PROXY STATEMENT

---------------------

THE ANNUAL MEETING OF JUNO STOCKHOLDERS

GENERAL

You were sent this proxy statement in connection with the solicitation of
proxies by and on behalf of the Board of Directors of Juno Lighting, Inc.
("Juno") for use at the annual meeting of Juno stockholders and any adjournments
or postponements thereof. The annual meeting will be held on Tuesday, April 24,
2001, at 10:00 a.m. local time, at Juno's headquarters at 1300 South Wolf Road,
Des Plaines, Illinois 60018.

MATTERS TO BE CONSIDERED

At the annual meeting, you will be asked to consider and vote on:

- The election of the board of five directors to serve until the 2002
annual meeting of stockholders or until their successors are elected
and qualified; and

- Such other matters as may properly come before the annual meeting or
any adjournment or postponement thereof.

You may also be asked to vote on a proposal to adjourn or postpone the
annual meeting, which adjournment or postponement could be used for the purpose,
among others, of obtaining a quorum or allowing additional time for the
soliciting of additional votes.

RECORD DATE

The Juno board has fixed March 13, 2001 as the record date for the
determination of the Juno stockholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote
at the annual meeting. Accordingly, only Juno stockholders of record at the
close of business on such date are entitled to notice of and to vote at the
annual meeting and any postponements or adjournments thereof. As of the record
date, Juno's outstanding capital stock comprised shares of its Common Stock, par
value $0.001 per share ("common stock"), and shares of its Preferred Stock, par
value $0.001 per share ("preferred stock"), including shares of its Series A
Convertible Preferred ("Series A Preferred) and shares of its Series B
Convertible Preferred ("Series B Preferred"). As of the record date, 2,469,915
shares of Juno common stock were outstanding and entitled to vote at the annual
meeting and 1,063,500 shares of preferred stock were outstanding which were
entitled to 4,652,374 votes.

VOTING AT THE ANNUAL MEETING

Quorum Requirement. The presence, in person or by properly executed proxy,
of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Juno stock entitled to
vote on the record date is necessary to constitute a quorum at the annual
meeting.

Voting Rights. Each share of Juno common stock outstanding on the record
date entitles its holder to one non-cumulative vote as to each matter that may
properly come before the annual meeting. Each share of Juno preferred stock
outstanding on the record date entitles its holder to one non-cumulative vote as
to each matter that may properly come before the annual meeting for each whole
share of Juno common stock that would be issuable to such holder upon the
conversion of all the shares of Juno preferred stock held by such holder on the
record date.

Fremont Investors I, LLC ("Fremont Investors"), which obtained control of
Juno in 1999 in a recapitalization transaction is (together with its affiliates)
entitled to cast over 98% of the votes to be cast by holders of the preferred
stock and over 73% of all votes entitled to be cast at the annual meeting. As a
result, Fremont Investors and its affiliates, if they choose to do so, may elect
all of Juno's directors and control the vote as to any other matter that may
properly come before the annual meeting or any adjournment or postponement
thereof.

Vote Required. The following votes are required to approve matters to be
considered and voted upon at the annual meeting:

- Election of Directors. Directors are elected by a plurality of the
vote of the shares of common stock and preferred stock voting together.
The nominees who receive the most votes will be elected. Abstentions,
withheld votes and broker non-votes will not be taken into account and
will have no effect in determining the outcome of the election.

When electing directors, holders of common stock and preferred stock
have non-cumulative voting rights. This means that the holders of a
majority of the shares of common stock and preferred stock taken
together, represented and entitled to vote at a meeting where a quorum
is present, can elect all of the directors if they choose to do so. In
such an event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to
elect any person or persons to the board of directors.

- All Other Matters. Other than the election of directors, all matters
brought before the annual meeting will be decided by a vote of the
holders of a majority of the shares of common stock and preferred stock
taken together and present in person or represented by proxy, unless
the matter is one upon which a different vote is required by law or by
Juno's certificate of incorporation.

Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes. Abstentions, broker non-votes and
withheld votes will be counted for purposes of determining the presence or
absence of a quorum for the transaction of business at the annual meeting. A
"non-vote" occurs when a nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not
vote on a proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary voting power
and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner.

PROXIES

If you are a Juno stockholder, you may use the enclosed proxy card if you
are unable to attend the annual meeting in person or wish to have your shares
voted by proxy even if you do attend the annual meeting.

You may revoke any proxy given by you pursuant to this solicitation by:

- delivering to the Secretary of Juno, at or before the annual meeting, a
written notice bearing a later date than the proxy, which notice, by
its terms, revokes the proxy;

- duly executing a subsequent proxy relating to the same shares and
delivering it to the Secretary of Juno at or before the annual meeting;
or

- attending the annual meeting and voting in person (although attendance
at the annual meeting by a stockholder will not in and of itself revoke
a previously delivered proxy).

You should address any written notice of revocation and other
communications regarding the revocation of Juno proxies to the Secretary of Juno
at 1300 South Wolf Road, Des Plaines, Illinois 60018. In all cases, the latest
dated proxy revokes an earlier dated proxy, regardless of which method is used
to give or revoke a proxy, or if different methods are used to give and revoke a
proxy. For such notice of revocation or later proxy to be valid, however, it
must actually be received by Juno prior to the vote of the Juno stockholders at
the annual meeting. If your broker has been instructed to vote your shares, you
must follow directions received from your broker in order to change your vote.

INFORMATION CONCERNING THE SOLICITATION OF PROXIES

The enclosed proxy card is solicited on behalf of the Juno board of
directors. The cost of soliciting proxies will be borne by Juno. In addition to
solicitation by mail, directors, officers and employees of Juno, none of whom
will receive additional compensation for such solicitations, may solicit proxies
in person, by telephone, by telegram, by personal interview, by e-mail or by
facsimile. Juno will request banks, brokerage houses and other custodians,
nominees and fiduciaries to forward its solicitation materials to the beneficial
owners of the Juno common shares they hold of record and obtain authorization
for, and appropriate certification in connection with, the execution of proxy
cards. Juno will reimburse these record holders for customary mailing expenses
incurred by them in forwarding these materials.

Except as set forth above, neither Juno nor, to the best of Juno's
knowledge, any person acting on its behalf has retained any other person to make
solicitations or recommendations to security holders on its behalf in connection
with the solicitation of proxies.

JUNO BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Juno's amended and restated bylaws provide that Juno's Board of Directors
shall consist of not less than three nor more than nine members. Currently,
Juno's Board of Directors consists of six members. During the last fiscal year,
there were six meetings of the full Board of Directors.

COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Juno has three committees of the Board of Directors. They are the audit,
stock option and compensation committees. Juno does not have a standing
nominating committee.

The audit committee comprises three directors. The audit committee oversees
the creation and implementation of internal policy and controls and is
responsible for the hiring of Juno's outside independent auditors and the review
of their findings. During the last fiscal year, the audit committee met four
times. Pursuant to the listing standards applicable to Juno, whose common stock
is listed on The SmallCap Market of The Nasdaq Stock Market, the directors
serving on Juno's audit committee must meet certain independence standards by no
later than June 14, 2001. Juno expects to comply with the applicable standards
prior to such date.

The stock option committee comprises two directors. The stock option
committee is responsible for granting and administering stock options and stock
appreciation rights ("SARs") under Juno's Stock Option Plan, effective December
2, 1993 (the "1993 Stock Option Plan"), and the 1999 Stock Award and Incentive
Plan (the "1999 Stock Option Plan" and, together with the 1993 Stock Option
Plan, the "Stock Option Plans"). During the last fiscal year, there were no
formal meetings of the stock option committee, which instead took all of its
actions by unanimous written consent in lieu of a special meeting of the
committee.

The compensation committee comprises two directors. The compensation
committee oversees Juno's executive compensation policy. During the last fiscal
year, there were no formal meetings of the compensation committee, which instead
took all of its actions by unanimous written consent in lieu of a special
meeting of the committee.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Board of Directors has adopted an Audit Committee Charter, and a copy
of it is attached to this proxy statement as Appendix A. The Audit Committee has
reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements of Juno for the year
ended November 30, 2000 (the "Audited Financial Statements") with Juno's
management. In addition, the Audit Committee has discussed with
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, Juno's independent auditors, the matters required to
be discussed by Statements of Accounting Standards No. 61 (Codification of
Statements on Auditing Standards).

The Audit Committee has also received the written disclosures and the
letter from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP required by Independence Standards Board
Standard No. 1 and has discussed with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP its
independence from Juno. The Audit Committee has also discussed with Juno's
management and with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP such other matters and received
such assurances from them as it deemed appropriate.

Based on the foregoing review and discussion and relying thereon, the Audit
Committee recommended to Juno's Board of Directors the inclusion of the Audited
Financial Statements in Juno's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
November 30, 2000.

CHANGE OF CONTROL BENEFIT AGREEMENTS

Juno entered into Change of Control Benefits Agreements with Messrs.
Bordfeld, Bilek, Chemers, Huber and Tomsovic as well as with Mr. Scott Roos,
Juno's Vice President of Product Management and Development, and Mr. Jacques
LeFevre, Vice President and President of Juno's Indy Lighting subsidiary. These
agreements provided for severance and other benefits in the event of a change of
control of Juno and in the event of certain terminations of employment beginning
upon the change of control and ending upon six months' notice from Juno, but no
earlier than December 31, 2000. Juno gave such six months' notice on October 3,
2000, and consequently these agreements will terminate on April 3, 2001. Some
benefits were to be provided immediately upon the change of control. Severance
benefits for termination of employment after the change of control will be
payable only if an executive's employment is terminated by Juno without "cause"
or by the executive for "good reason". For this purpose, good reason includes
material adverse changes in duties, reduction in salary or a required move of
more than 40 miles. "Cause", for these purposes, means commission of certain
felonies, substance abuse and serious misconduct or neglect in the course of
duties.

12
The merger of Jupiter Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and
wholly-owned subsidiary of Fremont Investors, with and into Juno pursuant to an
Agreement and Plan of Recapitalization and Merger dated March 26, 1999 by and
among Fremont Investors, Jupiter Acquisition Corp. and Juno (the "Merger")
constituted a change of control for purposes of these agreements. As a result,
each of the officers specified above received benefits that included (i)
continuation of employment with (A) a 5% minimum annual base salary increase,
(B) no adverse change in duties, (C) no required move of more than 40 miles, and
(D) participation in benefit and welfare plans; (ii) a transaction bonus of
$150,000; (iii) a performance bonus based on projected operating income for
fiscal 1999, prorated for the portion of the year elapsed prior to a change of
control, and multiplied by 115%; and (iv) all unvested stock options became
vested and exercisable.

The principal benefits that would be provided as severance benefits upon
termination by the executive for good reason or by Juno other than for cause or
disability include (i) a lump sum payment equal to the greater of (x) six
months' base salary or (y) the base salary through December 31, 2000; (ii) a
payment equal to forfeited retirement benefits, if any; and (iii) continuation
of medical, dental, life insurance, and other fringe benefits for the greater of
(x) six months or (y) until December 31, 2000. In addition, the agreements
provide reimbursement of legal fees for an executive's good faith enforcement of
the agreements, regardless of whether the executive prevails. The benefits are
capped at the maximum amount payable without triggering excise tax under the
golden parachute provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.

INDEBTEDNESS OF MANAGEMENT

In connection with the purchase by Mr. Bilbrough, Juno's President and
Chief Executive Officer, of shares of the Company's common stock, the Company
made a loan to him in the principal amount of $199,968.33. All of the proceeds
of this loan were used to pay a portion of the purchase price of the shares.
Subject to certain terms and conditions, Mr. Bilbrough will not owe any interest
on this debt on or before May 22, 2010 and will owe 18% per annum thereafter on
any remaining balance. As of the record date, the outstanding balance of Mr.
Bilbrough's debt was $199,968.33.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

Currently, Messrs. Jaunich and Williamson comprise the compensation
committee of Juno's Board of Directors. Mr. Williamson is not an executive
officer of Juno. Mr. Jaunich serves as Juno's Chairman of the Board. Mr. Jaunich
is President and Chief Executive Officer of Fremont Investors and Mr. Williamson
is Vice President and Treasurer of Fremont Investors. Messrs. Jaunich and
Williamson are each Managing Directors of Fremont Partners, L.P. As a result of
the Merger, Fremont Investors obtained control of the Company in June 1999.

Juno and Fremont Partners L.L.C. entered into a management services
agreement at the effective time of the Merger, pursuant to which agreement
Fremont Partners L.L.C. renders certain management services in connection with
Juno's business operations, including strategic planning, finance, tax and
accounting services. Juno pays Fremont Partners L.L.C. an annual management fee
of $325,000 to render such services.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE AND STOCK OPTION COMMITTEE REPORTS ON EXECUTIVE
COMPENSATION

Juno's executive compensation policy is designed to maintain a competitive
compensation program in order to attract and retain well qualified management
and to provide management with the incentive to accomplish Juno's financial and
operating objectives. Compensation for executives generally consists of cash
compensation in the form of annual base salary and performance-based bonuses and
long-term incentive compensation in the form of stock options.

Juno's executive compensation program is administered by the compensation
committee of the Board of Directors and, with respect to stock options and SARs
under Juno's Stock Option Plans, by the stock option committee. See "JUNO'S
BOARD OF DIRECTORS - Committees of the Board of Directors", above.

In setting cash compensation levels for executive officers the compensation
committee considers the performance of Juno and of the individual officer,
including the assumption of new duties by the officer. While Juno's overall
financial performance, particularly operating income, is taken into account,
base salaries for executive officers are primarily determined by the
compensation committee's subjective assessment of the executive's individual
performance.

11
14
In addition to base salary, the compensation committee has an incentive
bonus plan applicable to Messrs. Bilbrough, Bordfeld, Bilek, Chemers, Huber,
LeFevre, Roos and Tomsovic, as well as Mr. Daniel Macsherry, Vice President
Business Development, Mr. Richard Stam, Juno's Vice President of Sales and Mr.
Reed Powers, Vice President and President of Juno's Advanced Fiberoptic
Technologies subsidiary. The incentive bonus plan provides for the payment of
cash bonuses to these executives pursuant to a formula based on levels of Juno's
EBITDA. Juno paid bonuses earned in fiscal 2000 pursuant to this plan to Messrs.
Bilbrough, Bordfeld, Bilek, Chemers, Huber, Stam, Roos and Tomsovic.

In determining the salary to be paid to the Chief Executive Officer in any
fiscal year, in addition to the factors set forth above, which are applicable to
all executive officers, the compensation committee also compares base salaries
of presidents and chief executive officers of other companies of similar size
and engaged in manufacturing businesses similar to Juno's. Some but not all of
the companies used for salary comparison purposes are companies included in the
peer group of companies for which cumulative total return information is
provided in the "Performance Graphs" section below. Although the compensation
committee takes into account all of the factors described above in determining
an appropriate base salary for Mr. Bilbrough, it does not engage in any
particular weighting of these factors (other than the emphasis placed on
individual performance). Juno's success in meeting its financial goals is one of
the factors that the compensation committee considers in determining the Chief
Executive Officer's base salary. It should be noted that Mr. Bilbrough does not
participate in compensation committee discussions or decisions regarding his
compensation.

Under Juno's Stock Option Plans, stock options have been awarded to certain
key employees, including Juno's executive officers. All currently outstanding
stock options were granted with an exercise price equal to or greater than the
market price of the common stock on the date of grant and vest over a period of
time. This approach is designed to encourage the creation of stockholder value
over the long term since the full benefit of the compensation package generally
cannot be realized unless stock price appreciation occurs over a number of
years. The stock option committee determines the size of awards of stock options
and SARs to executives based on similar factors as are used to determine base
salaries.

In addition to salary, stock options and SARs, Juno's compensation package
includes matching and discretionary contributions to a 401(k) plan, medical,
life insurance and other benefits.

Finally, the compensation committee reviews the possible effect on Juno of
the limitations on deductibility of executive compensation under Section 162(m)
of the Internal Revenue Code. The compensation committee does not believe that
such section will be applicable to Juno in the foreseeable future but will
review Juno's compensation practices as circumstances warrant.

the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended (the "Exchange Act").

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires Juno's officers and directors,
and persons who own more than 10% of Juno is common stock, to file reports of
ownership and changes in ownership of such securities with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Officers, directors and greater-than-10% beneficial owners
are required to furnish Juno with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.
Based solely upon a review of the copies of the forms furnished to Juno and/or
written representations from certain reporting persons that no other reports
were required, Juno believes that all Section 16(a) filing requirements
applicable to its officers, directors and greater-than-10% beneficial owners
during or with respect to the year ended November 30, 2000 were met, except that
Mr. Froy was not timely in filing one report.

RELATIONSHIP WITH INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

Juno has selected PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PWC") as its principal
independent auditors for the current fiscal year. PWC has served in that
capacity for the past nine fiscal years.

A representative of PWC is expected to be present at the annual meeting and
will be offered the opportunity to make a statement, if desired, and will be
available to respond to appropriate questions. Juno has been advised by PWC that
no member of the firm has or had any financial interest, either direct or
indirect, in Juno or any of its subsidiaries during the time period that it has
served in the capacity of independent auditors for Juno, and that it has no
connection with Juno or any of its subsidiaries in any capacity other than as
public accountants.

assure compliance with laws and regulations and Juno's policies.

In carrying out its responsibilities, the audit committee shall perform the
following functions:

1. Make an annual recommendation to the Board of Directors for the
appointment of independent auditors to audit the books, records and
accounts of the Corporation.

2. Review with management and the independent auditors the terms of the
engagement of such auditors, including the scope and timing of the
audit and any other services rendered by the independent auditors.

3. Review with management and the independent auditors the Corporation's
policies and procedures with respect to internal auditing, accounting
and financial controls.

4. Review with management and the independent auditors the Corporation's
financial statements, the audit results and reports and any
recommendations made by the auditors with respect to changes in
accounting procedures and internal controls.

5. Review the fees paid to the independent auditors for audit and
non-audit services and evaluate the impact of non-audit services on the
independent auditor's independence.

6. Review reports from the Corporation's independent auditors and
financial officers regarding compliance by management with legal and
regulatory requirements and the Corporation's policies relating to
ethics, conflicts of interest and disbursements of funds.

7. Receive from the independent auditors a formal written statement
delineating all relationships between the independent auditors and the
Corporation (consistent with Independence Standards Board Standard 1).

8. Perform such other duties or functions deemed appropriate by the Board
of Directors.

The independent auditors are ultimately accountable to the Board of
Directors and the audit committee.

The audit committee shall have the powers and rights necessary or desirable
to fulfill the responsibilities set forth above, including the power and right
to consult with legal counsel. The audit committee is authorized to communicate
directly with the Corporation's financial officers, employees and independent
auditors as it deems necessary or appropriate.
