         EFFECTIVE DATE: has the meaning assigned to such term in Article 7
         hereof.

Article 2  Purchase

2.1      Minimum Purchase. During each Period during the term of this Agreement,
         Alcatel will purchase from Supplier seventy percent (70%) of the SAM
         (the "Minimum Purchase").

         Such Components shall be purchased from Supplier and/or Supplier
         Affiliated Companies by Alcatel, its Affiliated Companies and/or their
         contract manufacturers (CMs) and/or their logistic service providers
         (LSPs).

         The Minimum Purchase will be measured over each 12 month period ending
         on the anniversary of the Effective Date (each a "Period").

         If during the term of this Agreement, Supplier introduces any new
         Component, Alcatel will consider the integration of such Component,

                                      -2-

<PAGE>

         subject to Supplier being willing and able to supply on competitive
         terms in accordance with Section 2.3, into any relevant application of
         Alcatel or its Affiliated Companies, either existing or currently in
         development. If this integration is accepted and requires an additional
         substantial research and development effort from Alcatel, the parties
         will discuss in good faith the most appropriate means and contributions
         of each party.

2.2      In connection with the calculation of the Minimum Purchase, Supplier
         shall communicate to Alcatel, promptly after the end of each Period,
         the actual billings of Supplier and/or Supplier Affiliated Companies to
         Alcatel Affiliated Companies, their CMs and their LSPs for Components
         during such year and Alcatel shall communicate in writing to Supplier,
         promptly after the end of each Period, the SAM for such Period.

         At the end of each Period, if the amount of Alcatel's cumulative
         purchases are less than [*] percent ([*]%) of the Minimum Purchase
         (i.e. [*] percent ([*]%) of the SAM), then Alcatel shall pay to
         Supplier an amount equal to [*] percent ([*]%) of the short-fall (each
         a "Periodic Payment"); provided that if, at the end of the third
         Period, the aggregate, cumulative purchases of Opto-electronic
         Components during such three Periods is less than [*] percent ([*]%) of
         the aggregate, cumulative SAM for all three Periods, Alcatel shall at
         its election either: (i) pay the amount of such shortfall within [*]
         after Supplier's invoice therefor or (ii) make up such shortfall in the
         next succeeding Period upon mutual agreement between the parties to
         extend the term of this Agreement for such an additional Period.

         If the amount of Alcatel's cumulative purchases during any Period
         (including excess amounts from prior Periods) exceeds the Minimum
         Purchase, then the excess shall be included in the amount of purchases
         made in the subsequent Period.

2.3      In the event Alcatel can demonstrate that Supplier (i) has [*] or (ii)
         has [*] or (iii) has discontinued any Components previously purchased
         by Alcatel and still requested by Alcatel, then the purchase of those
         Components by Alcatel, its Affiliated Companies, CMs and LSPs from
         third parties will be deemed purchased from Supplier and shall be taken
         into account in determining Alcatel's fulfillment of the purchase
         obligation set forth in this Article 2; provided that with respect to
         [*].

2.4      In the event Supplier has discontinued a Component and Alcatel still
         desires to purchase such Component as contemplated under subsection
         2.3(iii) above, Alcatel's purchase of such Component from a third party
         supplier shall count towards fulfillment of the Minimum Purchase in an
         amount equal to Supplier's invoice price to Alcatel for the relevant
         Component, multiplied by the number of such Components purchased by
         Alcatel from the third party supplier.

2.5      Sale of Business

2.5.1    Subject to Supplier's obligations under Section 4.5, in the event of
         any (i) change in the ownership of the voting shares of Supplier,
         resulting in the ownership of more than 50% of such voting shares by an
         Alcatel Competitor, (ii) merger of Supplier with an Alcatel Competitor,
         or (iii) sale of 50% or more of the assets or the business of Supplier
         to an Alcatel Competitor, then this Agreement shall terminate on notice
         from Alcatel to Supplier.

2.5.2    In the event of the sale or transfer by Supplier of a specific product
         line that includes at least one commercially released product purchased
         under this Agreement to a third party, then products of such product
         line shall not be required to be purchased by Alcatel hereunder, or
         included in the SAM or the Minimum Purchase obligation.

2.5.3    If, during the term of this Agreement, Alcatel or an Alcatel Affiliated
         Company intends to sell all or any part of a product line which uses
         Components, or a portion of its or their business, to a third party
         buyer, Alcatel shall notify Supplier of such intended sale as soon as
         is reasonably practicable and Alcatel shall provide for the valid
         assignment or replication of all rights and obligations under this
         Agreement related to the product line or business being sold, provided
         that Alcatel shall not have any joint and several liability with such
         third party to Supplier arising after the date of such assignment or
         replication.

2.6      If during the term of this Agreement,

         (i)      Supplier ceases substantially all performance of its material
                  obligations under this Agreement, or ceases substantially all
                  of the manufacture and sale of any Components;

         (ii)     Supplier shall commence any case, proceeding or other action
                  seeking to have an order for relief entered on its behalf as
                  debtor or to adjudicate it a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking
                  reorganization arrangement, adjustment, liquidation,
                  dissolution or composition of it or its debts under any law
                  relating to bankruptcy, insolvency,

                  a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for
                  it or for all or any substantial part of its property or shall
                  file an answer or other pleading in any case, proceeding or
                  other action admitting the material allegations of any
                  petition, complaint or similar pleading filed against it or
                  consenting to the relief sought therein; or

         (iii)    Any involuntary case, proceeding or other action against
                  Supplier shall be commenced seeking to have an order for
                  relief entered against it as debtor or to adjudicate it a
                  bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking reorganization, arrangement,

described under clauses (ii) or (iii) involving a petition or case under the
U.S. Bankruptcy Code, if (A) Supplier has "rejected" this Agreement as such term
is understood under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, or its equivalent under any other
applicable bankruptcy or creditor laws under which such proceedings are
