LISLE, Ill.-Tellabs Inc. and Ciena Corp. canceled the special stockholder meetings scheduled for Sept. 9 to vote on the proposed merger of the companies.
The meetings are expected to be held in mid-November.
The rescheduling accommodates Securities and Exchange Commission review of a revised filing for the merger and permits stockholders time to receive and review the revised joint proxy and prospectus, said the companies. A new record date for stockholders eligible to vote at the meetings will be set following SEC review of the revised proxy materials.
