On February 12, 2010, Zhone Technologies, Inc., or Zhone, received a notice of resignation from Steven Levy resigning from Zhone’s Board of Directors, effective immediately. Mr. Levy was a Class I Director whose term would otherwise have expired at Zhone’s 2011 annual meeting of stockholders. Mr. Levy was also a member of Zhone’s Audit Committee. Zhone does not believe that Mr. Levy’s resignation was the result of any disagreement with Zhone on any matter relating to its operations, policies or practices. Zhone does not intend to fill the vacancy on the Board of Directors created by Mr. Levy’s resignation at this time, but may nominate a replacement for election at its 2010 annual meeting of stockholders.
