December 4,200l

Mr. Charles Dimick
C/o Dynamic Details, Incorporated
1831 Tarob Court
Milpitas, CA 95035

Dear Chuck:

     You have indicated a desire to resign as Chairman, co-CEO and a director of
DDi Corp. ("DDi" or the "Company") and to reduce your responsibilities to the
Company in an orderly way. I have consulted with the Company's board of
directors and am pleased to offer the following proposal.

1.   Titles; Scope of Duties - You will continue to serve as the Company's
     -----------------------
     full-time Chairman, co-CEO and a director through December 31, 2001. By
     accepting this offer, you hereby resign as Chairman, Co-CEO and a director
     of the Company and as an officer or director of all Company subsidiaries
     effective December 31, 2001. Starting January 1, 2002 and continuing
     through March 31, 2002 (unless earlier terminated by the Company or, until
     such earlier date on which you breach your obligations under this Agreement
     or under your Non-Compete Agreement) (the "Part-time Period"), you will
     serve as a part-time employee of the Company, and may be called upon to
     devote up to 50% of your business time to the Company. You will continue to
     work primarily from your Milpitas location and will report to the Company's
     Chief Executive Officer. The Company may terminate the Part-time Period at
     any time prior to March 31, 2002 by providing you with prior written
     notice. Effective on the earlier of March 31, 2002 or the date on which the
     Company terminates the Part-time Period (the "Termination Date"), you will
     cease to hold any positions with the Company and its subsidiaries.

2.   Non-Compete and Technology Transfer Agreement - You and the Company entered
     ---------------------------------------------
     into a Non-Compete and Technology Transfer Agreement dated July 23, 1998
     (the "Non-Compete Agreement") in connection with, and to satisfy a
     condition of, the Stock Contribution and Merger Agreement pursuant to which
     you and other holders of stock and options issued by Dynamic Circuits, Inc.
     received substantial consideration from the Company.

     You hereby confirm that the Non-Compete Agreement (a true and correct copy
     of which is attached hereto as Exhibit "A") remains in full force and
     effect and is enforceable against you, and that Section 2.4 of the
     Non-Compete Agreement has not operated to reduce the scope of Section 2.1
     of the Non-Compete Agreement.

<PAGE>

                                       2

     Provided that you meet in full all of your obligations under the
     Non-Compete Agreement until September 30, 2002, and do not willfully breach
     this Agreement, the Company hereby agrees to reduce the period with respect
     to which it will enforce Sections 2.1 and 2.5 of the Non-Compete Agreement
     from one year after the Termination Date to September 30, 2002. If you meet
     your obligations under the Non-Compete Agreement until September 30, 2002,
     and do not willfully breach this Agreement, then, the Company shall deliver
     to you by October 10, 2002, a written notice that you have satisfactorily
     fulfilled such obligations, and Company agrees that the Non-Compete
     Agreement is thereby amended to reflect the reduction of such periods to
     September 30, 2002, and you are thereby released as of September 30, 2002
     of the restrictions of such Sections 2.1 and 2.5 of the Non-Compete
     Agreement. Failure of the Company to deliver such written notice to you by
     October 10, 2002, shall be deemed delivery of such written to you and the
     Non-Compete Agreement shall be deemed amended to reflect such reduction of
     such periods to September 30, 2002, unless the Company delivers to you by
     October 10, 2002, a written notice stating it reasonably believes that you
     have not fulfilled all of your obligations under the Non-Compete Agreement
     or have willfully breached this Agreement.

3.   Base Salary; Performance Bonus - Your annual base salary will continue
     ------------------------------
     through December 31, 2001 at the same rate as is from time to time in
     effect for Bruce McMaster (earned daily, paid at the current rate of
     $15,192.31 bi-weekly, which, annualized, equals $395,000), payable pursuant
     to the Company's standard payroll practices, and your 2001 performance
     bonus will also be the same as that paid to Mr. McMaster.

4.   Part-time Salary and Severance Payments - During the Part-time Period, the
     ---------------------------------------
     Company will pay you cash compensation for your services at an annual rate
     of $395,000 (earned daily, paid at the rate of $15,192.31 bi-weekly), in
     accordance with the regular payroll practices of the Company (the "Fee").
     While you will not be eligible for a bonus and will not continue to earn
     vacation or other paid time off during the Part-time Period, you will
     participate during that period in other employee benefit plans or programs
     of the Company in which you currently participate.

     As severance pay, starting on the day after the Termination Date and
     continuing through the twelve month period thereafter (the "Severance
     Period") the Company will pay you at an annual rate of $395,000 (earned
     daily, paid at the rate of $15,192.31 bi-weekly), in accordance with the
     regular payroll practices of the Company (the "Severance Payments"). In
     addition, the Company will pay your premiums in connection with the
     Company's group medical insurance plans in accordance with Federal "COBRA"
     law for the Severance Period. Other than payment of any accrued vacation,
     you agree that the Severance Payments and reimbursement for COBRA coverage
     will be the only compensation of any sort that you will receive during or
     on account of the Severance Period.

<PAGE>

                                       3

     All payments to you under Paragraphs 3 or 4 of this Agreement are
     contingent upon your meeting in full all of your obligations under the
     Non-Compete Agreement and not willfully breaching this Agreement. If you
     violate any term of the Non-Compete

     Agreement or willfully breach this Agreement, you will have no further
     entitlement to the Consulting Fee or the Severance Payments, and you agree
     to promptly reimburse the Company on demand for all monies previously paid
     to you or on your behalf under this Agreement.

5.   Options - You and we agree that the detailed report of your vested and
     -------
     unvested stock options and warrants attached to this letter as Exhibit "B"
     accurately reflects the matters described therein. Provided that you meet
     in full your obligations under the Non-Compete Agreement and do not
     willfully breach this Agreement, the Company hereby agrees:

     common stock as of December 4, 2001(the "Out-of-the-Money Vested Options")
     so that each of the Accelerated Options and each of the Out-of-the-Money
     Vested Options will remain exercisable until the earliest of (i) March 31,
     2003 (it being understood that, in the event that the Part-time Period is
     extended by mutual agreement beyond March 31, 2002, then the date set forth
     in this clause (i) shall be changed to be the one year anniversary of the
     Termination Date), (ii) the date on which you breach your obligations under
     this Agreement or under your Non-Compete Agreement, (iii) the earliest date

     Any of the Accelerated Options that are not exercised in a timely manner as
     provided in this paragraph will be forfeited and will terminate.

     Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 5, the terms and
     conditions of the Accelerated Options and all other options and warrants
     listed on Exhibit B remain unchanged and will be governed by the terms of
     the applicable stock option grants, agreements and plans and other
     restrictions or provisions generally applicable to options and warrants
     granted to Company employees, as these may be amended from time to time by
     the Company.

     -----------------
     employment with the Company (including the Part-time Period) and

     could disrupt the good morale of Company employees or harm its business or
     reputation.

assembly.

     2.   Non-Competition.
          ---------------

          2.1   Non-Compete Agreement. Effective upon the Closing Date, except
                ---------------------
as permitted below, Holder agrees that he will not at any time within the period
ending the later of (i) three (3) years after the Closing Date or (ii) one year
after Holder's termination of employment with the Company, directly seek or
obtain employment or consulting arrangements with any Conflicting Organization,
or have any interest in any Conflicting Organization (whether as an officer,
director, agent, security holder, partner, creditor, licensor, licensee, or
otherwise) in any county, city, state or territory in the United States of
America or in any foreign country; provided, however, that the restrictions on
directly seeking employment set forth above shall expire on the date
of termination of Holder's employment. It is the intent of the parties that this
covenant have the maximum scope permitted by Section 16601 of the California

                ------------
Section 2.1 shall be construed as a series of separate covenants, one for each
county, city, state, territory and foreign country. Except for geographic
coverage, each such separate covenant shall be deemed identical in terms to the
covenant contained in the preceding paragraph. If, in any judicial proceeding, a
court shall refuse to enforce any of the separate covenants included in this
paragraph, then the unenforceable covenant shall be deemed eliminated (or
modified as set forth below) from these provisions for the purpose of those
proceedings to the extent necessary to permit the remaining separate covenants
to be enforced. If a court determines that any covenant is unenforceable
because it is unconscionable or for any other reason, then the court may modify
such covenants to make it enforceable.

          2.3   Injunctive Relief. The remedy at law for breach of this
                -----------------
non-compete covenant being inadequate, Holder understands, acknowledges and
agrees that the Company shall be entitled, in addition to such other remedies
they may have, to temporary and permanent injunctive relief for any breach or
threatened breach of this non-compete covenant without proof of any actual
damages that have been or may be caused to them by such breach.

               ------------------------
Agreement, any activity is removed from the restricted activities set forth in
the noncompetition agreement (the "McMaster Noncompete") contained in the
                                   -------------------
employment agreement between Details and Bruce McMaster dated as of October 28,
1997 (as it may be amended, restated, replaced or otherwise modified from time
to time), Section 2.1 shall automatically be deemed amended so as to permit
Holder to engage in such activity without breaching this Agreement; provided,
however, if the activity removed from the restricted activities set forth in the
McMaster Noncompete relate to the design and engineering of printed circuit
boards, Section 2.1 shall automatically be deemed amended so as to permit Holder
to engage in the Value Added Assembly Business without breaching this Agreement.

         2.5   Non-Solicitation. During the term of Holder's employment by the
               ----------------
Company and for one (1) year thereafter, Holder shall not induce or attempt to
induce any employee of the Company to leave the employ of the Company or hire
any person who is an employee of the Company at the date of termination of
Holder's employment by the Company or was an employee of the Company at any time
during the twelve (12) months preceding the date of Holder's termination of
employment with the Company; unless such employee receives approval for such
employment from the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

     3.  Assignment of Innovations. Holder hereby assigns and agrees to assign
         -------------------------
his full right, title and interest to the Innovations to Details or its
designated subsidiary. Holder agrees, at no charge to the Company, but at the
Company's expense: (a) to sign and deliver to Details or its designated
subsidiary such other documents as Details or its designated subsidiary
considers desirable to evidence the assignment of all rights of Holder, if any,
to the Innovations to Details or its designated subsidiary and the ownership of
such Innovations by Details or its designated subsidiary and (b) to cooperate
with Details or its designated subsidiary in performing any lawful act or
signing any document which Details or its designated subsidiary in its sole
judgment considers necessary to apply for, prosecute, obtain or enforce any
patent, copyright, or other right or protection relating to any Innovation. In
the event Details or its designated subsidiary are unable to secure Holder's
signature on any such document, whether due to mental or physical incapacity or
any other case, Holder hereby irrevocably designates and appoints each of
Details, its subsidiaries and their duly authorized agents as his agent and
attorney-in-fact, to act for and in his behalf and stead, for the limited
purpose of executing and filing any such document and doing all other lawfully
permitted acts to further the prosecution, issuance and enforcement of patents,
copyrights, or other protections with the same force and effect as if executed
and delivered by the Holder. This power of attorney shall not be affected by
subsequent incapacity of the principal.

     4.  Labor Code Section 2870. Holder acknowledges receipt of a copy of
         -----------------------
Section 2870 of the California Labor Code. Holder acknowledges that it is
Holder's intent to assign and to offer to assign all of his rights to
Innovations to Details or its designated

<PAGE>

subsidiary, Holder intends to assign or to offer to assign all Innovations to
which such Section 2870 might otherwise apply.

     5.  Protection of Confidential Information. Holder agrees that he will hold
         --------------------------------------
in trust, keep confidential and not divulge, communicate, use to the determinant
of the Company or for the benefit of any other person or persons, or misuse in
any way, any Confidential Information. Holder acknowledges and agrees that any
Confidential Information he has acquired was received in confidence and as a
fiduciary of the Company.

     6.  Miscellaneous.
         -------------

         6.1  Governing Laws. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the
              --------------
internal laws of the State of California (irrespective of its choice of law
principles) shall govern the validity of this Agreement, the construction of its
terms, and the interpretation and enforcement of the rights and duties of the
parties hereto. The parties hereby agree that any suit to enforce any provision
of this Agreement or arising out of or based upon this Agreement or the business
relationship between any of the parties hereto shall be brought in the United
States District Court for the Northern District of California or the Superior or
Municipal court in and for the County of Santa Clara, California. Each party
hereby agrees that such courts shall have in personam jurisdiction with respect

such courts.

         6.2  Binding upon Successors and Assigns. Subject to, and unless

provisions, and agreements contained herein shall be binding upon, and inure to
the benefit of, the permitted successors, executors, heirs, representatives,
administrators and assigns of the parties hereto.

         6.3  Severability. If any provision of this Agreement, or the
              ------------
application thereof, shall for any reason and to any extent be invalid or
unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement and application of such provision
to other persons or circumstances shall be interpreted so as best to reasonably
effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties further agree to replace
such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and
enforceable provision which will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic,
business and other purposes of the void or unenforceable provision.

         6.4  Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the exhibits hereto, the

documents referenced herein, and the exhibits thereto, constitute the entire
understanding and agreement of the parties hereto and their affiliates with
respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior and
contemporaneous agreements or understanding, inducements or conditions, express
or implied, written or oral, between the parties with respect hereto and

modified through the date hereof. The express terms hereof control and supersede
any course of performance or usage of the trade inconsistent with any of the
terms hereof.

               ------------
counterparts, each of which shall be an original as against any party whose
signature appears thereon and all of which together shall constitute one and the

of all of the parties reflected hereon as signatories.

         6.6   Other Remedies. Any and all remedies herein expressly conferred
               --------------

(either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or
prospectively) only by a writing signed by the party to be bound thereby. The

hereunder or default in the performance hereof shall not be deemed to constitute
a waiver of any other default or any succeeding breach or default.

         6.8   No Waive. The failure of any party to enforce any of the
               --------
provisions hereof shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right of such

any part of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover,

fees to be fixed by the court (including without limitation, costs, expenses and
fees on any appeal). The prevailing party shall be the party entitled to recover
its costs of suit, regardless of whether such suit proceeds to final judgment. A
party not entitled to recover its costs shall not be entitled to recover
attorneys' fees. No sum for attorney's fees shall be counted in calculating the
amount of a judgment for purposes of determining if a party is entitled to
recover costs or attorneys' fees.

         "Any provision in an employment agreement which provides that an
employee shall assign or offer to assign any of his or her rights in an
invention to his or her employer shall not apply to an invention for which no
equipment, supplies, facility, or trade secret information of the employer was
used and which was developed entirely on the employee's own time, and (a) which
does not relate (1) to the business of the employer or (2) to the employer's
actual and demonstrably anticipated research or development, or (b) which does
not result from any work performed by the employee for the employer. Any

  Re:      Terms of Employment

Effective as of this date, the terms of your employment with the Company are
modified as follows:

..    Service Bonus, If you remain employed by the Company through October 3
     1, 2001, you will be entitled to receive a lump sum bonus in the amount of
     $50,000 (subject to applicable payroll taxes and withholding). If you
     remain employed through November 30, 2001, you will receive an identical
     lump sum bonus.

..    If you remain employed by the Company through November 30, 2001, then you
     will also receive the following:

     1.  DCI Options. The unvested portion of the three tranches of options
         originally issued to you on or about July 23, 1998 through Dynamic
         Circuits, Inc. having strike prices of $0.0013, $21.79, and $0.0296,
         respectively, of which 1,217 options, 334 options and 1,586 options,
         respectively, are currently unvested, shall be vested in full. These
         options may be exercised at any time within 12 months after termination
         of employment;

     2.  DDi Options. The unvested options in DDi Corp. common stock issued to
         you pursuant to the DDi Corp. 2000 Equity Incentive Plan shall be
         vested on a pro-rata basis calculated by multiplying the number of
         unvested options in each tranche by a fraction, the numerator of which
         equals the number of days from the date of option grant through and
         including November 30, 2001, and the denominator of which equals 365
         days. These options may be exercised at any time within 12 months after
         termination of employment;

     3.  The vested DCI and DDi options currently held by you are hereby amended
         so that they may also be exercised any time within 12 months after
         termination of employment (see attached ASTSTOCKPLAN exercisable stock
         schedule);

     4.  The remaining unpaid Deferred Payments under 6.6 of your Employment
         Agreement shall vest and be paid in accordance with the schedule set
         forth therein, namely, the annual installment payment due under
         subparagraph (a)(ii) shall be made on August 19, 2002, and the
         quarterly installment payment due under subparagraph (b) shall be paid
         on December 31, 2001. The quarterly installment payment due under (a)
         (ii) on September 30, 200l shall be paid on that date;

     5.  The one-year non-compete period described in section 2.1 of that
         certain Non-Compete and Technology Transfer Agreement (the "Non-Compete
         Agreement) dated July 23, 1998 between Details Holdings Corp. (now
         known as DDi Corp.)

<PAGE>

        and you, shall be deemed to start on the date hereof. The Non-Compete
