Item 3.01.

Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

 

(b) As previously reported by Marvell Technology Group Ltd. (“Marvell”) in its Form 8-K filed on June 10, 2005, Marvell notified the Nasdaq National Market (“Nasdaq”) on June 6, 2005 that as a result of a director’s retirement from the Board of Directors, Marvell would not be in compliance with Nasdaq Rule 4350(d)(2)(A), which requires that the Audit Committee for a company listed on the Nasdaq National Market have a minimum of three members.  In accordance with Nasdaq Rule 4350(d)(4)(B), Marvell had been provided with a cure period until the earlier of Marvell’s next Annual General Meeting or June 10, 2006, whichever is earlier, in order to regain compliance with Nasdaq Rule 4350(d)(2)(A).  Marvell announced on August 10, 2005 the appointment of a new director who will be a member of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors and meets the independence requirements under the Nasdaq listing rules and has informed Nasdaq of same.  This appointment satisfies Nasdaq Rule 4350(d)(2)(A) and Marvell therefore is now in compliance with Nasdaq Rule 4350(d)(2)(A).

 

Item 5.02.

Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers.

 

(d) On August 9, 2005, Arturo Krueger was appointed to Marvell’s Board of Directors by the Board.  Mr. Krueger will serve as Chairman of the Governance Committee and as a member of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.  There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Krueger and any other persons pursuant to which Mr. Krueger was selected as a director, and there are no related party transactions between Marvell or any of its subsidiaries and Mr. Krueger that are reportable under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.  Marvell issued a press release on August 10, 2005 announcing the appointment. The full text of Marvell’s press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
