EXPLANATORY NOTE
On or about March 29, 2017, Allot Communications Ltd. (the “Company”) first distributed a proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) and a proxy card relating to its Annual General Meeting of Shareholders to be held on April 27, 2017 (the “Meeting”) to all shareholders of record, as of the record date for the Meeting.
A supplement to the Proxy Statement (the “Supplement”) is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1. The Supplement contains an additional agenda item relating to the Meeting proposed by certain shareholders, jointly holding approximately 2.5% of the Company's outstanding shares as of the record date for the Meeting and the response of the Company's Board of Directors (the “Board”). Because the requesting shareholders hold in the aggregate more than 1% of the Company’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares, the Company is required, under the Israel Companies Law, 5759-1999, to add the proposed additional agenda item to the Meeting's agenda, as set forth in the Supplement.
The requesting shareholders are solely responsible for the content of their proposal. The statement by the Board in opposition of this shareholder proposal is included in the Supplement. The Board recommends a vote AGAINST this proposal and stands by its recommendations as set forth in the Company's proxy statement dated March 29, 2017, which is available at the website of the Securities and Exchange Commission at https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1365767/000117891317000949/exhibit_99-1.htm.
A copy of a revised proxy card containing the proposed additional agenda item is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.2.
This Form 6-K is incorporated by reference into the Company’s Registration Statements on Form S-8 (File Nos. 333-140701, 333-149237, 333-159306, 333-165144, 333-172492, 333180770, 333-187406, 333-194833, 333-203028, 333-210420 and 333-216893) pertaining to the 2016 Incentive Compensation Plan of Allot Communications Ltd.
