Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On March 12, 2010, Nortel Networks Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release concerning its financial results for the fourth quarter of 2009 and full year 2009. Such press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and furnished accordance with Item 2.02 of Form 8-K.

Item 8.01

Other Events

As part of Nortel’s ongoing cost reduction activities, on March 11, 2010, Nortel Networks Corporation (NNC), Nortel Networks Limited (NNL), Nortel Networks Inc. and Nortel Networks Capital Corporation each filed a Form 15 related to their respective debt securities and all related guarantees, as applicable, reflecting the automatic suspension of reporting requirements under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Act) as there were less than 300 holders of each series of securities as of January 1, 2010. NNL also intends to terminate the registration of its common stock under the Act shortly and suspend its obligations to file periodic reports with the SEC, including Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K. Following the deregistration of its common shares, NNL will continue to be a “reporting issuer” under Canadian securities laws and, as a result, will remain subject to continuous disclosure requirements, including the filing of annual and quarterly financial statements and managements’ discussion and analysis of financial results under applicable Canadian securities laws. NNC will continue to be a “reporting issuer” under both Canadian and U.S. securities laws and will continue to remain subject to applicable continuous disclosure requirements.
