Item 8.01 Other Events.

On March 8, 2010, Oclaro, Inc. (the "Company") publicly issued a press release with a statement regarding the United States Department of Commerce's ruling on Zhongxing Telecommunications Equipment Corporation and its subsidiary, ZTE Kangxun Telecommunications Ltd.  (collectively, "ZTE"). That press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.    In the press release, the Company acknowledged that the United States Department of Commerce had published a "final rule" amending the Export Administration Regulations to add four entities to the "Entity List" maintained by the Department for actions contrary to the national security and foreign policy interests of the United States, including ZTE.   The Company noted that these amendments are effective immediately.  ZTE purchases multiple products from the Company.   The Company is currently reviewing the impact of this action by the Department of Commerce on the Company's ability to continue to ship products to ZTE. The Company intends to fully comply with the Department’s final rule.

The Company also stated that, based on products sold to ZTE prior to the action by the United States Department of Commerce, revenues from ZTE are currently projected to exceed 10% of the Company's total revenues in the Company's third fiscal quarter of 2016. The Company further stated that it currently expects its results for the third fiscal quarter to be at the low end of the guidance ranges it provided on February 2, 2016.

This description of the Company's press release made public on March 8, 2016 is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Company's press release dated March 8, 2016, which is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1.
