Explanation of Responses:
(1)	Each restricted stock unit ("RSU") represents a contingent right to receive one share of common stock of Infinera Corporation (the "Company").
(2)	On February 15, 2018, Dr. Welch was granted a PSU award for a target number of 45,833 shares of common stock that could become eligible to vest in three equal separate installments, subject to the achievement of certain performance criteria in each of the three different performance periods. The shares are eligible to vest based on the TSR performance of the Company in each performance period relative to that of the companies that comprise the S&P Networking Index. The performance objective related to this award was partially achieved for the third performance period, as determined by the Company's Compensation Committee per the terms of the original grant. As a result, 14,550 shares of common stock underlying this award will vest on May 5, 2021, subject to Dr. Welch's continued service to the Company through such date.
