Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 5, 2008, VeriSign, Inc. (the “Company”), through a wholly owned special purpose entity (the “Seller”), and PR III Middlefield Road, LLC (the “Purchaser”) entered into a purchase and sale agreement (the “Sale Agreement”) with respect to the Company’s facilities at 675 East Middlefield Rd., and 685 East Middlefield Rd., located in Mountain View, California (collectively, the “Property”), which constitute approximately 159,000 square feet of the Company’s approximately 290,000 square foot Mountain View headquarters.

Under the terms of the Sale Agreement, the Seller will receive total consideration of $49.0 million for the sale of the Property, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including the Purchaser’s completion of its due diligence review. Until the Purchaser has completed its due diligence review, the Purchaser may elect to terminate the Sale Agreement for any or no reason.

At the time of closing of the sale of the Property, which is expected later this month, the Company and the Purchaser will be required to enter into a separate lease agreement (the “Lease”). Under the Lease, the Company will rent the Property from the Purchaser for an initial term of approximately 30 months, commencing on the date the Purchaser takes title to the Property, with an option to extend the Lease for five years upon the termination of the initial term. The Company’s total obligations under the initial term are approximately $12.5 million. The Company has guaranteed the obligations of the Seller in connection with the Sale Agreement.
