Dear Ms. Jacobs:
Pursuant to Rule 477 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), Dot Hill Systems Corp. (the "Registrant") hereby requests that the above-referenced Registration Statement, filed with the Commission on November 22, 2002 (the "Registration Statement"), be withdrawn effective immediately. The grounds upon which the Registrant is making this application for withdrawal are that at this time the Registrant lacks information regarding the selling stockholder under the Registration Statement necessary to complete this filing. The Registration Statement has not been declared effective and no securities have been sold pursuant to the Registration Statement.
The Registrant also requests that all fees paid to the Commission in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement be credited to the Registrant's account with the Commission for future use.
If you should have any questions regarding this application, please contact Thomas A. Coll or Jason R. Conger of Cooley Godward LLP at (858) 550-6000.
Sincerely,
DOT HILL SYSTEMS CORP.
