This Report on Form 6-K is hereby incorporated by reference into (i) the Registration Statements on Form F-3, Registration Nos. 333-160443, 333-164822, 333-165753, 333-166203 and 333-171438 of Orckit Communications Ltd.

On September 16, 2013, the Company's ordinary shares were transferred from the main list of the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (the "TASE") to the maintenance list of the TASE for failure to satisfy the minimum shareholders' equity condition for continued listing on the main list. As of June 30, 2013, the Company's capital deficiency was approximately $11.5 million. The TASE informed the Company that if the conditions for renewing trade on the TASE's main list will not be satsified within 24 months, the Company’s shares will be delisted on September 16, 2015. Trading of securities on the TASE's maintenance list is carried out once per day, in a limited format. This could have a negative impact on the trading price of Company's shares on the TASE.
