Item 8.01 Other Events.
On September 19, 2011, we issued a press release announcing that we plan to offer, subject to market and other conditions, 3,000,000 ordinary shares in an underwritten public offering. We expect to grant the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 450,000 ordinary shares in connection with the planned public offering. All of the ordinary shares in the offering will be sold by Mellanox Technologies, Ltd. The planned public offering is being made by means of a prospectus and prospectus supplement pursuant to an automatic universal shelf registration statement previously filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Form S-3. The press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
In addition, in connection with the planned public offering, we have updated the disclosure regarding the audit committee of our board of directors and the composition of the committees of our board of directors included under the section titled “Corporate Governance and Board of Directors Matters” in our Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 11, 2011. A copy of the updated disclosure is attached as Exhibit 99.2 to this Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
All statements included or incorporated by reference in this Current Report on Form 8-K, other than statements or characterizations of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations, estimates and projections about our industry and business, management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by us, all of which are subject to change. Forward-looking statements can often be identified by words such as “projects,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “predicts,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” “could,” “potential,” “continue,” “ongoing,” similar expressions and variations or negatives of these words. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future results and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause our actual results to differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statement. More information about the risks, uncertainties and assumptions that may impact our business is set forth in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on August 4, 2011, and our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 7, 2011.
