<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On March&nbsp;22, 2017, Viavi Solutions Inc. (&#147;Viavi&#148;) sold an additional $60 million aggregate principal amount of 1.00% Senior
Convertible Notes due 2024 (the &#147;Additional Notes&#148;) in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the &#147;Securities Act&#148;). The Additional Notes were
issued upon the exercise by the initial purchasers of an over-allotment option granted by Viavi. Viavi previously issued $400 million aggregate principal amount of 1.00% Senior Convertible Notes due 2024 on March&nbsp;3, 2017 (the &#147;Initial
Notes&#148; and, together with the Additional Notes, the &#147;Notes&#148;). The issuance of the Additional Notes brings the total aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding to $460 million. The Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated
March&nbsp;3, 2017 (the &#147;Indenture&#148;), between Viavi and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The sale of the
Notes generated net proceeds of approximately $451.2 million after deducting the initial purchasers&#146; discounts and commissions and the estimated offering expenses payable by Viavi. Viavi intends to use net proceeds from the offering for
refinancing, together with its cash on hand, its outstanding 0.625% Senior Convertible Notes due 2033 (the &#147;2033 Notes&#148;), including opportunistically repurchasing 2033 Notes in the future, as well as for general corporate purposes. In
addition, Viavi used $50 million of the net proceeds from the offering of the Initial Notes to repurchase shares of its common stock pursuant to its existing stock repurchase program. The repurchase of common stock occurred concurrently with the
offering of the Initial Notes in privately negotiated transactions with institutional investors through one or more of the initial purchasers of the Notes or their respective affiliates as Viavi&#146;s agent. The purchase price of the common stock
repurchased in such transactions was the closing price per share of Viavi&#146;s common stock on the date of the pricing of the offering. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Notes mature on March&nbsp;1, 2024, unless earlier converted or repurchased. The Notes are Viavi&#146;s general senior unsecured
obligations and rank equal in right of payment with all of Viavi&#146;s existing and future unsecured, unsubordinated indebtedness, including the 2033 Notes, and senior in right of payment to any indebtedness that is contractually subordinated to
the Notes. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Viavi will pay interest on the Notes at an annual rate of 1.00% payable in cash semiannually in arrears on March&nbsp;1 and
September&nbsp;1 of each year, beginning September&nbsp;1, 2017. The holders of the Notes may convert the Notes into cash and shares of Viavi&#146;s common stock, if any, based upon an initial conversion rate of 75.6229 shares of Viavi&#146;s common
stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (which is equal to an initial conversion price of approximately $13.22 per share of Viavi&#146;s common stock, representing an approximately 32.5% conversion premium based on the closing price of $9.98 per
share of Viavi&#146;s common stock on February&nbsp;27, 2017), subject to adjustment as provided for in the Indenture. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Notes may be
converted at any time on or prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding December&nbsp;1, 2023, in multiples of $1,000 principal amount, at the option of the holder only under the following circumstances: (i)&nbsp;on any
date during any </P>

calendar quarter beginning after June&nbsp;30, 2017 (and only during such calendar quarter) if the closing price of Viavi&#146;s common stock was more than 130% of the then current conversion
price for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the 30 consecutive trading-day period ending on the last trading day of the previous calendar quarter, (ii)&nbsp;upon the occurrence of specified corporate events, (iii)&nbsp;if
Viavi is party to a specified transaction, a fundamental change or a make-whole fundamental change (each as defined in the Indenture), or (iv)&nbsp;during the five consecutive business-day period immediately following any 10 consecutive trading-day
period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes for each day during such 10 consecutive trading-day period was less than 98% of the product of the closing sale price of Viavi&#146;s common stock and the applicable
conversion rate on such date. During the periods from, and including, December&nbsp;1, 2023 until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders of the Notes may convert the Notes regardless of the
circumstances described in the immediately preceding sentence. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Holders of the Notes may require Viavi to repurchase for cash all or a
portion of the Notes upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture) at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date
of repurchase. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Indenture provides for customary events of default, including payment defaults, breaches of covenants, failure to pay
certain judgments and certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, may be declared immediately due and
payable, subject to certain conditions set forth in the Indenture. These amounts automatically become due and payable if an event of default relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization occurs. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Viavi offered and sold the Notes to the initial purchasers in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by<BR> Section&nbsp;4(a)(2)
of the Securities Act, for resale by the initial purchasers to qualified institutional buyers (as defined in the Securities Act) pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A under the Securities Act. Viavi relied on these
exemptions from registration based in part on representations made by the initial purchasers in the purchase agreement executed in connection with the sale of the Notes. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The foregoing description of the Indenture and the Notes does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
full text of the Indenture and the Form of the Notes (a form of which is attached as an exhibit to the Indenture), filed as Exhibit 4.1 and Exhibit 4.2, respectively, hereto and incorporated herein by reference. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Neither the Notes nor the common stock that may be issued upon conversion thereof will be registered under the Securities Act. Neither the
Notes nor the common stock that may be issued upon conversion thereof may be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. This Current Report on <FONT
