     ----

4.1  This Agreement shall be effective as of the ACQUISITION CLOSING DATE  and

     -------------------------

5.1  TECH shall sell PRODUCTS to MICRON in accordance with the pricing formula
     provided in Annex A to the SHAREHOLDERS' AGREEMENT.  TECH shall invoice

     and 17.7 of the SHAREHOLDERS' AGREEMENT.

6.   DELIVERY
     --------

6.1  The delivery dates indicated by MICRON on its purchase orders for PRODUCTS
     are important elements of shipment and receiving of PRODUCTS.  TECH agrees
     to accept any MICRON purchase order, provided that such purchase order:
     (i) does not exceed TECH's then current capacity, (ii) reasonably reflects
     MICRON's forecasts as described under Article 17.2 of the SHAREHOLDERS'

     event that any PRODUCTS are not shipped in accordance with such delivery
     dates, TECH agrees to ship via air freight (or as directed by MICRON) and
     to pay for all extra costs; provided, however, that such failure to timely
     ship is not due to any direct act or omission of MICRON (including without
     limitation any MICRON employee or agent).

6.2  Material failure to meet agreed upon delivery shall be considered a breach
     of this Agreement; provided, however, MICRON shall not be entitled to
     damage and/or specific performance for any such breach where said breach is
     the direct result of any act of MICRON, its employees or agents.  TECH
     shall not be liable for any penalty or incidental or consequential damages
     imposed upon or incurred by MICRON as a result of failure of TECH to
     deliver PRODUCTS on such delivery dates.

     the PRODUCTS shall be packaged in accordance with commercially accepted
     standards, or to applicable MICRON specifications, to ensure safe arrival
     at MICRON's designated delivery point.

     personnel are direct employees of TECH or have been obtained from one of
     the parties to the SHAREHOLDERS' AGREEMENT on a seconding or contractual
     basis); provided, however, that liability for such claims is not due to any
     direct act or omission of MICRON (including without limitation any MICRON
     employee or agent).

7.4  (a) THE WARRANTIES IN THE SHAREHOLDERS' AGREEMENT AND ITS ANNEXES,
     INCLUDING THIS AGREEMENT, ARE EXCLUSIVE AND STATED IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER
     WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, STATUTORY, OR IMPLIED, AND NEITHER ASSUME NOR

     CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.

     (c) The limitation of liability for direct damages described in the
     previous paragraph shall not apply in the event that any PRODUCTS sold to
     MICRON under this Agreement are determined by a court of competent
     jurisdiction to be defective and to have directly caused property damage or
     bodily injury or death, provided that MICRON provides TECH with a right to
     participate with MICRON, at TECH's cost, in the defense of the associated
     action.

7.5  The terms "SPECIFICATIONS," "TECHNICAL INFORMATION" and "PRODUCTS" as used
     herein shall have the same definitions as in the SHAREHOLDERS' AGREEMENT,
     and TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE AGREEMENT.

8.   FORCE MAJEURE
     -------------

8.1  Should any Party be prevented from performing its contractual obligations
     under this Agreement due to the cause or causes of force majeure such as
     acts of war (declared or undeclared), fire, storm, floods, typhoon or other
     severe weather conditions, serious earthquake, legal restraints, government
     or like interference, judicial action, accidental damage to equipment, as
     well as any other cause outside the control of that Party, that Party shall
     not be liable to the other Party for any delay or failure of performance
     caused by any of the above events.  "Force Majeure" shall include the
     failure to obtain such license(s) and other approvals, including export

     performance of this Agreement through friendly negotiations as soon as
     possible with the objective of restructuring the relationship between them

10.   OVERSHIPMENTS
      -------------

10.1  TECH shall ship only the quantity(ies) specified in purchase orders placed
      under this Agreement. However, any deviation caused by conditions of
      loading, shipping, packing or allowances in manufacturing processes may be
      accepted by MICRON according to the overshipment allowance indicated on
      the face of MICRON purchase orders. If no allowance is shown, no
      percentage overshipment is allowed. MICRON reserves the right to return
      any overshipment in excess of the allowance at TECH's expense.

11.   PACKING AND SHIPPING INSTRUCTIONS
      ---------------------------------

11.1  TECH will properly pack and describe shipments in accordance with MICRON
      specifications and applicable carrier regulations. Shipments will be made
      at the lowest possible freight charges. MICRON may assist TECH by
      providing freight classifications or classifying material. TECH will
      insure or declare value on shipments except on parcel post, unless MICRON
      specifies otherwise. On shipment where value is declared, TECH will ship
      prepaid insured for a minimum of the equivalent of fifty U.S. dollars
      (U.S. $50.00) to facilitate tracing. If shipping by air carrier, TECH will
      ship freight prepaid. TECH shall consolidate the air and surface shipments
      on single bills of lading insofar as possible so as to avoid premium
      freight costs unless instructed otherwise by MICRON.

11.2  In case any shipment does not correspond to normal practice in the
      industry (e.g., require special handling shipments or air ride suspension,
      or air shipment over five hundred (500) pounds, or over one hundred twenty
      (120) inches long or wide or over fifty-six (56) cubic feet, etc.), TECH
      agrees to notify MICRON's appropriate traffic department seventy-two (72)
      hours prior to shipment for special shipping instructions.

11.3  Each box, crate or carton will show MICRON's full street address and
      purchase order number regardless of how shipped. On air carrier shipments,
      a packing list shall accompany each container and shall describe the
      contents of such container. On all other shipments, TECH will provide a
      packing list to accompany each shipment, referencing the appropriate
      purchase order number. The bill of lading also will reference the purchase
      order number.

11.4  TECH is responsible for packing shipments correctly based on the
      carrier/mode utilized. Charges for packing and crating shall be deemed
      part of the purchase price and no additional charges will be made therefor
      unless specifically requested by MICRON on the purchase order. TECH agrees
      to ship via the carrier specified by MICRON.

12.   NOTICE OF LABOR DISPUTE
      -----------------------

12.1  Whenever any actual or potential labor dispute delays or threatens to
      delay the timely performance of any purchase order issued hereunder, TECH
      shall immediately give notice thereof to MICRON.

      construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Singapore, except
      that the validity, scope, interpretation or infringement of MICRON
      intellectual property rights (including, without limitation, MICRON
      patents, copyrights, maskwork rights and trade secrets) shall be governed
      by the laws of Idaho, U.S.A., applicable to contracts made and fully
      performed within Idaho. In this Section 13.00, the "INVESTMENT PERIOD"
      shall mean such time as EDB and/or any EDB SUBSIDIARY owns at least ten
      percent (10%) of the issued ordinary share capital of TECH.

13.2  Subject to Paragraph 13.01 alone, this Agreement shall be governed by and
      construed in accordance with the laws of Idaho, U.S.A., applicable to
      contracts made and fully performed within Idaho.

13.3  For purposes of any litigation relating to this Agreement, the Parties
      consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Republic of
      Singapore and Idaho.

      the shareholders of TECH shall enter into good faith discussions for a
      period of thirty (30) days in an effort to determine an appropriate course
      of action for TECH. During such period, unless an Insolvency Event shall
      have occurred prior to the termination of such thirty (30) day period,

      Agreement (it being understood that the unavailability of commitments
      under the Credit Agreement due to TECH's inability to meet conditions
      precedent or make representations or warranties shall not in and of itself
