                  WHEREAS, Norrkoping desires to grant Mommers an option to
purchase certain assets used by it in the manufacturing of the Products.

                  NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

                          I. MANUFACTURING OBLIGATIONS

Mommers reasonably expects will be required during each month (the "Services
Forecast").

                  1.3. Independent Contractors. The relationship of Mommers and

Norrkoping copies of all data and documents embodying Specifications required to
permit Norrkoping to manufacture the Products. Mommers' Specifications will
include any data, know-how and other technical information concerning
manufacturing procedures that have been used by Mommers or its representatives
to manufacture the Products. If Mommers' Specifications are improved, enhanced
or otherwise revised by Mommers during the term of this Agreement, Mommers shall
promptly provide Norrkoping a data package which will include all such revised
Mommers' Specifications. Thereafter, Norrkoping will utilize all such revised
Mommers' Specifications in the manufacture of Products.

                  2.2. Sourcing of Materials. Mommers shall approve all
materials to be used by Norrkoping to manufacture the Products.

                  2.3. Production. Norrkoping will utilize manufacturing

proper equipment, machinery and production methods to ensure that the Products
will at all times meet Mommers' Specifications. All rights related to any
production method developed by Norrkoping in furtherance of this Agreement shall
be the sole and exclusive property of Mommers.

                  2.4. Monitoring of Production. Mommers (or its
representatives) shall have the right to (a) examine Norrkoping's purchasing
records to determine whether materials acquired for use in the Products have
been purchased from approved vendors; (b) inspect work in progress to determine
the adequacy of production methods and equipment employed by Norrkoping; and (c)
conduct spot inspections of finished Products to verify that the Products have
been manufactured in accordance with the Product Specifications. All
representatives of Mommers

                                       2
<PAGE>   3

conducting such inspections shall comply with all applicable safety and security
rules of Norrkoping.

                  2.5. Testing. The finished Products will be tested by or on
behalf of Mommers in accordance with procedures established by the parties from

                        III. ORDER PROCEDURE AND SHIPMENT

                  3.1. Manufacturing Service Orders. All orders for
Manufacturing Services placed by Mommers for the manufacture of Products
hereunder will identify and specify the quantity of Products being ordered and
will contain other detailed instructions including appropriate labeling
instructions and the desired date of delivery. Norrkoping will acknowledge the
receipt of and accept Mommers' Manufacturing Services orders within ten calendar
days of receipt, or as otherwise agreed by the parties hereto. Mommers
acknowledges that Norrkoping is producing Products solely at the order and
direction of Mommers, and that therefore all purchase orders shall be

days of receipt, or as otherwise agreed by the parties hereto.

                  3.2. Delivery Schedule and Inventory. Norrkoping shall use its

                  3.3. Shipment. Norrkoping will ship the Products in accordance

                        IV. PAYMENT OBLIGATION OF MOMMERS

                  4.1. Manufacturing Services. During the term of this
Agreement, the price for the Manufacturing Services shall be based upon Mommers'
direct cost to manufacture such Product for which such Manufacturing Services
are contracted for at Mommers' Echt facility. During the term of this Agreement,
Mommers shall submit to Norrkoping a complete breakdown of its direct cost
associated with the manufacture of any Product for which Mommers is contracting
for Manufacturing Services. The price of such Manufacturing Services shall be
increased or decreased, as the case may be and from time to time, to reflect
changes in the cost of raw materials, labor rates, utility rates and any other
component of direct manufacturing cost at Mommers' Echt facility.

                  4.2. Payment Terms. All amounts invoiced and payable under
this Agreement shall be paid in U.S. dollars and all amounts shall be due and

of the Product for which Manufacturing Services have been provided. Interests
shall incur on all past due amounts at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per
annum.

                  4.3. Reporting. At all times during the term of this
Agreement, Norrkoping will maintain at its principal place of business full,
complete and accurate books of account and records with regard to its activities
under this Agreement. Upon reasonable notice, Norrkoping will grant Mommers
access during regular business hours to Norrkoping's books and records in order
for Mommers to verify, at its own expense, Norrkoping's compliance with its
obligations under this Agreement.

                          V. WARRANTIES AND LIABILITIES

                  5.1. Warranties. Norrkoping expressly warrants to Mommers and
to purchasers of Mommers' Products that the Manufacturing Services and the
Products will conform to the applicable Mommers' Specifications. Norrkoping
shall indemnify and hold Mommers harmless from any and all liability,
consequential or otherwise, incurred by Mommers due to any defective Product
supplied by Norrkoping.

                  5.2. Insurance of Norrkoping. Norrkoping will obtain and
maintain during the term of this Agreement, in addition to insurance in such
amounts as is customary for companies in the same or similar business located in
the same or similar area, a policy of general liability insurance for companies
and entrepreneurs in an amount of at least U.S. $2,500,000. Norrkoping shall use
its best efforts to procure a waiver of subrogation in each policy of insurance
obtained by Norrkoping in favor of Mommers, its affiliates, joint venture
participants, and their respective officers and directors, and shall provide
Mommers with ten days prior written notice of material changes, cancellations or
renewals. Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, Norrkoping
covenants that during the term of this Agreement, it will at all times by
properly insured in accordance with applicable law.

                            VI. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

                  6.1. Intellectual Property. (a) All trademarks, know-how and
other property (whether tangible or intangible) made available to Norrkoping by
or on behalf of Mommers during the term of this Agreement, is and will at all
times remain the property of Mommers and will be returned to Mommers immediately
upon termination of this Agreement or upon the earlier request of Mommers. All
intellectual property which has arisen in the exercise of Norrkoping's duties
will be the property of Mommers. Norrkoping is bound by subscription to render
to the official conveyance of any intellectual property to Mommers if
indispensable, also after termination of this Agreement. The essential costs are
for the account of Mommers.

                  (b) Norrkoping will not incorporate anything in the
Manufacturing Services which involves the use of a trade secret, patent,
copyright or other intellectual

                                       4
<PAGE>   5

property right of a third party under which Mommers has no license rights or any
other right of use.

                  6.2. Intellectual Property Indemnification. (a) Except as
provided in this Section 6.2, Mommers shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless
Norrkoping from and against any and all claims, demands, suits or proceedings
made or brought against Norrkoping, and shall reimburse Norrkoping for any and
all liabilities, judgments, damages, costs or expenses payable by Norrkoping to
the party bringing such action together with reasonable attorneys' fees relating
thereto, as a result of any infringement of any third party patent by the
Products, unless these claims, demands, suits or proceedings are caused by gross
negligence or willful misconduct.

                  (b) Mommers will be relieved of its obligations under Section
6.2.(a) unless Norrkoping notifies Mommers promptly in writing of and gives
Mommers the exclusive authority to defend or settle such claim, demand, suit or
proceeding, and gives Mommers proper and full information and assistance to
settle or defend any such claim, demand, suit or proceeding. If the Products, or
any part thereof, are, or in the opinion of Norrkoping become, the subject of
any claim, demand, suit or proceeding for infringement of any third party patent
or copyright, or if it is adjudicatively determined that the Products, or any
part thereof, infringes any third party patent or copyright then Norrkoping may,
at its option and expense either (i) procure for Norrkoping the right under such
third party patent or copyright to sell or use, as appropriate, the products; or
(ii) replace or modify the Products or parts thereof, with other suitable and
reasonable equivalent technology or parts so that the Products become
non-infringing.

                  (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 6.2.(a) and
6.2.(b) hereof, Mommers assumes no liability for any claim arising from the use
of the Products in combination with other equipment or technology not provided
by Mommers, or any claim arising from the use of any Norrkoping process or other
technology if the claim would not have occurred but for such combination of
process or other technology.

                  (d) Norrkoping will require any subcontractor who provides
personnel or services to agree to the same rights and protection for Mommers
that Norrkoping is required to provide herein.

                          VII. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

                  7.1. Confidential Information. Each party and its affiliates,
employees, officers and directors will treat as confidential all Confidential
Information (as defined) of the other party, will not use such Confidential
Information except as expressly set forth herein or otherwise authorized in
writing, will implement reasonable procedures to prohibit the disclosure,
unauthorized duplication, misuse or removal of the other party's Confidential
Information and will not disclose such Confidential Information to any third
party except as may be necessary and required in connection

                                       5
<PAGE>   6

with the rights and obligations of such party under this Agreement, and subject
to confidentiality obligations at least as protective as those set forth herein.
Without limiting the foregoing, each of the parties will use at least the same
procedures and degree of care which it uses to prevent the disclosure of its own
confidential information of like importance to prevent the disclosure of
Confidential Information disclosed to it by the other party under this
Agreement, but in no event less than reasonable care. Furthermore, Norrkoping
shall use its best efforts to prohibit its employees, officers and directors
from using any Confidential Information or other know-how developed during their
employment with Norrkoping for a period of two years after termination of
employment with Norrkoping. As used in this Agreement, the term "Confidential
Information" shall mean any information disclosed by one party to the other
pursuant to this Agreement, which is in written, graphic, machine readable or
other tangible form and is marked "Confidential", "Proprietary" or in some other
manner to indicate its confidential nature. Confidential Information may also
include oral information disclosed by one party to the other pursuant to this
Agreement, provided that such information is designated as confidential at the
time of disclosure and reduced to a written summary by the disclosing party,
within thirty days after its oral disclosure, which is marked in a manner to
indicate its confidential nature and delivered to the receiving party.

                              VII. GRANT OF OPTION

                  8.1 Option Grant. Norrkoping hereby grants to Mommers the
right and option (the "Option") to purchase all of the right, title and interest
of Norrkoping, its successors and assigns, in and to the assets utilized by
Norrkoping in the manufacture of the Products (the "Norrkoping Assets") at a
purchase price equal to the book value of Norrkoping Assets on the date of
exercise as they would appear on the balance sheet of Norrkoping prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

                  8.2 Time and Manner of Exercise of Option. The Option may be
exercised by Mommers at any time following the date of this Agreement and on or
prior to the second anniversary of the date of this Agreement. The Option shall
be exercised by Mommers by delivering to Norrkoping written notice of exercise
of such Option. Upon the exercise of such Option, Norrkoping and Mommers shall,
as soon as practicable but in no event no later than 10 business days following
written notice of such exercise, enter into an asset purchase agreement or other
transfer documents relating to the Norrkoping Assets in form and substance
mutually agreeable to the parties and consummate the purchase and sale of the
Norrkoping Assets as soon as practicable thereafter.

                        CONTRACT MANUFACTURING AGREEMENT

                  This Contract Manufacturing Agreement (this "Agreement") is
made as of January 1, 2000 by and between Mommers Print Service BV, a company
duly incorporated and existing under the laws of the Netherlands ("Mommers"),
and Viasystems Tyneside Limited, a company organized under the laws of England
and Wales ("North Tyneside").

                                    RECITALS:

                  WHEREAS, Mommers is engaged in the business of designing,
developing, manufacturing, selling and providing product support for complex
multi-layered printed circuit boards and backpanels (the "Products") and selling
to various customers such Products;

                  WHEREAS, North Tyneside is engaged in the business of
manufacturing printed circuit boards and backpanels, including innerlayers and
has adequate production capacity and is technically capable of manufacturing the
Products;

                  WHEREAS, Mommers and North Tyneside desire to enter into an
arrangement pursuant to which North Tyneside would provide Manufacturing
Services (as defined) to Mommers on the terms and subject to the conditions set
forth herein; and

                  WHEREAS, Norrkoping desires to grant Mommers an option to
purchase certain assets used by it in the manufacturing of the Products.

                  NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

                          I. MANUFACTURING OBLIGATIONS

                  1.1. Manufacturing Services. Subject to the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement, North Tyneside agrees to provide all
services related to the manufacturing of the Products (the "Manufacturing
Services") and Mommers agrees to accept the Manufacturing Services for Products
meeting Mommers' Specifications (as defined), in such quantities as determined
under Section 1.2 hereof. For purpose of this Agreement the term "Mommers'
Specifications" means and includes any and all designs, drawings, blueprints,
formulations, models, specifications, manufacturing data, techniques, processes,

date of each calendar month, or as otherwise agree by the parties hereto,
Mommers shall prepare and submit to North Tyneside a forecast of the
Manufacturing Services which

<PAGE>   2

Mommers reasonably expects will be required during each month (the "Services
Forecast").

                  1.3. Independent Contractors. The relationship of Mommers and
North Tyneside established by this Agreement is that of independent contractors,
and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to (i) give either

(ii) constitute the parties as partners, joint venturers, co-owners or otherwise
as participants in a joint or common undertaking; (iii) constitute North
Tyneside to be an agent or retailer within the meaning of the applicable law;
(iv) prevent North Tyneside from entering into any other business; or (v) allow
North Tyneside to create or assume obligations on behalf of Mommers except as
provided herein. All financial and other obligations associated with North
Tyneside's business are the sole responsibility of North Tyneside except as

                   II. PROCESSING AND MANUFACTURE OF PRODUCTS

                  2.1. Products Specifications. Mommers will provide to North
Tyneside copies of all data and documents embodying Specifications required to
permit North Tyneside to manufacture the Products. Mommers' Specifications will
include any data, know-how and other technical information concerning
manufacturing procedures that have been used by Mommers or its representatives
to manufacture the Products. If Mommers' Specifications are improved, enhanced
or otherwise revised by Mommers during the term of this Agreement, Mommers shall
promptly provide North Tyneside a data package which will include all such
revised Mommers' Specifications. Thereafter, North Tyneside will utilize all
such revised Mommers' Specifications in the manufacture of Products.

                  2.2. Sourcing of Materials. Mommers shall approve all
materials to be used by North Tyneside to manufacture the Products.

                  2.3. Production. North Tyneside will utilize manufacturing
processes or production methods approved by Mommers. North Tyneside will employ
proper equipment, machinery and production methods to ensure that the Products
will at all times meet Mommers' Specifications. All rights related to any
production method developed by North Tyneside in furtherance of this Agreement
shall be the sole and exclusive property of Mommers.

                  2.4. Monitoring of Production. Mommers (or its
representatives) shall have the right to (a) examine North Tyneside's purchasing
records to determine whether materials acquired for use in the Products have
been purchased from approved vendors; (b) inspect work in progress to determine
the adequacy of production methods and equipment employed by North Tyneside; and
(c) conduct spot inspections of finished Products to verify that the Products
have been manufactured in accordance with the Product Specifications. All
representatives of Mommers

                                       2

<PAGE>   3

conducting such inspections shall comply with all applicable safety and security
rules of North Tyneside.

                  2.5. Testing. The finished Products will be tested by or on
behalf of Mommers in accordance with procedures established by the parties from

                        III. ORDER PROCEDURE AND SHIPMENT

                  3.1. Manufacturing Service Orders. All orders for
Manufacturing Services placed by Mommers for the manufacture of Products
hereunder will identify and specify the quantity of Products being ordered and
will contain other detailed instructions including appropriate labeling
instructions and the desired date of delivery. North Tyneside will acknowledge
the receipt of and accept Mommers' Manufacturing Services orders within ten
calendar days of receipt, or as otherwise agreed by the parties hereto. Mommers
acknowledges that North Tyneside is producing Products solely at the order and
direction of Mommers, and that therefore all purchase orders shall be
noncancellable after either acceptance or if not disapproved within 10 calendar
days of receipt, or as otherwise agreed by the parties hereto.

                  3.2. Delivery Schedule and Inventory. North Tyneside shall

accordance with the delivery schedule contained therein.

                  3.3. Shipment. North Tyneside will ship the Products in

other costs, expenses, fees, duties, imports, value added taxes and charges of
whatever kind or nature arising from shipment of the Products to the destination

                        IV. PAYMENT OBLIGATION OF MOMMERS

                  4.1. Manufacturing Services. During the term of this
Agreement, the price for the Manufacturing Services shall be based upon Mommers'
direct cost to manufacture such Product for which such Manufacturing Services
are contracted for at Mommers' Echt facility. During the term of this Agreement,
Mommers shall submit to North Tyneside a complete breakdown of its direct cost
associated with the manufacture of any Product for which Mommers is contracting
for Manufacturing Services. The price of such Manufacturing Services shall be
increased or decreased, as the case may be and from time to time, to reflect
changes in the cost of raw materials, labor rates, utility rates and any other
component of direct manufacturing cost at Mommers' Echt facility.

                  4.2. Payment Terms. All amounts invoiced and payable under
this Agreement shall be paid in U.S. dollars and all amounts shall be due and
payable by

<PAGE>   4

wire transfer of immediately available funds in sixty 60 days from the date of
shipment of the Product for which Manufacturing Services have been provided.
Interests shall incur on all past due amounts at the rate of twelve percent
(12%) per annum.

                  4.3. Reporting. At all times during the term of this
Agreement, North Tyneside will maintain at its principal place of business full,
complete and accurate books of account and records with regard to its activities
under this Agreement. Upon reasonable notice, North Tyneside will grant Mommers
access during regular business hours to North Tyneside's books and records in
order for Mommers to verify, at its own expense, North Tyneside's compliance
with its obligations under this Agreement.

                          V. WARRANTIES AND LIABILITIES

                  5.1. Warranties. North Tyneside expressly warrants to Mommers
and to purchasers of Mommers' Products that the Manufacturing Services and the
Products will conform to the applicable Mommers' Specifications. Norrkoping
shall indemnify and hold Mommers harmless from any and all liability,
consequential or otherwise, incurred by Mommers due to any defective Product
supplied by Norrkoping.

                  5.2. Insurance of North Tyneside. North Tyneside will obtain
and maintain during the term of this Agreement, in addition to insurance in such
amounts as is customary for companies in the same or similar business located in
the same or similar area, a policy of general liability insurance for companies
and entrepreneurs in an amount of at least U.S. $2,500,000. North Tyneside shall
use its best efforts to procure a waiver of subrogation in each policy of
insurance obtained by North Tyneside in favor of Mommers, its affiliates, joint
venture participants, and their respective officers and directors, and shall
provide Mommers with ten days prior written notice of material changes,
cancellations or renewals. Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement,
North Tyneside covenants that during the term of this Agreement, it will at all
times by properly insured in accordance with applicable law.

                            VI. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

                  6.1. Intellectual Property. (a) All trademarks, know-how and
other property (whether tangible or intangible) made available to North Tyneside
by or on behalf of Mommers during the term of this Agreement, is and will at all
times remain the property of Mommers and will be returned to Mommers immediately
upon termination of this Agreement or upon the earlier request of Mommers. All
intellectual property which has arisen in the exercise of North Tyneside's
duties will be the property of Mommers. North Tyneside is bound by subscription
to render to the official conveyance of any intellectual property to Mommers if
indispensable, also after termination of this Agreement. The essential costs are
for the account of Mommers.

                                       4
<PAGE>   5

                  (b) North Tyneside will not incorporate anything in the
Manufacturing Services which involves the use of a trade secret, patent,
copyright or other intellectual property right of a third party under which
Mommers has no license rights or any other right of use.

                  6.2. Intellectual Property Indemnification. (a) Except as
provided in this Section 6.2, Mommers shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless
North Tyneside from and against any and all claims, demands, suits or
proceedings made or brought against North Tyneside, and shall reimburse North
Tyneside for any and all liabilities, judgments, damages, costs or expenses
payable by North Tyneside to the party bringing such action together with
reasonable attorneys' fees relating thereto, as a result of any infringement of
any third party patent by the Products, unless these claims, demands, suits or
proceedings are caused by gross negligence or willful misconduct.

                  (b) Mommers will be relieved of its obligations under Section
6.2.(a) unless North Tyneside notifies Mommers promptly in writing of and gives
Mommers the exclusive authority to defend or settle such claim, demand, suit or
proceeding, and gives Mommers proper and full information and assistance to
settle or defend any such claim, demand, suit or proceeding. If the Products, or
any part thereof, are, or in the opinion of North Tyneside become, the subject
of any claim, demand, suit or proceeding for infringement of any third party
patent or copyright, or if it is adjudicatively determined that the Products, or
any part thereof, infringes any third party patent or copyright then North
Tyneside may, at its option and expense either (i) procure for North Tyneside
the right under such third party patent or copyright to sell or use, as
appropriate, the products; or (ii) replace or modify the Products or parts
thereof, with other suitable and reasonable equivalent technology or parts so
that the Products become non-infringing.

                  (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 6.2.(a) and
6.2.(b) hereof, Mommers assumes no liability for any claim arising from the use
of the Products in combination with other equipment or technology not provided
by Mommers, or any claim arising from the use of any North Tyneside process or
other technology if the claim would not have occurred but for such combination
of process or other technology.

                  (d) North Tyneside will require any subcontractor who provides
personnel or services to agree to the same rights and protection for Mommers
that North Tyneside is required to provide herein.

                          VII. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

                  7.1. Confidential Information. Each party and its affiliates,
employees, officers and directors will treat as confidential all Confidential
Information (as defined) of the other party, will not use such Confidential
Information except as expressly set forth herein or otherwise authorized in
writing, will implement reasonable procedures to prohibit the disclosure,
unauthorized duplication, misuse or removal of the other party's Confidential
Information and will not disclose such Confidential Information to any third
party except as may be necessary and required in connection with the rights and
obligations of such party under this Agreement, and subject to confidentiality
obligations at least as protective as those set forth herein. Without limiting
the foregoing, each of the parties will use at least the same procedures and
degree of care which it uses to prevent the disclosure of its own confidential
information of like importance to prevent the disclosure of Confidential
Information disclosed to it by the other party under this Agreement, but in no
event less than reasonable care. Furthermore, North Tyneside shall use its best
efforts to prohibit its employees, officers and directors from using any
Confidential Information or other know-how developed during their employment
with North Tyneside for a period of two years after termination of employment
with North Tyneside. As used in this Agreement, the term "Confidential
Information" shall mean any information disclosed by one party to the other
pursuant to this Agreement, which is in written, graphic, machine readable or
other tangible form and is marked "Confidential", "Proprietary" or in some other
manner to indicate its confidential nature. Confidential Information may also
include oral information disclosed by one party to the other pursuant to this
Agreement, provided that such information is designated as confidential at the
time of disclosure and reduced to a written summary by the disclosing party,
within thirty days after its oral disclosure, which is marked in a manner to
indicate its confidential nature and delivered to the receiving party.

                              VII. GRANT OF OPTION

                  8.1 Option Grant. North Tyneside hereby grants to Mommers the
right and option (the "Option") to purchase all of the right, title and interest
of North Tyneside, its successors and assigns, in and to the assets utilized by
North Tyneside in the manufacture of the Products (the "North Tyneside Assets")
at a purchase price equal to the book value of North Tyneside Assets on the date
of exercise as they would appear on the balance sheet of Norrkoping prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

                  8.2 Time and Manner of Exercise of Option. The Option may be
exercised by Mommers at any time following the date of this Agreement and on or
prior to the second anniversary of the date of this Agreement. The Option shall
be exercised by Mommers by delivering to North Tyneside written notice of
exercise of such Option. Upon the exercise of such Option, North Tyneside and
Mommers shall, as soon as practicable but in no event no later than 10 business
days following written notice of such exercise, enter into an asset purchase
agreement or other transfer documents

in its possession, custody or under its direct or indirect control.

                  10.3. Outstanding Payments. The termination of this Agreement
shall not release Mommers from its obligation to pay any sums then owing to

                  11.9. Partial Invalidity. If any paragraph, provision, or
clause thereof in this Agreement shall be found or be held to be invalid or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction in which this Agreement is being performed,
the remainder of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable and the parties
shall negotiate, in good faith, a substitute, valid and enforceable provision
which most nearly effects the parties' intent in entering into this Agreement.

                  11.10. Counterparts. The Agreement may be executed in two or
more counterparts, all of which, taken together, shall be regarded as one and
the same instrument.

                  11.11. Modification. No alteration, amendment, waiver,
cancellation or any other change in any term or condition of this Agreement
shall be valid or binding on either party unless the same shall have been agreed
to in writing by both parties.

                  11.12. Waiver. The failure of either party to enforce at any
time the provisions of this Agreement, or the failure to require at any time
performance by the other party of any of the provisions of this Agreement, shall
in no way be constituted to be a present or future waiver of such provisions,
nor in any way affect the validity of either party to enforce each and every
such provision.

                  11.13. Severability of Covenants. Any covenant, term,
agreement, provision or condition of this Agreement, which in any way contravene
the applicable laws, rules or regulations of any jurisdiction in which the
parties to this Agreement are located, shall be deemed severable and of no force
or effect and shall not affect the validity of any other covenant, term,
agreement, proviso or condition of this Agreement.

                  11.14. Headings. Titles and headings to Sections herein are
inserted for convenience of reference only, and are not intended to be part of

the entire understanding of the parties hereto. All previous proposals and
communications relative to the Manufacturing Services, whether oral or written,
are hereby superseded, except to the extent they have been expressly
incorporated into this Agreement. No contrary or additional terms or conditions
shall apply notwithstanding any oral or written statement by North Tyneside,
including any invoice, statement, sales order or other document describing the
delivery of Manufacturing Services, unless agreed to by Mommers in writing.

                  11.16. Further Assurances. From time to time, as and when
requested by either party hereto, the other party will execute and deliver, or
cause to be executed and delivered all such documents and instruments as may be
reasonably necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this
