Item 8.01 Other Events. The 2024 annual meeting of stockholders (the "2024 Annual Meeting") of Ribbon Communications Inc. (the "Company") is expected to be held on June 4, 2024. The Company expects to publish additional details regarding the exact time, location and matters to be voted on at the 2024 Annual Meeting in the Company's definitive proxy statement for the 2024 Annual Meeting.
