Item 5. Other Events and Required FD Disclosure
Effective May 5, 2004, William A. Owens resigned as a member of the board of directors of Polycom, Inc., in connection with his recent appointment as President and Chief Executive Officer of Nortel Networks Corporation. As a result, Mr. Owens will not be standing for re-election to Polycom’s board of directors at its 2004 annual meeting of stockholders to be held on Wednesday, June 2, 2004, at 10:00 a.m. Pacific time, at Polycom’s corporate headquarters. Therefore, instead of nominating a slate of nine directors as previously disclosed in Polycom’s proxy statement dated April 26, 2004 for its 2004 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2004 Proxy Statement”), the Board of Directors of Polycom will be nominating a slate comprised of the eight remaining nominees set forth in the 2004 Proxy Statement.
