PART III - NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why the Form 10-K, 11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period. (Attach Extra Sheets if Needed)
As previously reported by Orckit (see, for example, Orckit's report on Form 6-K submitted to the Commission on February 16, 2012 and the section entitled “Terms of the Arrangement” contained in Orckit’s Proxy Statement, dated March 7, 2012, included in Orckit’s report on Form 6-K submitted to the Commission on March 7, 2012), Orckit is in the process of finalizing a proposed arrangement with its Series A note holders and Series B note holders. On May 1, 2012, Orckit published a notice convening a meeting of its Series A note holders, which is scheduled to be held on May 9, 2012, to approve the arrangement. Orckit plans to publish a notice shortly convening a meeting of its Series B note holders to approve the arrangement. A few open issues remain in the negotiations between Orckit and the representatives of its note holders regarding revisions to the trust agreements relating to the Series A notes and Series B notes in order to implement the arrangement. Orckit and the representatives agreed to endeavor to resolve the remaining issues in advance of the note holder meetings. The results of these negotiations and these note holder meetings could have a significant impact on Orckit’s financial position and disclosure. Accordingly, Orckit was unable to file its Annual Report on Form 20-F (including its financial statements) in a timely manner without unreasonable effort and expense. Orckit anticipates filing its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2011 within the regulatory fifteen-day extension period.
PART IV - OTHER INFORMATION

If the answer is no, identify report(s).

x
Yes
o
No
|
(3)
|
Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?
|
|
|
If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.
