This Agreement and Release ("Agreement") is made by and between Sanmina-SCI

WHEREAS, Employee has been employed by the Company for over 16 years; and
WHEREAS, the Company and Employee have mutually agreed to voluntarily terminate
their employment relationship in the future and to provide for certain payment
of benefits and releases of claims;
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises made herein, the Company
and Employee (collectively referred to as the “Parties”) hereby agree as
follows:

Within 10 days of the Effective Date, the Company shall pay Employee a lump-sum
payment of $300,000 plus payment of all of Employee's accrued, but unused

Termination Date, the Company shall continue to make the payments specified in
subsection (c) above and the vesting of the Continuing Equity Grants shall
continue as set forth in subsection (d) above.

(f)
Employee's employment with the Company shall terminate, the Company shall not
make any additional payments under subsection (c) and vesting of the Continuing
Equity Grants shall cease on the date Employee becomes employed by or consults

provision in writing.

shall be made within ten

(i)    Employee shall not accrue or be entitled to any vacation or holiday pay
that has not accrued and become payable as of the Effective Date;

Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan or the 401(k) plan; and

unemployment insurance or indemnification as provided by the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, each as amended, the Indemnification
Agreement (as defined in Section 10 below), state law as well as any other
claims that cannot lawfully be released.
If any claim is not subject to release, to the extent permitted by law, Employee
waives any right or ability to be a class or collective action representative or
to otherwise participate in any putative or certified class, collective or
multi-party action or proceeding based on such a claim in which the Company or
any of the other Released Parties identified in this Agreement is a party.
7. Acknowledgment of Waiver of Claims under ADEA. Employee acknowledges that he
is waiving and releasing any rights he may have under the Age Discrimination in
Employment Act of 1967 ("ADEA") and that this waiver and release is knowing and
voluntary. Employee acknowledges that the consideration given for this waiver
and release is in addition to anything of value to which Employee was already
entitled. Employee further acknowledges that he has been advised by this writing
that (a) he should consult with an attorney prior to executing this Agreement;
(b) Employee has twenty-one (21) days within which to consider this Agreement
from the date Employee received the Agreement; (c) he has seven (7) days
following the execution of this Agreement by the parties to revoke the
Agreement; (d) in the event Employee wishes to revoke the Agreement, he must
submit such revocation in writing and deliver to David Pulatie, Executive Vice
President, Global Human Resources within seven (7) days following his signing of
the Agreement; and (e) this Agreement shall not be effective until the
revocation period has expired.

8. Waiver of California Civil Code Section 1542. To effect a full and complete
general release as described above, Employee expressly waives and relinquishes
all rights and benefits of section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of
California, and does so understanding and acknowledging the significance and
consequence of specifically waiving section 1542. Section 1542 of the Civil Code
of the State of California states as follows:
A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or
suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which
if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with
the debtor.
Thus, notwithstanding the provisions of section 1542, and to implement a full
and complete release and discharge of the Released Parties, Employee expressly
acknowledges this Agreement is intended to include in its effect, without
limitation, all claims Employee does not know or suspect to exist in Employee's
favor at the time of executing this Agreement, and that this Agreement
contemplates the extinguishment of any such claims. Employee warrants Employee
has read this Agreement, including this waiver of California Civil Code section
1542, and that Employee has consulted with or had the opportunity to consult
with counsel of Employee's choosing about this Agreement and specifically about
the waiver of section 1542, and that Employee understands this Agreement and the
section 1542 waiver, and so Employee freely and knowingly enters into this
Agreement. Employee further acknowledges that Employee later may discover facts
different from or in addition to those Employee now knows or believes to be true
regarding the matters released or described in this Agreement, and even so
Employee agrees that the releases and agreements contained in this Agreement
shall remain effective in all respects notwithstanding any later discovery of
any different or additional facts. Employee expressly assumes any and all risk
of any mistake in connection with the true facts involved in the matters,
disputes or controversies released or described in this Agreement or with regard
to any facts now unknown to Employee relating thereto.
9. No Pending or Future Lawsuits. Employee represents that he has no lawsuits,
claims, or actions pending in his name, or on behalf of any other person or
entity, against the Company or any other person or entity referred to herein.
Employee also represents that he does not intend to bring any claims on his own
behalf or on behalf of any other person or entity against the Company or any
other person or entity referred to herein.
10. Employee Indemnification. The Company and Employee acknowledge the existence
of that certain indemnification

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

agreement between the Company and Employee dated June 19, 2009 (the
“Indemnification Agreement”), which agreement shall continue in full force and
effect after the date hereof.
11. Breach of Agreement. If Employee materially breaches any provision of this
Agreement, including taking any legal action to terminate or otherwise avoid
this Agreement, the Company shall discontinue any payments due under this
Agreement. In addition, if either party materially breaches this Agreement,
including taking any legal action to terminate or otherwise avoid this
Agreement, the other party may take any equitable action that it deems necessary
to enforce its rights under this Agreement. The prevailing party in any such
action shall be entitled to payment of its reasonable costs and expenses
(including reasonable attorneys' fees).
12. Solicitation. Through the Termination Date and for a period of one (1) year
thereafter, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, or by action in concert
with others, influence, induce or seek to influence or induce any person who (a)
is employed by or engaged as an agent or independent contractor with the Company
or (b) is a customer of or supplier to the Company to terminate or adversely
modify his, her or its relationship with the Company without the consent of
Company's Executive Vice President Global Human Resources.
13. No Admission of Liability. The Parties understand and acknowledge that this
Agreement constitutes a compromise and settlement of disputed claims. No action
taken by the Parties hereto, or either of them, either previously or in
connection with this Agreement shall be deemed or construed to be (a) an
admission of the truth or falsity of any claims heretofore made or (b) an
acknowledgment or admission by either party of any fault or liability whatsoever
to the other party or to any third party.
14. Governing Law. This Agreement is made and entered into in the State of
California, and shall in all respects be interpreted, enforced and governed
under California law.
15. Final and Binding Arbitration. Subject to Section 11 above, the Company and
Employee agree that any dispute, controversy or claim between the parties
arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or any breach or asserted breach
thereof, shall be determined and settled by arbitration in San Jose, California.
Such arbitration shall be conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of
the American Arbitration Association, which are incorporated herein by
reference. The parties shall share the cost of the arbitrator's fees equally.
The prevailing party, as that term is defined in California Code of Civil
Procedure § 1032, in such arbitration shall be entitled to its reasonable costs
and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) in such arbitration as part
of the award. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having
jurisdiction thereof, and the parties specifically reserve all rights to appeal
such judgment as if it were rendered in a court-of-law.
16. Authority. The Company represents and warrants that the undersigned has the
authority to act on behalf of the Company and to bind the Company and all who

conditions of this Agreement. Each Party warrants and represents that there are
no liens or claims of lien or assignments in law or equity or otherwise against
any of the claims or causes of action released herein.
17. No Representations. Each party represents that it has had the opportunity to
consult with an attorney, and has carefully read and understands the scope and
effect of the provisions of this Agreement. Neither party has relied upon any
representations or statements made by the other party hereto which are not
specifically set forth in this Agreement.
18. Assignment. Employee's rights and obligations under this Agreement shall not
be assignable by Employee. The Company's rights and obligations under this
Agreement shall be assignable by the Company.
19. Successors. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
of, and shall be enforceable by, Employee and the Company, their respective
heirs, executors, administrators and assigns. In the event the Company is
merged, consolidated, liquidated by a parent corporation, or otherwise combined
into one or more corporations, the provisions of this Agreement shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the parent corporation or the corporation
resulting from such merger or to which the assets shall be sold or transferred,
which corporation from and after the date of such merger, consolidation, sale or
transfer shall be deemed to be the Company for purposes of this Agreement.
20. Headings. The headings of sections herein are included solely for
convenience of reference and shall not control the meaning or interpretation of
any of the provisions of this Agreement.
21. Severability. In the event that any provision hereof becomes or is declared
by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable or void, this
Agreement shall continue in full force and effect without said provision.

entitled. Employee further acknowledges that he has been advised by this writing
that (a) he should consult with an attorney prior to executing this Release; (b)
Employee has twenty-one (21) days within which to consider this Release from the
date Employee received the Release; (c) he has seven (7) days following the
execution of this Release by the parties to revoke the Release; (d) in the event
Employee wishes to revoke the Release, he must submit such revocation in writing
and deliver to David Pulatie, Executive Vice President, Global Human Resources
within seven (7) days following his signing of the Release; and (e) this Release
shall not be effective until the revocation period has expired.

3. Waiver of California Civil Code Section 1542. To effect a full and complete
general release as described above, Employee expressly waives and relinquishes
all rights and benefits of section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of
California, and does so understanding and acknowledging the significance and
consequence of specifically waiving section 1542. Section 1542 of the Civil Code
of the State of California states as follows:
A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or
suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which
if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with
the debtor.
Thus, notwithstanding the provisions of section 1542, and to implement a full
and complete release and discharge of the Released Parties, Employee expressly
acknowledges this Release is intended to include in its effect, without
limitation, all claims Employee does not know or suspect to exist in Employee's
favor at the time of executing this Release, and that this Release contemplates
the extinguishment of any such claims. Employee warrants Employee has read this
Release, including this waiver of California Civil Code section 1542, and that
Employee has consulted with or had the opportunity to consult with counsel of
Employee's choosing about this Release and specifically about the waiver of
section 1542, and that Employee understands this Release and the section 1542
waiver, and so Employee freely and knowingly enters into this Release. Employee
further acknowledges that Employee later may discover facts different from or in
addition to those Employee now knows or believes to be true regarding the
matters released or described in this Release, and even so Employee agrees that
the releases and agreements contained in this Release shall remain effective in
all respects notwithstanding any later discovery of any different or additional
facts. Employee expressly assumes any and all risk of any mistake in connection
with the true facts involved in the matters, disputes or controversies released
or described in this Release or with regard to any facts now unknown to Employee
relating thereto.
4. No Pending or Future Lawsuits. Employee represents that he has no lawsuits,
claims, or actions pending in his name, or on behalf of any other person or
entity, against the Company or any other person or entity referred to herein.
Employee also represents that he does not intend to bring any claims on his own
behalf or on behalf of any other person or entity against the Company or any
other person or entity referred to herein.
