   Note:
IBM continues to provide service for the 3745 and 3746 controllers consistent with normal IBM Technical Services service plans and guidelines, which is typically five years after the end of marketing date. While IBM plans are subject to change at IBM's sole discretion, IBM has no current plans to end service for these products before 2010. In accord with the statement of intent, IBM Japan announced on March 26,2008 that it will terminate normal maintenance contracts on the 3745 and 3746 controllers on December 31, 2010. However, extended service contracts will still be available on a case by case basis. IBM Japan is the only marketing unit within IBM to announce a specific date for end of service. All other countries in the region as well as in Europe, the Middle East and the Americas are unaffected by the announcement in Japan. All statements regarding IBM's future direction or intent are subject to change or withdrawal without notice, and represent goals and objectives only. When IBM announces end of service for these products, all existing 3745 and 3746 service contracts will be honored.
