Dear Juniper Stockholders,
Juniper Networks, Inc. has filed its annual proxy statement in anticipation of our 2015 annual meeting of stockholders on May 19, 2015. We know that proxy season is a very busy time and we are committed to ensuring that our proxy communications and related materials are transparent and reflect our accountability to stockholders.
The purpose of this note is to thank you in advance for your continued support of Juniper Networks and bring your attention to two important proposals in this year’s proxy.
| ● |
Proposal #3 seeks a vote in favor of our new 2015 equity incentive plan. We are requesting approval of a new equity incentive plan because the current 2006 equity incentive plan expires in 2016. |
| ● |
Proposal #5 seeks a non-binding advisory vote in favor of our executive compensation program. Known as a “say on pay” proposal, the vote is an opportunity for Juniper Networks’ board and compensation committee to review stockholder feedback as it makes future executive compensation decisions. |
The attached supplementary materials will provide you with more information regarding our new equity incentive plan proposal and our say on pay proposal. We recognize your support of Juniper Networks is essential to our future growth. We hope we can count on your vote.
