Solectron Global Finance LTD

Solectron Corporation

Offer to Exchange

8.00% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2016 of Solectron Global Finance LTD,

guaranteed by Solectron Corporation, which have been Registered

Under the Securities Act

For

Any and All Outstanding 8.00% Senior

Subordinated Notes due 2016 of Solectron Global Finance LTD,

guaranteed by Solectron Corporation

We are offering to exchange up to $150,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our senior subordinated notes guaranteed by Solectron Corporation for exchange notes guaranteed by Solectron Corporation which have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933. We will not receive any proceeds from the exchange offer.

The terms of the exchange notes will be substantially similar to the original notes except that the exchange notes will not be subject to transfer restrictions and registration rights relating to the original notes.

The exchange offer will expire at 5:00 p.m. New York City time, on          , 2006, unless we decide to extend the expiration date. Completion of the exchange offer is subject to customary conditions which we may waive.

The exchange of original notes for exchange notes will not be a taxable event for United States Federal income tax proposes.

There is no existing market for the exchange notes to be issued, and we do not intend to apply for their listing on any securities exchange or arrange for them to be quoted on any quotation system.

Each broker-dealer who receives exchange notes for its own account pursuant to the exchange offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes. The letter of transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of exchange notes received in exchange for original notes where such original notes were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. We have agreed that, starting on the expiration date and ending on the close of business 90 days after the expiration date, we will make this prospectus available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. For a discussion of the prospectus delivery requirements by a broker-dealer, see the section in this prospectus titled “Plan of Distribution.”

See the section entitled “Description of the Exchange Notes” that begins on page 33 for more information about the original notes and the exchange notes to be issued in this exchange offer.

This investment involves risks. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 11.

MARKET DATA

Market data contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus is based on independent industry sources (including International Data Corporation), other publicly available information and the good faith estimates of our management.

Although we are aware of no reason that would lead us to believe that such sources are not reliable, the accuracy and completeness of such information has not been independently verified by us and cannot be guaranteed.

DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

In addition to the other information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, investors should carefully consider the risk factors disclosed in this prospectus in evaluating an investment in the notes. The information contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus includes forward-looking statements relating to matters including, but not limited to:

•  future sales and operating results, including future earnings, growth, rates and trends;

•  our anticipation of the timing and amounts of our future obligations and commitments and our ability to meet those commitments;

•  the impact of our Lean Initiative and its expected future benefit to us;

•  our expectations regarding valuation allowances on future tax benefits in various countries;

•  our expectations regarding charges relating to future tax audits and the availability of any reserves;

•  the amount of available future cash and our belief that our cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, lines of credit and cash to be generated from continuing operations will be sufficient for us to meet our obligations for the next twelve months;

•  the success, capabilities and capacities of our business operations;

•  the adequacy of our restructuring provisions and timing of our restructuring actions and their impact on our business or results of operations;

•  the anticipated financial impact of recent and future acquisitions and divestitures and the adequacy of our provisions for indemnification obligations pursuant to such transactions;

The forward-looking statements are generally accompanied by words such as “intend,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect” and other similar words and statements.

ii

10-Q and 8-K. Such risks, uncertainties and changes in condition, significance, value and effect could cause our actual results to differ materially from our anticipated outcomes. Although we believe that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove inaccurate. Therefore, we can give no assurance that the results implied by these forward-looking statements will be realized. The inclusion of forward-looking information should not be regarded as our representation that the future events, plans or expectations contemplated by us will be achieved. Furthermore, past performance in operations and share price is not necessarily indicative of future performance. We disclaim any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus or contained in the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

You should carefully review the risk factors included in other reports or documents filed by us from time to time with the SEC, particularly our Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our Current Reports on Form 8-K.

Solectron Corporation

We provide electronics manufacturing and supply chain services to original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs, around the world. As a value-added contract manufacturing partner to industry leading OEMs, our customers contract with us to build their products or to obtain services related to product design, manufacturing and post-manufacturing requirements.

Industry Overview

The electronics manufacturing services, or EMS, industry is comprised of companies that provide a broad range of manufacturing services to OEMs. According to International Data Corporation, the global EMS market was estimated to be $105.5 billion of revenue in 2004 and is expected to grow to $178.0 billion of revenue by 2009, representing a compound annual growth rate of 11%.

Electronics OEMs and those that design products with a significant percentage of electronic components are experiencing continuous pressure to be more competitive. As OEMs focus on their core competencies of product development, sales and marketing and consulting services, managing a supply chain is often challenging. OEMs have increasingly turned to EMS companies for supply chain management solutions and, in response, EMS companies have expanded their capabilities from manufacturing components or partial assemblies to providing more complex manufacturing and supply chain services. By outsourcing their supply chain, OEMs are able to focus on their core competencies, while leveraging the supply chain expertise of EMS providers.

Today, leading EMS companies have global footprints and offer comprehensive product lifecycle services including: front-end design and new product introduction, engineering and volume manufacturing, final system assembly and test, direct order fulfillment, after-market product services and support, and global supply chain management. Overall EMS market growth is expected to be driven by continued outsourcing in traditional EMS end markets such as computing and storage, networking and communications as well as increased levels of adoption of outsourced manufacturing strategies from OEMs in non-traditional end markets such as automotive, medical, military/aerospace and industrial.

We provide the following benefits to OEMs to support the trend of increased outsourcing:

•  Manufacturing and service technologies

•  Faster time-to-market

•  Lower costs

•  Flexibility and responsiveness

•  Consistent quality

•  Better asset utilization

2

•  Focused resource allocation

•  Cost-effective global capabilities

•  Environmental compliance

Summary of the Exchange Offer

The Initial Offering of Original Notes	On February 21, 2006, we issued, in a private placement, $150,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 8.00% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2016 guaranteed by Solectron Corporation, which we refer to as the original notes.
Registration Rights Agreement	Pursuant to the registration rights agreement between us, Financeco and the initial purchasers entered into in connection with the initial private placement, we have agreed to offer to exchange the original notes for up to $150,000,000 aggregate principal amount of registered 8.00% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2016 guaranteed by Solectron Corporation, which we refer to as the exchange notes. We have filed a registration statement of which this prospectus is a part to meet our obligation under the registration rights agreement. If we fail to perform our obligations under the registration rights agreement, holders of the original notes will be entitled to certain payments as liquidated damages.
The Exchange Offer	We are offering to exchange the exchange notes, which have been registered under the Securities Act, for the same aggregate principal amount of the original notes.
	The original notes may be tendered only in $1,000 increments. We will exchange the applicable exchange notes for all original notes that are validly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the expiration of the exchange offer. We will cause the exchange to be effected promptly after the expiration date of the exchange offer.
	The exchange notes will evidence the same debt as the original notes and will be issued under and entitled to the benefits of the same indenture that governs the original notes. Holders of the original notes do not have any appraisal or dissenter rights in connection with the exchange offer. Upon exchange, the exchange notes will not be subject to transfer restrictions, and holders of original notes that have tendered and had their original notes accepted in the exchange offer will have no further registration rights.
If You Fail to Exchange Your Original Notes	If you do not exchange your original notes for exchange notes in the exchange offer, you will continue to be subject to the restrictions on transfer provided in the original notes and indenture governing those notes. In general, you may not offer or sell your original notes unless they are registered under the federal securities laws or are sold in a transaction exempt from or not subject to the registration requirements of the federal securities laws and applicable state securities laws.
Procedures for Tendering Notes	If you wish to tender your original notes for exchange notes and you hold your original notes in book-entry form, you must request your participant of the Depositary Trust Company, or DTC, to, on your behalf, instead of physically completing and signing the letter of transmittal and delivering the letter and your original notes to the exchange agent, electronically transmit an acceptance through DTC’s Automated Tender Offer Program or ATOP. If your original notes are held in book-entry form and are registered in the name of a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee, we urge

4

	you to contact that person promptly if you wish to tender your original notes pursuant to this exchange offer.
	If you wish to tender your original notes for exchange notes and you hold your original notes in certificated form, you must:
	• complete and sign the enclosed letter of transmittal by following the related instructions, and
	• send the letter of transmittal, as directed in the instructions, together with any other required documents, to the exchange agent either (1) with the original notes to be tendered, or (2) in compliance with the specified procedures for guaranteed delivery of the original notes.
	Please do not send your letter of transmittal or certificates representing your original notes to us. Those documents should be sent only to the exchange agent. Questions regarding how to tender and requests for information should be directed to the exchange agent. For a discussion of the procedure for tendering your original notes, see the subsection entitled “The Exchange Offer — Exchange Agent” below.
Resale of the Exchange Notes	Except as provided below, we believe that the exchange notes may be offered for resale, resold and otherwise transferred by you without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act so long as:
	• the exchange notes are being acquired by you in the ordinary course of your business,
	• you are not participating, do not intend to participate, and have no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the exchange notes issued to you in the exchange offer,
	• you are not an affiliate of the issuer or the guarantor,
	• you are not a broker-dealer tendering original notes acquired directly from us or our affiliates for your account, and
	• you are not prohibited by law or any policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) from participating in the exchange offer.
	Our belief is based on interpretations by the staff of the SEC, as set forth in no-action letters issued to third parties that are not related to us. The SEC has not considered this exchange offer in the context of a no-action letter. We cannot assure you that the SEC would make similar determinations with respect to this exchange offer. If any of these conditions are not satisfied, or if our belief is not accurate, and you transfer any exchange notes issued to you in the exchange offer without delivering a resale prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act or without an exemption from registration of your exchange notes from those requirements, you may incur liability under the Securities Act. We will not assume, nor will we indemnify you against, any such liability.
	Each broker-dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account in exchange for original notes, where such original notes were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes. See “Plan of Distribution”.

5

Record Date	We mailed this prospectus and the related offer documents to the registered holders of the original notes on          , 2006.
Interest on the Exchange Notes and the Original Notes	The exchange notes will bear interest from the most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid on the original notes or, if not yet paid, from February 21, 2006. Interest on the original notes accepted for exchange will cease to accrue upon the issuance of the exchange notes.
Expiration Date	The exchange offer will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on          , 2006, unless we decide to extend the expiration date.
Conditions to the Exchange Offer	The exchange offer is subject to customary conditions. This exchange offer is not conditioned upon any minimum principal amount of the original notes being tendered.
Withdrawal Rights	You may withdraw the tender of your original notes at any time before the expiration date of the exchange offer. You must follow the withdrawal procedures as described under the heading “The Exchange Offer — Withdrawal of Tenders.”
Federal Income Tax Considerations	The exchange of original notes for the exchange notes in the exchange offer will not be a taxable event for U.S. federal income tax purposes. For a discussion of federal income tax considerations in connection with the exchange offer, see the section titled “Certain Federal Income Tax Considerations” below.
Use of Proceeds	Neither we nor Financeco will receive any proceeds from the issuance of the exchange notes for the original notes in the exchange offer. We will pay all of our expenses incident to the exchange offer.
Exchange Agent	U.S. Bank National Association, the trustee under the indenture governing the notes, is serving as exchange agent for the exchange offer.

The Exchange Notes

The form and terms of the exchange notes are the same as the form and terms of the original notes, except that the exchange notes will be registered under the Securities Act.

The exchange notes represent the same debt as the original notes for which they are being exchanged. Both the original notes and the exchange notes, collectively referred to as the notes, are governed by the same indenture.

The Issuer	Solectron Global Finance LTD (Financeco or issuer). Financeco is an indirect 100%-owned finance subsidiary of Solectron Corporation that has no independent assets, operations, revenues or cash flows and was formed for the sole purpose of issuing debt securities.
Securities Offered	$150.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior subordinated notes due 2016.

Ranking	The exchange notes are Financeco’s general, unsecured obligations. The exchange notes:
	• are subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future general unsubordinated obligations of Financeco;
	• are effectively subordinated to all of Financeco’s existing and future secured debt to the extent of the assets, if any, securing such debt; and
	• rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future senior, subordinated indebtedness of Financeco.
Parent Guarantee	The exchange notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Solectron, Financeco’s indirect parent company. The parent guarantee:
	• will be subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future general unsubordinated obligations of Solectron;
	• will be effectively subordinated to all of Solectron’s existing and future secured debt to the extent of the assets securing such debt, including all borrowings, if any, under Solectron’s senior, secured credit facility;
	• will be structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities, including trade payables, of Solectron’s subsidiaries; and
	• ranks equally in right of payment with all existing and future senior, subordinated indebtedness of Solectron.
	As of February 28, 2006, after giving effect to this offering and the use of proceeds therefrom, Solectron would have had outstanding an aggregate of approximately $643 million of Senior Debt (as defined elsewhere in this prospectus). As of February 28, 2006, the aggregate amount of liabilities of Solectron’s subsidiaries, including trade payables but excluding intercompany liabilities, was approximately $2.3 billion.
Optional Redemption	Financeco and Solectron will each have the option to redeem the exchange notes, in whole or in part, at any time on or after March 15, 2011, in each case at the redemption prices described in this prospectus under the heading “Description of the Exchange Notes — Optional Redemption,” plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the date of the redemption. Prior to March 15, 2011, Financeco and Solectron will each have the option to redeem the notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the greater of 100% of principal amount or the make-whole redemption price described in this prospectus, in each case, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.
	In addition, prior to March 15, 2009, Financeco or Solectron may, at any time or from time to time, redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the exchange notes with the net proceeds of a public common stock offering by Solectron at a redemption price of 108% of the principal amount of exchange notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, if at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of the exchange notes issued under the indenture remains outstanding after such redemption and the redemption occurs within 90 days of the closing of such equity offering.

7

Change of Control	If a change of control event occurs, each holder of exchange notes may require Financeco to repurchase all or a portion of its notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the exchange notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase.
Certain Covenants	The indenture governing the exchange notes contains certain covenants which, among other things, restrict Financeco’s ability and the ability of Solectron and Solectron’s restricted subsidiaries to:
	• incur additional indebtedness;
	• pay dividends;
	• make distributions in respect of Financeco’s, Solectron’s or Solectron’s restricted subsidiaries’ capital stock;
	• make other restricted payments;
	• give subsidiary guarantees of our other debt;
	• enter into transactions with affiliates or related persons;
	• sell assets;
	• enter into sale and leaseback transactions;
	• create liens; and
	• consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of Financeco’s, Solectron’s or Solectron’s subsidiaries.
	All of Solectron’s subsidiaries are currently restricted subsidiaries, as defined in the indenture. All of these covenants are subject to important exceptions and qualifications. See “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to the Exchange Notes” and “Description of the Exchange Notes” in this prospectus.
Covenant Suspension	If on any date following the date of the indenture the exchange notes are rated Baa3 or above by Moody’s Investor Services and BBB− or above by Standard & Poor’s and, subject to certain exceptions, no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing, many of the foregoing covenants would be suspended during the time the exchange notes are rated at those levels. See “Description of the Exchange Notes — Covenant Suspension” in this prospectus.
Use of Proceeds	We used the net proceeds from the offering of the original notes, together with cash on hand of approximately $4.0 million, to repay at maturity Solectron’s outstanding 7.375% Senior Notes due March 1, 2006. Neither Financeco nor Solectron will receive any proceeds from the exchange offer.
No listing of the Exchange Notes	We do not intend to list the original notes or the exchange notes on any securities exchange or the Nasdaq National Market.

RISK FACTORS

Risks Related to Our Business

This offering involves a high degree of risk. In addition to the other information contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus, you should carefully consider the following risk factors, before deciding whether to exchange original notes for exchange notes. If any of the events or circumstances described below actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could suffer, and the trading price of the securities offered by this prospectus could decline or become more volatile and you could lose part or all of your investment. The risks outlined below are not the only risks and uncertainties we face.

Most of our sales come from a small number of customers; if we lose any of these customers, our net sales could decline significantly.

Most of our annual net sales come from a small number of our customers. Our ten largest customers accounted for approximately 61.6%, 59.8%, 60.6%, 60.8 % and 61.5% of net sales from continuing operations in fiscal years 2005, 2004, 2003, and the first half of fiscal years 2006 and 2005. During the first and second quarter of fiscal 2006, two of these customers each individually accounted for more than ten percent of our net sales. Any material delay, cancellation or reduction of orders from these or other major customers could cause our net sales to decline significantly, and we may not be able to reduce the accompanying expenses at the same time. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to retain any of our largest customers or any other accounts, or that we will be able to realize the expected revenues under existing or anticipated supply agreements with these customers. Our business, market share, consolidated financial condition and results of operations will continue to depend significantly on our ability to obtain orders from new customers, retain existing customers, realize expected revenues under existing and anticipated supply agreements, as well as on the consolidated financial condition and success of our customers and their customers.

Sales may not improve, and could decline, in future periods if there is continued or resumed weakness in customer demand, particularly in the communications, computing and consumer sectors, resulting from domestic or worldwide economic conditions.

Our customers may cancel their orders, change production quantities or locations, or delay production.

To remain competitive, EMS companies must provide their customers increasingly rapid product turnaround, at increasingly competitive prices. We generally do not have long-term contractual commitments from our top customers. As a result, we cannot guarantee that we will continue to receive any orders or revenues from our customers. Customers may cancel orders at their sole discretion, change production quantities or delay production for a number of reasons outside of our control. Many of our customers have experienced from time to time significant decreases in demand for their products and services, as well as continual material price competition and sales price erosion. This volatility has resulted, and will continue to result, in our customers delaying purchases on the products we manufacture for them, and placing purchase orders for lower volumes of products than previously anticipated. Cancellations, reductions or delays by a significant customer or by a group of customers would seriously harm our results of operations by lowering, eliminating or deferring revenue without substantial offsetting reductions in our costs thereby reducing our profitability. In addition, customers may require that manufacturing of their products be transitioned from one of our facilities to another of our facilities to achieve cost reductions and other objectives. Such transfers, if unanticipated or not properly executed, could result in various inefficiencies and increased costs, including excess capacity and overhead at one facility and capacity constraints and related strains on our resources at the other, disruption and delays in product deliveries and sales, deterioration in product quality and customer satisfaction, and increased manufacturing and scrap costs all of which would have the effect of reducing our profits.

11

We may not be able to sell excess or obsolete inventory to customers or third parties, which could have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial condition.

The majority of our inventory purchases and commitments are based upon demand forecasts that our customers provide to us. The customers’ forecasts, and any changes to the forecasts, including cancellations, may lead to on-hand inventory quantities and on-order purchase commitments that are in excess of the customers’ revised needs, or on-hand inventory that becomes obsolete. We generally enter into agreements with our significant customers. Under these agreements, the extent of our customer’s responsibility for excess or obsolete inventory related to raw materials that were previously purchased or ordered to meet that customer’s demand forecast is defined. If our customers do not comply with their contractual obligations to purchase excess or obsolete inventory back from us and we are unable to use or sell such inventory, or if we are unsuccessful in obtaining our customer’s agreement to purchase such inventory contractually, our consolidated financial condition could be materially harmed. Some of our customers are in the communications industry, an industry that in recent years has experienced declining revenue, large losses, negative cash flows, and several bankruptcies or defaults on borrowing arrangements. There is a risk that, in the future, these or other customers may not purchase inventory back from us despite contractual obligations, which could harm our consolidated financial condition if we are unable to sell the inventory at carrying value. In addition, enforcement of these supply agreements may result in material expenses, delays in payment for inventory and/or disruptions in our customer relationships.

In addition, we are responsible for excess and obsolete inventory resulting from inventory purchases in excess of inventory needed to meet customer demand forecasts at the time the purchase commitments were made, as well as any inventory purchases outside that provided for in our agreements. For inventory which is not the customer’s responsibility, provisions are made when required to reduce any such excess or obsolete inventory to its estimated net realizable value based on the quantity of such inventory on hand, our customers’ latest forecasts of production requirements, our assessment of available disposition alternatives such as use of components on other programs, the ability and cost to return components to the vendor and our estimates of resale values and opportunities. These assessments are based upon various assumptions and market conditions which are subject to rapid change, and/or which may ultimately prove to be inaccurate. Any material changes in our assumptions or market conditions could have a significant effect on our estimates of net realizable value, could necessitate material changes in our provisions for excess and obsolete inventory, and could have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial condition. In addition, in the normal course of business, bona fide disagreements may arise over the amount and/or timing of such claims, and in order to avoid litigation expenses, collection risks, or disruption of customer relationships, we may elect to settle such disputes for lesser amounts than we believe we should be entitled to recover. In these instances, we must bear the economic loss of any such excess or obsolete inventory, which could have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial condition.

Our non-U.S. locations represent a significant portion of our sales; we are exposed to risks associated with operating internationally.

Approximately 70.1%, 72.3%, 67.3%, 67.6% and 70.3% of our of our net sales from continuing operations are the result of services and products manufactured in countries outside the United States during fiscal years 2005, 2004, 2003 and the first half of fiscal years 2006 and 2005, respectively. As a result of our foreign sales and facilities, our operations are subject to a variety of risks and costs that are unique to international operations, including the following:

•  adverse movement of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar in which our results are reported;

•  import and export duties, and value added taxes;

•  import and export regulation changes that could erode our profit margins or restrict exports and/or imports;

•  potential restrictions on the transfer of funds;

•  government and license requirements governing the transfer of technology and products abroad;

•  disruption of local labor supply and/or transportation services;

•  inflexible employee contracts in the event of business downturns;

12

•  the burden and cost of compliance with import and export regulations and foreign laws;

•  economic and political risks in emerging or developing economies; and

•  risks of conflict and terrorism that could disrupt our or our customers’ and suppliers’ businesses.

We have been granted tax holidays, subject to some conditions, for our Malaysian site, effective through January 2012, and our Singapore sites, effective through March 2011. These tax holidays are effective for various terms and are subject to some conditions. It is possible that the current tax holidays will be terminated or modified or that future tax holidays that we may seek will not be granted. If the current tax holidays are terminated or modified, or if additional tax holidays are not granted in the future or when our current tax holidays expire, our future effective income tax rate could increase.

We are exposed to general economic conditions, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, operating results and consolidated financial condition.

As a result of the recent economic conditions in the United States and internationally, and reduced capital spending as well as uncertain end-market demand, our sales have been difficult to forecast with accuracy. Though we have seen some recovery in the markets that we serve, if there were to be continued weakness, or any further deterioration in the markets in which we operate or the business or financial condition of our customers, it would have a material adverse impact on our business, operating results and consolidated financial condition. In addition, if the economic conditions in the United States and the other markets we serve worsen, we may experience a material adverse impact on our business, operating results and consolidated financial condition.

Possible fluctuation of operating results from quarter to quarter and factors out of our control could affect the market price of our securities.

Our quarterly earnings and/or stock price may fluctuate in the future due to a number of factors including the following:

•  differences in the profitability of the types of manufacturing services we provide. For example, high velocity and low complexity printed circuit boards and systems assembly services have lower gross profit than low volume/complex printed circuit boards and systems assembly services;

•  our ability to maximize the hours of use of our equipment and facilities is dependent on the duration of the production run time for each job and customer;

•  the amount of automation that we can use in the manufacturing process for cost reduction varies, depending upon the complexity of the product being made;

•  our customers’ demand for our products and their ability to take delivery of our products and make timely payments for delivered products;

•  our ability to optimize the ordering of inventory as to timing and amount to avoid holding inventory in excess of immediate production needs;

•  our ability to offer technologically advanced, cost-effective, quick response manufacturing services;

•  our ability to drive down manufacturing costs in accordance with customer and market requirements is dependent upon our ability to apply Lean Six Sigma operating principles;

•  fluctuations in the availability and pricing of components;

•  timing of expenditures in anticipation of increased sales;

•  cyclicality in our target markets;

•  fluctuations in our market share;

•  fluctuations in currency exchange rates;

•  expenses and disruptions associated with acquisitions and divestitures;

13

•  announcements of operating results and business conditions by our customers;

•  announcements by our competitors relating to new customers or technological innovation or new services;

•  economic developments in the electronics industry as a whole;

•  credit rating and stock analyst downgrades;

•  our ability to successfully integrate changes to our enterprise resource planning, or ERP, system;

•  political and economic developments in countries in which we have operations; and

•  general market conditions.

If our operating results in the future are below the expectations of securities analysts and investors, the market price of our outstanding securities could be harmed.

If we incur more restructuring-related charges than currently anticipated, our consolidated financial condition and results of operations may suffer.

We continually evaluate our business and strategic footprint and our cost structure relative to our projected financial results and customer demand. As a result of our evaluations, we have taken restructuring activities in the past for which we incurred restructuring and impairment costs relating to continuing operations of approximately $604.8 million, $177.9 million, $91.1 million, $43.9 million and $6.5 million of restructuring and impairment costs relating to continuing operations during fiscal years 2003, 2004, 2005 and the first half of fiscal years 2005 and 2006, respectively, and we may decide to take restructuring activities in the future which could consist of cash and non-cash charges. These charges have been substantial in the past and may be substantial in the future. If our estimates about previous restructuring charges prove to be inadequate or we decide to undertake additional restructuring activities, our consolidated financial condition, profitability and results of operations may suffer.

Failure to attract and retain key personnel and skilled associates could hurt our operations.

Our continued success depends to a large extent upon the efforts and abilities of key managerial and technical associates. Losing the services of key personnel could harm us. Our business also depends upon our ability to continue to attract and retain key executives, senior managers and skilled associates. Failure to do so could harm our business.

We depend on limited or sole source suppliers for critical components. The inability to obtain sufficient components as required, and under favorable purchase terms, would cause harm to our business.

We are dependent on certain suppliers, including limited and sole source suppliers, to provide key components used in our products. We have experienced, and may in the future experience, delays in component deliveries, which in turn could cause delays in product shipments and require the redesign of certain products. In addition, if we are unable to procure necessary components under favorable purchase terms, including at favorable prices and with the order lead-times needed for the efficient and profitable operation of our factories, our results of operations could suffer. The electronics industry has experienced in the past, and may experience in the future, shortages in semiconductor devices, including application-specific integrated circuits, DRAM, SRAM, flash memory, certain passive devices such as tantalum capacitors, and other commodities that may be caused by such conditions as overall market demand surges or supplier production capacity constraints. The inability to continue to obtain sufficient components as and when required, or to develop alternative sources as and when required, could cause delays, disruptions or reductions in product shipments or require product redesigns which could damage relationships with current or prospective customers, and increase inventory levels and costs, thereby causing harm to our business.

We potentially bear the risk of price increases associated with shortages in electronics components.

At various times, there have been shortages of components in the electronics industry leading to increased component prices. One of the services that we perform for many customers is purchasing electronics components

14

used in the manufacturing of the customers’ products. As a result of this service, we potentially bear the risk of price increases for these components if we are unable to purchase components at the pricing level anticipated to support the margins assumed in our agreements with our customers.

Our net sales could decline if our competitors provide comparable manufacturing services and improved products at a lower cost.

We compete with a number of different contract manufacturers, depending on the type of service we provide or the geographic locale of our operations. This industry is intensely competitive and some of our competitors may have greater manufacturing, financial, R&D and/or marketing resources than we have. In addition, we may not be able to offer prices as low as some of our competitors because those competitors may have lower cost structures as a result of their geographic location or the services they provide, or because such competitors are willing to accept business at lower margins in order to utilize more of their excess capacity. In that event, our net sales would decline. We also expect our competitors to continue to improve the performance of their current products or services, to reduce their current products or service sales prices and to introduce new products or services that may offer greater value-added performance and improved pricing. If we are unable to improve our capabilities substantially, any of these could cause a decline in sales, loss of market acceptance of our products or services and corresponding loss of market share, or profit margin compression. We have experienced instances in which customers have transferred certain portions of their business to competitors in response to more attractive pricing quotations than we have been willing to offer, and there can be no assurance that we will not lose business in the future in response to such competitive pricing or other inducements which may be offered by our competitors.

We depend on the continuing trend of OEMs to outsource.

A substantial factor in our past revenue growth was attributable to the transfer of manufacturing and supply-based management activities from our OEM customers. Future growth is partially dependent on new outsourcing opportunities. To the extent that these opportunities are not available, our future growth would be unfavorably impacted.

Our strategic relationships with major customers create risks.

In the past several years, we completed several strategic transactions with OEM customers. Under these arrangements, we generally acquired inventory, equipment and other assets from the OEM, and leased (or in some cases acquired) their manufacturing facilities, while simultaneously entering into multi-year supply agreements for the production of their products. There has been strong competition among EMS companies for these transactions, and this competition may continue to be a factor in customers’ selection of their EMS providers. These transactions contributed to a significant portion of our past revenue growth, as well as to a significant portion of our more recent restructuring charges and goodwill and intangible asset impairments. While we do not anticipate our acquisitions of OEM plants and equipment in the near future to return to the levels at which they occurred in the recent past, there may be occasions on which we determine it to be advantageous to complete acquisitions in selected geographic and/or industry markets. As part of such arrangements, we would typically enter into supply agreements with the divesting OEMs, but such agreements generally do not require any minimum volumes of purchases by the OEM and the actual volume of purchases may be less than anticipated. Arrangements which may be entered into with divesting OEMs typically would involve many risks, including the following:

•  we may pay a purchase price to the divesting OEMs that exceeds the value we are ultimately able to realize from the future business of the OEM;

•  the integration into our business of the acquired assets and facilities may be time-consuming and costly;

•  we, rather than the divesting OEM, would bear the risk of excess capacity;

•  we may not achieve anticipated cost reductions and efficiencies;

•  we may be unable to meet the expectations of the OEM as to volume, product quality, timeliness and cost reductions; and

15

•  if demand for the OEM’s products declines, the OEM may reduce its volume of purchases, and we may not be able to sufficiently reduce the expenses of operating the facility or use the facility to provide services to other OEMs, and we might find it appropriate to close, rather than continue to operate, the facility, and any such actions would require us to incur significant restructuring and/or impairment charges.

As a result of these and other risks, we may be unable to achieve anticipated levels of profitability under such arrangements and they may not result in material revenues or contribute positively to our earnings.

Business disruptions could seriously harm our future revenue and financial condition and increase our costs and expenses.

Our worldwide operations could be subject to natural disasters and other business disruptions, which could seriously harm our revenue and financial condition and increase our costs and expenses. We are predominantly self-insured for losses and interruptions caused by earthquakes, power shortages, communications failures, water shortages, tsunamis, floods, typhoons, hurricanes, fires, extreme weather conditions and other natural or manmade disasters.

If we are unable to manage future acquisitions and cost-effectively run our operations, our profitability could be adversely affected.

Our ability to manage and integrate future acquisitions will require successful integration of such acquisitions into our manufacturing and logistics infrastructure, and may require enhancements or upgrades of accounting and other internal management systems and the implementation of a variety of procedures and controls. We cannot guarantee that significant problems in these areas will not occur. Any failure to enhance or expand these systems and implement such procedures and controls in an efficient manner and at a pace consistent with our business activities could harm our consolidated financial condition and results of operations. In addition, we may experience inefficiencies from the management of geographically dispersed facilities and incur substantial infrastructure and working capital costs.

Notwithstanding our recent divestiture of certain businesses, we will remain subject to certain indemnification obligations for a period of time after completion of the divestitures.

The sale agreements for our divested businesses contain indemnification provisions pursuant to which we may be required to indemnify the buyer of the divested business for liabilities, losses or expenses arising out of breaches of covenants and certain breaches of representations and warranties relating to the condition of the business prior to and at the time of sale. While we believe, based upon the facts presently known to us, that we have made adequate provision for any such potential indemnification obligations, it is possible that other facts may become known in the future which may subject us to claims for additional liabilities or expenses beyond those presently anticipated and provided for. Should any such unexpected liabilities or expenses be of a material amount, our finances could be adversely affected.

If we have a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting, investors could lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements, which could result in a decrease in the value of our securities.

One or more material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting could occur or be identified in the future. In addition, because of inherent limitations, our internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements, and any projections of any evaluation of effectiveness of internal controls to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with our policies or procedures may deteriorate. If we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, including any failure to implement or difficulty in implementing required new or improved controls, our business and results of operations could be harmed, we could fail to be able to provide reasonable assurance as to our financial results or meet our reporting obligations and there could be a material adverse effect on the price of our securities.

If our products are subject to warranty or liability claims, our business reputation may be damaged and we may incur significant costs.

We may experience defects in our designs or deficiencies with respect to our manufacturing services. In certain of our manufacturing service contracts, we provide a warranty against such defects or deficiencies. We may be exposed to warranty and/or manufacturers’ liability claims as a result of these defects and/or deficiencies, and some claims may relate to customer product recalls. A successful claim for damages arising as a result of such defects or deficiencies for which we are not insured or where the damages exceed our insurance coverage or any material claim for which insurance coverage is denied or limited and for which indemnification is not available could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. A successful claim for such damages, or a product recall conducted by one of our customers, also could have an adverse effect on our business reputation. A claim, regardless of merit, might be time-consuming and expensive to resolve.

Our design and engineering services may result in additional exposure to product liability, intellectual property infringement and other claims.

We are offering more design services, primarily those relating to products that we manufacture for our customers, and we offer design services related to collaborative design manufacturing and turnkey solutions. Providing such services can expose us to different or greater potential liabilities than those we face when providing our regular manufacturing services. With the growth of our design services business, we have increased exposure to potential product liability claims resulting from injuries caused by defects in products we design, as well as potential claims that products we design infringe third-party intellectual property rights. Such claims could subject us to significant liability for damages and, regardless of their merits, could be time- consuming and expensive to resolve. We also may have greater potential exposure from warranty claims, and from product recalls due to problems caused by product design. Costs associated with possible product liability claims, intellectual property infringement claims and product recalls could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

We are exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rate fluctuations.

We have currency exposure arising from both sales and purchases denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of our sites. Fluctuations in the rate of exchange between the currency of the exposure and the functional currency of our sites could seriously harm our business, operating results and consolidated financial condition.

As of February 28, 2006, we had outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts with a total notional amount of approximately $391.0 million. The change in value of the foreign exchange forward contracts resulting from a hypothetical 10% change in foreign exchange rates would be offset by the remeasurement of the related balance sheet items, the result of which would not be significant.

The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal, while at the same time maximize yields without significantly increasing risk. To achieve this objective, we maintain our portfolio of cash equivalents in a variety of securities, including government and corporate obligations, certificates of deposit and money market funds. As of February 28, 2006, substantially our entire total portfolio was scheduled to mature in less than three months. A hypothetical 10% change in interest rates would not have a material effect on the fair value of our investment portfolios.

Our long-term debt instruments are currently subject to fixed interest rates and the amount of principal to be repaid at maturity is also fixed. Therefore, although we are not currently exposed to variable interest rates related to our long-term debt instruments, we may become exposed if there were to be material borrowings under our credit facility or we take actions such that our other long-term debt instruments become exposed to variable interest rates.

Failure to comply with environmental regulations could harm our business.

As a company in the electronics manufacturing services industry, we are subject to a variety of environmental regulations, including those relating to the use, storage, discharge and disposal of hazardous chemicals used during our manufacturing process as well as air quality and water quality regulations, restrictions on water use, and storm

17

water regulations. We are also required to comply with laws and regulations relating to occupational safety and health, product disposal and product content and labeling. Although we have never sustained any significant loss as a result of non-compliance with such regulations, any failure by us to comply with environmental laws and regulations could result in liabilities or the suspension of production. In addition, these laws and regulations could restrict our ability to expand our facilities or require us to acquire costly equipment or incur other significant costs to comply with regulations.

We own and lease some contaminated sites (for some of which we have been indemnified by third parties for required remediation), sites for which there is a risk of the presence of contamination, and sites with some levels of contamination for which we may be liable and which may or may not ultimately require any remediation. In addition, we have been and are potentially liable for contamination at sites where we have disposed of hazardous materials. We have obtained environmental insurance to reduce potential environmental liability exposures posed by some of our operations and facilities. We believe, based on our current knowledge, that the cost of any groundwater or soil clean up that may be required at our facilities or at any disposal sites would not materially harm our business, consolidated financial condition and results of operations. Nevertheless, the process of remediating contamination in soil and groundwater at facilities is costly and cannot be estimated with high levels of confidence, and there can be no assurance that the costs of such activities would not harm our business, consolidated financial condition and results of operations in the future.

In general, we are not directly responsible for the compliance of our manufactured products with laws like the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive relating to the collection and recycling of certain electronic products and the Restrictions of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive relating to the hazardous materials content of certain electronic products, both adopted by the European Union, as well as similar laws being adopted in other countries (including the United States). These laws generally apply to our OEM customers though OEM customers may require us to certify that our products meet the requirements of the laws. Solectron also may provide compliance-related services with respect to WEEE, RoHS and similar laws to our customers upon request. Failing to have the capability of delivering the products which comply with these present and future environmental laws and regulations could restrict our ability to expand facilities, or could require us to acquire costly equipment or to incur other significant expenses to comply with environmental regulations, and could impair our relations with our customers. Moreover, to the extent we are found non-compliant with any environmental laws and regulations applicable to our activities, we may incur substantial fines and penalties.

We may not be able adequately to protect or enforce our intellectual property rights and could become involved in intellectual property disputes.

In the past we have been and may from time to time continue to be notified of claims that we may be infringing patents, copyrights or other intellectual property rights owned by other parties. In the event of an infringement claim, we may be required to spend a significant amount of money to develop a non-infringing alternative, to obtain licenses, and/or to defend against the claim. We may not be successful in developing such an alternative or obtaining a license on reasonable terms, if at all. Any litigation, even where an infringement claim is without merit, could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources. Accordingly, the resolution or adjudication of intellectual property disputes could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

Our ability to effectively compete may be affected by our ability to protect our proprietary information. We hold a number of patents, patent applications, and various trade secrets and license rights. These patents, trade secrets, and license rights may not provide meaningful protection for our manufacturing processes and equipment innovations, or we might find it necessary to initiate litigation proceedings to protect our intellectual property rights. Any such litigation could be lengthy and costly and could harm our consolidated financial condition.

Rating downgrades may make it more expensive for us to borrow money.

Our issuer credit rating is “B+” with a positive outlook by Standard & Poor’s and our long-term corporate family rating is “B1” with stable outlook by Moody’s. These credit ratings are subject to change at the discretion of the rating agencies. If our credit ratings were downgraded, it would increase our cost of capital should we borrow

18

under our revolving lines of credit, and it may make it more expensive for us to raise additional capital in the future. Such capital raising may be on terms that may not be acceptable to us or capital may not be available to us at all. Any future adverse rating agency actions with respect to our ratings could have an adverse effect on the market price of our securities, our ability to compete for new business, our cost of capital, and our ability to access capital markets.

Unanticipated changes in our tax rates or in our exposure to additional income tax liabilities could affect our operating results and financial condition.

We are subject to income taxes both in the United States and various foreign jurisdictions. Our effective tax rates could be adversely affected by changes in tax laws and increases in the percentages of our earnings from countries with higher tax rates, as well as other factors. If any of these changes were to occur, our income tax provision, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected.

Risks Related to the Exchange Notes

If you fail to follow the exchange offer procedures, your original notes will not be accepted for exchange.

We may not accept your original notes for exchange if you do not follow the exchange offer procedures. We will issue exchange notes as part of this exchange offer only after timely receipt of your original notes, a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal and all other required documents or if you comply with the guaranteed delivery procedures for tendering your original notes. Therefore, if you want to tender your original notes, please allow sufficient time to ensure timely delivery. If we do not receive your original notes, letter of transmittal, and all other required documents by the expiration date of the exchange offer, or you do not otherwise comply with the guaranteed delivery procedures for tendering your original notes, we will not accept your original notes for exchange. We are under no duty to give notification of defects or irregularities with respect to the tenders of original notes for exchange. If there are defects or irregularities with respect to your tender of original notes, we will not accept your original notes for exchange unless we decide in our sole discretion to waive such defects or irregularities.

If you fail to exchange your original notes for exchange notes, your original notes will continue to be subject to the existing transfer restrictions and you may not be able to sell them.

We did not register the original notes, nor do we intend to do so following the exchange offer. Original notes that are not tendered will continue to be subject to the existing transfer restrictions and may be transferred only in limited circumstances under the securities laws. As a result, if you hold original notes after the exchange offer, you may not be able to sell them. To the extent any original notes are tendered and accepted in the exchange offer, the trading market, if any, for the original notes that remain outstanding after the exchange offer may be adversely and materially affected due to a reduction in market liquidity.

There is no established trading market for the exchange notes, which means there are uncertainties regarding the price and terms on which a bidder could dispose of the exchange notes, if at all.

There is no existing trading market for the exchange notes and we do not expect to list them on any securities exchange or on the Nasdaq National Market. Although the initial purchasers of the original notes informed us that they intend to make a market in each series of notes, they have no obligation to do so and may cease their market-making at any time without notice. In addition, market-making will be subject to the limits imposed by the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and may be limited during this exchange offer and the pendency of any shelf registration statement. The liquidity of the trading market in the exchange notes, and the market price quoted for the exchange notes, may be adversely affected by:

•  changes in the overall market for debt securities;

•  changes in our financial performance or prospects;

•  the prospects for companies in our industry generally;

•  the number of holders or amounts outstanding of the exchange notes;

19

•  the interest of securities dealers in making a market for the exchange notes; and

•  prevailing interest rates.

As a result, you cannot be sure that an active trading market will develop for the exchange notes.

Our substantial debt could adversely affect our cash flow and prevent us from fulfilling our obligations.

We have, and will continue to have after the offering of the exchange notes, significant amounts of outstanding indebtedness and interest expense. Our level of indebtedness presents risks to investors, including the possibility that we may be unable to generate cash sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on our indebtedness when due. As of February 28, 2006, we had (1) consolidated total debt of approximately $856.5 million, and (2) a ratio of total debt to stockholders’ equity of approximately 0.3 to 1.

Our substantial debt could have important consequences, such as:

•  making it more difficult or impossible for us to make payments on the notes or any other indebtedness or obligations;

•  requiring us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations and other capital resources to debt service, thereby reducing our ability to fund working capital, capital expenditures and other cash requirements;

•  increasing our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions;

•  limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes and opportunities in, the electronics manufacturing industry, which may place us at a competitive disadvantage; and

•  limiting our ability to incur additional debt on acceptable terms, if at all.

Subject to specified limitations in the indenture, we and our subsidiaries will be able to incur substantial indebtedness in the future, including our ability to borrow up to $500 million under our secured credit facility and debt we may incur to finance any future acquisitions. If new debt is added to our and our subsidiaries’ current debt levels, the related risks that we and they now face could intensify.

Our ability to generate the cash needed to service our debt obligations depends on a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control.

Our ability to generate the cash needed to service our debt obligations is dependent upon our future performance, which will be subject to financial, business and other factors affecting our operations, many of which are beyond our control. To the extent that we are unable to meet our obligations under our debt, we will be required to restructure or refinance them, seek additional equity financing or sell assets. We may not be able to restructure or refinance our debt, obtain additional financing or sell assets on satisfactory terms or at all.

The agreements covering our existing debt contain, and the indenture for the notes will contain, various covenants that limit our discretion in the operation of our business.

The agreements and instruments governing our existing debt, the notes offered hereby and our secured credit facilities contain and will contain various restrictive covenants that, among other things, require us to comply with or maintain certain financial tests and ratios and restrict our ability to:

•  incur debt;

•  incur or maintain liens;

•  redeem and/or prepay debt;

•  make acquisitions of businesses or entities;

•  make investments, including loans, guarantees and advances;

•  make capital expenditures;

20

•  engage in mergers, consolidations or certain sales of assets;

•  engage in transactions with affiliates;

•  pay dividends or engage in stock redemptions; and

•  enter into certain restrictive agreements.

Our ability to comply with covenants contained in our secured credit facilities, the indenture governing the notes and other indebtedness to which we are or may become a party may be affected by events beyond our control, including prevailing economic, financial and industry conditions. Our failure to comply with our debt-related obligations could cause an event of default which, if not cured or waived, could result in an acceleration of our indebtedness and cross-defaults under our other indebtedness. If all or any part of our debt were to be accelerated, we may not have or be able to obtain sufficient funds to repay it.

Even if we are able to comply with all applicable covenants, the restrictions on our ability to operate our business in our sole discretion could harm our business by, among other things, limiting our ability to take advantage of financings, mergers, acquisitions and other corporate opportunities.

Payment of principal and interest on the exchange notes by Financeco will be unsecured and subordinated to future senior indebtedness. Further, the guarantee of the exchange notes is unsecured and subordinated in right of payment to all of our existing and future senior debt and effectively subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of our subsidiaries.

The exchange notes are subordinated to any future senior indebtedness of Financeco. In addition, our guarantee is unsecured and subordinated in right of payment to all of our existing and future senior debt. As of February 28, 2006, we had $643 million of Senior Debt, as defined elsewhere in this prospectus.

In the event of (1) our liquidation or insolvency, (2) a payment default on our senior debt, (3) a covenant default on our designated senior debt, or (4) acceleration of the guarantee due to an event default, we will make payments on the guarantee only after our senior debt has been paid in full because the guarantee is subordinated to our senior debt. As a result, under certain circumstances we may not have sufficient assets remaining to pay any or all amounts due on the guarantee. In addition, all payments on the exchange notes and guarantee will be blocked in the event of a payment default on designated senior debt and may be blocked for up to 179 consecutive days during any 365-day period in the event of certain non-payment default on designated senior debt.

In addition, our guarantee of Financeco’s obligations under the exchange notes will be structurally subordinated to all liabilities and commitments (including trade payables and lease obligations) of our subsidiaries, whether or not secured. Our right to receive assets of any of our subsidiaries upon the subsidiary’s liquidation or reorganization (and the consequent right of the holders of the exchange notes to participate in those assets) will be structurally subordinated to the claims of that subsidiary’s creditors. Consequently, the exchange notes will be structurally subordinated to all liabilities, including trade payables and lease obligations, of any of our subsidiaries and any subsidiaries that we may in the future acquire or establish. As of February 28, 2006, our subsidiaries had approximately $2.3 billion of liabilities (including trade payables but excluding inter-company liabilities) outstanding.

The exchange notes would be effectively subordinated in right of payment to claims of Financeco’s senior creditors, if any. Currently, Financeco does not have any outstanding senior debt or any assets unrelated to the issuance of the original notes and exchange notes and is not a borrower under our credit facility. The guaranties are also effectively subordinated to all of our existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness.

Our holding company structure makes us dependent on cash flow from our subsidiaries to meet our obligations.

Most of our operations are conducted through, and most of our assets are held by, our subsidiaries; therefore, we are dependent on the cash flow of our subsidiaries to meet our debt obligations, including our obligations under the exchange notes. Our subsidiaries are separate legal entities that will have no obligation to pay any amounts due

21

under the exchange notes or the guarantee or to make any funds available for that purpose, whether by dividends, loans or other payments. The ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or otherwise transfer assets to us is subject to various restrictions, including restrictions under applicable law.

Our subsidiaries will not guarantee the payment of the exchange notes. Except to the extent we may ourselves be a creditor with recognized claims against our subsidiaries, all claims of creditors and holders of preferred stock, if any, of the subsidiaries will have priority with respect to the assets of such subsidiaries over the claims of our creditors, including holders of the exchange notes and with respect to the guarantee.

We may be unable to repay or repurchase the exchange notes.

At maturity, the entire outstanding principal amount of the exchange notes will become due and payable. In addition, if we experience a change in control, as defined in “Description of the Exchange Notes — Repurchase at the Option of Holders — Change of Control,” you may require us to repurchase all or a portion of your exchange notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the exchange notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. At maturity or if a change in control occurs, we may not have sufficient funds or may be unable to arrange for additional financing to pay the principal amount or repurchase price due. Any future borrowing arrangements or agreements relating to debt to which we become a party may contain restrictions on, or prohibitions against, our repayments or repurchases of the exchange notes. If the maturity date or change in control occurs at a time when our other arrangements prohibit us from repaying or repurchasing the exchange notes, we could try to obtain the consent of the lenders under those arrangements, or we could attempt to refinance the borrowings that contain the restrictions. If we do not obtain the necessary consents or refinance these borrowings, we will be unable to repay or repurchase the exchange notes. In that case, our failure to repurchase any tendered exchange notes or repay the exchange notes due upon maturity would constitute an event of default under the indenture.

Provisions of the exchange notes could discourage an acquisition of us by a third party.

Certain provisions of the exchange notes could make it more difficult or more expensive for a third party to acquire us. Upon the occurrence of certain transactions constituting a change in control, holders of the exchange notes will have the right, at their option, to require us to repurchase all of their exchange notes or any portion of the principal amount of such exchange notes in integral multiples of $1,000 at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the exchange notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the exchange notes, we may not enter into certain mergers or acquisitions unless, among other things, the surviving person or entity assumes the payment of the principal of, and interest on the exchange notes.

Many of the covenants contained in the indenture will not be applicable during any period when the exchange notes are rated investment grade by both Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s and no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing.

Many of the covenants in the indenture governing the exchange notes will not apply to us during any period when the exchange notes are rated investment grade by both Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s and no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing. These covenants restrict, among other things, our ability to pay dividends, incur debt and to enter into certain other transactions. There can be no assurance that the exchange notes will ever be rated investment grade, or that if they are rated investment grade, that the exchange notes will maintain such ratings. However, suspension of these covenants would allow us to engage in certain actions that would not have been permitted while these covenants were in force, and the effects of any such actions that we take while these covenants are not in force will be permitted to remain in place even if the exchange notes are subsequently downgraded below investment grade and the covenants are reinstated.

Issuance of the exchange notes and the guarantees may be subject to fraudulent conveyance laws.

Under federal bankruptcy law and comparable provisions of state fraudulent transfer laws, under certain circumstances a court could avoid, or cancel, the exchange notes and any guarantee and order the return of any payments made thereunder to the payor or to a fund for the benefits of its other creditors.

22

A court might take these actions if it found that when the exchange notes or the original notes were issued or the parent guarantor entered into its guarantee (or, in some jurisdictions, when payments became due on its guarantee), the issuer or the parent guarantor (i) received less than reasonably equivalent value or fair consideration in exchange for the incurrence of the obligation, and (ii) any of the following conditions was then satisfied:

•  it was insolvent or rendered insolvent by reason of incurring its obligations under the exchange note or the original notes or guarantee, respectively;

•  it was engaged in a business or transaction for which its remaining assets constituted unreasonably small capital; or

•  it intended to incur, or believed (or reasonably should have believed) that it would incur, debts beyond its ability to pay as those debts matured.

Without regard to those factors, a court might also avoid the exchange notes or the parent guarantor’s guarantee, if the court concluded that such obligations were incurred with actual intent to hinder, delay, or defraud creditors.

Financeco used a substantial portion of the proceeds of the original notes to repay existing indebtedness of Solectron by lending one of Solectron’s 100% owned intermediate subsidiaries all of the net proceeds of the sale of the original notes. In applying the above factors, a court would likely find that Financeco received less than fair consideration or reasonably equivalent value to the extent that the original notes’ proceeds were used to satisfy these existing obligations. A court would also likely find that a guarantor did not receive fair consideration or reasonably equivalent value for its guarantee, except to the extent that it benefited directly or indirectly from the original notes’ issuance.

If a court were to avoid any guarantee, we cannot assure you that funds would be available to pay the exchange notes from any other source.

The test for determining solvency for purposes of the foregoing test would vary depending on the law of the jurisdiction being applied. Generally, an entity would be considered insolvent if the sum of its debts (including contingent or unliquidated debts) is greater than all of its property at a fair valuation or if the present fair salable value of its assets is less than the amount that will be required to pay its probable liability on its existing debts (including contingent or unliquidated debts) as they become absolute and matured.

There is uncertainty as to your ability to enforce certain foreign civil liabilities in the Cayman Islands.

Financeco is incorporated as an exempted company with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands. A material portion of our assts are located outside of the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for persons receiving exchange notes to enforce judgments against Financeco or judgments obtained in U.S. courts predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States of any state of the United States.

Financeco has been advised by its Cayman Islands counsel, Charles Adams Ritchie & Duckworth, that although there is not statutory enforcement in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the United States, the courts of the Cayman Islands will — based on the principle that a judgment by a competent foreign court imposes upon the judgment debtor an obligation to pay the sum for which judgment has been given — recognize and enforce a foreign judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction if such judgment is final, for a liquidated sum, not in respect of taxes or a fine or penalty, is not inconsistent with a Cayman Islands judgment in respect of the same matters, and was not obtained in a manner, and is not of a kind, the enforcement of which is contrary to the public policy of the Cayman Islands. There is doubt, however, as to whether the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands will (i) recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States or any state of the United States, or (ii) in original actions brought in the Cayman Islands, impose liabilities predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States or any state of the United States, on the grounds that such provisions are penal in nature.

The Grand Court of the Cayman Islands may stay proceeding if concurrent proceedings are being brought elsewhere.

23

USE OF PROCEEDS

The exchange offer is intended to satisfy our obligations under the registration rights agreement that we entered into in connection with the private offering of the original notes. We will not receive any proceeds from the issuance of the exchange notes. The original notes that are surrendered in exchange for the exchange notes will be retired and cancelled and cannot be reissued. As a result, the issuance of the exchange notes will not result in any increase or decrease in our indebtedness.

THE EXCHANGE OFFER

Purpose and Effect of the Exchange Offer

On February 21, 2006, we sold the original notes in a private placement. The original notes were sold to the initial purchasers who in turn resold the notes to a limited number of “Qualified Institutional Buyers,” as defined under the Securities Act, and to non-U.S. persons in transactions outside the United States in reliance on Regulation S of the Securities Act. In connection with the sale of the original notes, we and the initial purchasers entered into a registration rights agreement. Under the registration rights agreement, we have agreed to file a registration statement regarding the exchange of the original notes for the exchange notes which are registered under the Securities Act. We have also agreed to use our reasonable efforts to cause the registration statement to become effective with the SEC and to conduct this exchange offer.

We are making the exchange offer to comply with our obligations under the registration rights agreement. A copy of the registration rights agreement has been filed as an exhibit to our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on February 21, 2006.

In order to participate in the exchange offer, you must represent to us, among other things, that:

•  you are acquiring the exchange notes in the exchange offer in the ordinary course of your business;

•  you are not engaged in, and do not intend to engage in, a distribution of the exchange notes;

•  you do not have any arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the exchange notes;

•  you are not a broker-dealer tendering original notes acquired directly from us for your own account; and

•  you are not one of our “affiliates,” as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act.

Resale of the Exchange Notes

Based on a previous interpretation by the Staff of the SEC as set forth in no-action letters issued to third parties, including Exxon Capital Holdings Corporation (available May 13, 1988) and Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated (available June 5, 1991), we believe that the exchange notes issued in the exchange offer may be offered for resale, resold and otherwise transferred by you without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act, provided that the representations set forth in “— Purpose and Effect of the Exchange Offer” apply to you.

If:

•  you are one of our “affiliates,” as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act;

•  you are a broker-dealer who acquired original notes in the initial private placement and not as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities; or

•  you acquire exchange notes in the exchange offer for the purpose of distributing or participating in the distribution of the exchange notes,

you cannot participate in the exchange offer or rely on the position of the staff of the SEC contained in the no-action letters mentioned above and must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the

24

Securities Act in connection with any resale transaction, unless an exemption from registration is otherwise available.

Each broker-dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account pursuant to the exchange offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes. The letter of transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Act. This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of exchange notes received in exchange for original notes where such original notes were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. The company has agreed that, starting on the expiration date and ending on the close of business 90 days after the expiration date, it will make this prospectus available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. Any holder that is a broker-dealer participating in the exchange offer must notify the exchange agent at the telephone number set forth in the enclosed letter of transmittal and must comply with the procedures for broker-dealers participating in the exchange offer. We have not entered into any arrangement or understanding with any person to distribute the exchange notes to be received in the exchange offer. The exchange offer is not being made to, nor will we accept surrenders for exchange from, holders of original notes in any jurisdiction in which the exchange offer or the acceptance thereof would not be in compliance with the securities or blue sky laws of the particular jurisdiction.

Terms of the Exchange Offer

This prospectus and the accompanying letter of transmittal together constitute the exchange offer. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this prospectus and in the letter of transmittal, we will accept original notes for exchange which are properly tendered on or before the expiration date and are not withdrawn as permitted below. The expiration date for this exchange offer is 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on          , 2006, or such later date and time to which we, in our sole discretion, extend the exchange offer, subject to applicable law.

As of the date of this prospectus, $150.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the original notes are outstanding. This prospectus, together with the letter of transmittal, is being sent to all registered holders of the original notes on this date. There will be no fixed record date for determining registered holders of the original notes entitled to participate in the exchange offer. However, holders of the original notes must cause their original notes to be tendered by book-entry transfer or tender their certificates for the original notes before the expiration date of the exchange offer in order to participate in the exchange offer.

The form and terms of the exchange notes being issued in the exchange offer are the same as the form and terms of the original notes except that:

•  the exchange notes being issued in the exchange offer will have been registered under the Securities Act;

•  the exchange notes being issued in the exchange offer will not bear the restrictive legends restricting their transfer under the Securities Act; and

•  the exchange notes being issued in the exchange offer will not afford holders the registration rights and liquidated damages provisions in favor of holders of the original notes.

The exchange notes will evidence the same debt as the original notes and will be issued under the same indenture, so the exchange notes and the original notes will be treated as a single class of debt securities under the indenture. The original notes and the exchange notes will, however, have separate CUISP numbers.

Outstanding notes being tendered in the exchange offer must be in integral multiples of $1,000. We will issue $1,000 principal amount of exchange notes in exchange for each $1,000 principal amount of outstanding notes surrendered pursuant to the exchange offer.

The exchange offer is not conditioned upon any minimum aggregate principal amount of the original notes being tendered for exchange.

We intend to conduct the exchange offer in accordance with the provisions of the registration rights agreement and applicable federal securities laws. Original notes that are not tendered for exchange under the exchange offer

25

will remain outstanding and will be entitled to the rights under the related indenture. Any original notes not tendered for exchange will not retain any rights under the registration rights agreement and will remain subject to transfer restrictions. See “— Consequences of Failure to Exchange Outstanding Securities.” You do not have any approval or dissenters’ rights under the indenture in connection with the exchange offer.

We will be deemed to have accepted validly tendered original notes when, as and if we will have given oral or written notice of our acceptance of the validly tendered original notes to the exchange agent. The exchange agent will act as agent for the tendering holders for the purposes of receiving the exchange notes from us. If any tendered original notes are not accepted for exchange because of an invalid tender or the occurrence of other events set forth in this prospectus or otherwise, certificates for any unaccepted original notes will be returned, or, in the case of original notes tendered by book-entry transfer, those unaccepted original notes will be credited to an account maintained with The Depository Trust Company, without expense to the tendering holder of those original notes as promptly as practicable after the expiration date of the exchange offer. See “— Procedures for Tendering.”

Those who tender original notes in the exchange offer will not be required to pay brokerage commission or fees or, subject to the instruction in the letter of transmittal, transfer taxes with respect to the exchange under the exchange offer. We will pay all charges and expenses, other than applicable taxes described below, in connection with the exchange offer. See “— Fees and Expenses.”

Expiration Date; Extensions, Amendments

The expiration date is 5:00 p.m., New York City time on          , 2006, or such later date and time to which we, in our sole discretion, extend the exchange offer, subject to applicable law.

In case of an extension of the expiration date of the exchange offer, we will issue a press release or other public announcement no later than 9:00 a.m. Eastern time, on the next business day after the previously scheduled expiration date. Such notification may state that we are extending this exchange offer for a specified period of time.

Conditions to the Completion of the Exchange Offer

We may not accept original notes for exchange and may terminate or not complete the exchange offer if:

•  any action, proceeding or litigation seeking to enjoin, make illegal or delay completion of the exchange offer or otherwise relating in any manner to the exchange offer is instituted or threatened;

•  any order, stay, judgment or decree is issued by any court, government, governmental authority or other regulatory or administrative authority and is in effect, or any statute, rule, regulation, governmental order or injunction shall have been proposed, enacted, enforced or deemed applicable to the exchange offer, any of which would or might restrain, prohibit or delay completion of the exchange offer;

•  any of the following occurs and the adverse effect of such occurrence shall, in our reasonable judgment, be continuing:

•  any general suspension of trading in, or limitation on prices for, securities on any national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter market in the United States;

•  any extraordinary or material adverse change in U.S. financial markets generally, including, without limitation, a decline of at least 10% in either the Dow Jones Industrial Average, the NASDAQ Index or the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index from the date of commencement of the exchange offer;

•  a declaration of a banking moratorium or any suspension of payments in respect of banks in the United States;

•  any limitation, whether or not mandatory, by any governmental entity on, or any other event that would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect, the extension of credit by banks or other lending institutions;

26

•  a commencement of a war or other national or international calamity directly or indirectly involving the United States, which would reasonably be expected to affect materially or adversely, or to delay materially, the completion of the exchange offer; or

•  if any of the situations described above existed at the time of commencement of the exchange offer and that situation deteriorates materially after commencement of the exchange offer.

•  any tender or exchange offer, other than this exchange offer by us, with respect to some or all of our outstanding common stock or any merger, acquisition or other business combination proposal involving us shall have been proposed, announced or made by any person or entity;

•  any event or events occur that have resulted or may result, in our reasonable judgment, in a material adverse change in our business or financial condition; or

•  as the term “group” is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act:

•  any person, entity or group acquires more than 5% of our outstanding shares of common stock, other than a person, entity or group which had publicly disclosed such ownership with the SEC prior to the date of commencement of the exchange offer;

•  any such person, entity or group which had publicly disclosed such ownership prior to such date shall acquire additional common stock constituting more than 2% of our outstanding shares;

•  any new group shall have formed that beneficially owns more than 5% of our outstanding shares of common stock that in our reasonable judgment in any such case, and regardless of the circumstances, makes it inadvisable to proceed with the exchange offer or with such acceptance for exchange of existing notes;

•  any stop order is threatened or in effect with respect to the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part or the qualification of the indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939;

•  any governmental approval or approval by holders of the original notes has not been obtained if we, in our reasonable judgment, deem this approval necessary for the consummation of the exchange offer; or

•  there occurs a change in the current interpretation by the Staff of the SEC which currently permits the exchange notes to be issued in the exchange offer to be offered for resale, resold and otherwise transferred by the holders of the exchange notes, other than broker-dealers and any holder which is an “affiliate” of ours within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act, without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act, provided that the exchange notes acquired in the exchange offer are acquired in the ordinary course of that holder’s business and that holder has no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the exchange notes to be issued in the exchange offer.

If any of the above events occur, we may:

•  terminate the exchange offer and promptly return all tendered original notes to tendering holders;

•  complete and/or extend the exchange offer and, subject to your withdrawal rights, retain all tendered original notes until the extended exchange offer expires;

•  amend the terms of the exchange offer; or

•  waive any unsatisfied condition (other than those dependent upon receipt of necessary governmental approvals) and, subject to any requirement to extend the period of time during which the exchange offer is open, complete the exchange offer.

We may assert these conditions with respect to the exchange offer regardless of the circumstances giving rise to them. All conditions to the exchange offer, other than those dependent upon receipt of necessary government approvals, must be satisfied or waived by us before the expiration of the exchange offer. We may waive any condition (other than those dependent upon receipt of necessary governmental approvals) in whole or in part at any time prior to the expiration of the exchange offer in our discretion. Our failure to exercise our rights under any of the

27

above circumstances does not represent a waiver of these rights. Each right is an ongoing right that may be asserted at any time prior to the expiration of the exchange offer. Any determination by us concerning the conditions described above will be final and binding upon all parties.

If a waiver constitutes a material change to the exchange offer, we will promptly disclose the waiver by means of a prospectus supplement that we will file with the SEC and, if required, distribute to the registered holders of the original notes, and we will extend the exchange offer for a period of five to ten business days, as required by applicable law, depending upon the significance of the waiver and the manner of disclosure to the registered holders, if the exchange offer would otherwise expire during the five to ten business day period.

Procedures for Tendering

To effectively tender original notes by book-entry transfer to the account maintained by the exchange agent at DTC, holders of original notes must request a DTC participant to, on their behalf, in lieu of physically completing and signing the letter of transmittal and delivering it to the exchange agent, electronically transmit their acceptance through DTC’s Automated Tender Offer Program, or ATOP. DTC will then edit and verify the acceptance and send an agent’s message to the exchange agent for its acceptance. An “agent’s message” is a message transmitted by DTC to, and received by, the exchange agent and forming a part of the book-entry confirmation, as defined below, which states that DTC has received an express acknowledgment from the DTC participant tendering original notes on behalf of the holder of such original notes that such DTC participant has received and agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of the exchange offer as set forth in this prospectus and the related letter of transmittal and that we may enforce such agreement against such participant or timely confirmation of a book-entry transfer of the original notes into the exchange agent’s account at DTC (a “book-entry confirmation”) pursuant to the book-entry transfer procedures described below, as well as an agent’s message pursuant to DTC’s ATOP system must be delivered to the exchange agent on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date of the exchange offer.

To effectively tender any original notes held in physical form, a holder of the original notes must complete, sign and date the letter of transmittal, or a facsimile thereof, have the signatures thereon guaranteed if required by the letter of transmittal, and mail or otherwise deliver such letter of transmittal or a facsimile thereof, together with the certificates representing such original notes and any other required documents, to the exchange agent prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date.

Holders of original notes whose certificates for original notes are not lost but are not immediately available or who cannot deliver their certificates and all other documents required by the letter of transmittal to the exchange agent on or prior to the expiration date, or who cannot complete the procedures for book-entry transfer on or prior to the expiration date, may tender their original notes according to the guaranteed delivery procedures set forth in “— Guaranteed Delivery Procedures” below.

The method of delivery of the letter of transmittal, any required signature guarantees, the original notes and all other required documents, including delivery of original notes through DTC, and transmission of an agent’s message through DTC’s ATOP system, is at the election and risk of the tendering holders, and the delivery will be deemed made only when actually received or confirmed by the exchange agent. If original notes are sent by mail, it is suggested that the mailing be registered mail, properly insured, with return receipt requested, made sufficiently in advance of the expiration date, as desired, to permit delivery to the exchange agent prior to 5:00 p.m. on the expiration date. Holders tendering original notes through DTC’s ATOP system must allow sufficient time for completion of the ATOP procedures during the normal business hours of DTC on such respective date.

No original notes, agent’s messages, letters of transmittal or other required documents should be sent to us. Delivery of all original notes, agent’s messages, letters of transmittal and other documents must be made to the exchange agent. Holders may also request their respective brokers, dealers, commercial banks, trust companies or nominees to effect such tender for such holders.

The tender by a holder of original notes, including pursuant to the delivery of an agent’s message through DTC’s ATOP system, will constitute an agreement between such holder and us in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the letter of transmittal.

28

Holders of original notes registered in the name of a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee who wish to tender must contact such registered holder promptly and instruct such registered holder how to act on such non-registered holder’s behalf.

Signatures on a letter of transmittal or a notice of withdrawal must be guaranteed by a member firm of a registered national securities exchange or of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., a commercial bank or trust company having an office or correspondent in the United States or an “eligible guarantor institution” within the meaning of Rule 17Ad-15 under the Exchange Act (each an “eligible institution”) unless the original notes tendered pursuant to the letter of transmittal or a notice of withdrawal are tendered:

•  by a registered holder of original notes who has not completed the box entitled “Special Issuance Instructions” or “Special Delivery Instructions” on the letter of transmittal, or

•  for the account of an eligible institution.

If a letter of transmittal is signed by trustees, executors, administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, officers of corporations or others acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, such person should so indicate when signing, and, unless waived by us, evidence satisfactory to us of their authority to so act must be submitted with such letter of transmittal.

If the letter of transmittal is signed by a person other than the registered holder, the original notes must be endorsed or accompanied by a properly completed bond power, signed by the registered holder as the registered holders’ name appears on the original notes.

All questions as to the validity, form, eligibility, time of receipt and withdrawal of the tendered original notes will be determined by us in our sole discretion, which determination will be final and binding. We reserve the absolute right to reject any and all original notes not validly tendered or any original notes which, if accepted, would, in the opinion of our counsel, be unlawful. We also reserve the absolute right to waive any irregularities or conditions of tender as to particular original notes. Our interpretation of the terms and conditions of this exchange offer, including the instructions in the letter of transmittal, will be final and binding on all parties. Unless waived, any defects or irregularities in connection with tenders of original notes must be cured within such time as we shall determine. Although we intend to notify you of defects or irregularities with respect to tenders of original notes, none of us, the exchange agent, or any other person shall be under any duty to give notification of defects or irregularities with respect to tenders of original notes, nor shall any of them incur any liability for failure to give such notification. Tenders of original notes will not be deemed to have been made until such irregularities have been cured or waived. Any original notes received by the exchange agent that are not validly tendered and as to which the defects or irregularities have not been cured or waived will be returned without cost to such holder by the exchange agent, unless otherwise provided in the letter of transmittal, as soon as practicable following the expiration date of the exchange offer.

Although we have no present plan to acquire any original notes that are not tendered in the exchange offer or to file a registration statement to permit resales of any original notes that are not tendered in the exchange offer, we reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to purchase or make offers for any original notes after the expiration date of the exchange offer, from time to time, through open market or privately negotiated transactions, one or more additional exchange or tender offers, or otherwise, as permitted by law, the indenture and our other debt agreements. Following consummation of this exchange offer, the terms of any such purchases or offers could differ materially from the terms of this exchange offer.

By tendering, each holder will represent to us that, among other things:

•  it is not an affiliate of ours;

•  the person acquiring the exchange notes in the exchange offer is obtaining them in the ordinary course of its business, whether or not such person is the holder, and

•  neither the holder nor such person is engaged in or intends to engage in or has any arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the exchange notes issued in the exchange offer.

29

If any holder or any such other person is an “affiliate,” as defined under Rule 405 of the Securities Act, of us, or is engaged in or intends to engage in or has an arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in a distribution of exchange notes to be acquired in the exchange offer, that holder or any such other person:

•  may not participate in the exchange offer;

•  may not rely on the applicable interpretations of the staff of the SEC; and

•  must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale transaction.

Each broker-dealer who acquired its original notes as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, and thereafter receives exchange notes issued for its own account in the exchange offer, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes issued in the exchange offer. The letter of transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. See “Plan of Distribution” for a discussion of the exchange and resale obligations of broker-dealers in connection with the exchange offer.

Acceptance of Original Notes for Exchange; Delivery of Exchange Notes Issued in the Exchange Offer

Upon satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions to the exchange offer, we will accept, promptly after the expiration date, all original notes properly tendered and will issue exchange notes registered under the Securities Act. For purposes of the exchange offer, we will be deemed to have accepted properly tendered original notes for exchange when, as and if we have given oral or written notice to the exchange agent, with written confirmation of any oral notice to be given promptly thereafter. See “— Conditions to the Exchange Offer” for a discussion of the conditions that must be satisfied before we accept any original notes for exchange.

For each original note accepted for exchange, the holder will receive an exchange note registered under the Securities Act having a principal amount equal to that of the surrendered original note. As a result, registered holders of exchange notes issued in the exchange offer on the relevant record date for the first interest payment date following the completion of the exchange offer will receive interest accruing from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid on the original notes, from February 21, 2006. Original notes that we accept for exchange will cease to accrue interest from and after the date of completion of the exchange offer. Under the registration rights agreement, we may be required to make additional payments in the form of additional interest to the holders of the original notes under circumstances relating to the timing of the exchange offer.

In all cases, we will issue exchange notes in the exchange offer for original notes that are accepted for exchange only after the exchange agent timely receives:

•  certificates for such original notes or a book-entry confirmation of such original notes into the exchange agent’s account at DTC or certificates for such original notes;

•  an agent’s message or a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal; and/or

•  any other required documents.

If for any reason set forth in the terms and conditions of the exchange offer we do not accept any tendered original notes, or if a holder submits original notes for a greater principal amount than the holder desires to exchange or a holder withdraws original notes, we will return such unaccepted, non-exchanged or withdrawn original note without cost to the tendering holder. In the case of original notes tendered by book-entry transfer into the exchange agent’s account at DTC, such non-exchanged original notes will be credited to an account maintained with DTC. We will return the original notes or have them credited to the DTC account as promptly as practicable after the expiration or termination of the exchange offer.

Book-Entry Transfer

The exchange agent will establish an account with respect to the original notes at DTC for purposes of this exchange offer. Any financial institution that is a participant in DTC’s ATOP systems may use DTC’s ATOP

30

procedures to tender original notes. Such participant may make a book-entry delivery of original notes by causing DTC to transfer such original notes into the exchange agent’s account at DTC in accordance with DTC’s procedures for transfer. However, although delivery of original notes may be effected through a book-entry transfer at DTC, the letter of transmittal, or facsimile thereof, with any required signature guarantees, or an agent’s message pursuant to the ATOP procedures and any other required documents must, in any case, be transmitted to and received by the exchange agent at the address set forth in this prospectus on or prior to the expiration date of the exchange offer, or the guaranteed delivery procedures described below must be complied with. Delivery of documents to DTC will not constitute valid delivery to the exchange agent.

Guaranteed Delivery Procedures

If your certificates for original notes are not lost but are not immediately available or you cannot deliver your certificates and any other required documents to the exchange agent on or prior to the expiration date, or you cannot complete the procedures for book-entry transfer on or prior to the expiration date, you may nevertheless effect a tender of your original notes if:

•  the tender is made through an eligible institution;

•  prior to the expiration date of the exchange offer, the exchange agent receives by facsimile transmission, mail or hand delivery from such eligible institution a validly completed and duly executed notice of guaranteed delivery, substantially in the form provided with this prospectus, or an agent’s message with respect to guaranteed delivery which:

•  sets forth your name and address and the amount of your original notes tendered;

•  states that the tender is being made thereby; and

•  guarantees that within three NYSE trading days after the date of execution of the notice of guaranteed delivery, the certificates for all physically tendered original notes, in proper form for transfer, or a book-entry confirmation, as the case may be, and any other documents required by the letter of transmittal will be deposited by the eligible institution with the exchange agent; and

•  the certificates for all physically tendered original notes, in proper form for transfer, or a book-entry confirmation, as the case may be, and all other documents required by the letter of transmittal are received by the exchange agent within three NYSE trading days after the date of execution of the notice of guaranteed delivery.

Withdrawal of Tenders

Tenders of original notes may be properly withdrawn at any time prior 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date of the exchange offer.

For a withdrawal of a tender to be effective, a written notice of withdrawal delivered by hand, overnight by courier or by mail, or a manually signed facsimile transmission, or a properly transmitted “Request Message” through DTC’s ATOP system, must be received by the exchange agent prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date of the exchange offer. Any such notice of withdrawal must:

•  specify the name of the person that tendered the original notes to be properly withdrawn;

•  identify the original notes to be properly withdrawn, including the principal amount of such original notes;

•  in the case of original notes tendered by book-entry transfer, specify the number of the account at DTC from which the original notes were tendered and specify the name and number of the account at DTC to be credited with the properly withdrawn original notes and otherwise comply with the procedures of such facility;

•  contain a statement that such holder is withdrawing its election to have such original notes exchanged for exchange notes;

31

•  other than a notice transmitted through DTC’s ATOP system, be signed by the holder in the same manner as the original signature on the letter of transmittal by which such original notes were tendered, including any required signature guarantees, or be accompanied by documents of transfer to have the trustee with respect to the original notes register the transfer of such original notes in the name of the person withdrawing the tender; and

•  specify the name in which such original notes are registered, if different from the person who tendered such original notes.

All questions as to the validity, form, eligibility and time of receipt of such notice will be determined by us, and our determination shall be final and binding on all parties. Any original notes so properly withdrawn will be deemed not to have been validly tendered for exchange for purposes of this exchange offer. No exchange notes will be issued with respect to any withdrawn original notes unless the original notes so withdrawn are later tendered in a valid fashion. Any original notes that have been tendered for exchange but are not exchanged for any reason will be returned to the tendering holder thereof without cost to such holder, or, in the case of original notes tendered by book-entry transfer into the exchange agent’s account at DTC pursuant to the book-entry transfer procedures described above, such original notes will be credited to an account maintained with DTC for the original notes as soon as practicable after withdrawal, rejection of tender or termination of the exchange offer. Properly withdrawn original notes may be retendered by following the procedures described above at any time on or prior to the expiration date of the exchange offer.

Exchange Agent

U.S. Bank National Association has been appointed as exchange agent for this exchange offer. Letters of transmittal, agent’s message or request messages through DTC’s ATOP system, notices of guaranteed delivery and all correspondence in connection with this exchange offer should be sent or delivered by each holder of original notes or a beneficial owner’s broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee to the exchange agent at the following address: U.S. Bank National Association, 633 West Fifth Street, 24th Floor, Los Angeles, California, 90071, Attention: Specialized Finance — Paula Oswald, telephone: (213) 615-6043, facsimile: (213) 615-6197. We will pay the exchange agent reasonable and customary fees for its services and will reimburse it for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith. Delivery or facsimile to a party other than the exchange agent will not constitute valid delivery.

Fees and Expenses

The expenses of soliciting tenders pursuant to this exchange offer will be paid by us.

Except as described above, we will not make any payments to brokers, dealers or other persons soliciting acceptances of this exchange offer. We will, however, pay the reasonable and customary fees and out-of-pocket expenses of the exchange agent, the trustee, and legal, accounting, and related fees and expenses. We may also pay brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in forwarding copies of this prospectus and related documents to the beneficial owners of the original notes, and in handling or forwarding tenders for exchange.

We will also pay all transfer taxes, if any, applicable to the exchange of original notes pursuant to this exchange offer. If, however, original notes are to be issued for principal amounts not tendered or accepted for exchange in the name of any person other than the registered holder of the original notes tendered or if tendered original notes are registered in the name of any person other than the person signing the letter of transmittal, or if a transfer tax is imposed for any reason other than the exchange of original notes pursuant to this exchange offer, then the amount of any such transfer taxes, whether imposed on the registered holder or any other persons, will be payable by the tendering holder. If satisfactory evidence of payment of such taxes or exemption therefrom is not submitted with the consent and letter of transmittal, the amount of such transfer taxes will be billed directly to such tendering holder.

The estimated cash expenses to be incurred in connection with the exchange offer are estimated in the aggregate to be approximately $125,000. These expenses include registration fees, fees and expenses of the exchange agent, accounting and legal fees, and printing costs, among other expenses.

32

Consequences of Failure to Exchange Outstanding Securities

Holders who desire to tender their original notes in exchange for exchange notes registered under the Securities Act should allow sufficient time to ensure timely delivery. Neither the exchange agent nor us is under any duty to give notification of defects or irregularities with respect to the tenders of original notes for exchange.

Original notes that are not tendered or are tendered but not accepted will, following the completion of the exchange offer, continue to be subject to the provisions in the indenture regarding the transfer and exchange of the original notes and the existing restrictions on transfer set forth in the legend on the original notes set forth in the indenture for the notes. Except in limited circumstances with respect to specific types of holders of original notes, we will have no further obligation to provide for the registration under the Securities Act of such original notes. In general, original notes, unless registered under the Securities Act, may not be offered or sold except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.

We do not currently anticipate that we will take any action to register the original notes under the Securities Act or under any state securities laws other than pursuant to this registration statement. Upon completion of the exchange offer, holders of the original notes will not be entitled to any further registration rights under the registration rights agreement, except under limited circumstances.

Holders of the exchange notes issued in the exchange offer and any original notes which remain outstanding after completion of the exchange offer will vote together as a single class for purposes of determining whether holders of the requisite percentage of the class have taken certain actions or exercised certain rights under the indenture.

DESCRIPTION OF THE EXCHANGE NOTES

The exchange notes, together with the related guarantee by Solectron Corporation, will be issued under an indenture by and among Financeco, as issuer, Solectron Corporation, as guarantor, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The terms of the exchange notes and related guarantees include those stated in the indenture and those made part of the indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended.

The form and terms of the exchange notes are the same as the form and terms of the original notes, except that the exchange notes will be registered under the Securities Act. As a result, the exchange notes will not bear legends restricting their transfer and will not have the benefit of the registration rights and liquidated damage provisions in favor of holders of the original notes. The exchange notes represent the same debt as the original notes for which they are being exchanged. Both the original notes and the exchange notes, collectively referred to as the notes, are governed by the same indenture.

You can find the definitions of certain terms used in this description under the subheading “— Certain Definitions.” Other defined terms used in this description but not defined below under “— Certain Definitions” have the meanings assigned to them in the indenture. In this description, the terms we, us, our and “Financeco” refer only to Solectron Global Finance LTD and its successors in accordance with the terms of the indenture and not to Solectron Corporation or any of its other subsidiaries and the word “Solectron” refers only to Solectron Corporation and any successor guarantor and not to any of its subsidiaries.

The following description is a summary of material provisions of the indenture and the exchange notes. It does not restate the indenture in its entirety. We urge you to read the indenture because it, and not this description, defines your rights as a holder of the exchange notes. Copies of the indenture are available as set forth below under “— Additional Information.”

The registered Holder of a note will be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. Only registered Holders will have rights under the indenture.

33

Brief Description of the Exchange Notes

The Exchange Notes

The exchange notes:

•  are general, unsecured obligations of Financeco;

•  are subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future general unsubordinated obligations of Financeco;

•  are pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future senior subordinated indebtedness of Financeco, including the original notes; and

•  are senior in right of payment to any indebtedness of Financeco that is subordinated to the rights of Holders of the exchange notes.

Your rights under the exchange notes are also effectively subordinated to all borrowings, if any, under the Credit Agreements, which will be secured as described under “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Exchange Notes — Payment of principal and interest on the exchange notes by Financeco will be unsecured and subordinated to future senior indebtedness. Further, the guarantee of the exchange notes is unsecured and subordinated in right of payment to all of our existing and future senior debt and effectively subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of our subsidiaries.” See “— Subordination” below.

Financeco is an indirect, 100%-owned finance subsidiary of Solectron Corporation that has no independent assets or operations, revenue or cash flow and was formed for the sole purpose of issuing debt securities. Financeco currently has no outstanding indebtedness other than the original notes.

The Guarantee

Solectron will fully, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee the due and punctual payment of the principal of, and interest on, the exchange notes and any of our other obligations under the indenture with respect to the exchange notes when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity or otherwise. Solectron’s guarantee is an unsecured senior subordinated obligations of Solectron and will rank equally in right of payment with all other senior subordinated obligations of Solectron. The guarantee will be subordinated in right of payment to other obligations of Solectron to the same extent and in a similar manner as the exchange notes are subordinated to the other obligations of Financeco. See “— Subordination” below. The guarantee provides that in the event of a default in payment of principal of, or interest on, the exchange notes, the holder of such exchange notes may institute legal proceedings directly against Solectron to enforce the guarantee without first proceeding against us.

As of the expiration date of the exchange offer, all of Solectron’s Subsidiaries will be “Restricted Subsidiaries” and will be subject to most of the restrictions of the covenants in the indenture. However, under the circumstances described below under the subheading “— Certain Covenants in Effect other than during a Covenant Suspension Period — Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries,” Solectron will be permitted to designate certain of its Subsidiaries as “Unrestricted Subsidiaries.” Solectron’s Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to most of the restrictive covenants in the indenture.

Subordination

The exchange notes and the guarantee will be our and Solectron’s general, unsecured, obligations, respectively, contractually subordinated in right of payment to all of our Senior Debt and the Senior Debt of Solectron, including, without limitation, Solectron’s obligations under its 0.50% convertible senior notes due 2034 and the Credit Agreements, whether outstanding on the issuance date or thereafter incurred. This effectively means that holders of Senior Debt must be paid in full in cash before any amounts are paid to the holders of the exchange notes in the event we become bankrupt or are liquidated and that holders of Senior Debt can block payments to the holder of the exchange notes in the event of a default by us on such Senior Debt, all as more fully described below.

As of February 28, 2006, Solectron had outstanding an aggregate of approximately $643 million of Senior Debt; no indebtedness, other than the original notes, that ranks equal in right of payment with the notes; and

34

approximately $64 million of indebtedness subordinated in right of payment to the exchange notes. As of February 28, 2006, the aggregate amount of liabilities of Solectron’s subsidiaries, including trade payables but excluding intercompany liabilities, was approximately $2.3 billion.

Solectron’s cash flow and its ability to service its debt, including its guarantee of the exchange notes, is dependent upon the earnings of its subsidiaries. In addition, Solectron is dependent on the distribution of earnings, loans or other payments by its subsidiaries to it. Solectron’s subsidiaries are separate and distinct legal entities. Its subsidiaries will not guarantee the exchange notes or have any obligation to pay any amounts due on the exchange notes or the guarantees or to provide Solectron with funds for its payment obligations, whether by dividends, distribution, loans or other payments. In addition, any payment of dividends, distributions, loans or advances by its subsidiaries to Solectron could be subject to statutory or contractual restrictions. Payments to Solectron by its subsidiaries will also be contingent upon its subsidiaries’ earnings and business considerations. Solectron’s right to receive any assets of any subsidiary upon its liquidation or reorganization, and, therefore, Solectron’s rights, and the rights of Solectron’s creditors, including the rights of the Holders of the exchange notes, to participate in those assets, will be structurally subordinated to the claims of that subsidiary’s creditors, including trade creditors. In addition, even if Solectron were a creditor of any of its subsidiaries, its right as a creditor would be subordinate to any security interest in the assets of its subsidiaries and any indebtedness of its subsidiaries senior to that held by Solectron.

Neither we nor Solectron may make payment (by set-off or otherwise) on account of any obligation in respect of the exchange notes, including, without limitation, the principal of, premium, if any, or interest (or Liquidated Damages) on the exchange notes, or on account of the redemption provisions of the exchange notes (including any repurchases of notes), for cash or property (other than junior securities):

(1) upon the maturity of any Senior Debt in respect of which Financeco or Solectron is an obligor or guarantor, whether by lapse of time, acceleration (unless waived) or otherwise, unless and until all principal of, premium, if any, and the interest and other amounts on such Senior Debt are first paid in full in cash and, in the case of Senior Debt under a Credit Agreement, all letters of credit issued under a Credit Agreement shall either have been terminated or cash collateralized in accordance with the terms thereof, or

(2) in the event of default in the payment of any amount owing in respect of Senior Debt, including, but not limited to, any principal of, premium, if any, or interest or other amounts on Senior Debt in respect of which Financeco or Solectron is an obligor or guarantor, when such Senior Debt becomes due and payable, whether at maturity or at a date fixed for prepayment or by declaration or otherwise (a “Senior Debt Payment Default”), unless and until such Senior Debt Payment Default has been cured or waived or otherwise has ceased to exist or such Senior Debt has been paid in full in cash.

Upon (1) the happening of an event of default other than a Senior Debt Payment Default that permits the holders of Senior Debt to declare such Senior Debt to be due and payable and (2) written notice of such event of default delivered to us and the trustee by the representative under a Credit Agreement or the holders of an aggregate of at least $5 million principal amount outstanding of any other Senior Debt or their representative (a “Payment Blockage Notice”), then, unless and until such event of default has been cured or waived or otherwise has ceased to exist, no payment (by set-off or otherwise) may be made by or on behalf of us or Solectron, in each case, which is an obligor or guarantor under such Senior Debt, on account of any obligation in respect of the exchange notes, including, without limitation, the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the exchange notes, (including any repurchases of any of the exchange notes), or on account of the redemption provisions of the exchange notes, in any such case, other than payments made with junior securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless the Senior Debt in respect of which such event of default exists has been declared due and payable in its entirety within 179 days after the Payment Blockage Notice is delivered as set forth above (the “Payment Blockage Period”) (and such declaration has not been rescinded or waived), at the end of the Payment Blockage Period, we shall and Solectron shall be required to pay all sums not previously paid to the holders of the exchange notes during the Payment Blockage Period due to the foregoing prohibitions and to resume all other payments as and when due on the exchange notes and the guarantees.

35

Any number of Payment Blockage Notices may be given; provided, however, that:

(1) not more than one Payment Blockage Notice shall be given within a period of any 360 consecutive days, and

(2) no non-Senior Debt Payment Default that existed upon the date of such Payment Blockage Notice or the commencement of such Payment Blockage Period shall be made the basis for the commencement of any other Payment Blockage Period unless such default shall have been cured or waived for a period of not less than 90 days (for purposes of this provision, any subsequent action, or any subsequent breach of any financial covenant for a period commencing after the expiration of such Payment Blockage Period that, in either case, would give rise to a new event of default, even though it is an event that would also have been a separate breach pursuant to any provision under which a prior event of default previously existed, shall constitute a new event of default for this purpose).

Upon any distribution of our or Solectron’s assets upon any dissolution, winding up, total or partial liquidation or reorganization of us or Solectron, whether voluntary or involuntary, in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or a similar proceeding or upon assignment for the benefit of creditors or any marshaling of assets or liabilities:

(1) the holders of all of our or Solectron’s Senior Debt, as applicable, will first be entitled to receive payment in full in cash and all letters of credit issued under a Credit Agreement will either have been terminated or cash collateralized in accordance with the terms thereof before the holders of the notes are entitled to receive any payment (other than in the form of junior securities) on account of any Obligation in respect of the exchange notes, including the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the exchange notes; and

(2) any payment or distribution of our or Solectron’s assets of any kind or character from any source, whether in cash, property or securities (other than junior securities) to which the holders of the notes or the trustee on behalf of the holders of the exchange notes would be entitled (by set-off or otherwise), except for the subordination provisions contained in the indenture, will be paid by the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making such a payment or distribution directly to the holders of such Senior Debt or their representative to the extent necessary to make payment in full in cash on all such Senior Debt remaining unpaid, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the holders of such Senior Debt.

In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or distribution of our or Solectron’s assets (other than junior securities) shall be received by the trustee or the holders of the exchange notes at a time when such payment or distribution is prohibited by the foregoing provisions, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of the holders of such Senior Debt, and shall be immediately paid or delivered by the trustee or such Holders, as the case may be, to the holders of such Senior Debt remaining unpaid or to their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing any of such Senior Debt may have been issued, ratably according to the aggregate principal amounts remaining unpaid on account of such Senior Debt held or represented by each, for application to the payment of all such Senior Debt remaining unpaid, to the extent necessary to pay all such Senior Debt in full in cash after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the holders of such Senior Debt.

The indenture provides that, the right of any holder to receive payment of the principal of, premium and interest on the exchange notes, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the exchange notes or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such holder. The subordination provisions of the indenture and the exchange notes do not prevent the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default under the indenture.

As a result of these subordination provisions, in the event of the liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding or an assignment for the benefit of our creditors or a marshaling of our assets and liabilities, holders of the exchange notes may receive ratably less than other creditors.

We are obligated to pay reasonable compensation to the trustee and to indemnify the trustee against certain losses, liabilities or expenses incurred by the trustee in connection with its duties relating to the exchange notes. The

36

trustee’s claims for these payments will generally by senior to those of the holders of the exchange notes in respect of all funds collected or held by the trustee.

Principal, Maturity and Interest

Subject to compliance with the requirements of the terms of the indenture, we may issue an unlimited principal amount of additional notes from time to time after this offering. Any offering of additional notes is subject to the covenant described below under the caption “— Certain Covenants in Effect other than during a Covenant Suspension Period — Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock.” The notes and any additional notes subsequently issued under the indenture will be treated as a single class for all purposes under the indenture, including, without limitation, waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase. Any such additional notes would be “fungible” under the original issue discount provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Solectron will issue any such notes only in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. The notes will mature on March 15, 2016.

Interest on the exchange notes will accrue at the rate of 8.00% per annum and will be payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15th and September 15th, commencing on September 15, 2006. We will make each interest payment to the Holders of record on the immediately preceding March 1st and September 1st.

Interest on the notes will accrue from the date of original issuance of the original notes or, if interest has already been paid, from the date it was most recently paid on the original notes. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

Methods of Receiving Payments on the Exchange Notes

If a Holder has given wire transfer instructions to us, we will pay all principal, interest and premium, if any, on that Holder’s notes in accordance with those instructions. All other payments on notes will be made at the office or agency of the paying agent and registrar within the City and State of New York, unless we elect to make interest payments by check mailed to the Holders at their address set forth in the register of Holders.

Paying Agent and Registrar for the Notes

The trustee will initially act as paying agent and registrar. We may change the paying agent or registrar without prior notice to the Holders of the notes, and we or Solectron or any of its Subsidiaries may act as paying agent or registrar.

Transfer and Exchange

A Holder may exchange or transfer exchange notes in accordance with the indenture. The registrar and the trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents in connection with a transfer of notes. Holders will be required to pay all taxes due on transfer. We are not required to transfer or exchange any note selected for redemption. Also, we are not required to transfer or exchange any note for a period of 15 days before a selection of notes to be redeemed.

Payment of Additional Amounts

All payments of, or in respect of, principal of and any premium and interest on the notes or the guarantee shall be made free and clear of, and without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed, withheld, or assessed by or on behalf of any jurisdiction, other than the United States, or any taxing authority thereof or therein (each a “Relevant Jurisdiction”), unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. In the event that any such withholding or deduction is required, Financeco or Solectron, as the case may be, shall pay such additional amounts of, or in respect of, principal of and any premium and interest on the notes or the guarantee (“Additional Amounts”) as will result in the receipt by the holders of the amounts that would have been received by them had no such withholding or

37

deduction been required, except that no Additional Amounts shall be payable for or on account of any tax, duty, assessment, or other governmental charge which would not have been imposed but for the fact that such holder:

(a) had some connection with the Relevant Jurisdiction other than the mere ownership of, receipt of payment under, or enforcement of such note or guarantee; or

(b) presented such note or guarantee for payment more than 30 days after the date on which the payment in respect of such note or guarantee became due and payable or provided for, whichever is later;

Whenever there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on, or in respect of, any note or guarantee, such mention shall be deemed to include the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to the indenture.

Optional Redemption

At any time prior to March 15, 2009, we or Solectron may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of notes issued under the indenture at a redemption price of 108% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, to, but not including, the redemption date, with cash in an amount not in excess of the Net Cash Proceeds of one or more Qualified Equity Offerings; provided that:

(1) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of notes issued under the indenture remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption (excluding notes held by us or Solectron and its Subsidiaries); and

(2) the redemption occurs within 90 days of the date of the closing of such Qualified Equity Offering.

On or after March 15, 2011, we or Solectron may redeem all or a part of the notes upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the notes redeemed, to, but not including, the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on March 15th of the years indicated below:

Year	Percentage
2011		104.000	%
2012		102.667	%
2013		101.333	%
2014 and thereafter		100.000	%

In addition, at any time prior to March 15, 2011, we or Solectron may, at our option, redeem the notes, in whole or in part, from time to time, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the notes so redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, and (ii) the Make-Whole Premium, plus, to the extent not included in the Make-Whole Premium, accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the date of redemption.

Neither we nor Solectron are required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the notes.

Optional Tax Redemption

The notes may be redeemed at the option of Financeco or Solectron, in whole but not in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice to the holders, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date fixed for redemption if, as a result of:

(a) any change in or amendment to the laws or treaties (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of a Relevant Jurisdiction affecting taxation; or

(b) any change in the existing official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings (including a holding, judgment, or order by a court of competent jurisdiction),

38

which change, amendment, application or interpretation is proposed or announced on or after the date of original issuance of the notes, with respect to any payment due or to become due under the notes or the indenture, Financeco or Solectron, as the case may be, is or would be required on the next succeeding interest payment date to pay Additional Amounts on the notes or the guarantee and the payment of such Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by the use of any reasonable measures available to Financeco or Solectron, including making payments directly by Solectron under the guarantee.

No such notice of redemption shall be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which Financeco or Solectron would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts were a payment in respect of the notes or guarantee then due. Prior to the publication of any notice of redemption in accordance with the foregoing, Financeco shall deliver to the trustee (i) an opinion of tax counsel of recognized standing and expertise in the tax law of the applicable Relevant Jurisdiction, reasonably acceptable to the trustee, to the effect that the circumstances referred to in the prior paragraph exist and (ii) a certificate signed by two officers of Financeco stating that the payment of Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by the use of any reasonable measures available to Financeco or Solectron, including making payments directly by Solectron under the guarantee. The notice, once delivered by Financeco to the trustee, will be irrevocable.

Repurchase at the Option of Holders

Change of Control

If a Change of Control occurs, each Holder of notes will have the right to require Financeco to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000) of that Holder’s notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer on the terms set forth in the indenture. In the Change of Control Offer, we will offer a Change of Control Payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the notes repurchased, to, but not including, the date of purchase. Within twenty business days following our becoming aware of a Change of Control, we will mail a notice to each Holder describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase notes on the Change of Control Payment Date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, pursuant to the procedures required by the indenture and described in such notice. We will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the notes as a result of a Change of Control. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control provisions of the indenture, we will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control provisions of the indenture by virtue of such conflict.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, we will, to the extent lawful:

(1) accept for payment all notes or portions of notes (equal to $1,000 principal amount or an integral multiple thereof) properly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(2) deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all such notes or portions of notes properly tendered; and

(3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the trustee the notes properly accepted together with an officers’ certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of notes or portions of notes being purchased by us.

The paying agent will promptly mail to each Holder of accepted notes the Change of Control Payment for such notes, and the trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the notes surrendered, if any; provided that each note will be in a principal amount of $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000.

We will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on, or as soon as practicable after, the Change of Control Payment Date.

39

Except as described above with respect to a Change of Control, the indenture does not contain provisions that permit the Holders of the notes to require that we repurchase or redeem the notes in the event of a takeover, recapitalization or similar transaction.

We will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by us and purchases all notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer.

The definition of Change of Control includes a phrase relating to the direct or indirect sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of “all or substantially all” of the properties or assets of Solectron and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole. Although there is a limited body of case law interpreting the phrase “substantially all,” there is no precise established definition of the phrase under applicable law. Accordingly, the ability of a Holder of notes to require us to repurchase its notes as a result of a sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of less than all of the assets of Solectron and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole to another person may be uncertain.

Asset Sales

Solectron will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale, unless:

(1) Solectron (or a Restricted Subsidiary) receives consideration from the Asset Sale, which, at the time of the Asset Sale, is at least equal to the fair market value of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of;

(2) if such Asset Sale, or any series of related Asset Sales, is for assets with a fair market value in excess of $50 million, the fair market value is determined by Solectron’s or Financeco’s Board of Directors and evidenced by a resolution of the Board of Directors set forth in an officers’ certificate delivered to the trustee; and

(3) at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by Solectron or such Restricted Subsidiary consists of cash, Cash Equivalents or Replacement Assets. For purposes of this provision, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:

(a) any liabilities (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the notes), as shown on Solectron’s most recent Consolidated balance sheet, of Solectron or any Restricted Subsidiary that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to an agreement that expressly releases or indemnifies Solectron or such Restricted Subsidiary from further liability;

(b) securities, assets or property that within 90 days of such Asset Sale is converted, sold or exchanged by Solectron or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash, Cash Equivalents or Replacement Assets; provided that any such cash and Cash Equivalents shall be treated as Net Cash Proceeds attributable to the original Asset Sale for which such property was received; and

(c) Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary that is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such Asset Sale, if Solectron and all of its Restricted Subsidiaries immediately are released from all Guaranties, if applicable, of payments or other Obligations with respect to such Indebtedness and such Indebtedness is no longer the liability of the Solectron or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

Within 360 days after the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds from an Asset Sale, Solectron or such Restricted Subsidiary may apply those Net Cash Proceeds:

(1) to permanently repay Indebtedness and other Obligations under the Credit Agreements, any Senior Debt of Solectron or any Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary of Solectron (other than Financeco) or any Senior Debt of Financeco and if the Indebtedness repaid is revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto;

(2) to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of another Permitted Business; or

40

(3) to acquire other assets that are immediately used or useful in a Permitted Business, to make capital expenditures or to make Permitted Investments (other than pursuant to clauses (1) or (2) thereof).

Pending the final application of any Net Cash Proceeds, Solectron may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise invest the Net Cash Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by the indenture.

Any Net Cash Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in the second preceding paragraph will constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $25.0 million, we will make an Asset Sale Offer to all holders of notes and, at our option, to all holders of other Indebtedness that ranks pari passu in right of payment with the notes or the related guarantee containing provisions requiring Financeco, Solectron or its Restricted Subsidiaries to offer to purchase or to redeem such Indebtedness with the proceeds of sales of assets, to purchase the maximum principal amount of notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the date of purchase, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, Solectron, Financeco or their Restricted Subsidiaries, as applicable, may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of notes and other pari passu Indebtedness tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the trustee will select the notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis or such other basis allowed by the indenture and such other Indebtedness. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero.

We will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Asset Sale provisions of the indenture, we will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Asset Sale provisions of the indenture by virtue of such conflict.

The agreements governing Solectron’s other Indebtedness contain limitations on Solectron’s and Financeco’s ability to engage in certain transactions, including events that would constitute a Change of Control or an Asset Sale. In addition, the exercise by the Holders of notes of their right to require us to repurchase the notes upon a Change of Control or an Asset Sale could cause a default under these other agreements, even if the Change of Control or Asset Sale itself does not, due to the financial effect of such repurchases on Solectron. Finally, our ability to pay cash to the Holders of notes upon a Change of Control may be limited by our or Solectron’s then-existing financial resources.

Selection and Notice

If fewer than all of the notes are to be redeemed or repurchased pursuant to the foregoing provisions at any time, the trustee will select notes for redemption or repurchase as follows:

(1) if the notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which the notes are listed; or

(2) if the notes are not listed on any national securities exchange, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such method as the trustee deems fair and appropriate.

No notes of $1,000 principal amount or less can be redeemed or repurchased pursuant to the foregoing provisions in part. Such notices of redemption or repurchase will be mailed by first class mail at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of notes to be redeemed at its registered address, except that such redemption or repurchase notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the notes or a satisfaction and discharge of the indenture. Notices of redemption may not be conditional.

If any note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to that note will state the portion of the principal amount of that note that is to be redeemed. A new note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original note will be issued in the name of the Holder of notes upon cancellation of the original note.

41

Notes called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption. On and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on notes or portions of them called for redemption.

Covenant Suspension

If on any date following the date of the indenture:

(1) the notes are rated Baa3 or above by Moody’s and BBB– or above by S&P (or, if either such entity ceases to rate the notes for reasons outside of the control of Financeco, the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any other “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” within the meaning of Rule 15c3-1(c)(2)(vi)(F) under the Exchange Act selected by Financeco as a replacement agency) (an “Investment Grade Rating”); and

(2) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (other than a Default or Event of Default which would not be continuing if the Covenant Suspension Period were in effect).

(the occurrence and continuation of the foregoing events being collectively referred to as the “Covenant Suspension Period”), then, upon the request of Financeco to the Trustee, beginning on the day of such request and continuing only so long as the factors set forth in (1) and (2) above are satisfied, the covenants described under “— Certain Covenants in Effect other than during a Covenant Suspension Period” and the provisions of the indenture described above under “— Repurchase at the Option of Holders” will no longer be applicable to the notes. Accordingly, the following covenants (the “Suspended Covenants”) will be suspended during a Covenant Suspension Period: “— Change of Control,” “— Asset Sales,” “— Restricted Payments,” “— Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock,” “— Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries,” “— Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries,” “— Transactions with Affiliates” and “— Limitations on Issuances of Guarantees of Indebtedness.”

If during any Covenant Suspension Period, either Moody’s or S&P withdraws its ratings or downgrades the ratings assigned to the notes below the Investment Grade Ratings so that the notes do not have an Investment Grade Rating from both Moody’s and S&P, or a Default (other than with respect to the Suspended Covenants) occurs and is continuing, Solectron and its Restricted Subsidiaries will thereafter again be subject to the Suspended Covenants, subject to the terms, conditions and obligations set forth in the Indenture (each such date of reinstatement being the “Reinstatement Date”). Compliance with the Suspended Covenants with respect to Restricted Payments made after the Reinstatement Date will be calculated in accordance with the terms of the covenant described under “— Restricted Payments” as though such covenants had been in effect during the entire period of time from which the notes are issued.

Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, so long as the notes are outstanding, including during a Covenant Suspension Period, we, Solectron and its other Restricted Subsidiaries will be subject to the following covenants: “— Liens,” “— Sale and Leaseback Transactions” (other than clauses (1) and (3) thereof), “— Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets” (other than clause (4) thereof) “— Enforcement of Support Agreement” and “— Payments for Consents.” As a result, during the Covenant Suspension Period, the notes will be entitled to substantially less covenant protection for so long as the factors set forth in (1) and (2) above are satisfied.

Certain Covenants in Effect other than during a Covenant Suspension Period

Set forth below are summaries of certain covenants contained in the indenture that will apply to the notes only outside of a Covenant Suspension Period.

Restricted Payments

Neither Financeco nor Solectron will, and Solectron will not permit any of its other Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly and without duplication:

(1) declare or pay any dividend or make any other payment or distribution on account of Solectron’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests or to the direct or indirect holders of Solectron’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests in their capacity as such (other than dividends or distributions payable

42

(a) in Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of Solectron or (b) to Solectron or a Restricted Subsidiary of Solectron);

(2) purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Equity Interests of Solectron;

(3) make any payment on or with respect to, or purchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Indebtedness that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to the notes or Solectron’s guarantee of the notes, except a payment of interest or principal at the Stated Maturity thereof; or

(4) make any Restricted Investment (all such payments and other actions set forth in these clauses (1) through (4) above being collectively referred to as “Restricted Payments”),

unless, at the time of, and after giving effect to, such Restricted Payment:

(1) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur as a consequence of such Restricted Payment;

(2) Solectron would, at the time of such Restricted Payment and after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Restricted Payment had been made at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, have been permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of the covenant described below under the caption “— Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock;” and

(3) such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by Solectron and its Restricted Subsidiaries after the date of the indenture, taken as one accounting period, (excluding Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (1), (2) and (3) of the third paragraph of this covenant), is less than the sum, without duplication, of:

(a) 50% of the Consolidated Net Income of Solectron for the period from the beginning of the first fiscal quarter commencing after the date of the indenture to the end of Solectron’s most recently ended fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available at the time of such Restricted Payment (or, if such Consolidated Net Income for such period is a deficit, less 100% of such deficit), plus

(b) 100% of the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds received by Solectron (i) since the date of the indenture as a contribution to its equity capital (other than from the sale or issuance of Disqualified Stock), (ii) from the issue or sale of Equity Interests of Solectron (other than Disqualified Stock) since the date of the indenture, or (iii) from the issue or sale prior to, on or since the date of the indenture of debt securities (other than debt securities subordinated in right of payment to the notes) that have been converted into or exchanged for such Equity Interests (in the case of each of (i) through (iii) above, other than Equity Interests (or Disqualified Stock or debt securities) sold to a Subsidiary of Solectron); provided that for purposes of (iii) above Net Cash Proceeds shall include, with respect to debt securities (other than debt securities subordinated in right of payment to the notes) issued or sold prior to the date of the indenture that have been converted into Equity Interests (excluding Disqualified Stock) or exchanged for Equity Interests (excluding Disqualified Stock) on or after the date of the indenture, the principal amount, plus accrued but unpaid interest deemed converted, or accreted value, as applicable, of such Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness subordinated in right of payment to the notes) that has been converted or exchanged, plus

(c) to the extent that any Restricted Investment that was made after the date of the indenture is returned to Solectron or a Restricted Subsidiary (the non-cash portion of which is to be valued, for purposes of this covenant, only if it is an asset the purchase of which would not have been a Restricted Investment, in which case its value will be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the receiving entity) or otherwise liquidated or repaid, the lesser of (i) the return of capital with respect to such Restricted Investment (less the cost of disposition, if any), and (ii) the aggregate amount of such Restricted Investment, plus

(d) to the extent that any Unrestricted Subsidiary of Solectron is redesignated as a Restricted Subsidiary after the date of the indenture, the lesser of (i) the fair market value of Solectron’s Investment

43

in such Subsidiary as of the date of such redesignation or (ii) such fair market value as of the date on which such Subsidiary was originally designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary plus the aggregate amount of any Restricted Investments made following the date of such original designation (measured as of the time each such Restricted Investment was made), less

(e) to the extent that any Restricted Payment was made in reliance on clause (9) below, the aggregate amount of such Restricted Payments.

The preceding provisions will not prohibit the payment of any dividend within 60 days after the date of declaration of the dividend, if at the date of declaration the dividend payment would have complied with the provisions of the indenture.

So long as no Default has occurred and is continuing or would be caused thereby, the preceding provisions will not prohibit:

(1) the redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition of any Indebtedness of Solectron or Financeco which is subordinated in right of payment to the notes, the guarantee of the notes by Solectron or its successors, or of any Equity Interests of Solectron in exchange for or upon conversion of, or out of the Net Cash Proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale (other than to a Restricted Subsidiary of Solectron) of, Equity Interests of Solectron (other than Disqualified Stock); provided that the amount of any such Net Cash Proceeds that are utilized for any such redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition will be excluded from the second clause (3) of the first paragraph of this covenant;

(2) the defeasance, redemption, repurchase or other acquisition of subordinated Indebtedness of Solectron or Financeco in exchange for or with the net proceeds in cash equal to that from a substantially concurrent incurrence of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that the amount of any such net cash proceeds that are utilized for any such redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition will be excluded from the second clause (3) of the first paragraph of this covenant;

(3) the payment of any dividend by a Restricted Subsidiary of Solectron to the holders of its Equity Interests on a pro rata basis and on a non-pro rata basis with respect to distributions to holders of GIS’s exchangeable stock by virtue of a declaration of a dividend or distribution of Solectron stock;

(4) the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of any Equity Interests of Solectron or any Restricted Subsidiary of Solectron held by any officer, director, consultant or employee of Solectron (or of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’) pursuant to any management equity subscription agreement, stock option agreement or similar agreement; provided that the aggregate price paid for all such repurchased, redeemed, acquired or retired Equity Interests may not exceed $10.0 million in any twelve-month period;

(5) loans to employees, officers and directors of Solectron and its Restricted Subsidiaries not to exceed $10 million in the aggregate at any one time outstanding;

(6) the repurchase of Equity Interests of Solectron that may be deemed to occur upon the cash-less exercise thereof;

(7) the making of any payment on or with respect to, or repurchase, redemption, defeasance or acquisition or retirement for value, of any Indebtedness subordinated in right of payment to the notes or the guarantee of the notes by Solectron or its successors which is convertible or exchangeable into Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of Solectron in connection with (i) an optional redemption of such convertible subordinated Indebtedness pursuant to the terms thereof; provided that, the current market price per share of Solectron’s common stock (calculated based upon the average closing price as reported on the New York Stock Exchange (or other national securities exchange on which such common stock is listed) for the 30-trading day period immediately preceding the date any notice of redemption is sent or published) into which such Indebtedness is convertible or exchangeable equals or exceeds 150% of the conversion or exchange price in effect for such Indebtedness on the date of such notice; and (ii) the payment by Solectron of cash in lieu of any fractional shares deliverable upon conversion or exchange of any Indebtedness in compliance with the terms of the instruments governing such Indebtedness; provided that any amounts paid pursuant to this

44

clause (7) will be deducted in determining the amount of Restricted Payments permitted under the second clause (3) in the first paragraph of this covenant;

(8) other Restricted Payments in an aggregate amount not to exceed $50.0 million;

(9) the making of any Restricted Payment so long as Solectron would, at the time of such Restricted Payment and after giving pro forma effect thereto, have a Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio of not more than 1.5 to 1.0;

(10) in connection with an acquisition by Solectron or by any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, receive or accept the return to Solectron or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Equity Interests of Solectron or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries constituting a portion of the purchase price consideration in settlement of indemnification claims; and

(11) engage in transactions relating to tax planning strategies of Solectron and it’s Restricted Subsidiaries; provided that all such transactions are between or among Restricted Subsidiaries, Solectron and any trustee, transfer agent or escrow agent relating to such tax planning strategies, or any combination of the foregoing parties.

The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) will be the fair market value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by Solectron or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment. The fair market value of any assets or securities that are required to be valued by this covenant will be determined by an officer of Solectron or us and set forth in an officers’ certificate delivered to the Trustee. If such fair market value exceeds $50 million, such determination shall be based upon a resolution of the Board of Directors of Solectron or us, as the case may be, which resolution with respect thereto will also be delivered to the trustee. Not later than the date of making any Restricted Payment, we will deliver to the trustee such officers’ certificate, which shall also state that such Restricted Payment is permitted and setting forth the basis upon which the calculations required by this “Restricted Payments” covenant were computed, together with a copy of any fairness opinion or appraisal required by the indenture.

Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock

Neither Financeco nor Solectron will, and Solectron will not permit any of its other Restricted Subsidiaries to create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and neither Financeco nor Solectron will issue any Disqualified Stock and Solectron will not permit any of its other Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any shares of preferred stock; provided, however, that Financeco and Solectron may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue Disqualified Stock, and Solectron’s other Restricted Subsidiaries may incur Indebtedness or issue preferred stock, if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for Solectron’s most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock or preferred stock is issued would have been at least 2.0 to 1.0, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred or the preferred stock or Disqualified Stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period.

The first paragraph of this covenant will not prohibit the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively, “Permitted Debt”):

(1) the incurrence by Solectron and its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness and letters of credit under any Credit Agreements (plus any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to extend, retire, renew, defease, refinance, replace or refund such Indebtedness) in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding under this clause (1) not to exceed the greater of (a) $500.0 million; and (b) the sum of (i) 85% of the value of Solectron’s and its Restricted Subsidiaries’ accounts receivable (before giving effect to any related reserves) shown on the Solectron’s most recent Consolidated balance sheet prepared in accordance with GAAP that are not more than 90 days past due, plus (ii) 60% of the inventory shown on Solectron’s most recent Consolidated balance sheet in accordance with GAAP; in each case minus the amount of any such Indebtedness (a) retired with the Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale applied to permanently reduce the

45

outstanding amounts or the commitments with respect to such Indebtedness as required pursuant to “— Repurchase at the Option of Holders — Asset Sales” or (b) assumed by a transferee in an Asset Sale; provided that, solely for purposes of calculating the amount of Indebtedness which may be incurred pursuant to clause (1)(b), any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to clause (12) of this paragraph will be deemed to have been incurred under this clause (1)(b);

(2) the incurrence by Solectron and its Restricted Subsidiaries of the Existing Indebtedness;

(3) the incurrence by Financeco of Indebtedness represented by the notes and by Solectron of the guarantee, in each case to be issued on the date of the indenture and the incurrence by Financeco of Indebtedness represented by the exchange notes and by Solectron of the related guarantee, in each case to be issued upon consummation of the exchange offer made pursuant to the related registration rights agreement;

(4) the incurrence by Solectron or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used to extend, refund, renew, refinance, defease or replace Indebtedness (other than intercompany Indebtedness) that was permitted by the indenture to be incurred under the first paragraph of this covenant or clauses (2), (3) or clause (4) of this paragraph;

(5) the incurrence or issuance by Solectron or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock between or among Solectron and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that:

(a) if either Financeco or Solectron is the obligor on such Indebtedness, such Indebtedness must be contractually subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment of all Obligations with respect to the notes and the guarantee, respectively; and

(b) (i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests or other transaction that results in any such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock being held by a Person other than Solectron or a Restricted Subsidiary of Solectron and (ii) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock to a Person that is not either Solectron or a Restricted Subsidiary of Solectron, will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock by Solectron or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (5);

(6) the incurrence by Solectron or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Hedging Obligations that are incurred for the purpose of fixing or hedging interest rate risk with respect to any floating and/or fixed rate Indebtedness that is permitted by the terms of the indenture to be outstanding or for the purpose of fixing or hedging currency exchange risk or commodity price risk and not with the purpose of speculation;

(7) the guarantee by Solectron of Indebtedness of Solectron or a Restricted Subsidiary of Solectron or the guarantee (given reasonably contemporaneously with the incurrence of Indebtedness being guaranteed) by a Restricted Subsidiary of Solectron of Indebtedness of any other Restricted Subsidiary of Solectron, in each case that was permitted to be incurred by another provision of this covenant and by the covenant “— Limitations on Issuances of Guarantees of Indebtedness;”

(8) the accrual of interest, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the accumulation of dividends on Disqualified Stock or preferred stock of Restricted Subsidiaries (to the extent not paid) and the payment of dividends on Disqualified Stock or preferred stock of Restricted Subsidiaries in the form of additional shares of the same class of Disqualified Stock or preferred stock of Restricted Subsidiaries will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of Disqualified Stock for purposes of this covenant; provided, in each such case, that the amount thereof is included in Fixed Charges of Solectron as accrued;

(9) the incurrence by Solectron or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or preferred stock of Restricted Subsidiaries in an aggregate principal amount (or accreted value or liquidation preference, as applicable) at any time outstanding incurred pursuant to this clause (9), not to exceed $150.0 million;

46

(10) Indebtedness incurred solely in respect of bankers acceptances, letters of credit and performance bonds (to the extent that such incurrence does not result in the incurrence of any obligation to repay any obligation relating to borrowed money or other Indebtedness), all in the ordinary course of business in amounts and for the purposes customary in Solectron’s industry;

(11) the incurrence of Indebtedness not to exceed $200.0 million at any one time outstanding as a part of a Cash Repatriation Transaction for tax planning or cash repatriation purposes;

(12) the incurrence by Solectron or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness represented by Capital Lease Obligations, mortgage or equipment financings or other Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock, in each case, incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or cost of engineering, installation, acquisition, lease, construction or improvement of property, plant or equipment used in the business of Solectron or such Restricted Subsidiary, in an aggregate principal amount, liquidation amount, or accreted value, as applicable, not to exceed 10% of Total Assets at any time outstanding; provided that solely for purposes of calculating the amount of Indebtedness which may be incurred pursuant to this clause (12), any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to clause (1)(b) of this paragraph will be deemed to have been incurred under this clause (12);

(13) the incurrence by Solectron and its Restricted Subsidiaries of Acquired Debt (other than Acquired Debt Incurred as consideration in, or to provide all or any portion of the funds or credit support utilized to consummate, the transaction or series of transactions pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary became a Subsidiary of Solectron or its Restricted Subsidiary or was otherwise acquired by Solectron or its Restricted Subsidiary), provided, that such incurrence does not result, on a pro forma basis for the transaction with which the Acquired Debt is incurred, in Solectron’s Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio decreasing immediately after such incurrence from Solectron’s Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio in effect immediately prior to such incurrence; and

(14) the incurrence of Indebtedness to provide credit support put in place in connection with the Receivables Financing Program in an aggregate amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $250.0 million.

Neither Financeco nor Solectron will incur any Indebtedness (including Permitted Debt) that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of Solectron or Financeco unless such Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated in right of payment to the notes and the guarantees on substantially identical terms; provided, however, that no Indebtedness of Solectron or Financeco will be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of Solectron or Financeco solely by virtue of being unsecured.

For purposes of determining compliance with this “Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock” covenant, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or preferred stock of a Restricted Subsidiary, or portion thereof meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (14) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this covenant, Financeco and Solectron will be permitted to classify such item of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or preferred stock of a Restricted Subsidiary, or portion thereof on the date of its incurrence, or later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or preferred stock of a Restricted Subsidiary, or portion thereof, in any manner that complies with this covenant, except that Indebtedness under the Credit Agreements (as described in clause (i) of the definition thereof) outstanding on the date on which notes are first issued and authenticated under the indenture will be deemed to have been incurred on such date in reliance on the exception provided by clause (1) of the definition of Permitted Debt.

For purposes of determining any particular amount of Indebtedness under this covenant, Guarantees, Liens or obligations with respect to letters of credit supporting Indebtedness otherwise included in the determination of such particular amount shall not be included to the extent that including such amount shall cause duplication.

For purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in any currency other than U.S. dollars shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect as of the date such Indebtedness is incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit debt; provided that the amount of any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness denominated in

47

the same currency as the Indebtedness being refinanced thereby, shall be calculated based on the relevant exchange rate in effect as of the date of the incurrence of the Indebtedness being so refinanced.

Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries

Neither Financeco nor Solectron will, and Solectron will not permit any of its other Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction (other than those incurred during a Covenant Suspension Period) on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to:

(1) pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock to Solectron or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or pay any indebtedness owed to Solectron or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(2) make loans or advances to Solectron or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or

(3) transfer any of its properties or assets to Solectron or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

However, the preceding restrictions will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of:

(1) any such encumbrance or restriction existing on the date of the indenture or under any agreements and instruments governing Existing Indebtedness, Existing Synthetic Lease Financings, the Credit Agreements and other agreements as in effect on the date of the indenture and any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements, provided that the amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacement or refinancings and Credit Agreements are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions directly or indirectly affecting payments from Restricted Subsidiaries to Solectron or to other Restricted Subsidiaries of Solectron than those contained in those agreements on the date of the indenture;

(2) the indenture and the notes and related guarantees;

(3) applicable law;

(4) any agreement or instrument of a Person acquired by Solectron or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as in effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such agreement or instrument was entered into in connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to Solectron or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or the properties or assets of Solectron or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, other than, in each case, the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired, provided that, in the case of any agreement or instrument with respect to Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of the indenture to be incurred;

(5) customary non-assignment provisions in leases, licenses and other agreements or instruments restricting assignment or restricting transfers of non-cash assets entered into in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practices;

(6) purchase money obligations for property acquired in the ordinary course of business and provisions contained in operating leases that impose restrictions on the property acquired or leased of the nature described in clause (3) of the preceding paragraph;

(7) any agreement for the sale or other disposition of a Restricted Subsidiary that contains any of the encumbrances or restrictions described in the preceding paragraph as they relate to that Restricted Subsidiary pending its sale or other disposition;

(8) any agreement or instrument governing Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness, provided that the restrictions contained in the agreements governing such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are no more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced;

48

(9) Liens securing obligations otherwise permitted to be incurred under the provisions of the covenant described below under the caption “— Liens” that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets subject to such Liens;

(10) provisions with respect to the disposition or distribution of assets or property in joint venture agreements, partnership agreements, assets sale agreements, stock sale agreements and other similar agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business, in each case to the extent that the counterparty to such agreement is not an Affiliate of Solectron;

(11) restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business;

(12) restrictions contained in Qualified Foreign Indebtedness;

(13) with respect to a Restricted Subsidiary, any agreement or investment entered into after the date of the indenture if (i) the encumbrance or restriction applies only if there is a default, (ii) the encumbrance is not materially more disadvantageous to holders of Notes than in comparable financings (as determined by Solectron), and (iii) Solectron determines that the encumbrance or restriction will not materially affect the ability to pay interest on the notes at their Stated Maturity or principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the notes at their final Stated Maturity;

(14) under any customary provisions under any agreements, instruments or contracts relating to any Receivables Program; and

(15) reasonable and customary borrowing base, net worth and similar covenants set forth in agreements evidencing Indebtedness otherwise permitted by the Indenture, provided that such covenants do not explicitly limit Solectron’s or its Restricted Subsidiaries’ ability to make dividends to or investments in Solectron or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, guarantee the obligations of Solectron or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or loan money to Solectron or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries

The Board of Directors of Solectron may designate any Restricted Subsidiary other than Financeco to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors) of all outstanding Investments owned by Solectron and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary properly designated (and any Investments made in such Unrestricted Subsidiary after the date of designation) will be deemed to be Investments made as of the time of the designation (or the date of such Investment, as the case may be) and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under the first paragraph of the covenant described above under the caption “— Restricted Payments” or Permitted Investments, as determined by Solectron or Financeco. That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Board of Directors of Solectron may redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if the redesignation would not cause a Default.

Transactions with Affiliates

Neither Financeco nor Solectron will, and Solectron will not permit any of its other Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless:

(1) the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to Solectron or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that could reasonably be expected to be obtained in a comparable transaction by Solectron or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and

(2) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $50 million, Financeco or Solectron delivers to the trustee either a resolution of the Board of Directors of Solectron set forth in an officers’ certificate certifying that such

49

Affiliate Transaction complies with this covenant and that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of Solectron or such Restricted Subsidiary, or an opinion as to the fairness to Solectron or such Restricted Subsidiary of such Affiliate Transaction from a financial point of view issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing.

The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of the prior paragraph:

(1) any employment agreement entered into by Solectron or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business and consistent with the past practice of Solectron or such Restricted Subsidiary;

(2) Affiliate Transactions between or among Solectron and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(3) Restricted Payments and Permitted Investments that are permitted by the provisions of the indenture described above under the caption “— Restricted Payments;”

(4) the entering into, maintaining or performance of any employment contract, employee loan, collective bargaining agreement, benefit plan, program or arrangement, related trust agreement or any other similar arrangement (in each case entered into in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice) for or with any employee, officer or director, including vacation, health, insurance, deferred compensation, retirement, savings or other similar plans;

(5) the payment of compensation, performance of indemnification or contribution obligations, or an issuance, grant or award of stock, options or other equity related interests to employees, officers or directors in the ordinary course of business;

(6) the payment of reasonable and customary fees and the provision of indemnities to directors in connection with their services; and

(7) if such transaction is with any Person solely in its capacity as a holder of Indebtedness or Equity Interests of Solectron or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, if such person is treated no more favorably by the terms of such transaction than any other holder of Indebtedness or Equity Interest of Solectron; provided such Person owns less than 15% of such Indebtedness or Equity Interests.

Limitations on Issuances of Guarantees of Indebtedness

Neither Financeco nor Solectron will, and Solectron will not permit any of its other Restricted Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to Guarantee the payment of any other Indebtedness of Solectron (other than Senior Debt) or of Financeco (other than Senior Debt), unless Solectron or such Restricted Subsidiary simultaneously executes and delivers a supplemental indenture providing for the Guarantee of the payment of the notes by such Restricted Subsidiary or Solectron, which Guarantee will be senior to or pari passu with Solectron or such Restricted Subsidiary’s Guarantee of or pledge to secure such other Indebtedness.

Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, any such Guarantee of the notes by a Restricted Subsidiary will provide by its terms that it will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged:

(1) in connection with any sale or other disposition of all of the assets of that Guarantor (including by way of merger or consolidation) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) a Restricted Subsidiary of Solectron, if the sale or other disposition complies with the “Asset Sale” provisions of the indenture; or

(2) in connection with any sale of all or substantially all of the Capital Stock of a Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) a Restricted Subsidiary of Solectron, if the sale complies with the “Asset Sale” provisions of the indenture and such Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary of Solectron;

provided, however, that any such release and discharge shall occur only to the extent that all obligations of such Guarantor under all of its guarantees of Solectron’s or its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Indebtedness shall also terminate

50

upon such release, sale or transfer and none of such Guarantor’s Equity Interests are pledged for the benefit of any holder of any such Indebtedness of Solectron or its Restricted Subsidiaries.

See “— Repurchase at the Option of Holders — Asset Sales.”

Certain Covenants Before, During and After a Covenant Suspension Period

Set forth below are summaries of certain covenants contained in the indenture that will apply to the notes before, during and after a Covenant Suspension Period.

Liens

Neither Financeco nor Solectron will, and Solectron will not permit any of its other Restricted Subsidiaries to, create, incur, assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any Lien of any kind (other than Permitted Liens or Liens securing our or Solectron’s Senior Debt) securing Indebtedness upon any of their property or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired, unless:

(a) if such Lien secures Senior Subordinated Debt, the notes and the Guarantee are secured by a Lien in the same properties as those securing such Lien and on an equal and ratable basis with such Senior Subordinated Debt; and

(b) if such Lien secures Subordinated Debt, such Lien shall be of a lessor priority than a Lien securing the notes and the Guarantees in the same properties as those securing such Lien.

Sale and Leaseback Transactions

Neither Financeco nor Solectron will, Solectron and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, enter into any sale and leaseback transaction in excess of $50.0 million in one or a series of related transactions; provided that Solectron or any Restricted Subsidiary may enter into a sale and leaseback transaction if:

(1) Financeco or Solectron or that Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, could have incurred Indebtedness in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt relating to such sale and leaseback transaction under the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test in the first paragraph of the covenant described above under the caption “— Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock” or under clause (12) of the definition of Permitted Debt;

(2) with respect to any sale leaseback transaction in which the assets subject to such sale leaseback have a fair market value (as determined by Solectron in good faith) in excess of $50 million, the gross cash proceeds of that sale and leaseback transaction, when the terms of the lease are taken into account, are at least equal to the fair market value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, of the property that is the subject of that sale and leaseback transaction; and

(3) the transfer of assets in that sale and leaseback transaction is permitted by, and Solectron or Financeco or such other Restricted Subsidiary applies the proceeds of such transaction in compliance with, the covenant described above under the caption “— Repurchase at the Option of Holders — Asset Sales.”

Provided, that clauses (1) and (3) will have no effect during a Covenant Suspension Period.

Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets

Neither Financeco nor Solectron may: (1) consolidate or merge with or into another Person (whether or not Financeco or Solectron is the surviving corporation); or (2) sell, assign, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of Solectron and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole or of Financeco, in one or more related transactions, including by way of a lease, to another Person, unless:

(1) either: (a) Solectron or Financeco, as the case may be, is the surviving corporation; or (b) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than Solectron or Financeco) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made is a corporation organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia;

51

(2) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than Solectron or Financeco) or the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made assumes all the obligations of Solectron, as the case may be, under the notes or the guarantees and the indenture;

(3) immediately after such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and

(4) Solectron or Financeco, as the case may be, or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than Solectron or Financeco, as the case may be), or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made will, on the date of such transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto and any related financing transactions as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of the covenant described above under the caption “— Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock,”

provided that clause (4) will have no effect during a Covenant Suspension Period.

Upon any consolidation or merger or any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of Solectron and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole or of Financeco, as the case may be, in accordance with the foregoing, the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than Solectron or Financeco), or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made shall succeed to and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, Solectron or Financeco, as the case may be, under the indenture with the same effect as if such successor corporation had been named therein as Solectron or Financeco, as the case may be, and Solectron or Financeco, as the case may be, shall be released from the obligations under the notes and the indenture, except with respect to any obligations that arise from, or are related to, such transaction.

This “Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets” covenant will not apply to a merger, consolidation, sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of assets between or among Solectron and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or Financeco and any other Restricted Subsidiary of Solectron, so long as such transaction is not for the purpose of evading this provision and/or is not in connection with any other third-party transaction.

Financeco may not incur indebtedness unless (1) Solectron is a co-obligor or guarantor of such Indebtedness or (2) the net proceeds of such Indebtedness are loaned to Solectron or a Restricted Subsidiary, used to acquire outstanding debt securities issued by Solectron or a Restricted Subsidiary, or used to repay Indebtedness of Solectron or a Restricted Subsidiary as permitted under the covenant described above under the caption “— Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock.” Financeco may not engage in any business not related directly or indirectly to obtaining money or arranging financing for Solectron or its Restricted Subsidiaries.

Payments for Consent

Neither Financeco, nor Solectron will, and Solectron will not permit any of its other Restricted Subsidiaries to pay or cause to be paid any consideration to or for the benefit of any Holder of notes for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of the indenture or the notes, unless such consideration is offered to be paid or is paid to all Holders of the notes who consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement.

Enforcement of Support Agreement

For so long as any note remains outstanding under the indenture, Financeco, for the benefit of the trustee and holders, shall use its best efforts to enforce its rights under the Support Agreement between Financeco and Solectron. The Support Agreement obligates Solectron to contribute such funds to Financeco as are necessary for Financeco to make payments on the notes as they come due.

52

Reports

Whether or not required by the Commission, so long as any notes are outstanding, Solectron will furnish to the Holders of notes, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and regulations:

(1) all quarterly and annual financial information that would be required to be contained in a filing with the Commission on Forms 10-Q and 10-K if Solectron were required to file such Forms, including a “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and any financial footnote disclosure with respect to Financeco which would have been required by Rule 3-10(b) of Regulation S-X, and, with respect to the annual information only, a report on the annual financial statements by Solectron’s certified independent accountants; and

(2) all current reports that would be required to be filed with the Commission on Form 8-K if Solectron were required to file such reports.

In addition, whether or not required by the Commission, Solectron will file a copy of all of the information and reports referred to in clauses (1) and (2) above with the Commission for public availability within 15 days of the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and regulations (unless the Commission will not accept such a filing) and make such information available to securities analysts and prospective investors upon request; provided that any information filed with or furnished to the Commission shall be deemed to have been provided to the Trustee, Holders, security analysts and prospective investors for purposes hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Solectron may cure a breach of this covenant by filing with the Commission or delivering to the holders of notes, at any time prior to the acceleration of notes, any such information it failed to file.

Events of Default and Remedies

Each of the following is an Event of Default:

(1) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on the notes;

(2) our failure to pay all or any part of the principal of, or premium, if any, on the notes when and as the same becomes due and payable at maturity, redemption, by acceleration or otherwise,

(3) failure by Financeco, Solectron or any of its other Restricted Subsidiaries to comply with the covenants described under the captions “— Repurchase at the Option of Holders — Change of Control,” “— Repurchase at the Option of Holders — Asset Sales,” “— Certain Covenants in Effect other than during a Covenant Suspension — Restricted Payments,” “— Certain Covenants in Effect other than during a Covenant Suspension — Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock” and “— Certain Covenants Before, During and After a Covenant Suspension Period — Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets;” and such failure continues for 30 days after notice is given as provided below;

(4) failure by Financeco, Solectron or any of its other Restricted Subsidiaries to comply with any other covenant or agreement in the notes or in the Indenture (other than a failure that is the subject of the foregoing clause (1), (2) or (3)), and such failure continues for 60 days after notice is given as provided below;

(5) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by Financeco, Solectron or any of its other Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by Solectron, Financeco, or any of its other Restricted Subsidiaries) whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now exists, or is created after the date of the indenture, if that default:

(a) is caused by a failure to pay principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness on the date of such default (a “Payment Default”); or

(b) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity;

provided in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which

53

has been so accelerated, aggregates to $50.0 million or more (or, during a Covenant Suspension Period, such amount aggregates to $100.0 million or more);

(6) failure by Solectron or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay final judgments aggregating in excess of $50.0 million (or, during any Covenant Suspension Period, judgments aggregating in excess of $100.0 million) other than amounts which a third party insurer has acknowledged as its exclusive liability, which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 consecutive days; and

(7) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency described in the indenture with respect to Financeco, Solectron or any of its other Restricted Subsidiaries that would individually or collectively constitute a Significant Subsidiary.

In the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, with respect to Financeco, Solectron, any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding notes may declare all the notes to be due and payable immediately.

Holders of the notes may not enforce the indenture or the notes except as provided in the indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding notes may direct the trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The trustee may withhold from Holders of the notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest, except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest.

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the notes then outstanding by notice to the trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest on, or the principal of, the notes.

In the case of any Event of Default occurring on or after March 15, 2011 which is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a judgment which is no longer subject to appeal to have been by reason of any willful action or inaction taken or not taken by or on behalf of Financeco or Solectron with the intention of avoiding payment of the premium that Financeco would have had to pay if Financeco or Solectron then had elected to redeem the notes pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of the indenture, an equivalent premium will then be due and payable to the extent permitted by law upon the acceleration of the notes. If an Event of Default occurs prior to March 15, 2011, which is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a judgment which is no longer subject to appeal to have been by reason of any willful action (or inaction) taken (or not taken) by or on behalf of Financeco or Solectron with the intention of avoiding any prohibition on redemption of the notes prior to March 15, 2011, then the premium specified in the indenture will also become immediately due and payable to the extent permitted by law upon the acceleration of the notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, upon the payment in full of the principal amount plus accrued interest (other than the premium referred to above) the indenture shall be of no further force and effect except with respect to payment of the premium amount if and when such court renders such a decision.

Financeco is required to deliver to the trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the indenture. Upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, Financeco is required to deliver to the trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default.

No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Stockholders

No director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of Financeco or Solectron, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of Financeco or Solectron under the notes, the guarantee or the indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of notes by accepting a note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the notes.

54

Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance

Solectron or Financeco may, at its option and at any time, elect to have all of its obligations discharged with respect to the outstanding notes (“Legal Defeasance”), except for:

(1) the rights of Holders of outstanding notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on such notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to below;

(2) Financeco’s obligations with respect to the notes concerning issuing temporary notes, registration of notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust;

(3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the trustee, and Financeco’s obligations in connection therewith; and

(4) the Legal Defeasance provisions of the indenture.

In addition, Solectron or Financeco may, at its option and at any time, elect to have the obligations of Financeco, Solectron and Solectron’s other Restricted Subsidiaries released with respect to certain covenants that are described in the indenture (“Covenant Defeasance”) and thereafter any omission to comply with those covenants will not constitute a Default or Event of Default with respect to the notes. In the event Covenant Defeasance occurs, certain events (not including non-payment, bankruptcy, receivership, rehabilitation and insolvency events) described under “— Events of Default and Remedies” will no longer constitute an Event of Default with respect to the notes.

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance:

(1) Financeco must irrevocably deposit with the trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders of the notes, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, or interest and premium, if any, on the outstanding notes on the stated maturity or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and Financeco must specify whether the notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date;

(2) in the case of Legal Defeasance, Financeco has delivered to the trustee an opinion of counsel confirming that (a) Financeco has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (b) since the date of the indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion of counsel will confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

(3) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, Financeco has delivered to the trustee an opinion of counsel confirming that the Holders of the outstanding notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

(4) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) and no Event of Default relating to bankruptcy or insolvency may occur at any time from the date of such deposit to the 91st calendar day thereafter;

(5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under any material agreement or instrument (other than as permitted in clause (4) above) to which Financeco, Solectron or any of its other Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or by which Financeco, Solectron or any of its other Restricted Subsidiaries is bound;

55

(6) Financeco or Solectron must deliver to the trustee an officers’ certificate stating that the deposit was not made by Financeco or Solectron with the intent of preferring the Holders of notes over the other creditors of Financeco or Solectron with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors of Solectron or others; and

(7) Financeco or Solectron must deliver to the trustee (a) an officers’ certificate, stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with, and (b) an opinion of counsel confirming the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in clauses (1) (with respect to the validity, and perfection of the security interest), (2), (3) and, to the knowledge of such counsel (5) above.

Amendment, Supplement and Waiver

Except as provided in the next two succeeding paragraphs, the indenture or the notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the notes then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, notes), and any existing default or compliance with any provision of the indenture or the notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding notes (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, notes).

Without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver may not (with respect to any notes held by a non-consenting Holder):

(1) reduce the principal amount of notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

(2) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any note or alter the provisions with respect to the redemption of the notes (other than provisions relating to the covenants described above under the caption “— Repurchase at the Option of Holders”);

(3) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on any note;

(4) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on the notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the notes by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);

(5) make any note payable in money other than that stated in the notes;

(6) make any change in the provisions of the indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders of notes to receive payments of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on the notes;

(7) release Solectron’s guarantee of the notes;

(8) waive a redemption payment with respect to any note (other than a payment required by one of the covenants described above under the caption “— Repurchase at the Option of Holders”); or

(9) make any change in the preceding amendment and waiver provisions.

Notwithstanding the preceding, without the consent of any Holder of notes, Financeco, Solectron and the trustee may amend or supplement the indenture or the notes:

(1) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency;

(2) to provide for uncertificated notes in addition to or in place of certificated notes;

(3) to provide for the assumption of Solectron’s or Financeco’s obligations to Holders of notes and guarantees in the case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of Solectron’s assets;

(4) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the indenture of any such Holder;

56

(5) to comply with requirements of the Commission in order to qualify or maintain the qualification of the indenture under the Trust Indenture Act;

(6) adding guarantors to the notes or adding collateral securing the notes pursuant to the terms of the indenture; or

(7) make any change to the subordination provisions that would limit or terminate benefits available to any holder of Senior Debt; or

(8) to conform the text of the indenture or the notes to any provision of this Description of Notes to the extent that such provision in this Description of Notes is inconsistent with the corresponding provision of the Indenture or the notes.

No amendment to the subordination provisions may be made affecting the rights of any holder of Senior Debt without the consent of such holder of Senior Debt.

Concerning the Trustee

If the trustee becomes a creditor of Financeco or Solectron, the indenture limits its right to obtain payment of claims in certain cases, or to realize on certain property received in respect of any such claim as security or otherwise. The trustee will be permitted to engage in other transactions; however, if it acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the Commission for permission to continue or resign.

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding notes will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the trustee, subject to certain exceptions. The indenture provides that in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the trustee will be required, in the exercise of its power, to use the degree of care of a prudent person in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. Subject to such provisions, the trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the indenture at the request of any Holder of notes, unless such Holder has offered to the trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.

Book-Entry Procedures, Delivery, Form, Transfer and Exchange

Global Notes

The exchange notes will be in the form of one or more registered global notes without interest coupons. Upon issuance, the global notes will be deposited with the Trustee, as custodian for The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), in New York, New York, and registered in the name of DTC or its nominee for credit to the accounts of DTC’s Participants (as defined below).

Transfer of beneficial interests in any global notes will be subject to the applicable rules and procedures of DTC and its Participants, which may change from time to time.

The Global Notes may be transferred, in whole and not in part, only to another nominee of DTC or to a successor of DTC or its nominee in certain limited circumstances. Beneficial interests in the Global Notes may not be exchanged for Certificated Notes except in certain limited circumstances. See “— Exchange of Interests in Global Notes for Certificated Notes.”

Initially, the Trustee will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. Financeco may change the Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to the Holders, and Financeco, Solectron or any of the Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. The notes may be presented for registration of transfer and exchange at the offices of the Registrar.

57

Certain Book-Entry Procedures

The description of the operations and procedures of DTC contained in this prospectus is provided solely as a matter of convenience. These operations and procedures are solely within their control and are subject to change by them from time to time. Neither Financeco nor Solectron take responsibility for these operations and procedures and urge you to contact DTC or its Participants directly to discuss these matters.

DTC has advised Financeco and Solectron as follows: DTC is a limited purpose trust company organized under the laws of the State of New York, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a “clearing agency” registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Exchange Act. DTC holds securities for its participating organizations (collectively, the “Direct Participants”) and facilitates the clearance and settlement of transactions in those securities between Direct Participants through electronic book-entry changes in accounts of Direct Participants. The Direct Participants include securities brokers and dealers (including the initial purchasers), banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations. Access to DTC’s system is also available to other Persons that clear through or maintain a direct or indirect custodial relationship with a Direct Participant (collectively, the “Indirect Participants” and, together with the Direct Participants, the “Participants”). Persons who are not Participants may beneficially own securities held by or on behalf of DTC only through the Participants.

DTC has advised Financeco and Solectron that, pursuant to DTC’s procedures, (i) upon deposit of the Global Notes, DTC will credit the account of each Direct Participant designated by the initial purchasers with the portion of the principal amount at maturity of each global note that has been allocated to such Direct Participant by the initial purchasers, and (ii) DTC will maintain records of the ownership interests of such Direct Participants in each global note and the transfer of ownership interests by and between Direct Participants. DTC will not maintain records of the ownership interests of, or the transfer of ownership interests by and between, Indirect Participants or other owners of beneficial interests in the global notes. Direct Participants and Indirect Participants must maintain their own records of the ownership interests of, and the transfer of ownership interests by and between, Indirect Participants and other owners of beneficial interests in the global notes.

You may hold your interests in global notes directly through DTC if you are a Direct Participant in DTC or indirectly through organizations that are Direct Participants in DTC.

The laws of some states in the United States require that certain persons take physical delivery in definitive, certificated form of securities that they own. This may limit or curtail your ability to transfer your beneficial interest in a global note to such persons. Because DTC can act only on behalf of Direct Participants, which in turn act on behalf of Indirect Participants and others, your ability to pledge your beneficial interest in a global note to Persons that are not Direct Participants in DTC, or to otherwise take action in respect of such interest, may be affected by the lack of a physical certificate evidencing such interest. For certain other restrictions on the transferability of the notes, see “— Exchange of Interests in Global Notes for Certificated Notes.”

As long as DTC, or its nominee, is the registered holder of a Global Note, DTC or such nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner and holder of the notes represented by such Global Note for all purposes under the applicable Indenture and the notes. Except in the limited circumstances described under “— Exchange of Interests in Global Notes for Certificated Notes,” you will not be entitled to have any portion of a global note registered in your name, will not be entitled to receive physical delivery of notes in certificated form and will not be considered the registered owners or holder of a global note (or any note represented thereby) under the applicable Indenture or the notes for any purpose.

Under the terms of the applicable Indenture, Financeco, Solectron and the Trustee will treat the persons in whose names the notes are registered (including notes represented by global notes) as the owners thereof for the purpose of receiving payments and for any and all other purposes whatsoever. Payments in respect of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest (and Liquidated Damages, if any) on Global Notes registered in the name of DTC or its nominee will be payable by the Trustee to DTC or its nominee as the registered holder under the applicable Indenture. Consequently, none of Financeco, Solectron, the Trustee or any agent of Financeco, Solectron or the Trustee has or will have any responsibility or liability for (i) any aspect of DTC’s records or any Participant’s records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in the global notes or for

58

maintaining, supervising or reviewing any of DTC’s records or any Participant’s records relating to the beneficial ownership interests in any global note or (ii) any other matter relating to the actions and practices of DTC or any of its Participants.

DTC has advised Financeco and Solectron that its current payment practice (for payments of principal, premium, interest, and the like) with respect to securities such as the notes is to credit the accounts of the relevant Direct Participants with such payment on the payment date in amounts proportionate to such Direct Participant’s respective ownership interest in the global notes as shown on DTC’s records. Payments by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to the beneficial owners of the notes will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices between them and will not be the responsibility of DTC, the Trustee, Financeco, or Solectron. None of Financeco, Solectron or the Trustee will be liable for any delay by DTC or its Direct Participants or Indirect Participants in identifying the beneficial owners of the notes, and Financeco, Solectron and the Trustee may conclusively rely on and will be protected in relying on instructions from DTC or its nominee as the registered owner of the notes for all purposes.

Interests in the global notes will trade in DTC’s Same-Day Funds Settlement System and, therefore, transfers between Direct Participants in DTC will be effected in accordance with DTC’s procedures, and will be settled in immediately available funds. Transfers between Indirect Participants who hold an interest through a Direct Participant will be effected in accordance with the procedures of such Direct Participant.

DTC has advised Financeco and Solectron that it will take any action permitted to be taken by a holder of notes (including the presentation of notes for exchange as described above) only at the direction of one or more Direct Participants to whose account interests in the global notes are credited and only in respect of such portion of the aggregate principal amount at maturity of the notes to which such Direct Participant or Direct Participants has or have given direction. However, if there is an Event of Default under the notes, DTC reserves the right to exchange global notes (without the direction of one or more of its Direct Participants) for legended notes in certificated form, and to distribute such certificated forms of notes to its Direct Participants. See “— Exchange of Interests in Global Notes for Certificated Notes.”

Although DTC has agreed to the foregoing procedures to facilitate transfers of interests in the Global Notes among Direct Participants, they are under no obligation to perform or to continue to perform such procedures, and such procedures may be discontinued at any time. None of Financeco, Solectron, the initial purchasers or the Trustee shall have any responsibility for the performance by DTC or any of its Participants of their respective obligations under the rules and procedures governing any of their operations.

The information in this section concerning DTC and its book-entry system has been obtained from sources that Financeco and Solectron believe to be reliable, but Financeco and Solectron take no responsibility for the accuracy thereof.

Exchange of Interests in global notes for Certificated Notes

You may not exchange your beneficial interest in a Global Note for a definitive note in registered, certificated form without interest coupons (a “Certificated Note”) except as set forth below.

An entire global note may be exchanged for Certificated Notes if:

•  DTC (a) notifies Financeco that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for the global notes, or (b) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and in either case Financeco fails to appoint a successor depositary within 90 days of such notice;

•  Financeco, at Financeco’s option, notify the Trustee in writing that Financeco is electing to issue Certificated Notes; or

•  there shall have occurred and be continuing a Default or an Event of Default with respect to the notes.

In any such case, Financeco will notify the Trustee in writing that, upon surrender by the Participants of their interests in such global note, Certificated Notes will be issued to each person that such Participants and DTC identify as being a beneficial owner of the related notes.

59

In addition, beneficial interests in global notes held by any Participant may be exchanged for Certificated Notes upon request by such Direct Participant (for itself or on behalf of an Indirect Participant) to DTC or to the Trustee in accordance with customary DTC procedures. Certificated Notes delivered in exchange for any beneficial interest in any global note will be registered in the names, and issued in any approved denominations, requested by DTC on behalf of such Participants (in accordance with DTC’s customary procedures).

Any such exchange of beneficial interests in a global note for Certificated Notes will be effected through the DWAC system and an appropriate adjustment will be made to the records of the registrar to reflect a decrease in the principal amount at maturity of the global note.

None of Financeco, Solectron or the Trustee will be liable for any delay by the holder of any global note or DTC in identifying the beneficial owners of notes, and Financeco and the Trustee may conclusively rely on, and will be protected in relying on, instructions from the holder of the global note or DTC for all purposes.

Same Day Settlement and Payment

The Indenture requires that payments in respect of the notes represented by a global note (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) be made by wire transfer of immediately available same-day funds to the accounts specified by the holders of interests in such global note. With respect to Certificated Notes, Financeco and Solectron will make all payments of principal, premium, if any, interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, by wire transfer of immediately available same-day funds to the accounts specified by the Holders thereof or, if no such account is specified, by mailing a check to each such Holder’s registered address. Financeco and Solectron expect that secondary trading in the Certificated Notes will also be settled in immediately available funds.

Certain Definitions

Set forth below are certain defined terms used in the indenture. Reference is made to the indenture for a full disclosure of all such terms, as well as any other capitalized terms used herein for which no definition is provided.

“Acquired Debt” means, with respect to any specified Person:

(1) Indebtedness of any other Person existing at the time such other Person is merged with or into or became a Restricted Subsidiary of such specified Person, whether or not such Indebtedness is incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such other Person merging with or into, or becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of, such specified Person; and

(2) Indebtedness secured by a Lien encumbering any asset acquired by such specified Person, provided, that, in the case of this clause (2) only, such Acquired Debt shall be limited to the lesser of the fair market value of the asset (determined by Solectron in good faith) subject to such Lien and the total amount of such Indebtedness.

“Affiliate” of any specified Person means any other Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with such specified Person. For purposes of this definition, “control,” as used with respect to any Person, means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies of such Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by agreement or otherwise; provided that beneficial ownership of 10% or more of the Voting Stock of a Person will be deemed to be control.

CERTAIN U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

This section is a discussion of the material U.S. federal income tax considerations relating to the exchange offer. This summary does not provide a complete analysis of all potential tax considerations. The information provided below is based on existing authorities, all of which are subject to change or differing interpretations, possibly with retroactive effect. There can be no assurances that the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) will not challenge one or more of the tax consequences described herein, and we have not obtained, nor do we intend to obtain, a ruling from the IRS with respect to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the exchange offer. The summary generally applies only to U.S. Holders (as defined below) that hold the notes as “capital assets” (generally, for investment). This discussion does not purport to deal with all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to a particular U.S. Holder in light of the U.S. Holder’s circumstances (for example, persons subject to the alternative minimum tax provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or a U.S. Holder whose “functional currency” is not the U.S. dollar). Also, it is not intended to be wholly applicable to all categories of investors, some of which may be subject to special rules (such as dealers in securities or currencies, traders in securities that elect to use a mark-to-market method of accounting, banks, thrifts, regulated investment companies, insurance companies, tax-exempt entities, tax-deferred or other retirement accounts, and persons holding notes as part of a hedging or conversion transaction or a straddle, or persons deemed to sell notes under the constructive sale provisions of the Code). Finally, the summary does not describe the effect of the U.S. federal estate and gift tax laws or the effects of any applicable foreign, state or local laws.

For this purpose, the term “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of notes that for U.S. federal income tax purposes is (1) an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States, (2) a corporation, or an entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or any State of the United States, including the District of Columbia, or (3) an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source. A trust is a U.S. Holder if it (1) is subject to the primary supervision of a U.S. court and the control of one of more U.S. persons or (2) has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person. The term “U.S. Holder” also includes certain former citizens and residents of the Untied States. If a partnership (including for this purpose any entity, domestic or foreign, treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is a beneficial owner of a note, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. A holder of a note that is a partnership, and partners in such partnership, should consult their own tax advisors about the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the exchange offer.

Investors should consult their own tax advisors regarding the application of the U.S. federal income tax laws to their particular situations and the consequences of federal estate and gift tax laws, foreign, state and local laws, and tax treaties.

The exchange of original notes for exchange notes pursuant to the exchange offer will not be a taxable exchange for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, a holder would have the same adjusted basis and holding period in the exchange notes as the holder had in the original notes immediately before the exchange.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Each broker-dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account pursuant to the exchange offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes. This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of exchange notes received in exchange for original notes where such original notes were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. The company has agreed that, starting on the expiration date and ending on the close of business 90 days after the expiration date, it will make this prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. In addition, until          , 2006 , all dealers effecting transactions in the exchange notes may be required to deliver a prospectus.

Neither Solectron nor Financeco will receive any proceeds from any sale of exchange notes by brokers-dealers. Exchange notes received by broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to the exchange offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the

76

writing of options on the exchange notes or a combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer and/or the purchasers of any such exchange notes. Any broker-dealer that resells exchange notes that were received by it for its own account pursuant to the exchange offer and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such exchange notes may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Act and any profit of any such resale of exchange notes and any commissions or concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Act. The letter of transmittal states that by acknowledging that it will deliver and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Act.

For a period of 90 days after the expiration date, we will promptly send additional copies of this prospectus and any amendment or supplement to this prospectus to any broker-dealer that requests such documents in the letter of transmittal. We have agreed to pay all expenses incident to the exchange offer (including the expenses of one counsel for the holder of the securities) other than commissions or concessions of any brokers or dealers and will indemnify the holders of the securities (including any broker-dealers) against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

LEGAL MATTERS

The validity of the exchange notes and the related guarantees will be passed upon for us by Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, Professional Corporation, Palo Alto, California. Certain legal matters under Cayman Island law will be passed upon for us by Charles Adams Ritchie & Duckworth.

•  against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any proceeding.

Unless indemnification is mandated by law or the order, judgment or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction, we shall not indemnify any person if such indemnification:

•  would be inconsistent with a provision of our Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws, a resolution of the stockholders or an agreement in effect at the time of the accrual of the alleged cause of action asserted in the proceeding in which the expenses were incurred or other amounts were paid, which prohibits or otherwise limits indemnification, or

•  would be inconsistent with any condition expressly imposed by a court in approving a settlement.

Our Bylaws also permit us to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director, employee or other agent for any liability arising out of his or her actions in such capacity, regardless of whether the Bylaws would permit indemnification. We currently maintain liability insurance for our officers and directors.

We have entered into agreements to indemnify our directors and officers, in addition to the indemnification provided for in our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws. These agreements, among other things, indemnify our directors and officers for certain expenses, including attorney’s fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by any such person in any action or proceeding, including any action by or in the right of Solectron, arising

II-1

out of such person’s services as a director or officer of Solectron, any subsidiary of Solectron or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at the request of Solectron.

Item 22.   Undertakings

The undersigned Registrants hereby undertake that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, each filing of a registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in this registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

II-2

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the undersigned registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by the controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to respond to requests for information that is incorporated by reference into the Prospectus pursuant to Item 4, 10(b), 11 or 13 of this Form, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first class mail or other equally prompt means. This includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement through the date of responding to the request.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired or involved therein, that was not the subject of and included in the registration statement when it became effective.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Milpitas, State of California, on May 18, 2006.

5.04	Subject to the Statute, shares need not have distinguishing numbers.
5.05	The Directors may pay or authorise payment of a commission to any person in consideration of his subscribing or agreeing to subscribe (whether absolutely or conditionally) for any shares in the Company, or procuring or agreeing to procure subscriptions (whether absolute or conditional) for any shares in the Company, but a commission exceeding ten percent of the price at which the shares are issued, or to be issued, shall not be paid without the sanction of an ordinary resolution.

6.03	The Company shall not be bound to register more than four persons as the joint holders of any share.
6.04	Except as otherwise expressly provided by these Articles or as required by law or as ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction no person shall be entitled to recognition by the Company as holding any share upon any trust and the Company shall not be bound by, or be compelled in any way to recognise, (even when having notice thereof) any equitable, contingent, future or partial interest in any share or any other right in respect of any share except an absolute right to the entirety of the share in the holder.

4

If, notwithstanding this Article, notice of any trust is at the holder’s request entered in the Register or on a share certificate in respect of a share, then, except as aforesaid:

(a)	such notice shall be deemed to be solely for the holder’s convenience;
(b)	the Company shall not be required in any way to recognise any beneficiary, or the beneficiary, of the trust as having an interest in the share or shares concerned;
(c)	the Company shall not be concerned with the trust in any way, as to the identity or powers of the trustees, the validity, purposes or terms of the trust, the question of whether anything done in relation to the shares may amount to a breach of trust or otherwise; and
(d)	the holder shall keep the Company fully indemnified against any liability or expense which may be incurred or suffered as a direct or indirect consequence of the Company entering notice of the trust in the Register or on a share certificate and continuing to recognise the holder as having an absolute right to the entirety of the share or shares concerned.

6.05

The Company may, without the necessity of giving any notice, close the Register for any period or periods not exceeding in the aggregate forty-five days in each year.

6.06

In lieu of or apart from closing the Register the Directors may fix a date as the record date for determining members entitled to receive notice of a general meeting or a class meeting or for determining members entitled to vote at any such meeting or for determining members entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution or for determining members for any other purpose; but, unless so fixed, the record date shall be as follows:

(a)	as regards the entitlement to receive notice of a meeting or notice of any other matter, the date of despatch of the notice;
(b)	as regards the entitlement to vote at a meeting, and any adjournment thereof, the date of the original meeting;
(c)	as regards the entitlement to a dividend or other distribution, the date of the Directors’ resolution declaring the same.

7.	SHARE CERTIFICATES
7.01	Share certificates shall be in such form as the Directors determine provided that a share certificate shall specify the name of the holder and the number and class of shares to which it relates and the amount paid up thereon. Share certificates may not be issued in bearer form.

5

7.02	Share certificates shall be issued under the Seal affixed in accordance with these Articles provided that the Directors may authorise share certificates to be issued with the Seal or the authorised signature(s) affixed or represented by printing or other mechanical process.
7.03	Every person whose name is entered as a member in the Register shall be entitled on request to one certificate for all his shares of each class or, upon payment of a fee not exceeding ten United States dollars per additional certificate, to several certificates, each representing a part of his holding. A member whose holding of shares has been reduced by transfer, redemption or otherwise shall be entitled on request to a certificate for the balance.
7.04	In the case of joint holders the Company shall not be bound to issue more than one share certificate; and delivery of the certificate to one of the holders shall be sufficient delivery to all the holders.
7.05	A member wishing to exercise his rights, if any, to transfer or redeem shares in accordance with these Articles may do so only upon surrendering to the Company the share certificate(s), if any, representing such shares.
7.06	If a share certificate is damaged or defaced or alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, a new certificate representing the same shares may be issued to the holder upon request subject to delivery up of the old certificate or, if alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, compliance with such conditions as to evidence and indemnity and the payment of expenses of the Company in connection with the request (including the investigation of evidence) as the Directors think fit.

8.	TRANSFER OF SHARES
8.01	Transfers of shares shall be in writing in any usual or common form in use in the Cayman Islands or in any other form approved by the Directors.
8.02	A share transfer shall be signed by or on behalf of the transferor and, in the case of partly paid shares, by the transferee also.
8.03	The transferor of a share shall be deemed to remain the holder of the share until the name of the transferee is entered into the Register in respect thereof.
8.04	Subject to any special terms of issue of the shares, the Directors may in their absolute discretion decline to register a transfer of shares without assigning any reason therefor. If the Directors decline to register a transfer, they shall notify the transferee within thirty days after their decision.

6

8.05	In the case of a transfer of shares issued subject to special restrictions or requirements as to transfer the Directors may, as a condition of approval or registration, require the transferor to reimburse the Company for all expenses incurred in connection with the transfer.
8.06	The registration of transfers shall be suspended during any period in which the Register is closed in accordance with these Articles.
9.	TRANSMISSION OF SHARES
9.01	Following the death of a member the survivor or survivors where the deceased was a joint holder, and the legal personal representatives of the deceased where he was a sole holder, shall be the only persons recognised by the Company as having any title to the shares previously held by the deceased, but nothing in this Article shall release the estate of the deceased from any liability in respect of shares which had been held by him, whether solely or jointly.
9.02	A person becoming entitled to a share by reason of the death or bankruptcy of the holder or otherwise by operation of law may upon producing such evidence of his title as the Directors may require, elect either to be registered himself as the holder of the share or to make such transfer of the share as the holder could have made, but in either case the Directors shall have the same right to decline or suspend registration as they would have had in the case of a transfer by the holder. An election pursuant to this Sub-Article to be registered as holder shall be made in writing signed by or on behalf of the person making the election.
9.03	A person entitled to make an election pursuant to the foregoing Sub-Article shall, pending election, have the right to receive (and to give a good discharge for) all monies payable in respect of the share, the same right (if any) as the holder to call for the redemption of the share, and the same right as the holder to enter into an agreement for the purchase of the share by the Company; but such person shall not be entitled to receive notice of, or attend or vote at, general meetings or class meetings of the Company nor, save as aforesaid, to any of the rights or privileges of a member; and the Directors may at any time give him notice requiring election pursuant to the foregoing Sub-Article and, if there is no election within ninety days of the notice, the Directors may thereafter withhold all monies payable in respect of the share until such time as the election is made.
10.	REDEMPTION OF SHARES
10.01	Subject to the Statute, the Company is hereby authorised to issue shares which are to be redeemed or are liable to be redeemed at the option of the Company or the holder; but, save for shares declared to be redeemable by the Memorandum of Association, the Directors shall not issue redeemable shares without the sanction of an ordinary resolution.

7

10.02	The Company is hereby authorised to make payments in respect of the redemption of its shares out of capital or out of any other account or fund which can be authorised for this purpose in accordance with the Statute.
10.03	Unless fixed by the ordinary resolution sanctioning its issue the redemption price of a redeemable share, or the method of calculation thereof, shall be fixed by the Directors at or before the time of issue;
10.04	Unless otherwise provided or directed by the ordinary resolution sanctioning the issue of the shares concerned:

(a)	every share certificate representing a redeemable share shall indicate that the share is redeemable;
(b)	in the case of shares redeemable at the option of the holder a redemption notice from the holder may not be revoked without the agreement of the Directors;
(c)	at the time or in the circumstances specified for redemption the redeemed shares shall be cancelled and shall cease to confer on the holder any right or privilege, without prejudice to the right to receive the redemption price, which price shall become payable so soon as it can with due despatch be calculated, but subject to surrender of the relevant share certificate for cancellation (and reissue in respect of any balance);
(d)	the redemption price may be paid in any manner authorised by these Articles for the payment of dividends;
(e)	a delay in payment of the redemption price shall not affect the redemption but, in the case of a delay of more than thirty days, interest shall be paid for the period from the due date until actual payment at a rate which the Directors, after due enquiry, estimate to be representative of the rates being offered by class A banks in the Cayman Islands for thirty day deposits in the same currency;
(f)	the Directors may exercise as they think fit the powers conferred on the Company by Section 37(5) of the Statute (payment out of capital) but only if and to the extent that the redemption could not otherwise be made (or not without making a fresh issue of shares for this purpose);
(g)	subject as aforesaid, the Directors may determine as they think fit all questions that may arise concerning the manner in which the redemption of the shares shall or may be effected.

10.05 No share may be redeemed unless it is fully paid-up.

8

11.	PURCHASE OF SHARES BY THE COMPANY
11.01	Subject to the Statute, and with the sanction of an ordinary resolution authorising the manner and terms of purchase, the Directors may on behalf of the Company purchase any share of the Company (including a redeemable share) by agreement with the holder or pursuant to the terms of issue of the share, and may make payments in respect of such purchase out of capital or out of any other account or fund which can be authorised for this purpose in accordance with the Statute.
11.02	Shares purchased by the Company shall be cancelled and shall cease to confer any right or privilege on the seller.
11.03	No share may be purchased by the Company unless it is fully paid-up.
12.	CALLS ON SHARES AND FORFEITURE
12.01	If a share has been issued partly paid (or nil paid), then, subject to the terms of issue, the Directors may from time to time make calls upon the holder in respect of the monies unpaid on the share, whether in respect of the nominal value or the premium (if any), and, subject as aforesaid:-

(a)	the holder shall be given written notice of the call;
(b)	the date for payment of the call shall be not less than thirty days after the date of the notice of call;
(c)	payment of the call shall be made at the Registered Office or such other place as shall be specified in the notice of call;
(d)	a call may be made payable by installments;
(e)	a call may be revoked or postponed;
(f)	the Directors may differentiate between holders of different shares as to the time or amount of calls;
(g)	if full payment pursuant to a call is not made on or before the due date, interest may in the Directors’ discretion be charged at a rate not exceeding ten percent per annum;
(h)	if payment pursuant to a call is not made on or before the due date, the Directors may, in addition to interest under the foregoing paragraph, require the holder to indemnify the Company for any expenses incurred by reason of non-

9

	payment, including expenses incurred in enforcing the Company’s rights under these Articles;
(i)	the joint holders of a share shall be jointly and severally liable for all calls (and interest and other monies due in respect of calls) on the share;
(j)	a holder may not require the Company to make a call on his shares or, in the absence of a call, pay up any amount unpaid on his shares, but the Directors may accept advances from the holder to be applied against future calls on such terms as to interest and repayment as the Directors may determine.

12.02	Any sum which by the terms of issue of a share becomes payable upon issue or at any fixed date, whether in respect of the nominal value of the share or by way of premium, shall for the purposes of these Articles be deemed to have been duly called and to be immediately payable and, in the event of non-payment, all the provisions of these Articles as to the payment of interest, forfeiture or otherwise shall apply as if such sum had become payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.
12.03	If full payment pursuant to a call is not made on or before the due date, the Directors may at any time thereafter give the holder a forfeiture notice stating the amount which remains unpaid (including any accrued interest and expenses owed to the Company by reason of non-payment) and appointing the day, not less than fourteen days after the date of the forfeiture notice, on which the shares shall be forfeited unless payment of the stated amount has by then been paid in full. If the stated amount has not by then been paid in full the shares shall be forfeited accordingly.
12.04	In the event of forfeiture the holder shall cease to be a member in respect of the forfeited shares and shall cease to have any right, title or interest in or to the shares but shall remain liable for all amounts due before forfeiture; and the Company may enforce such liability without making any allowance for the value of the shares at the time of forfeiture.
12.05	A forfeited share shall become the property of the Company and may be sold, re-allotted or otherwise disposed of for the benefit of the Company to such person or persons, upon such terms and in such manner as the Directors think fit. Without limiting the foregoing generality, the Directors may determine whether and to what extent the share shall be treated as paid-up by payments made, or credited as made, thereon prior to forfeiture.
12.06	At any time before the sale, re-allotment or other disposal of a forfeited share the Directors may cancel the forfeiture on such terms as they think fit.
12.07	A note in the Register or a certificate under the hand of the Secretary that a share has been forfeited at a stated time shall be conclusive evidence of those facts in favour of any person to whom the share is sold, re-allotted or disposed of, and his title to

10

	share shall not be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the forfeiture, sale, re-allotment or disposal.
13.	LIEN ON SHARES
13.01	The Company shall have a first and paramount lien and charge on all shares, whether or not fully paid-up, for all the debts and obligations of the holder (or, in the case of joint holders, of any one or more of the joint holders) but the Directors may at any time waive the lien generally or as regards any particular debt or obligation or category of debts or obligations.
13.02	The registration of a transfer of shares shall operate as a waiver of the Company’s lien thereon in respect of the debts or obligations of the transferor.
13.03	The Company’s lien on a share shall extend to all dividends and other monies and benefits payable in respect of the share.
13.04	The Company may sell any share on which the Company has a lien if an amount secured by the lien is presently payable but not until the expiration of fourteen days after written notice to the holder stating and demanding payment of the said amount and stating the Directors’ intention of effecting a sale.
13.05	A sale by the Company pursuant to the foregoing Sub-Article shall be effected in such manner as the Directors think fit; and the Directors may authorise some person to do and execute such transfers and other documents and things on behalf of the holder as may appear to the Directors necessary or desirable for the purpose of carrying out the sale and entering the purchaser or purchasers in the Register.
13.06	The proceeds of a sale by the Company pursuant to this Article shall be applied in payment of the amount secured by the lien which is presently payable and the balance, if any, shall be paid to the person who was the holder of the shares before the sale unless there are debts or obligations of that person, not presently payable, which were secured by the lien on the shares, in which case the Company shall have the same lien and charge on the said balance of the proceeds of sale as it had on the shares.
14.	ALTERATION OF CAPITAL
14.01	Subject to the Statute the Company may from time to time by ordinary resolution alter the conditions of its Memorandum of Association to increase its share capital by new shares of such amount as it thinks expedient or, if the Company is exempted and has shares without par value, increase its share capital by such number of shares without nominal or par value, or increase the aggregate consideration for which its shares may be issued, as it thinks expedient. All new shares shall be subject to the provisions of these Articles concerning calls, forfeiture, lien, transfer, transmission, disposal by the Directors and otherwise as the original shares.

11

14.02 Subject to the Statute, the Company may from time to time by ordinary resolution alter the conditions of its Memorandum of Association to:

(a)	consolidate and divide all or any of its share capital into shares of larger amount than its existing shares;
(b)	subdivide its shares or any of them into shares of an amount smaller than that fixed by the Memorandum of Association; or
(c)	cancel shares which at the date of the passing of the resolution have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person, and diminish the amount of its share capital by the amount of the shares so cancelled or, in the case of shares without par value, diminish the number of shares into which its capital is divided.

	For the avoidance of doubt it is declared that paragraphs (a) and (b) above do not apply if the Company is an exempted company and its shares have no par value.
14.03	Subject to the Statute, the Company may from time to time by special resolution reduce its share capital in any way or alter any conditions of its Memorandum of Association relating to share capital.
15.	ALTERATION OF REGISTERED OFFICE, NAME AND OBJECTS
15.01	Subject to the Statute, the Company may by resolution of its Directors change the location of its Registered Office.
15.02	Subject to the Statute, the Company may from time to time by special resolution change its name or alter its objects or make any other alteration to its Memorandum of Association for which provision has not been made elsewhere in these Articles.
16.	GENERAL MEETINGS
16.01	The Company shall in each year hold a general meeting as its Annual General Meeting, provided that, if the Company is an exempted company, it may by ordinary resolution determine that no Annual General Meeting need be held in a particular year or years or indefinitely. The time and place of Annual General Meetings shall be determined by the Directors.
16.02	General meetings other than Annual General Meetings shall be called Extraordinary General Meetings. The Directors may call or authorise the calling of an Extraordinary General Meeting whenever they think fit.

12

17.	REQUISITION OF GENERAL MEETINGS
17.01	The Directors shall call an Extraordinary General Meeting on the requisition of members holding at the date of the requisition not less than one tenth in number of the issued shares of the Company for the time being carrying the right to vote at general meetings of the Company. To be effective the requisition shall state the objects of the meeting, shall be in writing, signed by the requisitionists, and shall be deposited at the Registered Office. The requisition may consist of several documents in like form each signed by one or more requisitionists.
17.02	If the Directors do not within twenty-one days from the date of the requisition duly proceed to call an Extraordinary General Meeting, the requisitionists, or any of them representing more than one half of the total voting rights of all of them, may themselves convene an Extraordinary General Meeting; but any meeting so called shall not be held more than ninety days after the requisition. An Extraordinary General Meeting called by requisitionists shall be called in the same manner, as nearly as possible, as that in which general meetings are to be called by the Directors.
17.03	The Directors shall not be treated for the purpose of this Article 17 as having duly proceeded to convene a general meeting if they convene a general meeting for a date more than 28 days after the date of the notice convening the general meeting.
18.	NOTICE OF GENERAL MEETINGS
18.01	At least fourteen clear days notice in writing shall be given of a general meeting to all members entitled as at the record date for the notice provided that:

(a)	an Extraordinary General Meeting may be called by shorter notice (but not shorter than two clear days) if so agreed by a member or members (or their proxies or representatives) holding in the aggregate, as at the record date for the meeting, shares conferring the right to cast seventy-five percent of the votes that could be cast on a poll if all members so entitled attended the meeting;
(b)	an Annual General Meeting or an Extraordinary General Meeting may be held without notice and without observing any of the requirements or provisions of these Articles concerning general meetings if so agreed by all the members (or their proxies or representatives) entitled as at the date of the meeting to attend and vote at general meetings;

	and agreement for the purposes of the foregoing paragraphs (a) or (b) may be reached before, during or within thirty days after the meeting concerned.
18.02	The notice of a general meeting shall specify:

13

(a)

the place, the day and the hour of the meeting and, if different, the record date for determining members entitled to attend and vote; and

(b)

the general nature of any special business to be conducted at the meeting; and for this purpose all business shall be deemed special which is transacted at an Extraordinary General Meeting, and also all business that is transacted at an Annual General Meeting with the exception of the consideration and approval of the report of the Directors, the financial statements of the Company and the report of the Auditors (if any), and the election or re-election of the Auditors and approval of their remuneration.

18.03	The Directors and the Auditors, if any, shall be entitled to receive notice of, and to attend and speak at, any general meeting of the Company.
18.04	The accidental omission to give notice to, or the non-receipt of notice by, any person entitled to receive notice shall not invalidate the proceedings at any general meeting.
19.	PROCEEDINGS AT GENERAL MEETINGS
19.01	No business shall be transacted at any general meeting unless a quorum of members is present at the time when the meeting proceeds to business; two members entitled to vote, present in person or by proxy, shall be a quorum provided that, if the Company has only one member entitled to vote, that member, present in person or by proxy, shall be a quorum.
19.02	If within half an hour from the time appointed for a meeting a quorum is not present, the meeting, if convened upon the requisition of members, shall be dissolved and in any other case it shall stand adjourned to the same day in the next week at the same time and place or to such other time or such other place as the Directors may determine and, if at the adjourned meeting a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for the meeting, the member or members present shall be a quorum.
19.03	The chairman, if any, of the board of Directors shall preside as chairman at every general meeting of the Company; or, if there is no such chairman or if he shall not be present at the time appointed for the meeting, or if he is unwilling to act, the Directors present shall elect one of their number to be chairman of the meeting; or, if no Directors are present at the time appointed for the meeting or no Director is willing to act as chairman, then the members present shall choose one of their number to be chairman of the meeting.
19.04	The chairman may, with the consent of any general meeting duly constituted, and shall if so directed by the meeting, adjourn the meeting from time to time and from place to place, but no business shall be transacted at any adjourned meeting except business which might lawfully have been transacted at the meeting from which the adjournment

14

	took place. When a meeting is adjourned for thirty days or more, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given as in the case of an original meeting; save as aforesaid it shall not be necessary to give any notice of an adjournment or of the business to be transacted at an adjourned general meeting.
19.05	At any general meeting a resolution put to the vote of the meeting shall be decided on a show of hands unless before or on the declaration of the result of the show of hands a poll is demanded by the chairman or any member entitled to vote, present in person or by proxy. Unless a poll is so demanded, a declaration by the chairman that a resolution has on a show of hands been carried, or carried unanimously, or by a particular majority, or lost, and an entry to that effect in the book containing the minutes of the proceedings of the Company shall be conclusive evidence of the fact without proof of the number or proportion of the votes recorded in favour of or against such resolution.
19.06	If any votes are counted which ought not to have been counted, or which might have been rejected, the error shall not vitiate the resolution unless pointed out at the same meeting, or at any adjournment thereof, and not in that case unless in the opinion of the chairman (whose decision shall be final and conclusive) it is of sufficient magnitude to vitiate the resolution.
19.07	If a poll is duly demanded, it shall be taken in such manner as the chairman directs. Without limiting the foregoing generality, the chairman may direct the use of ballot or voting papers, may appoint scrutineers and, subject to the next Sub-Article, may adjourn the meeting to some other time or place for the purpose of conducting the poll or declaring its result. The result of the poll shall be deemed to be the resolution of the meeting at which the poll was demanded.
19.08	A poll demanded on the election of a chairman and a poll demanded on a question of adjournment shall be taken forthwith. In any other case the poll shall be taken not more than thirty days after the date of the meeting or adjourned meeting at which the poll was demanded.
19.09	The demand for a poll shall not prevent the continuance of a meeting for the transaction of any business other than the question on which the poll has been demanded.
19.10	The demand for a poll may be withdrawn at any time before the taking of the poll, but in that case the chairman or any other member entitled to vote may then demand a poll.
19.11	In the case of an equality of votes, whether on a show of hands or on a poll, the chairman of the meeting at which the show of hands takes place or at which the poll is demanded shall be entitled to a second or casting vote.

15

20.	VOTES OF MEMBERS
20.01	Subject to any special rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any shares or any class of shares, every member as at the record date who is present in person or by proxy shall have:

(a)	on a show of hands one vote; and
(b)	on a poll one vote for each whole share (and a corresponding fraction of a vote for every fraction of a share) registered in his name in the Register as at the record date, provided that a partly paid share shall confer a fraction of a vote according to the proportion borne by the amount paid-up on the share to the total issue price (including share premium, if any).

20.02 In the case of joint holders the vote of the senior who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders, and for this purpose seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names of the holders stand in the Register.

20.03 A member shall not be entitled to attend or vote at general meetings if and as long as any call or other sum in respect of shares is presently payable by him.

20.04 Subject to production of such evidence as the Directors may require, a member of unsound mind, or in respect of whom an order has been made by any court in the Cayman Islands or elsewhere having jurisdiction in lunacy may vote on a show of hands or on a poll by his committee, receiver, curator bonis, guardian or other person appointed by the court, and any such committee, receiver, curator bonis, guardian or other person may vote by proxy.

20.05 No objection shall be raised to the qualification of any voter except at the general meeting at which the vote objected to is given or tendered or at any adjournment thereof, and every vote not disallowed at such general meeting or adjournment shall be valid for all purposes. Any such objection made in due time shall be referred to the chairman of the meeting whose decision shall be final and conclusive.

20.06 On a poll a member entitled to more than one vote need not, if he votes, use all his votes or cast all the votes he uses in the same way.

20.07 A corporation, whether formed in the Cayman Islands or elsewhere, which is a member may authorise such person as it thinks fit to act as its representative at any general meeting of the Company and the person so authorised shall be entitled to exercise the same voting and other powers on behalf of the corporation which he represents as the corporation could exercise if it were an individual member of the Company. A corporation whose representative is present at a meeting shall itself be deemed to be present in person at the meeting and shall be counted towards the

16

quorum. Nothing in this Article shall be construed as preventing a corporation from appointing a proxy.

21.	PROXIES
21.01	The appointment of a proxy shall be by written instrument under the hand of the appointor or his attorney duly authorised in writing or, if the appointor is a corporation, either under the corporation’s seal or under the hand of an officer or attorney duly authorised.
21.02	A proxy need not be a member of the Company.
21.03	The instrument appointing a proxy may be in any usual or common form or otherwise acceptable to the chairman of the meeting for which the instrument is first presented.
21.04	The instrument appointing a proxy may contain restrictions or directions as to the manner in which, or the matters upon which, the proxy may vote, but subject thereto the proxy may vote on any matter in such manner as the proxy thinks fit and may exercise the same powers as his appointor could exercise if present, including the power to demand a poll.
21.05	The instrument appointing a proxy may be expressed to be for a particular meeting or particular meetings or to be effective generally until revoked. An appointment for a particular meeting or meetings shall be presumed, in the absence of clear provision to the contrary, to extend to any adjournment of such meeting or meetings.
21.06	The instrument appointing a proxy (and any power of attorney or other authority under which it is signed, or a notarially certified copy of such authority) shall be deposited at the Registered Office or at such other place as is specified for that purpose in the notice of meeting; and such deposit shall be made no later than the time for holding the meeting, provided that the Directors may in giving notice of the meeting stipulate that instruments of proxy shall be deposited up to forty-eight hours before the time for holding the meeting. Such deposit may be made by telecopier transmission, but may be disallowed at or before the meeting by the Directors or the chairman of the meeting if in his or their opinion there are material doubts as to authenticity or content. The chairman of the meeting may at his discretion direct that the deposit of an instrument of proxy (or other requisite document) shall be deemed to have been duly made, if satisfied that the instrument of proxy duly signed (or other requisite document) is in the course of transmission to the Company.
21.07	A proxy shall have no powers, as such, at any meeting at which his appointor is present in person or, being a corporation, by a duly authorised representative. If two or more proxies are present at a meeting and in accordance with their terms of appointment seek to vote on the same matter in respect of the same shares, the

17

chairman shall in his absolute discretion decide which vote to accept and which vote or votes to disallow, or he may disallow all such votes.

21.08	The Directors may at the expense of the Company send to the members instruments of proxy (with or without prepaid postage for their return) for use at any general meeting, either in blank or (but only if such instruments are sent to all members entitled to attend and vote) nominating one or more Directors or other persons.
21.09	All resolutions passed at a general meeting shall, notwithstanding that it is afterwards discovered that there was some defect in the appointment of a proxy or that the appointment had been revoked or otherwise terminated prior to the meeting, be as valid as if every such proxy had been and remained duly appointed.
22.	CIRCULAR RESOLUTIONS OF THE MEMBERS
22.01	A resolution in writing, in one or more counterparts, signed by all the members for the time being entitled to receive notice of and attend and vote at general meetings (or, being corporations, by their duly authorised representatives) shall be as valid and effective as if the same had been passed at a general meeting of the Company duly called and held, and shall satisfy any requirement of these Articles for a resolution to be passed by the Company in general meeting.
23.	CLASS MEETINGS
23.01	All the provisions of these Articles regulating Extraordinary General Meetings (as to call, requisition, notice, proceedings, votes, proxies, circular resolutions and otherwise) apply equally to class meetings save only that references to members shall be construed as references to members holding shares of the relevant class.
24.	APPOINTMENT OF DIRECTORS
24.01	By ordinary resolution the Company may set a lower limit or an upper limit on the number of Directors and may from time to time vary any such limit; subject as aforesaid, there shall be at least one Director and there shall be no upper limit.
24.02	There shall be no shareholding qualification for Directors unless prescribed by special resolution.
24.03	The first Directors shall be appointed in writing by the subscribers of the Memorandum of Association or a majority of them.
24.04	The Directors may from time to time appoint any person to be a Director, either to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the existing Directors, subject to any upper limit on the number of Directors prescribed pursuant to this Article.

18

24.05	The Company may from time to time by ordinary resolution appoint any person to be a Director and may in like manner remove any Director from office, whether or not appointing another in his stead.
24.06	An appointment of a Director may be on terms that the Director shall automatically retire from office (unless he has sooner vacated office) at the next or a subsequent Annual General Meeting or upon any specified event or after any specified period; but no such term shall be implied in the absence of express provision.
24.07	Without prejudice to other provisions of these Articles for the retirement or removal of Directors, the office of a Director shall be vacated:

(a)	if he resigns as Director by notice to the Company in writing signed by him;
(b)	if he dies, becomes bankrupt or makes any arrangement or composition with his creditors generally; or
(c)	if he becomes of unsound mind or an order for his detention is made under the Mental Health Law or any analogous law of a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands.

25.	REMUNERATION OF DIRECTORS
25.01	Subject to any direction that may be given by the Company in general meeting, the remuneration of the Directors shall be in such amount or at such rate, and upon such terms as the Directors may from time to time determine. Special remuneration may be agreed with or given to any Director who has undertaken, or is required to undertake, any special work, service or mission beyond the ordinary routine work of a Director.
25.02	An Alternate Director shall not be remunerated as such by the Company provided that he may, if the Directors think fit, be remunerated for any special work, service or mission beyond the ordinary routine work of a Director or Alternate Director.
26.	TRANSACTIONS WITH DIRECTORS
26.01	A Director may hold any other executive or non-executive office or place of profit in or under the Company, other than the office of Auditor, on such terms as to tenure, remuneration, indemnity and otherwise as the Directors may determine.
26.02	A Director may act by himself or his firm in a professional capacity for the Company and shall be entitled to the same remuneration, indemnity and other privileges as if he were not a Director.
26.03	A Director may be a member or director or hold any other executive or non-executive office or place of profit in or under any company or association promoted by the

19

Company or in which the Company may be interested or associated, and may exercise and enjoy the rights, privileges and benefits of any such position without being accountable in any way to the Company.

26.04	No person shall be disqualified from the office of Director by, or be prevented by such office from, contracting with the Company, either as vendor, purchaser or otherwise, nor shall any such contract (or any other contract or arrangement entered into by or on behalf of the Company in which a Director shall be in any way interested) be liable to be avoided, nor shall any Director be liable to account to the Company for any profit realised by any such contract or arrangement; but the nature of his interest shall be disclosed by him at the meeting of the Directors at which the question of entering into the contract or arrangement is first taken into consideration or, if the Director was not at that time interested in the proposed contract or arrangement, then at the next meeting of the Directors held after he becomes so interested.
26.05	A Director may vote in respect of any contract, arrangement or other matter which may be proposed, notwithstanding that he has an interest therein provided that the nature of his interest shall have been disclosed to the Directors prior to the Directors’ resolution.
26.06	For the avoidance of doubt it is declared that a Director shall be regarded as having an interest in any matter in which he has a duty conflicting with his duty to the Company, and also in any proposal to ratify a contract or transaction entered into by him in the name or on behalf of the Company prior to its registration.
26.07	A general notice that a Director is a shareholder, director or officer of, or otherwise interested in, a specified company or association and is to be regarded as interested in any transaction with such company or association shall be a sufficient disclosure for the purposes of this Article and thereafter it shall not be necessary to give any further notice relating to a particular transaction with that company or association.
26.08	The Company may from time to time by ordinary resolution impose and vary rules more or less restrictive of Directors having conflicting interests.
26.09	The provisions of this Article concerning Directors apply equally to Alternate Directors. For the purposes of this Article an interest of a Director shall be deemed to be an interest of his Alternate Director, and vice versa.
27.	ALTERNATE DIRECTORS AND PROXIES
27.01	A Director may at any time appoint any person (including another Director) to be his Alternate Director and may at any time terminate such appointment. An appointment and a termination of appointment shall be by notice in writing signed by the Director and deposited at the Registered Office or delivered at a meeting of the Directors.

20

27.02	The appointment of an Alternate Director shall determine on the happening of any event which, if he were a Director, would cause him to vacate such office or if his appointor ceases for any reason to be a Director.
27.03	An Alternate Director shall be entitled to receive notices of meetings of the Directors and shall be entitled to attend and vote as a Director at any such meeting at which his appointor is not personally present and generally at such meeting to perform all the functions of his appointor as a Director; and for the purposes of the proceedings at such meeting these Articles shall apply as if he (instead of his appointor) were a Director, save that he may not himself appoint an Alternate Director or a proxy.
27.04	If an Alternate Director is himself a Director or attends a meeting of the Directors as the Alternate Director of more than one Director, his voting rights shall be cumulative.
27.05	Unless the Directors determine otherwise, an Alternate Director may also represent his appointor at meetings of any committee of the Directors on which his appointor serves; and the provisions of this Article shall apply equally to such committee meetings as to meetings of the Directors.
27.06	If so authorised by express provision in his notice of appointment, an Alternate Director may join in a circular resolution of the Directors adopted pursuant to these Articles and his signature of such resolution shall be as effective as the signature of his appointor.
27.07	Save as provided in these Articles an Alternate Director shall not, as such, have any power to act as a Director or to represent his appointor and shall not be deemed to be a Director for the purposes of these Articles.
27.08	A Director who is not present at a meeting of the Directors, and whose Alternate Director (if any) is not present at the meeting, may be represented at the meeting by a proxy duly appointed, in which event the presence and vote of the proxy shall be deemed to be that of the Director. All the provisions of these Articles regulating the appointment of proxies by members shall apply equally to the appointment of proxies by Directors.
28.	PROCEEDINGS OF DIRECTORS
28.01	A meeting of the Directors for the time being at which a quorum is present (or, if there is a sole Director, such Director) shall be competent to exercise all or any of the powers and discretions by or under these Articles for the time being vested in or exercisable by the Directors generally.
28.02	Except as otherwise provided by these Articles, the Directors shall meet together for the dispatch of business, convening, adjourning and otherwise regulating their meetings as they think fit.

21

28.03	A Director may, and on the request of a Director the Secretary shall, at any time summon a meeting of the Directors. Notice thereof shall be given to each Director and Alternate Director in writing or by telephone or orally. Not less than five clear days notice shall be given save that all the Directors (or their Alternate Directors) may waive notice of the meeting at, before or after the meeting is held.
28.04	A meeting of the Directors may be held, and any Director may participate in a meeting, by means of a conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting are capable of hearing each other; and such participation shall be deemed to constitute presence in person at the meeting.
28.05	The quorum necessary for the transaction of business at a meeting of the Directors may be fixed by the Directors and, unless so fixed at any other number, shall be two or, if there is only one Director for the time being in office, one.
28.06	For the avoidance of doubt it is declared that an Alternate Director shall not be entitled to attend or vote at a meeting of the Directors or be counted towards the quorum if his appointor be present; and the proxy of a Director shall not be so entitled or counted if either the appointing Director or his Alternate Director be present.
28.07	The Directors may at any time elect a chairman and, if they think fit, a deputy chairman and may determine the period for which they respectively are to hold office. Subject to any such determination, the Directors may at any time remove a chairman or deputy chairman from office. A chairman or deputy chairman shall automatically cease to hold office if for any reason he ceases to hold office as a Director.
28.08	Questions arising at a meeting of the Directors shall be decided by a majority of the votes cast. In the case of an equality of votes, the chairman shall have a second or casting vote.
28.09	The continuing Directors may act notwithstanding any vacancy in their body but, if and so long as their number is reduced below the number fixed by or pursuant to these Articles as the minimum number of Directors or as the necessary quorum for meetings of Directors, the continuing Directors may act for the purpose of increasing the number of Directors to the requisite number, or of summoning a general meeting of the Company, but for no other purpose.
28.10	All resolutions passed and other acts done by any meeting of the Directors or of a committee of Directors shall, notwithstanding that it is afterwards discovered that there was some defect in the appointment of any Director, Alternate Director or proxy, or that they or any of them were disqualified or had otherwise ceased to hold office, be as valid as if every such person had been duly appointed and qualified and continued to hold the office or position of Director, Alternate Director or proxy, as the case may

22

	be. This Article shall apply equally to a case in which there was no appointment as to the case in which there was a defective appointment.
28.11	A Director who is present at a meeting of the Directors at which action on any matter is taken shall be presumed to have assented to the action unless his dissent shall be entered in the minutes of the meeting or he shall file his written dissent with the person acting as the secretary of the meeting before the adjournment thereof or shall send his written dissent to the Registered Office immediately after the meeting, provided that this right of dissent shall not apply in the case of a Director who voted in favour of the action.
28.12	A resolution in writing, in one or more counterparts, signed by all the Directors shall be as valid and effectual as if it had been passed at a meeting of the Directors duly called and held.
29.	MINUTES AND REGISTERS
29.01	In accordance with the Statute the Directors shall cause minutes to be kept of all resolutions and proceedings of members, whether at general meetings, class meetings or otherwise, and of Directors or managers (if any), or committees of Directors (if any), whether at meetings or otherwise.

No such regulations made by the Company in general meeting may invalidate any prior act of the Directors. This Sub-Article is without prejudice to the provisions of these Articles permitting delegation by the Directors.
30.02	Notwithstanding that the Statute or the Memorandum of Association may permit the Company to pursue objects or exercise powers which are charitable or benevolent or

23

otherwise independent of the financial interests of the Company itself, the Directors shall not without the sanction of a special resolution pursue any such objects or exercise any such powers, provided that:

(a)	this Sub-Article does not apply to the declaration or payment of dividends, the redemption or purchase of shares or the conferring of other benefits upon members in accordance with these Articles;
(b)	The Directors on behalf of the Company may pay or procure the payment of gratuities, pensions and other benefits to persons who are or were officers or employees of the Company or any associated company, or widows or other dependents of such persons, whether or not the Company has any legal obligation to do so;
(c)	this Sub-Article does not apply to an action which, though it may in itself be gratuitous, is considered by the Directors to be in the financial interests of the Company;
(d)	if there is any reasonable doubt as to whether an action is prohibited by this Sub-Article, the Directors’ decision, if made in good faith, shall be conclusive.

30.03	The Directors may exercise all the powers of the Company to borrow money and to mortgage or charge its undertaking, property and uncalled capital or any part thereof by way of fixed charge, floating charge or other form of encumbrance, and to issue debentures, debenture stock and other securities whether outright or as security for any debt, liability or obligation of the Company or of any third party. In the case of a charge over the uncalled capital of the Company or any part of it, the Directors may delegate to the charge holder (or any person acting as his trustee or appointed by him) the power to make calls on members in respect of such uncalled capital and to sue in the name of the Company or otherwise for the recovery of monies becoming due in respect of calls and to give valid receipts for such monies; and such powers shall be assignable if expressed to be so.
30.04	All cheques, promissory notes, drafts, bills of exchange and other negotiable instruments and all receipts for monies paid to the Company shall be signed, drawn, accepted, endorsed or otherwise executed in such manner as the Directors may from time to time determine.

24

31.02	Subject to any contrary term or condition of his appointment, an assistant secretary may exercise or perform any task or power conferred upon the Secretary by the Statute, by these Articles or by resolution of the Directors, but shall comply with any proper direction which may be given by the Secretary.
31.03	A provision of the Statute or of these Articles requiring or authorising anything to be done by or to a Director and the Secretary shall not be satisfied by its being done by or to the same person acting both as Director and as or in place of the Secretary.
32.	COMMITTEES, OFFICERS, ATTORNEYS AND MANAGERS
32.01	The Directors may delegate any of their powers and discretions to committees consisting of such of their number as the Directors think fit and may at any time revoke any such delegation or discharge any such committee either wholly or in part. Every committee so formed shall in the exercise of the powers and discretions delegated to it conform to any regulations that may from time to time be imposed upon it by the Directors. All acts done by any such committee in conformity with such regulations and in fulfillment of the purposes for which it is appointed, but not otherwise, shall have the like force and effect as if done by the Directors. Subject to any regulations made by the Directors for this purpose, the meetings and proceedings of such committees shall be governed by the provisions of these Articles concerning the meetings and proceedings of the Directors, including provisions for circular resolutions.
32.02	The Directors may on behalf of the Company appoint from their own number or otherwise such officers to perform such duties, to exercise such powers and discretions and upon such terms as the Directors think fit; but an officer of the Company may at any time be removed from office by the Directors.
32.03	The Directors may on behalf of the Company by power of attorney under the Seal appoint any person or persons, whether nominated directly or indirectly by the Directors, to be the attorney or attorneys of the Company for such purposes and with such powers and discretions (not exceeding those vested in or exercisable by the Directors) and for such period and subject to such conditions as the Directors may think fit; and any such attorney, if so authorised, may execute deeds and instruments on behalf of the Company under his own hand and seal which shall bind the Company and have the same effect as if under the Seal of the Company.
32.04	The Directors may on behalf of the Company appoint such managers, custodians and agents with such duties, powers, and discretions and upon such terms as the Directors think fit.

25

33.	SEAL
33.01	The Company may, but need not, have a Seal. If the Company has a Seal, every document to which the Seal has been affixed shall be countersigned by a Director or the Secretary or some other person authorised for this purpose by the Directors or a committee of Directors.
33.02	Notwithstanding the foregoing Sub-Article the Seal may without further authority be affixed by way of authentication to any document required to be filed with the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands, and may be so affixed by any Director, Secretary or assistant secretary of the Company or any other person or institution having authority to file the document as aforesaid.
33.03	The Company may have one or more duplicate Seals, as permitted by the Statute; and, if the Directors think fit, a duplicate Seal may bear on its face the name of the country, territory, district or place where it is to be used.
34.	DIVIDENDS AND RESERVES
34.01	Subject to these Articles and subject to any direction of the Company in general meeting, the Directors may on behalf of the Company declare and pay dividends (including interim dividends) at such times and in such amounts as they think fit. For the avoidance of doubt it is declared that, subject as aforesaid, the Directors may, if it appears to them fair and equitable to do so, fix as the record date for a dividend a date prior to the declaration of the dividend.
34.02	Dividends may be declared and paid out of the profits of the Company, realised or unrealised, or from any reserve set aside from profits which the Directors determine is no longer needed, or not in the same amount. With the sanction of an ordinary resolution dividends may also be declared and paid out of share premium account or any other fund or account which can be authorised for this purpose in accordance with the Statute.
34.03	The Directors may before declaring a dividend set aside such sums as they think fit as a reserve or reserves for any proper purpose. Pending application, such sums may be employed in the business of the Company or invested, and need not be kept separate from other assets of the Company. The Directors may also, without placing the same to reserve, carry forward any profit which they decide not to distribute.
34.04	Subject to these Articles and subject to any special dividend rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any shares or class of shares, if a dividend is declared:

(a) every share shall confer on the holder as at the record date the right to participate in the dividend; and

26

(b) the dividend shall be declared and paid according to the amounts (other than share premium) paid up on shares as at the record date or, if the Company is an exempted company and its shares have no par value, then on an equal per share basis.

34.05	The Directors may deduct from any dividend all sums of money presently payable by the holder to the Company, whether in respect of shares or otherwise; and the Directors may retain any dividend on shares over which the Company has a lien for any obligation presently due.
34.06	Any dividend or other monies payable in respect of shares may be paid by cheque or warrant sent through the post directed to the registered address of the holder or, in the case of joint holders, the holder who is first named in the Register in respect of the shares; but this Sub-Article is without prejudice to any other method of payment which the Directors may think appropriate and, in the case of joint holders, payment to any one or more of them shall be a good discharge to the Company.
34.07	No dividend shall bear interest against the Company.
34.08	With the sanction of an ordinary resolution of the Company (or, as regards a dividend payable in respect of a class of shares, an ordinary resolution passed at a class meeting) the Directors may determine that a dividend shall be paid wholly or partly by the distribution of specific assets (which may consist of the shares or securities of any other company) and may settle all questions concerning such distribution. Without limiting the foregoing generality the Directors may fix the value of such specific assets, may determine that cash payments shall be made to some members in lieu of specific assets and may vest any such specific assets in trustees on such terms as the Directors think fit.
34.09	With the sanction of an ordinary resolution of the Company (or, as regards a dividend payable in respect of a class of shares, an ordinary resolution passed at a class meeting) the Directors may determine that:

(a)	the persons entitled to participate in the dividend shall have a right of election to accept shares of the Company credited as fully paid in satisfaction of all or (if the Directors so specify or permit) part of their dividend entitlement; or
(b)	a dividend shall be satisfied in whole or specified part by an issue of shares of the Company credited as fully paid up, subject to a right of election on the part of persons entitled to participate in the dividend to receive their dividend entitlement wholly or (if the Directors so permit) partly in cash;

27

and in either event the Directors may determine all questions that arise concerning the right of election, notification thereof to members, the basis and terms of issue of shares of the Company and otherwise.

35.	SHARE PREMIUM ACCOUNT
35.01	Subject to any direction from the Company in general meeting, the Directors may on behalf of the Company exercise all the powers and options conferred on the Company by the Statute in regard to the Company’s share premium account, save that unless expressly authorised by other provisions of these Articles the sanction of an ordinary resolution shall be required for any application of the share premium account in paying dividends to members.
36.	CAPITALISATION ISSUES
36.01	With the sanction of an ordinary resolution of the Company the Directors may on behalf of the Company appropriate any sum standing to the credit of the share premium account or capital redemption reserve or any sum of profits available for dividend purposes (or credited to any reserve set aside from profits which the Directors determine is no longer needed, or not in the same amount) to members in the proportions in which such sum would have been divisible amongst them if distributed by way of dividend, and to apply such sum on their behalf in paying up in full unissued shares to be issued to the members in the said proportions. The Directors may determine all questions that arise concerning a capitalisation issue including the basis and terms of issue.
37.	BOOKS OF ACCOUNT
37.01	The Directors shall cause proper books of account to be kept with respect to:

and proper books of account shall not be deemed to be kept with respect to the matters aforesaid if there are not kept such books as are necessary to give a true and fair view of the state of the Company’s affairs and to explain its transactions. Such books shall be kept at such place or places as the Directors determine.

37.02 The Directors shall from time to time determine whether and to what extent and at what times and places and under what conditions or regulations the accounts and book of the Company or any of them shall be open to the inspection of members not being

28

Directors; and no member (not being a Director) shall have any right of inspecting any account or book or document of the Company except as authorised by the Directors or by the Company in general meeting.

37.03 Subject to any waiver by the Company in general meeting of the requirements of this Sub-Article, the Directors shall lay before the Company in general meeting, or circulate to members, financial statements in respect of each financial year of the Company, consisting of:

(a)	a profit and loss account giving a true and fair view of the profit or loss of the Company for the financial year; and
(b)	a balance sheet giving a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company at the end of the financial year;

together with a report of the Directors reviewing the business of the Company during the financial year. The financial statements and the Directors’ report, together with the auditor’s report, if any, shall be laid before the Company in general meeting, or circulated to members, no later than 180 days after the end of the financial year.

Unless fixed by the Company in general meeting the remuneration of the Auditors shall be as determined by the Directors. Nothing in this Article shall be construed as making it obligatory to appoint Auditors.

38.03	The Auditors shall have right of access at all times to the Company’s books, accounts and vouchers and shall be entitled to require from the Company’s Directors and officers such information and explanations as the Auditors think necessary for the

29

38.04	The Auditors shall be entitled to attend any general meeting at which any financial statements which have been examined or reported on by them are to be laid before the Company and to make any statement or explanation they may desire with respect to the financial statements.

Delivery of this letter of transmittal to an address other than as set forth above or transmission of this letter of transmittal via facsimile to a number other than as set forth above will not constitute a valid delivery.

The undersigned acknowledges that he or she has received the prospectus, dated          , 2006, of Solectron Global Finance LTD, an exempted company with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands, which we refer to as the Company in this letter, and Solectron Corporation, and this letter of transmittal, which together constitute the Company’s and Solectron Corporation’s offer to exchange, which we refer to as the exchange offer in this letter, exchange notes, guaranteed by Solectron Corporation, which have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which we refer to as the Securities Act in this letter, for any and all of its $150,000,000 aggregate principal amount of outstanding 8.00% senior subordinated notes due 2016 guaranteed by Solectron Corporation.

The terms of the exchange notes, will be substantially similar to the original notes, except that the exchange notes will not be subject to transfer restrictions and registration rights relating to the original notes. We refer to this letter of transmittal as this letter.

For each original note accepted for exchange, the holder of such original note will receive an exchange note having a principal amount equal to that of the surrendered original note. The exchange notes will bear interest from the most recent date to which interest has been paid, if any, on the original notes or, if no interest has been paid on the original notes, from February 21, 2006. As a result, registered holders of exchange notes on the relevant record date for the first interest payment date following the consummation of the exchange offer will receive interest accruing from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from February 21, 2006. Original notes accepted for exchange will cease to accrue interest from and after the closing date of the exchange offer. Holders of original notes whose original notes are accepted for exchange will not receive any payment in respect of accrued interest on such original notes otherwise payable on any interest payment date the record date for which occurs on or after the closing date of the exchange offer.

This letter is to be completed by a holder of original notes if certificates for original notes are to be forwarded with this letter. Original notes tendered by book-entry transfer by holders of original notes in book-entry form must be made by delivering an agent’s message transmitted by the Depository Trust Company, which we refer to as DTC in this letter, pursuant to the procedures set forth in “The Exchange Offer — Book-Entry Transfer” section of the prospectus in lieu of this letter. The term “agent’s message” means a message, transmitted by DTC to, and received by, the exchange agent and forming a part of a book-entry confirmation (as defined below), which states that DTC has received an express acknowledgment from the tendering participant, which acknowledgment states that such participant has received and agreed to be bound by the terms and conditions of the exchange offer, including the representations and warranties contained in this letter of transmittal, as set forth in the prospectus and this letter of transmittal and that the Company may enforce this letter of transmittal against such participant. Holders of original notes whose certificates are not immediately available, or who are unable to deliver their certificates or confirmation of the book-entry tender of their original notes into the exchange agent’s account at DTC, which we refer to as a book-entry confirmation in this letter, and all other documents required by this letter to the exchange agent on or prior to the expiration date, must tender their original notes according to the guaranteed delivery procedures set forth in “The Exchange Offer — Guaranteed Delivery Procedures” section of the prospectus. See Instruction 1.

Delivery of documents to DTC does not constitute delivery to the exchange agent.

List below the original notes to which this letter relates. If the space provided below is inadequate, the certificate numbers and principal amount of original notes should be listed on a separate signed schedule affixed hereto.

SIGNATURE MUST BE PROVIDED BELOW

PLEASE READ THE ACCOMPANYING INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Subject to the terms and conditions of the exchange offer, the undersigned hereby tenders to the Company the aggregate principal amount of original notes indicated above. Subject to, and effective upon, the acceptance for exchange of the original notes tendered hereby, the undersigned hereby sells, assigns and transfers to, or upon the order of, the Company all right, title and interest in and to such original notes as are being tendered hereby.

The undersigned hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the exchange agent as the undersigned’s true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact with respect to such tendered original notes, with full power of substitution, among other things, to cause the original notes to be assigned, transferred and exchanged.

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to tender, sell, assign and transfer the original notes, and to acquire exchange notes issuable upon the exchange of such tendered original notes, and that, when the same are accepted for exchange, the Company will acquire good and unencumbered title thereto, free and clear of all liens, restrictions, charges and encumbrances and not subject to any adverse claim when the same are accepted by the Company. The undersigned hereby further represents that:

(1) any exchange notes received by the undersigned will be received in the ordinary course of business,

(2) the undersigned will have no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the original notes or the exchange notes within the meaning of the Securities Act,

(3) the undersigned is not an “affiliate” (as such term is defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act) of the Company,

(4) it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, the distribution of the exchange notes, and

(5) if the undersigned is a broker-dealer, then it will receive the exchange notes for its own account in exchange for the original notes that were acquired other than from the Company or its affiliates and as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities and that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of the exchange notes.

The undersigned acknowledges that this exchange offer is being made in reliance on interpretations by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, which we refer to as the SEC in this letter, as set forth in no-action letters issued to third parties, that the exchange notes issued pursuant to the exchange offer in exchange for the original notes may be offered for resale, resold and otherwise transferred by holders thereof (other than any such holder that is an “affiliate” of the Company within the meaning of Rule 405 of the Securities Act), without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act, provided that such exchange notes are acquired in the ordinary course of such holders’ business and such holders have no arrangement with any person to participate in the distribution of such exchange notes. However, the SEC has not considered the exchange offer in the context of a no-action letter and there can be no assurance that the staff of the SEC would make a similar determination with respect to the exchange offer as in other circumstances. The undersigned represents that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, a distribution of exchange notes and has no arrangement or understanding to participate in a distribution of exchange notes. If any holder is an affiliate of the Company or is engaged in or intends to engage in or has any arrangement or understanding with respect to the distribution of the exchange notes to be acquired pursuant to the exchange offer, such holder:

(1) may not participate in the exchange offer,

(2) can not rely on the applicable interpretations of the staff of the SEC, and

(3) must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale transaction.

If the undersigned is a broker-dealer that will receive exchange notes for its own account in exchange for original notes, it represents that the original notes to be exchanged for the exchange notes were acquired by it other than from the Company or its affiliates and as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities and acknowledges that it will deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale of such exchange notes. However, by

4

acknowledging and delivering a prospectus, the undersigned will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. By tendering, the undersigned further represents to the Company that:

(1) the undersigned and each beneficial owner acknowledge and agree that any person who is a broker-dealer registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or is participating in the exchange offer for the purpose of distributing the exchange notes must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with a secondary resale transaction of the exchange notes acquired by such person and cannot rely on the position of the staff of the SEC set forth in certain no-action letters, and

(2) the undersigned and each beneficial owner understand that a secondary resale of the original notes acquired by the undersigned directly from the Company should be covered by an effective registration statement containing the selling securityholder information required by Item 507 of Regulation S-K of the SEC.

The undersigned acknowledges that the Company’s acceptance of original notes validly tendered for exchange pursuant to any one of the procedures described in the section of the prospectus entitled “The Exchange Offer” and in the instructions hereto will constitute a binding agreement between the undersigned and the Company upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the exchange offer.

The undersigned will, upon request, execute and deliver any additional documents deemed by the Company to be necessary or desirable to complete the sale, assignment and transfer of the original notes tendered hereby. All authority conferred or agreed to be conferred in this letter and every obligation of the undersigned hereunder shall be binding upon the successors, assigns, heirs, executors, administrators, trustees in bankruptcy and legal representatives of the undersigned and shall not be affected by, and shall survive, the death or incapacity of the undersigned. This tender may be withdrawn only in accordance with the procedures set forth in “The Exchange Offer — Withdrawal of Tenders” section of the prospectus.

Unless otherwise indicated herein in the box entitled “Special Issuance Instructions” below, please issue the exchange notes (and, if applicable, substitute certificates representing original notes for any original notes not exchanged) in the name of the undersigned. Similarly, unless otherwise indicated under the box entitled “Special Delivery Instructions” below, please send the exchange notes (and, if applicable, substitute certificates representing original notes for any original notes not exchanged) to the undersigned at the address shown above in the box entitled “Description of Original Notes.”

The undersigned, by completing the table entitled “Description of Original Notes” above and signing this letter of transmittal, will be deemed to have tendered the original notes, as set forth in such table above. Please read this entire letter of transmittal carefully before completing the table above.

INSTRUCTIONS

Forming part of the terms and conditions of
the exchange offer of Solectron Global Finance LTD and Solectron Corporation

1.   Delivery of this letter and original notes; Guaranteed delivery procedures.

This letter is to be completed by holders of original notes if certificates for original notes are to be forwarded with this letter. Original notes tendered by book-entry transfer by holders of original notes in book-entry form must be made by delivering an agent’s message transmitted by the Depository Trust Company, which we refer to as DTC in this letter, in lieu of this letter pursuant to the procedures set forth in “The Exchange Offer — Book-Entry Transfer” section of the prospectus. The term “agent’s message” means a message, transmitted by DTC to and received by the exchange agent and forming a part of a book-entry confirmation, which states that DTC has received an express acknowledgment from the tendering participant, which acknowledgment states that such participant has received and agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of the exchange offer, including the representations and warranties contained in this letter, as set forth in the prospectus and this letter and that the Company may enforce this letter against such participant. In the case of original notes held:

(1) in certificated from, certificates for all physically tendered original notes as well as a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal (or manually signed facsimile of this letter) or

(2) in book-entry form, by a book-entry confirmation and delivery of an agent’s message,

and in either case any other documents required by this letter, must be received by the exchange agent at the address set forth herein on or prior to the expiration date, or the tendering holder must comply with the guaranteed delivery procedures set forth below. Original notes tendered hereby must be in denominations of principal amount of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof.

Holders whose certificates for original notes are not immediately available or who cannot deliver their certificates and all other required documents to the exchange agent on or prior to the expiration date, or who cannot complete the procedure for book-entry transfer on a timely basis, may tender their original notes pursuant to the guaranteed delivery procedures set forth in “The Exchange Offer — Guaranteed Delivery Procedures” section of the prospectus. Pursuant to such procedures,

(1) such tender must be made through an eligible institution,

(2) prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date, the exchange agent must receive from such eligible institution a properly completed and duly executed notice of guaranteed delivery, substantially in the form provided by the Company (by facsimile transmission, mail or hand delivery), setting forth the name and address of the holder of original notes and the amount of original notes tendered, stating that the tender is being made thereby and guaranteeing that within three New York Stock Exchange, which we refer to as NYSE in this letter, trading days after the date of execution of the notice of guaranteed delivery, the certificates for all physically tendered original notes, in proper form for transfer, together with a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal (or facsimile of this letter) or a book-entry confirmation for original notes held in book-entry form together with an agent’s message instead of this letter, as the case may be, with any required signature guarantees and any other documents required by this letter will be deposited by the eligible institution with the exchange agent, and

(3) the certificates for all physically tendered original notes, in proper form for transfer, together with a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal (or facsimile of this letter) or a book-entry confirmation for original notes held in book-entry form together with an agent’s message instead of this letter, as the case may be, with any required signature guarantees and all other documents required by this letter, are received by the exchange agent within three NYSE trading days after the date of execution of the notice of guaranteed delivery.

The method of delivery of this letter, the original notes and all other required documents is at the election and risk of the tendering holders, but the delivery will be deemed made only when actually received or confirmed by the exchange agent. If original notes are sent by mail, it is suggested that the mailing be registered mail, properly insured, with return receipt requested, made sufficiently in advance of the expiration date to permit delivery to the exchange agent prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date.

See “The Exchange Offer” section of the prospectus.

8

2.   Partial tenders (not applicable to noteholders who tender by book-entry transfer).

If less than all of the original notes evidenced by a submitted certificate are to be tendered, the tendering holder(s) should fill in the aggregate principal amount of original notes to be tendered in the box above entitled “Description of Original Notes — Aggregate Principal Amount of Original Notes Tendered.” A reissued certificate representing the balance of nontendered original notes will be sent to such tendering holder, unless otherwise provided in the appropriate box on this letter, promptly after the expiration date. All of the original notes delivered to the exchange agent will be deemed to have been tendered unless otherwise indicated.

3.   Signatures on this letter; Bond powers and endorsements; Guarantee of signatures.

If this letter is signed by the registered holder of the original notes tendered hereby, the signature must correspond exactly with the name as written on the face of the certificates without any change whatsoever.

If any tendered original notes are owned of record by two or more joint owners, all of such owners must sign this letter.

If any tendered original notes are registered in different names on several certificates, it will be necessary to complete, sign and submit as many separate copies of this letter as there are different registrations of certificates.

When this letter is signed by the registered holder or holders of the original notes specified herein and tendered hereby, no endorsements of certificates or separate bond powers are required. If, however, the exchange notes are to be issued, or any untendered original notes are to be reissued, to a person other than the registered holder, then endorsements of any certificates transmitted hereby or separate bond powers are required. Signatures on such certificate(s) must be guaranteed by an eligible institution.

If this letter is signed by a person other than the registered holder or holders of any certificate(s) specified herein, such certificate(s) must be endorsed or accompanied by appropriate bond powers, in either case signed exactly as the name or names of the registered holder or holders appear(s) on the certificate(s) and signatures on such certificate(s) must be guaranteed by an eligible institution.

If this letter or any certificates or bond powers are signed by trustees, executors, administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, officers of corporations or others acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, such persons should so indicate when signing, and, unless waived by the Company, proper evidence satisfactory to the Company of their authority to so act must be submitted.

Endorsements on certificates for original notes or signatures on bond powers required by this Instruction 3 must be guaranteed by a firm that is a financial institution (including most banks, savings and loan associations and brokerage houses) that is a participant in the Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program, the New York Stock Exchange Medallion Signature Program or the Stock Exchanges Medallion Program (each an “eligible institution”).

Signatures on this letter need not be guaranteed by an eligible institution, provided the original notes are tendered: (i) by a registered holder of original notes (which term, for purposes of the exchange offer, includes any participant in the DTC system whose name appears on a security position listing as the holder of such original notes) who has not completed the box entitled “Special Issuance Instructions” or “Special Delivery Instructions” on this letter, or (ii) for the account of an eligible institution.

4.   Special issuance and delivery instructions.

Tendering holders of original notes should indicate in the applicable box the name and address to which exchange notes issued pursuant to the exchange offer and/or substitute certificates evidencing original notes not exchanged are to be issued or sent, if different from the name or address of the person signing this letter. In the case of issuance in a different name, the employer identification or social security number of the person named must also be indicated. If no such instructions are given, such original notes not exchanged will be returned to the name and address of the person signing this letter.

5.   Backup and Nonresident Withholding

To ensure compliance with Treasury Department Circular 230, you are hereby notified that: (A) any federal tax advice contained herein is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, by any taxpayer for the purpose of avoiding penalties that may be imposed under the Internal Revenue Code; (B) the advice is written in connection with the promotion or marketing

9

of the transaction or the matters addressed herein; and (C) the taxpayer should seek advice based on the taxpayer’s particular circumstances from an independent tax advisor.

A U.S. holder of exchange notes may be subject to backup withholding at a rate of 28% with respect to interest paid on the exchange notes and proceeds from the sale, exchange, redemption or retirement of the exchange notes. In order to avoid backup withholding, a U.S. holder of exchange notes should provide the exchange agent with such holder’s correct Taxpayer Identification Number (“TIN”) and other certifications on the Substitute Form W-9 enclosed with this Letter of Transmittal. If the shares are in more than one name or are not in the name of the actual owner, please consult the enclosed Guidelines for Certification of Taxpayer Identification Number on Substitute IRS Form W-9 for additional guidance on which number to report. If the holder does not have a TIN, the holder should write “Applied For” in the space provided for the TIN. If a U.S. holder does not provide a TIN within 60 days of a reportable payment, backup withholding at a rate of 28% may apply to such payment. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the tax liability of a person subject to backup withholding may be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund from the Internal Revenue Service may be obtained.

Certain holders (including, among others, corporations and non-U.S. holders) are exempt from these backup withholding and reporting requirements. However, non-U.S. holders may be subject to nonresident withholding on interest payments unless they provide a United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or another appropriate version of Form W-8 and are otherwise eligible for the portfolio interest exception, as described in the prospectus relating to the original notes, and non-U.S. holders may in any case be subject to nonresident reporting on interest payments. Exempt persons who are U.S. holders should indicate their exempt status on Substitute Form W-9 by entering their correct TIN, marking the appropriate space, and signing and dating the Substitute Form W-9 in the space provided.

A non-U.S. holder should submit to the exchange agent the appropriate version of Form W-8, properly completed, including certification of such individual’s foreign status, and signed under penalty of perjury. Form W-8BEN is the version of Form W-8 most likely to apply to foreign persons claiming exemption from withholding. Non-U.S. holders should carefully read the instructions to Form W-8BEN and, if applicable, complete the required information, sign and date the Form W-8BEN and return the form to the exchange agent with the completed Letter of Transmittal. In certain cases, Form W-8BEN may not be the proper United States Internal Revenue Service form to be completed and returned, depending on the status of the foreign person claiming exemption from backup withholding. If you are a non-U.S. holder, you must complete and return the appropriate version of Form W-8. Form W-8BEN and other Forms W-8 are available from the exchange agent or from the Internal Revenue web site, at http://www.irs.ustreas.gov.

If the exchange agent is not provided with a properly completed Substitute Form W-9 or an IRS Form W-8BEN or other Form W-8, the holder may be subject to penalties imposed by the Internal Revenue Service. In addition, the depositary may be required to withhold 28% of any reportable payment made to the holder with respect to exchange notes.

Please consult your accountant or tax advisor for further guidance regarding the completion of Substitute Form W-9, Form W-8BEN, or another version of Form W-8 to claim exemption from withholding, or contact the exchange agent.

6.   Transfer taxes.

The Company will pay all transfer taxes, if any, applicable to the transfer of original notes to it or its order pursuant to the exchange offer. If, however, exchange notes and/or substitute original notes not exchanged are to be delivered to, or are to be registered or issued in the name of, any person other than the registered holder of the original notes tendered hereby, or if tendered original notes are registered in the name of any person other than the person signing this letter, or if a transfer tax is imposed for any reason other than the transfer of original notes to the Company or its order pursuant to the exchange offer, the amount of any such transfer taxes (whether imposed on the registered holder or any other persons) will be payable by the tendering holder. If satisfactory evidence of payment of such taxes or exemption therefrom is not submitted herewith, the amount of such transfer taxes will be billed directly to such tendering holder.

Except as provided in this Instruction 6, it will not be necessary for transfer tax stamps to be affixed to the original notes specified in this letter.

10

7.   Waiver of conditions.

The Company reserves the absolute right to waive satisfaction of any or all conditions enumerated in the prospectus.

8.   No conditional tenders.

No alternative, conditional, irregular or contingent tenders will be accepted. All tendering holders of original notes, by execution of this letter or an agent’s message in lieu thereof, shall waive any right to receive notice of the acceptance of their original notes for exchange.

Neither the Company, the exchange agent nor any other person is obligated to give notice of any defect or irregularity with respect to any tender of original notes nor shall any of them incur any liability for failure to give any such notice.

9.   Mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed original notes.

Any holder whose original notes have been mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed should contact the exchange agent at the address indicated above for further instructions.

10.   Withdrawal rights.

Tenders of original notes may be withdrawn at any time prior to 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on the expiration date.

For a withdrawal of a tender of original notes to be effective, a written notice of withdrawal, or a properly transmitted “Request Message” through DTC’s ATOP system, must be received by the exchange agent at the address set forth above prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date. Any such notice of withdrawal must:

(1) specify the name of the person having tendered the original notes to be withdrawn, which we refer to as the depositor in this letter,

(2) identify the original notes to be withdrawn (including certificate number or numbers and the principal amount of such original notes),

(3) contain a statement that such holder is withdrawing his election to have such original notes exchanged,

(4) other than a notice through DTC’s ATOP system, be signed by the holder in the same manner as the original signature on this letter by which such original notes were tendered (including any required signature guarantees) or be accompanied by documents of transfer to have the trustee with respect to the original notes register the transfer of such original notes in the name of the person withdrawing the tender, and

(5) specify the name in which such original notes are registered, if different from that of the depositor.

If original notes have been tendered pursuant to the procedure for book-entry transfer set forth in “The Exchange Offer — Book-Entry Transfer” section of the prospectus, any notice of withdrawal must comply with the applicable procedures of DTC. All questions as to the validity, form and eligibility (including time of receipt) of such notices will be determined by the Company, whose determination shall be final and binding on all parties. Any original notes so withdrawn will be deemed not to have been validly tendered for exchange for purposes of the exchange offer and no exchange notes will be issued with respect thereto unless the original notes so withdrawn are validly retendered.
