Actual cash incentive payments awarded under the 2018 Executive
VPP will range from 0% to 150% of an eligible executives target
incentive opportunity (TIO) depending on (1)the

Target
) compared to the Companys annual operating plan
(AOP) and (2)the achievement of a non-GAAP
operating profit objective (the Profitability
Target
) compared to the AOP. Payments under the 2018

Maletira, the Companys Chief Financial Officer, will participate
in the 2018 Executive VPP as Corporate Executives. For Corporate
Executives, the Revenue Target and Profitability Target will be
calculated based on Viavis company-wide performance and will be

clarify certain provisions of the Plan. The Plan is effective
immediately. The Plan provides benefits to Eligible Employees (as

the Plan).

Changes to the Plan include:

Extension of the Plans expiration date from December14, 2018
to June20, 2020;
