This excerpt taken from the CIEN DEF 14A filed Jan 26, 2007. HOUSEHOLDING
OF PROXY STATEMENT AND ANNUAL REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS
Shareholders residing in the same household who hold their stock
through a bank or broker may receive only one Annual Report to
Shareholders and Proxy Statement in accordance with a notice
sent earlier by their bank or broker. This practice of sending
only one copy of proxy materials is called
“householding.” This saves Ciena money in printing and
distribution costs. This practice will continue unless
instructions to the contrary are received by your bank or broker
from one or more of the shareholders within the household.
If you hold your shares in “street name” and reside in
a household that received only one copy of the Annual Meeting
materials, you can request to receive a separate copy in the
future by following the instructions provided on the voting
instruction card sent by your bank or broker. If your household
is receiving multiple copies of the annual report and proxy
statement, you may request that only a single set of materials
be sent by checking the appropriate
box on the voting instruction card sent by your bank or broker.
Alternatively, you may send written instructions to ADP,
Householding Department, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, NY 11717.
Your instructions must include the name of your bank or broker
and your brokerage account number.
Shareholders of record will receive one Proxy Statement and
Annual Report for each account. Copies of our Annual Report to
Shareholders and Proxy Statement are available by contacting
Ciena’s Investor Relations at
(888) 243-6223,
or write us at Ciena Corporation, 1201 Winterson Road,
Linthicum, MD 21090, Attention: Investor Relations.
