Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

On November 30, 1999, Solectron  Corporation  completed its acquisition of SMART
Modular Technologies,  Inc (SMART). Under the terms of the agreement, each share
of SMART  common  stock was  exchanged  for .51 of a share of  Solectron  common
stock.  Solectron issued  approximately  23.1 million shares of Solectron common
stock and assumed all stock options held by SMART employees. The acquisition was
structured as a tax-free  reorganization  and is being accounted as a pooling of
interests.  Prior to the acquisition,  no material  relationship existed between
SMART and  Solectron  or any of its  affiliates,  any  director  or  officer  of
Solectron, or any associate of any such director or officer.

SMART is a leading designer and manufacturer of memory modules and memory cards,
embedded  computers and I/O products.  It is expected  that the  acquisition  is
another  step in  enabling  Solectron  to expand its  service  capabilities  and
infrastructure  as it continues to transform  itself into a global  supply-chain
facilitator.
