determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion. (c) Earning Restricted Stock Units. Upon meeting the applicable vesting criteria, the Participant will be entitled to receive a payout as determined by the Administrator. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the vesting limitations under Section 5, at any time after the grant of Restricted Stock Units, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may reduce or waive any vesting criteria that must be met to receive a payout. (d) Form and Timing of Payment. Payment of earned Restricted Stock Units will be made as soon as practicable after the date(s) determined by the Administrator and set forth in the Award Agreement. The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may pay earned Restricted Stock Units in cash, Shares, or a combination of both. (e) Cancellation. On the date set forth in the Award Agreement, all unearned Restricted Stock Units will be forfeited to the Company. 10. Stock Appreciation Rights. (a) Grant of Stock Appreciation Rights. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, a Stock Appreciation Right may be granted to Service Providers at any time and from time to time as will be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion. (b) Number of Shares. The Administrator will have complete discretion to determine the number of Stock Appreciation Rights granted to any Service Provider. (c) Exercise Price and Other Terms. The per share exercise price for the Shares to be issued pursuant to exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right will be determined by the Administrator and will be no less than one B-11 hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. Otherwise, the Administrator, subject to the provisions of the Plan, will have complete discretion to determine the terms and conditions of Stock Appreciation Rights granted under the Plan. (d) Stock Appreciation Right Agreement. Each Stock Appreciation Right grant will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that will specify the exercise price, the term of the Stock Appreciation Right, the conditions of exercise, and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, will determine. (e) Expiration of Stock Appreciation Rights. A Stock Appreciation Right granted under the Plan will expire upon the date determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, and set forth in the Award Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the rules of Section 7(c) relating to the maximum term and Section 7(e) relating to exercise also will apply to Stock Appreciation Rights. (f) Payment of Stock Appreciation Right Amount. Upon exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right, a Participant will be entitled to receive payment from the Company in an amount determined by multiplying: (i) The difference between the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise over the exercise price; times (ii) The number of Shares with respect to which the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised. At the discretion of the Administrator, the payment upon Stock Appreciation Right exercise may be in cash, in Shares of equivalent value, or in some combination thereof. 11. Performance Units and Performance Shares. (a) Grant of Performance Units/Shares. Performance Units and Performance Shares may be granted to Service Providers at any time and from time to time, as will be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion. The Administrator will have complete discretion in determining the number of Performance Units and Performance Shares granted to each Participant. (b) Value of Performance Units/Shares. Each Performance Unit will have an initial value that is established by the Administrator on or before the date of grant. Each Performance Share will have an initial value equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant. (c) Performance Objectives and Other Terms. The Administrator will set performance objectives or other vesting provisions (including, without limitation, continued status as a Service Provider) in its discretion which, depending on the extent to which they are met, will determine the number or value of Performance Units/Shares that will be paid out to the Participant. Each Award of Performance Units/Shares will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that will specify the Performance Period, and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, will determine. The Administrator may set performance objectives based upon the achievement of Company-wide, divisional, business unit or individual goals (including, but not limited to, continued employment or service), applicable federal or state securities laws, or any other basis determined by the Administrator in its discretion. (d) Earning of Performance Units/Shares. After the applicable Performance Period has ended, the holder of Performance Units/Shares will be entitled to receive a payout of the number of Performance Units/Shares earned by the Participant over the Performance Period, to be determined as a function of the extent to which the corresponding performance objectives or other vesting provisions have been achieved. After the grant of a Performance Unit/Share, subject to the vesting limitations under Section 5, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may reduce or waive any performance objectives or other vesting provisions for such Performance Unit/Share. (e) Form and Timing of Payment of Performance Units/Shares. Payment of earned Performance Units/ Shares will be made as soon as practicable after the expiration of the applicable Performance Period. The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may pay earned Performance Units/Shares in the form of cash, in Shares (which have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the value of the earned Performance Units/Shares at the close of the applicable Performance Period) or in a combination thereof. B-12 (f) Cancellation of Performance Units/Shares. On the date set forth in the Award Agreement, all unearned or unvested Performance Units/Shares will be forfeited to the Company, and again will be available for grant under the Plan. 12. Service Provider Status. (a) Leaves of Absence/Transfer Between Locations. Unless the Administrator provides otherwise, vesting of Awards granted hereunder will be suspended during any unpaid leave of absence. A Service Provider will not cease to be an Employee or Director in the case of (i) any leave of absence approved by the Company or (ii) transfers between locations of the Company or between the Company, its Parent, or any Subsidiary. For purposes of Incentive Stock Options, no leave of absence may exceed three (3) months, unless reemployment upon expiration of such leave is guaranteed by statute or contract. If reemployment upon expiration of a leave of absence approved by the Company is not so guaranteed, then six (6) months following the first (1st) day of such leave any Incentive Stock Option held by the Participant will cease to be treated as an Incentive Stock Option and will be treated for tax purposes as a Nonstatutory Stock Option. 13. Transferability of Awards. Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, an Award may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Participant, only by the Participant. If the Administrator makes an Award transferable, such Award will contain such additional terms and conditions as the Administrator deems appropriate. 14. Adjustments; Dissolution or Liquidation; Merger or Change in Control. (a) Adjustments. In the event that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, other securities, or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, reincorporation, reclassification, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of Shares or other securities of the Company, or other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Shares occurs, the Administrator, in order to prevent diminution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan, will adjust the number and class of Shares that may be delivered under the Plan and/or the number, class, and price of Shares covered by each outstanding Award, and the numerical Share limits in Sections 3 and 5 of the Plan. (b) Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Administrator will notify each Participant as soon as practicable prior to the effective date of such proposed transaction. To the extent it has not been previously exercised, an Award will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action. (c) Change in Control. In the event of a merger of the Company with or into another corporation or other entity or a Change in Control, each outstanding Award will be treated as the Administrator determines, in accordance with the following (i) Awards will be assumed or an equivalent option or right substituted by the acquiring or succeeding corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary thereof, (ii) upon written notice to a Participant and subject to the next paragraph, that the Participant’s Awards will terminate upon or immediately prior to the consummation of such merger or Change in Control; (iii) subject to the next paragraph, (A) the termination of an Award in exchange for an amount of cash and/or property, if any, equal to the amount that would have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights as of the date of the occurrence of the transaction (and, for the avoidance of doubt, if as of the date of the occurrence of the transaction the Administrator determines in good faith that no amount would have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights, then such Award may be terminated by the Company without payment), or (B) the replacement of such Award with other rights or property selected by the Administrator in its sole discretion; or (iv) any combination of the foregoing. The Administrator will not be required to treat all Awards, all Awards held by a Participant, or all Awards of the same type, similarly in the transaction. In the event that the successor corporation does not assume or substitute for the Award (and for the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding the vesting limitations under Section 5) (or portion of the Award), (A) the Participant will fully vest in and have the right to exercise such outstanding Option and Stock Appreciation Right, B-13 including Shares as to which such Award would not otherwise be vested or exercisable, (B) all restrictions on such Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units will lapse, and (C) with respect to such Award with performance- based vesting, all performance goals or other vesting criteria will be deemed achieved based on actual performance measured through the last date that the Award remains outstanding (or such earlier date, as determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion), with any performance period shortened proportionately and applicable performance goals or other vesting criteria adjusted proportionately to reflect the shortened performance period (or to the extent applicable, the value of the consideration to be received by the Company’s stockholders in connection with the merger or Change in Control), as determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion. In addition, if an Option or Stock Appreciation Right is not assumed or substituted in the event of a merger or Change in Control, the Administrator will notify the Participant in writing or electronically that the Option or Stock Appreciation Right will be exercisable for a period of time determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion, and the Option or Stock Appreciation Right will terminate upon the expiration of such period. For the purposes of this subsection (c), an Award will be considered assumed if, following the merger or Change in Control, the Award confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share subject to the Award immediately prior to the merger or Change in Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the merger or Change in Control by holders of Common Stock for each Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the merger or Change in Control is not solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent, the Administrator may, with the consent of the successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right or upon the payout of a Restricted Stock Unit, Performance Unit or Performance Share, for each Share subject to such Award, to be solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the merger or Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 14(c) to the contrary, an Award that vests, is earned or paid-out upon the satisfaction of one or more performance goals will not be considered assumed if the Company or its successor modifies any of such performance goals without the Participant’s consent; provided, however, a modification to such performance goals only to reflect the successor corporation’s post-Change in Control corporate structure will not be deemed to invalidate an otherwise valid Award assumption. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 14(c) to the contrary, if a payment under an Award Agreement is subject to Section 409A and if the change in control definition contained in the Award Agreement does not comply with the definition of “change in control” for purposes of a distribution under Section 409A, then any payment of an amount that otherwise is accelerated under this Section will be delayed until the earliest time that such payment would be permissible under Section 409A without triggering any penalties applicable under Section 409A. 15. Tax. (a) Withholding Requirements. Prior to the delivery of any Shares or cash pursuant to an Award (or exercise thereof) or such earlier time as any Tax Obligations are due, the Company will have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy all Tax Obligations with respect to such Award (or exercise thereof). (b) Withholding Arrangements. The Administrator, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, may permit a Participant to satisfy such Tax Obligation, in whole or in part by (without limitation) (a) paying cash, (b) having the Company withhold otherwise deliverable cash or Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum statutory amount required to be withheld, (c) delivering to the Company already-owned Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum statutory amount required to be withheld, provided the delivery of such Shares will not result in adverse accounting consequences as the Administrator determines in its sole discretion, or (d) selling a sufficient number of Shares otherwise deliverable to the Participant through such means as the Administrator may determine in its sole discretion (whether through a broker or otherwise) equal to the amount required to be withheld. The Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld or delivered will be determined as of the date that such Shares are withheld or delivered, as applicable. B-14 (c) Compliance with Section 409A. Awards will be designed and operated in such a manner that they are either exempt from the application of, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A such that the grant, payment, settlement or deferral will not be subject to the additional tax or interest applicable under Section 409A, except as otherwise determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator. The Plan and each Award Agreement under the Plan is intended to meet the requirements of Section 409A and will be construed and interpreted in accordance with such intent, except as otherwise determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator. To the extent that an Award or payment, or the settlement or deferral thereof, is subject to Section 409A the Award will be granted, paid, settled or deferred in a manner that will meet the requirements of Section 409A, such that the grant, payment, settlement or deferral will not be subject to the additional tax or interest applicable under Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or other affiliate of the Company have any liability or obligation to reimburse, indemnify, or hold harmless any Participant for any taxes, interest, or penalties imposed, or other costs incurred, as a result of Section 409A. 16. No Effect on Employment or Service. Neither the Plan nor any Award will confer upon a Participant any right with respect to continuing the Participant’s relationship as a Service Provider with the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, nor will they interfere in any way with the Participant’s right or the right of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, as applicable, to terminate such relationship at any time, with or without cause, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws. 17. Date of Grant. The date of grant of an Award will be, for all purposes, the date on which the Administrator makes the determination granting such Award, or such other later date as is determined by the Administrator. Notice of the determination will be provided to each Participant within a reasonable time after the date of such grant. 18. Term of Plan. Subject to Section 23 of the Plan, the Plan will become effective upon approval of the Plan by the stockholders of the Company. It will continue in effect for a term of ten (10) years from the date of such stockholder approval, unless terminated earlier under Section 19 of the Plan. 19. Amendment and Termination of the Plan. (a) Amendment and Termination. The Administrator may at any time amend, alter, suspend or terminate the Plan. (b) Stockholder Approval. The Company will obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with Applicable Laws. (c) Effect of Amendment or Termination. No amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of the Plan will impair the rights of any Participant, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Participant and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Participant and the Company. Termination of the Plan will not affect the Administrator’s ability to exercise the powers granted to it hereunder with respect to Awards granted under the Plan prior to the date of such termination. 20. Forfeiture Events. The Administrator may specify in an Award Agreement that the Participant’s rights, payments, and benefits with respect to an Award will be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture, or recoupment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, in addition to any otherwise applicable vesting or performance conditions of an Award. Notwithstanding any contrary provisions to the contrary under this Plan, an Award shall be subject to the Company’s clawback policy as may be established and/or amended from time to time (the “Clawback Policy”). The Administrator may require a Participant to forfeit, return or reimburse the Company all or a portion of the Award and any amounts paid thereunder pursuant to the terms of the Clawback Policy or as necessary or appropriate to comply with Applicable Laws. 21. Conditions upon Issuance of Shares. (a) Legal Compliance. Shares will not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Award unless the exercise of such Award and the issuance and delivery of such Shares will comply with Applicable Laws and will be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance. B-15 (b) Investment Representations. As a condition to the exercise of an Award, the Company may require the person exercising such Award to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required. 22. Inability to Obtain Authority. The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction or to complete or comply with the requirements of any registration or other qualification of the Shares under any state, federal or foreign law or under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the stock exchange on which Shares of the same class are then listed, or any other governmental or regulatory body, which authority, registration, qualification or rule compliance is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary or advisable for the issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, will relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority, registration, qualification or rule compliance will not have been obtained. 23.

BUSINESS Overview Part I Infinera Corporation (“we,” “us,” “our”, “Infinera” or the "Company") is a global supplier of networking solutions comprised of networking equipment, software and services. Our portfolio of solutions includes optical transport platforms, converged packet-optical transport platforms, compact modular platforms, optical line systems, disaggregated router platforms, a suite of networking and automation software offerings, and support and professional services. Our customers include telecommunications service providers, internet content providers (“ICPs”), cable providers, wholesale carriers, research and education institutions, large enterprises and government entities. Our networking solutions enable our customers to deliver high-bandwidth business and consumer communications services. Our comprehensive portfolio of networking solutions also enables our customers to scale their transport networks as end-user services and applications continue to drive growth in demand for network bandwidth. These end-user services and applications include, but are not limited to, high-speed internet access, business Ethernet services, 4G/5G mobile broadband, cloud-based services, high-definition video streaming services, virtual and augmented reality and the Internet of Things (“IoT”). Our systems are highly scalable, flexible and designed with open networking principles for ease of deployment. We build our systems using a combination of internally manufactured and third-party components. Our portfolio includes systems that leverage our innovative, vertically integrated optical engine technology, comprised of large-scale photonic integrated circuits (“PICs”) and digital signal processors (“DSPs”). We optimize the manufacturing process by using indium phosphide to build our PICs, which enables the integration of hundreds of optical functions onto a set of semiconductor chips. This large-scale integration of our PICs and advanced DSPs allows us to deliver high-performance transport networking platforms with features that customers care about the most, including cost per bit, low power consumption and space savings. In addition, we design our optical engines to increase the capacity and reach performance of our products by leveraging coherent optical transmission. We believe our vertical integration strategy becomes increasingly more valuable as our customers transition to 800 gigabits per second (“Gb/s”) per wavelength transmission speeds and beyond, as the combination of our optical integration, DSP, and tightly integrated packaging enables leading optical performance at higher optical speeds with increased spectral efficiency. Over the past several years, we expanded our portfolio of solutions, evolving from our initial focus on the long-haul and subsea optical transport markets to offer packet-optical networking solutions that address multiple market segments within the end-to-end transport infrastructure. These markets include metro access, metro aggregation and switching, data center interconnect (“DCI”), and long-haul and subsea transport. We have grown our solutions portfolio through internal development as well as acquisitions. In 2014, we introduced the Infinera Cloud Xpress to address the emerging DCI market opportunity. In 2015, we entered the metro market with the acquisition of Transmode AB (“Transmode”), a leader in metro packet-optical applications. In October 2018, we expanded our product portfolio and customer base through the acquisition of Telecom Holding Parent LLC (“Coriant”), a privately held global supplier of open network solutions for the largest global network operators (the “Acquisition”). The Acquisition has helped position us as one of the largest providers of vertically integrated transport networking solutions in the world and enhanced our ability to serve a global customer base and accelerate the delivery of the innovative solutions our customers demand. The Acquisition has also enabled us to expand the breadth of customer applications we can address, including 600 Gb/s coherent optical transport, metro aggregation and switching, disaggregated routing, and software-enabled multi- layer network management and control. Our high-speed optical transport platforms are differentiated by our Infinite Capacity Engine (ICE) coherent optical engine technology. ICE enables different subsystems that can be customized for a variety of network applications in different transport markets, including metro, DCI, long-haul and subsea. Our latest generation of coherent optical engine technology delivers multi-terabit opto-electronic subsystems powered by our fifth-generation PIC and latest generation FlexCoherent DSP (the combination of which we market as “ICE6”). ICE6 is capable of delivering 800 Gb/s over a single wavelength. ICE6 will be integrated into various networking platforms in our product portfolio. Our products are designed to be managed by a suite of software solutions that enable simplified network management, multi-layer service orchestration, and automated operations. We also provide software- 1 enabled programmability that offers differentiated capabilities such as Instant Bandwidth. Combined with our differentiated hardware solutions, Instant Bandwidth enables our customers to purchase and activate bandwidth as needed through our unique software licensing feature set. This, in turn, allows our customers to accomplish two key objectives: (1) limit their initial network startup costs and investments; and (2) instantly activate new bandwidth as their customers’ and their own network capacity needs evolve. We believe our portfolio of solutions benefits our customers by providing a unique combination of highly scalable capacity and features that address various transport network applications and ultimately simplify and automate network operations. Our high-performance optical transport solutions leverage the industry shift to open optical network architectures and enable our customers to efficiently and cost-effectively meet bandwidth demand, which continues to grow 30%-35% year over year. We were incorporated in December 2000 and originally operated under the name “Zepton Networks.” We are incorporated in the State of Delaware. Our principal executive offices are located at 6373 San Ignacio Avenue, San Jose, CA 95119. Our telephone number is (408) 572-5200. “Infinera,” “Infinera DTN-X,” “FlexCoherent,” “Infinera Groove,” “Infinera mTera,” “Infinera DRX,” “Infinera Transcend” and the Infinera logo, are trademarks or service marks of Infinera Corporation in the United States, certain other countries and/or the European Union. Any other trademarks or trade names mentioned are the property of their respective owners. Industry Background Optical transport networking equipment carries digital information using light waves over fiber optic cables. With the advent of wavelength division multiplexing (“WDM”) systems, data is transmitted by using multiple wavelengths of light using different frequencies or colors over a single optical fiber. Customers deploy WDM systems to carry information between continents, across countries, between cities and within metropolitan areas, and in some cases all the way to the end-user. Fiber optic networks are generally capable of carrying most types of communications traffic. We believe that a number of trends in the communications industry are driving demand for large amounts of network bandwidth and ultimately will increase demand for packet-optical transport networking systems and software. These trends include: • • • • • growth of cloud services; growth of over-the-top services and high-definition video streaming; growth of mobile broadband services, including 4G and emerging 5G services; increasing use of connected virtual and augmented reality devices; and the IoT, which continues to drive massive growth in the number of network-connected devices. As network traffic grows, customers add transmission capacity to existing optical networks or deploy new systems to address bandwidth demands and offer expanded services to end-users. We believe we are in the midst of an important shift in transport network architectures that impact the markets we serve. The shift to open and disaggregated networks is increasingly being embraced by the communications industry. Examples of this trend include separation of compute, storage, and networking in data centers, the separation of hardware, operating system and apps in smart phones, hardware/software separation in network function virtualization (NFV) and hardware and software routing stack routers, and open RAN initiatives for 5G. Industry evolution is now enabling optical networking to leverage these same principles of openness and disaggregation. Optical networking technology has evolved to enable open networks at the physical and management layer. These technologies allow network operators to move from a traditional vendor locked-in model to a more flexible model where they can choose from a collection of modular, best-of-breed solutions from different suppliers for each network function. Open and standards-based interfaces ease the integration into a unified network architecture. The shift to open optical networking provides network operators with key benefits that include: • Accelerated innovation cycles: By leveraging the full innovation capabilities of the optical ecosystem, network operators are able to select best-in-class technologies and vendors independently throughout the network lifecycle. And solution providers can develop innovative technologies for specific network functions without having to supply end-to-end networking solutions significantly broadening the innovation ecosystem. 2 • Optimized network architectures: By selecting the ideal products and technologies for each layer and domain of the network independently, network operators are able to optimize their optical network for specific applications and services and avoid the constraints of a single-vendor for one- size-fits-all solutions. • Improved network economics: Open optical networks enables cost-per-bit reducing innovations to be quickly deployed throughout the network lifecycle, with customized multi-vendor network designs providing additional scope for cost-optimization as capacity and service demands evolve. A second shift is happening at the edge of the network, where fiber continues to be deployed closer to the end-user to deliver an improved, low latency customer experience. This trend is frequently referred to as “Fiber Deep,” and primarily occurs in two types of access networks: 4G/5G mobile transport networks and next- generation cable and multiple system operator (“MSO”) networks. As end-user bandwidth demand continues to grow exponentially, this trend is driving the need for high-performance coherent optics at the edge of the network. We believe both of these trends require cost-efficient scalability, higher density and lower power per bit networking solutions with open network capabilities and high-performance optical engine technology. Strategy Our goal is to be the preeminent provider of high-performance transport technologies and solutions that enable customers to cost-efficiently scale network capacity and launch new services in response to increasing end-user bandwidth demand. Key aspects of our strategy include: • Leveraging our vertically integrated solutions to deliver lowest total cost network solutions. We will continue to provide our customers differentiated value by leveraging our vertically integrated optical engine. This value includes significant cost advantages that our innovative PIC and DSP technology enable, including service agility, spectral efficiency, optical performance leadership and reliability, industry-leading optical scalability, and high-density and ultra-power efficient platforms. Our strategy is to continue to evolve our unique optical technology with higher speed and increasingly efficient capabilities, integrating our vertically integrated optical engines across a broad range of our open optical networking platforms. • Driving cost structure optimization and achieving cost advantages of scale. Leveraging scale as part of our vertical integration strategy, which includes integration of our optical engine across a broader set of platforms, enables us to achieve cost advantages and cost structure efficiencies that enhance our ability to continue to invest in research and development in our optical engine and end-to-end portfolio, as well as drive profitability. In particular, we believe our vertically integrated in-house manufacturing capabilities serve as a competitive advantage from a technology and supply chain perspective, and enable a lower cost structure and thus, higher profitability. To further drive cost structure optimization, we are transforming our supply chain to enable us to move from a fixed cost structure to an increasingly outsourced model that will allow for enhanced flexibility in our delivery capabilities to better support customers, while optimizing our cost leverage. • Building open optical networking solutions. Our strategy is focused on leveraging open optical networking principles, including disaggregated networking solutions and industry-leading optical technology with open APIs and standardized data models to offer our customers best-in-class solutions and create insertion opportunities to gain market share. Open optical networking provides benefits for both network operators and innovative solution providers. These benefits include accelerating innovation cycles, enabling optimized and differentiated networking solutions, and the ability to transform network economics. • Delivering a superior customer experience. Our success will continue to be driven by our commitment to providing a superior experience to all customers. In addition to product delivery capability that efficiently and predictably delivers innovative technology and high-quality products to market, we bring value to our customers by providing end-to-end solutions with differentiation that includes usage-based bandwidth provisioning, service agility and ease-of-use that accelerates time-to-revenue. Additionally, our global customer services team is committed to making our customers successful by providing the highest quality support services that help our customers deploy, operate and maintain their networks. We believe our technology leadership combined with 3 our ability to provide the most reliable products and a differentiated customer experience contribute to customer success and represent major differentiators. • Utilizing software-driven automation to deliver differentiated solutions. We believe we lead the industry in ease of use and automation, both integrated into our system design and facilitated by our software capabilities. We continue to invest in our differentiated technologies, including enhancing capabilities of Instant Bandwidth offerings and introducing automation and programmability capabilities. We are extending management and control capabilities across our entire product portfolio with the addition of a new orchestration solution. This new solution enables customers to utilize end-to-end network resources and the automation of multi-layer, multi-domain and multi-vendor networks. Additionally, based on our customers’ desire for more programmable networks, we have added open application programming interfaces (“APIs”) to our solutions to enable our customers to create more agile and customized automated operations. Customers, Products and Services Our customer verticals include: • • • • Tier 1 carriers for domestic and international networks; Tier 2 and Tier 3 carriers; ICP and cloud providers; cable providers and MSOs; • wholesale carriers; • • • • submarine network operators; large enterprise customers; research and education institutions; and government entities. In the markets we serve, we believe our customers seek the following solutions to meet growing bandwidth needs, increase their revenue, expand their service offerings and lower the total cost of their operations: • • • • high-bandwidth solutions that scale optical transmission capacity to meet increasing bandwidth demand while providing efficiency through service granularity; flexible, efficient and easy to deploy solutions that optimize performance and increase reliability while reducing physical space and power consumption, leading to lower operational and capital expenses; easy-to-use solutions that are highly programmable, open, and automated, which help reduce the time and complexity of deploying new transmission bandwidth; and strong encryption at the transport layer. We sell our products directly to our end-user customers and to channel partners that sell on our behalf. We do not have long-term sales commitments from our customers. One customer accounted for approximately 11%, 13% & 13% of the Company's revenue in 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. One other customer accounted for approximately 15% of the Company's revenue in 2018. No other customers accounted for over 10% of the Company's revenue in 2020, 2019 or 2018. We have focused our efforts and capital on developing high-performance, vertically integrated transport technologies and solutions that enable customers to cost-efficiently scale network capacity and launch new services in response increasing end-user bandwidth demand. Our products feature industry-leading optical performance for capacity-reach, high service port density, a low power profile, and multi-layer, application-aware software that allows fast and simple provisioning of network services. We believe one of our key differentiating capabilities is our deep vertical integration of high-end optical technology. Our Optical Innovation Center (OIC), which comprises a world-class team of scientists and engineers, is responsible for driving the opto-electronic innovations that are integrated into many of our coherent transport systems. Core OIC disciplines include coherent ASIC/DSP design, PIC design and manufacture, 4 analog ASIC design, advanced packaging design and manufacture, and holistic co-design, including the RF interconnect. The Infinera OIC has been responsible for many industry firsts, including the first large-scale PIC, the first coherent PIC, the first commercial super-channels, the first Nyquist subcarriers, and the first point-to- multipoint coherent technology. Additional OIC innovation highlights include soft-decision forward error correction gain sharing techniques and long-codeword probabilistic constellation shaping. These innovations enabled the fourth-generation Infinite Capacity Engine (ICE4) optical engine to set multiple subsea spectral efficiency records, and they are also behind the superior reach performance of our 800 Gb/s capable ICE6 optical engine and our industry-first point-to-multipoint XR optics technology. Financially, we believe our in-house developed technology approach enables improved manufacturing economics for optical networking, allowing future optical transport cost reductions to be viably sustained on a cost curve defined by volume manufacturing efficiencies and greater functional integration. These advantages also allow us to develop new technologies and solutions that offer our customers innovative ways to solve their business needs. In 2020, we introduced our sixth-generation Infinite Capacity Engine (“ICE6”) to the market. ICE6, which is designed to support high-capacity optical transmission with dual-channel 800 Gb/s and leading optical performance, builds on the market success of ICE4 and Instant Bandwidth with a 1.6 terabits per second ("Tb/s") optical engine, providing a path for network operators to meet the ongoing growth of bandwidth and increasingly dynamic, unpredictable traffic flows.

Our support organization continues to scale and provide world-class services that successfully support customers around the world. In addition, we continue to expand our services portfolio to meet the evolving needs of our customers. Competition Our current technologies and platforms support the metro, DCI, long-haul and subsea markets. The packet-optical networking equipment market is highly competitive and competition in the markets we serve is based on any one or a combination of the following factors: • • • • • • • • • • • • • price and other commercial terms; functionality; existing business and customer relationships; the ability of products and services to meet customers’ immediate and future network requirements; power consumption; heat dissipation; form factor or density; installation and operational simplicity; quality and reliability; service and support; security and encryption requirements; scalability and investment protection; and product lead times. Competition in the packet-optical equipment market is intense, with consolidation and geopolitical market shifts creating new competitive dynamics. In the long-haul market, our main competitors include WDM systems suppliers such as Ciena, Huawei, Nokia and ZTE. In the metro market, we face the same competitors as in long-haul, plus Cisco, ADVA Optical Networking, Ribbon Communications, and Fujitsu among others. In the DCI market we also face competition from vendors that are selling optical components directly to customers as opposed to WDM systems. In addition to our current competitors, other companies have, or may in the future, develop products that are, or could be, competitive with our products. We also may encounter competitor consolidation in the markets in which we compete, which could lead to a changing competitive landscape, capabilities and market share, and could impact our results of operations. Some of our competitors have substantially greater name recognition, technical, financial and marketing resources, and better-established relationships with potential customers than we have. Many of our competitors 8 have more resources and more experience in developing or acquiring new products and technologies, and in creating market awareness for those products and technologies. In addition, many of our competitors have the financial resources to offer competitive products at aggressive pricing levels that could prevent us from competing effectively. Further, many of our competitors have built long-standing relationships with some of our prospective and existing customers and have the ability to provide financing to customers and could, therefore, have an inherent advantage in selling products to those customers. Sales and Marketing We market and sell our products and related support services primarily through our direct sales force, supported by marketing and product management personnel. We also use distribution or support partners to enter new markets or when requested by a potential customer. Our sales team has significant experience with the buying process and sales cycles typical of high-value telecommunications products. The sales process for our products entails discussions with prospective customers, analyzing their networks and identifying how they can utilize our systems capabilities within their networks. This process requires developing strong customer relationships and leveraging our sales force and customer support capabilities. Over the course of the sales cycle, potential customers often test our products before buying. Prior to commercial deployment, the customer will generally perform a field trial of our products. Upon successful completion, the customer generally accepts the products installed in its network and may continue with commercial deployment of additional products. We anticipate that our sales cycle, from initial contact with a prospective customer through the signing of a purchase agreement may, in some cases, take several quarters. Direct Sales Force. Our sales team sells directly to service providers worldwide and is organized geographically around the following markets: (i) United States and Canada (“North America”); (ii) Latin America and South America (“LATAM”); (iii) Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”); and (iv) Asia Pacific and Japan (“APAC”). Within each geographic area, we maintain specific teams or personnel that focus on a particular region, country, customer or market vertical. Indirect Sales Force. We employ business consultants and resale and logistics partners to assist in our sales efforts, primarily in new regions for us whereby these partners have deep knowledge of typical business practices and strong relationships with key local operators. We expect to work with business partners to assist our customers in the sale, deployment and maintenance of our systems and have entered into distribution and resale agreements to facilitate the sale and support of our products. Marketing and Product Management. Our product management team is responsible for defining the product features and go-to-market plan required to maximize our success in the marketplace. Product management supports our sales efforts with product and application expertise. Our corporate marketing team works to create demand for our products by communicating our value proposition and differentiation through direct customer interaction, public relations, attendance at tradeshows and other events, as well as internet programs and other marketing channels. Research and Development Continued investment in research and development is critical to our business. To this end, we have a team of engineers with expertise in various fields, including photonic integrated circuits, components, systems, sub-systems and software. Our research and development efforts are currently focused in San Jose, California; Allentown, Pennsylvania; Annapolis, Maryland; Bangalore, India; Kanata, Canada; Stockholm, Sweden; Munich, Germany; Lisbon, Portugal; Shanghai, PRC; Espoo, Finland; and Naperville, Illinois. We utilize a mix of internal resources and supplement our staffing with development personnel provided by third parties on a contract basis. We have invested significant time and financial resources into the enhancement of existing products and the development of new products. We will continue to expand our product offerings and the capabilities of existing products in the future and plan to dedicate significant resources to these continued research and development efforts. We are continually increasing the scalability and software features of our current platforms. As part of the integration efforts related to the Acquisition, we are integrating the legacy Infinera and Coriant products into a seamless end-to-end portfolio; and we are investing in leveraging the vertical integration capabilities of Infinera across a broader portion of our platforms. We are also working to develop new generations of optical engines at a faster cadence than we have historically in order to bring new products to market more rapidly and meet customer demand. We believe these efforts will enhance our competitiveness in the markets we currently serve and also allow us to address adjacent markets to fuel our future growth. 9 Human Capital Integrity, trust, mutual commitment, respect for diversity and execution excellence are some of Infinera’s core values – values brought to life by our talented, diverse, and dedicated global workforce. Employee health and safety are cornerstones of our human capital management, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. We continuously strive to build and maintain a culture of human connection, individual responsibility, and mutual integrity. As of December 26, 2020, we had 3,050 employees, with 1,902 of those employees located outside of the United States. None of our U.S. employees are subject to a collective bargaining agreement. Employees in certain foreign jurisdictions are represented by local workers’ councils and/or collective bargaining agreements, as required by local laws or customs. We have not experienced any work stoppages, and we consider our employee relationships to be good. Diversity and Inclusion At Infinera, we strive to be a diverse company with an inclusive culture, as reflected in the way we treat each other and respect our differences, and how we do business with our customers and partners around the world. We believe that our rich culture of inclusion and belonging enables us to leverage the strengths of our people in an effort to exceed customer expectations and growth objectives. Current key diversity and inclusion (“D&I”) initiatives include our global D&I engagement committee, employee resource groups and talent acquisition. In 2020, as part of our commitment to fully embrace D&I in all aspects of our business, we launched Infinera ALL-In, an employee-led, company-wide effort to promote, facilitate and support sustainable efforts that lead to meaningful and measurable results in our approach to diversity, inclusion, and belonging at the Company. Infinera ALL-In includes members of the executive leadership team (led by our CEO, CFO and CHRO) as well as employees from various global sites and functions who are passionate about D&I. It coordinates and supports new and existing global and local D&I efforts. Our Infinera ALL-In effort aims to incorporate D&I in every aspect of our business and employee experience; to create an environment where everyone in our global community feels valued, respected, and supported so that every person has the opportunity to achieve full potential; to embrace the unique perspectives and experiences of our employees and partners in an effort to exceed our globally diverse customer expectations; and to prepare and implement a corporate framework for hiring, developing, and engaging the diverse talent required to maximize our opportunity. To take a holistic approach to D&I, Infinera ALL-In conducted a global employee survey to see if, where, and how different groups of employees experience our company culture. Employee input is critical as we continue to build a unified global culture that values local needs and perspectives. This anonymous survey highlighted key areas of focus for Infinera. In response to the survey, we are adding African Descent/Black at Infinera and LGBTQ+ employee resource groups and incorporating our existing Women at Infinera ("WIN") employee resource group. WIN was founded in 2018 with the purpose of positively reinforcing women in technology and facilitating engagement and collaboration across the Company. The group works to provide our female employees with access to conferences, social events, and other prominent engagements in the technology industry, as well as to support greater opportunities for career growth, internships, and leadership. In 2019, we created a formal WIN leadership board, which was expanded to a global cross-functional team in 2020. We are training our recruiters in diversity sourcing strategies. As of December 26, 2020, women represented over 18% of our global employees and minorities represented approximately 36% of our U.S. workforce. Infinera also participates in national and regional initiatives to recruit diverse talent. For example, in Canada we have an agreement with Canada’s Employment and Social Development Agency to hire and develop women and underrepresented minorities. In 2020, a majority of our Canadian new hires were women and minorities. Similarly, in Europe we are party to European Commission-funded consortium agreements through which we recruit, hire and develop women and underrepresented minority early-stage researchers. Compensation, Benefits and Well-being Our goal is to provide our talented employees with a total compensation package that is market- competitive and appropriate for the individual. Our total compensation for eligible employees includes base salary, bonuses and equity awards. We intend to maintain ongoing competitiveness for attracting and retaining 10 talent. We continuously improve our human resources information systems for workforce data collection, monitoring and reporting, and expect that this will allow us to improve our understanding of compensation equity around the globe to ensure fair pay. In addition, with our benefits programs, we seek to provide market- competitive benefits as part of our total reward structure for all employees around the globe and their dependents. As the world responds to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are working to do our part by ensuring the safety of our employees, striving to protect the health and well-being of the communities in which we operate, and providing technology, tips and resources to our customers to help them do their best work while remote. Infinera is a critical infrastructure business with manufacturing facilities in the U.S. and research and development sites in several countries. As such, we have invested in creating physically safe work environments for our on-site workforce. We have a global leadership team comprised of local site leaders that meets regularly to support compliance with all local and international guidelines and establish best practices at every site. In the U.S., we have initiated rapid testing for essential on-site employees at no cost to employees and currently require all non-essential employees to work remotely. We regularly quarantine employees and provide paid leave to employees beyond what is required by local laws. We are working to help protect our local communities. For example, through our engagement with the Silicon Valley Leadership Group, we provided information and shared best practices to promote community safety. Also, proceeds from our on-site testing go to underserved community members to increase access to testing. Leveraging the knowledge of our local site leaders, we continue to evaluate opportunities for similar community initiatives outside of the U.S. In light of the challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic to physical, mental, and emotional health, we have renewed our focus on employee well-being. For example, in the U.S., the Employee Assistance Program benefit includes mental health counseling for help with personal issues, childcare and eldercare referrals, financial coaching, legal consultation, and wellness tools. Employees are provided medical, dental, vision, long-term and short-term disability and life insurance, and employees covered under our health insurance have access to various wellness programs. Employees are provided paid parental leaves as new parents (birth or adoption). Finally, eligible employees are also eligible for unlimited flexible time off. We are committed to providing employees with a healthful and safe work environment by striving to prevent accidents and improve workplace conditions, and continuously working to improve our processes and performance. Our health and safety programs emphasize personal accountability, professional conduct, and regulatory compliance, while our culture fosters a sense of proactivity, caution, and communication. Growth and Development We believe that transparency and integrity help foster a culture of professional growth. With that in mind, we encourage our employees to share candid feedback about working for our company through our Executive Suggestion site and on public forums such as Glassdoor.com. Our executives utilize this feedback as we work to consistently improve our employee experience. In addition, we have increased communication between our employees and management teams, which has facilitated the integration of our Coriant workforce. We have also worked extensively with our global site leaders to provide local representation for our workforce, to try to equip our employees with all they need to succeed, and to use local solutions where appropriate. Finally, experiential learning is powerful in career development, which is why we provide job-based learning opportunities including cross-functional transfers, expanded roles, and relocations to other geographies. Manufacturing We have invested significant time and capital to develop and improve the manufacturing processes we use to produce and package our products. This includes significant investments in personnel, equipment and the facilities needed to manufacture and package our products in California and Pennsylvania. We also have invested in automating our manufacturing process and in training and maintaining the quality of our manufacturing workforce. As a leader in the development of photonic integration, our manufacturing processes have been developed over several years and are protected through a combination of patents, trade secrets and contractual protections. We believe that the investments we have made towards the manufacturing and packaging of our products provide us with a significant competitive advantage. We also believe that our current manufacturing facilities, including our fabrication facility for our PICs in California and our module manufacturing facility in Pennsylvania, can accommodate an increase in production capacity as our business continues to grow. 11 We also use contract manufacturers to assemble portions of our products. Each contract manufacturer procures components necessary to assemble products according to our specifications and bills of material. For elements of our business where we outsource, we perform rigorous in-house quality control testing to ensure the reliability of our products. Our supply chain risk mitigation strategies are continuous and institutionalized in our supply chain design for external manufacturing and for procurement of components. We currently use four contract manufacturers in several different countries, including China, Malaysia, Mexico, Hungary and Thailand, and we maintain the capability to redirect select manufacturing activities to U.S. qualified factories of three electronic manufacturing services partners. We expect all suppliers to comply with our Supplier Code of Conduct, which addresses the rights of workers to safe and healthy working conditions, environmental responsibility, and compliance with applicable laws. Backlog Our backlog represents purchase orders received from customers for future product shipments and services to be provided in future periods. More than half of our total order backlog is related to services, comprised primarily of annual maintenance contracts. Our backlog is subject to future events that could cause the amount or timing of the related revenue to change, and, in certain cases, may be canceled without penalty. Orders in backlog may be fulfilled several quarters following order receipt and may relate to multi-year support service obligations. As a result, we believe that backlog should not be viewed as an accurate indicator of future operating results for any particular period. A backlogged order may not result in revenue in a particular period, and the actual revenue may not be equal to our backlog amounts. Our presentation of backlog may not be comparable with that of other companies in our industry. Intellectual Property Our innovative optical engine technology, including our PIC, DSP, module and related technologies, is foundational to our products and we believe it is highly valued by our customers and provides us with a competitive advantage. We believe our success depends upon our ability to protect our core technology and intellectual property. To accomplish this, we rely on a combination of intellectual property rights, including patents, trade secrets, copyrights and trademarks, as well as customary contractual protections. However, there can be no assurances that these protections will be sufficient to provide us with a competitive advantage or that others have not or will not reverse engineer our designs or discover, develop or disclose the same or similar designs and manufacturing processes. As of December 26, 2020, we held 1,126 U.S. patents and 771 international patents expiring between 2021 and 2038, and held 196 U.S. and 135 foreign pending patent applications. We do not know whether any of our pending patent applications will result in the issuance of patents or whether the examination process will require us to narrow our claims. We may not receive any competitive advantages from the rights granted under our patents and other intellectual property. Any patents granted to us may be contested, circumvented or invalidated over the course of our business, and we may not be able to prevent third parties from infringing these patents. Therefore, the impact of these patents cannot be predicted with certainty. We believe that the frequency of assertions of patent infringement is increasing as patent holders, including entities that are not in our industry and who purchase patents as an investment or to monetize such rights by obtaining royalties, use such actions as a competitive tactic as well as a source of additional revenue. For example, we are currently involved in litigation for alleged patent infringement. See Item 3. “Legal Proceedings” for additional information regarding these lawsuits. Any claim of infringement from a third party, even those without merit, could cause us to incur substantial costs defending against such claims, and could distract our management from running our business. Furthermore, a party making such a claim, if successful, could secure a judgment that requires us to pay substantial damages or could include an injunction or other court order that could prevent us from offering our products. In addition, we might be required to seek a license for the use of such intellectual property, which may not be available on commercially reasonable terms or at all. Alternatively, we may be required to develop non-infringing technology, which would require significant effort and expense and may ultimately not be successful. In addition to trade secret and patent protections, we generally control access to and the use of our proprietary software and other confidential information. This protection is accomplished through a combination of 12 internal and external controls, including contractual protections with employees, contractors, customers and partners, and through a combination of U.S. and international copyright laws. We license some of our software pursuant to agreements that impose restrictions on our customers’ ability to use such software, such as prohibiting reverse engineering and limiting the use of copies. We also seek to avoid disclosure of our intellectual property by relying on non-disclosure and assignment of intellectual property agreements with our employees and consultants that acknowledge our exclusive ownership of all intellectual property developed by the individual during the course of his or her work with us. The agreements also require that each person maintain the confidentiality of all proprietary information disclosed to them. Other parties may not comply with the terms of their agreements with us, and we may not be able to enforce our rights adequately against these parties. We also rely on contractual rights to establish and protect our proprietary rights in our products. We incorporate free and open source licensed software into our products. Although we monitor our use of such open source software closely, the terms of many open source licenses have not been interpreted by U.S. courts, and there is a risk that such licenses could be construed in a manner that could impose unanticipated conditions or restrictions on our ability to commercialize our products. In addition, non-compliance with open source software license terms and conditions could subject us to potential liability, including intellectual property infringement and/or contractual claims. In such event, we could be required to seek licenses from third parties in order to continue offering our products, to re-engineer our products or to discontinue the sale of our products in the event re-engineering cannot be accomplished in a timely manner, any of which could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition. Governmental Regulations Environmental Laws and Regulations. We are committed to maintaining compliance with all environmental laws and regulations applicable to our operations, products and services. Our business and operations are subject to various federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations that have been adopted with respect to the environment, including the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive ("WEEE"), Directive on the Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment ("RoHS"), and Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals ("REACH") regulations adopted by the European Union. Environmental regulation is increasing and we expect that our operations will be subject to additional environmental compliance requirements, which may expose us to additional costs. We are also subject to disclosure requirements related to the presence of “conflict minerals” in our products. To date, our compliance costs relating to environmental regulations have not resulted in a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition. Other Laws and Regulations. We are subject to U.S. and foreign laws and regulations across the jurisdictions in which we operate. In addition to the environmental laws and regulations discussed above, we are subject to laws and regulations addressing the telecommunications industry, cybersecurity, privacy and data protection, export and import control, trade sanctions, and anti-bribery and anti-corruption. To date, our compliance costs relating to these laws and regulations have not resulted in a material adverse effect on our business, operating results or financial condition. For further discussion of risks associated with these governmental laws and regulations, see Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors – Legal and Regulatory Risk Factors.” Information about our Executive Officers Our executive officers and their ages and positions as of December 26, 2020, are set forth below: Name David W.

RISK FACTORS Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. A description of the risks and uncertainties associated with our business is set forth below. The risks set forth below are not the only risks we face. These, many other factors described in this report and additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial could adversely affect our operations, performance and financial condition. Our actual results could differ materially from our forward-looking statements. Risk Factors Summary The following is a summary of the principal risks that could adversely affect our business, operations and financial results. Business and Operational Risk Factors • Our quarterly results may vary significantly from period to period. • The COVID-19 pandemic could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. Any delays in the development, introduction or acceptance of our new products or in releasing enhancements to our existing products may harm our business. • • Our ability to increase our revenue will depend upon continued demand growth for additional network capacity and on customer capital spending details. • • We are dependent on sole source and limited source suppliers for several key components. • We are dependent on a small number of key customers for a significant portion of our revenue. Product performance problems or deployment delays could harm our business and reputation. • Increased consolidation among our customers and suppliers in the communications networking industry • has had, and could continue to have, an adverse effect on our business and results of operations. The markets in which we compete are highly competitive and we may not be able to compete effectively. Aggressive business tactics by our competitors may harm our business. If we lose key personnel or fail to attract qualified personnel, our business may be harmed. Actions that we are taking to restructure our business may not be as effective as anticipated. • • • • We rely on various third-party service partners to help complement our global operations. • We must respond to rapid technological change for our products to be successful. • • • The manufacturing process for our optical engine and assembly of our products is very complex. If our contract manufacturers do not perform as we expect, our business may be harmed. If we fail to accurately forecast our manufacturing requirements or customer demand, we could incur additional costs. • Our large customers have substantial negotiating leverage. • Our sales cycle can be long and unpredictable, which could result in unexpected revenue shortfalls. Any strategic transactions that we undertake could disrupt our business and harm our financial • condition and operations. Financial and Macroeconomic Risk Factors • We may be unable to generate the cash flow necessary to make anticipated capital expenditures, service our debt, or grow our business. • Unfavorable macroeconomic and market conditions may adversely affect our industry, business and financial results. If we need additional capital in the future, it may not be available to us on favorable terms, or at all. • • Our international sales and operations subject us to additional risks. • We may be adversely affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates. • Our effective tax rate may increase or fluctuate, which could increase our income tax expense and reduce our net income. • Our debt obligations may adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital and will be a burden on our future cash resources. • We may issue additional shares of our common stock in connection with conversions of the Notes. • The fundamental change provisions of the 2024 Notes and the 2027 Notes may delay or prevent an otherwise beneficial takeover attempt of us. The Capped Calls may affect the value of the 2024 Notes and our common stock. • • We are subject to counterparty risk with respect to the Capped Calls. 15 Legal and Regulatory Risk Factors • If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our competitive position could be harmed, or we could incur significant expense to enforce our rights. • Claims by others that we infringe their intellectual property could harm our business. • If we fail to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting in the future, the accuracy and timing of our financial reporting may be adversely affected. Security incidents, such as data breaches and cyber-attacks, could compromise our intellectual property and proprietary or confidential information and cause significant damage to our business and reputation. • • We are subject to governmental regulations that could adversely affect our business. • We are subject to various governmental export control, trade sanctions and import laws and regulations • that could impair our ability to compete in international markets or subject us to liability. A portion of our revenue is generated by sales to government entities, which are subject to a number of uncertainties, challenges, and risks. • Our business could be adversely affected if we cannot obtain and maintain required security clearances, or we do not comply with obligations regarding the safeguarding of classified information. Failure to comply with anti-bribery and similar laws could subject us to adverse consequences. • General Risk Factors • • • • The trading price of our common stock has been volatile and is likely to be volatile in the future. Future sales of our common stock could cause our stock price to fall. Anti-takeover provisions in our charter documents and Delaware law could discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of our company and may affect the trading price of our common stock. Exclusive forum provisions in our bylaws will restrict our stockholders’ ability to choose the judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers, or employees. • Natural disasters, terrorist attacks or other catastrophic events could harm our operations. For a more complete discussion of the material risks facing our business, see below. Business and Operational Risk Factors Our quarterly results may vary significantly from period to period, which could make our future results difficult to predict and could cause our operating results to fall below investor, analyst or our expectations. Our quarterly results and, in particular, our revenue, gross margins, operating expenses, operating margins and net income (loss), have historically varied significantly from period to period and may continue to do so in the future. As a result, comparing our operating results on a period-to-period basis may not be meaningful. Our budgeted expense levels are based, in large part, on our expectations of future revenue and the development efforts associated with that future revenue. Consequently, if our revenue does not meet projected levels in the short-term, our inventory levels, cost of goods sold and operating expenses would be high relative to revenue, resulting in potential operating losses. If our revenue or operating results do not meet the expectations of investors or securities analysts or fall below any guidance we provide to the market, the price of our common stock may decline substantially. Factors that may contribute to fluctuations in our quarterly results, many of which are outside our control and may be difficult to predict, include: • • • fluctuations in demand, sales cycles and prices for products and services, including discounts given in response to competitive pricing pressures or to secure long-term customer relationships, as well as the timing of purchases by our key customers; changes in customers’ budgets for optical transport network purchases and changes or variability in their purchasing cycles; fluctuations in our customer, product or geographic mix, including the impact of new customer deployments, which typically carry lower gross margins, customer consolidation, which may affect our ability to grow revenue, and products powered by our next-generation technologies, which initially tend to be lower margin due to higher per unit production costs and greater variability in production yields; 16 • • • • • • • • • • • • • • the timing, market acceptance and rate of adoption of our new product releases and our competitors' new product releases; our ability to manage manufacturing costs, maintain or improve quality, and increase volumes and yields on products manufactured in our internal manufacturing facilities, each of which has been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic; our ability to successfully restructure or transform our operations within our anticipated time frame and realize our anticipated savings; the price, quality and timing of delivery of key components from suppliers, including any shipping cost increases or delays in the supply of components that may result from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as impacts due to consolidations amongst our suppliers; order cancellations, reductions or delays in delivery schedules by our customers; any delay in collecting or failure to collect accounts receivable; our ability to control costs, including our operating expenses and the costs and availability of components we purchase for our products; any significant changes in the competitive dynamics of the markets we serve, including any new entrants, new technologies, or customer or competitor consolidation, as well as aggressive pricing tactics by our competitors; our ability to manage inventory while timely meeting customer demand and avoiding charges for excess or obsolete inventory; readiness of customer sites for installation of our products as well as the availability of third-party service partners to provide contract engineering and installation services for us, each of which has been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic; the timing of revenue recognition and revenue deferrals; any future changes in U.S. GAAP or new interpretations of existing accounting rules; the impact of a significant natural disaster, as well as interruptions or shortages in the supply of utilities such as water and electricity, in a key location such as our Northern California facilities, which are located near major earthquake fault lines, areas of high fire risk and in a designated flood zone; and general economic and political conditions in domestic and international markets, including those related to the recent change in presidential administration in the United States, and other factors beyond our control, including the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and related response measures. The COVID-19 pandemic could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused disruptions to our business and operations to date and could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations in the future. The COVID-19 global pandemic has adversely affected the economies of many countries and has resulted in significant governmental measures to control the spread of COVID-19, including, among others, restrictions on travel, business operations and the movement of people in many regions of the world in which we operate, and the imposition of shelter-in- place or similarly restrictive work-from-home orders impacting many of our offices and employees, including those located in the United States. As a result of these governmental measures and pursuant to recommended safety guidelines, we have temporarily closed or substantially limited the presence of personnel in our offices in several impacted locations, implemented travel restrictions and withdrawn from various industry events. Our work-from-home policy has contributed to delays in certain operational processes, including our routine quarterly financial statement close 17 process in the first quarter of 2020, and may have an impact on our operational processes in the future. We have experienced some disruption and delays in our global supply chain and manufacturing operations, logistics operations and customer support operations, including shipping delays, higher transport costs, and certain limitations on our ability to access customer fulfillment and service sites. We are dependent on sole source and limited source suppliers for several key components, and we have experienced capacity issues, longer lead times, increased costs and shortages with certain component suppliers, including for semiconductors, impacting our operational processes and results of operations. We have also seen disruptions in customer demand, including due to delays in the customer certification process resulting from customer facility closures or access restrictions. During fiscal 2020, some of these disruptions negatively impacted our revenue and our results of operations. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and results of operations in fiscal 2021 remains uncertain and is dependent in part on future infection rates, the emergence of new strains of the virus, the effectiveness and availability of vaccinations, and broader global macroeconomic developments. We may face further disruptions or restrictions on our ability to source, manufacture or distribute our products due to existing or additional governmental restrictions in multiple countries on business operations and movement of people and products. If we experience pronounced disruptions in our operations or in our ability to service our customers, including due to COVID-19 infections or quarantines among our employees and service providers, or if we face curtailed customer demand, these factors may materially adversely impact our business and results of operations. We could also face negative impacts on our liquidity and capital resources in fiscal 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and its impacts on our customers, third-party service providers and capital markets. Any delays in the development, introduction or acceptance of our new products or in releasing enhancements to our existing products may harm our business. Our products are based on complex technologies, including, in many cases, the development of next- generation PICs, DSPs and specialized application-specific integrated circuits (“ASICs”), each of which are key components of our optical engines. In addition, we may also depend on technologies from outside suppliers, all of which may cause us to experience unanticipated delays in developing, improving, manufacturing or deploying our products. The development process for our optical engines is lengthy, and any modifications entail significant development cost and risks. At any given time, various new product introductions and enhancements to our existing products are in the development phase and are not yet ready for commercial manufacturing or deployment. We rely on third parties, some of which are relatively early stage companies, to develop, manufacture and deliver components for our next-generation products, which can often require custom development. The development process from laboratory prototype to customer trials, and subsequently to general availability, involves a significant number of simultaneous efforts. These efforts often must be completed in a timely and coordinated manner so that they may be incorporated into the product development cycle for our systems, and include: • • • • • • completion of product development, including the development and completion of our next- generation optical engines, and the completion of associated module development; the qualification and multiple sourcing of critical components; validation of manufacturing methods and processes; extensive quality assurance and reliability testing and staffing of testing infrastructure; validation of software; and establishment of systems integration and systems test validation requirements. Each of these steps, in turn, presents risks of failure, rework or delay, any one of which could decrease the speed and scope of product introduction and marketplace acceptance of our products. New generations of our optical engines as well as intensive software testing are important to the timely introduction of new products and enhancements to our existing products, which are subject to these development risks. In addition, unexpected intellectual property disputes, failure of critical design elements, limited or constrained engineering resources, and a host of other development execution risks may delay, or even prevent, the introduction of new products or enhancements to our existing products. For example, sustained restrictions on the ability of our 18 engineers to work in our offices and laboratories as a result of COVID-19-related restrictions imposed by governments, or us, has made and could continue to make it more difficult for our engineers to collaborate as effectively as desired in the development of new products, which could affect development schedules. If we do not develop and successfully introduce or enhance products in a timely manner, including the successful development of our next generation optical engine, our competitive position will suffer. As we transition customers to new products, we face significant risk that our new products may not be accepted by our current or new customers. To the extent that we fail to introduce new and innovative products that are adopted by customers, we could fail to obtain an adequate return on these investments and could lose market share to our competitors, which could be difficult or impossible to regain. Similarly, we may face decreased revenue, gross margins and profitability due to a rapid decline in sales of current products as customers hold spending to focus purchases on new product platforms. We could incur significant costs in completing the transition, including costs of inventory write-downs of the current product as customers transition to new product platforms. In addition, products or technologies developed by others may render our products noncompetitive or obsolete and result in significant reduction in orders from our customers and the loss of existing and prospective customers. Our ability to increase our revenue will depend upon continued growth of demand by consumers and businesses for additional network capacity and on the level and timing of capital spending by our customers. Our future success depends on factors that increase the amount of data transmitted over communications networks and the growth of optical transport networks to meet the increased demand for optical capacity. These factors include the growth of mobile, video and cloud-based services, increased broadband connectivity and the continuing adoption of high-capacity, revenue-generating services. If demand for such bandwidth does not continue, or slows down, the market for optical transport networking equipment may not continue to grow and our product sales would be negatively impacted. In addition, demand for our products depends on the level and timing of capital spending in optical networks by service providers as they construct, expand and upgrade the capacity of their optical networks. Capital spending is cyclical in our industry and spending by customers can change on short notice. Any future decisions by our customers to reduce capital spending, whether caused by lower customer demand, weakening economic conditions as has been precipitated by the COVID-19 pandemic, changes in government regulations relating to telecommunications and data networks, customer or other reasons, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We are dependent on sole source and limited source suppliers for several key components, and if we fail to obtain these components on a timely basis, we will not meet our customers’ product delivery requirements. We currently purchase several key components for our products from sole or limited sources. In particular, we rely on our own production of certain components of our products, such as PICs, and on third parties, including sole source and limited source suppliers, for certain of the components of our products, including ASICs, field-programmable gate arrays, processors, and other semiconductor and optical components. We have increased our reliance on third parties to develop and manufacture components for certain products, some of which require custom development. We purchase most of these components on a purchase order basis and generally only have long-term contracts with these sole source or limited source suppliers. If any of our sole source or limited source suppliers suffer from capacity constraints, lower than expected yields, deployment delays, work stoppages or any other reduction or disruption in output, they may be unable to meet our delivery schedule, which could result in lost revenue, additional product costs and deployment delays that could harm our business and customer relationships. In addition, these same suppliers may decide to no longer manufacture or support specific components necessary for some of our legacy products, which could lead to our inability to fulfill demand without increased engineering and material costs necessary to replace such components. Further, our suppliers could enter into exclusive arrangements with our competitors, refuse to sell their products or components to us at commercially reasonable prices or at all, go out of business or discontinue their relationships with us. We may be unable to develop alternative sources for these components within a suitable time frame to be able to operate our business, or at all. 19 The loss of a source of supply, or lack of sufficient availability of key components, could require us to redesign products that use such components, which could result in lost revenue, additional product costs and deployment delays that could harm our business and customer relationships. For example, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused a disruption of the global supply chain for certain components necessary for our products and the magnitude of or duration of any such impact is unknown. Due to cross dependencies, any supply chain disruptions could negatively impact the demand for our products in the short term. In addition, if our contract manufacturers do not receive critical components in a timely manner to build our products, then we would not be able to ship certain products in a timely manner and would, therefore, be unable to meet our prospective customers’ product delivery requirements. In the past, we have experienced delivery delays because of lack of availability of components or reliability issues with components that we were purchasing. In addition, some of our suppliers have gone out of business, merged with another supplier, or limited their supply of components to us, which may cause us to experience longer than normal lead times, supply delays and increased prices. We may in the future experience a shortage of certain components as a result of our own manufacturing issues, manufacturing issues at our suppliers or contract manufacturers, capacity problems experienced by our suppliers or contract manufacturers, strong demand in the industry for such components, or other disruptions in our supply chain. In addition, disruptions to global macroeconomic conditions may create pressure on us and our suppliers to accurately project overall component demand and manufacturing capacity. These supplier disruptions may continue to occur in the future, which could limit our ability to produce our products and cause us to fail to meet a customer’s delivery requirements. Any failure to meet our customers’ product delivery requirements could harm our reputation and our customer relationships, either of which would harm our business and operating results. We are dependent on a small number of key customers for a significant portion of our revenue from period to period and the loss of, or a significant reduction in, orders from one or more of our key customers would reduce our revenue and harm our operating results. While our revenue and customer base have become more diversified over the past few years, a relatively small number of customers accounts for a large percentage of our revenue from period to period. For example, for fiscal 2020, our top ten customers accounted for approximately 43% of our total revenue. For fiscal 2019, our top ten customers accounted for approximately 46% of our total revenue. For fiscal 2018, our top ten customers accounted for approximately 54% of our total revenue. Our business will likely be harmed if any of our key customers, for whatever reason, substantially reduce, delay or stop their orders from us. In addition, our business will be harmed if we fail to maintain our competitive advantage with our key customers or do not add new larger customers over time. We continue to expect a relatively small number of customers to continue to account for a large percentage of revenue from period to period. However, customer consolidation could reduce the number of key customers that generate a significant percentage of our revenue and may increase the risks relating to dependence on a small number of customers. Our ability to continue to generate revenue from our key customers will depend on our ability to maintain strong relationships with these customers and introduce competitive new products at competitive prices. In most cases, our sales are made to these customers pursuant to standard purchase agreements, which may be canceled or reduced readily, rather than long-term purchase commitments that would require these customers to purchase any minimum or guaranteed volumes orders. In the event of a cancellation or reduction of an order, we may not have enough time to reduce operating expenses to minimize the effect of the lost revenue on our business. Our operating results will continue to depend on our ability to sell our products to our key customers. In addition, we must regularly compete for and win business with existing and new customers across all of our customer segments. In addition, the negative effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on global economic conditions may affect the network spending, procurement strategies, or business practices of our key customers. If any of our key customers experience a loss in revenue due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on their consumer or enterprise customers, they may reduce or delay capital spending generally or with respect to our products, which could materially adversely affect our business and results of operations. Product performance problems, including undetected errors in our hardware or software, or deployment delays could harm our business and reputation. The development and production of products with high technology content is complicated and often involves problems with hardware, software, components and manufacturing methods. Complex hardware and software systems, such as our products, can often contain undetected errors or bugs when first introduced or as 20 new versions are released. In addition, errors associated with components we purchase from third parties, including customized components, may be difficult to resolve. We have experienced issues in the past in connection with our products, including failures due to the receipt of faulty components from our suppliers and performance issues related to software updates. From time to time we have had to replace certain components or provide software remedies or other remediation in response to errors or bugs, and we may have to do so again in the future. In addition, performance issues can be heightened during periods where we are developing and introducing multiple new products to the market, as any performance issues we encounter in one technology or product could impact the performance or timing of delivery of other products. Our products may also suffer degradation of performance and reliability over time. If reliability, quality, security or network monitoring problems develop, a number of negative effects on our business could result, including: • • • • • • • • • • reduced orders from existing customers; declining interest from potential customers; delays in our ability to recognize revenue or in collecting accounts receivables; costs associated with fixing hardware or software defects or replacing products; high service and warranty expenses; delays in shipments; high inventory excess and obsolescence expense; high levels of product returns; diversion of our engineering personnel from our product development efforts; and payment of liquidated damages, performance guarantees or similar penalties. Because we outsource the manufacturing of certain components of our products, we may also be subject to product performance problems as a result of the acts or omissions of third parties, and we may not have adequate compensating remedies against such third parties. From time to time, we encounter interruptions or delays in the activation of our products at a customer’s site. These interruptions or delays may result from product performance problems or from issues with installation and activation, some of which are outside our control. If we experience significant interruptions or delays that we cannot promptly resolve, the associated revenue for these installations may be delayed or confidence in our products could be undermined, which could cause us to lose customers, fail to add new customers, and consequently harm our financial results. Increased consolidation among our customers and suppliers in the communications networking industry has had, and could continue to have, an adverse effect on our business and results of operations. We have seen increased consolidation in the communications networking industry over the past few years, which has adversely affected our business and results of operations. For example, several of our customers have consolidated in the past. During 2016, Charter Communications acquired Time Warner Cable, Inc. and Altice acquired Cablevision. During 2017, Verizon acquired XO Communications and CenturyLink acquired Level 3 Communications. Customer consolidation has led to changes in buying patterns, slowdowns in spending, redeployment of existing equipment and re-architecture of parts of existing networks or future networks, as the combined companies evaluate the needs of the combined business. Moreover, the significant purchasing power of these large companies can increase pricing and competitive pressures for us, including the potential for decreases in our average selling prices. If one of our customers is acquired by another company that does not rely on us to provide it with products or relies on another provider of similar products, we may lose that customer’s business. Such consolidation may further reduce the number of customers that generate a significant percentage of our revenue and may exacerbate the risks relating to dependence on a small number of 21 customers. Any of the foregoing results will adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, our suppliers in the communications networking industry have recently continued to consolidate. For example, Lumentum acquired Oclaro in 2018 and II-VI acquired Finisar in 2019. In January 2021, Lumentum announced its intention to acquire Coherent, and MKS Instruments and II-VI each made unsolicited acquisition proposals for Coherent in February 2021. Supplier consolidation may lead to increased prices of components for our products, deployment delays and/or a disruption in output. In addition, such consolidation may exacerbate the risks relating to our dependence on a small number of suppliers for certain components and materials that are required to manufacture our products. The markets in which we compete are highly competitive and we may not be able to compete effectively. Competition in the packet-optical equipment market is intense. Our main competitors include WDM system suppliers, such as ADVA Optical Networking, Ciena Corporation, Cisco Systems, ECI (now part of Ribbon Communications Inc.), Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd., Nokia and ZTE. In addition, there are several other companies that offer one or more products that partially compete with our offerings. Competition in the markets we serve is based on any one or a combination of the following factors: • • • • • • • • • • • • • price and other commercial terms; functionality and optical performance; existing business and customer relationships; the ability of products and services to meet customers’ immediate and future network requirements; power consumption; heat dissipation; form factor or density; installation and operational simplicity; quality and reliability; service and support; security and encryption requirements; scalability and investment protection; and product lead times. In addition to our current competitors, other companies have, or may in the future develop, products that are or could be competitive with our products. We also could encounter competitor consolidation in the markets in which we compete, which could lead to a changing competitive landscape, capabilities and market share, and could impact our results of operations. For example, in the third quarter of 2019, Cisco Systems announced its intention to acquire optical communications supplier Acacia Communications, and in January 2021, the parties agreed to revised acquisition terms, with the acquisition expected to be completed by the end of the first quarter of 2021. Some of our competitors have substantially greater name recognition, technical, financial and marketing resources. Many of our competitors have more resources and more experience in developing or acquiring new products and technologies, and in creating market awareness for those products and technologies. In addition, many of our competitors have the financial resources to offer competitive products at aggressive pricing levels and/or have the ability to provide financing to customers, which could prevent us from competing effectively. Further, many of our competitors have built long-standing relationships with some of our prospective and existing customers and could, therefore, have an inherent advantage in selling products to those customers. 22 We also compete with low-cost producers that may increase pricing pressure on us and with a number of smaller companies that provide competition for a specific product, customer segment or geographic market. In addition, we may also face increased competition from system and component companies that develop products based on off-the-shelf hardware that offers the latest commercially available technologies. Due to the narrower focus of their efforts, these competitors may achieve commercial availability of their products more quickly than we can and may provide attractive alternatives to our customers. Aggressive business tactics by our competitors may harm our business. The markets in which we compete are extremely competitive and this often results in aggressive business tactics by our competitors, including: • • • • aggressively pricing their optical transport products and other portfolio products, including offering significant one-time discounts and guaranteed future price decreases; offering optical products at a substantial discount or for free when bundled together with broader technology purchases, such as router or wireless equipment purchases; providing financing, marketing and advertising assistance to customers; and influencing customer requirements to emphasize different product capabilities, which better suit their products. The level of competition and pricing pressure tend to increase when competing for larger high-profile opportunities or during periods of economic weakness when there are fewer network build-out projects. If we fail to compete successfully against our current and future competitors, or if our current or future competitors continue or expand their aggressive business tactics, including those described above, demand for our products could decline, we could experience delays or cancellations of customer orders, and/or we could be required to reduce our prices to compete in the market. If we lose key personnel or fail to attract and retain additional qualified personnel when needed, our business may be harmed. Our success depends to a significant degree upon the continued contributions of our key management, engineering, sales and marketing, and finance personnel, many of whom would be difficult to replace. For example, senior members of our engineering team have unique technical experience that would be difficult to replace. Because our products are complex, we must hire and retain highly trained customer service and support personnel to ensure that the deployment of our products does not result in network disruption for our customers. We believe our future success will depend in large part upon our ability to identify, attract and retain highly skilled personnel, and competition for these individuals is intense in our industry, especially in the San Francisco Bay Area where we are headquartered and, increasingly, in certain cities and regions where we have operations outside the United States as well. In addition, we may not succeed in identifying, attracting and retaining appropriate personnel. The loss of the services of any of our key personnel, the inability to identify, attract or retain qualified personnel in the future or delays in hiring qualified personnel, particularly engineers and sales personnel, could make it difficult for us to manage our business and meet key objectives, such as timely product introductions. In addition, we do not have long-term employment contracts or key person life insurance covering any of our key personnel. If we are unable to attract and retain qualified personnel, we may be unable to manage our business effectively, and our results of operations could suffer. Actions that we are taking to restructure our business to cut costs in order to align our operating structure with current opportunities may not be as effective as anticipated. In December 2018, we implemented the 2018 Restructuring Plan as part of a comprehensive review of our operations and ongoing integration synergies in order to optimize resources for future growth, improve efficiencies and address redundancies following the Acquisition. As part of the 2018 Restructuring Plan, we sought to reduce expenses, streamline the organization, and reallocate resources to align more closely with our needs going forward. While we expect to realize efficiencies from these actions, these activities might not produce the full efficiency and cost reduction benefits we expect. For example, in the third quarter of 2019, we completed the transfer of our manufacturing operations in Berlin, Germany to a contract manufacturer. We may not fully realize all the projected cost savings from the closure of this site or other sites, which would harm our 23 business. In addition, any disruptions in the smooth transition to a third-party manufacturer could damage customer relations and harm our ability to achieve our financial plans. Further, any anticipated benefits from the 2018 Restructuring Plan, or from the 2020 Restructuring Plan initiated in the second quarter of 2020, may be realized later than expected or not at all, and the ongoing costs of implementing these measures may be greater than anticipated. In addition, as a result of these restructuring actions, our ability to execute on product development, address key market opportunities and/or meet customer demand could be materially and adversely affected. We rely on various third-party service partners to help complement our global operations, and failure to adequately manage these relationships could adversely impact our financial results and relationships with customers. We rely on a number of third-party service partners, both domestic and international, to complement our global operations. We rely upon these partners for certain installation, maintenance, logistics and support functions. In addition, as our customers increasingly seek to rely on vendors to perform additional services relating to the design, construction and operation of their networks, the scope of work performed by our service partners is likely to increase and may include areas where we have less experience providing or managing such services. We must successfully identify, assess, train and certify qualified service partners in order to ensure the proper installation, deployment and maintenance of our products. The vetting and certification of these partners can be costly and time-consuming, and certain partners may not have the same operational history, financial resources and scale as we have. Moreover, certain service partners may provide similar services for other companies, including our competitors. We may not be able to manage our relationships with our service partners effectively, and we cannot be certain that they will be able to deliver services in the manner or time required, that we will be able to maintain the continuity of their services, or that they will adhere to our approach to ethical business practices. Our service partners may also experience challenges in providing services to us as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. We may also be exposed to a number of risks or challenges relating to the performance of our service partners, including: • • • • delays in recognizing revenue; liability for injuries to persons, damage to property or other claims relating to the actions or omissions of our service partners; our services revenue and gross margin may be adversely affected; and our relationships with customers could suffer. If we do not effectively manage our relationships with third-party service partners, or if they fail to perform these services in the manner or time required, our financial results and relationships with our customers could be adversely affected. We must respond to rapid technological change and comply with evolving industry standards and requirements for our products to be successful. The optical transport networking equipment market is characterized by rapid technological change, changes in customer requirements and evolving industry standards. We continually invest in research and development to sustain or enhance our existing products, but the introduction of new communications technologies and the emergence of new industry standards or requirements could render our products obsolete. Further, in developing our products, we have made, and will continue to make, assumptions with respect to which standards or requirements will be adopted by our customers and competitors. If the standards or requirements adopted by our prospective customers are different from those on which we have focused our efforts, market acceptance of our products would be reduced or delayed, and our business would be harmed. We are continuing to invest a significant portion of our research and development efforts in the development of our next-generation products. We expect our competitors will continue to improve the performance of their existing products and introduce new products and technologies and to influence customers’ buying criteria so as to emphasize product capabilities that we do not, or may not, possess. To be competitive, we must anticipate future customer requirements and continue to invest significant resources in research and development, sales and marketing, and customer support. If we do not anticipate these future customer requirements and invest in the technologies necessary to enable us to have and to sell the appropriate solutions, 24 it may limit our competitive position and future sales, which would have an adverse effect on our business and financial condition. We may not have sufficient resources to make these investments and we may not be able to make the technological advances necessary to be competitive. The manufacturing process for our optical engine, and the assembly of our finished products, is very complex. The partial or complete loss of any of our manufacturing facilities, a reduction in yields of our PICs or an inability to scale capacity to meet customer demands could harm our business. The manufacturing process for our optical engine, including the PICs, DSPs and specialized ASICs, and the assembly of our finished products, is very complex. In the event that any of our manufacturing facilities utilized to build these components and assemble our finished products were fully or partially destroyed, or shut down, as a result of a natural disaster, work stoppage or otherwise, it could severely limit our ability to sell our products. Because of the complex nature of our manufacturing facilities, such loss would take a considerable amount of time to repair or replace. The partial or complete loss of any of our manufacturing facilities, or an event causing the interruption in our use of any such facilities, whether as a result of a natural disaster, like the COVID- 19 pandemic, work stoppage or otherwise, for any extended period of time would cause our business, financial condition and results of operations to be harmed. Minor deviations in the PIC manufacturing process can cause substantial decreases in yields and, in some cases, cause production to be suspended. In the past, we have had significant variances in our PIC yields, including production interruptions and suspensions and may have continued yield variances, including additional interruptions or suspensions in the future. Lower than expected yields from our PIC manufacturing process or defects, integration issues or other performance problems in our products could limit our ability to satisfy customer demand requirements, and could damage customer relations and cause business reputation problems, harming our business and operating results. Our inability to obtain sufficient manufacturing capacity to meet demand, either in our own facilities or through foundry or similar arrangements with third parties, could harm our relationships with our customers, our business and our results of operations. If our contract manufacturers do not perform as we expect, our business may be harmed. We rely on third-party contract manufacturers to perform a portion of the manufacturing of our products, and our future success will depend on our ability to have sufficient volumes of our products manufactured in a cost-effective and quality-controlled manner. We have engaged third parties to manufacture certain elements of our products at multiple contract manufacturing sites located around the world but do not have long-term agreements in place with some of our manufacturers and suppliers that will guarantee product availability, or the continuation of particular pricing or payment terms. We face a number of risks due to our dependence on contract manufacturers, including: • • • • • • • • reduced control over delivery schedules, particularly for international contract manufacturing sites; reliance on the quality assurance procedures of third parties; potential uncertainty regarding manufacturing yields and costs; potential lack of adequate capacity during periods of high demand; potential variability of pricing or payment terms due to agreement length; risks and uncertainties associated with the locations or countries where our products are manufactured, including potential manufacturing disruptions caused by social, geopolitical, environmental or health factors, including pandemics or widespread health epidemics, such as the COVID-19 pandemic; limited warranties on components; potential misappropriation of our intellectual property; and 25 • potential manufacturing disruptions (including disruptions caused by geopolitical events, military actions, work stoppages, natural disasters or international health emergencies such as the COVID- 19 pandemic). Any of these risks could impair our ability to fulfill orders. Any delays by our contract manufacturers may cause us to be unable to meet the delivery requirements of our customers, which could decrease customer satisfaction and harm our product sales. In addition, if our contract manufacturers are unable or unwilling to continue manufacturing our products or components of our products in required volumes or our relationship with any of our contract manufacturers is discontinued for any reason, we would be required to identify and qualify alternative manufacturers, which could cause us to be unable to meet our supply requirements to our customers and result in the breach of our customer agreements. Qualifying a new contract manufacturer and commencing volume production is expensive and time-consuming. If we are required to change or qualify a new contract manufacturer, we could lose revenue and damage our customer relationships. If we fail to accurately forecast our manufacturing requirements or customer demand, we could incur additional costs, including inventory write-downs or equipment write-offs, which would adversely affect our business and results of operations. We generate forecasts of future demand for our products several months prior to the scheduled delivery to our prospective customers. This requires us to make significant investments before we know if corresponding revenue will be recognized. Lead times for materials and components, including ASICs, that we need to order for the manufacture of our products vary significantly and depend on factors such as the specific supplier, contract terms and demand for each component at a given time. In the past, we have experienced lengthened lead times for certain components. If the lead times for components are lengthened, we may be required to purchase increased levels of such components to satisfy our delivery commitments to our customers. In addition, we must manage our inventory to ensure we continue to meet our commitments as we introduce new products or make enhancements to our existing products. If we overestimate market demand for our products and, as a result, increase our inventory in anticipation of customer orders that do not materialize, we will have excess inventory, which could result in increased risk of obsolescence and significant inventory write-downs. Furthermore, this will result in reduced production volumes and our fixed costs will be spread across fewer units, increasing our per unit costs. If we underestimate demand for our products, we will have inadequate inventory, which could slow down or interrupt the manufacturing of our products, cause delays in shipments and our ability to recognize revenue, and result in potential loss of customers to competitors. In addition, we may be unable to meet our supply commitments to customers, which could result in a loss of certain customer opportunities or a breach of our customer agreements. Our large customers have substantial negotiating leverage, which may cause us to agree to terms and conditions that result in lower average selling prices and potentially increased cost of sales leading to lower gross margin, each of which would harm our results of operations. Many of our customers are large service providers and ICPs that have substantial purchasing power and leverage in negotiating contractual arrangements with us. In addition, customer consolidation in the past few years has created combined companies that are even larger and have greater negotiating leverage. Our customers have sought and may continue to seek advantageous pricing, payment and other commercial terms. We have agreed and may continue to agree to unfavorable commercial terms with these customers, including the potential of reducing the average selling price of our products, increasing cost of sales or agreeing to extended payment terms in response to these commercial requirements or competitive pricing pressures. To maintain acceptable operating results, we will need to comply with these commercial terms, develop and introduce new products and product enhancements on a timely basis, and continue to reduce our costs, which could affect our results of operations. Our sales cycle can be long and unpredictable, which could result in an unexpected revenue shortfall in any given quarter. Our products can have a lengthy sales cycle, which can extend from six to twelve months and may take even longer for larger prospective customers. Our prospective customers conduct significant evaluation, testing, implementation and acceptance procedures before they purchase our products. We incur substantial sales and 26 marketing expenses and expend significant management effort during this time, regardless of whether we make a sale. We have seen a lengthening of our sales cycle as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, due to delays in the customer certification process for our products resulting from customer facility closures or access restrictions. Because the purchase of our equipment involves substantial cost, most of our customers wait to purchase our equipment until they are ready to deploy it in their network. As a result, it is difficult for us to accurately predict the timing of future purchases by our customers. In addition, product purchases are often subject to budget constraints, multiple approvals and unplanned administrative processing and other delays, including the need for the customer to obtain external financing. If sales expected from customers for a particular quarter are not realized in that quarter or at all, our revenue will be negatively impacted. Any acquisitions or strategic transaction that we undertake could disrupt our business and harm our financial condition and operations. We have made strategic acquisitions of businesses, technologies and other assets in the past, including most recently the Acquisition. We may engage in acquisitions, divestitures or other strategic transactions in the future. In order to undertake certain of these transactions, we may use cash, issue equity that could dilute our current stockholders, or incur debt or assume indebtedness. If we are unable to achieve the anticipated strategic benefits of such transactions, it could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the market price of our common stock could be adversely affected if investors and securities analysts react unfavorably to a strategic transaction or if the integration or the anticipated financial and strategic benefits of such transactions are not realized as rapidly as or to the extent anticipated by investors and securities analysts. Acquisitions, divestitures or other strategic transactions can also result in adverse tax consequences, warranty or product liability exposure related to acquired assets, additional stock-based compensation expense, and write-up of acquired inventory to fair value. Divestitures can also result in contractual, employment or intellectual property liability related to divested assets. In addition, we may record goodwill and other purchased intangible assets in connection with an acquisition and incur impairment charges in the future. If our actual results, or the plans and estimates used in future impairment analyses, are less favorable than the original estimates used to assess the recoverability of these assets, we could incur additional impairment charges. Acquisitions, divestitures or other strategic transactions also involve numerous risks that could disrupt our ongoing business and distract our management team, including: • • • • • • problems integrating the acquired operations, technologies or products with our own; challenges in divesting assets and intellectual property without negatively affecting our retained business lines; diversion of management’s attention from our core business; adverse effects on existing business relationships with suppliers and customers; risks associated with entering new markets or exiting existing markets; and loss of key employees. Our failure to adequately manage the risks associated with an acquisition, divestment or strategic transaction could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Financial and Macroeconomic Risk Factors We may be unable to generate the cash flow necessary to make anticipated capital expenditures, service our debt or grow our business. We may not be able to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to make anticipated capital expenditures, to enable us to service our debt or to grow our business. For example, in each of the fiscal years since the completion of the Acquisition, we have had a net loss and negative cash flows from operations and we may continue to incur losses and negative cash flows from operations in the future periods. Our ability to pay our 27 expenses, service our debt and fund planned capital expenditures will depend on our future performance, which will be affected by general economic, competitive, legislative, political, regulatory, public health issues and other factors beyond our control, and our ability to continue to realize synergies and anticipated cost savings. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow from operations or to borrow sufficient funds in the future to service our debt or to make anticipated capital expenditures, we may be required to sell assets, reduce capital expenditures or evaluate alternatives for efficiently funding our capital expenditures and ongoing operations, including the issuance of equity, equity-linked and debt securities. Unfavorable macroeconomic and market conditions may adversely affect our industry, business and financial results. In the past, unfavorable macroeconomic and market conditions have resulted in sustained periods of decreased demand for optical communications products. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively affected the economies of many countries and has created significant uncertainty regarding global macroeconomic conditions. The COVID-19 pandemic has also led to increased disruption and volatility in capital markets and credit markets. These conditions may also result in the tightening of credit markets, which could limit or delay our customers’ ability to obtain necessary financing for their purchases of our products. A lack of liquidity in the capital markets or the continued uncertainty in the global economic environment may cause our customers to delay or cancel their purchases, or increase the time they take to pay or default on their payment obligations, each of which would negatively affect our business and operating results. Weakness and uncertainty in the global economy could cause some of our customers to become illiquid, delay payments or adversely affect our collection of their accounts, which could result in a higher level of bad debt expense. In addition, currency fluctuations could negatively affect our international customers’ ability or desire to purchase our products. Challenging economic conditions have from time to time contributed to slowdowns in the telecommunications industry in which we operate. Such slowdowns may result in: • • • • • reduced demand for our products as a result of constraints on capital spending by our customers; increased price competition for our products, not only from our competitors, but also as a result of our customer’s or potential customer’s utilization of inventoried or underutilized products, which could put additional downward pressure on our near-term gross profits; risk of excess or obsolete inventories; our customers facing financial difficulties, including bankruptcy; excess manufacturing capacity and higher associated overhead costs as a percentage of revenue; and • more limited ability to accurately forecast our business and future financial performance. A lack of liquidity and economic uncertainty may adversely affect our suppliers or the terms on which we purchase products from these suppliers. It may also cause some of our suppliers to become illiquid. Any of these impacts could limit our ability to obtain components for our products from these suppliers and could adversely impact our supply chain or the delivery schedule to our customers. This also could require us to purchase more expensive components, or re-design our products, which could cause increases in the cost of our products and delays in the manufacturing and delivery of our products. Such events could harm our gross margin and harm our reputation and our customer relationships, either of which could harm our business and operating results. If we need additional capital in the future, it may not be available to us on favorable terms, or at all. 28 Our business requires significant capital. We have historically relied on outside debt or equity financing as well as cash flow from operations to fund our operations, capital expenditures and expansion. For example, in September 2018, we issued convertible senior notes due September 1, 2024 (the “2024 Notes”) to pay the cost of related capped call transactions, as discussed below, to fund the cash portion of the purchase price of the Acquisition, and for general corporate purposes. In August 2019 and as supplemented in December 2019, we entered into the Credit Facility with Wells Fargo Bank and BMO Harris Bank N.A. to provide additional working capital flexibility to manage our business. In addition, in March 2020 we issued convertible senior notes due March 1, 2027 (the “2027 Notes” and, together with the 2024 Notes, the “Notes”) to raise additional funds for general corporate purposes, including working capital to fund growth and potential strategic projects. For additional risks related to the Notes, please see “Common Stock and Indebtedness Risk Factors” below. In August 2020, we entered into the Sales Agreement with Jefferies LLC ("Jefferies") under which we issued and sold through Jefferies, acting as agent and/or principal, shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of $96.3 million, to raise funds for general corporate purposes, including working capital and capital expenditures. We may require additional capital from equity or equity-linked financing, debt financing or other financings in the future to fund our operations, respond to competitive pressures or strategic opportunities or to refinance our existing debt obligations. In the event that we require additional capital, we may not be able to secure timely additional financing on favorable terms, or at all, and may be affected by any impact of the COVID- 19 pandemic on capital markets. The terms of any additional financing may place limits on our financial and operating flexibility. If we raise additional funds through further issuances of equity, convertible debt securities or other securities convertible into equity, our existing stockholders could suffer dilution in their percentage ownership of our company, and any new securities we issue could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of holders of our common stock. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us, if and when we require it, our ability to grow or support our business and to respond to business challenges could be limited and our business will be harmed. Our international sales and operations subject us to additional risks that may harm our operating results. Sales of our products into international markets continue to be an important part of our business. During fiscal 2020, fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2018, we derived approximately 54%, 52% and 49%, respectively, of our revenue from customers outside of the United States. We expect that significant management attention and financial resources will be required for our international activities over the foreseeable future as we continue to operate in international markets. In some countries, our success in selling our products and growing revenue will depend in part on our ability to form relationships with local partners. Our inability to identify appropriate partners or reach mutually satisfactory arrangements for international sales of our products could impact our ability to maintain or increase international market demand for our products. In addition, many of the companies we compete against internationally have greater name recognition and a more substantial sales and marketing presence. We have sales and support personnel in numerous countries worldwide. In addition, we have established development centers in Canada, China, Finland, Germany, India, Portugal and Sweden. There is no assurance that our reliance upon development resources in international locations will enable us to achieve meaningful cost reductions or greater resource efficiency. As a result of the Acquisition, we now have sales and support personnel in a greater number of geographical locations throughout APAC (including China) and EMEA (with offices in the Middle East). As a result of having global operations, the sudden disruption of the supply chain and/or the manufacture of our customer’s components caused by events outside of our control could impact our results of operations by impairing our ability to timely and efficiently deliver our products or provide installation and maintenance services to our customers. For example, the global COVID-19 pandemic may cause a disruption of the global supply chain for certain components necessary for our products and could threaten the health and safety of our employees. Our international operations are subject to inherent risks, and our future results could be adversely affected by a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control, including: • greater difficulty in collecting accounts receivable and longer collection periods; 29 • • • • • • • • difficulties of managing and staffing international offices, and the increased travel, infrastructure and legal compliance costs associated with multiple international locations; political, social and economic instability, including wars, terrorism, political unrest, boycotts, curtailment of trade and other business restrictions; tariff and trade barriers and other regulatory requirements, contractual limitations, or customer specifications impacting our ability to sell or develop our products in certain foreign markets; less effective protection of intellectual property than is afforded to us in the United States or other developed countries; potentially adverse tax consequences; natural disasters, acts of war or terrorism, and health crises, including the COVID-19 pandemic; changes to free trade agreements, trade protection measures, tariffs, export compliance, domestic preference procurement requirements, qualification to transact business and additional regulatory requirements, including changes related to policy and other changes related to the recent change in presidential administration in the United States; and effects of changes in currency exchange rates, particularly relative increases in the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar versus other currencies that could negatively affect our financial results and cash flows. International customers may also require that we comply with certain testing or customization of our products to conform to local standards. The product development costs to test or customize our products could be extensive and a material expense for us. Our international operations are subject to increasingly complex foreign and U.S. laws and regulations, including but not limited to anti-corruption laws, such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the UK Bribery Act, antitrust or competition laws, anti-money laundering laws, various trade controls, national security related regulations, and data privacy laws, among others. Violations of these laws and regulations could result in fines and penalties, criminal sanctions against us, our officers, or our employees, prohibitions on the conduct of our business and on our ability to offer our products and services in one or more countries, and could also materially affect our reputation, our international expansion efforts, our ability to attract and retain employees, our business, and our operating results. Although we have implemented policies, procedures and training designed to ensure compliance with these laws and regulations, there can be no complete assurance that any individual employee, contractor or agent will not violate our policies. Additionally, the costs of complying with these laws (including the costs of investigations, auditing and monitoring) could also adversely affect our current or future business. As we continue to expand our business globally, our success will depend, in large part, on our ability to effectively anticipate and manage these and other risks and expenses associated with our international operations. For example, political instability and uncertainty in the European Union ("the EU") and, in particular, the United Kingdom's exit from the E.U., could slow economic growth in the region, affect foreign exchange rates, and could further discourage near-term economic activity, leading to our customers delaying purchases of our products. Our failure to manage any of these risks successfully could harm our international operations and reduce our international sales, adversely affecting our business, financial condition and results of operations. 30 We may be adversely affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates. A portion of our sales and expenses stem from countries outside of the United States, and are in currencies other than U.S. dollars, and therefore subject to foreign currency fluctuation. Accordingly, fluctuations in foreign currency rates could have a material impact on our financial results in future periods. We currently enter into foreign currency exchange forward contracts to reduce the impact of foreign currency fluctuations on certain non-functional currency account balances, and also to reduce the volatility of cash flows primarily related to forecasted foreign currency revenue and expenses. These forward contracts reduce the impact of currency exchange rate movements on certain transactions, but do not cover all foreign-denominated transactions and therefore do not entirely eliminate the impact of fluctuations in exchange rates on our results of operations and financial condition. Our effective tax rate may increase or fluctuate, which could increase our income tax expense and reduce our net income. Our effective tax rate and the amount of our taxable income could be subject to volatility or adversely affected by several factors, many of which are outside of our control, including: • • • • • • changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities, and in deferred tax valuation allowances; changes in the relative proportions of revenue and income before taxes in the various jurisdictions in which we operate that have differing statutory tax rates; changing tax laws, regulations, rates and interpretations in multiple jurisdictions in which we operate; changes to the financial accounting rules for income taxes; the tax effects of acquisitions; and the resolution of issues arising from tax audits. For example, the 2017 Tax Act made a number of changes to the taxation of business entities and the U.S. Department of Treasury continues to issue regulations and interpretative guidance related thereto, which may impact our future effective tax rate. Many countries and organizations such as the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development are actively considering changes to existing tax laws or have proposed or enacted new laws that could increase our tax obligations in countries where we do business or cause us to change the way we operate our business. Any changes in federal, state or international tax laws or tax rulings could adversely affect our effective tax rate and our results of operations. Our debt obligations may adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital and will be a burden on our future cash resources, particularly if we elect to settle these obligations in cash upon conversion or upon maturity or required repurchase. As of December 26, 2020, we had $402.5 million outstanding aggregate principal amount of 2024 Notes and $200.0 million outstanding aggregate principal amount of 2027 Notes. The degree to which we are leveraged could have important consequences, including, but not limited to, the following: • • our ability to obtain additional financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, litigation, general corporate or other purposes may be limited; and a substantial portion of our future cash balance may be dedicated to the payment of the principal of our indebtedness as we have stated the intention to pay the principal amount of each series Notes in cash upon conversion or when otherwise due, such that we would not have those funds available for use in our business. Our ability to meet our payment obligations under our debt instruments, including the Notes, depends on our future cash flow performance. This, to some extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative and regulatory factors, as well as other factors that may be beyond our control. There can be no 31 assurance that our business will generate positive cash flow from operations, or that additional capital will be available to us, in an amount sufficient to enable us to meet our debt payment obligations and to fund other liquidity needs. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow to service our debt obligations, we may need to refinance or restructure our debt, sell assets, reduce or delay capital investments, or seek to raise additional capital. If we are unable to implement one or more of these alternatives, we may be unable to meet our debt payment obligations. As a result, we may be more vulnerable to economic downturns, less able to withstand competitive pressures and less flexible in responding to changing business and economic conditions. We may issue additional shares of our common stock in connection with conversions of the 2024 Notes, and thereby dilute our existing stockholders and potentially adversely affect the market price of our common stock. In the event that some or all of each series of Notes are converted and we elect to deliver shares of common stock, the ownership interests of existing stockholders will be diluted, and any sales in the public market of any shares of our common stock issuable upon such conversion could adversely affect the prevailing market price of our common stock. In addition, the anticipated conversion of any series of Notes could depress the market price of our common stock. The fundamental change provisions of the 2024 Notes and the 2027 Notes may delay or prevent an otherwise beneficial takeover attempt of us. If a fundamental change, such as an acquisition of our company, occurs prior to the maturity of the 2024 Notes or 2027 Notes, holders of the applicable series of Notes will have the right, at their option, to require us to repurchase all or a portion of their Notes of such series. In addition, if such fundamental change also constitutes a make-whole fundamental change, the conversion rate for the applicable series of Notes may be increased upon conversion of the such series of Notes in connection with such make-whole fundamental change. Any increase in the conversion rate will be determined based on the date on which the make-whole fundamental change occurs or becomes effective and the price paid (or deemed paid) per share of our common stock in such transaction. Any such increase will be dilutive to our existing stockholders. Our obligation to repurchase any series of Notes or increase the conversion rate upon the occurrence of a make-whole fundamental change may, in certain circumstances, delay or prevent a takeover of us that might otherwise be beneficial to our stockholders. The Capped Calls may affect the value of the 2024 Notes and our common stock. In connection with the issuance of the 2024 Notes, we entered into capped call transactions (the "Capped Calls") with certain financial institutions who are the option counterparties. The capped call transactions are expected generally to reduce or offset the potential dilution upon conversion of the 2024 Notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted 2024 Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. From time to time, the option counterparties or their respective affiliates may modify their hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to our common stock and/or purchasing or selling our common stock or other securities of ours in secondary market transactions prior to the maturity of the 2024 Notes. This activity could also cause or avoid an increase or a decrease in the market price of our common stock. We are subject to counterparty risk with respect to the Capped Calls. The option counterparties to the capped call transactions are financial institutions, and we will be subject to the risk that any or all of them might default under the capped call transactions. Our exposure to the credit risk of the counterparties will not be secured by any collateral. Past global economic conditions have resulted in the actual or perceived failure or financial difficulties of many financial institutions. If an option counterparty becomes subject to insolvency proceedings, we will become an unsecured creditor in those proceedings with a claim equal to our exposure at the time under the capped call transactions with such option counterparty. Our exposure will depend on many factors but, generally, an increase in our exposure will be correlated to an increase in the market price and in the volatility of our common stock. In addition, upon a default by an option counterparty, we may suffer adverse tax consequences and more dilution than we currently anticipate with respect to our common stock. We can provide no assurance as to the financial stability or viability of the option counterparties. 32 Legal and Regulatory Risk Factors If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our competitive position could be harmed, or we could incur significant expense to enforce our rights. We depend on our ability to protect our proprietary technology. We rely on a combination of methods to protect our intellectual property, including limiting access to certain information, and utilizing trade secret, patent, copyright and trademark laws and confidentiality agreements with employees and third parties, all of which offer only limited protection. The steps we have taken to protect our proprietary rights may be inadequate to preclude misappropriation or unauthorized disclosure of our proprietary information or infringement of our intellectual property rights, and our ability to police such misappropriation, unauthorized disclosure or infringement is uncertain, particularly in countries outside of the United States. This is likely to become an increasingly important issue if we expand our operations and product development into countries that provide a lower level of intellectual property protection. We do not know whether any of our pending patent applications will result in the issuance of patents or whether the examination process will require us to narrow our claims, and even if patents are issued, they may be contested, circumvented or invalidated. Moreover, the rights granted under any issued patents may not provide us with a competitive advantage, and, as with any technology, competitors may be able to develop similar or superior technologies to our own now or in the future. Protecting against the unauthorized use of our products, trademarks and other proprietary rights is expensive, difficult, time consuming and, in some cases, impossible. Litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce or defend our intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets or to determine the validity or scope of the proprietary rights of others. Such litigation could result in substantial cost and diversion of management resources, either of which could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, many of our current and potential competitors have the ability to dedicate substantially greater resources to enforce their intellectual property rights than we do. Accordingly, despite our efforts, we may not be able to prevent third parties from infringing upon or misappropriating our intellectual property. Claims by others that we infringe their intellectual property could harm our business. Our industry is characterized by the existence of a large number of patents and frequent claims and related litigation regarding patent and other intellectual property rights. In particular, many leading companies in the optical transport networking industry, including our competitors, have extensive patent portfolios with respect to optical transport networking technology. In addition, non-practicing patent holding companies seek to monetize patents they have purchased or otherwise obtained. We expect that infringement claims may increase as the number of products and competitors in our market increases and overlaps in technology implementation occur. From time to time, third parties may assert exclusive patent, copyright, trademark and other intellectual property rights to technologies and related standards that are important to our business or seek to invalidate the proprietary rights that we hold. Competitors or other third parties have asserted, and may continue to assert claims or initiate litigation or other proceedings against us or our manufacturers, suppliers or customers alleging infringement of their proprietary rights, or seeking to invalidate our proprietary rights, with respect to our products and technology. In addition, in the past we have had certain patent licenses with third parties that have not been renewed, and if we cannot successfully renew these licenses, we could face claims of infringement. In the event that we are unsuccessful in defending against any such claims, or any resulting lawsuits or proceedings, we could incur liability for damages and/or have valuable proprietary rights invalidated. For additional information regarding certain of the legal proceedings in which we are involved, see Part I, Item 3, "Legal Proceedings." Any claim of infringement from a third party, even one without merit, could cause us to incur substantial costs defending against the claim, and could distract our management from running our business. Furthermore, a party making such a claim, if successful, could secure a judgment that requires us to pay substantial damages or could include an injunction or other court order that could prevent us from offering our products. In addition, we might be required to seek a license for the use of such intellectual property, which may not be available on commercially reasonable terms or at all. Alternatively, we may be required to develop non-infringing technology, which would require significant effort and expense and may ultimately not be successful. Any of these events could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. Competitors and other third parties have and may continue to assert infringement claims against our customers and sales partners. Any of these claims would require us to initiate or defend potentially protracted and costly litigation on their behalf, regardless of the merits of these claims, because we generally indemnify our 33 customers and sales partners from claims of infringement of proprietary rights of third parties. If any of these claims succeed, we may be forced to pay damages on behalf of our customers or sales partners, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We incorporate free and open source licensed software into our products. Although we monitor our use of such open source software closely, the terms of many open source licenses have not been interpreted by U.S. courts, and there is a risk that such licenses could be construed in a manner that could impose unanticipated conditions or restrictions on our ability to commercialize our products. In addition, non-compliance with open source software license terms and conditions could subject us to potential liability, including intellectual property infringement and/or contract claims. In such events, we may be required to seek licenses from third parties in order to continue offering our products, to re-engineer our products or to discontinue the sale of our products in the event re-engineering cannot be accomplished in a timely manner, any of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. If we fail to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting in the future, the accuracy and timing of our financial reporting may be adversely affected. We are required to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The provisions of the act require, among other things, that we maintain effective internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. Preparing our financial statements involves a number of complex processes, many of which are done manually and are dependent upon individual data input or review. These processes include, but are not limited to, calculating revenue, deferred revenue and inventory costs. While we continue to automate our processes and enhance our review and put in place controls to reduce the likelihood for errors, we expect that for the foreseeable future many of our processes will remain manually intensive and thus subject to human error if we are unable to implement key operation controls around pricing, spending and other financial processes. Prior to the Acquisition, we maintained separate internal controls over financial reporting with different financial reporting processes and different ERP systems, and Coriant, as a private company, was not required to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. In August 2019, we migrated to an integrated ERP system and encountered challenges that impacted our ability to complete our quarter-end closing procedures for the three months ended September 28, 2019 in a timely manner. If we are unable to successfully manage our integrated ERP system and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting of the combined company, we may fail to prevent or detect material misstatements in our financial statements, in which case investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports and the market price of our securities may decline. Additionally, if we encounter any further issues with our integrated ERP system, they may cause time delays and impact our ability to undertake financial reporting in a timely manner. Security incidents, such as data breaches and cyber-attacks, could compromise our intellectual property and proprietary or confidential information and cause significant damage to our business and reputation. In the ordinary course of our business, we maintain sensitive data on our networks, including data related to our intellectual property and data related to our business, customers and business partners, which is considered proprietary or confidential information, and includes certain personal information and other data relating to our employees and others. We believe that companies in the technology industry have been increasingly subject to a wide variety of security incidents, cyber-attacks and other attempts to gain unauthorized access. During the pendency of the COVID-19 pandemic, while so many of our own employees are primarily working from home and accessing our corporate network via remote devices, the potential for such events to occur is even greater. While the secure maintenance of this information is critical to our business and reputation, our network and storage applications, and those systems and other business applications maintained by our third-party providers, may be subject to unauthorized access by hackers or breached due to operator error, malfeasance or other system disruptions. It may be difficult to anticipate or immediately detect such security incidents or data breaches and the damage caused as a result. Accordingly, a data breach, cyber-attack, or any other unauthorized access or disclosure of our information or other information that we or our third-party vendors maintain could compromise our intellectual property and result in loss of or unauthorized access to proprietary or confidential information. While we continually work to safeguard our internal network systems and validate the security of our third-party providers to mitigate these potential risks, including through information security policies and employee awareness and training, there is no assurance that such actions will be sufficient to prevent cyber-attacks or security breaches. We also may face difficulties or delays in identifying or responding to security breaches and other security-related incidents. We have been subjected in the past to a range of 34 incidents including phishing, emails purporting to come from an executive or vendor seeking payment requests, malware and communications from look-alike corporate domains. While these have not had a material effect on our business or our network security to date, security incidents involving access or improper use of our systems, networks or products could compromise confidential or otherwise protected information, destroy or corrupt data, or otherwise disrupt our operations. These security incidents could cause us to incur significant costs and expenses to remediate and otherwise respond to the incident, subject us to regulatory actions and investigations, disrupt key business operations, open us up to liability, and divert attention of management and key information technology resources, any of which could cause significant harm to our business and reputation. Even the perception of inadequate security may damage our reputation and negatively impact our business. Further, we could be required to expend significant capital and other resources to address any data security incident or breach and in an effort to prevent future security incidents and breaches. We are subject to governmental regulations that could adversely affect our business. We are subject to governmental regulations that could adversely affect our business. This includes U.S. and foreign trade control laws that may limit where and to whom we are permitted to sell our products as well as the impact of new or revised environmental rules and regulations or other social initiatives on how and where we manufacture our products. In particular, our manufacturing operations use substances that are regulated by various federal, state, local, foreign and international laws and regulations governing health, safety and the environment, including WEEE, RoHS and REACH regulations adopted by the European Union. From time to time, the European Union restricts or considers restricting certain substances under these Directives. For example, indium phosphide is currently being considered for restriction under RoHS. Any restriction of indium phosphide or any other substance integral to our systems could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results. In addition, if we experience a problem with complying with these laws and regulations, it could cause an interruption or delay in our manufacturing operations or it could cause us to incur liabilities or costs related to health, safety or environmental remediation or compliance. We could also be subject to liability if we do not handle these substances in compliance with safety standards for handling, storage and transportation and applicable laws and regulations. If we experience a problem or fail to comply with such safety standards or laws and regulations, our business, financial condition and operating results may be harmed. Changes in regulatory requirements or uncertainty associated with the regulatory environment could delay or impede investment in network infrastructures. The Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) has jurisdiction over the entire U.S. communications industry and, as a result, our products and our U.S. customers are subject to FCC rules and regulations. In December 2017, the FCC voted to roll back its 2015 order regulating broadband internet service providers as telecommunications service carriers under Title II of the Telecommunications Act. This decision repeals net neutrality regulations that prohibit blocking, degrading or prioritizing certain types of internet traffic and restores the light touch regulatory treatment of broadband service in place prior to 2015. Similarly, changes in regulatory tariff requirements or other regulations relating to pricing or terms of carriage on communications networks could slow the development or expansion of network infrastructures and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, international regulatory standards could impair our ability to develop products for international customers in the future. Moreover, many jurisdictions, including the United States, the EU and other regions, are evaluating or have implemented regulations relating to cybersecurity, privacy and data protection, which can affect the market and requirements for networking and communications equipment. For example, the General Data Protection Regulation (the “GDPR”) has been in effect in the EU since May 2018, and similar regulatory standards are now in effect in the United Kingdom following its exit from the EU on December 31, 2020. These EU and UK laws impose stringent data handling requirements on companies that receive or process personal data of residents of the EU and the UK, respectively, and non-compliance could result in significant penalties, including data protection audits and heavy fines. Additionally, California has enacted the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) which, among other things, requires covered companies to provide new disclosures to California consumers and afford such consumers new rights, including the right to opt-out of certain sales of personal information. Enforcement of the CCPA by the California Attorney General began on July 1, 2020. Additionally, a new privacy law, the California Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”) was approved by California voters in the November 2020 election. The CPRA creates obligations relating to certain types of data beginning on January 1, 2022, with implementing regulations expected on or before July 1, 2022, and enforcement beginning July 1, 2023. The CPRA significantly modifies the CCPA, potentially resulting in further uncertainty and requiring us to incur additional costs and expenses in an effort to comply. We cannot fully predict the impact of the GDPR, the CCPA, the CPRA or other laws or regulations relating to cybersecurity, privacy or data protection 35 on our business or operations, but these laws and regulations may require us to modify our data processing practices and policies and to incur substantial costs and expenses in an effort to comply. Any failure to obtain the required approvals or comply with such laws and regulations could result in claims, litigation, and regulatory proceedings. These could result in substantial costs, diversion of resources, fines, penalties, and other damages, and harm to our reputation. Any of these could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. We are subject to various governmental export control, trade sanctions, and import laws and regulations that could impair our ability to compete in international markets or subject us to liability if we violate these controls. In some cases, our products are subject to U.S. and foreign export control laws and regulations, including the Export Administration Regulations administered by the U.S. Department of Commerce, and our activities may be subject to trade and economic sanctions, including those administered by the United States Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) (collectively, “Trade Controls”). As such, a license may be required to export or re-export our products, or provide related services, to certain countries and end-users, and for certain end-uses. Further, our products incorporating encryption functionality may be subject to special controls applying to encryption items and/or certain reporting requirements. We have procedures in place designed to ensure our compliance with Trade Controls, with which failure to comply could subject us to both civil and criminal penalties, including substantial fines, possible incarceration of responsible individuals for willful violations, possible loss of our export or import privileges, and reputational harm. Further, the process for obtaining necessary licenses may be time-consuming or unsuccessful, potentially causing delays in sales or losses of sales opportunities. Trade Controls are complex and dynamic regimes, and monitoring and ensuring compliance can be challenging, particularly given that our products are widely distributed throughout the world and are available for download without registration. Although we have no knowledge that our activities have resulted in violations of Trade Controls, any failure by us or our partners to comply with applicable laws and regulations would have negative consequences for us, including reputational harm, government investigations, and penalties. In addition, various countries regulate the import of certain technologies and have enacted laws that could limit our ability to distribute our products and certain product features or could limit our customers’ ability to implement our products in those countries. Changes in our products or changes in U.S. and foreign import and export regulations may create delays in the introduction of our products in international markets, prevent our customers with international operations from deploying our products throughout their global systems or, in some cases, prevent the import and export of our products to certain countries altogether. For example, in 2018 and 2019, the United States imposed tariffs on a large variety of products originating from China, including some on components that are supplied to us from China. Depending upon the duration and implementation of these and future tariffs, as well as our ability to mitigate their impact, these tariffs could materially affect our business, including in the form of increased cost of goods sold, increased pricing for customers, and reduced sales. At this time, it remains unclear what additional actions, if any, will be taken by the governments of the United States or China with respect to such trade and tariff matters. Any change in import and export regulations or related legislation, shift in approach to the enforcement or scope of existing regulations, or change in the countries, persons or technologies impacted by such regulations, could result in decreased use of our products by, or in our decreased ability to export or sell our products to, existing or potential customers with international operations. Failure to comply with these and similar laws on a timely basis, or at all, or any limitation on our ability to develop, export or sell our products would adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. A portion of our revenue is generated by sales to government entities, which are subject to a number of uncertainties, challenges, and risks. We currently sell many of our solutions to various government entities, and we may in the future increase sales to government entities. Sales to government entities are subject to a number of risks. Selling to government entities can be highly competitive, expensive, and time consuming, often requiring significant upfront time and expense without any assurance that we will complete a sale. In the event that we are successful in being awarded a government contract, such award may be subject to appeals, disputes, or litigation, including, but not limited to, bid protests by unsuccessful bidders. Government demand and payment for our solutions may be impacted by public sector budgetary cycles and funding authorizations, with funding reductions or delays 36 adversely affecting public sector demand for our solutions. Government entities may also have statutory, contractual, or other legal rights to terminate contracts for convenience or due to a default. For purchases by the U.S. federal government, the government may require certain products to be manufactured in the United States and other high cost manufacturing locations, and we may not manufacture all products in locations that meet government requirements, and as a result, our business and results of operations may suffer. Contracts with governmental entities may also include preferential pricing terms, including, but not limited to, “most favored customer” pricing. Additionally, we may be required to obtain special certifications to sell some or all of our solutions to government or quasi-government entities. Such certification requirements for our solutions may change, thereby restricting our ability to sell into the federal government sector until we have attained the revised certification. If our products and subscriptions are late in achieving or fail to achieve compliance with these certifications and standards, or our competitors achieve compliance with these certifications and standards, we may be disqualified from selling our products to such governmental entities, or be at a competitive disadvantage, which would harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. There are no assurances that we will find the terms for obtaining such certifications to be acceptable or that we will be successful in obtaining or maintaining the certifications. As a government contractor or subcontractor, we must comply with laws, regulations, and contractual provisions relating to the formation, administration, and performance of government contracts and inclusion on government contract vehicles, which affect how we and our partners do business with government agencies. As a result of actual or perceived noncompliance with government contracting laws, regulations, or contractual provisions, we may be subject to non-ordinary course audits and internal investigations which may prove costly to our business financially, divert management time, or limit our ability to continue selling our products and services to our government customers. These laws and regulations may impose other added costs on our business, and failure to comply with these or other applicable regulations and requirements, including non- compliance in the past, could lead to claims for damages from our channel partners, downward contract price adjustments or refund obligations, civil or criminal penalties, and termination of contracts and suspension or debarment from government contracting for a period of time with government agencies. Any such damages, penalties, disruption, or limitation in our ability to do business with a government would adversely impact, and could have a material adverse effect on, our business, financial condition, results of operations, public perception, and growth prospects. Our business could be adversely affected if our employees cannot obtain and maintain required security clearances or we cannot maintain a required facility security clearance, or we do not comply with legal and regulatory obligations regarding the safeguarding of classified information. Our U.S. government contract revenue includes income derived from contracts that require our employees to maintain various levels of security clearances, and may require us to maintain a facility security clearance, to comply with Department of Defense (“DoD”) requirements. The DoD has strict security clearance requirements for personnel who perform work in support of classified programs. In general, access to classified information, technology, facilities, or programs are subject to additional contract oversight and potential liability. In the event of a security incident involving classified information, technology, facilities, programs, or personnel holding clearances, we may be subject to legal, financial, operational, and reputational harm. We are limited in our ability to provide specific information about these classified programs, their risks, or any disputes or claims relating to such programs. As a result, investors have less insight into our classified programs than our other businesses and therefore less ability to fully evaluate the risks related to our classified business or our business overall. Obtaining and maintaining security clearances for employees involves a lengthy process, and it is difficult to identify, recruit, and retain employees who already hold security clearances. If our employees are unable to obtain security clearances in a timely manner, or at all, or if our employees who hold security clearances are unable to maintain their clearances or terminate employment with us, then a customer requiring classified work could terminate an existing contract or decide not to renew the contract upon its expiration. To the extent we are not able to obtain or maintain a facility security clearance, we may not be able to bid on or win new classified contracts, and existing contracts requiring a facility security clearance could be terminated. Failure to comply with anti-bribery, anti-corruption, anti-money laundering laws, and similar laws, could subject us to penalties and other adverse consequences. 37 We are subject to the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended (the “FCPA”), the U.S. domestic bribery statute contained in 18 U.S.C. § 201, the U.S. Travel Act, the United Kingdom Bribery Act 2010, and possibly other anti-bribery and anti-money laundering laws in the United States and in countries outside of the United States in which we conduct our activities. Anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws have been enforced aggressively in recent years and are interpreted broadly to generally prohibit companies, their employees, agents, representatives, business partners, and third-party intermediaries from authorizing, offering, or providing, directly or indirectly, improper payments or benefits to recipients in the public or private sector. We sometimes leverage third parties to sell our products and conduct our business abroad. We, our employees, agents, representatives, business partners our third-party intermediaries may have direct or indirect interactions with officials and employees of government agencies or state-owned or affiliated entities and may be held liable for the corrupt or other illegal activities of these employees, agents, representatives, business partners or third-party intermediaries even if we do not explicitly authorize such activities. We cannot assure you that all of our employees and agents will not take actions in violation of applicable law, for which we may be ultimately held responsible. As we increase our international sales and business, our risks under these laws may increase. These laws also require that we keep accurate books and records and maintain internal controls and compliance procedures designed to prevent any such actions. While we have policies and procedures to address compliance with such laws, we cannot assure you that none of our employees, agents, representatives, business partners or third-party intermediaries will take actions in violation of our policies and applicable law, for which we may be ultimately held responsible. Any allegations or violation of the FCPA or other applicable anti-bribery, anti-corruption laws, and anti- money laundering laws could result in whistleblower complaints, sanctions, settlements, prosecution, enforcement actions, fines, damages, adverse media coverage, investigations, loss of export privileges, severe criminal or civil sanctions, or suspension or debarment from U.S. government contracts, all of which may have an adverse effect on our reputation, business, results of operations, and prospects. Responding to any investigation or action will likely result in a materially significant diversion of management’s attention and resources and significant defense costs and other professional fees. General Risk Factors The trading price of our common stock has been volatile and may be volatile in the future. The trading prices of our common stock and the securities of other technology companies have been and may continue to be highly volatile. Factors affecting the trading price of our common stock include: • • • • • variations in our operating results; announcements of technological innovations, new services or service enhancements, strategic alliances or agreements by us or by our competitors; the gain or loss of customers; recruitment or departure of key personnel; changes in the estimates of our future operating results or external guidance on those results or changes in recommendations or business expectations by any securities analysts that elect to follow our common stock; • mergers and acquisitions by us, by our competitors or by our customers; • market conditions in our industry, the industries of our customers and the economy as a whole, including global trade tariffs; • social, geopolitical, environmental or health factors, including pandemics or widespread health epidemics such as the COVID-19 pandemic; and 38 • adoption or modification of regulations, policies, procedures or programs applicable to our business. In addition, if the market for technology stocks or the broader stock market experience a loss of investor confidence, the trading price of our common stock could decline for reasons unrelated to our business, financial condition or results of operations. The trading price of our common stock might also decline in reaction to events that affect other companies in our industry even if these events do not directly affect us. Each of these factors, among others, could harm the value of your investment in our common stock. Some companies that have had volatile market prices for their securities have had securities class action lawsuits filed against them. If a suit were filed against us, regardless of its merits or outcome, it could result in substantial costs and divert management’s attention and resources. Future sales of our common stock could cause our stock price to fall. We have sold, and plan in the future to sell, shares of our common stock in underwritten offerings and have established, and may in the future establish, “at-the-market” offering programs pursuant to which we may offer and sell shares of our common stock. Sales of securities have resulted and will continue to result in dilution of our existing stockholders, and such sales could cause our stock price to fall. In August 2020, we entered into the Sales Agreement with Jefferies under which we issued and sold through Jefferies, acting as agent and/or principal, shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of $96.3 million, to raise funds for general corporate purposes, including working capital and capital expenditures. In addition, if our existing stockholders sell, or indicate an intent to sell, a large number of shares of our common stock in the public market, it could cause our stock price to fall. We may also issue shares of common stock or securities convertible into our common stock from time to time in connection with financings, acquisitions, investments or otherwise. Any such issuance would result in dilution to our existing stockholders and could cause our stock price to fall. Anti-takeover provisions in our charter documents and Delaware law could discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of our company and may affect the trading price of our common stock. We are a Delaware corporation and the anti-takeover provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which apply to us, may discourage, delay or prevent a change in control by prohibiting us from engaging in a business combination with an interested stockholder for a period of three years after the person becomes an interested stockholder, even if a change of control would be beneficial to our existing stockholders. In addition, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws may discourage, delay or prevent a change in our management or control over us that stockholders may consider favorable. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws: • • • • • • authorize the issuance of “blank check” convertible preferred stock that could be issued by our board of directors to thwart a takeover attempt; establish a classified board of directors, as a result of which the successors to the directors whose terms have expired will be elected to serve from the time of election and qualification until the third annual meeting following their election; require that directors only be removed from office for cause; provide that vacancies on the board of directors, including newly created directorships, may be filled only by a majority vote of directors then in office rather than by stockholders; prevent stockholders from calling special meetings; and prohibit stockholder action by written consent, requiring all actions to be taken at a meeting of the stockholders. Our amended and restated bylaws designate the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware and the federal district courts of the United States of America as the exclusive forums for substantially all disputes between us and our stockholders, which will restrict our stockholders’ ability to choose the judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers, or employees. 39 Our amended and restated bylaws provide that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware is the exclusive forum for any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf; any action asserting a breach of fiduciary duty; any action asserting a claim against us arising pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or our bylaws; or any action asserting a claim against us that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine. These provisions would not apply to suits brought to enforce a duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the U.S. federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. Furthermore, Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all such Securities Act actions. Accordingly, both state and federal courts have jurisdiction to entertain such claims. Our stockholders cannot waive compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. To prevent having to litigate claims in multiple jurisdictions and the threat of inconsistent or contrary rulings by different courts, among other considerations, our amended and restated bylaws provide that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States of America will be the exclusive forum for resolving any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. While the Delaware courts have determined that such choice of forum provisions are facially valid, a stockholder may nevertheless seek to bring a claim in a venue other than those designated in the exclusive forum provisions. In such instance, we would expect to vigorously assert the validity and enforceability of the exclusive forum provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation. This may require significant additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions and there can be no assurance that the provisions will be enforced by a court in those other jurisdictions. These exclusive choice of forum provisions may limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers, or other employees, which may discourage lawsuits against us and our directors, officers, and other employees. If a court were to find such exclusive-forum provisions to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur further significant additional costs associated with resolving the dispute in other jurisdictions, all of which could harm our business. Natural disasters, human violence or other catastrophic events could harm our operations. Our headquarters and the majority of our infrastructure, including our PIC fabrication manufacturing facility, are located in Northern California, an area that is susceptible to earthquakes, fires, floods and other natural disasters. Further, attacks and violence aimed at Northern California or at the United States energy or telecommunications infrastructure could hinder or delay the development and sale of our products. In the event that an earthquake, targeted attack or other man-made or natural catastrophe were to destroy any part of our or our contract manufacturers’ facilities, destroy or disrupt vital infrastructure systems or interrupt our operations for any extended period of time, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be harmed. 40 ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS Not applicable. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES Our headquarters are located in San Jose, California, which consist of approximately 82,000 square feet under lease. As of December 26, 2020, we leased approximately 261,000 square feet for research and development and manufacturing in Sunnyvale, California of which approximately 204,000 square feet was terminated and vacated in January 2021. In addition to the leased buildings in San Jose and Sunnyvale, California, we also lease approximately 991,000 square feet of office spaces for research and development centers and for sales, service and support in various countries within (i) North America; (ii) LATAM; (iii) EMEA; and (iv) APAC. All of these leases expire between 2021 and 2031. We also own a facility in Allentown, Pennsylvania. We intend to adjust our facility space to meet our requirements and we believe that suitable additional or substitute space will be available as needed to accommodate our business needs for our operations. We believe that our existing facilities are adequate to meet our business needs through the next 12 months. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The information set forth under the heading “Legal Matters” in Note 14, Commitments and Contingencies, in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K is incorporated herein by reference.

Overview We are a global supplier of networking solutions comprised of networking equipment, software and services. Our portfolio of solutions includes optical transport platforms, converged packet-optical transport platforms, optical line systems, disaggregated router platforms, and a suite of networking and automation software offerings, and support and professional services. Our customers include telecommunications service providers, ICPs, cable providers, wholesale carriers, research and education institutions, large enterprises and government entities. Our networking solutions enable our customers to deliver business and consumer communications services. Our comprehensive portfolio of networking solutions also enables our customers to scale their transport networks as end-user services and applications continue to drive growth in demand for network bandwidth. These end-user services and applications include, but are not limited to, high-speed internet access, business ethernet services, 4G/5G mobile broadband, cloud-based services, high-definition video streaming services, virtual and augmented reality and the Internet of Things. 45 Our systems are highly scalable, flexible and designed with open networking principles for ease of deployment. We build our systems using a combination of internally manufactured and third-party components. Our portfolio includes systems that leverage our innovative optical engine technology, comprised of large-scale PICs and DSPs. We optimize the manufacturing process by using indium phosphide to build our PICs, which enables the integration of hundreds of optical functions onto a set of semiconductor chips. This large-scale integration of our PICs and advanced DSPs allows us to deliver high-performance transport networking platforms with features that customers care about the most, including low cost per bit, low power consumption and space savings. In addition, we design our optical engines to increase the capacity and reach performance of our products by leveraging coherent optical transmission. We believe our vertical integration strategy becomes increasingly more valuable as our customers transition to 800 gigabits per second (“Gb/s”) per wavelength transmission speeds and beyond, as the combination of our optical integration, DSP, and tightly integrated packaging enables a leading optical performance at higher optical speeds. Over time, we plan to integrate our optical engine technology into a broader set of transport platforms in order to enhance customer value and lower production costs. Over the past several years, we expanded our portfolio of solutions, evolving from our initial focus on the long-haul and subsea optical transport markets to offering a more complete suite of packet-optical networking solutions that address multiple markets within the end-to-end transport infrastructure. We achieved this expansion both by developing products internally and through acquisitions of Transmode AB in 2015 and Coriant in 2018. In particular, our acquisition of Coriant enhanced our ability to serve a global customer base and also enabled us to expand the breadth of customer applications we can address, including metro aggregation and switching, disaggregated routing, and software-enabled multi-layer network management and control. Our high-speed optical transport platforms are differentiated by the Infinite Capacity Engine (ICE), our optical engine technology. ICE enables different subsystems that can be customized for a variety of network applications in different transport markets, including metro, DCI, long-haul and subsea. Our latest generation of available optical engine technology delivers multi-terabit opto-electronic subsystems powered by our fourth- generation PIC and latest generation FlexCoherent DSP (the combination of which we market as “ICE4”). As part of the Acquisition, we expanded our high-speed optical transport portfolio with 600 Gb/s transmission capabilities powered by our CloudWave T technology, which enabled us to expand the high-speed transmission applications we can address. Our products are designed to be managed by a suite of software solutions that enable end-to-end common network management, multi-layer service orchestration, and automated operations. We also provide software-enabled programmability that offers differentiated capabilities such as Instant Bandwidth. Combined with our differentiated hardware solutions, Instant Bandwidth enables our customers to purchase and activate bandwidth as needed through our unique software licensing feature set. This, in turn, allows our customers to accomplish two key objectives: (1) limit their initial network startup costs and investments; and (2) instantly activate new bandwidth as their customers’ and their own network needs evolve. We believe our end-to-end portfolio of solutions benefits our customers by providing a unique combination of highly scalable capacity and features that address various applications and ultimately simplify and automate packet-optical network operations. Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic COVID-19 was declared a global pandemic in March 2020. We have been and will continue monitoring and adjusting our operations, as appropriate, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Employees We have taken a number of precautionary steps to safeguard our business and our employees from the effects of the outbreak of COVID-19, including temporarily closing or substantially limiting the presence of personnel in our offices in several impacted locations, implementing travel restrictions and withdrawing from various industry events. Since a large percentage of our workforce is accustomed to online work environments and online collaboration tools, we are able to remain productive and in contact with one another and our customers and vendors. For those employees who may need to be in offices, laboratory and manufacturing environments, or at business partner sites to perform their roles, we are taking appropriate measures to protect 46 their health and safety and create and maintain a safe working environment. However, sustained restrictions on the ability of our engineers to work in our offices as a result of restrictions imposed by governments, or us, has made and could continue to make it more difficult for them to collaborate as effectively as desired in the development of new products, which can affect development schedules. Business Operations In addition, we have implemented certain business continuity plans in response to the COVID-19 pandemic in order to minimize any business disruption and to protect our supply chain, customer fulfillment sites and support operations. Although we believe these actions have mitigated the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, we have experienced some disruption and delays in our supply chain and manufacturing operations, logistics, and customer support operations, including shipping delays, higher transport costs, and certain limitations on our ability to access customer fulfillment and service sites. We are dependent on sole source and limited source suppliers for several key components, and we have experienced capacity issues, longer lead times and increased costs with certain of these component suppliers, impacting our operational processes and results of operations. We have also seen disruptions in customer demand, including due to delays in the customer certification process resulting from customer facility closures or access restrictions. During fiscal 2020, some of these disruptions negatively impacted our revenue and our results of operations. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and results of operations in fiscal 2021 remains uncertain and is dependent in part on future infection rates, the emergence of new strains of the virus, the effectiveness and availability of vaccinations, and broader global macroeconomic developments. We continue to monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and actively assess potential implications to our business, supply chain and customer demand. If the COVID-19 pandemic or its adverse effects become more severe or prevalent or are prolonged in the locations where we, our customers, suppliers or contract manufacturers conduct business, or we experience more pronounced disruptions in our operations, or in economic activity and demand generally, our business and results of operations in future periods could be materially adversely affected. Liquidity and Capital Resources We have implemented measures to preserve cash and enhance liquidity, including suspending salary increases and bonuses, reducing salaries paid to a portion of our workforce, instituting a broad-based hiring freeze, significantly reducing business travel, reducing capital expenditures, and delaying or eliminating discretionary spending. We are also focused on managing our working capital needs, maintaining as much flexibility as possible around timing of taking and paying for inventory and manufacturing our products while managing potential changes or delays in installations. While we believe we have enough cash to operate our business for the next 12 months, if the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to our business and financial position is more extensive than expected, we may need additional capital to enhance liquidity and working capital. We have historically been successful in our ability to secure other sources of financing, such as accessing capital markets, and implementing other cost reduction initiatives such as restructuring, delaying or eliminating discretionary spending to satisfy our liquidity needs. However, our access to these sources of capital could be materially and adversely impacted and we may not be able to receive terms as favorable as we have historically received. Capital markets have been volatile and there is no assurance that we would have access to capital markets at a reasonable cost, or at all, at times when capital is needed. In addition, some of our existing debt has restrictive covenants that may limit our ability to raise new debt, which would limit our ability to access liquidity by those means without obtaining the consent of our lenders. On August 12, 2020, we entered into the Sales Agreement with Jefferies under which we issued and sold through Jefferies, acting as agent and/or principal, shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of $96.3 million, to raise funds for general corporate purposes, including working capital and capital expenditures. During the year ended December 26, 2020, we sold 12,000,000 shares of common stock under the Sales Agreement, for net proceeds of approximately $93.4 million, after paying Jefferies a sales commission of approximately $2.9 million related to services provided as the sales agent with respect to the sales of those shares. 47 Financial and Business Highlights Total revenue was $1,355.6 million in 2020 as compared to $1,298.9 million in 2019, a 4% increase. The year over year increase in revenue was driven by revenue growth from service providers in APAC and from key customers in the United States. This growth was partially offset by lower revenue from our Cable vertical and a large European service provider which had strong revenue related to new deployments in the second half of 2019. In 2021, we anticipate benefiting from a diversified customer base and see several prospective opportunities to grow revenue by driving adoption of new and existing solutions. Our results will depend on overall market conditions and, as is typical, quarter-over-quarter revenue could be volatile, affected by the ongoing pandemic and more generally, customer buying patterns, supply chain disruptions and the timing of customer network deployments. Gross margin increased to 30.2% in 2020 from 25% in 2019. The year over year increase in gross margin was primarily driven by lower integration and restructuring costs, which were higher in 2019 following the Coriant acquisition in 2018, and successful cost reductions stemming from enhanced manufacturing efficiencies as we benefited from site and systems consolidations that were completed during 2019. In 2020, we continued to lower our fixed cost structure and practiced pricing discipline, particularly on products acquired in the Acquisition. In 2021, we intend to continue to improve our fixed cost structure and practice pricing discipline. Additionally, with our ICE6 platform we intend to expand our vertical integration capabilities across more of our product portfolio, which we expect will lower our cost structure and drive continued margin improvement over time. Operating expenses declined to $564.0 million in 2020 from $676.2 million in 2019, a 17% decrease. This decrease was attributable to lower headcount costs, lower costs on travel related to the COVID-19 pandemic, and lower integration and restructuring costs, which were higher in 2019 following the Coriant acquisition. In 2021, we intend to continue to balance prudent cost management with investments in technology innovation and other activities that will drive our future growth. One customer accounted for approximately 11% and 13% of our revenue in 2020 and 2019, respectively. No other customers accounted for over 10% of our revenue in 2020 or 2019. We primarily sell our products through our direct sales force, with the remainder sold indirectly through channel partners. We derived 77% and 79% of our revenue from direct sales to customers in 2020 and 2019, respectively. In the future, we expect to continue generating a majority of our revenue from direct sales. We are headquartered in San Jose, California, with employees located throughout North America, LATAM, EMEA and APAC. 48 Results of Operations The following sets forth, for the periods presented, certain consolidated statements of operations information (in thousands, except percentages): Revenue: Product Services Total revenue Cost of revenue: Product Services Amortization of intangible assets Acquisition and integration costs Restructuring and related Total cost of revenue Gross profit Revenue: Product Services Total revenue Cost of revenue: Product Services Amortization of intangible assets Acquisition and integration costs Restructuring and related Total cost of revenue Gross profit Years Ended December 26, 2020 % of total revenue December 28, 2019 % of total revenue Change % Change $ 1,045,551 310,045 $ 1,355,596 77 % $ 1,011,488 23 % 287,377 100 % $ 1,298,865 78 % $ 34,063 22 % $ 22,668 100 % $ 56,731 $ 751,465 160,118 55 % $ 735,059 12 % 146,916 57 % $ 16,406 11 % $ 13,202 29,247 1,828 4,146 2 % — % — % 32,583 28,449 29,935 3 % $ (3,336) 2 % $ (26,621) 2 % $ (25,789) $ 946,804 $ 408,792 69 % $ 972,942 30.2 % $ 325,923 75 % $ (26,138) 25.0 % $ 82,869 3 % 8 % 4 % 2 % 9 % (10)% (94)% (86)% (3)% 25 % Years Ended December 28, 2019 % of total revenue December 29, 2018 % of total revenue Change % Change $ 1,011,488 287,377 $ 1,298,865 78 % $ 763,555 22 % 179,824 100 % $ 943,379 81 % $ 247,933 19 % $ 107,553 100 % $ 355,486 $ 735,059 146,916 57 % $ 517,765 78,353 11 % 55 % $ 217,294 8 % $ 68,563 32,583 28,449 29,935 3 % 2 % 2 % 23,475 2 % $ 9,108 — — % $ 28,449 2,630 — % $ 27,305 $ 972,942 $ 325,923 75 % $ 622,223 25.0 % $ 321,156 66 % $ 350,719 34.0 % $ 4,767 32 % 60 % 38 % 42 % 88 % 39 % *NMF *NMF 56 % 1 % 49 *NMF - not meaningful Revenue 2020 Compared to 2019. Product revenue increased by $34.1 million, or 3%, in 2020 from 2019. This increase was primarily driven by aforementioned growth from key customers in APAC and the United States. This increase was partially offset by lower revenue from our Cable vertical and a large European customer which had strong revenue related to new deployments in the second half of 2019. Services revenue increased by $22.7 million, or 8%, in 2020 from 2019. This increase was attributable to an increase in amortized revenue stemming from higher services maintenance revenue, driven by a new customer and growth in existing customer renewals, and an increase in professional services revenue primarily from network installations. 2019 Compared to 2018. Product revenue increased by $247.9 million, or 32%, in 2019 from 2018, primarily attributable to the inclusion of Coriant’s revenue for all of 2019 as compared to only the fourth quarter of 2018. Revenue growth was also driven by strong year over year growth from our ICP and Tier 1 verticals. Overall growth was partially offset by a decline from our cable vertical, as compared to a very strong 2018. Services revenue increased by $107.6 million, or 60%, in 2019 from 2018, primarily attributable to the inclusion of Coriant's services revenue for all of 2019 as compared to only the fourth quarter of 2018. Services revenue was slightly offset by lower revenue from our largest cable customer. In line with typical seasonality in our industry, we expect our total revenue will be lower in the first quarter of 2021 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2020, as our customers take time to determine and operationalize their 2021 budgets. Revenue by geographic region is based on the shipping address of the customer. The following table summarizes our revenue by geography and sales channel for the periods presented (in thousands, except percentages): Years Ended December 26, 2020 % of total revenue December 28, 2019 % of total revenue Change % Change Total revenue by geography Domestic International $ 630,422 725,174 $ 1,355,596 47 % $ 628,075 53 % 670,790 100 % $ 1,298,865 48 % $ 2,347 52 % 54,384 100 % $ 56,731 Total revenue by sales channel Direct Indirect $ 1,039,976 315,620 $ 1,355,596 77 % $ 1,032,527 23 % 266,338 100 % $ 1,298,865 79 % $ 7,449 21 % 49,282 100 % $ 56,731 — % 8 % 4 % 1 % 19 % 4 % Total revenue by geography Domestic International Total revenue by sales Direct Indirect Years Ended December 28, 2019 % of total revenue December 29, 2018 % of total revenue Change % Change $ 628,075 670,790 $ 1,298,865 $ 1,032,527 266,338 $ 1,298,865 48 % $ 476,784 52 % 466,595 100 % $ 943,379 51 % $ 151,291 49 % 204,195 100 % $ 355,486 79 % $ 838,931 21 % 104,448 100 % $ 943,379 89 % $ 193,596 11 % 161,890 100 % $ 355,486 32 % 44 % 38 % 23 % 155 % 38 % 50 2020 Compared to 2019. Domestic revenue increased by $2.3 million in 2020 compared to 2019, primarily due to strong growth from ICP customers. In 2020, the growth from our ICP vertical was nearly offset by moderate declines from certain Cable and Tier 1 customers. International revenue increased by $54.4 million, or 8%, in 2020 compared to 2019. In this period, revenue in APAC increased strongly due to certain large new deployments. We also enjoyed growth in Other Americas and in EMEA in 2020. Indirect revenue increased $49.3 million, or 19% primarily due to our growth in international revenue, where in certain regions we typically sell through channel partners as opposed to selling directly to customers. 2019 Compared to 2018. Domestic revenue increased by $151.3 million, or 32%, in 2019 compared to 2018, primarily attributable to the inclusion of Coriant’s revenue for all of 2019 as compared to only the fourth quarter of 2018. In 2019 we saw a significant increase in spending from our ICP and Tier 1 verticals. Growth was partially offset by lower spending from cable operators in 2019, compared to a very strong 2018. International revenue increased by $204.2 million, or 44%, in 2019 compared to 2018, primarily attributable to the inclusion of Coriant’s revenue for all of 2019 as compared to only the fourth quarter of 2018. Additionally, we also benefited from increased ICE4 sales to a key customer in Europe. Indirect revenue increased $161.9 million, or 155% due to the Acquisition, as Coriant’s business model carried a higher proportion revenue driven by channel partners than Infinera’s did historically. Cost of Revenue and Gross Margin 2020 Compared to 2019. Gross margin increased to 30.2% in 2020 from 25% in 2019. In this period our margins benefited from reductions in integration-related expenses and restructuring costs. We also reduced costs attributable to completing site and systems consolidations over the course of 2019. 2019 Compared to 2018. Gross margin decreased to 25% in 2019 from 34.0% in 2018. This decline was primarily due to the mix of products acquired from the Acquisition, as Coriant products historically had a lower margin. As the time of the Acquisition, Coriant carried a higher cost structure largely due to not being vertically integrated. Integration and restructuring expenses also contributed to the gross margin decline. Over the course of 2019, we were able to improve margins by improving pricing discipline and executing on our integration strategy of lowering our cost structure by reducing headcount and transitioning costs to lower cost regions and variable cost models. In any given quarter, gross margins can fluctuate based on a number of factors, including the mix of footprint versus fill, product mix, customer mix and overall volume. We currently expect that gross margin in the first quarter of 2021 will be slightly lower than that of the fourth quarter of 2020. In the first quarter we will look to optimally spread our fixed costs across the seasonally lower anticipated revenue and intend to continue practicing pricing discipline and lowering costs Amortization of Intangible Assets 2020 Compared to 2019. Amortization of intangible assets decreased by $3.3 million in 2020 from 2019 due to certain technologies becoming fully amortized in the third quarter of 2020. The decrease was partially offset by capitalization of in-process technology to developed in the fourth quarter of 2019. 2019 Compared to 2018. Amortization of intangible assets increased by $9.1 million in 2019 from 2018 primarily due to a full year of amortization expense on intangible assets acquired from Coriant. Acquisition and Integration Costs 2020 Compared to 2019. Acquisition and integration costs decreased by $26.6 million in 2020 from 2019. This reduction has been the result of lower integration-related headcount, third-party contractors, and vendor spend during 2020 as we have largely completed our integration efforts. 2019 Compared to 2018. Acquisition and integration costs increased by $28.4 million in 2019 from 2018 as a result of the Acquisition. Costs in 2019 were predominantly integration related, which included the transition of our Berlin manufacturing activities to a contract manufacturer, start-up costs around a new European distribution center, and contractors and employees focused on integration-specific activities. See Note 7, “Business Combination” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the Acquisition. 51 Restructuring and Related 2020 Compared to 2019. In 2020, within cost of revenue, we incurred $4.1 million in restructuring and other related costs, including $4.0 million of severance and related costs and $0.1 million of asset impairment charges and impaired facilities charges. The restructuring and related costs decreased by $25.8 million due to the substantial completion of restructuring initiatives under the 2018 Restructuring Plan in fiscal year 2020. This decrease was partially offset by additional costs under the 2020 Restructuring Plan initiated in the second quarter of 2020. 2019 Compared to 2018. In 2019, within cost of revenue, we incurred $29.9 million in restructuring and other related costs, including $26.6 million of severance and related costs and $2.2 million of asset impairment charges and $1.2 million of impaired facilities charges. These charges were primarily associated with the closure of our Berlin, Germany site and the reduction of headcount at our Munich, Germany site. See Note 10, “Restructuring and Other Related Costs” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on our restructuring plans.

Research and development expenses decreased by $22.3 million, or 8% in 2020 from 2019. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower employee-related costs and lower travel costs due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The decreases were partially offset by higher outside services spend associated with bringing our new technologies to market. As employee-related costs have declined, we have continued to make targeted innovation investments in research and development to support our strategy of expanding our vertically integrated product portfolio, including bringing new products to market quickly. 2019 Compared to 2018. Research and development expenses increased by $43.7 million, or 18%, in 2019 from 2018, primarily due to increased headcount as a result of the Acquisition. Over the course of 2019, R&D expenses grew at a slower rate than revenue, largely due to reducing headcount and lower spending in equipment and materials as we started to benefit from company-wide cost reduction and integration efforts. Sales and Marketing Expenses 2020 Compared to 2019. Sales and marketing expenses decreased by $21.8 million, or 14%, in 2020 from 2019. This decrease was driven by lower travel and marketing-related expenses, primarily driven by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. We also had lower employee-related spend during these periods, primarily due to workforce reduction initiatives. The 2020 decrease was partially offset by higher stock-based compensation expenses. 2019 Compared to 2018. Sales and marketing expenses increased by $27.2 million, or 22%, in 2019 from 2018, primarily due to the inclusion of the Coriant business and higher commission expense as a result of higher revenue. Sales and marketing expenses grew at a slower rate than revenue due to reducing headcount and lower demo and trial spend in conjunction with company-wide cost reduction and integration efforts. General and Administrative Expenses 2020 Compared to 2019. General and administrative expenses decreased by $14.1 million, or 11%, in 2020 from 2019. The decrease was attributable to lower outside services spend stemming from cost management initiatives, lower employee-related expenses, lower travel expenses due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and a litigation settlement in the second quarter of 2019. 2019 Compared to 2018. General and administrative expenses increased by $45.4 million, or 56%, in 2019 from 2018, primarily due to the inclusion of headcount associated expenses from the Coriant business and higher outside professional services. General and administrative expenses grew faster than revenue to ensure we had sufficient infrastructure and operations to support the larger company. Amortization of Intangible Assets 2020 Compared to 2019. Amortization of intangible assets decreased by $8.7 million in 2020 from 2019 primarily due to higher amortization of backlog by $8.1 million in 2019. Backlog is amortized over the expected customer lives. 2019 Compared to 2018. Amortization of intangible assets decreased by $2.0 million in 2019 from 2018, primarily due to higher amortization of backlog in 2018 compared to 2019 offset by higher amortization of customer relationship intangible assets in 2019 as a result of the Acquisition. Acquisition and Integration Costs 2020 Compared to 2019. Acquisition and integration costs decreased by $28.9 million in 2020 from 2019 primarily due to lower integration-related headcount, third-party contractors and vendor spend as we largely completed our integration efforts in 2019. 53 2019 Compared to 2018. Acquisition and integration costs increased by $26.7 million in 2019 from 2018 as a result of the Acquisition. Costs in 2019 were predominantly integration-related including the convergence of three ERP systems into one new corporate ERP system, other systems-related integration activities, and costs related to contractors and headcount focused on integration-specific activities. See Note 7, “Business Combination” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the Acquisition. Restructuring and Related 2020 Compared to 2019. Restructuring and related costs decreased by $16.3 million in 2020 compared to 2019. The severance and related costs decreased by $11.2 million due to the substantial completion of restructuring initiatives under the 2018 Restructuring Plan in fiscal year 2020. This decrease was partially offset by additional costs under the 2020 Restructuring Plan initiated in the second quarter of 2020. Facilities-related impairment charges decreased by $4.9 million due to impairment of a facility in Naperville, Illinois in 2019. The decrease was by offset additional impairment charges on our facility in Naperville and impairment of certain other leased facilities recorded in fiscal 2020. 2019 Compared to 2018. In 2019, within operating expenses, we incurred $40.9 million in restructuring and other related costs, including $25.3 million of severance and related costs and $14.7 million of impaired facilities charges. These charges were primarily associated with the closure of our Berlin, Germany site, the reduction of headcount at our Munich, Germany site and impairment of a facility in Naperville, Illinois. See Note 10, “Restructuring and Other Related Costs” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on our restructuring plans. Other Income (Expense), Net Interest income Interest expense Other gain (loss), net Total other income (expense), net December 26, 2020 Years Ended December 28, 2019 (In thousands) December 29, 2018 $ $ 118 $ (46,728) 1,121 (45,489) $ 1,139 $ (31,657) (2,907) (33,425) $ 2,428 (22,049) (9,650) (29,271) 2020 Compared to 2019. Interest income decreased by $1.0 million in 2020 compared to 2019, primarily due to the liquidation of investments in 2019. Interest expense increased by $15.1 million, primarily due to amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs of $6.3 million and contractual interest of $4.0 million on the new convertible debt issued in March 2020, $1.9 million increase in amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs on the 2024 Notes (as described below), a $0.9 million increase in interest on a financing assistance arrangement obtained in May 2019, and a $3.7 million increase in interest and other related charges related to the Credit Facility (as described and defined below) obtained in August 2019, and as amended. This increase was offset by a $1.4 million of interest credit from a supplier and reduction in miscellaneous interest charges of $0.3 million. The change in other gain (loss), net, in 2020 from 2019 was $4.0 million due to a decrease in foreign exchange losses, primarily driven by the favorable foreign currency exchange rate changes. 2019 Compared to 2018. Interest income decreased $1.3 million in 2019 from 2018, primarily due to a lower average investment balance during the year. Interest expense for 2019 increased by $9.6 million due to $18.6 million of additional interest and amortization related to the 2024 Notes issued in September 2018, $0.3 million of interest on cash collateral obtained in March 2019, $0.5 million of interest on a financing assistance arrangement obtained in May 2019, $1.1 million of interest and other related charges related to the Credit Facility (as defined under “Liquidity and Capital Resources-Liquidity” below) obtained in August 2019, and $1.7 million of other interest charges. The increase to interest expense was offset by a reduction of $6.5 million related to financing lease obligations, which we assumed in connection with the Acquisition and were reclassified in 2019 54 on adoption of the new leasing standard, and $6.2 million interest on 2018 Notes that matured in 2018. Other gain (loss), net, primarily consisted of a $3.7 million loss primarily related to foreign exchange related transactions and a $1.1 million gain on the sale of non-marketable equity investments. Provision for/(Benefit From) Income Taxes We recognized an income tax expense of $6.0 million on a loss before income taxes of $200.7 million, $3.0 million on a loss before income taxes of $383.7 million, and an income tax benefit of $0.7 million on a loss before income taxes of $215.0 million in 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The resulting effective tax rates were (3.0)%, (0.8%) and 0.3% for 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The 2020 and 2019 effective tax rates differ from the expected statutory rate of 21% based on our ability to benefit from our U.S. loss carryforwards, offset by state income taxes, non-deductible stock-based compensation expenses and foreign taxes provided on foreign subsidiary earnings. The increase in 2020 income tax provision compared to 2019 is due to additional foreign earnings. Because of our U.S. operating loss in 2020, significant loss carryforward position, and corresponding valuation allowance in all years, other than separate filing state taxes and minimum taxes, we have not been subject to federal or state tax on our U.S. income because of the availability of loss carryforwards. If these losses and other tax attributes become fully utilized, our taxes will increase significantly to a more normalized, expected rate on U.S. earnings. The release of transfer pricing reserves in the future will have a beneficial impact to tax expense, but the timing of the impact depends on factors such as expiration of the statute of limitations or settlements with tax authorities. No significant releases are expected in the near future based on information available at this time. In determining future taxable income, we make assumptions to forecast federal, state and international operating income, the reversal of temporary differences, and the implementation of any feasible and prudent tax planning strategies. The assumptions require significant judgment regarding the forecasts of future taxable income, and are consistent with our income forecasts used to manage our business.

Inventory levels decreased by $71.4 million due to management efforts to reduce inventory. Prepaid and other assets increased by $36.1 million primarily due to timing of value-added tax and income tax payments and increase in customer contract assets. Accounts payable decreased by $93.4 million primarily due to more timely payments to suppliers. Accrued liabilities and other expenses decreased by $107.7 million primarily due to the payment of the fiscal 2019 corporate bonus, restructuring liabilities, tax liabilities, purchases of shares of our common stock under our 2007 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) in 2020 and no accrual for fiscal 2020 corporate bonus. Deferred revenue increased by $21.9 million due to higher maintenance renewals during the period attributable to expanding our installed base. Maintenance contracts are typically contracted on an annual or multi-year basis. Net loss for 2019 was $386.6 million, which included non-cash charges of $227.5 million, compared to a net loss for 2018 of $214.3 million, which included non-cash charges of $172.4 million. Net cash used in working capital was $8.3 million for 2019. Accounts receivables increased by $35.4 million attributable to higher revenue levels during 2019 and the timing of invoicing and collections. Inventory levels increased by $42.8 million to address strong customer demand for our ICE4 products, and additional inventory to support our manufacturing transition and integration efforts. Prepaid and other assets increased by $93.6 million primarily due to timing of tax payments, and increase in customer contract assets.

Net cash used in working capital was $57.2 million for 2018. Accounts receivables increased by $21.1 million attributable to higher revenue levels during 2018 and timing of invoicing and collections. Inventory levels increased by $8.6 million to address strong customer demand for our next-generation ICE4 products, while inventory levels of our prior generation products decreased. Accounts payable decreased by $0.5 million primarily due to the timing of payments and inventory purchases. Accrued liabilities and other expenses decreased by $21.5 million primarily due to reduced levels of compensation-related accruals. Additionally, this decrease was attributable to the reduction of customer right of returns, net of an increase in customer prepayments due to our adoption of Topic 606. Deferred revenue increased by $8.0 million due to maintenance renewals on our growing installed base, which are typically contracted on an annual or multi-year basis, net of adjustments related to our adoption of Topic 606. Investing Activities Net cash used in investing activities for 2020 was $39.0 million for the purchase of property and equipment. Net cash used in investing activities for 2019 was $12.6 million. Investing activities during 2019 included the net escrow payment of $10.0 million in connection with the Acquisition, and net proceeds of $26.6 million associated with sales, maturities and purchases of investments during the year. In addition, we spent $30.2 million on capital expenditures and received additional proceeds on the sale of our non-marketable equity investments of $1.0 million. Net cash provided by investing activities for 2018 was $12.6 million. Investing activities during 2018 included the net payment of $102.9 million in connection with the Acquisition, and net proceeds of $152.2 million associated with sales, maturities and purchases of investments during the year. In addition, we spent $37.7 million on capital expenditures and received additional proceeds on the sale of our non-marketable equity investments of $1.1 million. Financing Activities Net cash provided by financing activities was $334.2 million for 2020. Financing activities in 2020 included net proceeds of $92.9 million from our common stock "at-the-market" offering program (net of commissions and other charges), $194.5 million from issuance of the 2027 Notes and $55.0 million from the Credit Facility (as described below). Payments during this period included $8.0 million under the Credit Facility, $5.3 million under the financing assistance arrangement, $2.5 million in debt issuance cost, $1.6 million for 56 finance lease obligations and $5.7 million for term license purchase. The period also included net proceeds from the issuance of shares under our ESPP and the exercise of stock options. These proceeds were offset by the minimum tax withholdings paid on behalf of certain employees for net share settlements of restricted stock units (“RSUs”). Net cash provided by financing activities was $71.9 million for 2019. Financing activities in 2019 included proceeds of $8.6 million from issuance of debt associated with mortgaging one of our facilities, $48.1 million from a new revolving line of credit obtained in August 2019 and subsequently amended in December 2019 (as described under “Liquidity and Capital Resources-Liquidity” below) and $24.3 million under a financing assistance arrangement with third-party contract manufacturer. Financing activities during 2019 also included $20.0 million for the repayment of the revolving line of credit. The period also included net proceeds from the issuance of shares under our ESPP and the exercise of stock options. These proceeds were offset by the minimum tax withholdings paid on behalf of certain employees for net share settlements of RSUs. Net cash provided by financing activities was $207.9 million for 2018. Financing activities in 2018 included proceeds from the issuance of the 2024 Notes of $391.4 million, offset by the payment for capped call transactions related to the 2024 Notes of $48.9 million. Financing activities during 2018 also included $150.0 million for the repayment of the 2018 Notes, which matured on June 1, 2018. Additionally, we made principal payments on capital lease obligations of $1.2 million during the period. The period also included net proceeds from the issuance of shares under the ESPP and the exercise of stock options. These proceeds were offset by the minimum tax withholdings paid on behalf of certain employees for net share settlements of restricted stock units RSUs. Liquidity We believe that our current cash, along with the Credit Facility (as defined below) will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures, payments under the financing assistance arrangement with the third-party contract manufacturer, and the interest payments on the Notes and the Credit Facility for at least 12 months. While we believe we have enough cash to operate our business for the next 12 months, if the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to our business and financial position is more extensive than expected and the existing sources of cash are insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements, we may require additional capital from equity or debt financings to fund our operations, to respond to competitive pressures or strategic opportunities, or otherwise. In addition, we are continuously evaluating alternatives for efficiently funding our capital expenditures and ongoing operations. We may, from time to time engage in a variety of financing transactions for such purposes. We may not be able to secure timely additional financing on favorable terms, or at all. The terms of any additional financings may place limits on our financial and operating flexibility. If we raise additional funds through further issuances of equity or equity-linked securities, our existing stockholders could suffer dilution in their percentage ownership of us, and any new securities we issue could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of holders of our common stock. On August 12, 2020, we entered into the Sales Agreement with Jefferies LLC ("Jefferies") under which the Company issued and sold through Jefferies, acting as agent and/or principal, shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of $96.3 million. During the year ended December 26, 2020, we issued and sold 12,000,000 shares of our common stock under the Sales Agreement, for net proceeds of approximately $93.4 million, after paying Jefferies a sales commission of approximately $2.9 million related to those shares. We intend to use the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, including working capital and capital expenditures. On March 9, 2020, we issued the 2027 Notes, which will mature on March 1, 2027, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing on September 1, 2020. The net proceeds from the 2027 Notes issuance were approximately $194.5 million and we intend to use the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, including working capital to fund growth and potential strategic projects. Upon conversion, it is our intention to pay cash equal to the lesser of the aggregate principal amount or the conversion value of the 2027 Notes. For any remaining conversion obligation, we intend to pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of our common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our election. As of December 26, 2020, long-term debt, net, included $131.8 million outstanding for the 2027 Notes, which represents the liability component of the $200.0 million principal balance, net of $68.2 million of unamortized debt discount and debt issuance costs. The debt discount and debt issuance costs are currently being amortized over the remaining term until maturity of the 2027 Notes on March 1, 2027. To the extent that 57 the holders of the 2027 Notes request conversion during an early conversion window, we may require funds for repayment of such 2027 Notes prior to their maturity date. As of December 26, 2020, contractual obligations related to the 2027 Notes are payments of $5.0 million due each year from 2021 through 2026 and $202.5 million due in 2027. These amounts represent principal and interest cash payments over the term of the 2027 Notes. Any future redemption or conversion of the Notes could impact the amount or timing of our cash payments. For more information regarding the 2027 Notes, see Note 12, “Debt” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. On August 1, 2019, we entered into a Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with Wells Fargo Bank. The Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility of up to $100 million (the "Credit Facility"), which we may draw upon from time to time. The Credit agreement included an option to increase the total commitments under the Credit Facility by up to an additional $50 million, subject to certain conditions. The Credit Agreement provides for a $50 million letter of credit sub-facility and a $10 million swing loan sub-facility. On December 23, 2019, we exercised our option to increase the total commitments under the Credit Facility and entered into an Increase Joinder and Amendment Number One to Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”), with BMO Harris Bank N.A. and Wells Fargo Bank, as administrative agent. The amendment increased the total commitments under the Credit Facility to $150 million. The proceeds of the loans under the Credit Agreement, as amended by the Amendment (the “Amended Credit Agreement”) may be used to pay the fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Amended Credit Agreement and for working capital and general corporate purposes. The Credit Facility matures, and all outstanding loans become due and payable, on March 5, 2024. Availability under the Credit Facility is based upon periodic borrowing base certifications valuing certain inventory and accounts receivable, as reduced by certain reserves. The Credit Facility is secured by first-priority security interest (subject to certain exceptions) in inventory, certain related assets, specified deposit accounts, and certain other accounts in certain domestic subsidiaries. Loans under the Amended Credit Agreement bear interest, at our option, at either a rate based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) for the applicable interest period or a base rate, in each case plus a margin. The margin ranges from 2.00% to 2.50% for LIBOR rate loans and 1.00% to 1.50% for base rate loans, depending on the utilization of the Credit Facility. The fee payable on the unused portion of the Credit Facility ranges from 0.375% to 0.625% per annum, also based on the current utilization of the Credit Facility. Letters of credit issued pursuant to the Credit Facility will accrue a fee at a per annum rate equal to the applicable LIBOR rate margin times the average amount of the letter of credit usage during the immediately preceding quarter in addition to the fronting fees, commissions and other fees. As of December 26, 2020, we had outstanding borrowings of $77 million due in March 2024 and related interest due monthly. The outstanding balance was repaid in full on January 7, 2021. For more information regarding the Credit Facility, see Note 13, “Debt” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. In September 2018, we issued the 2024 Notes, which will mature on September 1, 2024, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, which commenced on March 1, 2019. The net proceeds from the 2024 Notes issuance were approximately $391.4 million, of which approximately $48.9 million was used to pay the cost of the capped call transactions. We also used a portion of the remaining net proceeds to fund the cash portion of the purchase price of the Acquisition, including fees and expenses relating thereto, and intend to use the remaining net proceeds for general corporate purposes. Upon conversion, it is our intention to pay cash equal to the lesser of the aggregate principal amount or the conversion value of the 2024 Notes. For any remaining conversion obligation, we intend to pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of our common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our election. As of December 26, 2020, long-term debt, net, was $306.4 million, which represents the liability component of the $402.5 million principal balance, net of $96.1 million of unamortized debt discount and debt issuance costs. The debt discount and debt issuance costs are currently being amortized over the remaining term until maturity of the 2024 Notes on September 1, 2024. To the extent that the holders of the 2024 Notes request conversion during an early conversion window, we may require funds for repayment of such 2024 Notes prior to their maturity date. As of December 26, 2020, contractual obligations related to the 2024 Notes are payments of $8.6 million due each year from 2021 through 2023 and $411.1 million due in 2024. These amounts represent 58 principal and interest cash payments over the term of the 2024 Notes. Any future redemption or conversion of the Notes could impact the amount or timing of our cash payments. For more information regarding the 2024 Notes, see Note 13, “Debt” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. As of December 26, 2020, we had $298.0 million of cash including $87.4 million of cash held by our foreign subsidiaries. Our policy with respect to undistributed foreign subsidiaries' earnings is to consider those earnings to be indefinitely reinvested. As a result of the enactment in the United States of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “2017 Tax Act”), if and when funds are actually distributed in the form of dividends or otherwise, we expect minimal tax consequences, except for foreign withholding taxes, which would be applicable in some jurisdictions.

These leases have varying terms that range from one to 11 years, and contain leasehold improvement incentives, rent holidays and escalation clauses. In addition, some of these leases have renewal options for up to six years. We also have contractual commitments to remove leasehold improvements and return certain properties to a specified condition when the leases terminate. At the inception of a lease with such conditions, we record an asset retirement obligation liability and a corresponding capital asset in an amount equal to the estimated fair value of the obligation. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or estimated useful life of the asset. An assumption of lease renewal where a renewal option exists is used only when the renewal has been determined to be reasonably assured. The estimated useful life of leasehold improvements is one to 11 years. See Note 14, "Commitments and Contingencies" to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information. (2) We have two finance leases for manufacturing and other equipment. The financing lease assets will continue to be amortized and payments due will be made over the lease terms, which range from 3 to 5 years. See Note 9, "Balance Sheet Details" to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information. (3) We have service agreements with our major production suppliers under which we are committed to purchase certain parts. (4) For additional information regarding our asset-based revolving credit facility and 2027 and 2024 Notes, see Note 13, “Debt” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. (5) Tax liabilities of $20.6 million related to uncertain tax positions are not included in the table because we cannot reliably estimate the timing and amount of future payments, if any. (6) In 2021, we expect to make contributions of $5.1 million to cover benefit payments to plan participants. Expected future payments to our pension and post-employment plan are excluded from the contractual obligation table because they do not represent contractual cash outflow as they are dependent on various factors. See Note 19, "Employee Benefit and Pension Plans" to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information. 59 We had $28.9 million of standby letters of credit, bank guarantees and surety bonds outstanding as of December 26, 2020. These consisted of $19.5 million related to customer performance guarantees, $0.3 million of value-added tax and customs' licenses, $4.0 million related to property leases, $4.4 million related to Coriant pre-acquisition restructuring plans, $0.6 million related to credit cards and $0.1 million for other liabilities. Of the $19.5 million related to customer performance guarantees, approximately $2.8 million was used to secure Surety Bonds in the aggregate of $5.5 million. Of the aforementioned standby letters of credit and bank guarantees outstanding, $11.5 million was backed by cash collateral from a third-party institution, and the Company accrues 2.25% annual fee and 0.13% annual fronting fee on the average LOC balances outstanding on the cash collateral. We had $27.9 million of standby letters of credit and bank guarantees outstanding as of December 28, 2019. These consisted of $14.2 million related to customer performance guarantees, $5.9 million related to property leases, $6.8 million related to Coriant pre-acquisition restructuring plans, $0.4 million of value-added tax and customs' licenses, $0.5 million related to credit cards and $0.1 million for other liabilities. Of the aforementioned standby letters of credit and bank guarantees outstanding, $4.1 million was backed by cash collateral from a third-party institution, and the Company accrues 2.25% annual fee and 0.13% annual fronting fee on the average LOC balances outstanding on the cash collateral. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements As of December 26, 2020, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These accounting principles require us to make certain estimates, assumptions and judgments that can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the periods presented. See Note 2, “Significant Accounting Policies” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which is included in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, which describes our significant accounting policies and methods used in preparation of our consolidated financial statements. Management believes that the estimates, assumptions and judgments upon which they rely are reasonable based upon information available to them at the time that these estimates and judgments are made. To the extent there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our consolidated financial statements will be affected. We believe our critical accounting policies and estimates are those related to revenue recognition, stock-based compensation, employee benefit and pension plans, accounting for income taxes, inventory valuation, accrued warranty, business combination, amortization of intangible assets, and impairment of intangibles and goodwill. Management considers these policies critical because they are both important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations, and they require management to make judgments and estimates about inherently uncertain matters. Revenue Recognition We recognize revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. We determine revenue recognition by applying the following five-step approach: • • • • • identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer; identification of the performance obligations in the contract; determination of the transaction price; allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation. 60 Many of our product sales are sold in combination with installation and deployment services along with initial hardware and software support. Our product sales are also sold at times with spares management, on-site hardware replacement services, network operations management, software subscription services, extended hardware warranty and training. Initial software and hardware support services are generally delivered over a one-year period in connection with the initial purchase. Software warranty provides customers with maintenance releases during the warranty support period and hardware warranty provides replacement or repair of equipment that fails to perform in line with specifications. Software subscription services include software warranty and additionally provides customers with rights to receive unspecified software product upgrades released during the support period. Spares management and on-site hardware replacement services include the replacement of defective units at customer sites in accordance with specified service level agreements. Network operations management includes the day-to-day operation of a customer's network. These services are generally delivered on an annual basis. We evaluate each promised good and service in a contract to determine whether it represents a distinct performance obligation or should be accounted for as a combined performance obligation. Services revenue includes software subscription services, installation and deployment services, spares management, on-site hardware replacement services, network operations management, extended hardware warranty and training. Revenue from software subscription services, spares management, on-site hardware replacement services, network operations management and extended hardware warranty contracts is deferred and is recognized ratably over the contractual support period, which is generally one year, as services are provided over the course of the entire period. Revenue related to training and installation and deployment services is recognized upon completion of the services. Contracts and customer purchase orders are generally used to determine the existence of an arrangement. In addition, shipping documents and customer acceptances, when applicable, are used to verify delivery and transfer of title. We typically satisfy our performance obligations upon shipment or delivery of product depending on the contractual terms. Payment terms to customers generally range from net 30 to 120 days from invoice, which are considered to be standard payment terms. We assess our ability to collect from our customers based primarily on the creditworthiness and past payment history of the customer. Customer product returns are generally approved on a case by case basis. Specific reserve provisions are made based upon a specific review of all the approved product returns where the customer has yet to return the products to generate the related sales return credit at the end of a period. Estimated sales returns are recorded as a reduction to revenue. For sales to resellers, the same revenue recognition criteria apply. It is our practice to identify an end- user prior to shipment to a reseller. We do not offer rights of return or price protection to our resellers. We report revenue net of any required taxes collected from customers and remitted to government authorities, with the collected taxes recorded as current liabilities until remitted to the relevant government authority. Customer Purchase Commitments We sell software licenses that provide customers the ability to purchase incremental bandwidth capacity on an already-deployed piece of hardware. Instant Bandwidth-enabled systems generally include a specific initial capacity and incremental capacity can be added by the purchase of Instant Bandwidth licenses. Instant Bandwidth licenses are considered distinct performance obligations because customers can provision additional transmission capacity on demand without the deployment of any incremental equipment. Some contracts commit the customer to purchase incremental Instant Bandwidth licenses within a specified time frame from the initial shipment of the Instant Bandwidth-enabled hardware. The time frame varies by customer and generally ranges between 12 to 24 months. If the customer does not purchase the additional capacity within the time frame as stated in the contract, we have the right to deliver and invoice such Instant Bandwidth licenses to the customer. Future committed licenses are considered to be additional performance obligations when a minimum purchase obligation is present, as evidenced by enforceable rights and obligations. As such, we are required to estimate the variable consideration for future Instant Bandwidth licenses as part of determining the contract transaction price. 61 Contract Termination Rights The contract term is determined on the basis of the period over which the parties to the contract have present enforceable rights and obligations. Certain customer contracts include a termination for convenience clause that allows the customer to terminate services without penalty, upon advance notification. For such contracts, the service duration is limited to the non-cancelable portion of the contract. Variable Consideration The consideration associated with customer contracts is generally fixed. Variable consideration includes discounts, rebates, refunds, credits, incentives, penalties, or other similar items. The amount of consideration that can vary is not a substantial portion of total consideration. Variable consideration estimates are re-assessed at each reporting period until a final outcome is determined. The changes to the original transaction price due to a change in estimated variable consideration will be applied on a retrospective basis, with the adjustment recorded in the period in which the change occurs. Stand-alone Selling Price Stand-alone selling price is the price at which an entity would sell a good or service on a stand-alone (or separate) basis at contract inception. Under this model, the observable price of a good or service sold separately provides the best evidence of stand-alone selling price. However, in certain situations, stand-alone selling prices will not be readily observable and the entity must estimate the stand-alone selling price. When allocating on a relative stand-alone selling price basis, any discount provided in the contract is generally allocated proportionately to all of the performance obligations in the contract. The majority of products and services offered by us have readily observable selling prices. For products and services that do not, we generally estimate stand-alone selling price using the market assessment approach based on expected selling price and adjust those prices as necessary to reflect our costs and margins. As part of our stand-alone selling price policy, we review product pricing on a periodic basis to identify any significant changes and revise our expected stand-alone selling price assumptions as appropriate. Capitalization of Costs to Obtain a Contract We have assessed the treatment of costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with a customer. Sales commissions have historically been expensed as incurred. Under Topic 606, we capitalize sales commissions related to multi-year service contracts, which are paid for upfront and amortize the asset over the period of benefit, which is the service period. Sales commissions paid on service contract renewals, are commensurate with the sales commissions paid on the initial contracts. Transaction Price Allocated to the Remaining Performance Obligation Our remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied or partially satisfied, as of period end, consisting of deferred revenue and backlog. Our backlog represents purchase orders received from customers for future product shipments and services that are unsatisfied or partially satisfied as of period end. Our backlog is subject to future events that could cause the amount or timing of the related revenue to change, and, in certain cases, may be canceled without penalty. Orders in backlog may be fulfilled several quarters following receipt or may relate to multi-year support service obligations. Stock-Based Compensation Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period (generally the vesting period) under the straight-line amortization method. We account for forfeitures as they occur. We estimate the fair value of the rights to acquire stock under the ESPP using the Black-Scholes option pricing formula. The ESPP provides for consecutive six-month offering periods and we use our own historical volatility data in the valuation of shares that are purchased under the ESPP. We account for the fair value of RSUs using the closing market price of our common stock on the date of grant. For new-hire grants, RSUs typically vest ratably on an annual basis over four years. For annual refresh grants, RSUs typically vest ratably on an annual basis over two, three or four years. 62 We granted performance shares (“PSUs”) to our executive officers and senior management in 2017 and 2018. The PSUs granted during 2017 and 2018 to our executive officers and senior management are based on total stockholder return (“TSR”) of our common stock price relative to the TSR of the individual companies listed in the S&P North American Technology Multimedia Networking Index (SPGIIPTR) (the “S&P Networking Index”) over the span of one year, two years and three years. The number of shares to be issued upon vesting of these PSUs range from zero to two times the target number of PSUs granted depending on our performance against the individual companies listed in the SPGIIPTR. This performance metric is classified as a market condition. PSUs granted to our executive officers and senior management during 2019 and 2020 are based on performance criteria related to a specific financial target over the span of a three-year performance period. These PSUs may become eligible for vesting to begin before the end of the three year performance period, if the applicable financial target is met. The number of shares to be issued upon vesting of these PSUs is capped at the target number of PSUs granted. We assess the achievement status of these PSUs on a quarterly basis and record the related stock-based compensation expenses based on the estimated achievement payout. We use a Monte Carlo simulation model to determine the fair value of PSUs with market conditions. The Monte Carlo simulation model is based on a discounted cash flow approach, with the simulation of a large number of possible stock price outcomes for our stock and the target composite index. The use of the Monte Carlo simulation model requires the input of a number of assumptions including expected volatility of our stock price, expected volatility of a target composite index, correlation between changes in our stock price and changes in the target composite index, risk-free interest rate, and expected dividends as applicable. Expected volatility of our stock is based on the weighted-average historical volatility of our stock. Expected volatility of the target composite index is based on the historical and implied data. Correlation is based on the historical relationship between our stock price and the target composite index average. The risk-free interest rate is based upon the treasury zero-coupon yield appropriate for the term of the PSU as of the grant date. Our expected dividend yield is zero as we do not expect to pay dividends in the future. The expected dividend yield for the target composite index is the annual dividend yield expressed as a percentage of the composite average of the target composite index on the grant date. In addition, we have granted other PSUs to certain employees that only vest upon the achievement of specific operational performance criteria. We assess the achievement status of these PSUs on a quarterly basis and record the related stock-based compensation expenses based on the estimated achievement payout. Employee Benefit and Pension Plans We operate a number of post-employment plans in Germany, as well as smaller post-employment plans in other countries, including both defined contribution and defined benefit plans. Benefit cost obligations pertaining to these plans are based on assumptions for the discount rate, expected return on plan assets, mortality rates, expected salary increases, health care cost trend rates and attrition rates. The discount rate assumption is based on current investment yields of high-quality fixed-income securities with maturities similar to the expected benefits payment period. Mortality rates help predict the expected life of plan participants. The expected increase in the compensation levels assumption reflects our actual experience and future expectations. The expected long-term return on plan assets is determined based on asset allocations, historical portfolio results, historical asset correlations and management’s expected returns for each asset class. We evaluate our expected return assumptions annually including reviewing current capital market assumptions to assess the reasonableness of the expected long-term return on plan assets. We update the expected long-term return on assets when we observe a sufficient level of evidence that would suggest the long-term expected return has changed. Accounting for Income Taxes As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to estimate our taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. We estimate actual current tax expense together with assessing temporary differences resulting from different treatment of items, such as accruals and allowances not currently deductible for tax purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included in our consolidated balance sheets. In general, deferred tax assets represent future tax benefits to be received when certain expenses previously recognized in our consolidated statements of operations become deductible expenses under applicable income tax laws or loss, or credit carryforwards are utilized. Accordingly, realization of our deferred tax assets is dependent on future taxable income within the respective jurisdictions against which these deductions, losses and credits can be utilized within the applicable future periods. 63 We must assess the likelihood that some portion or all of our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income within the respective jurisdictions, and to the extent we believe that recovery does not meet the “more-likely-than-not” standard, it must establish a valuation allowance. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management judgment is required in determining its provision for income taxes, its deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance recorded against our net deferred tax assets. In evaluating the need for a full or partial valuation allowance, all positive and negative evidence must be considered, including our forecast of taxable income over the applicable carryforward periods, its current financial performance, its market environment, and other factors. Based on the available objective evidence, at December 26, 2020, management believes it is not more likely than not that the domestic net deferred tax assets will be realizable in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the domestic net deferred tax assets are subject to a full valuation allowance. To the extent that we determine that deferred tax assets are realizable on a more likely than not basis, and an adjustment is needed, that adjustment will be recorded in the period that the determination is made. Inventory Valuation Inventories consist of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods and are stated at standard cost adjusted to approximate the lower of actual cost or net realizable value. Costs are recognized utilizing the first-in, first-out method. Net realizable value is based upon an estimated selling price reduced by the estimated cost of disposal. The determination of market value involves numerous judgments including estimated average selling prices based upon recent sales volumes, industry trends, existing customer orders, current contract price, future demand and pricing and technological obsolescence of our products. Inventory that is obsolete or in excess of our forecasted demand or is anticipated to be sold at a loss is written down to its estimated net realizable value based on historical usage and expected demand. In valuing our inventory costs and deferred inventory costs, we considered whether the net realizable value of inventory delivered or expected to be delivered at less than cost, primarily comprised of common equipment, had declined. We concluded that, in the instances where the net realizable value of inventory delivered or expected to be delivered was less than cost, it was appropriate to value the inventory costs and deferred inventory costs at cost or net realizable value, whichever is lower, thereby recognizing the cost of the reduction in net realizable value of inventory in the period in which the reduction occurred or can be reasonably estimated. We have, therefore, recognized inventory write-downs as necessary in each period in order to reflect inventory at the lower of actual cost or net realizable value. We consider whether we should accrue losses on firm purchase commitments related to inventory items. Given that the net realizable value of common equipment is below contractual purchase price, we have also recorded losses on these firm purchase commitments in the period in which the commitment is made. When the inventory parts related to these firm purchase commitments are received, that inventory is recorded at the purchase price less the accrual for the loss on the purchase commitment. Accrued Warranty In our contracts with our customers, we warrant that our products will operate substantially in conformity with product specifications. Hardware warranties provide the purchaser with protection in the event that the product does not perform to product specifications. During the warranty period, the purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy in the event of such defect or failure to perform is limited to the correction of the defect or failure by repair, refurbishment or replacement, at our sole option and expense. Our hardware warranty periods generally range from one to five years from date of acceptance for hardware and our software warranty is 90 days. Upon delivery of our products, we provide for the estimated cost to repair or replace products that may be returned under warranty. The hardware warranty accrual is based on actual estimated future returns and cost of repair rates and the application of those estimated rates to our in-warranty installed base. The provision for warranty claims fluctuates depending upon the installed base of products and the failure rates and costs of repair associated with these products under warranty. Furthermore, our costs of repair vary based on repair volume and our ability to repair, rather than replace, defective units, as well as our ability to utilize used units to fulfill warranty obligations. In the event that actual product failure rates and costs to repair differ from our estimates, revisions to the warranty provision are required. In addition, from time to time, specific hardware warranty accruals may be made if unforeseen technical problems arise with specific products. We regularly assess the adequacy of our recorded warranty liabilities and adjust the amounts as necessary. 64 Business Combination Accounting for acquisitions requires management to estimate the fair value of the assets and liabilities assumed, which requires management to make significant estimates, judgments, and assumptions that could materially affect the timing or amounts recognized in our financial statements. These assumptions and estimates include our use of the asset and the appropriate discount rates. Our significant estimates can include, but are not limited to, the future cash flows, the appropriate weighted cost of capital, and discount rates, as well as the estimated useful life of intangible assets, deferred tax assets and liabilities, uncertain tax positions, and tax- related valuation allowance, which are initially estimated as of the acquisition date. While we use our best estimates and assumptions to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, the estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. In addition, unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that may affect the accuracy or validity of such estimates. As a result, during the measurement period, which may be up to one year following the acquisition date, if new information is obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date, we may record adjustments to the fair value of these assets and liabilities, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Amortization of Intangible Assets Intangible assets with finite lives are carried at cost, less accumulated amortization. Amortization is computed over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. In-process research and development represents the fair value of incomplete research and development projects that have not reached technological feasibility as of the date of acquisition. Initially, these assets are not subject to amortization. Once projects have been completed they are transferred to developed technology, which are subject to amortization, while assets related to projects that have been abandoned are impaired and expensed to research and development. Impairment of Intangible Assets and Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an acquired business over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. We test for impairment of goodwill on an annual basis in the fourth quarter and at any other time when events occur or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of goodwill may not be recoverable. We have the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment test. If we determine that as a result of the qualitative assessment that it is more likely than not (i.e., greater than 50% likelihood) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the quantitative test is required or we can directly perform the quantitative analysis. We recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized does not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. We evaluate events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of purchased intangible assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances occur, we assess the recoverability of these assets by determining whether or not the carrying amount will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total of the future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of an asset, we record an impairment loss for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Foreign Currency Risk We operate in international markets, which expose us to market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and various foreign currencies, the most significant of which is the euro. Historically, the majority of our revenue contracts were denominated in U.S. dollars, with the most significant exception being in Europe, where we invoice primarily in euros and SEK. Additionally, a portion of our expenses, primarily the cost of personnel for research and development, sales and sales support to deliver technical support on our products and professional services, and the cost to manufacture, are denominated in foreign currencies, primarily the Indian rupee, the euro, the SEK and the British pound. As a result of the Acquisition, we have increased our exposure to a broader set of currencies. Revenue resulting from selling in local currencies and costs incurred in local currencies are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations that can affect our operating income. As exchange rates vary, operating income may differ from expectations. We currently enter into foreign currency exchange forward contracts to reduce the impact of currency exchange rate movements on certain transactions, but do not cover all foreign-denominated transactions and therefore do not entirely eliminate the impact of fluctuations in exchange rates that could negatively affect our results of operations and financial condition. We enter into foreign currency exchange forward contracts to reduce the impact of foreign currency fluctuations on certain non-functional currency denominated account balances primarily in euros and British pounds. As a result, we do not expect a significant impact to our results from a change in exchange rates on foreign denominated non-functional account balances in the near-term. Gains and losses on these contracts are intended to offset the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on the underlying foreign currency denominated non-functional currency account balances. Accordingly, the effect of an immediate 10% adverse change in foreign exchange rates on these transactions during 2020 would not be material to our results of operations. During 2020, we also entered into foreign currency exchange contracts to reduce the volatility of cash flows primarily related to forecasted revenues and expenses denominated in euros. The contracts are generally settled for U.S. dollars, euros and British pounds at maturity under an average rate method agreed to at inception of the contracts. The gains and losses on these foreign currency derivatives are recorded to the consolidated statement of operations line item, in the current period, to which the item that is being economically hedged is recorded. The effect of an immediate 10% adverse change in foreign exchange rates on these transactions during 2020 would not be material to our results of operations. Interest Rate Sensitivity We had cash and restricted cash totaling $315.4 million and $132.8 million as of December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019, respectively. The unrestricted cash is held for working capital purposes. We do not enter into investments for speculative purposes. We are also exposed to interest rate risk in connection with our variable interest rate borrowings. The effect of an immediate 10% adverse change in interest rates would not be material to our results of operations. Market Risk and Market Interest Risk In March 2020, we issued the 2027 Notes. The 2027 Notes have a fixed annual interest rate of 2.50%, and, therefore, we do not have economic interest rate exposure on the 2027 Notes. However, the fair values of the 2027 Notes is subject to interest rate risk, credit risk and market risk and other factors due to the convertible feature. The fair value of the 2027 Notes will generally increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise. In addition, the fair value of the 2027 Notes will generally increase as our common stock price increases and will generally decrease as our common stock price declines in value. The interest and market value changes affect the fair value of the 2027 Notes but do not impact our financial position, cash flows or results of operations due to the fixed nature of the debt obligation. Additionally, we do not carry the 2027 Notes at fair value. We present the fair value of the 2027 Notes for required disclosure purposes only. As of December 26, 2020, the fair value of the 2027 Notes was $319.3 million. The fair value was determined based on the quoted bid price of the 2027 Notes in an over-the-counter market on December 24, 2020. The 2027 Notes are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. 66 Holders may convert the 2024 Notes prior to maturity upon the occurrence of certain circumstances. Upon conversion, we will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our election. If our common stock price is above the initial conversion price of $9.87 upon conversion or at maturity, the amount of cash or shares of common stock required to pay the conversion premium is not fixed and would increase if our common stock price increases. As of December 26, 2020, the fair value of the 2024 Notes was $515.2 million. The fair value was determined based on the quoted bid price of the 2024 Notes in an over-the-counter market on December 24, 2020. The 2024 Notes are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the 2024 Notes is subject to interest rate risk, credit risk and market risk and other factors due to the convertible feature. The fair value of the 2024 Notes will generally increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise. In addition, the fair value of the 2024 Notes will generally increase as our common stock price increases and will generally decrease as our common stock price declines in value. The interest and market value changes affect the fair value of the 2024 Notes but do not impact our financial position, cash flows or results of operations due to the fixed nature of the debt obligation. Additionally, we do not carry the 2024 Notes at fair value. We present the fair value of the 2024 Notes for required disclosure purposes only. See Note 13, “Debt” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information. 67 ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA INDEX TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Reports of Ernst & Young LLP, Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm Consolidated Balance Sheets Consolidated Statements of Operations Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Page 69 72 73 74 75 76 78 68 Report of Ernst & Young LLP, Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Infinera Corporation Opinion on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Infinera Corporation (the Company) as of December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 26, 2020, and the related notes and the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a) (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 26, 2020, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 26, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) and our report dated March 3, 2021 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon. Basis for Opinion These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matter The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates. Inventory Valuation Description of the Matter At December 26, 2020, the Company’s inventory balance was $269.3 million and represented 15.5% of total assets. As discussed in Note 2 of the consolidated financial statements, the Company assesses the valuation of inventories, including raw materials, work-in-process, and finished goods, in each reporting period. Obsolete inventory or inventory in excess of management’s forecasted demand is written down to its estimated net realizable value if less than cost. Auditing management’s estimates for excess and obsolete inventory involved subjective auditor judgement because the estimates rely on a number of factors that are affected by market and economic conditions outside the Company’s control. In particular, the excess and obsolete inventory calculations are sensitive to significant assumptions, including forecasted demand for the Company’s products. 69 How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design, and tested the operating effectiveness of internal controls over the Company's excess and obsolete inventory reserve process. This included controls over management's assessment of the forecasted demand for their products and the completeness and accuracy of the data underlying the excess and obsolete inventory valuation. Our audit procedures included, among others, evaluating the significant assumptions including forecasted demand and the accuracy and completeness of the underlying data management used to value excess and obsolete inventory. We compared the cost of on-hand inventories to customer demand forecasts and historical sales and evaluated adjustments to sales forecasts for specific product considerations, such as technological changes or alternative uses. We also assessed the historical accuracy of management's estimates and performed sensitivity analyses over the significant assumptions to evaluate the changes in the excess and obsolete inventory estimates that would result from changes in the underlying assumptions. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2001. San Jose, California March 3, 2021 70 Report of Ernst & Young LLP, Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Infinera Corporation Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting We have audited Infinera Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 26, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria). In our opinion, Infinera Corporation (the Company) maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 26, 2020, based on the COSO criteria. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets as of December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 26, 2020, and the related notes and the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a) (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”) and our report dated March 3, 2021 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon. Basis for Opinion The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Organization and Basis of Presentation Infinera Corporation (“Infinera” or the “Company”), headquartered in San Jose, California, was founded in December 2000 and incorporated in the State of Delaware. Infinera is a global supplier of networking solutions comprised of networking equipment, software and services. The Company's portfolio of solutions includes optical transport platforms, converged packet-optical transport platforms, optical line systems and disaggregated router platforms, and a suite of networking and automation software offerings. During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of all the outstanding limited liability company interests (the “Units”) of Telecom Holding Parent LLC (“Coriant”), a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Coriant Investor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Seller”), pursuant to the Unit Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) by and among the Company, Seller and Oaktree Optical Holdings, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Lender”) (the “Acquisition”). The Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination, and accordingly, the Company's consolidated financial statements include the operating results of Coriant from October 1, 2018, the date the acquisition closed (the “Acquisition Date”). The Company operates and reports financial results on a fiscal year of 52 or 53 weeks ending on the last Saturday of December in each year. Accordingly, fiscal years 2020, 2019 and 2018 were 52-week years that ended on December 26, 2020, December 28, 2019 and December 29, 2018 respectively. The next 53-week year will end on December 31, 2022. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's annual results. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period balances in order to conform to the current period presentation of accrued expenses and other current liabilities in Note 9, “Balance Sheet Details” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. These reclassifications were not material and had no impact on previously reported net cash used in operating activities in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for any periods presented or to the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for the periods ended December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts for the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates in the Company which the Company has a controlling financial interest or is the primary beneficiary. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated. 2. Significant Accounting Policies Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates, assumptions and judgments that can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Such management estimates include, but not limited to the revenue recognition, stock-based compensation, employee benefit and pension plans, inventory valuation, accrued warranty, operating liabilities, business combinations, fair value measurement of investments and accounting for income taxes. Other estimates, assumptions and judgments made by management include restructuring and other related costs, manufacturing partner and supplier liabilities, allowances for sales returns, allowances for doubtful accounts, pension benefit cost and obligations, useful life of acquired intangibles and recoverability of property, plant and equipment, impairment loss related to facility abandonment, fair value measurement of the debt component of the convertible senior notes, and loss contingencies. The Company bases its assumptions on historical experience and also on assumptions that it believes are reasonable. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Further, the Company expects uncertainties around its key accounting estimates to continue to evolve depending on the duration and degree of impact associated with the recent outbreak of a novel strain of the coronavirus (“COVID- 78 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) 19”). These estimates may change as new events occur and additional information emerges, and such changes are recognized or disclosed in the Company's consolidated financial statements. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to its customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The Company determines revenue recognition by applying the following five-step approach: • • • • • identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer; identification of the performance obligations in the contract; determination of the transaction price; allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation. Many of the Company's product sales are sold in combination with installation and deployment services along with initial hardware and software support. The Company's product sales are also sold at times with spares management, on-site hardware replacement services, network operations management, software subscription services, extended hardware warranty and training. Initial software and hardware support services are generally delivered over a one-year period in connection with the initial purchase. Software warranty provides customers with maintenance releases during the warranty support period and hardware warranty provides replacement or repair of equipment that fails to perform in line with specifications. Software subscription services include software warranty and additionally provides customers with rights to receive unspecified software product upgrades released during the support period. Spares management and on-site hardware replacement services include the replacement of defective units at customer sites in accordance with specified service level agreements. Network operations management includes the day-to-day operation of a customer's network. These services are generally delivered on an annual basis. The Company evaluates each promised good and service in a contract to determine whether it represents a distinct performance obligation or should be accounted for as a combined performance obligation. Services revenue includes software subscription services, installation and deployment services, spares management, on-site hardware replacement services, network operations management, extended hardware warranty and training. Revenue from software subscription services, spares management, on-site hardware replacement services, network operations management and extended hardware warranty contracts is deferred and is recognized ratably over the contractual support period, which is generally one year, as services are provided over the course of the entire period. Revenue related to training and installation and deployment services is recognized upon completion of the services. Contracts and customer purchase orders are generally used to determine the existence of an arrangement. In addition, shipping documents and customer acceptances, when applicable, are used to verify delivery and transfer of title. The Company typically satisfies its performance obligations upon shipment or delivery of product depending on the contractual terms. Payment terms to customers generally range from net 30 to 120 days from invoice, which are considered to be standard payment terms. The Company assesses its ability to collect from its customers based primarily on the creditworthiness and past payment history of the customer. Customer product returns are generally approved on a case-by-case basis. Specific reserve provisions are made based upon a specific review of all the approved product returns where the customer has yet to return the products to generate the related sales return credit at the end of a period. Estimated sales returns are recorded as a reduction to revenue. For sales to resellers, the same revenue recognition criteria apply. It is the Company’s practice to identify an end-user prior to shipment to a reseller. The Company does not offer rights of return or price protection to its resellers. The Company reports revenue net of any required taxes collected from customers and remitted to government authorities, with the collected taxes recorded as current liabilities until remitted to the relevant government authority. 79 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) Customer Purchase Commitments The Company sells software licenses that provide customers the ability to purchase incremental bandwidth capacity on an already-deployed piece of hardware. Infinera Instant Bandwidth-enabled systems generally include a specific initial capacity and incremental capacity can be added by the purchase of Instant Bandwidth licenses. Instant Bandwidth licenses are considered distinct performance obligations because customers can provision additional transmission capacity on demand without the deployment of any incremental equipment. Some contracts commit the customer to purchase incremental Instant Bandwidth licenses within a specified time frame from the initial shipment of the Instant Bandwidth-enabled hardware. The time frame varies by customer and generally ranges between 12 to 24 months. If the customer does not purchase the additional capacity within the time frame as stated in the contract, the Company has the right to deliver and invoice such Instant Bandwidth licenses to the customer. Future committed licenses are considered to be additional performance obligations when a minimum purchase obligation is present, as evidenced by enforceable rights and obligations. As such, the Company is required to estimate the variable consideration for future Instant Bandwidth licenses as part of determining the contract transaction price. Contract Termination Rights The contract term is determined on the basis of the period over which the parties to the contract have present enforceable rights and obligations. Certain customer contracts include a termination for convenience clause that allows the customer to terminate services without penalty, upon advance notification. For such contracts, the service duration is limited to the non-cancelable portion of the contract. Variable Consideration The consideration associated with customer contracts is generally fixed. Variable consideration includes discounts, rebates, refunds, credits, incentives, penalties, or other similar items. The amount of consideration that can vary is not a substantial portion of total consideration. Variable consideration estimates are re-assessed at each reporting period until a final outcome is determined. The changes to the original transaction price due to a change in estimated variable consideration will be applied on a retrospective basis, with the adjustment recorded in the period in which the change occurs. Stand-alone Selling Price Stand-alone selling price is the price at which an entity would sell a good or service on a stand-alone (or separate) basis at contract inception. Under this model, the observable price of a good or service sold separately provides the best evidence of stand-alone selling price. However, in certain situations, stand-alone selling prices will not be readily observable and the entity must estimate the stand-alone selling price. When allocating on a relative stand-alone selling price basis, any discount provided in the contract is generally allocated proportionately to all of the performance obligations in the contract. The majority of products and services offered by the Company have readily observable selling prices. For products and services that do not, the Company generally estimates stand-alone selling price using the market assessment approach based on expected selling price and adjust those prices as necessary to reflect the Company’s costs and margins. As part of its stand-alone selling price policy, the Company reviews product pricing on a periodic basis to identify any significant changes and revise its expected stand-alone selling price assumptions as appropriate. Shipping and Handling The Company treats shipping and handling activities as costs to fulfill the Company's promise to transfer products. Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are recorded as a reduction to cost of product. Capitalization of Costs to Obtain a Contract The Company has assessed the treatment of costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with a customer. Sales commissions have historically been expensed as incurred. Under Topic 606, the Company capitalizes sales commissions related to multi-year service contracts, which are paid for upfront, and amortizes the asset over the period of benefit, which is the service period. Sales commissions paid on service contract renewals, are commensurate with the sales commissions paid on the initial contracts. 80 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) Transaction Price Allocated to the Remaining Performance Obligation The Company’s remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied or partially satisfied as of period end, consisting of deferred revenue and backlog. The Company’s backlog represents purchase orders received from customers for future product shipments and services that are unsatisfied or partially satisfied as of period end. The Company’s backlog is subject to future events that could cause the amount or timing of the related revenue to change, and, in certain cases, may be canceled without penalty. Orders in backlog may be fulfilled several quarters following receipt or may relate to multi-year support service obligations. Stock-Based Compensation Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period (generally the vesting period) under the straight-line amortization method. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur. The Company estimates the fair value of the rights to acquire stock under its 2007 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) using the Black-Scholes option pricing formula. The ESPP provides for consecutive six-month offering periods and the Company uses its own historical volatility data in the valuation of shares that are purchased under the ESPP. The Company accounts for the fair value of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) using the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. For new-hire grants, RSUs typically vest ratably on an annual basis over four years. For annual refresh grants, RSUs typically vest ratably on an annual basis over two, three or four years. The Company granted performance shares (“PSUs”) to its executive officers and senior management in 2017 and 2018. The PSUs granted during 2017 and 2018 to the Company’s executive officers and senior management are based on the TSR of the Company’s common stock price relative to the TSR of the individual companies listed in the S&P North American Technology Multimedia Networking Index (SPGIIPTR) (the “S&P Networking Index”) over the span of one year, two years and three years. The number of shares to be issued upon vesting of these PSUs range from zero to two times the target number of PSUs granted depending on the Company’s performance against the individual companies listed in the S&P Networking Index. This performance metric is classified as a market condition. PSUs granted to the Company's executive officers and senior management during 2019 and 2020 are based on performance criteria related to a specific financial target over the span of a three-year performance period. These PSUs may become eligible for vesting to begin before the end of the three year performance period, if the applicable financial target is met. The number of shares to be issued upon vesting of these PSUs is capped at the target number of PSUs granted. The Company assesses the achievement status of these PSUs on a quarterly basis and records the related stock-based compensation expenses based on the estimated achievement payout. The Company uses a Monte Carlo simulation model to determine the fair value of PSUs with market conditions. The Monte Carlo simulation model is based on a discounted cash flow approach, with the simulation of a large number of possible stock price outcomes for the Company's stock and the target composite index. The use of the Monte Carlo simulation model requires the input of a number of assumptions including expected volatility of the Company's stock price, expected volatility of a target composite index, correlation between changes in the Company's stock price and changes in the target composite index, risk-free interest rate, and expected dividends as applicable. Expected volatility of the Company's stock is based on the weighted-average historical volatility of its stock. Expected volatility of the target composite index is based on the historical and implied data. Correlation is based on the historical relationship between the Company's stock price and the target composite index average. The risk-free interest rate is based upon the treasury zero-coupon yield appropriate for the term of the PSU as of the grant date. The expected dividend yield is zero for the Company as it does not expect to pay dividends in the future. The expected dividend yield for the target composite index is the annual dividend yield expressed as a percentage of the composite average of the target composite index on the grant date. In addition, the Company granted other PSUs to certain employees that only vest upon the achievement of specific operational performance criteria. The Company assesses the achievement status of these PSUs on a quarterly basis and records the related stock-based compensation expenses based on the estimated achievement payout. 81 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) Employee Benefit and Pension Plans The Company operates a number of post-employment plans in Germany, as well as smaller post- employment plans in other countries, including both defined contribution and defined benefit plans. Benefit cost and obligations pertaining to these plans are based on assumptions for the discount rate, expected return on plan assets, mortality rates, expected salary increases, health care cost trend rates and attrition rates. The discount rate assumption is based on current investment yields of high-quality fixed-income securities with maturities similar to the expected benefits payment period. Mortality rates help predict the expected life of plan participants. The expected increase in the compensation levels assumption reflects the Company's actual experience and future expectations. The expected long-term return on plan assets is determined based on asset allocations, historical portfolio results, historical asset correlations and management’s expected returns for each asset class. The Company evaluates its expected return assumptions annually including reviewing current capital market assumptions to assess the reasonableness of the expected long-term return on plan assets. The Company updates the expected long-term return on assets when the Company observes a sufficient level of evidence that would suggest the long-term expected return has changed. Research and Development All costs to develop the Company’s hardware products are expensed as incurred. Software development costs are capitalized beginning when a product’s technological feasibility has been established and ending when a product is available for general release to customers. Generally, the Company’s software products are released soon after technological feasibility has been established. As a result, costs subsequent to achieving technological feasibility have not been significant and all software development costs have been expensed as incurred. Advertising All advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses in 2020, 2019 and 2018 were $1.3 million, $1.5 million, and $0.9 million, respectively. Accounting for Income Taxes As part of the process of preparing the Company's consolidated financial statements, the Company is required to estimate its taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which it operates. The Company estimates actual current tax expense together with assessing temporary differences resulting from different treatment of items, such as accruals and allowances not currently deductible for tax purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included in its consolidated balance sheets. In general, deferred tax assets represent future tax benefits to be received when certain expenses previously recognized in its consolidated statements of operations become deductible expenses under applicable income tax laws or loss, or credit carryforwards are utilized. Accordingly, realization of the Company's deferred tax assets is dependent on future taxable income within the respective jurisdictions against which these deductions, losses and credits can be utilized within the applicable future periods. The Company must assess the likelihood that some portion or all of its deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income within the respective jurisdictions, and to the extent the Company believes that recovery does not meet the “more-likely-than-not” standard, it must establish a valuation allowance. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management judgment is required in determining the Company’s provision for income taxes, the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowance recorded against the Company’s net deferred tax assets. In evaluating the need for a full or partial valuation allowance, all positive and negative evidence must be considered, including the Company's forecast of taxable income over the applicable carryforward periods, its current financial performance, its market environment, and other factors. Based on the available objective evidence, at December 26, 2020, the Company believes it is not more likely than not that the domestic net deferred tax assets will be realizable in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the domestic net deferred tax assets are subject to a full valuation allowance. To the extent that the Company determines that deferred tax assets are realizable on a more likely than not basis, and an adjustment is needed, that adjustment will be recorded in the period that the determination is made. Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions The Company considers the functional currencies of its foreign subsidiaries to be the local currency. Assets and liabilities recorded in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate as of the balance sheet 82 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) date, revenue, costs and expenses are translated at average exchange rates in effect during the period. Equity transactions are translated using historical exchange rates. The effects of foreign currency translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. For all non-functional currency account balances, the re-measurement of such balances to the functional currency will result in either a foreign exchange transaction gain or loss, which is recorded to other gain (loss), net, in the same period that the re-measurement occurred. Aggregate foreign exchange transactions recorded in 2020, 2019 and 2018 were losses of $0.2 million, $3.7 million, and $2.5 million, respectively. The Company enters into foreign currency exchange forward contracts to reduce the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations on earnings from certain non-functional currency account balances denominated primarily in euros and British pounds. The Company also enters into foreign currency exchange contracts to reduce the volatility of cash flows primarily related to forecasted revenues and expenses denominated primarily in euros and British pounds. The gains and losses on these foreign currency derivatives are recorded to the consolidated statement of operations line item, in the current period, to which the item that is being economically hedged is recorded. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Short-term and Long-term Investments The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity at the date of purchase of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents and those with a maturity between 90 days and one year to be short-term investments. The Company classifies debt instruments with remaining maturities greater than one year as long- term investments, unless the Company intends to settle its holdings within one year or less and in such case it is considered to be short-term investments. The Company determines the appropriate classification of its marketable securities at the time of purchase and re-evaluates such designations as of each balance sheet date. The investments in these categories based on the original maturity at the date of purchase include U.S. Treasury Securities, U.S. Government Sponsored Enterprises, Money Market Funds, corporate debt securities, including commercial paper, corporate notes, corporate bonds, time deposits and FDIC-guaranteed certificates of deposit. The Company also maintains a portion of its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. Available-for-sale investments are stated at fair market value with unrealized gains and losses recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company evaluates its available-for-sale marketable debt securities for other-than-temporary impairments and records any credit loss portion in other income (expense), net, in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The amortized cost of debt securities is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity and for any credit losses incurred on these securities. Gains and losses are recognized when realized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations under the specific identification method. As of December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019 the Company did not have any cash equivalents and investments. Fair Value Measurement Pursuant to the accounting guidance for fair value measurements and its subsequent updates, fair value is defined as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques used by the Company are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable or market inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about market participant assumptions based on the best information available. Observable inputs are the preferred source of values. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy: 83 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) Level 1 Level 2 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 – Prices or valuations that require management inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. The Company measures its cash equivalents, foreign currency exchange forward contracts, and debt securities at fair value and classifies its securities in accordance with the fair value hierarchy on a recurring basis. As of December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019 the Company did not have any cash equivalents and investments. Foreign Currency Exchange Forward Contracts As discussed in Note 6, “Derivative Instruments" to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company mainly holds non-speculative foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge certain foreign currency exchange exposures. The Company estimates the fair values of derivatives based on quoted market prices or pricing models using current market rates. Where applicable, these models project future cash flows and discount the future amounts to a present value using market-based observable inputs including interest rate curves, credit risk, foreign exchange rates, and forward and spot prices for currencies. Pension As a result of the Acquisition, the Company acquired a number of post-employment plans in Germany, as well as a number of smaller post-employment plans in other countries, including both defined contribution and defined benefit plans. The defined benefit plans expose the Company to actuarial risks such as investment risk, interest rate risk, life expectancy risk and salary risk. The characteristics of the defined benefit plans and the risks associated with them vary depending on legal, fiscal, and economic requirements. Facilities-related Charges The Company estimates the fair value of its facilities-related charges associated with its restructuring plans, based on estimated future discounted cash flows and unobservable inputs, which included the amount and timing of estimated sublease rental receipts that the Company could reasonably obtain over the remaining lease term and the discount rate. Accounts Receivable and Allowances for Doubtful Accounts Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated credit losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments and reviewed the allowance quarterly. The Company determines expected credit losses by performing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition, establishing both a general reserve and specific reserve for customers in adverse financial condition and adjusting for its expectations of changes in conditions that may impact the collectability of outstanding receivables. The Company considers a customer's receivable balance past due when the amount is due beyond the credit terms extended, The Company considers factors such as historical experience, credit quality, age of the accounts receivable balances, and geographic or country-specific risks. Amounts are written off when receivables are determined to be uncollectible. Allowances for Sales Returns Customer product returns are approved on a case by case basis. Specific reserve provisions are made based upon a specific review of all the approved product returns where the customer has yet to return the products to generate the related sales return credit at the end of a period. Estimated sales returns are provided for as a reduction to revenue. At December 26, 2020, December 28, 2019 and December 29, 2018, revenue was reduced for estimated sales returns by $2.4 million, $3.5 million, and $4.3 million, respectively. 84 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) Concentration of Risk Financial instruments that are potentially subject to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and accounts receivable. The risk with respect to accounts receivable is mitigated by ongoing credit evaluations that the Company performs on its customers. As the Company continues to expand its sales internationally, it may experience increased levels of customer credit risk associated with those regions. Collateral is generally not required for accounts receivable but may be used in the future to mitigate credit risk associated with customers located in certain geographical regions. As of December 26, 2020, no customer accounted for over 10% of the Company's net accounts receivable balance. As of December 28, 2019, one customer accounted for over 10% of the Company's net accounts receivable balance. To date, a few of the Company’s customers have accounted for a significant portion of its revenue. One customer accounted for approximately 11%, 13% and 13% of the Company's revenue in each of 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. One other customer accounted for approximately 15% of the Company's revenue in 2018. No other customers accounted for over 10% of the Company's revenue in 2020, 2019 or 2018. The Company depends on sole source or limited source suppliers for several key components and raw materials. The Company generally purchases these sole source or limited source components and raw materials through standard purchase orders and does not have long-term contracts with many of these limited-source suppliers. While the Company seeks to maintain sufficient reserve stock of such components and raw materials, the Company’s business and results of operations could be adversely affected if any of its sole source or limited source suppliers suffer from capacity constraints, lower than expected yields, deployment delays, work stoppages or any other reduction or disruption in output. Derivative Instruments The Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in the normal course of its business. As part of its risk management strategy, the Company uses derivative instruments, specifically forward contracts, to reduce the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations on earnings. The forward contracts are with high-quality institutions and the Company monitors the creditworthiness of the counterparties consistently. The Company’s objective is to offset gains and losses resulting from these exposures with gains and losses on the derivative contracts used to hedge them, thereby reducing volatility of earnings or protecting fair values of assets. The Company does not use derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes. The Company enters into foreign currency exchange forward contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates that arise primarily from euro and British pounds. Gains and losses on these contracts are intended to offset the impact of foreign exchange rate changes on the underlying, and therefore, do not subject the Company to material balance sheet risk. The Company also enters into foreign currency exchange contracts to reduce the volatility of cash flows primarily related to forecasted revenues and expenses denominated in euros and British pounds. These contracts are generally settled for U.S. dollars, euros and British pounds at maturity. The Company has entered into factoring agreements, to sell certain receivables to unrelated third-party financial institutions. These transactions are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 860, “Transfers and Servicing” (“ASC 860”). ASC 860 and result in a reduction in accounts receivable because the agreements transfer effective control over and risk related to the receivables to the buyers. The Company's factoring agreements do not allow for recourse in the event of uncollectability, and the Company does not retain any interest in the underlying accounts receivable once sold. Inventory Valuation Inventories consist of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods and are stated at standard cost adjusted to approximate the lower of actual cost or net realizable value. Costs are recognized utilizing the first-in, first-out method. Net realizable value is based upon an estimated selling price reduced by the estimated cost of disposal. The determination of market value involves numerous judgments including estimated average selling prices based upon recent sales volumes, industry trends, existing customer orders, current contract price, future demand and pricing and technological obsolescence of the Company’s products. Inventory that is obsolete or in excess of the Company’s forecasted demand or is anticipated to be sold at a loss is written down to its estimated net realizable value based on historical usage and expected demand. In 85 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) valuing its inventory costs and deferred inventory costs, the Company considered whether the net realizable value of inventory delivered or expected to be delivered at less than cost, primarily comprised of common equipment, had declined. The Company concluded that, in the instances where the net realizable value of inventory delivered or expected to be delivered was less than cost, it was appropriate to value the inventory costs and deferred inventory costs at cost or net realizable value, whichever is lower, thereby recognizing the cost of the reduction in net realizable value of inventory in the period in which the reduction occurred or can be reasonably estimated. The Company has, therefore, recognized inventory write-downs as necessary in each period in order to reflect inventory at the lower of actual cost or net realizable value. The Company considers whether it should accrue losses on firm purchase commitments related to inventory items. Given that the net realizable value of common equipment is below contractual purchase price, the Company has also recorded losses on these firm purchase commitments in the period in which the commitment is made. When the inventory parts related to these firm purchase commitments are received, that inventory is recorded at the purchase price less the accrual for the loss on the purchase commitment. Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. This includes enterprise-level business software that the Company customizes to meet its specific operational needs and certain software licenses. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or estimated useful life of the asset. An assumption of lease renewal where a renewal option exists is used only when the renewal has been determined to be reasonably certain. Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. The estimated useful life for each asset category is as follows: Building Laboratory and manufacturing equipment Furniture and fixtures Computer hardware and software Leasehold and building improvements Estimated Useful Lives 20 years 1.5 to 10 years 3 to 10 years 1.5 to 7 years 1 to 11 years The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may not be recoverable or that the useful life is shorter than originally estimated. If impairment indicators are present and the projected future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of the assets, the carrying values are reduced to the estimated fair value. If assets are determined to be recoverable, but the useful lives are shorter than originally estimated, the carrying value of the assets is depreciated over the newly determined remaining useful lives. Accrued Warranty In the Company's contracts with its customers, the Company warrants that its products will operate substantially in conformity with product specifications. Hardware warranties provide the purchaser with protection in the event that the product does not perform to product specifications. During the warranty period, the purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy in the event of such defect or failure to perform is limited to the correction of the defect or failure by repair, refurbishment or replacement, at the Company’s sole option and expense. The Company's hardware warranty periods generally range from one to five years from date of acceptance for hardware and the Company's software warranty is 90 days. Upon delivery of the Company's products, the Company provides for the estimated cost to repair or replace products that may be returned under warranty. The hardware warranty accrual is based on actual historical returns and cost of repair experience and the application of those historical rates to the Company's in-warranty installed base. The provision for warranty claims fluctuates depending upon the installed base of products and the failure rates and costs of repair associated with these products under warranty. Furthermore, the Company's costs of repair vary based on repair volume and its ability to repair, rather than replace, defective units. In the event that actual product failure rates and costs to repair differ from the Company's estimates, revisions to the warranty provision are required. In addition, from time to time, specific hardware warranty accruals may be made if unforeseen technical problems arise with specific products. The Company regularly assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary. 86 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) Business Combination Accounting for acquisitions requires the Company's management to estimate the fair value of the assets and liabilities assumed, which requires management to make significant estimates, judgments, and assumptions that could materially affect the timing or amounts recognized in its financial statements. These assumptions and estimates include the Company’s use of the asset and the appropriate discount rates. The Company’s significant estimates can include, but are not limited to, the future cash flows, the appropriate weighted cost of capital, and discount rates, as well as the estimated useful life of intangible assets, deferred tax assets and liabilities, uncertain tax positions, and tax-related valuation allowance, which are initially estimated as of the acquisition date. While the Company uses its best estimates and assumptions to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, the estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. In addition, unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that may affect the accuracy or validity of such estimates. As a result, during the measurement period, which may be up to one year following the acquisition date, if new information is obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments to the fair value of these assets and liabilities, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Amortization of Intangible Assets Intangible assets with finite lives are carried at cost, less accumulated amortization. Amortization is computed over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. In-process research and development represent the fair value of incomplete research and development projects that have not reached technological feasibility as of the date of acquisition. Initially, these assets are not subject to amortization, but once projects have been completed, these assets are transferred to developed technology, which are subject to amortization, while assets related to projects that have been abandoned are impaired and expensed to research and development. Impairment of Intangible Assets and Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an acquired business over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company tests for impairment of goodwill on an annual basis in the fourth quarter and at any other time when events occur or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of goodwill may not be recoverable. The Company has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment test. If the Company determines that as a result of the qualitative assessment that it is more likely than not (i.e., greater than 50% likelihood) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the quantitative test is required or it can directly perform the quantitative analysis. The Company recognizes an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized does not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The Company evaluates events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of purchased intangible assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances occur, the Company assesses the recoverability of these assets by determining whether or not the carrying amount will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total of the future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of an asset, the Company records an impairment loss for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Leases Effective December 30, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“Topic 842”) utilizing the modified retrospective transition method, which requires a cumulative-effect adjustment, if any, to the opening balance of retained earnings to be recognized on the date of adoption with prior periods not restated. The Company leases facilities under non-cancelable operating lease agreements. These leases have varying terms that range from one to 11 years and contain leasehold improvement incentives, rent holidays and escalation clauses. In addition, some of these leases have renewal options for up to six years. The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right of use ("ROU") assets, accrued expenses and operating lease liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Finance leases are included in property, plant and equipment, accrued expenses and finance lease liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. 87 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. Operating lease ROU assets also include any lease payments made and exclude lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. Variable lease payments are expensed as incurred and are not included within the ROU asset and lease liability calculation. Variable lease payments primarily include reimbursements of costs incurred by lessors for common area maintenance and utilities. The Company's lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company rents or subleases certain real estate under agreements that are classified as operating leases. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company does not account for lease components (e.g., fixed payments including rent) separately from the non-lease components (e.g., common-area maintenance costs). Upon abandoning or committing to a plan to abandon a leased property in the short term before the lease term expires, the Company assesses the fair value of its remaining obligation under the lease and records an impairment of the ROU asset, if needed. The impairment loss is calculated as the present value of the amount by which the remaining lease obligation, adjusted for the effects of any one-time costs to sublease, exceeds the estimated sublease rentals that could be reasonably obtained. The estimated sublease rentals consider Company's ability and intent to sublease the space. The significant assumptions used in the Company's discounted cash flow model include the amount and timing of estimated sublease rental receipts and the discount rate which involve a number of risks and uncertainties, some of which are beyond control, including future real estate market conditions and the Company's ability to successfully enter into subleases or termination agreements with terms as favorable as those assumed when arriving at its estimates. The Company monitors these estimates and assumptions on at least a quarterly basis for changes in circumstances and any corresponding adjustments to the accrual are recorded in its statement of operations in the period when such changes are known. The loss recorded or to be recorded may change significantly as a result of the re-measurement of the liability, if the timing or amount of estimated cash flows change. Restructuring and Other Related Costs The Company records costs associated with exit activities related to restructuring plans in accordance with ASC 420, “Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations.” Liabilities for costs associated with an exit or disposal activity are recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred. The timing of the associated cash payments is dependent upon the type of exit cost and extends over an approximately four-year period. The Company records restructuring cost liabilities in “Accrued Expenses” and "Other Long-term Liabilities" in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Restructuring costs include employee and contract termination costs, facility consolidation and closure costs, equipment write-downs and inventory write-downs. One-time termination benefits are recognized as a liability at estimated fair value when the approved plan of termination has been communicated to employees, unless employees must provide future service, in which case the benefits are recognized ratably over the future service period. Ongoing termination benefits arrangements are recognized as a liability at estimated fair value when the amount of such benefits becomes estimable and payment is probable. Restructuring charges require significant estimates and assumptions, including estimates made for employee separation costs and other contract termination charges. Management estimates involve a number of risks and uncertainties, some of which are beyond control, including the Company's ability to successfully enter into termination agreements with employees and others with terms as favorable as those assumed when arriving at its estimates. The Company monitors these estimates and assumptions on at least a quarterly basis for changes in circumstances and any corresponding adjustments to the accrual are recorded in its statement of operations in the period when such changes are known. 88 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) Recent Accounting Pronouncements Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments", in order to improve financial reporting of expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit. Topic 326 requires that an entity measure and recognize expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost and replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in prior U.S. GAAP with a methodology that requires consideration of a broader range of information to estimate credit losses. The Company adopted Topic 326 on a modified retrospective basis in the first quarter of 2020 through a cumulative-effect adjustment at the beginning of the first quarter of 2020 and the impact of the adoption was not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements as credit losses are not expected to be significant based on historical collection trends, the financial condition of the Company’s customers, and external market factors. The Company will continue to actively monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on expected credit losses. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement” (“ASU 2018-13”). This update eliminates, adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 was effective for the Company in its first quarter of 2020. The Company adopted ASU 2018-13 in the first quarter of 2020 and the impact of the adoption was not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans” (“ASU 2018-14”). This update eliminates, adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other post-retirement plans. The ASU 2018-14 is effective for the Company for the year ended December 26, 2020. The Company adopted ASU 2018-14 in the fourth quarter of 2020 and the impact of the adoption was not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements. Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Effective In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). The ASU simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. Consequently, more convertible debt instruments will be reported as a single liability instrument with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. This update removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, which will permit more equity contracts to qualify for it. This update also simplifies the diluted net income per share calculation in certain areas. The update is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2021, and early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2020-06 would have on its consolidated financial statements. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04 (Topic 848), "Reference Rate Reform - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting” (“ASU 2020-04”), which provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the existing guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens related to the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate. The standard was effective upon issuance and may generally be applied through December 31, 2022 to any new or amended contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR. The Company will apply the amendments when its relevant contracts are modified upon transition to alternative reference rates. In December 2019, FASB issued ASU 2019-12, "Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes" (“ASU 2019-12”), as part of its simplification initiative. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions from Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 740, "Income Taxes" ("ASC 740"), including (i) the exception to the incremental approach for intra period tax allocation when there is a loss from continuing operations and income or a gain from other items such as discontinued operations or other comprehensive income; (ii) the exception to accounting for outside basis differences of equity method investments and foreign subsidiaries; and (iii) the exception to limit tax benefit recognized in interim period in cases when the year-to-date losses exceeds anticipated losses. ASU 2019-12 also simplifies U.S. GAAP in several other areas of ASC 740 such as (i) franchise taxes and other taxes partially based on income; (ii) step-up in tax basis goodwill considered part of a 89 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) business combination in which the book goodwill was originally recognized or should be considered a separate transaction; (iii) separate financial statements of entities not subject to tax; and (iv) interim recognition of enactment of tax laws or rate changes. ASU 2019-12 is effective for the Company for fiscal years (and interim periods within those fiscal years) beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company elected not to early adopt ASU 2019-12 as of December 26, 2020. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. 3. Leases The Company has operating leases for real estate and automobiles.

Changes in the contract asset and liability balances during the year ended December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019 were not materially impacted by other factors. Transaction Price Allocated to the Remaining Performance Obligation The Company’s remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied or partially satisfied, consisting of deferred revenue and backlog. The Company’s backlog represents purchase orders received from customers for future product shipments and services. The Company’s backlog is subject to future events that could cause the amount or timing of the related revenue to change, and, in certain cases, may be canceled without penalty. Orders in backlog may be fulfilled several quarters following receipt or may relate to multi-year support service obligations. The following table includes estimated revenue expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially satisfied) pursuant to contracts that are not subject to cancellation without penalty at the end of the reporting period (in thousands): 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 Thereafter Total Revenue expected to be recognized in the future as of December 26, 2020 $ 470,210 $ 33,507 $ 20,959 $ 7,111 $ 1,740 $ 1,584 $ 535,111 92 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) 5. Fair Value Measurements The following tables represent the Company’s fair value hierarchy for its assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands): Liabilities Foreign currency exchange forward contracts As of December 26, 2020 Fair Value Measured Using Total Level 2 Level 1 As of December 28, 2019 Fair Value Measured Using Total Level 2 Level 1 $ — $ (72) $ (72) $ — $ (159) $ (159) During 2020 and 2019, there were no transfers of assets or liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. As of December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019, none of the Company’s existing securities were classified as Level 3 securities. The Company classifies certain facilities-related charges within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and applies fair value accounting on a nonrecurring basis when impairment indicators exist or upon the existence of observable fair values. The fair values are classified as Level 3 measurements due to the significance of unobservable inputs. These analyses require management to make assumptions and estimates regarding industry and economic factors, future operating results and discount rates. The Company measures goodwill and intangible assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis when there are identifiable events or changes in circumstances that may have a significant adverse impact on the fair value of these assets. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company performed an analysis of impairment indicators of these assets and noted no adverse impact to their fair values as of December 26, 2020. Facilities-related Charges In connection with the 2018 Restructuring Plans (as defined in Note 10, “Restructuring and Other Related Costs” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements), for 2020 and 2019, the Company calculated the fair value of the $9.9 million and $15.9 million, respectively, in facilities-related charges based on estimated future discounted cash flows and classified the fair value as a Level 3 measurement due to the significance of unobservable inputs, which included the amount and timing of estimated sublease rental receipts that the Company could reasonably obtain over the remaining lease term and the discount rate. See Note 10, “Restructuring and Other Related Costs” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the 2018 Restructuring Plan. Cash As of December 26, 2020, the Company had $298.0 million of cash, including $87.4 million of cash held by its foreign subsidiaries. As of December 28, 2019, the Company had $109.2 million of cash including $68.7 million of cash held by its foreign subsidiaries. The Company's cash in foreign locations is used for operational and investing activities in those locations, and the Company does not currently have the need or the intent to repatriate those funds to the United States. 6. Derivative Instruments Foreign Currency Exchange Forward Contracts The Company transacts business in various foreign currencies and has international sales, cost of sales, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies, and carries foreign-currency-denominated account balances, subjecting the Company to foreign currency risk. The Company’s primary foreign currency risk management objective is to protect the U.S. dollar value of future cash flows and minimize the volatility of reported earnings. The Company utilizes foreign currency forward contracts, primarily short term in nature. Historically, the Company enters into foreign currency exchange forward contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuation in foreign exchange rates that arise from its euro and British pound denominated account 93 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) balances. Gains and losses on these contracts are intended to offset the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on the underlying foreign currency denominated account balances, do not subject the Company to material balance sheet risk. As of December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019, the Company posted $0.9 million and $0.9 million, respectively of collateral on its derivative instruments to cover potential credit risk exposure. This amount is classified as other long-term restricted cash on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The before-tax effect of foreign currency exchange forward contracts was a gain of $0.3 million, $0.5 million and $0.7 million for 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively, included in other gain (loss), net, in the consolidated statements of operations. In each of these periods, the impact of the gross gains and losses were offset by foreign exchange rate fluctuations on the underlying foreign currency denominated amounts. As of December 26, 2020, the Company did not designate foreign currency exchange forward contracts as hedges for accounting purposes and accordingly, changes in the fair value are recorded in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. These contracts were with one high-quality institution and the Company consistently monitors the creditworthiness of the counterparties. The fair value of derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets was as follows (in thousands): Foreign currency exchange forward contracts Related to euro denominated receivables Related to British pound denominated receivables Total As of December 26, 2020 As of December 28, 2019 Gross Notional(1) Other Accrued Liabilities Gross Notional(1) Other Accrued Liabilities $ 23,605 $ 4,868 $ 28,473 $ (59) $ 27,566 $ (13) (72) $ 27,566 $ — (159) — (159) (1) Represents the face amounts of forward contracts that were outstanding as of the period noted. Accounts Receivable Factoring The Company sells certain designated trade account receivables based on factoring arrangements with well-established factoring companies. Pursuant to the terms of the arrangements, the Company accounts for these transactions in accordance with ASC 860, "Transfers and Servicing". The Company's factor purchases trade accounts receivables on a non-recourse basis and without any further obligations. Trade accounts receivables balances sold are removed from the consolidated balance sheets and cash received are reflected as cash provided by operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flow. The difference between the fair value of the Company's trade receivables and the proceeds received is recorded as interest expense in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. For the years ended December 26, 2020, December 28, 2019 and December 29, 2018, the Company's recognized factoring related interest expense was approximately $0.4 million, $0.6 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The gross amount of trade accounts receivables sold totaled approximately $80.2 million and $84.8 million for the year ended December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019 respectively. Prior to the Acquisition, the Company had not entered into any factoring arrangements. 94 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) 7. Business Combination On the Acquisition Date, the Company acquired 100% ownership of Coriant. The Acquisition positions the Company as one of the largest providers of vertically integrated transport networking solutions in the world, enhances the Company's ability to serve a global customer base and accelerates delivery of the innovative solutions its customers demand. This Acquisition also positions the Company to expand the breadth of customer applications it can address, including metro aggregation and switching, disaggregated transport and routing, and software-enabled multi-layer network management and control. The Acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations” and consisted of the following (in thousands, except shares): Cash Equity consideration(1) Total $ $ 154,192 129,628 283,820 (1) Based on the closing price of the Company's common stock of $6.18 on October 1, 2018, the $129.6 million equity consideration represents the fair value of 21 million shares of the Company's common stock issued to Coriant shareholders in accordance with the Purchase Agreement. The Company financed the cash portion of the purchase price of the Acquisition with the net proceeds from its offering of the $402.5 million of 2.125% convertible senior notes due September 1, 2024 (the “2024 Notes”). See Note 13, “Debt” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information. In 2018, the Company expensed acquisition-related costs in the amount of $8.3 million in operating expenses. The Company allocated the fair value of the purchase price of the acquisition to the tangible and intangible assets acquired as well as liabilities assumed, based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities was recorded as goodwill. The Company prepared an initial determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the Acquisition Date using preliminary information. In accordance with Topic 805, during the measurement period an acquirer retrospectively adjusts the provisional amounts recognized at the Acquisition Date to reflect information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the Acquisition Date that, if known, would have affected the measurement of the amounts recognized as of the Acquisition Date. The Company has recognized measurement period adjustments during the fiscal year 2019 to the fair value of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the acquisition of Coriant, which resulted in a $30.9 million increase to goodwill. The adjustments were recorded as a result of additional information obtained during the year ended December 28, 2019 about facts and circumstances that existed as of the date of acquisition. The measurement period adjustments were primarily related to adjustments to income taxes, inventory, acquired liabilities, deferred revenue, accounts receivable and others. The measurement period adjustments included tax adjustments related to uncertain tax positions, realization of certain income taxes receivable, tax attributes and deferred tax asset valuation allowances. This resulted from additional information collected and analysis performed including preparation, filing and assessment of tax returns in certain jurisdictions. The Company also recorded adjustments to fair value of inventory as the Company received additional information and performed analysis to finalize the estimated values. The Company does not believe that the measurement period adjustments had a material impact on its consolidated statements of operations, balance sheets or cash flows in any periods previously reported. 95 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) The following table summarizes the Company’s allocation of the purchase consideration based on the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the Acquisition Date (in thousands): Cash and cash equivalents Restricted cash Accounts receivable Inventory Property, plant and equipment, net Other assets Intangible assets, net Goodwill Financing lease obligation Deferred revenue Other liabilities Total net assets Amounts Recognized as of Acquisition Date Measurement Period Adjustments Total $ $ 15,549 $ 25,743 170,466 96,067 217,991 39,145 200,700 48,235 (194,700) (43,502) (291,874) 283,820 $ — $ — (2,153) (10,433) — (5,083) — 30,916 — 5,264 (18,511) — $ 15,549 25,743 168,313 85,634 217,991 34,062 200,700 79,151 (194,700) (38,238) (310,385) 283,820 The following table presents details of the identifiable assets acquired at the Acquisition Date (in thousands): Customer relationships and backlog Developed technology In-process technology Trade name Total $ $ Fair Value 111,400 70,550 17,750 1,000 200,700 Estimated Useful Life (Years) 8 5 n/a 1 Goodwill generated from this business combination is primarily attributable to the synergies from combining the operations of Coriant with that of the Company, which resulted in strengthening the Company's ability to serve a global customer base and accelerate delivery of product solutions. The goodwill recorded in the Acquisition is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. 8. Goodwill and Intangible Assets Goodwill Goodwill is recorded when the purchase price of an acquisition exceeds the fair value of the net tangible and identified intangible assets acquired. The following table presents details of the Company’s goodwill for the year ended December 26, 2020 (in thousands): Balance as of December 28, 2019 Foreign currency translation adjustments Balance as of December 26, 2020 $ $ 249,848 23,578 273,426 96 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) The gross carrying amount of goodwill may change due to the effects of foreign currency fluctuations as a portion of these assets are denominated in foreign currency.

See Note 7, "Business Combination" to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information. The gross carrying amount of intangible assets and the related amortization expense of intangible assets may change due to the effects of foreign currency fluctuations as a portion of these assets are denominated in foreign currency. Amortization expense was $47.8 million and $59.9 million for the years ended December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019, respectively. Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization expenses are recorded to the appropriate cost and expense categories. During the year ended December 28, 2019, the Company transferred $17.8 million of its in-process technology to developed technology, which is being amortized over a useful life of five years.

Restructuring and Other Related Costs In December 2018, the Company implemented a restructuring initiative (the “2018 Restructuring Plan”) as part of a comprehensive review of the Company's operations and ongoing integration activities in order to optimize resources for future growth, improve efficiencies and address redundancies following the acquisition of Coriant. As part of the 2018 Restructuring Plan, the Company made several changes to improve its research and development efficiency by consolidating its manufacturing and development sites, including closure of its Berlin, Germany site, reducing headcount at its Munich, Germany site, and processing changes to leverage the Company's engineering and product line development resources across regions and prioritizing research and development initiatives. The Berlin and Munich initiatives were substantially completed in the first half of fiscal year 2020, with some remaining payments to be made during 2021. During 2020, the Company implemented a new restructuring initiative (the "2020 Restructuring Plan") that was primarily intended to reduce costs and consolidate its operations. During the years ended December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019, the Company recorded $18.1 million and $51.9 million, respectively in severance and related costs in its consolidated statements of operations. As of December 26, 2020, the identified cost reduction initiatives under the 2020 Restructuring Plan were substantially completed, with the majority of associated payments made in 2020 and the remaining amounts expected to be paid by the first half of 2021. Additional restructuring activities may occur in the future in connection with the Company’s ongoing transformation initiatives. In connection with the Acquisition, the Company assumed restructuring liabilities associated with Coriant's previous restructuring and reorganization plans consisting of termination benefits primarily comprised of severance payments. These costs are recorded at estimated fair value. The following table presents restructuring and other related costs included in cost of revenue and operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations under the 2020 Restructuring Plan, the 2018 Restructuring Plan, Coriant's previous restructuring and reorganization plans, and the Company's earlier restructuring initiatives (in thousands): December 26, 2020 December 28, 2019 December 29, 2018 Years Ended Severance and related expenses Lease related impairment charges Asset impairment Others Total Cost of Revenue Cost of Revenue Operating Expenses Operating Expenses Operating Cost of Revenue Expenses $ 4,042 $ 14,054 $ 26,576 $ 25,303 $ 2,630 $ 10,413 (544) 2,643 — $ 4,146 $ 24,586 $ 29,935 $ 40,851 $ 2,630 $ 12,512 14,703 7 838 9,851 468 213 1,158 2,201 — 88 14 2 — — — 100 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) Restructuring liabilities are reported within accrued expenses and other long-term liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets (in thousands): Severance and related expenses Lease related impairment charges Asset impairment Others 243 $ Balance as of December 29, 2018 Charges Cash payments Non-cash Settlements and Other Balance as of December 28, 2019 Charges Cash payments Non-cash Settlements and Other Balance as of December 26, 2020 $ $ $ 19,842 $ 51,879 (43,136) (20) 28,565 $ 18,096 (36,346) (74) 10,241 $ 4,266 $ 15,861 (8,418) (11,709) — $ 9,939 (5,102) (4,837) — $ 2,208 (243) (2,208) — $ 482 (28) (454) — $ — $ 838 — — 838 $ 215 (719) (104) 230 $ Total 24,351 70,786 (51,797) (13,937) 29,403 28,732 (42,195) (5,469) 10,471 As of December 26, 2020, the Company's restructuring liability was comprised of $10.2 million of severance and related expenses, of which $3.8 million is related to assumed restructuring liabilities associated with Coriant's previous restructuring and reorganization plans and is expected to be paid by end of 2023. Out of the remaining liability, $1.7 million is primarily related to the 2018 Restructuring Plan and is expected to be substantially paid by the end of 2020, and $4.7 million is related to the 2020 Restructuring Plan and is expected to be substantially paid by the first half of 2021. The Company's restructuring liability as of December 26, 2020 also comprised $0.2 million related to service agreements that were determined to have no future use. The Company expects the payments related to the service agreements to be fully paid by the second quarter of 2021. Non-cash Settlements and Other primarily include foreign exchange impact on settlement of restructuring liability and impairment of right of use asset. 101 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) 11. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) includes certain changes in equity that are excluded from net income (loss).

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Common Share Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed using net loss and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive common shares include the assumed exercise of outstanding in-the-money stock options, assumed release of outstanding RSUs and PSUs, and assumed issuance of common stock under the ESPP using the treasury stock method. Potentially dilutive common shares also include the assumed conversion of $402.5 million in aggregate principal amount of the Company's 2.125% convertible senior notes due September 1, 2024 (the “2024 Notes”) from the conversion spread (as further discussed in Note 13, “Debt” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements), $200 million in aggregate principal amount of the Company's 2.50% convertible senior notes due March 1, 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) from the conversion spread (as further discussed in Note 13, “Debt” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements) and $150.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its 1.75% convertible senior notes due June 1, 2018 (the “2018 Notes”) from the conversion spread (as further discussed in Note 11, “Convertible Senior Notes” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2017), as applicable during each of the reported periods. The Company would include the dilutive effects of the 2024 Notes and 2027 Notes in the calculation of diluted net income per common share if the 102 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) average market price is above the conversion price. Upon conversion of the 2024 Notes and 2027 Notes, it is the Company’s intention to pay cash equal to the lesser of the aggregate principal amount or the conversion value of the 2024 Notes and 2027 Notes being converted; therefore, only the conversion spread relating to the 2024 Notes and 2027 Notes would be included in the Company’s diluted earnings per share calculation unless their effect is anti-dilutive. The Company includes the common shares underlying PSUs in the calculation of diluted net income per common share only when they become contingently issuable. The following table sets forth the computation of net loss per common share (in thousands, except per share amounts): Net loss Weighted average common shares outstanding - basic and diluted Net loss per common share - basic and diluted December 26, 2020 (206,723) $ $ Years Ended December 28, 2019 (386,618) $ December 29, 2018 (214,295) 188,216 178,984 $ (1.10) $ (2.16) $ 157,748 (1.36) The Company incurred net losses during 2020, 2019 and 2018, and as a result, potential common shares from stock options, RSUs, PSUs and the assumed release of outstanding shares under the ESPP were not included in the diluted shares used to calculate net loss per share, as their inclusion would have been anti- dilutive. Additionally, due to the net loss position during these periods, the Company excluded the potential shares issuable upon conversion of the 2027 Notes, 2024 Notes and the 2018 Notes in the calculation of diluted earnings per share, as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. The following table sets forth the potentially dilutive shares excluded from the computation of the diluted net loss per share because their effect was anti-dilutive (in thousands): Stock options outstanding Restricted stock units Performance stock units Employee stock purchase plan shares Total December 26, 2020 As of December 28, 2019 December 29, 2018 451 13,947 3,668 133 18,199 873 11,776 2,389 569 15,607 1,134 7,792 1,284 940 11,150 13. Debt 2.50% Convertible Senior Notes due March 1, 2027 In March 2020, the Company issued the 2027 Notes due on March 1, 2027, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. The 2027 Notes are governed by an indenture dated as of March 9, 2020 (the “2027 Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The 2027 Notes are unsecured, and the 2027 Indenture does not contain any financial covenants or any restrictions on the payment of dividends, the incurrence of senior debt or other indebtedness, or the issuance or repurchase of the Company's other securities by the Company. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing on September 1, 2020. The net proceeds to the Company were approximately $193.3 million after deducting initial purchasers' fee and other debt issuance costs. The Company intends to use the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, including working capital to fund growth and potential strategic projects. 103 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) Upon conversion, it is the Company’s intention to pay cash equal to the lesser of the aggregate principal amount or the conversion value of the 2027 Notes. For any remaining conversion obligation, the Company intends to pay or deliver, as the case may be, either cash, shares of its common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of its common stock, at the Company’s election. The initial conversion rate is 130.5995 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2027 Notes, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $7.66 per share of common stock. Throughout the term of the 2027 Notes, the conversion rate may be adjusted upon the occurrence of certain events, including for any cash dividends. Holders of the 2027 Notes will not receive any cash payment representing accrued and unpaid interest upon conversion of a 2027 Note. Accrued but unpaid interest will be deemed to be paid in full upon conversion rather than canceled, extinguished or forfeited. Prior to December 1, 2026, holders may convert their 2027 Notes under the following circumstances: • • • • • during any fiscal quarter commencing after the fiscal quarter ended on June 27, 2020 (and only during such fiscal quarter) if the last reported sale price of the common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of 2027 Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; if the Company calls any or all of the 2027 Notes for redemption, such 2027 Notes called for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date; upon the occurrence of specified corporate events described under the 2027 Indenture, such as a consolidation, merger or binding share exchange; or at any time on or after December 1, 2026 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert their 2027 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. If the Company undergoes a fundamental change as defined in the 2027 Indenture, holders may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their 2027 Notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2027 Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. In addition, upon the occurrence of a “make-whole fundamental change” (as defined in the 2027 Indenture), the Company may, in certain circumstances, be required to increase the conversion rate by a number of additional shares for a holder that elects to convert its 2027 Notes in connection with such make-whole fundamental change. The net carrying amounts of the debt obligation were as follows (in thousands): Principal Unamortized discount (1) Unamortized issuance cost (1) Net carrying amount December 26, 2020 $ 200,000 (64,223) (3,963) 131,814 $ (1) Unamortized debt conversion discount and issuance costs will be amortized over the remaining life of the 2027 Notes, which is approximately 74 months. As of December 26, 2020, the carrying amount of the equity component of the 2027 Notes was $67.8 million. 104 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) In accounting for the issuance of the 2027 Notes, the Company separated the 2027 Notes into liability and equity components. The carrying amount of the liability component was calculated by measuring the fair value of a similar debt instrument that does not have an associated convertible feature. The carrying amount of the equity component representing the conversion option was determined by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the par value of the 2027 Notes. The equity component is not remeasured as long as it continues to meet the conditions for equity classification. The excess of the principal amount of the liability component over its carrying amount (“debt discount”) is amortized to interest expense over the term of the 2027 Notes. The Company allocated the total issuance costs incurred to the liability and equity components of the 2027 Notes based on their relative values. Issuance costs attributable to the liability component were recorded as a reduction to the liability portion of the 2027 Notes and will be amortized as interest expense over the term of the 2027 Notes. The issuance costs attributable to the equity component were netted with the equity component in stockholders’ equity. The Company recorded a deferred tax liability of $16.2 million in connection with the issuance of the 2027 Notes, and a corresponding reduction in valuation allowance. The impact of both was recorded to stockholders' equity. The Company determined that the embedded conversion option in the 2027 Notes does not require separate accounting treatment as a derivative instrument because it is both indexed to the Company’s own stock and would be classified in stockholders’ equity if freestanding. The following table sets forth total interest expense recognized related to the 2027 Notes (in thousands): Contractual interest expense Amortization of debt issuance costs Amortization of debt discount Total interest expense $ Year ended December 26, 2020 4,024 365 5,910 10,299 $ For the year ended December 26, 2020, the debt discount and debt issuance costs for the 2027 Notes were amortized, using an annual effective interest rate of 9.92%, to interest expense over the term of the 2027 Notes. As of December 26, 2020, the fair value of the 2027 Notes was $319.3 million. The fair value was determined based on the quoted bid price of the 2027 Notes in an over-the-counter market on December 24, 2020 (the last trading day of the fiscal quarter). The 2027 Notes are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock of $10.97 per share as reported on the Nasdaq Stock Market on December 24, 2020 (the last trading day of the fiscal quarter), the if-converted value of the 2027 Notes exceeded their principal amount by approximately $86.5 million. Asset-based revolving credit facility On August 1, 2019, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association. The Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility of up to $100 million (the "Credit Facility"), which the Company may draw upon from time to time. The Company may increase the total commitments under the Credit Facility by up to an additional $50 million, subject to certain conditions. The Credit Agreement provides for a $50 million letter of credit sub-facility and a $10 million swing loan sub-facility. 105 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) On December 23, 2019, the Company exercised its option to increase the total commitments under the Credit Facility and entered into an Increase Joinder and Amendment Number One to Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”), with BMO Harris Bank N.A. and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent. The amendment increased the total commitments under the Credit Facility to $150 million. The proceeds of the loans under the Credit Agreement, as amended by the Amendment (the “Amended Credit Agreement”) may be used to pay the fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Amended Credit Agreement and for working capital and general corporate purposes. The Credit Facility matures, and all outstanding loans become due and payable, on March 5, 2024. Availability under the Credit Facility is based upon periodic borrowing base certifications valuing certain inventory and accounts receivable, as reduced by certain reserves. The Credit Facility is secured by first-priority security interest (subject to certain exceptions) in inventory, certain related assets, specified deposit accounts, and certain other accounts in certain domestic subsidiaries. Loans under the Amended Credit Agreement bear interest, at the Company's option, at either a rate based on LIBOR for the applicable interest period or a base rate, in each case plus a margin. The margin ranges from 2.00% to 2.50% for LIBOR rate loans and 1.00% to 1.50% for base rate loans, depending on the utilization of the Credit Facility. The commitment fee payable on the unused portion of the Credit Facility ranges from 0.375% to 0.625% per annum, also based on the current utilization of the Credit Facility. Letters of credit issued pursuant to the Credit Facility will accrue a fee at a per annum rate equal to the applicable LIBOR rate margin times the average amount of the letter of credit usage during the immediately preceding quarter in addition to the fronting fees, commissions and other fees. The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative covenants, such as financial statement reporting requirements and delivery of borrowing base certificates. The Amended Credit Agreement also contains customary covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur debt, create liens and encumbrances, engage in certain fundamental changes, dispose of assets, prepay certain indebtedness, make restricted payments, make investments, and engage in transactions with affiliates. The Amended Credit Agreement also contains a financial covenant that requires the Company to maintain a minimum amount of liquidity and customary events of default. In connection with the Credit Facility, the Company incurred lender and other third-party costs of approximately $4.9 million for the period ended December 28, 2019, which are recorded as a deferred asset and are amortized to interest expense using a straight-line method over the term of the Credit Facility. During the year ended December 26, 2020, the Company recorded $1.1 million as amortization of deferred debt issuance cost, $3.9 million as contractual interest expense and related charges. As of December 26, 2020, the Company had availability of $61.3 million under the Credit Facility and had letters of credit outstanding of approximately $11.5 million. As of December 28, 2019, the Company had availability of $115.9 million under the Credit Facility and had letters of credit outstanding of approximately $4.1 million. As of December 26, 2020, $77.0 million was outstanding under the Credit Facility, which was included in short-term debt. The outstanding balance was repaid in full on January 7, 2021. Finance Assistance Agreement During March 2019, the Company signed an agreement with a third-party contract manufacturer that governs the transfer of the activities from the legacy Coriant manufacturing facility in Berlin, Germany to a third- party contract manufacturer. Subsequently in May 2019, the Company entered into a financing assistance agreement with the contract manufacturer whereby the contract manufacturer agreed to provide funding of up to $40 million to cover severance, retention and other costs associated with the transfer. The funding is secured against certain foreign assets, carries a fixed interest rate of 6% and is repayable in 12 months from the date of each draw down. In October 2020, the Company and the contract manufacturer amended the payment terms to extend the due date by six months set the fixed interest rate at 3% during such period, and allow for the phased transfer of inventory to offset the amount due. As of December 26, 2020, $24.6 million was outstanding, which was included in short-term debt. 106 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) Mortgage Payable In March 2019, the Company mortgaged a property it owns. The Company received proceeds of $8.7 million in connection with the loan. The loan carries a fixed interest rate of 5.25% and is repayable in 59 equal monthly installments of approximately $0.1 million each with the remaining unpaid principal balance plus accrued unpaid interest due five years from the date of the loan. As of December 26, 2020, $8.2 million remained outstanding, of which $0.4 million was included in short-term debt and $7.8 million was included in long-term debt. As of December 28, 2019, $8.4 million remained outstanding, of which $0.4 million was included in short- term debt and $8.0 million was included in long-term debt. 2.125% Convertible Senior Notes due September 1, 2024 In September 2018, the Company issued the 2024 Notes due on September 1, 2024, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. The 2024 Notes are governed by a base indenture dated as of September 11, 2018 and a first supplemental indenture dated as of September 11, 2018 (together, the “Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The 2024 Notes are unsecured, and the Indenture does not contain any financial covenants or any restrictions on the payment of dividends, the incurrence of senior debt or other indebtedness, or the issuance or repurchase of the Company's other securities by the Company. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing March 1, 2019. The net proceeds to the Company were approximately $391.4 million, of which approximately $48.9 million was used to pay the cost of the capped call transactions with certain financial institutions (“Capped Calls”). The Company also used a portion of the remaining net proceeds to fund the cash portion of the purchase price of the Acquisition (as discussed in Note 7, “Business Combination” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements), including fees and expenses relating thereto, and intends to use the remaining net proceeds for general corporate purposes. The Capped Calls have an initial strike price of $9.87 per share, subject to certain adjustments, which corresponds to the initial conversion price of the 2024 Notes. The Capped Calls have initial cap prices of $15.19 per share, subject to certain adjustments. The Capped Calls cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, 40.8 million shares of common stock. The capped call transactions are expected generally to reduce or offset potential dilution to the Company's common stock upon any conversion of the 2024 Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted 2024 Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. The Capped Calls expire on various dates between July 5, 2024 and August 29, 2024. The Capped Calls were recorded as a reduction of the Company’s stockholders' equity in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Upon conversion, it is the Company's intention to pay cash equal to the lesser of the aggregate principal amount or the conversion value of the 2024 Notes. For any remaining conversion obligation, the Company intends to pay or deliver, as the case may be, either cash, shares of its common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of its common stock, at the Company’s election. The initial conversion rate is 101.2812 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2024 Notes, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $9.87 per share of common stock. Throughout the term of the 2024 Notes, the conversion rate may be adjusted upon the occurrence of certain events, including for any cash dividends. Holders of the 2024 Notes will not receive any cash payment representing accrued and unpaid interest upon conversion of a 2024 Note. Accrued but unpaid interest will be deemed to be paid in full upon conversion rather than canceled, extinguished or forfeited. Prior to June 1, 2024, holders may convert their 2024 Notes under the following circumstances: • during any fiscal quarter commencing after the fiscal quarter ended on December 29, 2018 (and only during such fiscal quarter) if the last reported sale price of the common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; • during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of 2024 Notes for 107 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; if the Company calls the 2024 Notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date; upon the occurrence of specified corporate events described under the Indenture, such as a consolidation, merger or binding share exchange; or at any time on or after June 1, 2024 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert their 2024 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. • • • If the Company undergoes a fundamental change as defined in the Indenture governing the 2024 Notes, holders may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their 2024 Notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2024 Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. In addition, upon the occurrence of a “make-whole fundamental change” (as defined in the Indenture), the Company may, in certain circumstances, be required to increase the conversion rate by a number of additional shares for a holder that elects to convert its 2024 Notes in connection with such make-whole fundamental change. The net carrying amounts of the debt obligation were as follows (in thousands): Principal Unamortized discount (1) Unamortized issuance cost (1) Net carrying amount December 26, 2020 402,500 $ (90,213) (5,889) 306,398 $ December 28, 2019 402,500 (109,652) (7,158) 285,690 $ $ (1) Unamortized debt conversion discount and issuance costs will be amortized over the remaining life of the 2024 Notes, which is approximately 44 months. As of December 26, 2020, the carrying amount of the equity component of the 2024 Notes was $128.7 million. In accounting for the issuance of the 2024 Notes, the Company separated the 2024 Notes into liability and equity components. The carrying amount of the liability component was calculated by measuring the fair value of a similar debt instrument that does not have an associated convertible feature. The carrying amount of the equity component representing the conversion option was determined by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the par value of the 2024 Notes. The equity component is not re-measured as long as it continues to meet the conditions for equity classification. The excess of the principal amount of the liability component over its carrying amount (“debt discount”) is amortized to interest expense over the term of the 2024 Notes. The Company allocated the total issuance costs incurred to the liability and equity components of the 2024 Notes based on their relative values. Issuance costs attributable to the liability component were recorded as a reduction to the liability portion of the Notes and will be amortized as interest expense over the term of the 2024 Notes. The issuance costs attributable to the equity component were netted with the equity component in stockholders’ equity. The Company recorded a deferred tax liability of $30.9 million in connection with the issuance of the 2024 Notes, and a corresponding reduction in valuation allowance. The impact of both was recorded to stockholders' equity. 108 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) The Company determined that the embedded conversion option in the 2024 Notes does not require separate accounting treatment as a derivative instrument because it is both indexed to the Company’s own stock and would be classified in stockholder’s equity if freestanding. The following table sets forth total interest expense recognized related to the 2024 Notes (in thousands): Contractual interest expense Amortization of debt issuance costs Amortization of debt discount Total interest expense Year Ended December 26, 2020 December 28, 2019 $ $ 8,553 $ 1,269 19,439 29,261 $ 8,553 1,149 17,612 27,314 For the years ended December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019, the debt discount and debt issuance costs were amortized, using an annual effective interest rate of 9.92%, to interest expense over the term of the 2024 Notes. As of December 26, 2020, the fair value of the 2024 Notes was $515.2 million. The fair value was determined based on the quoted bid price of the 2024 Notes in an over-the-counter market on December 24, 2020. As of December 28, 2019, the fair value of the 2024 Notes was $417.2 million. The fair value was determined based on the quoted bid price of the 2024 Notes in an over-the-counter market on December 27, 2019. The 2024 Notes are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock of $10.97 on December 24, 2020, the if- converted value of the 2024 Notes exceeded their principal amount by approximately $44.7 million. 1.75% Convertible Senior Notes due June 1, 2018 In May 2013, the Company issued the 2018 Notes, which matured on June 1, 2018. Upon maturity of the 2018 Notes, the Company repaid in full all $150.0 million in aggregate principal amount and the final coupon interest of $1.3 million. The following table sets forth total interest expense recognized related to the 2018 Notes (in thousands): Contractual interest expense Amortization of debt issuance costs Amortization of debt discount Total interest expense Year ended December 29, 2018 $ 1,094 402 4,671 6,167 $ The coupon rate was 1.75%. For the year ended December 29, 2018, the debt discount and debt issuance costs were amortized, using an annual effective interest rate of 10.23%, to interest expense over the term of the 2018 Notes. 109 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) 14. Commitments and Contingencies Operating Leases The Company leases facilities under non-cancelable operating lease agreements. These leases have varying terms that range from one to 11 years. The Company has contractual commitments to remove leasehold improvements and return certain properties to a specified condition when the leases terminate. At the inception of a lease with such conditions, the Company records an asset retirement obligation liability and a corresponding capital asset in an amount equal to the estimated fair value of the obligation. Asset retirement obligations were $5.0 million and $4.7 million as of December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019, respectively. Of the $5.0 million as of December 26, 2020, $0.4 million is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and the remainder is classified as other long-term liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Future annual minimum operating lease payments at December 26, 2020 were as follows (in thousands): Operating lease payments 2021 2022 2024 $ 22,866 $ 20,972 $ 17,400 $ 15,244 $ 14,238 $ 31,178 $ 121,898 Thereafter Total 2023 2025 The implementation of the 2018 Restructuring Plans, resulted in the Company vacating certain leased facilities. See Note 10, "Restructuring and Other Related Costs" to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information. Financing Lease Obligations The Company has two finance leases for manufacturing and other equipment. See Note 9, "Balance Sheet Details" to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information. Future annual minimum financing lease payments at December 26, 2020 were as follows (in thousands): Financing lease obligations Purchase Commitments 2021 2023 $ 1,253 $ 984 $ 446 $ — $ — $ 2024 2022 2025 Thereafter Total — $ 2,683 The Company has agreements with its major production suppliers, where the Company is committed to purchase certain parts. As of December 26, 2020, December 28, 2019 and December 29, 2018, these non- cancelable purchase commitments were $291.4 million, $258.2 million and $203.5 million, respectively. The significant increase of purchase commitments in 2018 was due to the Acquisition. Future purchase commitments at December 26, 2020 were as follows (in thousands): Purchase obligations 2021 2023 $ 274,236 $ 11,110 $ 5,731 $ 288 $ — $ 2024 2022 2025 Thereafter Total — $ 291,365 The contractual obligation tables above exclude tax liabilities of $18.5 million related to uncertain tax positions because the Company cannot reliably estimate the timing and amount of future payments, if any. Convertible Senior Notes 2027 The future interest and principal payments related to the 2027 Notes are as follows as of December 26, 2020 (in thousands): 110 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) Convertible senior notes, including interest 2021 2024 $ 5,000 $ 5,000 $ 5,000 $ 5,000 $ 5,000 $ 207,500 $ 232,500 Thereafter Total 2022 2023 2025 Convertible Senior Notes 2024 The future interest and principal payments related to the 2024 Notes are as follows as of December 26, 2020 (in thousands): Convertible senior notes, including interest Mortgage Payable 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 Thereafter Total $ 8,553 $ 8,553 $ 8,553 $ 411,053 $ — $ — $ 436,712 The future interest and principal payments related to the Mortgage are as follows as of December 26, 2020 (in thousands): Mortgage payable, including interest 2022 2021 2023 $ 841 $ 912 $ 841 $ 6,976 $ — $ 2025 2024 Thereafter Total — $ 9,570 Finance Assistance Agreement The future interest and principal payments related to the Financing assistance agreement are as follows as of December 26, 2020 (in thousands): Finance assistance agreement 2022 2021 2023 $ 26,263 $ — $ — $ — $ — $ 2025 2024 Thereafter Total — $ 26,263 Asset-Based Revolving Credit Facility The future interest and principal payments related to the Credit Facility are as follows as of December 26, 2020 (in thousands): Asset-based revolving credit facility 2021 2022 2023 $ 77,750 $ — $ — $ — $ — $ 2024 2025 Thereafter Total — $ 77,750 On January 7, 2021, the Company repaid the outstanding balance. Legal Matters Oyster Optics LLC I On November 23, 2016, Oyster Optics, LLP (“Oyster Optics”) filed a complaint against the Company in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. The complaint asserts infringement of U.S. Patent Nos. 6,469,816, 6,476,952, 6,594,055, 7,099,592, 7,620,327 (the “’327 patent”), 8,374,511 (the “’511 patent”) and 8,913,898 (the “’898 patent”). Collectively, the asserted patents are referred to herein as the “Oyster Optics patents in suit.” The complaint seeks unspecified damages and a permanent injunction. The Company filed its answer to Oyster Optics’ complaint on February 3, 2017. The Company filed two petitions for Inter Partes Review (“IPR”) of the ‘898 patent with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”). Other defendants have filed IPR petitions in connection with the remaining Oyster Optics patents in suit. The USPTO instituted two IPRs of the ‘511 patent and two IPRs of the ‘898 patent but denied IPR petitions in connection with the ‘327 patent. 111 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) A first Markman decision issued on December 5, 2017 and fact discovery closed on December 22, 2017. Oyster Optics dropped the ‘511 and ‘898 patents, leaving only a few claims in the ‘327 patent at issue in the case. Oyster Optics LLC II On May 15, 2018, Oyster Optics filed a second patent infringement complaint in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, naming the Company as a defendant. In its new complaint, Oyster Optics alleges infringement of the ‘327 patent, ‘898 patent and U.S. Patent No. 9,749,040. On June 8, 2018, the court granted the parties’ joint motion to sever and consolidate the first-filed lawsuit with the later filed case. The Company filed its answer to the new complaint on July 16, 2018. On October 26, 2018, the Company filed an amended answer to include a license defense based on a license agreement dated June 28, 2018 by and between Oyster Optics and several subsidiaries of Coriant (now one of the Company’s affiliated subsidiaries). The Company also filed a motion for summary judgment based on the license defense on November 29, 2018. On June 25, 2019, the court granted the Company’s motion for summary judgment and on June 28, 2019, the court entered a final judgment for the Company. On July 22, 2019, Oyster Optics filed an appeal of the court’s decision with the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. On February 11, 2021, the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed the district court’s decision. The Company believes that it does not infringe any valid and enforceable claim of the Oyster Optics patents in suit and intends to defend this action vigorously. The Company is currently unable to predict the outcome of this litigation and therefore cannot determine the likelihood of loss nor estimate a range of possible loss. Oyster Optics LLC III On July 29, 2019, Oyster Optics filed a third complaint against the Company, Coriant (USA) Inc., Coriant North America, LLC and Coriant Operations, Inc. in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. The complaint asserts infringement of U.S. Patent No. 6,665,500 (the “Oyster III patent in suit”). The complaint seeks unspecified damages and a permanent injunction. On October 7, 2019, the Company filed its answer to the complaint asserting among other things, counterclaims and defenses based on non- infringement, invalidity, and a license to the Oyster III patent in suit. On October 28, 2019, Oyster Optics filed an amended complaint. On December 3, 2019, the Company filed a motion to dismiss certain claims based on certain allegations made by Oyster Optics in their amended complaint, and Oyster Optics filed its opposition to the Company's motion on January 3, 2020. The Company filed its reply brief on January 13, 2020, and Oyster Optics filed its sur-reply on January 21, 2020. On December 27, 2019, the Company filed IPR petitions with the USPTO, in which the Company requested the USPTO to invalidate the asserted claims of the Oyster III patent in suit. On January 17, 2020, the Company filed a motion to stay to the case pending a decision of the validity of the Oyster III patent in suit by the USPTO. Oyster Optics submitted its response to the Company’s IPR petitions on April 13, 2020. The Company filed its answer to Oyster Optics' amended complaint on April 14, 2020. In connection with the Company’s IPR petitions, the USPTO issued an order on June 8, 2020, requesting additional briefing on the issue of why the Company filed two IPR petitions instead of one. The Company filed its reply to the USPTO order on June 16, 2020, and Oyster Optics submitted its sur-reply on June 18, 2020. On June 26, 2020, the USPTO instituted some of the Company’s IPR claims and rejected others. In light of the USPTO's favorable institution decision, the Company filed a renewed motion to stay the Oyster III case on June 30, 2020. On July 17, 2020, the Court denied the Company's motion to stay the proceedings, and on July 24, 2020 the Company received the Court's claim construction decision. On September 28, 2020, the Company filed motions for summary judgement based on the Company's license, non-infringement and marking defenses. The Company also filed motions to exclude certain testimony by Oyster Optics' expert witnesses. On September 29, 2020, the Court dismissed Oyster Optics' fraud claims without prejudice in response to the motion the Company filed on December 3, 2019. The Company and Oyster Optics participated in a mediation on October 16, 2020, which failed to result in any settlement between the parties. On February 11, 2021, the Court held a hearing with respect to the motions based on the Company’s license defenses. A second hearing with respect to the remaining motions based on the Company’s marking and non-infringement defenses is scheduled for March 25, 2021. In addition, the USPTO is holding a hearing in March 2021 regarding the Company's IPR petitions, with a decision due by the end of June 2021. A trial is currently scheduled for April 2021. The Company believes that it does not infringe any valid and enforceable claim of the Oyster III patent in suit and intends to defend this action vigorously. The Company is currently unable to predict the outcome of this litigation and therefore cannot reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of loss, if any, arising from this matter. 112 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) Capella Photonics, Inc. On March 17, 2020, Capella Photonics, Inc. ("Capella") filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas against the Company, Tellabs, Inc., Coriant Operations, Inc., Coriant America Inc., and Coriant (USA) Inc.), alleging infringement of Capella U.S. Reissue Patent Nos. RE47,905 and RE47,906 (the "Capella Patents," which are reissued versions of the patents Capella previously asserted in a prior lawsuit). The complaint alleges infringement of the Capella Patents against certain legacy Coriant platforms. The complaint seeks unspecified damages and a permanent injunction. The Company filed answers to the complaint on May 29, 2020. On July 6, 2020, the Company filed a motion seeking to transfer the case to the Northern District of California, which motion remains pending at this time. The Parties continue to engage in fact discovery. A trial is currently scheduled for August 2021. The Company believes that it does not infringe any valid and enforceable claim of the Capella Patents, and intends to defend this action vigorously. The Company is currently unable to predict the outcome of this litigation and therefore cannot reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of loss, if any, arising from this matter. Viewpoint IP LLC On February 24, 2021, Viewpoint IP LLC (“Viewpoint”) filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware against the Company, alleging infringement of Viewpoint’s U.S. Patent No. 6,869,853 (the “Viewpoint Patent”). The complaint alleges infringement of the Viewpoint Patent by the Company’s “Infinera-GX Series” product. The Company intends to defend this action vigorously. Because this action is in the early stages, the Company is unable to predict the outcome of this litigation at this time and therefore cannot reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of loss, if any, arising from this matter. In addition to the matters described above, the Company is subject to various legal proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of these matters is currently not determinable, the Company does not expect that the ultimate costs to resolve these matters will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Loss Contingencies The Company is subject to the possibility of various losses arising in the ordinary course of business. These may relate to disputes, litigation and other legal actions. In the preparation of its quarterly and annual financial statements, the Company considers the likelihood of loss or the incurrence of a liability, including whether it is probable, reasonably possible or remote that a liability has been incurred, as well as the Company’s ability to reasonably estimate the amount of loss, in determining loss contingencies. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, an estimated loss contingency is accrued when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company regularly evaluates current information to determine whether any accruals should be adjusted and whether new accruals are required. As of December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019, the Company has accrued the estimated liabilities associated with certain loss contingencies. Indemnification Obligations From time to time, the Company enters into certain types of contracts that contingently require it to indemnify parties against third-party claims. The terms of such indemnification obligations vary. These contracts may relate to: (i) certain real estate leases under which the Company may be required to indemnify property owners for environmental and other liabilities, and other claims arising from the Company’s use of the applicable premises; and (ii) certain agreements with the Company’s officers, directors and certain key employees, under which the Company may be required to indemnify such persons for liabilities. In addition, the Company has agreed to indemnify certain customers for claims made against the Company’s products, where such claims allege infringement of third-party intellectual property rights, including, but not limited to, patents, registered trademarks, and/or copyrights. Under the aforementioned intellectual property indemnification clauses, the Company may be obligated to defend the customer and pay for the damages awarded against the customer under an infringement claim as well as the customer’s attorneys’ fees and costs. These indemnification obligations generally do not expire after termination or expiration of the agreement containing the indemnification obligation. In certain cases, there are limits on and exceptions to the 113 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) Company’s potential liability for indemnification. The Company cannot estimate the amount of potential future payments, if any, that it might be required to make as a result of these agreements. The maximum potential amount of any future payments that the Company could be required to make under these indemnification obligations could be significant. As permitted under Delaware law and the Company’s charter and bylaws, the Company has agreements whereby it indemnifies certain of its officers and each of its directors. The term of the indemnification period is for the officer’s or director’s lifetime for certain events or occurrences while the officer or director is, or was, serving at the Company’s request in such capacity. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements could be significant; however, the Company has a director and officer insurance policy that may reduce its exposure and enable it to recover all or a portion of any future amounts paid. As a result of its insurance policy coverage, the Company believes the estimated fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal. 15. Guarantees Product Warranties Activity related to product warranty was as follows (in thousands): Beginning balance Charges to operations Utilization Change in estimate(1) Balance at the end of the period December 26, 2020 December 28, 2019 $ $ 43,348 $ 23,973 (31,462) 4,849 40,708 $ 41,021 23,874 (25,070) 3,523 43,348 (1) The Company records product warranty liabilities based on the latest quality and cost information available as of the date the revenue is recorded. The changes in estimate shown here are due to changes in overall actual failure rates, the mix of new versus used units related to replacement of failed units, and changes in the estimated cost of repair and product recalls. During the year ended December 26, 2020, the Company recorded $5.0 million in product warranty cost as a result of revising estimated failure rates and repair cost data for certain products. As the Company's products mature over time, failure rates and repair costs associated with such products generally decline leading to favorable changes in warranty reserves. Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees The Company had $28.9 million of standby letters of credit, bank guarantees and surety bonds outstanding as of December 26, 2020. These consisted of $19.5 million related to customer performance guarantees, $0.3 million of value-added tax and customs' licenses, $4.0 million related to property leases, $4.4 million related to Coriant pre-acquisition restructuring plans, $0.6 million related to credit cards and $0.1 million for other liabilities. Of the $19.5 million related to customer performance guarantees, approximately $2.8 million was used to secure Surety Bonds in the aggregate of $5.5 million. Of the aforementioned standby letters of credit and bank guarantees outstanding, $11.5 million was backed by cash collateral from a third-party institution, and the Company accrues 2.25% annual fee and 0.13% annual fronting fee on the average LOC balances outstanding on the cash collateral. The Company had $27.9 million of standby letters of credit and bank guarantees outstanding as of December 28, 2019. These consisted of $14.2 million related to customer performance guarantees, $0.4 million of value-added tax and customs' licenses, $5.9 million related to property leases, $6.8 million related to Coriant pre-acquisition restructuring plans, $0.5 million related to credit cards and $0.1 million for other liabilities. As of December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019, the Company had a Credit Facility, which included a $50.0 million letter of credit sub-facility, pursuant to which letters of credit in the amount of $11.5 million and $4.1 million had been issued and outstanding for both periods, respectively. Approximately $169.5 million and $180.9 million of assets of certain Company subsidiaries have been pledged to secure this Credit Facility and other obligations as of December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019, respectively. 114 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) 16. Stockholders’ Equity Open Market Sales Agreement On August 12, 2020, the Company entered into an Open Market Sale Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with Jefferies LLC (“Jefferies”), as sales agent and/or principal, pursuant to which the Company issued and sold through Jefferies, from time to time, shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”), having an aggregate offering price of $96.3 million. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Sales Agreement, Jefferies will use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell the Shares from time to time, based upon the Company’s instructions. The Company has provided Jefferies with customary indemnification rights, and Jefferies will be entitled to a compensation of 3% of the gross proceeds per Share sold. Sales of the Shares, if any, under the Sales Agreement may be made in transactions that are deemed to be “at the market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company has no obligation to sell any of the Shares and may at any time suspend sales under the Sales Agreement or terminate the Sales Agreement. During the fiscal year ended December 26, 2020, the Company sold 12 million shares of common stock under the Sales Agreement, for net proceeds of approximately $93.4 million after paying Jefferies a sales commission of approximately $2.9 million related to services provided as the sales agent with respect to the sales of those shares. 2007 Equity Incentive Plan, 2016 Equity Incentive Plan, 2019 Inducement Equity Incentive Plan and Employee Stock Purchase Plan In February 2007, the Company’s board of directors adopted the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”) and the Company’s stockholders approved the 2007 Plan in May 2007. The Company reserved a total of 46.8 million shares of common stock for issuance under the 2007 Plan. Upon stockholder approval of the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”), the Company has ceased granting equity awards under the 2007 Plan; however, the 2007 Plan will continue to govern the terms and conditions of the outstanding options and awards previously granted under the 2007 Plan. As of December 26, 2020, options to purchase 0.1 million shares of the Company's common stock were outstanding and an insignificant number of RSUs were outstanding under the 2007 Plan. In February 2016, the Company's board of directors adopted the 2016 Plan and the Company's stockholders approved the 2016 Plan in May 2016. In May 2018, May 2019 and May 2020, the Company's stockholders approved amendments to the 2016 Plan to increase the number of shares authorized for issuance under the 2016 Plan by 1.5 million shares, 7.3 million shares and 8.1 million shares, respectively. As of December 26, 2020, the Company reserved a total of 30.8 million shares of common stock for the award of stock options, RSUs and PSUs to employees, non-employees, consultants and members of the Company's board of directors pursuant to the 2016 Plan, plus any shares subject to awards granted under the 2007 Plan that, after the effective date of the 2016 Plan, expire, are forfeited or otherwise terminate without having been exercised in full to the extent such awards were exercisable, and shares issued pursuant to awards granted under the 2007 Plan that, after the effective date of the 2016 Plan, are forfeited to or repurchased by the Company due to failure to vest. The 2016 Plan has a maximum term of 10 years from the date of adoption, or it can be earlier terminated by the Company's board of directors. The 2007 Plan was canceled; however, it continues to govern outstanding grants under the 2007 Plan. In July 2019, the Company's board of directors approved a new 2019 Inducement Equity Incentive Plan and set the maximum number of shares to be issued at 750,000. The ESPP was adopted by the board of directors in February 2007 and approved by the stockholders in May 2007. The ESPP was last amended by the stockholders in May 2019 to increase the shares authorized under the ESPP to a total of approximately 31.6 million shares of common stock. The ESPP has a 20-year term. Eligible employees may purchase the Company’s common stock through payroll deductions at a price equal to 85% of the lower of the fair market values of the stock as of the beginning or the end of six-month offering periods.

Stock option exercises are settled with newly issued shares of common stock approved by stockholders for inclusion under the 2007 Plan. Amortization of stock-based compensation expense related to stock options in 2020, 2019 and 2018 was insignificant. Employee Stock Purchase Plan The fair value of the ESPP shares was estimated at the date of grant using the following assumptions: Volatility Risk-free interest rate Expected life Estimated fair value December 26, 2020 42% - 97% 0.12% - 1.56% 0.5 years $2.17 - $3.42 Years Ended December 28, 2019 70% - 72% 1.76% - 2.48% 0.5 years $1.64 - $1.77 December 29, 2018 48% - 62% 1.90% - 2.31% 0.5 years $2.47 - $3.13 The Company’s ESPP activity for the following periods was as follows (in thousands): Stock-based compensation expense Employee contributions Shares purchased Restricted Stock Units December 26, 2020 Years Ended December 28, 2019 December 29, 2018 $ $ 6,607 $ 15,346 $ 3,001 4,873 $ 12,052 $ 2,897 5,478 15,992 2,189 The Company granted RSUs to employees and members of the Company’s board of directors to receive shares of the Company’s common stock. All RSUs awarded are subject to each individual's continued service to the Company through each applicable vesting date. The Company accounted for the fair value of the RSUs using the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Amortization of stock- 118 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) based compensation expense related to RSUs in 2020, 2019 and 2018 was approximately $36.1 million, $32.3 million and $29.2 million, respectively. Performance Stock Units Pursuant to the 2016 Plan, the Company has granted PSUs to certain of the Company’s executive officers, senior management and certain employees. All PSUs awarded are subject to each individual's continued service to the Company through each applicable vesting date and if the performance metrics are not met within the time limits specified in the award agreements, the PSUs will be canceled. PSUs granted to the Company’s executive officers and senior management under the 2016 Plan during 2017 and the first half of 2018 are based on the TSR of the Company's common stock price relative to the TSR of the individual companies listed in the SPGIIPTR over the span of one year, two years and three years. The number of shares to be issued upon vesting of these PSUs range from zero to two times the target number of PSUs granted depending on the Company’s performance against the individual companies listed in the SPGIIPTR. The ranges of estimated values of the PSUs granted that are compared to the SPGIIPTR, as well as the assumptions used in calculating these values were based on estimates as follows: Index volatility Infinera volatility Risk-free interest rate Correlation with index Estimated fair value 2018 33% 58% - 59% 2017 33% - 34% 55% - 56% 2.37% - 2.40% 1.41% - 1.63% 0.04 - 0.48 0.10 - 0.49 $14.99 - $19.46 $15.23 - $17.35 PSUs granted to the Company's executive officers and senior management under the 2016 Plan during 2019 and the first quarter of 2020 are based on performance criteria related to a specific financial target over the span of a three-year performance period. These PSUs may become eligible for vesting to begin before the end of the three-year performance period, if the applicable financial target is met. The number of shares to be issued upon vesting of these PSUs are capped at the target number of PSUs granted. Certain other employees were awarded PSUs that will only vest upon the achievement of specific financial and operational performance criteria. In addition, in 2019, one of the Company's executive officers was awarded a PSU that will be eligible to vest if the market price condition is met. The assumptions used in calculating the estimated values of this award granted in fiscal 2019 were based upon Monte Carlo Model Assumptions and estimates as follows: Index volatility Infinera volatility Risk-free interest rate Correlation with index/index component Estimated fair value 2019 N/A 64% - 68% 2.17% - 2.48% N/A $2.08 - $2.89 119 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) The following table summarizes by grant year, the Company’s PSU activity for the year ended December 26, 2020 (in thousands): Outstanding at December 28, 2019 PSUs granted PSUs released PSUs canceled Outstanding at December 26, 2020 Total Number of Performance Stock Units 2,505 1,628 (285) (382) 3,466 2017 2018 199 — (104) (95) — 270 — (121) (40) 109 2019 2,036 — (60) (219) 1,757 2020 — 1,628 — (28) 1,600 Amortization of stock-based compensation expense related to PSUs in 2020, 2019 and 2018 was approximately $6.0 million, $6.1 million and $8.2 million, respectively.

Income Taxes The following is a geographic breakdown of the provision for (benefit from) income taxes (in thousands): Current: Federal State Foreign Total current Deferred: Federal State Foreign Total deferred Total provision for (benefit from) income taxes December 26, 2020 Years Ended December 28, 2019 December 29, 2018 $ $ $ $ $ 494 $ 917 9,606 11,017 $ — $ — (4,982) (4,982) $ 6,035 $ — $ 288 3,046 3,334 $ 369 $ — (740) (371) $ 2,963 $ — 186 6,832 7,018 (546) — (7,127) (7,673) (655) Loss before provision for income taxes from international operations was $37.3 million, $202.2 million and $135.5 million for the years ended December 26, 2020, December 28, 2019 and December 29, 2018, respectively. The provisions for (benefit from) income taxes differ from the amount computed by applying the statutory federal income tax rates as follows: Expected tax at federal statutory rate State taxes, net of federal benefit Research credits Stock-based compensation Change in valuation allowance Foreign rate differential Other Effective tax rate December 26, 2020 Years Ended December 28, 2019 December 29, 2018 21.0 % (0.4)% 1.2 % (1.2)% (16.9)% (6.3)% (0.4)% (3.0)% 21.0 % (0.1)% 1.0 % (2.0)% (19.7)% (0.2)% (0.8)% (0.8)% 21.0 % (0.1)% 1.8 % (0.8)% (18.1)% (2.9)% (0.6)% 0.3 % For 2020, the Company's income tax expense was $6.0 million with effective tax rate of (3.0)%. The difference between the effective income tax rate and the U.S federal statutory rate of 21% to income before income taxes is primarily the result of foreign income taxed at different rates and valuation allowances. The Company recognized an income tax expense of $3.0 million and income tax benefit of $0.7 million in fiscal years 2019 and 2018. The resulting effective tax rates were (0.8)% and 0.3% for 2019 and 2018. The 2019 and 2018 effective tax rates differ from the expected statutory rate of 21%, based on the Company's ability to benefit from its U.S. loss carryforwards, offset by state income taxes, non-deductible stock-based compensation expenses and foreign taxes provided on foreign subsidiary earnings. 121 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Significant deferred tax assets and liabilities consist of the following (in thousands): Deferred tax assets: Net operating losses Research and foreign tax credits Nondeductible accruals Inventory valuation Property, plant and equipment Leasing Liabilities Stock-based compensation Total deferred tax assets Valuation allowance Net deferred tax assets Deferred tax liabilities: Accruals, reserves and prepaid expenses Right of use asset Acquired intangible assets Convertible senior notes Total deferred tax liabilities Net deferred tax liabilities Years Ended December 26, 2020 December 28, 2019 $ $ $ $ $ $ 354,598 $ 126,839 61,871 32,444 5,819 24,261 4,161 609,993 $ (531,923) 78,070 $ — $ (17,515) (24,547) (37,979) (80,041) $ (1,971) $ 301,929 121,065 72,094 31,982 4,601 19,265 3,998 554,934 (484,834) 70,100 (830) (16,261) (34,542) (25,417) (77,050) (6,950) The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. The Company must consider all positive and negative evidence, including the Company's forecasts of taxable income over the applicable carryforward periods, its current financial performance, its market environment, and other factors in evaluating the need for a full or partial valuation allowance against its net U.S. deferred tax assets. Based on the available objective evidence, management believes it is not more likely than not that the domestic net deferred tax assets will be realizable in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the Company has provided a full valuation allowance against its domestic deferred tax assets, net of deferred tax liabilities, as of December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019. To the extent that the Company determines that deferred tax assets are realizable on a more likely than not basis, and an adjustment is needed, that adjustment will be recorded in the period that the determination is made and would generally decrease the valuation allowance and record a corresponding benefit to earnings or other comprehensive income. As of December 26, 2020, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $725.9 million for federal income tax purposes which will begin to expire in 2027 if unused. The Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $555.8 million for state income tax purposes which will begin to expire in the year 2021 if unused. The Company also had foreign net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $674.8 million. 122 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) As of December 26, 2020, the Company also had R&D credit carryforwards of approximately $53.2 million for federal income tax and $56.9 million for state income tax purposes. The federal R&D tax credit will begin to expire in 2023 if unused. State R&D tax credits will carry forward indefinitely. As of December 26, 2020, the Company also had Foreign Tax credit carryforwards of approximately $41.5 million for federal income tax. The foreign tax credit will begin to expire in 2023 if unused. Infinera Canada Inc., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary, has Scientific Research and Experimental Development Expenditures (“SRED”) credits available of $3.1 million to offset future Canadian income tax payable as of December 26, 2020. The Company's Portugal subsidiary has a SIFIDE Credit of $4.6 million to offset future income tax in Portugal payable as of December 26, 2020. Canadian SRED credits will begin to expire in the year 2032 if not fully utilized. The Portugal SIFIDE credits will begin to expire in the year 2021. At December 26, 2020, the Company had federal capital loss carryforwards of $7.6 million. If not utilized, the federal capital loss will expire in 2023. The federal and state net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to significant limitations under Section 382 and Section 383 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and similar provisions under state law. The Tax Reform Act of 1986 contains provisions that limit the federal net operating loss carryforwards that may be used in any given year in the event of special occurrences, including significant ownership changes. The Company has completed a Section 382 review and has determined that none of its operating losses will expire solely due to Section 382 limitation(s). The aggregate changes in the balance of gross unrecognized tax benefits were as follows (in thousands): Beginning balance Tax position related to current year Additions Tax positions related to prior years Additions Reductions Lapses of statute of limitations Ending balance December 26, 2020 December 28, 2019 December 29, 2018 $ 44,092 $ 24,617 $ 19,786 3,213 1,965 2,296 11,494 (625) (243) 57,931 $ 18,212 (542) (160) 44,092 $ 2,981 (40) (406) 24,617 $ As of December 26, 2020, the cumulative unrecognized tax benefit was $57.9 million, of which $40.2 million was netted against deferred tax assets that would have otherwise been subjected with a full valuation allowance. Of the total unrecognized tax benefit as of December 26, 2020, approximately $20.6 million, if recognized, would impact the Company’s effective tax rate. The amount of unrecognized tax benefit could be reduced upon expiration of the applicable statute of limitation. The potential reduction in unrecognized tax benefits during the next 12 months is not expected to be material. As of December 26, 2020, December 28, 2019 and December 29, 2018, the Company had $2.9 million, $1.4 million and $1.2 million, respectively, of accrued interest or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, of which less than $0.5 million was included in the Company’s provision for income taxes in each of the years ended December 26, 2020, December 28, 2019 and December 29, 2018, respectively. The Company’s policy is to include interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within the Company’s provision for income taxes. The Company files income tax returns in the United States, various state jurisdictions and various foreign jurisdictions. As of December 26, 2020, the Company is potentially subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and the relevant state income taxing authorities and other major foreign jurisdictions where the Company conducts business, under the statute of limitations for years 2002 and forward. 123 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) With these jurisdictions and in the United States, it is reasonably possible that there could be significant changes to the Company's unrecognized tax benefits in the next twelve months due to either the expiration of a statute of limitation or a tax audit settlement that will be partially offset by an anticipated tax liability related to unremitted foreign earnings, where applicable. Given the number of years and numerous matters that remain subject to examination in various tax jurisdictions, management is unable to estimate the range of possible changes to the balance of the Company's unrecognized tax benefits. Included in the balance of income tax liabilities, accrued interest and penalties at December 26, 2020 is an immaterial amount related to tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the statute of limitations will expire in various jurisdictions within the next twelve months. On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was enacted and signed into law. The CARES Act includes several provisions for corporations including increasing the amount of deductible interest, allowing companies to carryback certain Net Operating Losses (“NOLs”) and increasing the amount of NOLs that corporations can use to offset income. The aforementioned relief available under the CARES Act did not have a material impact on the Company's provision for income taxes for the fiscal year ended December 26, 2020. Post Tax Reform, the Company and its subsidiaries do not have significant unremitted foreign earnings and the associated withholding and other taxes are not material for the fiscal year ended December 26, 2020. 18. Segment Information Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”). The Company’s CEO reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis, accompanied by information about revenue by geographic region for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. The Company has one business activity as a provider of optical transport networking equipment, software and services. Accordingly, the Company is considered to be in a single reporting segment and operating unit structure. Revenue by geographic region is based on the shipping address of the customer. For more information regarding revenue disaggregated by geography, see Note 4, “Revenue Recognition” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Employee Benefit and Pension Plans Defined Contribution Plans The Company has established a savings plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “401(k) Plan”). As allowed under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, the 401(k) Plan provides tax- deferred salary contributions for eligible U.S. employees. Employee contributions are limited to a maximum annual amount as set periodically by the Internal Revenue Code. The Company made voluntary cash contributions and matched a portion of employee contributions of $2.4 million, $2.7 million and $2.3 million for 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Expenses related to the 401(k) Plan were insignificant for each of the years 2020, 2019 and 2018. In connection with the Company's acquisition of Transmode during the third quarter of 2015, the Company has an ITP pension plan covering its Swedish employees. Commitments for old-age and survivors' pension for salaried employees in Sweden are vested through an insurance policy. Expenses related to the ITP pension plan were $2.7 million for 2020, $2.6 million for 2019 and $2.8 million for 2018. The Company also provides defined contribution plans in certain foreign countries where required by local statute or at the Company's discretion. For the years ended December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019, the Company had $3.5 million and $3.9 million related to post-retirement costs, respectively. Pension Plans Pension and Post-Retirement Benefit Plans As a result of the Acquisition during the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company acquired a number of post- employment plans in Germany, as well as a number of smaller post-employment plans in other countries, including both defined contribution and defined benefit plans. The defined benefit plans expose the Company to actuarial risks such as, investment risk, interest rate risk, life expectancy risk and salary risk. The characteristics of the defined benefit plans and the risks associated with them vary depending on legal, fiscal, and economic requirements.

The gain/loss corridor is equal to 10% of the greater of the pension benefit obligation and the market-related value of assets. Gains and losses in excess of the corridor are generally amortized over the average future working lifetime of the pension plan participants. All components of net periodic benefit cost are recorded in operating expense of the Company's consolidated statements of operations as the impact of the amounts to be recorded in other income and expense is immaterial. The following table sets forth the changes in accumulated other comprehensive income for the Company's benefit plans (pre-tax) (in thousands): Beginning balance Net actuarial loss arising in current year Amortization of net actuarial loss(1) Foreign currency translation gain (loss) Ending balance December 26, 2020 December 28, 2019 $ $ (5,367) $ (8,183) 1,884 — (11,666) $ (5,313) (1,680) 1,638 (12) (5,367) (1) The actuarial loss for the year ended December 16, 2020 was caused primarily by the change in the discount rate. Amounts in accumulated other comprehensive income expected to be recognized as components of net periodic pension cost during fiscal year 2021 is $3.5 million (pre-tax). Assumptions Certain weighted-average assumptions used in computing the benefit obligations are as follows: Discount rate Salary growth rate Pension growth rate Expected long-term rate of return on plan assets December 26, 2020 December 28, 2019 1.05 % 2.25 % 2.00 % 3.93 % 1.35 % 2.25 % 2.00 % 3.93 % Assumptions regarding future mortality are set based on actuarial advice in accordance with published German statistics and experience. These assumptions translate into an average remaining life expectancy in years for a pensioner retiring at age 65: Retiring at the end of the reporting period Male Female Investment Policy 2021 Life Expectancy 20.5 20.0 23.6 The financial position of the Company’s funded status is the difference between the fair value of plan assets and projected benefit obligations. Volatility in funded status occurs when asset values change differently from liability values and can result in fluctuations in costs in financial reporting. The Company’s investment policies and strategies are designed to increase the rate of assets to plan liabilities at an appropriate level of funded status volatility. Asset allocation decisions are recommended by the trustees for the specific plan and agreed to by the Company's management. Investment objectives are designed to generate returns that will enable the plan to meet its future obligations. The Company's management reviews the investment strategy and performance semi-annually and discuss alternatives to manage volatility. 127 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) Basis for Expected Long-Term Rate of Return on Plan Assets The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets reflects the expected returns for each major asset class in which the plan invests and the weight of each asset class in the target mix. Expected asset returns reflect the current yield on government bonds, risk premiums for each asset class and expected real returns which considers each country’s specific inflation outlook. The expected return is set using a low to medium risk profile and to meet the market expectations over a longer period of time to meet the obligations in the future. Fair Value of Plan Assets The following tables present the fair value of plan assets for pension and other benefit plans by major asset category (in thousands): Cash Equity fund Insurance contracts Pension fund Total plan assets at fair value Cash Equity fund Insurance contracts Mixed fund Pension fund Total plan assets at fair value Valuation Techniques As of December 26, 2020 Fair Value Measured Using Level 2 Level 1 Total 1,060 $ — — — 1,060 $ — $ 48,942 27,394 165 76,501 $ 1,060 48,942 27,394 165 77,561 As of December 28, 2019 Fair Value Measured Using Level 2 Level 1 Total 895 $ — — — — 895 $ — $ 43,540 15,149 615 9,578 68,882 $ 895 43,540 15,149 615 9,578 69,777 $ $ $ $ The following describes the valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of the assets shown in the table above. Equity funds are invested in traded securities and are recorded at market value as of the balance sheet date. Insurance contracts are recorded at cash surrender value of the policies. Mixed fund and pension fund are valued at the amounts as provided by the insurance companies who manage the funds and represent fair market value at the date of the balance sheet. Transfers Between Levels Any transfers between levels in the fair value hierarchy are recognized as of the end of the reporting period. No material transfers between levels occurred during the year ended December 26, 2020. Future Contributions In fiscal 2021, the Company expects to make contributions of $5.1 million to cover benefit payments to plan participants. 128 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) Cash Flows Estimated future benefit payments under the Company's pension plans as of December 26, 2020 are as follows (in thousands): 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 2026 to 2030 $ $ $ $ $ $ 5,121 4,333 3,872 4,302 6,003 22,904 129 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) 20.

The quarters for fiscal years 2020 and 2019 were 13-week quarters. 130 INFINERA CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued) In December of 2018, the Company implemented a restructuring initiative (the “2018 Restructuring Plan”) as part of a comprehensive review of the Company's operations and ongoing integration activities in order to optimize resources for future growth, improve efficiencies and address redundancies following the Acquisition. These integration initiatives and restructuring initiatives under the 2018 Restructuring Plan were substantially completed in 2019. During 2020, the Company implemented a new restructuring initiative (the "2020 Restructuring Plan") that was primarily intended to reduce costs and consolidate its operations. As of December 26, 2020, the identified cost reduction initiatives under the 2020 Restructuring Plan were substantially completed For more information on the Company's restructuring plans, see Note 10, “Restructuring and Other Related Costs” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Effective December 30, 2018, the Company adopted Topic 842, using the alternative modified transition method. Results for the reporting periods beginning December 30, 2018 are presented under Topic 842, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the Company's historical accounting under ASC Topic 840, “Leases.” The company incurred lease impairment costs included in restructuring expenses. Effective December 29, 2019, the Company adopted Topic 326 on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment at the beginning of the first quarter of 2020.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE None. ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Attached as exhibits to this Form 10-K are certifications of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), which are required in accordance with Rule 13a-14 of the Exchange Act. This “Controls and Procedures” section includes information concerning the internal controls and controls evaluation referred to in the certifications. Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures An evaluation was performed by our management, with the participation of our CEO and our CFO, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d -15(e) under the Exchange Act). Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of December 26, 2020, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective. Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls Our management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to its costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of controls to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in business conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures. 131 Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting During the three months ended December 26, 2020 there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting which were identified in connection with management’s evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We are continually monitoring and assessing the COVID-19 pandemic situation to minimize the impact, if any, on the design and operating effectiveness on our internal controls. Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Our management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 26, 2020, the end of our fiscal year. Management based its assessment on the framework established in the 2013 Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“2013 COSO framework”). Management’s assessment included evaluation of elements such as the design and operating effectiveness of key financial reporting controls, process documentation, accounting policies, and our overall control environment. This assessment is supported by testing and monitoring performed by our internal audit and finance personnel utilizing the 2013 COSO framework. Based on our assessment, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of the end of our fiscal year 2020 to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of fiscal year 2020 has been audited by Ernst & Young, LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report, which is included elsewhere herein.
