English term or phrase: a 44% premium to 3Com's closing price
Under the terms of the agreement, private-equity firm Bain Capital will take a stake of more than 80% in Massachusetts-based 3Com. Huawei Technologies (China) is purchasing the rest. The deal was struck at $5.30 a share, a 44% premium to 3Com's closing price. However the price represents only a modest premium on the valuation earlier this year of H3C, the former joint venture between Huawei and 3Com for which 3Com paid $US882 million to buy out Huawei's 49 percent share.
