Item 8.01 Other Events.
On October 9, 2014, Finisar Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that on October 29, 2014, it will redeem all of the Company’s outstanding 5.0% Convertible Senior Notes (the “Convertible Notes”) due 2029 (CUSIP Numbers 31787AAJ0 and 31787AAK7). The Convertible Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture (the “Indenture”), dated as of October 15, 2009, by and among the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A, as trustee for the Convertible Notes (the “Trustee”). The Trustee distributed a Notice of Redemption to all registered holders of the Convertible Notes on October 9, 2014.
As of October 9, 2014, there was approximately $40,015,000 aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes outstanding. Upon completion of the redemption, no Convertible Notes will remain outstanding. Unless earlier converted by the holders into shares of Finisar’s common stock prior to the redemption date, the Convertible Notes will be redeemed for cash at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date. The Convertible Notes are being redeemed pursuant to the Company’s optional redemption right and related provisions in the Indenture. Any cash required by Finisar for the redemption will come from cash on hand.
The information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute a notice of redemption of the Convertible Notes. Holders of the Convertible Notes should refer to the notice of redemption delivered by the Trustee to the registered holders of the Convertible Notes.
The press release is as attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
