&#147;Board&#148;) of JDS Uniphase Corporation (the &#147;Company&#148;) approved and adopted an Executive Change of Control Severance Plan (the &#147;Change of Control Plan&#148;), which provides certain severance and other benefits to eligible
executives whose employment is terminated as a result of or following a change of control of the Company. The Change of Control Plan supersedes and replaces any prior policies and practices applicable to the eligible executives relating to severance
or vesting acceleration upon a change of control of the Company, however the Change of Control Plan is subordinate to, and does not supersede, any individual written agreement with an eligible executive that provides for severance and/or change of
control benefits and that is in existence at the time of adoption of the Change of Control Plan. Instead, any benefits payable or receivable by an eligible executive under the Change of Control Plan will automatically be reduced by the amount of the
benefits payable or receivable under any such individual written agreement. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">All United States employees of the Company and its

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Change of Control Plan provides that in the event of a qualifying termination, each of the eligible executives will be entitled to receive
(i)&nbsp;one year of accelerated vesting of unvested stock options and other securities or similar incentives held at the time of termination, (ii)&nbsp;a lump sum payment equal to six months base salary (less applicable tax and other withholdings)
and (iii)&nbsp;reimbursement of COBRA premiums for up to one year. A qualifying termination under the Change of Control Plan is any involuntary termination without cause, any voluntary termination for good reason, or any termination due to
disability or death, in each case occurring upon or within six months following a change of control of the Company, as such terms are defined in the Change of Control Plan. </FONT></P> <P
