upon either party with specific respect to Products Asyst purchases under this Agreement.
However, Asyst shall have no obligation or liability with respect to taxes generally levied on
Flextronics in connection with the conduct of its business or, specifically taxes based on
Flextronics net income relating to Products Asyst purchases under this Agreement.3.

forth in this Amendment shall apply and be deemed automatically effective as of the
Amendment Effective Date with respect to Products under the Agreement.

    Pricing Model. The Pricing Model for the Products is based on certain levels of Actual
Revenue (as defined below) over a quarterly period commencing with the quarterly period
beginning as of January 1, 2009.
 4.1.
    
    Before the start of each fiscal quarter, the parties will meet to discuss the
various components affecting the Pricing Model, including, but not limited to, the
bill of materials indicating material costs for Products, Forecasted Revenue (as
defined below) and standard labor hours per FISO Product and STS at Kallang (the
Quarterly Review Process).4.2.
    
    The Pricing Model sets forth a mark-up schedule to the material costs that
Flextronics will charge Asyst as part of the Product price. The mark-up schedule, and
therefore, the Product price calculation, is different for: (i) each quarterly
Product price quote; (ii) each quarterly Kallang PCBA quote; and (iii) each quarterly
reconciliation as set forth in Section 4.8 below.
 4.2.1.
    
    Quarterly Product Price Quote Calculation. For each quarterly Product price
quote, the quoted Product price will be calculated based upon the mark-ups set
forth below, pursuant to the FISO Volume Pricing Model Revenue band relevant
to Forecasted Revenue for that quarter.
 4.2.1.1.
    
    Material overhead (MOH) costs are based on the indicated
applicable percentage of material costs.4.2.1.2.
    
    Labor costs are based on (i) the agreed labor rates set forth in
the Pricing Model and (ii) applicable standard hours per Product as
determined and agreed in advance in writing by the parties during the
Quarterly Review Process.4.2.1.3.
    
    Selling, general and administrative (SGA) costs are based on
the indicated applicable percentage of the sum of material costs +
MOH + labor costs.4.2.1.4.
    
    Profit is based on the indicated applicable percentage of the sum
of material costs + MOH + labor costs + SGA.
 4.2.2.
    
    Quarterly Kallang PCBA Price Quote. For each quarterly Kallang PCBA price
quote, the quoted PCBA price will be calculated based upon the mark-ups set
forth below, pursuant to

the Kallang PCBA Volume Pricing Model Revenue band relevant to Forecasted
Revenue for that quarter.
 4.2.2.1.
    
    Material overhead (MOH) costs are based on the indicated
applicable percentage of material costs.4.2.2.2.
    
    Labor costs are based on the direct labor (DL) and indirect
labor (IDL) percentages set forth in the Kallang PCBA Volume Price
Model.4.2.2.3.
    
    Selling, general and administrative (SGA) costs are based on
the indicated applicable percentage of the sum of material costs +
MOH + DL + IDL.4.2.2.4.
    
    Profit is based on the indicated applicable percentage of the sum
of material costs + MOH + DL + IDL + SGA.
 4.2.3.
    
    Quarterly Reconciliation Calculation. For each quarterly reconciliation
done pursuant to Section 4.8, the aggregate Actual Revenue calculation will be
calculated based upon the mark-ups set forth below, pursuant to the applicable
Pricing Model Revenue band relevant to Actual Revenue for that quarter.
 4.2.3.1.
    
    Material overhead (MOH) costs are based on the indicated
applicable percentage of material costs.4.2.3.2.
    
    Labor costs are based on the DL and IDL percentages set forth in
the applicable Price Model.4.2.3.3.
    
    Selling, general and administrative (SGA) costs are based on
the indicated applicable percentage of the sum of material costs +
MOH + DL + IDL.4.2.3.4.
    
    Profit is based on the indicated applicable percentage of the sum
of material costs + MOH + DL + IDL + SGA.
 4.3.
    
    The FISO Volume Pricing Model does not include freight costs, which actual
freight costs Flextronics will charge separately to Asyst.4.4.
    
    The Kallang PCBA Volume Pricing Model does include freight costs.4.5.
    
    The FISO and Kallang Pricing Models include Flextronics standard twelve (12)
month workmanship and materials warranty, as provided in Section 11.1 of the
Agreement.

4.6.
    
    New product introduction (NPI) costs are not included in this Pricing
Model, and will be quoted and agreed separately in advance in writing; provided,
however, that once a new product is deemed a Product under the Agreement, the Pricing
Model shall apply without any additional NPI costs thereafter.4.7.
    
    Non-recurring engineering (NRE) costs are not included in the Pricing
Model, and will be quoted and agreed separately in advance in writing.4.8.
    
    A quarterly reconciliation will be performed at the end of each quarter to
reconcile Forecasted Revenue to Actual Revenue for the quarter just-ended. If there is
a balance due from one party to the other based on a recalculation of the quoted
Product price using the mark-ups set forth on the Pricing Model Revenue band
applicable to the Actual Revenue, the party owed such balance will issue an invoice to
the other party. Such invoice will be paid within thirty (30) days of receipt.
Examples of this quarterly reconciliation are set forth on Attachment A.
 4.8.1.
    
    Forecasted Revenue for a quarterly period will be provided by Asyst to
Flextronics before the start of each quarter as part of the Quarterly Review
Process.4.8.2.
    
    Actual Revenue for a quarterly period is determined based on the
following: (i) Products delivered in the relevant quarter; (ii) services
delivered by Flextronics to Asyst in the relevant quarter; and (iii) the
amount of commercial claims paid by Asyst in the relevant quarter, excluding
inventory buy-back and inventory buy-down.
 4.9.
    
    All prices are based on US Dollars and all deliveries shall be deemed Ex
WorksFlextronics manufacturing facility (Incoterms 2000).4.10.
    
    If Actual Revenue for the quarterly period beginning as of the quarter
starting October 1, 2008 falls below $[*] USD the parties agree to negotiate in good
faith on a further and appropriate upward adjustment of the Pricing Model that should
apply to the Actual Revenue for that quarter.4.11.
    
    If Actual Revenue for any quarterly period beginning as of the quarter
starting January 1, 2009 falls below $[*] USD the parties agree to negotiate in good
faith on a further and appropriate upward adjustment of the Pricing Model that should
apply to the Actual Revenue for that quarter.

    Upon periodic consultation with Asyst, Flextronics may reduce its manufacturing costs in a
manner that balances service levels and expenses in order to achieve Flextronics pricing
model assumptions for Products; provided, however, that such cost reduction activities shall
not affect quality and response-times.6.
    
    Quarterly Payments  Asyst will pay to Flextronics a total of $[*] USD, as consideration for
the forecasted impact on Flextronics due to the reductions in purchase volumes or Revenue to
Flextronics in the quarters ending June 30, 2008 and September 30, 2008, of which $[*] will be
due to the lower purchase volumes or Revenue to Flextronics in the quarter ending June 30,
2008 and $[*] will be due to the lower purchase volumes or Revenue to Flextronics in the
quarter ending September 30, 2008. The payment will be made in three equal payments, each in
the amount of $[*]. Such payments will be made as follows: 1) the first payment will be
deemed earned and due and owed as of January 1, 2009 and payable within thirty (30) days; 2)
the second payment will be deemed earned and due and owed as of April 1, 2009, and payable
within thirty (30) days; and 3) the third payment will be deemed earned and due and owed as of
July 1, 2009, and
