                    Employment Severance Agreement

The parties to this agreement are MedSource Technologies, Inc., a Delaware
Corporation ("MedSource" or the "Company"), and Ralph Polumbo (the "Executive").

It is agreed as follows:

     1.   In the event that (a) the Company terminates the Executive's
          employment without "Cause" or (b) the Executive terminates his
          employment with the Company by written notice for "good reason" and
          provided that upon termination in either case, the Executive executes
          and delivers to MedSource the Release Agreement annexed as Exhibit A
          hereto which Release Agreement becomes effective in accordance with
          its terms, then the Company, in lieu of any and all other payments or
          benefits payable to the Executive, shall pay the Executive his base
          salary at the time of termination (payable in accordance with the
          Company's customary practice) for a period of 12 months following the
          date of termination (the "Severance Period"); provided, however, that
                                                        -----------------
          if, after the date of termination (and before the end of the Severance
          Period), the Executive is employed by or otherwise receives
          remuneration from a person or entity other than the Company, (an
          "Alternate Employer"), the Company will pay such salary for up to six
          (6) months and if the remuneration being received from the Alternate
          Employer is less than the annualized rate of the base salary, the
          Company shall, until the end of the Severance Period, pay the
          Executive the difference between the annualized rate of his base
          salary upon termination and the amount that the Executive is entitled
          to receive from such Alternate Employer. The Executive agrees to
          provide complete information to the Company with respect to any
          Alternate Employer and his financial arrangements therewith. The
          Executive understands and agrees that for a period of 12 months
          following the date of termination of the Executive's employment, the
          provision of sections 3(b) and 3(c) shall apply. As used herein "good
          reason" shall mean any of the following: (i) the Company reduces the
          Executive's base salary, bonus computation or title; (ii) the Company
          substantially reduces the Executive's responsibilities or there is a
          change in employment conditions materially adverse to the Executive,
          any of which is not remedied within 30 days after receipt by the
          Company of notice from the Executive of such reduction in
          responsibilities or change in employment conditions; (iii) without the
          Executive's written consent, the Company requires the Executive to be
          based anywhere other than his present location in Minneapolis,
          Minnesota except for required travel on Company business in the
          ordinary course; (iv) the Company takes any action which would deprive
          the Executive of any material fringe benefit other than action which
          is applied to all executives as a whole.

     2.   The Company may terminate this Agreement and the Executive's
          employment hereunder at any time upon written notice for "Cause",
          which shall mean (i) the commission of fraud or embezzlement on the
          part of the Executive, (ii) a breach by the Executive of any of
          Sections 3(a), 3(b) or 3(c) of this Agreement, (iii) the conviction of
          the Executive of, or the pleading by the Executive of guilty or no
          contest to, (x) any felony or (y) any crime

<PAGE>

          involving moral turpitude on his part and/or (iv) a material failure
          by the Executive to discharge his duties, responsibilities and
          obligations as an employee of the Company after the Executive shall
          have been duly notified of such failure and shall have had a
          reasonable time to cure the same. In the event of the termination by
          the Company of the Executive's employment for Cause, the Executive
          shall be entitled to receive his base salary accrued but not paid
          through the date of termination and no other monies or benefits except
          as provided by law.

          3. Confidentiality, et al. In consideration for the foregoing, the
             ----------------------
     Executive agrees that:

          (a)  He will not at any time, divulge, communicate, use to the
               detriment of the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates
               (collectively the "Companies") or for the benefit of any other
               person, firm or entity, or misappropriate in any way, any
               confidential information or trade secrets relating to the
               Companies or any of their businesses including, without
               limitation, business strategies, operating plans, acquisition
               strategies (including the identities of (and any other
               information concerning) possible acquisition candidates), pro
               forma financial information, market analyses, acquisition terms
               and conditions, personnel information, trade processes,
               manufacturing methods, know-how, customer lists and
               relationships, supplier lists, or other non-public proprietary
               and confidential information relating to the Companies.

          (b)  During his employment with the Company and the Severance Period,
               the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, for himself or
               on behalf of any other person, firm or entity, employ, engage or
               retain any person who at any time during the 12-month period
               preceding his termination, was an employee of any of the
               Companies or contact any supplier, customer or employee of any of
               the Companies for the purpose of soliciting or diverting any such
               supplier, customer or employee from the Companies or otherwise
               interfering with the business relationship of the Companies with
               any of the foregoing.

          (c)  During his employment with the Company and the Severance Period,
               the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, engage in, or
               serve as a principal, partner, joint venturer, member, manager,
               trustee, agent, stockholder, director, officer or employee of, or
               consultant or advisor to, or in any other capacity, or in any
               manner own, control, manage, operate, or otherwise participate,
               invest, or have any interest in, or be connected with, any
               person, firm or entity that engages in, directly or indirectly,
               any activity that is competitive with the business of the
               Companies as then conducted in the United States or Europe within
               2,000 miles of any then facility of the Companies or of any
               customer of the Companies; provided, however, that
                                          -----------------
               notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive may own up to 2% of
               the voting securities of any publicly-traded company.

          (d)  The Executive acknowledges that the agreements herein are
               reasonable and necessary for the protection of the Companies and
               are an essential inducement to

                                       2

<PAGE>

               the Company's continuing Executive in the employ of the Company.
               Accordingly, the Executive shall be bound by the provision hereof
               to the maximum extent permitted by law, it being the intent and
               spirit of the parties that the foregoing shall be fully
               enforceable. However, the parties further agree that, if any of
               the provisions hereof shall for any reason be held to be
               excessively broad as to duration, geographical scope, property or
               subject matter, such provision shall be construed by limiting and
               reducing it so as to be enforceable to the extent compatible with
               the applicable law as it shall herein pertain.

          4.   Equitable Relief. The Executive acknowledges that if he violates
               ----------------
               the provisions of this Agreement, the Company could suffer
               irreparable injury and, in addition to any other rights and
               remedies available under this Agreement or otherwise, the Company
               shall be entitled to an injunction to be issued or specific
               enforcement to be required (without the necessity of any bond)
               restricting the Executive from committing or continuing any such
               violation.

          5.   Amendment and Modification. This Agreement may not be amended,
               --------------------------
               modified or changed except in a writing signed by the party
               against whom such amendment, modification or change is sought to
               be enforced.

          6.   Waiver of Compliance; Consents. Except as otherwise provided in
               ------------------------------
               this Agreement, any failure of either of the parties to comply
               with any obligation, covenant, agreement or condition herein may
               be waived by the party entitled to the benefits thereof only be
               written instrument signed by the party granting such waiver, but
               such waiver or failure to insist upon strict compliance with such
               obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as
               a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other
               failure. Whenever this Agreement requires or permits consent by
               or on behalf of a party, such consent shall be given in writing
               in a manner consistent with the requirements for a waiver of
               compliance as set forth in this section 6.

               -------
               is required, called for or contemplated to be given or made

          Company's customary practice) for a period of 12 months following the
          date of termination (the "Severance Period"); provided, however, that
                                                        -----------------
          if, after the date of termination (and before the end of the Severance
          Period), the Executive is employed by or otherwise receives
          remuneration from a person or entity other than the Company, (an
          "Alternate Employer"), the Company will pay such salary for up to six
          (6) months and if the remuneration being received from the Alternate
          Employer is less than the annualized rate of the base salary, the
          Company shall, until the end of the Severance Period, pay the
          Executive the difference between the annualized rate of his base
          salary upon termination and the amount that the Executive is entitled
          to receive from such Alternate Employer. The Executive agrees to
          provide complete information to the Company with respect to any
          Alternate Employer and his financial arrangements therewith. The
          Executive understands and agrees that for a period of 12 months
          following the date of termination of the Executive's employment, the
          provision of sections 3(b) and 3(c) shall apply. As used herein "good
          reason" shall mean any of the following: (i) the Company reduces the
          Executive's base salary, bonus computation or title; (ii) the Company
          substantially reduces the Executive's responsibilities or there is a
          change in employment conditions materially adverse to the Executive,
          any of which is not remedied within 30 days after receipt by the
          Company of notice from the Executive of such reduction in
          responsibilities or change in employment conditions; (iii) without the
          Executive's written consent, the Company requires the Executive to be
          based anywhere other than his present location in Minneapolis,
          Minnesota except for required travel on Company business in the
          ordinary course; (iv) the Company takes any action which would deprive
          the Executive of any material fringe benefit other than action which
          is applied to all executives as a whole.

     2.   The Company may terminate this Agreement and the Executive's
          employment hereunder at any time upon written notice for "Cause",
          which shall mean (i) the commission of fraud or embezzlement on the
          part of the Executive, (ii) a breach by the Executive of any of
          Sections 3(a), 3(b) or 3(c) of this Agreement, (iii) the conviction of
          the Executive of, or the pleading by the Executive of guilty or no
          contest to, (x) any felony or (y) any crime

<PAGE>

          involving moral turpitude on his part and/or (iv) a material failure
          by the Executive to discharge his duties, responsibilities and
          obligations as an employee of the Company after the Executive shall
          have been duly notified of such failure and shall have had a
          reasonable time to cure the same. In the event of the termination by
          the Company of the Executive's employment for Cause, the Executive
          shall be entitled to receive his base salary accrued but not paid
          through the date of termination and no other monies or benefits except
          as provided by law.

          3. Confidentiality, et al. In consideration for the foregoing, the
             ----------------------
     Executive agrees that:

          (a)  He will not at any time, divulge, communicate, use to the
               detriment of the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates
               (collectively the "Companies") or for the benefit of any other
               person, firm or entity, or misappropriate in any way, any
               confidential information or trade secrets relating to the
               Companies or any of their businesses including, without
               limitation, business strategies, operating plans, acquisition
               strategies (including the identities of (and any other
               information concerning) possible acquisition candidates), pro
               forma financial information, market analyses, acquisition terms
               and conditions, personnel information, trade processes,
               manufacturing methods, know-how, customer lists and
               relationships, supplier lists, or other non-public proprietary
               and confidential information relating to the Companies.

          (b)  During his employment with the Company and the Severance Period,
               the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, for himself or
               on behalf of any other person, firm or entity, employ, engage or
               retain any person who at any time during the 12-month period
               preceding his termination, was an employee of any of the
               Companies or contact any supplier, customer or employee of any of
               the Companies for the purpose of soliciting or diverting any such
               supplier, customer or employee from the Companies or otherwise
               interfering with the business relationship of the Companies with
               any of the foregoing.

          (c)  During his employment with the Company and the Severance Period,
               the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, engage in, or
               serve as a principal, partner, joint venturer, member, manager,
               trustee, agent, stockholder, director, officer or employee of, or
               consultant or advisor to, or in any other capacity, or in any
               manner own, control, manage, operate, or otherwise participate,
               invest, or have any interest in, or be connected with, any
               person, firm or entity that engages in, directly or indirectly,
               any activity that is competitive with the business of the
               Companies as then conducted in the United States or Europe within
               2,000 miles of any then facility of the Companies or of any
               customer of the Companies; provided, however, that
                                          -----------------
               notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive may own up to 2% of
               the voting securities of any publicly-traded company.

          (d)  The Executive acknowledges that the agreements herein are
               reasonable and necessary for the protection of the Companies and
               are an essential inducement to

                                       2

<PAGE>

               the Company's continuing Executive in the employ of the Company.
               Accordingly, the Executive shall be bound by the provision hereof
               to the maximum extent permitted by law, it being the intent and
               spirit of the parties that the foregoing shall be fully
               enforceable. However, the parties further agree that, if any of
               the provisions hereof shall for any reason be held to be
               excessively broad as to duration, geographical scope, property or
               subject matter, such provision shall be construed by limiting and
               reducing it so as to be enforceable to the extent compatible with
               the applicable law as it shall herein pertain.

          4.   Equitable Relief. The Executive acknowledges that if he violates
               ----------------
               the provisions of this Agreement, the Company could suffer
               irreparable injury and, in addition to any other rights and
               remedies available under this Agreement or otherwise, the Company
               shall be entitled to an injunction to be issued or specific
               enforcement to be required (without the necessity of any bond)
               restricting the Executive from committing or continuing any such
               violation.

          5.   Amendment and Modification. This Agreement may not be amended,
               --------------------------
               modified or changed except in a writing signed by the party
               against whom such amendment, modification or change is sought to
               be enforced.

          6.   Waiver of Compliance; Consents. Except as otherwise provided in
               ------------------------------
               this Agreement, any failure of either of the parties to comply
               with any obligation, covenant, agreement or condition herein may
               be waived by the party entitled to the benefits thereof only be
               written instrument signed by the party granting such waiver, but
               such waiver or failure to insist upon strict compliance with such
               obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as
               a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other
               failure. Whenever this Agreement requires or permits consent by
               or on behalf of a party, such consent shall be given in writing
               in a manner consistent with the requirements for a waiver of
               compliance as set forth in this section 6.

          7.   Notices. Any notice, demand, request or other communication which
               -------
               is required, called for or contemplated to be given or made
               hereunder to or upon any party hereto shall be deemed to have
