Explanation of Responses:

Represents the number of shares of Infinera Corporation ("Company") common stock subject to a performance share award originally granted on March 9, 2023, which accelerated to vest at 100% of the target shares granted and was converted into a right to receive cash compensation, subject to applicable tax withholding, with respect to all vested shares as a result of the merger pursuant to the previously announced Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 27, 2024, by and among Nokia Corporation ("Nokia"), Neptune of America Corporation and the Company, referred to as the "Merger Agreement".

The PSA Award has three performance periods, consisting of one-, two- and three- year periods beginning with the last trading day in the Company's fiscal 2023 and ending with the Company's fiscal 2024, 2025 and 2026 respectively (each, a "Performance Period"), and with one-third of the target number of shares under the PSAs allocated to each such Performance Period. Each PSA represents a contingent right to receive one share of Company common stock.

5. Effective February 27, 2025, given the Company's TSR was positive and in the 79th percentile relative to the TSR of the companies listed on the Russell 3000 Index for the fiscal 2024 Performance Period, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company ("Compensation Committee") certified that 196% of the target number of shares, or 47,365 shares of Company common stock, subject to the 2024 Performance Period under the PSA Award became eligible to vest ("2024 Eligible Shares").

Accordingly, effective February 27, 2025, given the Company's TSR was positive and in the 81st percentile relative to the TSR of the companies listed on the Russell 3000 Index for the fiscal 2025 and 2026 shortened Performance Periods, the Compensation Committee certified that 200% of the target number of shares subject to each such performance period or a total of 96,668 shares of Company common stock under the PSA Award became eligible to vest ("2025-2026 Eligible Shares").

8. 100% of the 2025-2026 Eligible Shares vest on March 5, 2027, subject to the Reporting Person's continued service to the Company, or any successor company, through the applicable vesting date.
