This Settlement Agreement (“Agreement”),
effective as of the 4th day of November 2002, is entered between F&G Scrolling Mouse, LLC and Fernando Falcon and Federico Gilligan on the one hand (collectively referred to as “F&G”) and Key Tronic Corporation
(“‘Key Tronic”) on the other hand. 
 
WHEREAS, this Agreement relates to a settlement and compromise of all claims that were or could have been brought by the
parties in Civil Action No. C99-995C entitled F&G Scrolling Mouse L.L.C Fernando Falcon and Federico Gilligan V. Microsoft Corp. and Key Tronic Corporation now on

WHEREAS, the parties seek an amicable and final business resolution and settlement of the Lawsuit, on the terms and
conditions set forth below; 
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in accordance with
the foregoing recitals, and in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, F&G and Key Tronic agree as follows: 
 
1. In full settlement of all claims that F&G brought or could have made against Key Tronic in the Lawsuit, and in consideration of the release
contained in this Agreement, Key Tronic shall pay to F&G, within three (3) days of the effective date of this Agreement, Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000.00 U.S.) by wire transfer to F&G and its attorneys, Niro, Scavone,

CITIBANK FSB—Chicago, Illinois 
ABA No. 271070801 
Niro, Scavone, Haller & Niro Client Trust Account 
Account No.0980023222 
 
Upon receipt of this initial payment, the parties shall dismiss the pending appeal and the Lawsuit through entry of the Amended Judgment and Agreed Order
attached as Exhibit A. 
 
2. In addition to the above initial
payment, Key Tronic shall pay F&G by wire transfer to the client trust account identified above, the following additional continuing & quarterly payments due on or before the first day of the third calendar month following the end of each
fiscal quarter: 
 

12 

 
(a) For each quarter
beginning for the quarter ending September 30, 2002 (making the first additional payment due December 2, 2002), fifty percent (50%) of Key Tronic’s reported operating income or Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00 U.S.), whichever is
greater. The Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000 U.S.) quarterly payment, therefore, shall be a minimum payment due each quarter no matter what Key Tronic1s reported operating income is for any particular quarter, 
 
(b) Such quarterly payments shall continue until Seven Million Dollars ($7,000,000.00 U.S.) total has been paid to F&G (Four Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($4,500,000.00 U.S.) in addition
to the Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000.00 U.S.) initial payment), provided such total payment of Seven Million Dollars $7,000,000.00 U.S.) is paid in full by December 15, 2005. 
 
(c) If Seven Million Dollars ($7,000,000.00 U.S.) has not been paid to F&G
by December 15, 2005, then the total payments due F&G shall increase each year as follows and the quarterly payments as set forth in paragraph 2(a) above shall continue until: 
 

	  	 •	 	 Seven Million Six Hundred Thousand Dollars ($7,600,000.00 U.S.) is paid by December 15, 2006; or 

 

	  	 •	 	 Eight Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($8,200,000.00 U.S.) is paid by December 15, 2007; or 

 

	  	 •	 	 Eight Million Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars ($8,800,000.00 U.S.) is paid by December 15, 2003; or 

 

	  	 •	 	 Nine Million Seven Hundred Thousand Dollars ($9,700,000.00 U.S.) is paid by December 15, 2009; or

	  	 •	 	 Eleven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($11,500,000.00 U.S.) is paid by December 15, 2011. 

 
(d) If Key Tronic makes total payments in the agreed amounts by the dates due,
then no additional payments need be made. In other words, if total payments of Seven Million Six Hundred Thousand Dollars ($7,600,000.00 U.S.) are made by December 15, 2006, no further payments need be made. The same is true, for example, if, total
payments of Eight Million Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars ($8,800,000.00 U.S.) are made by December 15, 2008. If Eleven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1 l,500,000.00 U.S.) has not been paid by December 15, 201 1, however, then Key Tronic
shall continue to make quarterly payments as required m paragraph 2(a) above interest at prime plus and at one-half percent (1 1/2%), for as long as it takes for Eleven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($11,500,000.00 U.S.), plus interest, to be paid to F&G. The prime rate shall the prime rate as published from time to time in the Wall Street Journal.

 
3 . In the event that Key Tronic fails to make any
minimum quarterly payment of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00 U.S.) when due, then Key Tronic will automatically be deemed in breach of this Agreement. F&G shall then have the right to accelerate all remaining payments in the amount of
Eleven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($11,500,000.00 U.S.), less any amounts previously paid, and shall, be entitled to judgment for breach of this Agreement in that agreed amount plus prejudgment interest and reasonable attorneys’
fees. 
 
 

13 

 
4. In the event Key Tronic is
the subject of proceedings under Chapter 11 or Chapter 7 of the federal bankruptcy laws or otherwise voluntarily or involuntarily makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors under RCW Chapter 7.08 or similar state statutes, then F&G shall
have the right, in addition to any other remedies it might have, to pursue a claim in bankruptcy court or with the assignee for benefit of creditors in the amount of Eleven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($11,500,000.00 U.S.) less any
payments previously made to F&G under this Agreement. If Key Tronic is the subject of proceedings under Chapter 11 or Chapter 7 of the federal bankruptcy laws within 90 days of making the initial payment of Two Million Five Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($2,500,000 U.S.), then F&G shall have the right, in addition to any other remedies it might have, to pursue a claim in bankruptcy court in the amount of Nineteen Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($l9,200,000.00 U.S.) 
 
5. Effective upon the execution of this Agreement, F&G and Key Ironic each
hereby release and forever discharge the other together with its past; present and future officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents, representatives, customers, subsidiaries, patent companies and affiliates and their successors, heirs and assigns, from any and all claims, demands, damages, actions, causes of action, suits, debts,

18Exhibit 10.82

                               INCENTIVE AGREEMENT

         This Incentive Agreement (this "Agreement") is effective November 12,
2002 ("Effective Date") by and between Headwaters Incorporated ("Headwaters")
with its principal place of business in Draper, Utah and R Steve Creamer
("Creamer"), an individual residing in Salt Lake City, Utah.

         WHEREAS, Creamer is employed as an officer of ISG Resources, Inc.
("ISG"); and

         WHEREAS, On September 19, 2002 Headwaters acquired indirect ownership
of ISG.

         WHEREAS, Headwaters desires to increase Creamer's incentive to assist
with the execution of Headwaters' business at least through September 2004.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants
contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1. Incentive Payment.

         a. Change in Control payment. If Headwaters is subject to a Change in
Control as defined below, at the effective time of the Change of Control,
Headwater shall pay Creamer $2.5 million. For purposes of this Agreement,
"Change in Control" shall mean:

         (A)      The consummation of a merger or consolidation of Headwaters
                  with or into another entity or any other corporate
                  reorganization, if persons who were not stockholders of
                  Headwaters immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or
                  other reorganization own immediately after such merger,
                  consolidation or other reorganization 80% or more of the
                  voting power of the outstanding securities of each of (1) the
                  continuing or surviving entity and (2) any direct or indirect
                  parent corporation of such continuing or surviving entity;

         (B)      The sale, transfer or other disposition of all or
                  substantially all of Headwaters' assets; or

         (C)      Any transaction as a result of which any person is the
                  "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the
                  Securities Exchange Act of 1934), directly or indirectly, of
                  securities of Headwaters representing at least 80% of the
                  total voting power represented by Headwaters' then outstanding
                  voting securities. For purposes of this subsection (C), the
                  term "person" shall have the same meaning as when used in
                  sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
                  1934 but shall exclude (1) a trustee or other fiduciary
                  holding securities under an employee benefit plan of
                  Headwaters or of a parent or subsidiary of Headwaters and (2)
                  a corporation owned directly or indirectly by the stockholders
                  of Headwaters in substantially the same proportions as their
                  ownership of the common stock of Headwaters.

A transaction shall not constitute a Change in Control if its sole purpose is to
change the state of Headwaters' incorporation or to create a holding company
that will be owned in substantially the same proportions by the persons who held
Headwaters' securities immediately before such transaction.

<PAGE>

         b. Tenure payment. If (A) Creamer remains in the employment of ISG
until September 30, 2004 with substantially the same level of responsibility
held by Creamer to ISG as of the Effective Date; and (B) the average Nasdaq
stock price for Headwaters stock for any calendar quarter between October 1,
2002 and September 30, 2004 is greater than $20 per share (a "Qualifying Quarter
Price"), then Headwaters shall pay Creamer the product of (Y) $500,000
multiplied times (Z) the difference between the highest Qualifying Quarter Price
and $20 per share. In no event shall the tenure payment exceed $2.5 million.
Creamer shall not be entitled to a tenure payment in the event of a Change in
Control.

2. Term.

         This Agreement shall terminate on the earlier of (a) a Change of
Control, (b) September 30, 2004, and (c) Creamer's voluntary or involuntary end
of employment with ISG.
