On November 7, 2003, 3Com Corporation (3Com) completed the sale of certain properties in Santa Clara, California.  These properties, consisting of approximately 876,000 square feet of office and manufacturing space and related furniture and fixtures, previously had been used by 3Com in its administrative, customer service, research and development, and manufacturing activities.

 

Net proceeds from the sale were approximately $62 million in cash.  The impact of the sale, which will be reflected in 3Com’s results of operations for the second quarter of fiscal 2004, is not expected to be significant.
