EXPLANATORY NOTE
On March 18, 2013, Alvarion Ltd. (“Alvarion”) issued a press release and furnished a related Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K (the “Original Form 6-K”) announcing that the record date and effective date for the previously-reported 1-for-10 reverse stock split with respect to all of its outstanding ordinary shares would be April 1, 2013 and April 2, 2013, respectively.
In the press release that was attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the Original Form 6-K, Alvarion noted that upon execution of the reverse split, a “D” will be placed on its stock’s ticker symbol for 20 business days, as had been the practice of NASDAQ.
NASDAQ has subsequently informed Alvarion that it will not be placing a “D” on Alvarion’s ticker symbol following the effectiveness of the reverse stock split, as it is no longer NASDAQ’s practice to do so.
This amended Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K/A is being furnished solely to update the information contained in the Original Form 6-K (in the press release attached thereto and incorporated by reference therein) as it relates to Alvarion’s ticker symbol following the reverse stock split.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized.
