Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
     On December 13, 2006, Finisar Corporation (“Finisar”) received a written Staff Determination notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) stating that Finisar is not in compliance with Nasdaq’s Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14) because it did not timely file its report on Form 10-Q for the second quarter ended October 29, 2006 and, therefore, that its common stock is subject to delisting from the Nasdaq Global Select Market. Finisar issued a press release on December 14, 2006 disclosing its receipt of this notice from Nasdaq. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
     On December 8, 2006, Finisar filed Form 12b-25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission reporting that it had delayed filing its Form 10-Q report pending the completion of a review of its historical stock option grant practices being conducted by the Audit Committee of its Board of Directors. Finisar plans to file its Form 10-Q report as soon as practicable following the conclusion of the review. The information in Finisar’s Form 12b-25 is incorporated by reference herein.
     Finisar will request a hearing before a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel to review the Staff Determination. There can be no assurance that the panel will grant Finisar’s request for continued listing. Pending a decision by the hearing panel, Finisar’s common stock will continue to be traded on the Nasdaq Global Select Market.
