PART II
INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Item 3. | Incorporation of Documents by Reference. |
The following documents and information previously filed with the Commission by Marvell are hereby incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement unless otherwise noted:
| Marvells Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2013, filed with the Commission on March 29, 2013. |
| Marvells Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on February 21, 2013. With respect to such Current Report on Form 8-K, Marvell specifically excludes from incorporation such information that has been furnished and not filed pursuant to Item 2.02, Item 7.01 and/or Item 9.01. |
| The description of the Common Shares contained in Marvells Registration Statement on Form 8-A as filed with the Commission on June 22, 2000 pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). |
All documents subsequently filed by Marvell pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement that indicates that all of the Common Shares offered have been sold or that deregisters all of such shares then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date of the filing of such documents. For the purposes of this Registration Statement, any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed document that also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement. Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.
Item 6. | Indemnification of Directors and Officers. |
Set forth below is a description of certain provisions of the Companies Act of 1981 of Bermuda (the Companies Act), Marvells Memorandum of Association, as presently in effect (the Memorandum of Association), and Marvells Third Amended and Restated Bye-laws (the Bye-laws), as such provisions relate to the indemnification of its directors and officers. This description is intended only as a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the applicable provisions of the Companies Act, the Memorandum of Association and the Bye-laws, which are incorporated herein by reference.
The Companies Act permits Marvell to indemnify its directors or officers in their capacity as such in respect of any loss arising or liability attaching to them by virtue of any rule of law in respect of any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust of which a director or officer may be guilty in relation to Marvell other than in respect of his own fraud or dishonesty.
The Bye-laws provide that every director, officer and committee member be indemnified against any liability, loss, damage or expense incurred or suffered in such capacity, subject to limitations imposed in the Companies Act.
The Bye-laws further provide that each shareholder agree to waive any claim or right of action against any director or officer, in respect of any failure to act or any action taken by such director or officer in the performance of his duties with or for Marvell. The waiver does not extend to claims arising under United States federal securities laws or any claims or rights of action arising from the fraud or dishonesty of the director or officer.
Marvell has agreed to indemnify certain current and former directors and officers of Marvell and current and former officers and employees of its subsidiary, Marvell Semiconductor, Inc. (MSI), for reasonable costs and expenses incurred by such individuals in connection with certain civil actions and governmental investigations relating to Marvells historic stock option granting practices. Marvells agreement to pay reasonable fees and costs is subject to each individuals agreement to reimburse Marvell in the event that it is subsequently determined by Marvell or a court of law that the individual is not entitled to indemnification under the Bye-laws or MSIs bye-laws or applicable law.
Marvell has entered into indemnification agreements with certain officers that may be sufficiently broad to permit indemnification of such officers for liabilities (including reimbursement of expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act.
Marvell has agreed to indemnify Dr. Sehat Sutardja, Marvells Chairman of the Board of Directors, President and Chief Executive Officer, for reasonable fees and expenses that he may incur in challenging potential state and federal tax liabilities under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code in connection with his exercise of an option for Marvells common shares.

24.1 | Power of Attorney (included in signature page to this Registration Statement) |
Item 9. | Undertakings. |
(a) The Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the Calculation of Registration Fee table in the effective registration statement;
(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to the information in this Registration Statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(b) The Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrants annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plans annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

(c) | Searches of the Register of Companies at the office of the Registrar of Companies are not conclusive and it should be noted that the Register of Companies does not reveal: |
(i) | details of matters which have been lodged for filing or registration which as a matter of general practice of the Registrar of Companies would have or should have been disclosed on the public file but have not actually been registered or to the extent that they have been registered have not been disclosed or do not appear in the public records at the date and time the search is concluded; or |
