               nearest whole share.                                                   
               The Asset Purchase Agreement also provided for an

                    2.2  Adjustment to Purchase Price.  The                           
               $27,500,000 aggregate consideration described in

               for dollar basis, to the extent that the aggregate net                 
               value of the Inventory and Fixed Assets at the Closing,                
               as determined in accordance with this Section 2.2, is                  
               greater than or less than $14,000,000.  Notwithstanding                
               the foregoing, no adjustment shall be made for an                      
               aggregate deviation from $14,000,000 less than or equal                
               to $500,000, and any adjustment shall be made only to                  
               the extent that such aggregate net value exceeds                       
               $14,500,000 or is less than $13,500,000.  To the extent                
               that the Purchase Price after such adjustment exceeds                  
               $27,500,000, Read-Rite shall pay such excess amount to                 
               Conner in cash on the Closing Date.  To the extent that                
               the Purchase Price after such adjustment is less than                  
               27,500,000, the number of shares delivered to Conner                   
               shall be appropriately reduced.                                        
                                                                                     
               Ernst and Young appraised the inventory and fixed assets in            
          the amount of $5,266,237.  As a result, there was a net downward            
          adjustment to the purchase price from $27,500,000 to                        
          $19,266,237.  Thus, while it was originally contemplated that               
          Conner Malaysia would exchange its assets for 2,391,304 shares              
          of Read-Rite stock, representing approximately 8.9 percent of
