See notes to condensed consolidated financial statements. 5 EFTC CORPORATION NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1--Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. On March 31, 1998, EFTC Corporation acquired, through a merger with a subsidiary, RM Electronics Inc., doing business as Personal Electronics (Personal), in a business combination accounted for as a pooling of interests. EFTC issued 1,800,000 shares of common stock in exchange for all of the outstanding common stock of Personal. Accordingly, the Company's consolidated financial statements have been restated for all periods presented to combine the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of Personal with those of the Company. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1998. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report, Form 10-K and Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 1997. Pro Forma Net Income. Pro forma net income has been presented because Personal Electronics was acquired by EFTC in a business combination accounted for as a pooling of interests and was an S corporation which was not subject to income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been included in the consolidated financial statements for the operations of this company prior to its acquisition by EFTC. The pro forma adjustment to income taxes has been computed as if the combined company had been a taxable entity subject to income taxes for all periods prior to closing at the marginal rates applicable in such periods. Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per share (EPS) excludes dilution and is computed by dividing pro forma net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS includes the effects of the potential dilution of stock options, determined using the treasury stock method. The computation of weighted average shares includes the shares and options issued in connection with business combinations accounted for as a pooling of interests as if they had been outstanding for all periods prior to the combination.

Certain inventory and equipment were purchased in the amount of approximately $6.0 million and certain employees associated with the circuit card operation were hired by the company. In connection with the transaction, the Company entered into long-term Supply Agreements whereby EFTC will produce and supply circuit card assemblies to Agfa's Electronic Prepress Systems and Medical Diagonistics Divisions. On September 30, 1998, the Company completed the initial closing of an agreement with AlliedSignal, Inc. (AlliedSignal) for the acquisition of the circuit card assembly operation for the Business & General Aviation Enterprise of AlliedSignal Electronic & Aviation Systems. The operation, which is currently located in Lawrence, Kansas, will be relocated to a 41,000 square foot facility in nearby Ottawa, Kansas that was acquired by the Company from AlliedSignal for approximately $0.5 million. EFTC intends to renovate this facility for approximately another $1.0 million. As part of the transaction, the Company hired certain employees formerly employed by AlliedSignal. In connection with the transaction, the Company amended its long-term supply agreement with AlliedSignal to include production of circuit card assemblies by the Company at the Ottawa facility. A three-step transition process is planned for this transaction. During the first phase, the Company will manage the production for AlliedSignal using the Company's employees at AlliedSignal's Lawrence facility. At that time, all material will be consigned to the Company by AlliedSignal. In the second phase, the operation will be relocated to the Ottawa facility and materials will continue to be consigned by AlliedSignal. In the third phase, the operation will be converted to the Company's Oracle-based operating system and products will be produced by EFTC and sold to AlliedSignal. In addition to the building in Ottawa, the Company also acquired from AlliedSignal approximately $1.2 million in manufacturing equipment. 7 ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations The following discussion and analysis provide information that EFTC's management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the Company's results of operations and financial condition. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere herein, as well as with the consolidated financial statements, notes thereto and the related management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997. Results of Operations Net Sales. The Company's net sales increased by 73.1% to $52.8 million for the third quarter of 1998 compared to $30.5 million in the third quarter of 1997. The increase in net sales is due primarily to the inclusion of the operations of the Company's Ft. Lauderdale and Arizona facilities, acquired from AlliedSignal in August 1997 (the "AlliedSignal Acquisition"), the inclusion of Circuit Test, Inc. and affiliated companies (the "CTi Companies"), acquired on September 30, 1997 (the "CTi Acquisition") and the growth in revenues of Personal Electronics. The Company's net sales increased by 136.7% to $168.3 million during the nine months of 1998, from $71.1 million during the same period of 1997. The increase in net sales is due primarily to the acquisitions mentioned above, and the growth in revenues of Personal Electronics. Gross Profit. Gross profit increased by 40.4% to $6.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1998 compared to $4.7 million for the same period last year. The gross profit margin percentage decreased to 12.5% for the quarter ended September 30, 1998 from 15.5% for the quarter ended September 30, 1997. The gross profit margin percentage decreased in 1998 because the Company established additional infrastructure to accommodate anticipated revenue growth for the third quarter, but net sales were lower than expected due to soft market conditions in the electronics manufacturing services industry in general, schedule changes for avionics related products and a greater than anticipated decline in products related to semiconductor manufacturing equipment. In the first nine months of 1998, gross profit increased by 153.8% to $26.9 million compared to $10.6 million for the first nine months of 1997. The gross profit margin percentage for the first nine months of 1998 was 16.0% compared to 14.9% for the first nine months of 1997. The increase in gross profit margin is related to the inclusion in 1998 operations for the entire period of (i) the operations of the CTi Companies, which have a higher gross profit margin and (ii) the operations acquired from AlliedSignal in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida in August 1997, partially offset by the soft market conditions in the third quarter of 1998 discussed above. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative ("SGA") expense increased by 113.0% to $4.9 million for the third quarter ended September 30, 1998, compared with $2.3 million for the same period in 1997. As a percentage of net sales, SGA expense increased to 9.4% for the quarter ended September 30, 1998 from 7.5% from the quarter ended September 30, 1997. The increase in SGA expense is primarily due to the inclusion of the CTi Companies' and the Company's Ft. Lauderdale and Arizona facilities' SGA expense and increased investment in information technology and marketing. SGA expenses increased by 183.6% to $15.6 million for the first nine months of 1998 compared to $5.5 million for the first nine months of 1997. As a percentage of net sales, SGA increased to 9.3% in the first nine months of 1998 from 7.7% in the same period of fiscal 1997. The reasons for these increases are discussed above. Operating Income. Operating income decreased to $1.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1998 from $2.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1997. Operating income as a percentage of net sales decreased to 2.4% for the quarter ended September 30, 1998 from 7.8% for the quarter ended September 30, 1997. The decrease in operating income is attributable to lower than expected revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 1998 as discussed above. 9 Operating income for the first nine months of 1998 increased 82.0% to $9.1 million from $5.0 million for the first nine months of 1997. Operating income as a percentage of net sales decreased to 5.4% in the first nine months of 1998 from 7.0% in the same period of 1997. The increase in operating income is primarily due to the increased revenues associated with the acquisition of the CTi Companies and the AlliedSignal operations and the higher revenues associated with those acquisitions. The decrease in operating income as a percentage of sales is because of deterioration of gross margin as discussed above and increased SGA. Interest Expense. Interest expense was $1.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1998, compared to $0.5 million for the same period in 1997. The increase in interest is primarily the result of the incurrence of debt associated with the AlliedSignal Acquisition, the CTi Acquisition, and increased debt used to finance the growth of inventories and receivables. Interest expense for the first nine months of 1998 was $3.0 million compared to $1.1 million for the same period of 1997. The increase is primarily the result of increased debt as discussed above. Income Tax Expense. The effective income tax rate for the quarter ended September 30, 1998 was 37.0%, including pro forma income taxes, compared to 36.9% for the same period in 1997. The effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 was 45.5% including pro forma income taxes compared to 37.2% for the same period in 1997. The increase is due to the impact of nondeductible goodwill and the nondeductible portion of the acquisition costs in the first nine months of 1998, which increased the effective tax rate. Liquidity and Capital Resources At September 30, 1998, working capital totaled $66.7 million compared to $43.6 million at December 31, 1997. Cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, was $19.2 million compared to $10.7 million for the same period in 1997. Accounts receivable increased 68.1% to $42.7 million at September 30, 1998 from $25.4 million at December 31, 1997. Receivable turns (e.g., annualized sales divided by period end accounts receivable) increased to 5.3 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 from 4.5 for 1997. Inventories increased 42.3% to $65.6 million at September 30, 1998 from $46.1 million at December 31, 1997. Inventory turns (i.e., annualized cost of sales divided by period end inventory) increased to 2.9 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 from 2.1 for 1997. The Company anticipates further improvement of receivable turns because receivables for the Company's largest customer, AlliedSignal, should be collected sooner after full implementation of the Accelerated Payment Program (APP) that is administered by GE Capital Services. The APP provides AlliedSignal suppliers with fast invoice payment, electronic payment transfers, daily payment processing, and priority invoice processing. A discount of 1% is taken for the payment of invoices prior to the discount date, which is 30 days for EFTC. Inventory turns are also expected to increase as the Company's in-plant stores program is implemented in the fourth quarter of 1998 and first quarter of 1999. The in-plant stores program allows certain distributors to manage the Company's commodity parts and should reduce the current inventory levels of those parts in the future. The Company used cash to purchase capital equipment totaling $16.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 compared to $6.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The increase is primarily attributable to construction payments for buildings and improvements in the Northwest, Southwest, and Rocky Mountain locations and information technology investments at various locations. The Company also used cash to purchase certain inventory and assets associated with asset acquisitions (see Note 4 to the Company's financial statements included in this Report) in the amount of $7.8 million in the third quarter of 1998. In connection with the CTi Acquisition and the AlliedSignal Acquisition, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement, dated as of September 30, 1997, as amended (the "Bank One Loan"), provided by Bank One, 10 Colorado, N.A. The Bank One Loan initially provided for a $25 million revolving line of credit, maturing on September 30, 2000 and a $20 million term Loan maturing on September 30, 2002. Borrowings under the revolving facility are subject to limitation based on the value of the available collateral. The Bank One Loan is collateralized by substantially all of the Company's assets, including real estate and all of the outstanding capital stock and membership interests of the Company's subsidiaries, whether now owned or later acquired. The agreement for the Bank One Loan contains covenants restricting liens, capital expenditures, investments, borrowings, payment of dividends, mergers and acquisitions and sale of assets. In addition, the loan agreement, as amended, contains financial covenants restricting maximum annual capital expenditures, recapturing excess cash flow and requiring maintenance of the following ratios (as defined in the agreement for the Bank One Loan): (i) maximum total debt to EBITDA; (ii) minimum fixed charge coverage; (iii) minimum EBITDA to interest; and (iv) minimum tangible net worth requirement with periodic step-up. In March 1998, the Company issued Bank One a 15-day note in the principal amount of $5 million (the "Bank One Note") the proceeds of which were used to make payments to AlliedSignal in connection with the last phase of the AlliedSignal Acquisition and for working capital. The agreement for the Bank One Loan was amended in April 1998 to increase the revolving line of credit to $40 million from $25 million. The Bank One Note was repaid in April 1998, after the amendment to the Bank One Loan was completed. The Bank One Loan currently bears interest at a rate based on either the London Inter-Bank Offering Rate ("LIBOR") or Bank One prime rate plus applicable margins ranging from 2.50% to 0.00% for both the term and revolving facilities. In June 1998, the Company completed a registered public offering of 3,000,000 shares of common stock. Of the 3,000,000 shares, 1,600,000 were sold by the Company and 1,400,000 were sold by selling shareholders. The Company did not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares by the selling shareholders. The Company used the proceeds of such offering of $21.2 million to pay down the revolving loan under the Bank One Loan. As of September 30, 1998, the total outstanding principal amount under the Bank One Loan was $50.5 million, comprised of a term loan of $17.8 million and an outstanding balance on the revolving loan of $32.7 million. A total of $7.3 million remained available for borrowing under the Bank One Loan on that date. The Company is currently negotiating a sale-leaseback transaction with one of its directors for its manufacturing facilities in Arizona and Oregon. The proceeds will approximate $10.5 million and are to be used to reduce the revolving credit portion of the Bank One Loan. The Company intends to sign a 5 year operating lease for these facilities after their sale. This transaction is expected to be closed by the end of 1998. The Company may require additional capital to finance enhancements to, or expansions of, its manufacturing capacity through internal growth or acquisitions in accordance with its business strategy. Management believes that the need for working capital will continue to grow at a rate generally consistent with the growth of the Company's operations. The Company may seek additional funds, from time to time, through public or private debt or equity offerings, bank borrowing or leasing arrangements; however, no assurance can be given that financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company. The Year 2000 (Y2K) Issue The Y2K issue is a result of computer programs being written in the past using only a two digit year to save memory space, in lieu of a full four digit year. As a result, computer programs may recognize a date using a "00" year code as the year 1900 instead of the year 2000. This could create system failures or miscalculations causing disruptions in the operations of the Company and its suppliers and customers. The Company has undertaken a project to address the Y2K issue across its operating units. The initial evaluation of all primary systems is planned to be completed by the end of 1998 with remediation scheduled for the first half of 1999. The Company anticipates that its primary standard networks, operating systems, Oracle and other packaged applications, and desktop systems are or will be compliant upon the implementation of currently pending upgrades. Systems that have Y2K issues are expected to be identified during the evaluation period. The Company intends to either update or replace these systems as they are identified. Any embedded program applications, such as machine controllers and building systems, are to be evaluated and the manufacturers 11 contacted for remediation. This process has already begun at most sites, but is to be formalized as part of the Company's Y2K project. As part of the Company's Y2K project, the Company has begun contacting its significant suppliers and customers at the site or division level to determine the extent to which the Company is vulnerable to those third party failures to remediate their Y2K issues. As part of the Company's overall Y2K project this activity will be tracked across the Company to more efficiently track activity with common customers and suppliers. The Company will continue to contact significant suppliers and customers throughout 1999 to follow-up on their progress. However, there can be no assurance that the systems of the other companies on which the Company's business relies will be timely converted or that failure to convert or a conversion that is incompatible with the Company's own systems will not have an material adverse affect on the Company and it's operations. Expenditures in 1998 for the Company's Y2K project are not expected to significantly impact the Company's operating results. Management believes that expenditures in 1999 will not significantly impact the Company's operating results, assuming no significant Y2K issues are discovered in evaluating embedded technology. The Company's failure to resolve Y2K issues before December 31,1999 could result in system failures or miscalculations causing disruptions in operations, including a temporary inability to manufacture products, process transactions, send invoices or engage in other normal business activities. Additionally, the failure of third parties upon whom the Company's business relies to timely remediate their Y2K issues could result in disruptions in the Company's supply of parts and materials, late or misapplied invoices, temporary disruptions in order processing and other general problems related to the Company's daily business operations. While the Company believes its Y2K project will adequately address the Company's internal Y2K issues, until the Company can assess the Y2K readiness of a more significant number of its suppliers and customers, the overall risks associated with Y2K remain difficult to accurately describe and quantify. Thus there can be no assurance that the Y2K issue will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's operations. The Company has not yet adopted a Y2K contingency plan. It is the Company's goal to have the principal Y2K issues resolved by the end of the second quarter of 1999. As part of the Company's Y2K project, the Company intends to add a Y2K compliance resource to coordinate compliance and remediation across all divisions. Final Y2K verification is planned for the end of June 1999. However, the Company intends to develop a contingency plan for addressing Y2K issues by the end of March 1999 in the event the Company's Y2K project should fall behind schedule. Other matters On November 13, 1998, the Company announced the closure of its manufacturing facility located in Greeley, Colorado. The Company intends to transfer key customers to other locations. The shutdown of the Greeley facility will occur during the fourth quarter of 1998 and the first quarter of 1999. The Company will transfer fixed assets, inventory and other resources to other sites as needed. The Company anticipates charges for severance, consolidation and moving expenses, asset impairment for assets disposed of or held for sale, and inventory writedowns associated with customers not transferred to other EFTC facilities. The Company is in the process of determining the costs associated with the closure but currently estimates that pre-tax restructuring costs will approximate $10-$12 million. Quarterly Results Although management does not believe that the Company's business is affected by seasonal factors, the Company's sales and earnings may vary from quarter to quarter, depending primarily upon the timing of the customer orders and product mix. Therefore, the Company's operating results for any particular quarter may not be indicative of the results for any future quarter of the year. 12 Special Note Regarding Forward-looking Statements Certain statements in this Report constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws. In addition, EFTC or persons acting on its behalf sometimes make forward-looking statements in other written and oral communications. Such forward-looking statements may include, among other things, statements concerning the Company's plans, objectives and future economic prospects, prospects for achieving cost savings, increased capacity utilization, improved profitability and other improved financial indicators in connection with the closure of the Company's Greeley facility, the amount of restructuring charges to be incurred by the Company in connection with such closure, the prospects for successfully integrating acquired operations, other matters relating to the prospects for future operations; and other statements of expectations, beliefs, future plans and strategies, anticipated events or trends and similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of EFTC, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include, but are not limited to, changes in economic or business conditions in general or affecting the electronic products industry in particular, changes in the use of outsourcing by original equipment manufacturers, increased material prices and service competition within the electronic component, contract manufacturing and repair industries, changes in the competitive environment in which the Company operates, the continued growth of the industries targeted by the Company or its competitors or changes in the Company's management information needs, difficulties in implementing the Company's new management information system, difficulties in managing the Company's growth or in integrating new businesses, changes in customer needs and expectations, the Company's success in retaining customers affected by the closure of the Company's Greeley facility, the Company's success in limiting costs associated with such closure, the Company's ability to keep pace with technological developments, governmental actions and other factors identified as "Risk Factors" or otherwise described in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk Not Applicable 13 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings Two legal proceedings, one in Colorado state court, the other in U.S. District Court, were filed against the Company and certain of its officers, directors and shareholders during September and October 1998. The proceedings arise in connection with the decrease in the trading price of the Company's common stock that occurred in August 1998 and make substantially the same allegations. While both proceedings are in the pre-trial stage and the Company therefore cannot make any assessment of their ultimate impact, the Company believes the allegations made in the proceedings to be totally without merit. All defendants have indicated their intention to defend vigorously against all claims made in the proceedings. Craig Anderson v. Jack Calderon, Gerald J. Reid, Stuart W. Fuhlendorf, Brent L. Hofmeister, August P. Bruehlman, Robert Monaco, Raymond Marshall, Lucille A. Reid, Lloyd A. McConnell and Salomon Smith Barney (District Court for the County of Weld, Colorado, Case No. 98-CV-962). Plaintiff is a shareholder of EFTC who filed this lawsuit on September 17, 1998, and alleges that the defendants completed an offering of EFTC common stock in June 1998 in order to sell their EFTC holdings at artificially inflated prices. The complaint alleges violations of Sections 11-51-501(a, b, and c), 11-51-604(3), 11-51-604(5) and 11-51-604(4) of the Colorado Securities Act. Plaintiff seeks (a) certification of the complaint as a class action on behalf of all persons who purchased or otherwise acquired the common stock of EFTC between April 6, 1998 and August 20, 1998; (b) an award of compensatory and/or punitive damages, interest, costs and attorneys' fees to all members of the class; and (c) equitable relief available under state law. The defendants have not yet responded to the complaint. Joshua Grayck v. EFTC Corporation, Jack Calderon, Gerald J. Reid, Stuart W. Fuhlendorf, and Brent L. Hofmeister (United States District Court for the District of Colorado, Case No. 98-S-2178). Plaintiff is a shareholder of EFTC who filed this lawsuit on October 8, 1998. Plaintiff alleges that the defendants completed an offering of EFTC common stock in June 1998 in order to sell their EFTC holdings at artificially inflated prices. The complaint alleges violations of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. Plaintiff also alleges that EFTC and Mr. Calderon violated Section 20(a) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. Plaintiff seeks (a) certification of the complaint as a class action on behalf of all persons who purchased or otherwise acquired the common stock of EFTC between June 2, 1998 and August 20, 1998; (b) an award of compensatory and/or rescisionary damages, interest, costs and attorneys' fees to all members of the class; and (c) equitable relief available under federal and state law.

EFTC CORPORATION (Registrant) Date: November 16, 1998 /s/ Jack Calderon --------------------- Jack Calderon Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Date: November 16, 1998 /s/ Stuart W. Fuhlendorf ------------------------ Stuart W. Fuhlendorf Chief Financial Officer Date: November 16, 1998 /s/ Brent L. Hofmeister ----------------------- Brent L. Hofmeister, CPA Controller 15 EX-10.1 2 CALDERON AGREEMENT Exhibit 10.1 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT This Agreement is entered into as of June 5, 1998 (the "Effective Date"), between EFTC Corporation, a Colorado corporation (the "Company"), and Jack Calderon (the "Executive"), to be effective on the Effective Date. Except as specifically set forth herein, as of the Effective Date, this Agreement supersedes and replaces the agreement entered into effective August 5, 1996 between the Company and the Executive (the "Prior Employment Agreement"). The parties agree as follows: 1. Employment. The Company agrees to continue to employ the Executive and the Executive agrees to continue to be employed by the Company on the terms set forth in this Agreement. 2. Capacity and Duties. The Executive shall be employed by the Company as its Chief Executive Officer or in such other executive capacity as the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") shall determine. During his employment, the Executive shall perform the duties and bear the responsibilities commensurate with his position and shall serve the Company faithfully and to the best of his ability, under the direction of the Board. The Executive shall devote his entire working time, attention and energies to the business of the Company. His actions shall at all times be such that they do not discredit the Company or its products and services. Except for his involvement in personal investments, provided such involvement does not require any significant services on his part, the Executive shall not engage in any other business activity or activities that require significant personal services by the Executive or that, in the judgment of the Board, may conflict with the proper performance of the Executive's duties hereunder. 3. Compensation. (a) Salary. For all services rendered by the Executive, the Company shall pay the Executive during the term of this Agreement an initial salary at the rate of $250,000 per annum, through December 31, 1998, payable in arrears in the same manner as the Company generally pays its employees' salaries. Effective January 1, 1999, the Executive's annual salary shall be increased to $300,000 for the period from January 1, 1999 through December 31, 1999. Effective January 1, 2000, the Executive's annual salary shall be increased to $350,000 for each of the two years during the period from January 1, 2000 through December 31, 2001. The amount of the salary payable during the term of this Agreement may be increased at the discretion of the Board, although the Executive shall not have any right to an increase. (b) Bonus. The Executive may also receive a bonus of up to 100% of the Executive's annual rate of salary applicable for each calendar year as described in Section 3(a) based upon performance targets and objectives established by the Board with respect to each 1 such calendar year. Sixty percent (60%) of the annual bonus potential for each calendar year shall be based upon the attainment of financial performance objectives established by the Board, of which 30% shall be based upon earnings per share objectives, 15% shall be based upon net sales objectives, and 15% shall be based upon margin objectives. The remaining 40% annual bonus potential shall be based upon performance criteria to be established by the Board with respect to each calendar year. If this Agreement is terminated (other than under Section 5(c) or 5(d)), the Executive shall receive, within 90 days after the end of the calendar year in which such termination occurs, a pro rata portion of such bonus, if any, that accrues with respect to such calendar year based on the period during such year that the Executive was employed by the Company prior to termination. (c) Benefits. The Company also shall provide the Executive, during the term of this Agreement, with the benefits of such life and medical insurance plans, profit sharing and 401(k) plans and other employee fringe benefit plans as shall be provided generally to employees of the Company and for which the Executive may be eligible under the terms of such plans. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Company to adopt or maintain any such employee benefit plans. (d) Stock Options. The Company shall grant to the Executive non- qualified stock options (the "Options") to purchase 350,000 shares of the Company's common stock, $.01 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), with a per share exercise price (the "Exercise Price") of $16.00. The Options shall be issued under the Company's Equity Incentive Plan and shall be granted on the Effective Date. The Options shall vest in 10% increments, with each 10% of the foregoing 350,000 share Options vesting when the price of the Common Stock averages a closing sale price of an additional 20% or more in excess of the Exercise Price for 20 out of the last 30 trading days. For example, if the last closing sale price of the Common Stock averages 20% or more above the Exercise Price for 20 out of 30 consecutive trading days, 10% of the Options (or 35,000 shares) shall vest and an additional 35,000 shares shall vest at such time as the closing sale price of the Common Stock averages 40% or more above the Exercise Price for 20 out of 30 consecutive trading days. Notwithstanding the vesting schedule set forth above, all Options granted pursuant to this Agreement shall fully vest, if the Executive remains employed with the Company, at the end of seven years of continuous employment from the Effective Date. In addition, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in the Company's Equity Incentive Plan, in the event of a Change in Control, as defined in Section 5(d), the vesting schedule set forth above shall be applied based upon 130% of the per share value of the consideration paid for the Common Stock in the transaction that constitutes the Change in Control, if any, as if 130% of such per share value were the average closing sale price for 20 out of the last 30 trading days for purposes of such vesting schedule. Once a portion of the Options has become vested, that portion shall become exercisable one year following the date on which such portion became vested, provided, however, that any portion of the Options that becomes vested as a result of a Change in Control as provided in the immediately preceding sentence shall be immediately exercisable upon the date of the Change in Control. Only vested Options that become exercisable in accordance with 2 the provisions of this Agreement may be exercised by the Executive. If the employment of the Executive is terminated by the Company for reasons other than set forth in Section 5(c), or upon the termination of the Executive's employment with the Company at the end of the employment term specified in Section 4, all vested Options shall become exercisable on the date of termination and the Executive may exercise the vested Options within three months following the date of termination but not thereafter. Only Options that had become vested and exercisable on or before the date of termination may be exercised within the three month period. In the event of the death of the Executive, those persons entitled under his will or by the laws of descent may exercise all vested Options within one year from the date of death but not thereafter. The Options granted hereby shall be evidenced by such stock option certificates or agreements that incorporate provisions of the Company's Equity Incentive Plan not inconsistent with the foregoing as the Company determines to be appropriate. To the extent that the foregoing grants under the Company's Equity Incentive Plan require shareholder approval, the Company shall use its best efforts to obtain such approval at the Company's next annual meeting of shareholders. The Board intends and expects that the Options to be granted in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(d) will cover the entire employment period ending December 31, 2001. Any stock options granted to the Executive by the Company pursuant to the provisions of the prior Employment Agreement, or otherwise prior to the Effective Date, shall be governed by the terms of the Prior Employment Agreement or such other grant, and the foregoing provisions of this Section 3(d) shall only apply to the Options. (e) Sick Leave, Vacation. During the term of this Agreement, except as otherwise provided in Section 5(b), the Executive shall be entitled to sick leave consistent with the Company's customary sick leave policy and to four weeks vacation per year, which shall be taken at times mutually satisfactory to the Company and the Executive. (f) Company Car. The Company shall provide to the Executive for his use during the term of this Agreement a leased car consistent with the car currently provided to the Executive, and the Executive shall be provided the opportunity to purchase such car at the end of the lease term at the lease purchase price. If the Executive elects to purchase such a leased car with his own funds, the Company shall provide a comparable leased car to the Executive for his use during the term of this Agreement, provided that the Company shall not provide more than one leased car to the Executive at any time. The Company shall pay all registration and licensing fees and maintenance and insurance costs for the car. (g) Location of Employment. Executive shall reside near the Company's headquarters, which is currently located in Denver, Colorado, while employed with the Company. (h) Expenses. During the term of this Agreement, the Company shall reimburse the Executive for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Executive in connection with the business of the Company and in the performance of his duties under this Agreement upon presentation to the Company of an itemized accounting of such expenses with reasonable supporting data. 3 4. Term. Unless sooner terminated in accordance with Section 5, this Agreement shall have a term beginning on the Effective Date and ending on December 31, 2001. This Agreement shall continue thereafter from three-month period to three-month period until either party gives notice to the other at least 30 days prior to the end of the original or then current renewal term of his or its intention that this Agreement shall terminate at the end of such term. Sections 6, 7, 8 and 9 shall remain in full force and effect for the periods specified in such sections notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement. 5. Termination. (a) Death. If the Executive dies during the term of this Agreement, the Company shall pay his estate the compensation that would otherwise have been payable to him for the month in which his death occurs, together with any amounts representing accrued but unpaid bonus, accrued vacation, deferred compensation and similar amounts, and this Agreement shall terminate on the last day of such month. (b) Disability. If during the term of this Agreement the Executive is prevented from performing his duties by reason of illness or incapacity for a continuous period of 120 days, the Company may terminate this Agreement on 30 days' prior notice to the Executive or his duly appointed legal representative. For purposes of this Section 5(b), a period of illness or incapacity shall be deemed "continuous" notwithstanding the Executive's performance of his duties during such period for continuous periods of less than 15 days in duration. If the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 5(b) because of the Executive's disability, the Company shall pay the Executive the compensation that would otherwise have been payable to him for the month in which such termination occurs, together with any amounts representing accrued but unpaid bonus, accrued vacation, deferred compensation and similar amounts. (c) Cause. The Company may terminate this Agreement at any time, with notice simultaneous with the termination, for cause, with the prior approval of the Board. For purposes of this Agreement, cause shall be defined as one or more of the following: (i) willful misconduct that is materially injurious to the Company as determined by a majority of the Board (excluding the Executive if the Executive is then a director); (ii) conduct that would constitute a felony or other crime of moral turpitude where committed; (iii) failure to perform material required duties and obligations to the Company under this Agreement, which failure materially, adversely affects the Company and continues for at least 30 days after notice in writing thereof is given by the Board (excluding the Executive); and 4 (iv) a material breach by the Executive during the term of this Agreement of Section 6, 7 or 8 below. (d) At the Company's Election. The Company may terminate this Agreement at any time with the prior approval of the Board, without cause, by giving 30 days' written notice of termination to the Executive. On the effective date of any termination pursuant to this Section 5(d), the Company shall pay the Executive a severance payment equal to the amount that the Executive would have received had this Agreement remained in effect for the Severance Period (as defined below) and shall allow the Executive to participate during the Severance Period, at the Company's expense, in such employee welfare plans as are generally made available during such period to the Company's employees. The Company shall be deemed to have terminated the Executive's employment pursuant to this Section 5(d) if the Executive terminates such employment after a material reduction of his responsibilities, other benefits or the facilities or assistance at his disposal (other than a reduction that is part of an overall change for the Company's employees, is not disproportionately detrimental to the Executive and occurs before any Change in Control (as defined below)) or a change of more than 15 miles in location of the principal offices of the Company or of the Executive's primary office. (i) In order to receive a severance payment under this Section 5(d), the Executive must (A) resign from the Board, if he is then a member of it, and (B) sign a release, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, fully releasing the Company (and its officers, directors, shareholders, employees and agents) from any claim or cause of action that the Executive may have against the Company or such other persons relating in any way to this Agreement, the Executive's employment by the Company or any other aspect of the Executive's relationship with the Company, through the date of such release. The release shall be signed at such times as are reasonably requested by the Company in order for the release to be fully effective under state and federal age discrimination laws and other laws that may impose similar requirements, and shall prohibit the Executive from making any communications or taking other acts that may injure the business, goodwill or reputation of the Company or its officers, directors, shareholders, employees or agents. The Company may defer making severance payments until such time as any legally required revocation periods set forth in the release have expired. (ii) For purposes of this Section 5(d), the Severance Period shall be one year. A "Change of Control" shall be deemed to have occurred if (i) a person (as such term is used in Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act")) becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the 1934 Act) of shares of the Company or the Company's successor having 30% or more of the total number of votes that may be cast for the election of directors of the Company without the prior approval of at least a majority of the members of the Company's board of directors unaffiliated with such person (unless such person beneficially owned shares with at least 15% of such votes on the date of this 5 Agreement), or (ii) individuals who constitute the directors of the Company at the beginning of a 24-month period cease to constitute at least 2/3 of all directors at any time during such period, unless the election of any new or replacement directors was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the members of the Company's board of directors in office immediately prior to such period and of the new and replacement directors so approved. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Change in Control will be deemed to have occurred if the Executive or any group of which the Executive is a member is the person whose acquisition constituted the Change in Control. (e) End of Agreement Term. If this Agreement terminates at the end of the employment term specified in Section 4 and the Executive does not remain as an employee of the Company, then the Company shall pay the Executive severance compensation consisting of one year's base salary at the then base salary rate. (f) General Provisions Regarding Severance. Any payment pursuant to Section 5(d) or (e) shall be paid, at the Company's election, either in equal monthly installments over a 12-month period or in one lump sum. Any such payment shall be "grossed up," if necessary, so that the Executive is left after the payment of any excise tax imposed under Sections 280G and 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (or any successor statute) in connection with any benefits received upon termination with the amount he would have had if such excise tax had not been imposed on the Executive. 6. Confidential Information. (a) Confidentiality. The Executive acknowledges that the trade secrets, know-how and proprietary processes of the Company and its confidential business plans, strategies, concepts, prospects and financial data (collectively, "Confidential Information") are valuable, unique assets of the Company. The Executive shall not, during or after the term of this Agreement, disclose any of the Confidential Information (unless already generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a result of a violation by the Executive of this Section 6 or as required by law) to any person or entity for any purpose, nor shall the Executive use or permit the use of any Confidential Information except, in either case, as is required for the Executive to perform his duties as an employee of the Company. (b) Surrender or Destruction. The Executive will, upon termination of his employment with the Company, deliver to the Company all records, forms, contracts, studies, reports, appraisals, financial data, lists of names or other customer data, and any other articles or papers, computer tapes and materials that have come into his possession by reason of his employment with the Company, whether or not prepared by him, and he shall not retain memoranda or copies of any of those items. 7. Covenants Not to Compete or Interfere. (a) Scope. In view of the unique and valuable services that the Executive has been retained to render to the Company and the Executive's current and future 6 knowledge of the customers, trade secrets and other proprietary information relating to the business of the Company and its customers and suppliers, the Executive agrees that during the period he is an employee of the Company and for one year after any termination of this Agreement by the Company for cause or any voluntary termination by the Executive of his employment by the Company, he will not Participate In (as defined below) the businesses of electronic contract manufacturing or electronic repair services within the United States of America. (b) Definition. For purposes of this Section 7, "Participate In"means "directly or indirectly, for his own benefit or for, with or through any other person, firm or corporation, own, manage, operate, control, lend money to or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or be connected as a director, officer, employee, partner, consultant, agent, independent contractor or otherwise with, or acquiesce in the use of his name in." Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive shall not be deemed to Participate In a business merely because he owns less than 5% of the outstanding stock of a corporation (measured in voting power or equity), if, at the time of its acquisition by the Executive, such stock is listed on a national securities exchange or is reported on Nasdaq. If any restriction contained in this Section 7 is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable by reason of its duration, geographical scope or otherwise, then such provision shall be deemed reduced in extent, duration, geographical scope or otherwise by the minimum reduction necessary to cause the restriction to be enforceable. (c) Noninterference. During the period specified in Section 7(a) of this Agreement, the Executive shall not (i) directly or indirectly cause or attempt to cause any employee of the Company to leave the employ of the Company, (ii) in any way interfere with the relationship between the Company and any employee, customer or supplier, (iii) directly or indirectly hire any employee of the Company to work for any organization of which the Executive is an officer, director, employee, consultant, independent contractor or owner of an equity or other financial interest, or (iv) interfere or attempt to interfere with any transaction in which the Company was involved during the term of this Agreement or his employment. 8. Intellectual Property. (a) The Executive agrees to assign to the Company, or to any person or entity designated by the Company, the entire right, title and interest of the Executive in and to all inventions, ideas, discoveries and improvements (collectively, "Inventions"), whether patented or unpatented, and material subject to copyright, made or conceived by the Executive, solely or jointly, that arise out of or are related to research conducted by, for or under the direction of the Company, or that relate to methods, apparatuses, designs, products, processes or devices, sold, leased, used or under consideration or development by the Company at the time of such Invention. The Executive further acknowledges that all copyrightable materials developed or produced by the Executive within the scope of his employment by the Company constitute works made for hire. 7 (b) The Executive shall communicate promptly and disclose to the Company, in such form as the Company may reasonably request, all information, details and data pertaining to any such inventions, ideas, discoveries and improvements described in Section 8 above. 9. Injunctive Relief. Upon an actual or threatened breach by the Executive of Section 6 or Section 7 of this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled to an injunction restraining the Executive from such breach. Nothing in this Agreement shall limit the Company's ability to obtain any other remedies, including damages for such actual or threatened breach. 10. Waiver of Breach. A waiver by the Company of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by the Executive shall not be construed as a waiver of any breach of another provision or subsequent breach of the same provision. 11. Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability in any application of any provision in this Agreement will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision or of such provision in any other application. 12. Notices. All communications, requests, consents and other notices provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given if and when delivered personally by hand, sent by facsimile at the appropriate number indicated below with electronic confirmation of receipt, or mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed as follows: (i) If to the Company: EFTC Corporation 9351 Grant Street, 6th Floor Denver, Colorado 80229 Attn: Facsimile No. (303) 451-8210 with a copy to: Holme Roberts & Owen LLP 1700 Lincoln, Suite 4100 Denver, Colorado 80203 Attn: Francis R.
