This JOINDER AGREEMENT AND AMENDMENT NO. 2 to the RECEIVABLES PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”), dated as of September 17, 2018, is among each of SANMINA CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (“Sanmina”), SANMINA-SCI SYSTEMS SINGAPORE PTE. LTD., a Singapore private company limited by shares (“Sanmina Singapore”), in its capacity as a seller (each in such capacity, a “Seller” and collectively, the “Sellers”) and a servicer (each in such capacity, a “Servicer” and collectively, the “Servicers”), Sanmina, as a guarantor (in such capacity, the “Guarantor”), MUFG BANK, LTD. (“MUFG Bank”), WELLS FARGO BANK, N.A. (“Wells”), BANK OF THE WEST (“BOW”) (each a “Buyer” and collectively, the “Buyers”), and MUFG Bank, as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”).
W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, Sanmina, as a Seller, Servicer and Guarantor, the Buyers and the Administrative Agent, have previously entered into the Receivables Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 26, 2018 (as amended, restated, supplemented, assigned or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Receivables Purchase Agreement”);
WHEREAS, Sanmina Singapore desires to be joined as a Seller and Servicer under the Receivables Purchase Agreement; and
WHEREAS, the parties hereto wish to amend the Receivables Purchase Agreement to (i) facilitate the joinder of Sanmina Singapore as a Seller and a Servicer thereunder and (ii) make certain other modifications thereto as more fully set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in exchange for good and valuable consideration (the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged and confirmed), the parties hereto agree as follows:
A G R E E M E N T:
1.Definitions. Unless otherwise defined or provided herein, capitalized terms used herein have the meanings attributed thereto in (or by reference in) the Receivables Purchase Agreement.
2.Joinder of Sanmina Singapore. Upon the Amendment Effective Date (as defined below), Sanmina Singapore shall be a “Seller” and a “Servicer” under the Receivables Purchase Agreement. All references in the Receivables Purchase Agreement and all other Transaction Documents to the term “Seller,” “Sellers,” “Servicer,” or “Servicers” shall be deemed to include Sanmina Singapore in those respective capacities. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Sanmina Singapore hereby repeats and reaffirms all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made or given by a Seller or a Servicer contained in the Receivables Purchase Agreement, and appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent, attorney-in-fact and representative in accordance with Section 5(k) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement.
3.Amendment to Section 1(h) (True Sale; No Recourse). Section 1(h) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement is hereby replaced in its entirety with the following language:

[***] Confidential treatment has been requested for the bracketed portions. The confidential redacted portion has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.


(h)    True Sale; No Recourse. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each purchase of the Purchased Receivables is made without recourse to any Seller and no Seller shall have liability to the Administrative Agent or any Buyer for the failure of any Account Debtor to pay any Purchased Receivable when it is due and payable under the terms applicable thereto. The parties hereto have structured each transaction contemplated by this Agreement as an absolute and irrevocable sale, and each Buyer, the Guarantor and each Seller agree to treat each such transaction as a “true sale” for all purposes under Applicable Law and accounting principles, including, without limitation, in their respective books, records, computer files, tax returns (federal, state and local), regulatory and governmental filings (and shall reflect such sale in their respective financial statements). Each Seller and the Guarantor will advise all Persons inquiring about the ownership of any Purchased Receivable that all Purchased Receivables have been sold to the Buyers. In the event that, contrary to the mutual intent of the parties hereto, any purchase of Purchased Receivables is not characterized as a sale, each Seller (other than any Seller organized under the laws of Singapore) shall, effective as of the date hereof, be deemed to have granted to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Buyers), and each such Seller hereby does grant to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Buyers), in addition to and not in substitution for the rights and remedies described in Section 6(f) hereof, a first-priority security interest in and to any and all present and future Purchased Receivables and the proceeds thereof to secure the payment of all obligations of such Seller arising in connection with this Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents, whether now or hereafter existing. Each Seller hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, on behalf of each Buyer, to file such financing statements (and continuation statements with respect to such financing statements when applicable) as may be necessary to perfect the Administrative Agent’s and each Buyer’s security interest and ownership under the UCC, with applicable collateral description in any such financing statements designating all Purchased Receivables, together with the rights granted to Administrative Agent hereunder and proceeds thereof. With respect to such grant of a security interest, the Administrative Agent and the Buyers may at its option exercise from time to time any and all rights and remedies available to it hereunder, under the UCC or otherwise. For purposes of this clause (h), each Seller (other than any Seller organized under the laws of Singapore) agrees that ten (10) Business Days shall be reasonable prior notice to such Seller of the date of any public or private sale or other disposition of all or any of the Purchased Receivables.
4.Amendment to Section 9 (Notices). Section 9 of the Receivables Purchase Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the following immediately above the words “If to the Administrative Agent:”:
