Item 3.02 |
|
Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities. |
On January 31, 2011, Finisar Corporation (the Company) entered into privately-negotiated
agreements with existing holders of the Companys 5% Convertible Senior Notes due 2029 (the
Notes) to exchange $8.0 million principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest
on such Notes to February 4, 2011, for approximately 749,400 shares of the Companys common stock,
based on the conversion price of the Notes (approximately $10.68 per share), plus approximately
36,000 additional shares. Following these exchanges, approximately $49.9 million aggregate
principal amount of the Notes will remain outstanding.
The shares of common stock to be issued in the exchange transactions will not be registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Act). The Company will issue the shares in a
transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Act pursuant to the provisions of
Section 3(a)(9) of the Act, as securities exchanged by the issuer solely with an existing security
holder. No commission or other remuneration was paid or given, directly or indirectly, for
soliciting the exchange. The shares of common stock to be issued in the exchange transactions,
upon such issuance, will be unrestricted securities.
