(Symbios), a Delaware corporation. STATEMENT OF INTENT It is IBM's intention to do business with Suppliers who remain competitive in providing IBM with leading-edge technology at favorable prices on acceptable terms and conditions. Accordingly, from time to time, IBM intends to assess Suppliers' competitiveness in terms of pricing, continuity of supply, quality improvement, and cost reduction, and to notify Supplier if IBM determines that the Supplier is not competitive with its fully qualified competitors so that the Supplier can remedy the situation. 1.0 Product In return for the prices paid by IBM under this Agreement, Symbios shall provide IBM with materials, products, components, object code, documentation, spare parts and/or related services (Products) according to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Product Specification and Price List (PSPL) which is an Attachment to this Agreement, and Work Authorizations issued under Section 3.0 below. 2.0 Term and Termination This Agreement shall commence on the date of execution by the parties and shall continue in full force and effect for a period of [*] unless earlier terminated as provided in this Agreement. Either party may terminate this Agreement for material breach of the other party upon [*] written notice, provided that such breach has not been cured within such [*] period. 3.0 Work Authorization Only a Work Authorization issued by IBM or its subsidiaries (i.e. a Purchase Order or other document or transaction defined in the PSPL as a Work Authorization), in either electronic or hard copy form, provides authorization to Symbios to perform any work or produce any products under this Agreement. Only procurement personnel of IBM or its subsidiaries have the authority to issue Work Authorizations or direct work activity under the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 4.0 Most Favored Customer The prices provided by Symbios to IBM under this Agreement and attached PSPL's will not [*].

IBM will then have [*] after original notification to place orders and Supplier shall use reasonable efforts to deliver such Products(s) before the withdrawal date or upon mutually agreed upon deliver terms. 1 6.0 Symbios Representations/Warranties 6.1 Representations and Warranties: Symbios represents and warrants: (i) it has the right to enter into this Agreement; (ii) Symbios' performance of this Agreement will not violate the terms of any license, contract agreement, note or other obligation to which Symbios is a party or any statute, law, regulation or ordinance to which Symbios is subject, including, without limitation, all health, safety and environmental statutes, laws, regulations and ordinances (iii) at the time of execution, no claim, lien, or action is pending or threatened against Symbios or its subsidiaries or parent company (and to the best of Symbios' knowledge after reasonable inquiry, Symbios' suppliers or affiliates) which would have a materially adverse impact on IBM's or its subsidiaries', or their respective distributors' or customers' use of the Products. Symbios will provide prompt written knowledge if subsequent action occurs; (iv) that, as of the date of this Agreement, the Product does not infringe any patent, trademark, copyright or other intellectual property right of a third party; (v) that (a) neither the Products contain nor are any of the Products manufactured using ozone depleting substances including, without limitation, chloroflurocarbons, halons, methyl chloroform and carbon tetrachloride; and (b) the Products do not contain any hazardous or carcinogenic materials or chemicals; (vi) each of the Products will not cause personal injury when used for its intended use; and (vii) all Products provided to IBM under this Agreement are new and do not contain anything used or reconditioned. 6.2 Product Warranty: Symbios warrants that from the date of shipment of the Product and for the period of time specified in the applicable PSPL, all Products provided to IBM are free from defects in material and workmanship, and will conform to all of the agreed upon specifications. This warranty does not apply to any Product which has been misused (including static discharge, improper installation, repair, or accident), neglected, or modified, or which Symbios is not capable of testing under those test conditions that were used with the manufacturing and testing processes during the original manufacturing of the Product. Supplier's sole obligation to IBM for a Product failing to meet this Product warranty, and as mutually agreed to by the parties, is to replace or repair the Product or to issue IBM a credit for the purchase price of the Product, but only if (i) the failure has occurred within the warranty period, (ii) Symbios has received written notice of the warranty claim, (iii) IBM has returned the Product to Symbios under Symbios' Return Material Authorization (RMA) procedure, and (iv) Symbios has reasonably verified that the Product is defective. Symbios warrants a replacement or repaired Product for the unexpired term of the warranty for the defective Product, or for an extended warranty period as mutually agreed to by the parties.

For the Products under this Attachment, LSI will not substitute FRUs, even if such FRUs are equal or better to those originally approved by IBM, unless expressly agreed to by IBM in writing. LSI shall ship FRUs for returned parts within [*] of receipt. All FRUs shall be upgraded to the latest EC level, single-packed and single-labeled. For the purposes of evaluating LSI's performance, as it relates to FRU orders, LSI will be measured against the following criteria. LSI scores are calculated on a monthly basis and are used to compare LSI to other similarly situated suppliers and the awarding of business. Nothing in this section shall relieve Supplier of any obligations in the Agreement (including this Attachment).
CRITERION TARGET - --------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------- On Time Performance [*] at IBM's Facility On time Orders [*] Past Due [*] Emergency Orders Received by Customer within [*] by Customer; [*] receipt by Customer [*] of PO Issuance within [*] Inbound Packaging Quality [*] of FRUs error free Early Shipments [*] FRUs received at IBM earlier than [*] to scheduled due date
In any calendar month in which LSI fails to meet the above performance criteria specified in this section, LSI will respond to IBM with an agreed upon action plan within [*] of notification by IBM demonstrating its ability to achieve the required measurements. LSI's failure to successfully execute an action plan within an agreed upon time frame, may, in addition to other remedies in the Agreement (including this Attachment) and at law, result in substantial or complete reduction of new business awards from IBM. IBM will obtain RMA (Returned Material Authorization) from LSI prior to shipment of returned FRUs, subject to LSI promptly providing such RMA to IBM upon request. LSI will acknowledge receipt of 5 FRUs within [*] of receipt, and such acknowledgment shall include a report regarding any shortages, overages or damages alleged to have occurred in transit. LSI will reimburse IBM at the current FRU price for FRUs that are stripped, stolen, lost, damaged or unaccounted for, except for those reported to IBM upon initial receipt of the returned FRUs. LSI will provide a packing slip with all return shipments of unrepairable FRUs to IBM which specify LSI's name, IBM part numbers being shipped, quantity of each part number being shipped, and the relevant Purchase Order number.

5.2 Work Authorization Acceptance. LSI shall accept Work Authorizations issued by IBM provided such Work Authorizations comply with the terms and conditions of this Attachment. LSI shall confirm receipt of each Work Authorization and, if LSI does not object to such Work Authorization within [*] of receipt and identify the reasons of non-compliance with this Attachment, then such Work Authorization will be deemed to have been accepted by LSI. 7 IBM may provide [*] estimated forecast for any quantities of Product that may be required. LSI will use reasonable efforts to respond to such forecast within [*]. ANY PRODUCT QUANTITIES CITED IN OR IN SUPPORT OF THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING THIS ATTACHMENT) ARE PRELIMINARY ONLY AND SHALL NOT IN ANY WAY BE CONSTRUED AS A COMMITMENT AND ARE NON-BINDING. IBM MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY AS TO THE QUANTITY OF PRODUCTS THAT IT WILL PURCHASE, IF ANY. 5.3 Product Allocation. LSI will ensure proper management and operational controls are present to provide for an equitable and proportional allocation of capacity, resources, commodities, tooling and any other items required to execute this Attachment. In the event of a non-LSI controlled shortage of any items necessary to satisfy the requirements of LSI internal (i.e., LSI branded products) and external customers, the order of precedence for said allocation will be; (i) the acknowledged purchase orders, (ii) pending purchase orders, and (iii) system forecasts from all affected parties submitted and on record for the month in which the shortage became known to LSI. [*]. Non-LSI-controlled shortages are those events that occur in the industry at-large. Shortages caused by LSI actions (e.g. commodity purchase orders not placed, internal or external LSI customer demand increase which LSI accepts) will not relieve LSI of its obligation to meet IBM's accepted Work Authorizations and will use reasonable efforts to meet forecasted demands, including the associated flexibility terms set forth in this Attachment. LSI will promptly notify IBM in writing that such a shortage has occurred, the expected duration of said shortage, and the impact upon the monthly forecast in use at that time. LSI will include in this notification that IBM is receiving its proportional share of all LSI resources and that no LSI internal or external customer has received preferential treatment in the allocation of resources. Notwithstanding the above, (a) IBM shall have first priority to all components, subassemblies or services supplied by suppliers that IBM has directed to or otherwise presented to LSI provided they are deemed acceptable by LSI and such suppliers are not current suppliers to LSI; or such suppliers may be current suppliers to LSI provided the supplies provided by suppliers are those that have been previously allocated to IBM over and above those supplies previously allocated to LSI; (b) any IBM or IBM subsidiary supplied components, subassemblies or services shall only be used on Products hereunder, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the parties, and (c) LSI will use reasonable efforts to mitigate the impact to IBM of all shortages, regardless of their nature or cause. 6.0 Product Replacements IBM and LSI will jointly establish a process to replace Products for situations identified by IBM that are essential for IBM to maintain a positive relationship with its customer and are not related to any Product defects or warranty claims.

Once approved, such document shall be incorporated herein by reference. 7.2 On-Site Product Inspections. LSI's responsibilities hereunder shall include comprehensive quality controls, testing and inspection of the Products and all components and subassemblies thereof IBM may also inspect the Products at LSI facilities with reasonable advance notice and perform additional inspection and testing of all Products delivered to customers, and may refuse to accept Products that do not conform to all specifications, warranties, and/or other requirements. 8 7.3 Use of NDF Products. "No-Defects-Found Product" ("NDF-Product") shall mean any Product that has been returned to LSI as defective, but after comprehensive analysis and testing, the Product was found by the parties not to be defective in any manner. LSI agrees that NDF Products shall not be used in any Products, except in spare parts. LSI further agrees that any NDF Product that has been used in a Spare Part, and then subsequently returned and found to be an NDF Product again, will never be used hereunder, even as a Spare Part. However, LSI may use such returned Spare Part for LSI's own independent purposes outside of this Attachment, subject to: (a) LSI removing all references to IBM (including, but not limited to logos, labels, model numbers, etc., regardless of whether such references are in the hardware or code) and all IBM unique features (e.g. bezels, documentation, or other ship group material). LSI hereby agrees to protect, defend, hold harmless and indemnify IBM and customers from and against any and all claims, suits, actions, demands or liabilities arising out of LSI's use of such returned spare parts outside of this Agreement. 8.0 Delivery 8.1 Product Delivery. All Products and spare parts may be shipped FOB receipt by carriers from the replenishment centers as designated by IBM. Payment of transportation, import/export fees, duties, taxes and tariffs will be specified in the relevant Product Unique Attachment or in another document signed by IBM and LSI. LSI shall utilize the "pull process" through EDI allowing IBM to systematically request Product from LSI on an as needed basis. At the request of IBM, LSI shall work with IBM to jointly establish a written process for handling missing items from the original ship groups. 8.3 On-Time Delivery. If LSI cannot meet a scheduled delivery date, LSI shall promptly notify IBM of LSI's revised delivery date and IBM may, at its option, (i) reschedule Products, (ii) [*] associated with shipping and handling incurred as a result of the late delivery, (iii) cancel Products not delivered without charge; and (iv) exercise all other remedies provided at law, in equity and in the Agreement, including this Attachment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Agreement or this Attachment, if LSI fails to deliver products on time and to the extent that such failure is caused solely by: (a) LSI's inability to utilize (for reasons beyond LSI's reasonable control) any of the Assigned Information, Assigned Copyrights, Assigned Software, and/or licensed materials (as such capitalized terms are defined in that certain Intellectual Property Agreement between IBM and LSI dated June 28, 2002) or (b) IBM's default under any agreement between IBM and LSI executed in connection with LSI's acquisition of the assets set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement between IBM and LSI dated June 28, 2002, then the failure to deliver products on time shall not be considered a breech of this Attachment and LSI will not be responsible for the [*] set forth above as long as LSI uses commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate the effects of the delay and otherwise complies with IBM instructions regarding the Product. 8.4 Date of Manufacture. LSI agrees that the date of manufacture for all Products purchased by IBM shall be less than [*] from the date of Product delivery to the IBM designated replenishment warehouse. 8.5 Distribution of [*] Software. Pursuant to Section 3.1.13.3 of the IBM/[*] agreement [*], LSI will be provided with the [*] software Version 2.0 and updates thereto ("[*] Software") on shrink wrap CDs and shall have the right to include the [*] Software within the Product carton and distribute the same with the Product. LSI will have no right to modify the [*] Software or distribute it in a manner other than as described herein and shall not remove or tamper with the tamper evident protection provided with the [*] Software. IBM represents that LSI's performance pursuant to the terms of this Section 8.5 will not violate the terms of SOW [*]. IBM may terminate this Section 8.5 at any time by providing LSI a written termination notice. 9 9.0 Replenishment 9.1 Replenishment Logistics This section 9.0 shall only apply when Pull Profiles are addressed as described below. 9.2 Pull Definitions "Pull Buffer" means a quantity of Pull Products within the Liability Horizon Quantity which is held in inventory by Supplier. "Pull Products" means Products specified in a Pull Product Profile. "Pull Product Profile," "Pull Profile," "MIRS Profile," or "Profile" means the relevant document signed by both parties or otherwise included in a PSPL describing the Pull Products and supporting information, including, but not limited to, IBM Part Number, Liability Horizon, Replenishment Time and packaging requirements. "Pull Purchase Order," "Pro forma Purchase Order," "PPO," or "Purchase Order" means a purchase order used by Buyer as a logistical tool only to enable system and related activities for the pull process, and does not represent a firm offer by Buyer nor bind Buyer to any quantity or delivery date. "Liability Horizon" means the period of time as specified in the relevant Pull Profile used to calculate the maximum liability for a given Pull Product, by applying the Liability Horizon period against the Planning Schedule. "Liability Horizon Quantity" means the quantity of Pull Products specified in the Planning Schedule contained within the Liability Horizon. The Liability Horizon Quantity is the WA for Pull Products ordered under this section 9.0. "Upside Flexibility" means a percentage of Pull Products specified in the Pull Profile in excess of the Liability Horizon Quantity. "Liability Horizon Quantity Overage" or "Overage Limit" or "Overage" means a Liability Horizon Quantity which exceeds the quantity of Pull Products committed to in the Pull Notifications for the same period. "Planning Schedule" means Buyer's [*] of requirements for Pull Products. "Pull Notification" means Buyer's only authorization for Supplier to deliver a specified quantity of Pull Products. "Replenishment Time" means the total elapsed time from Supplier receipt of a Pull Notification to delivery of the Pull Products to Buyer's location as specified in this PSPL or Pull Profile. The Replenishment Time consist of response time, transit time and/or process time as defined in the relevant Pull Profile. 9.3 Pull Profile Planning After the parties agree to a Pull Profile, Buyer may issue a PPO to Supplier for all Pull Products. Buyer may issue a Planning Schedule at intervals as specified in the Pull Profile, the most recent Planning Schedule to supersede all previous Planning Schedules. The Planning Schedule provides a forecast of requirements for the Pull Products and establishes quantities applicable to the Liability Horizon Quantity and Upside Flexibility, if any, with the Supplier. Supplier will respond to the Planning Schedule as specified in this PSPL or Pull Profile. 9.4 Pull Delivery Supplier will deliver to Buyer on the delivery date the Pull Products specified in the Pull Notifications issued by Buyer, provided such Pull Notifications do not exceed the Liability Horizon Quantity. Supplier will comply with Pull Notifications for quantities of Pull Products in excess of the Liability Horizon Quantity but within the Upside Flexibility. Risk of loss and title will pass to Buyer when Product is pulled from consignment. 10 9.5 Pull Limitation of Liability Unless the Pull Products are specified in a Planning Schedule in conjunction with the Liability Horizon in a Pull Profile, Buyer makes no representation or warranty and assumes no liability regarding the quantity of Pull Products that it will purchase. Buyer assumes no liability for materials procured or products built beyond the Liability Horizon Quantity. Supplier will apply Overages towards future Pull Notifications and the parties will agree to a reconciliation amount and a disposition of Overage Products, if any. The reconciliation amount will be reduced by any amount realized by Supplier for Pull Products (including raw materials or works-in-progress) used, returned or sold to any party, and any other reductions agreed to by the parties. 9.6 Order of Precedence Notwithstanding section 9.11 of the Agreement (i.e. [*]), in the event of any conflict in the documents contained in the Agreement involving Pull Products, the order of precedence will be: (i) the Pull Profile in section 9.7 below (or separate Pull Profile if signed separate from but in support of this Attachment); (ii) this section 9.0; (iii) the relevant Product Unique Attachment, (iv) the balance of this Attachment; and (v) the Agreement (i.e. [*]). 9.7 Pull Product Profile

This is the sole and exclusive remedy available to LSI for IBM's failure to fulfill its 16 obligations under Section 21, and stands in lieu of all other remedies available to LSI under this Agreement, at law, and in equity. LSI must bring any claim under this Section 21.5 within [*] of the date LSI has actual knowledge of facts giving rise to the claim, but in no event more than [*] after the date the claim arises. If IBM purchases more than [*] of its [*] for a Product in any given [*], then this Section 21.5 shall not apply and the parties shall follow the dispute resolution mechanisms otherwise available to them. 22.0 LSI Competitiveness 22.1 IBM's commitment to purchase Products from LSI is contingent upon LSI remaining competitive for each Product and in each geography with regard to supplier performance criteria which include, without limitation: Price, Product quality, Lead Times, on-time delivery, technology, Product support and responsiveness. The determination of competitiveness will be made by IBM in IBM's reasonable judgment and sole discretion, acting in good faith. IBM may request LSI to provide such relevant data to demonstrate competitiveness. IBM may at any time test LSI's competitiveness relative to the industry on a periodic basis through a competitive RFQ process with other external suppliers, internal IBM suppliers, and/or a comparison of industry benchmark RFI data. 22.2 In the event that IBM determines in its sole and reasonable discretion that LSI is noncompetitive pursuant to Section 22.1, then IBM shall provide written notice to LSI specifying the Product(s), geography(ies), and area(s) of performance in which LSI is noncompetitive. If LSI receives such notice and: (1) does not correct the identified noncompetitive performance to IBM's satisfaction or negotiate a resolution action plan to the matter which is satisfactory to IBM within [*] of said notice for price issues; or (2) does not correct the identified noncompetitive performance to IBM's satisfaction Of negotiate a resolution action plan to the matter which is satisfactory to IBM within [*] of said notice for all other performance issues: then IBM may, in addition to its other rights tinder this Attachment and the Agreement, source the affected Products from other suppliers and/or cancel any unfulfilled WA(s) for the affected product(s) at no charge and without liability. 23.0 Indemnification 23.1 General Indemnification. LSI will defend, hold harmless and indemnify, including legal fees, Customers and IBM personnel against third patty claims that arise or are alleged to have arisen as a result of negligent or intentional acts or omissions of LSI or LSI personnel or breach by LSI of any term of this Attachment (including the product Unique Attachments) and the Agreement. LSI's obligation to indemnify IBM under this section shall be contingent on IBM (i) notifying LSI promptly in writing of such a claim, (ii) giving LSI sole control and authority to proceed as contemplated herein provided, that LSI shall have sole control of any such claim or settlement negotiations, and (iii) giving LSI proper and fail information and assistance to settle and/or defend any such claim. Failure by IBM to notify LSI promptly in writing of such a claim will relieve LSI of its obligations under this section only to the extent that LSI's ability to defend the claim is prejudiced by such lack of notice. 24.0 Assignment IBM may assign some or all of its rights and obligations under this Attachment and the Agreement to third parties or its Affiliates, at IBM's sole discretion, including, but not limited to, assigning the right to procure FRUs to third-party service providers. LSI may assign some or all of its rights and obligations under this Attachment and the Agreement to third parties or its subsidiaries with prior written consent from IBM's Business Coordinator except that LSI shall have the right to assign some or all of its rights and obligations under this Attachment and the Agreement in connection with the sale of all or part of its business that makes use of or sells the Products purchased hereunder.
