On April 18, 2000, PMC-Sierra, Inc. (the "Company") filed its Registration
Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-35024), covering 4,794,065 shares of the
Company's Common Stock to be sold by certain stockholders of the Company. On May
8, 2000, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the ("Commission") declared the
Registration Statement effective.
The Registration Statement was filed in order to register shares of the
Company's Common Stock issued to the former stockholders of AANetcom, Inc.
("AANetcom"), which was acquired by the Company on March 3, 2000.
Pursuant to Rule 477 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, the Company respectfully requests that the Commission withdraw the
Company's Registration Statement on Form S-3. The Company is requesting the
withdrawal of the Registration Statement because, pursuant to the terms of the
Declaration of Registration Rights under the Agreement and Plan of Merger
between the Company and AANetcom, the Company's obligations to maintain the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement expired on March 3, 2001.
Accordingly, the Company hereby de-registers the 1,921,202 shares of its
Common Stock registered pursuant to the Registration Statement remaining unsold
thereunder.
