WHEREAS, each of the above-captioned cases is a purported class action governed by 

the provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (“PSLRA”); 

WHEREAS, the three above-captioned substantially similar class actions have all been 

deemed related, along with a fourth class action titled Berger v. Alvarion, Ltd., et al., Case No. C 

07-02601-JSW, (see Docket for Meir v. Alvarion Ltd., et al., Case No. C 07-00374-JSW (“Meir 

Docket”) No. 62); 

WHEREAS, on April 9, 2007, three motions to consolidate all four actions and for 

appointment as Lead Plaintiff pursuant to Section 21(D) of the PSLRA were filed in the firstfiled Meir case (Meir Docket Nos. 15, 17 and 21); 

WHEREAS, on August 14, 2007, Rahul Saraf and the Harel Group, which consists of the 

Harel Insurance Company Ltd., filed a Stipulation re Appointment of Lead Plaintiffs and Lead 

Counsel (Meir Docket No. 51), in which two of the lead plaintiff movants requested 

consolidation of the four class actions and agreed to serve as Co-Lead Plaintiffs in this action;1

WHEREAS, on September 20, 2007, plaintiff Paul Berger filed a Notice of Voluntary 

Dismissal of his separate action, Berger v. Alvarion Ltd., et al. (Case No. C 07-02601-JSW); 

WHEREAS, all named plaintiffs in each of the above three remaining related cases agree 

that the cases should be consolidated, and defendants Alvarion Ltd., Zvi Slonimsky, Tvzi 

Friedman and Dafna Gruber likewise agree that these three remaining cases should be 

consolidated (see Stipulation re Appointment of Lead Plaintiffs and Lead Counsel, Meir Docket 

No. 51; and Defendants’ Joinder in Plaintiffs’ Request for Consolidation, filed September 4, 

2007, Meir Docket No. 63); 

WHEREAS, the three cases are scheduled for Case Management Conferences (“CMCs”) 

on September 21, 2007 at 1:30 p.m., but no lead plaintiff has been appointed who can speak for 

the plaintiff class, and thus all the parties agree that the CMCs would be premature at this time;

 On September 20, 2007, movant Harel Insurance Co. Ltd. withdrew its application to be 

appointed lead plaintiff. See Noticeof Withdrawal, filed September 20, 2007, Meir Docket No. 

71. However, the remaining signatories to this stipulation, movants Saraf and Khan, continue to 

seek appointment as co-lead plaintiffs. See id.
