Note: This Amendment No. 1 to the Report on Form 8-K dated November 1, 2004 and filed by the Company on November 4, 2004 (the “Report”) is being filed to recategorize the information disclosed in the Report and originally filed (or to be filed by amendment) under Items 2.01 and 9.01 of Form 8-K to Item 8.01. Subsequent to filing the Report and after further review, the Company determined that it was not necessary to make any filings with respect to the transaction disclosed in the Report under Items 2.01 and 9.01 and that it would be more appropriate to provide the information contained in the Report under Item 8.01. The disclosure contained in the Report is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety as set forth below.

On November 1, 2004, UTStarcom, Inc. and UTStarcom Canada Company, a Nova Scotia company and a wholly owned subsidiary of UTStarcom, Inc.
