  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">On June&nbsp;9, 2008, Sanmina-SCI Corporation (the &#147;Company&#148;) amended
  and restated the Sanmina-SCI Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan, originally
  adopted effective January&nbsp;1, 2003 for the benefit of certain employees of
  the Company (the &#147;Employee Deferred Plan&#148;). The Employee Deferred Plan permits
  participating employees to defer payment of all or a portion of their salary
  and bonus until a future date or dates or the occurrence of an event selected
  by the participant (such as retirement or termination of employment). &#160;Prior to distribution, amounts deferred are
  credited with earnings and losses based on certain hypothetical investment
  options selected by participating employees.</font></p>

  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Also, on June&nbsp;9, 2008, the Company amended and restated the
  Sanmina-SCI Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan for Outside Directors,
  originally adopted effective June&nbsp;1, 2002 (the &#147;Director Deferred Plan&#148;).
  The Director Deferred Plan permits participating non-employee members of the
  Company&#146;s Board of Directors to defer payment of all or a portion of the fees
  payable to such directors, including the retainer for service as a member of
  the Board or any committees thereof and meeting fees. Fees payable in the form
  of restricted stock or options are not eligible for deferral. Deferred fees are
  converted into a number of share units determined by dividing the amount
  deferred by the fair market value of one share of the Company&#146;s Common Stock on
  the date such fees would otherwise by payable. Such amounts are paid in the
  form of Common Stock following a participant&#146;s termination of service as a
  director.</font></p>

  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Employee Deferred Plan and the Director Deferred Plan are considered
  &#147;unfunded plans&#148; for purposes of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
  1974, as amended (&#147;ERISA&#148;). As a result, all amounts deferred are considered
  unsecured general obligations of the Company. The amendments to the Employee
  Deferred Plan and the Director Deferred Plan were adopted in order for the
  provisions of the plans to continue to comply with the requirements of
  applicable law, including Section&nbsp;409A of the Internal Revenue Code and
  the regulations promulgated thereunder. The amendments are effective as of January&nbsp;1,
  2009 and apply to all deferrals made on or after January&nbsp;1, 2005.</font></p>

  and Director Deferred Plan as exhibits to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for
  the fiscal quarter ending June 28, 2008, expected to be filed on or before

  Item
  5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors;
  Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
  On June 9, 2008, Sanmina-SCI Corporation (the "Company") amended
  and restated the Sanmina-SCI Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan, originally
  adopted effective January 1, 2003 for the benefit of certain employees of
  the Company (the "Employee Deferred Plan"). The Employee Deferred Plan permits
  participating employees to defer payment of all or a portion of their salary
  and bonus until a future date or dates or the occurrence of an event selected
  by the participant (such as retirement or termination of employment).  Prior to distribution, amounts deferred are
  credited with earnings and losses based on certain hypothetical investment
  options selected by participating employees.
  Also, on June 9, 2008, the Company amended and restated the
  Sanmina-SCI Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan for Outside Directors,
  originally adopted effective June 1, 2002 (the "Director Deferred Plan").
  The Director Deferred Plan permits participating non-employee members of the
  Company's Board of Directors to defer payment of all or a portion of the fees
  payable to such directors, including the retainer for service as a member of
  the Board or any committees thereof and meeting fees. Fees payable in the form
  of restricted stock or options are not eligible for deferral. Deferred fees are
  converted into a number of share units determined by dividing the amount
  deferred by the fair market value of one share of the Company's Common Stock on
  the date such fees would otherwise by payable. Such amounts are paid in the
  form of Common Stock following a participant's termination of service as a
  director.
  The Employee Deferred Plan and the Director Deferred Plan are considered
  "unfunded plans" for purposes of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
  1974, as amended ("ERISA"). As a result, all amounts deferred are considered
  unsecured general obligations of the Company. The amendments to the Employee
  Deferred Plan and the Director Deferred Plan were adopted in order for the
  provisions of the plans to continue to comply with the requirements of
  applicable law, including Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and
  the regulations promulgated thereunder. The amendments are effective as of January 1,
  2009 and apply to all deferrals made on or after January 1, 2005.
  The Company will file the amended and restated Employee Deferred Plan
  and Director Deferred Plan as exhibits to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for
  the fiscal quarter ending June 28, 2008, expected to be filed on or before
  August 7, 2008.
