EXPLANATORY NOTE
On July 26, 2013, the Registrant filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (Registration Statement No. 333-190180) (the “Form S-8”) registering a total of 674,655 shares of the Registrant’s shares, CHF 1.03 par value per share (the “Shares”), to be issued to participants under the Power-One, Inc., Amended and Restated 2004 Stock Incentive Plan and the Power-One, Inc., Amended and Restated 1996 Stock Incentive Plan. We are amending the Form S-8 because it included a typographical error. The address provided for ABB Holdings Inc., our agent for service in the United States (“Holdings”), on the cover page did not reflect that Holdings had, earlier in July 2013, moved to the address now provided.
