NORTEL, CISCO REACH AGREEMENT FOLLOWING NETSPEED BUY -- From Research Triangle Park, N.C. today, Nortel said it has agreed to transfer its equity position in NetSpeed Inc. to Cisco Systems, Inc. (Cisco), as part of Cisco's acquisition of the Austin, Tex.-based data networking company, subject to various closing conditions, including approval under the Hart Scott Rodino Anti-Trust and Improvements Act. Nortel and Cisco signed a letter of agreement to extend Nortel's existing OEM agreement with NetSpeed for distribution of DSL-related products.
