We were incorporated in Massachusetts in 1979. Our corporate headquarters are

We market our products through multiple distribution channels. We have a direct
sales presence throughout North America, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East,
South Africa and the Asia Pacific region. We also have agreements in place with
many distributors, systems integrators, resellers and OEMs in certain areas
of the world. These agreements, subject to certain terms and conditions, enable
these companies to market and resell certain of our systems and software. In
2003, we expanded our distribution capabilities through both new and enhanced
partner and channel relationships. Also in 2003, as a result of our acquisitions
of LEGATO and Documentum, we established additional distribution relationships.
Competition
We compete with many companies in the markets we serve, certain of which offer
a broad spectrum of IT products and services and others which offer specific
information storage or management products or services. We believe that most
of these companies compete based on their market presence, products, services
or price. Certain of these companies also compete by offering storage-related
products or services, together with other IT products or services, at minimal
or no additional cost in order to preserve or gain market share.
