Introduction

  Emulex is a leading designer, developer and supplier of a broad line of
fibre channel host adapters, hubs, ASICs and software products that enhance
access to and storage of electronic data and applications. Our products are
based on internally developed ASIC technology, are deployable across a variety
of heterogeneous network configurations and operating systems, and support
increasing volumes of stored data. We believe that we are the only company
that designs, develops and markets both fibre channel host adapters and hubs,
two of the core components of a complete fibre channel solution.

  Our fibre channel development efforts began in 1992, we shipped our first
fibre channel product in volume in 1996 and we believe today we are the
leading independent manufacturer of fibre channel host adapters. Over the
course of our history, we have also designed, developed and marketed
traditional networking products such as printer servers and network access
products. As an early entrant into the fibre channel market, we have leveraged
our expertise to achieve over 90 design wins and secure significant customer
relationships with over 20 key original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs,
including Compaq, Data General, EMC, Hitachi, IBM, Sequent and Siemens.

Industry background

  In recent years, the volume of stored electronic data in enterprises has
expanded significantly, due largely to the growth of data intensive
applications such as online transaction processing, data mining, data
warehousing, multimedia and Internet applications. As a result, both the
capacity and number of storage devices in the enterprise have increased.
Furthermore, with the increased use of and reliance on mission-critical
applications such as e-commerce and distributed enterprise software
applications, the real-time availability of electronic data has become more
important to the daily operations of enterprises. As a result, enterprises
face heightened requirements for data storage solutions that enable improved
access to and management of shared data, including solutions that offer
increased connectivity capabilities, higher performance and greater
reliability.

  Enterprises currently access, share and manage the rapidly expanding volume
of data utilizing two major data communications technologies: local area
network, or LAN, and input/output, or I/O. LAN technologies enable
communications among servers and client computers, while I/O technologies
enable communications between host computers and their attached high-speed
peripherals. The emergence of LAN architectures in the mid-1980s brought
multiple benefits to client-server data communications, including faster
transmission speeds, shared access to multiple servers and greater
connectivity capabilities in terms of number of connected devices as well as
distance between devices. These benefits, and the applications that leverage
LAN technologies, have driven the rapid adoption of LAN architectures in the
corporate enterprise over the past decade. As a result, the data
communications pathway between servers and client computers has become largely
networked with LAN technologies.

  Although LAN architectures have proliferated in client-server applications,
until recently I/O pathways between servers and attached peripherals, notably
storage subsystems, have failed to evolve to networking architectures.
Instead, traditional I/O architectures are server-centric, utilizing a point-
to-multipoint architecture

                                       2
<PAGE>

which requires that each storage subsystem in the corporate enterprise be
attached to a single server through which all requested data must pass. With
this traditional server-centric storage architecture, dedicated storage is
attached to each server using I/O technologies such as SCSI. Remote storage
systems are accessed through networked attached file servers. This model
results in "islands of storage" behind each server, where data requests must
traverse the LAN and pass through the file server associated with the specific
storage device. This circuitous method of accessing data degrades network
performance, increases latency, or delays, for network users, drains server
processing power and is difficult to scale. With the dramatic increase in
information storage and retrieval requirements, system performance has become
increasingly constrained by server-centric architectures and the inability of
traditional I/O technology to overcome communications bottlenecks.

 The emergence of fibre channel.

  Fibre channel, an American National Standards Institute, or ANSI, standard
communications technology, was introduced in 1994 to address traditional I/O
limitations and has been widely endorsed by the majority of the leading server
and storage systems manufacturers. Fibre channel offers the connectivity,
distance and access benefits of networking architectures combined with the
high performance and low latency needed for I/O applications. According to emf
Associates, the market for fibre channel hubs and adapters is expected to
expand from approximately $355 million in calendar 1998 to $4 billion in
calendar 2003. When compared to traditional I/O technologies, such as SCSI,
fibre channel benefits can be summarized as follows:

*  As specified in the Ultra2SCSI specification, the highest performance SCSI
   implementation for which both host computer and peripheral storage
   solutions are commercially available.

  Fibre channel has additional features that are designed to address the
emerging high-end connectivity, performance and reliability requirements of
the corporate enterprise, including the following:

  .  Specifications that encompass multiple classes of service that offer
     different levels of guaranteed service;

  .  Technology that serves as a single interface for both networking and I/O
     applications;

  .  Technology that transports a variety of traditional I/O and LAN
     protocols, including SCSI and Internet Protocol, or IP, over the same
     backbone; and

  .  The ability to support full-duplex (simultaneous bi-directional)
     communications, effectively doubling the available bandwidth.

  In addition to offering new levels of performance and flexibility to
traditional I/O applications, fibre channel's advanced capabilities enable new
architectures such as storage area networks, or SANs, and clustering, both of
which rely upon fibre channel's unique ability to connect multiple host
computers to multiple storage subsystems. The SAN-based architecture applies
LAN-type intelligence and management to data storage applications, allowing
data to move efficiently and reliably between multiple storage devices and
servers.

  In this new SAN model, where the SAN exists as a complementary network to
the LAN, I/O-intensive traffic is offloaded from the LAN, enabling a more
fail-safe I/O channel and eliminating the bottlenecks that degrade
performance. Furthermore, like nodes on a LAN, attached storage peripherals in
a SAN can be managed and diagnosed to detect errors, and traffic can be
rerouted accordingly in the event of a failure. A SAN essentially

                                       3
<PAGE>

transforms dedicated servers and storage devices into network resources,
greatly improving the performance and scalability of enterprise storage. By
providing shared server access, the cost of expensive enterprise storage can
be amortized across entire organizations. SANs are increasingly being deployed
to support a wide range of traditional enterprise computing applications. In
addition, SANs are being deployed as solutions in niche applications, such as
disaster recovery and remote data back-up.

  Clustering is also expanding as a connectivity implementation, building on
the benefits of fibre channel technology. A cluster consists of multiple
interconnected servers that work together as a single entity to cooperatively
provide applications, systems resources and data. Clustering enables load
distribution between servers and enhances availability and reliability by
providing multiple I/O paths between servers and storage subsystems. Unlike
LAN technologies, a fibre channel clustering architecture offers a single
interface to interconnect both processors and storage devices with reduced
latency which is important to maximizing performance in clustering
applications.

  The majority of fibre channel solutions installed today are delivered to end
users via integrated systems solutions offered by computer and storage systems
OEMs. As fibre channel gains market acceptance and competition intensifies,
OEMs are increasingly demanding fibre channel products that are optimized to
meet a variety of requirements, including reliability, scalability,
performance and customization. Computer and storage systems OEMs have
qualified and selected fibre channel products based on the products' ability
to satisfy end-user requirements above and beyond basic conformity with the
fibre channel standard.

Products

  We are a leading designer, developer and supplier of networking products
including a broad line of fibre channel host adapters, hubs, ASICs and
software products that enhance access to and storage of electronic data and
applications. We believe that we are the only company that designs, develops
and markets both host adapters and hubs, two of the core components of a
complete fibre channel solution. We are also a supplier of some traditional
networking products that include printer servers and network access products.

 Fibre Channel

  Our LightPulse host adapters and hubs constitute key components for
comprehensive fibre channel SANs that typically include host adapters, hubs,
ASICs, firmware, software and switches. We believe that our ability to offer a
combination of hubs and host adapters provides a compatible single-vendor
solution and eases customers' interoperability concerns. We time our fibre
channel introductions to address the growing demands of enterprise customers
as well as the evolving speed and capacity capabilities of complementary
products. As the adoption of fibre channel has expanded, the rate of our
product introductions has accelerated.

  Leveraging our expertise and experience in networking and I/O technology, we
have approached the storage problem with a networking perspective to maximize
the performance of our fibre channel solutions. We believe our products offer
the highest performance results in the industry, sustaining speeds in excess
of 150 MB/sec and 31,000 I/O transactions per second from a single host bus
adapter. Furthermore, our products support high-performance connectivity
features such as full-duplex data transfers which effectively double the
available bandwidth of a fibre channel network.

  Fibre channel host adapters connect host computers to a fibre channel
network. Our fibre channel host adapter line, which has evolved from the
LP6000 to the LP8000 in the high end, also encompasses lower-priced adapters
such as the LP3000 and LP850. Our high-end host adapters target enterprise
systems, while our lower-priced entry and open systems host adapters offer
highly featured solutions for standard operating environments. All of our
adapter products share the same core ASIC architecture, software and firmware.

  Our high-end adapters have always been designed to support a broad
implementation of the fibre channel specification, encompassing multiple
classes of service and all topologies, including full fabric support. In

                                       4
<PAGE>

addition, our enterprise applications strategy has led us to offer a variety
of other features in our high-end adapters, including simultaneous
transmission of multiple protocols, full-duplex capability and data integrity
features. Our high-end host adapters also provide the widest range of physical
interface options available, including copper, short-wave optical and long-
wave optical, to enable connectivity distances up to 10 kilometers. A broad
range of operating systems, including Windows NT, UNIX and NetWare, are
supported as well. Our service level interface, or SLI, enables our OEM
customers to develop highly differentiated products, while maintaining
complete software compatibility across product generations, allowing customers
to leverage software investments.

  To support I/O applications presently served by traditional techniques such
as SCSI, our product line also includes adapters that support only arbitrated
loop environments as well as adapters designed to address a standard open
systems environment based on Windows NT or NetWare. These entry level/open
systems host adapters include the LP3000 and our most recently introduced
adapter, the LP850. Based on the same hardware architecture as our high-end
adapters, the LP850 provides the same throughput and I/Os per second and many
of the same features as the LP8000 but is a cost-optimized, standard product
for the open server market. We offer the LP850 with fully certified drivers
for Windows NT and Novell, as well as BIOS and configuration utilities. The
LP3000 host adapter, directly targeted at today's SCSI market, provides
arbitrated loop connectivity for storage applications at SCSI prices for
Windows NT and NetWare environments.

  Hubs provide centralized wiring connection, improved network reliability and
a monitoring point in fibre channel arbitrated loop environments. Our hub
strategy focuses on leveraging our adapter expertise and understanding of
fibre channel signaling to improve the reliability and manageability of the
loop as a whole. In 1996, we became the first company to provide fibre channel
hubs to the market when we introduced our LightPulse hub product line. In
December 1998, we introduced a new line of innovative digital fibre channel
hubs that complements our earlier line of analog fibre channel hubs. Our
LH5000 digital retiming fibre channel hub provides significant enhancements in
arbitrated loop management. While analog hubs passively amplify signals,
digital hubs capture and regenerate signals, thereby increasing loop
reliability. Our LH5000 hub can collect diagnostic information and provide
fault and performance analysis. Using the LH5000, signal jitter and invalid
transmissions are eliminated, thereby enhancing loop integrity, stability and
scalability.

 Traditional Networking Products

  Our traditional networking products include printer servers and network
access products. We supply both external and embedded printer servers, which
provide LAN connectivity for printers. Our embedded printer servers, which
provide ethernet, fast ethernet and token ring connectivity, have been sold to
over 20 OEM printer suppliers, including Canon, IBM, Minolta, Ricoh and Xerox.
We have been providing network printer servers since 1989, and our printer
server solution supports five network protocols and over 38 operating systems.
The external printer server product line includes the NETJet, NETQue Pocket,
NETQue, NETQue Token Ring and NETQue Pro 2.

  Our network access products comprise a variety of products that provide
connectivity between computing resources across both LANs and wide area
networks, or WANs. These networking products contain a set of core
technologies that includes drivers supporting a broad array of operating
systems and network interface technologies that span many LAN and WAN
specifications. Our WAN adapter products provide wide area networking
connectivity for PC-based systems. Our communications servers provide
connectivity for terminals and PCs across a LAN. Our networking software
products link PCs on Novell NetWare LANS and DEC VAX/Alpha systems to provide
a seamless integration of the systems in which resources and information can
be shared. As we continue to focus on meeting the demands of the growing fibre
channel market, we expect that we will continue to reduce product offerings
and resources dedicated to these non-fibre channel products.

Intellectual Property

  Our ability to compete depends in part upon our ability to protect our
proprietary information through various means, including ownership of patents,
copyrights, trademarks and trade secrets as well as through contractual
provisions.

  We have eight patents issued, one patent allowed and 17 patent applications
pending in the U.S. Additionally, we have numerous patent applications pending
abroad. All of our issued fibre channel patents were granted within the past
three years. Six of our issued U.S. patents, our one U.S. patent allowed and
all of our pending patent applications relate to our fibre channel technology.

  All of our software products are copyrighted with our company's banners and
notices. We have been granted registration of 122 trademarks in the U.S. and
abroad. We also have eight pending trademark registrations in the U.S. and
abroad. Lastly, we rely on trade secret law and contractual provisions to
protect unique intellectual property we possess which we have determined
unnecessary or uneconomical to patent or copyright, or which is not otherwise
capable of more formal protection.

Selling and Marketing

  We sell our products worldwide to OEMs and end users and through other
distribution channels including VARs, systems integrators, industrial
distributors and resellers. Early development of the fibre channel market has
been dominated by OEMs, and our focus is to use fibre channel sales
specialists to expand opportunities with our existing OEMs, as well as to
develop new OEM relationships. As the fibre channel market continues to
develop, we intend to expand our worldwide distribution channels through
technical distributors, such as VARs and systems integrators. As fibre channel
becomes more widely deployed and standardized in the future, we intend to
leverage our two-tier distribution strategy of industrial distributors and
resellers used for our traditional networking products to complement our core
OEM relationships.

Competition

  The market for fibre channel technology is intensely competitive and is
characterized by frequent new product introductions, changing customer
preferences and evolving technology and industry standards.

  Our competition for fibre channel host adapter products consists primarily
of Hewlett-Packard, Interphase, JNI, LSI Logic and QLogic. Our principal
competitors in the fibre channel hub market are Gadzoox and Vixel. We also
face the threat of potential competition from new entrants into the fibre
channel market, including large technology companies who may develop or
acquire differentiating technology and then apply their resources including
established distribution channels and brand recognition to obtain significant
market share.

  We believe that the principal basis of fibre channel product competition
presently include reliability, scalability, connectivity performance and
customization. We believe that other competitive factors include pricing and
technical support. We believe that we compete favorably with respect to each
of these factors. We also believe that we have a competitive strength in the
alliances we have built with customers, particularly our close relationships
with OEM customers. We believe that our experience with distribution channels
will provide competitive benefits as the fibre channel market matures. Some of
our other competitive advantages include our early entry into fibre channel
technology, our workforce of highly experienced researchers and designers and
our intellectual property.

  Our fibre channel products may also compete at the end-user level with other
technology alternatives, such as SCSI, which are available from companies such
as Adaptec, LSI Logic and QLogic as well as a number of smaller companies. In
the future, other technologies may evolve to address the applications served
by fibre channel today.

  The printer server and network access industries are also extremely
competitive and price sensitive. Our primary competitors for printer server
products are Hewlett-Packard, Intel and Lexmark. Our network access products
compete with a number of companies, including Compaq and IBM.

                                       6
<PAGE>

Manufacturing and Suppliers

  In 1998, we implemented a strategy to outsource the manufacturing of all of
our products to K*TEC Electronics. Our products consist primarily of
electronic component parts assembled on internally designed printed circuit
boards which are sold as board-level products. Most component parts can be
purchased from two or more sources. However, some component parts can only be
obtained from single sources. For example, Intel is currently our sole
supplier for microprocessors used in our fibre channel products. Hewlett-
Packard and IBM are currently our sole suppliers for components that enable
our fibre channel products to connect to networks. Motorola is currently our
sole supplier of memory devices incorporated into our fibre channel products.
In addition, we design our own semiconductors which are embedded in our
traditional networking and fibre channel products, and these are manufactured
by third party semiconductor foundries such as Chip Express, LSI Logic and
VLSI. In addition to hardware, we design software to provide functionality to
our hardware products. We also license software from third party providers for
use with our traditional networking products. Most of these providers are the
sole source for this software. An inability or an unwillingness on the part of
any of these suppliers to provide us, or our contract manufacturer, with the
quality and quantity of products, parts or software that we need in a timely
fashion could have a material impact on our ability to supply products in
accordance with customer requirements. Both our software and the third party
software are sold primarily as embedded programs within the hardware products
but may be purchased separately as a software-only update for our products.

  The assembly operations required by our products are typical of the
electronics industry, and no unusual methods, procedures or equipment are
required. The sophisticated nature of the products, in most cases, requires
extensive testing by specialized test devices operated by skilled personnel.
This testing is provided by K*TEC Electronics. However, we also maintain an
internal test engineering group for continuing support of test operations. At
June 27, 1999, we had 16 permanent manufacturing employees at our facility in
Costa Mesa.

Employees

  At June 27, 1999, we employed 132 employees, as follows: 69 in engineering
and development, 26 in general and administrative, 21 in selling and marketing
and 16 in manufacturing. None of our employees is represented by a labor
union, and we believe our employee relations are good.

Risk Factors

We have experienced losses in our history.

  We incurred a net loss of $10,838 for the fiscal year ended June 28, 1998.
This net loss in 1998 included $5,314 of inventory charges related to
consolidation and $7,231 of consolidation charges in conjunction with the
closure of our Puerto Rico manufacturing operations and selected sales
offices. Additionally, in fiscal year 1999, we had $1,304 of additional
inventory charges related to this consolidation. While we have generated net
income for 10 of the last 11 quarters through the quarter ended June 27, 1999,
we cannot be certain that revenues will remain at current levels or improve or
that we will be profitable at such revenue levels.

Our operating results are difficult to forecast and may be adversely affected
by many factors.

  Our revenues and results of operations have varied on a quarterly basis in
the past and potentially may vary significantly in the future. Accordingly, we
believe that period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations are not
necessarily meaningful, and you should not rely on such comparisons as
indications of our future performance. Our revenues and results of operations
are difficult to forecast and could be adversely affected by many factors,
including, among others:

  .  The size, timing and terms of customer orders;

  .  The relatively long sales and deployment cycles for our products,
     particularly those sold through our OEM sales channels;

                                       7
<PAGE>

  .  Changes in our operating expenses;

  .  Our ability to develop and market new products;

  .  The ability of our contract manufacturer to produce and distribute our
     products in a timely fashion;

  .  The market acceptance of our new fibre channel products;

  .  The timing of the introduction or enhancement of products by us, our OEM
     customers and our competitors;

  .  The level of product and price competition;

  .  Our ability to expand our relationships with OEMs and distributors;

  .  Activities of and acquisitions by our competitors;

  .  Changes in technology, industry standards or consumer preferences;

  .  Changes in the mix of products sold, as our fibre channel products
     typically have higher margins than our traditional networking products;

  .  Changes in the mix of sales channels;

  .  The level of international sales;

  .  Seasonality;

  .  Personnel changes;

  .  Changes in customer budgeting cycles;

  .  Foreign currency exchange rates; and

  .  General economic conditions.

  As a result of these and other factors, our business, results of operations
and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

  There are other factors which contribute to the variability of our sales as
well. We generally ship products quickly after we receive orders, meaning that
we do not typically have a significant backlog of unfilled orders. As a
result, our revenues in a given quarter depend substantially on orders booked
in that quarter. Also, we typically generate a large percentage of our
quarterly revenues in the last month of the quarter. Additionally, OEM
customers purchases can vary significantly from quarter to quarter.

  A decrease in the number of orders we receive is likely to adversely and
disproportionately affect our quarterly results of operations. This is because
our expense levels are partially based on our expectations of future sales and
our expenses may be disproportionately large as compared to sales in a quarter
with reduced orders. Hence, we may be unable to adjust spending in a timely
manner to compensate for any unexpected revenue shortfall. Any shortfall in
sales in relation to our quarterly expectations or any delay of customer
orders would likely have an immediate and adverse impact on our business,
quarterly results of operations and financial condition.

Our business depends upon the development of the fibre channel market, and our
revenues will be limited if such development does not occur or occurs more
slowly than we anticipate.

  The size of our potential market is dependent upon the broad acceptance of
fibre channel technology as an alternative to other technologies traditionally
utilized for network and storage communications. The fibre channel market,
while rapidly evolving and attracting an increasing number of market
participants, is still at an early stage of development. We believe the fibre
channel market will continue to expand and that our investment in the fibre
channel market represents our greatest opportunity for revenue growth and
profitability in the future.

                                       8

However, we cannot be certain that fibre channel products will gain broader
market acceptance or that customers will choose our technology and products.
Fibre channel products accounted for 56 percent of our net revenues for the
fiscal year ended June 27, 1999. If the fibre channel market fails to develop,
develops more slowly than anticipated or attracts more competitors than we
expect (as discussed below), our business, results of operations and financial
condition would be materially adversely affected. A similar result would occur
if our products do not achieve market acceptance.

  Alternative technologies such as SCSI compete with fibre channel technology
for customers. Some SCSI technology companies already have well-established
relationships with our current and potential customers, have extensive
knowledge of the markets we serve and have better name recognition and more
extensive development, sales and marketing resources than we have. Our success
also depends both on our own ability and on the ability of our OEM customers
to develop fibre channel solutions that are competitive with other
technologies. Ultimately, our business depends upon our ability, along with
the ability of our OEM customers, to convince end users to adopt fibre channel
technology.

  While we have secured numerous design wins for our fibre channel products
from OEM customers, nearly all of these customers are still at the very early
stages of initial commercial shipments or at the developmental stage of
incorporating fibre channel into their systems. Only a limited number of OEM
customers are in full commercial production of products that incorporate our
fibre channel products. If our developmental and early stage customers are
unable to or otherwise do not ship systems that incorporate our products, or
if their shipped systems are not commercially successful, our business,
results of operations and financial condition would be materially adversely
affected.

The loss of one or more customers could harm our revenues.

  For the fiscal year ended June 27, 1999, sales to our top customer, IBM,
represented 19 percent of our net revenues. Additionally, sales to Compaq in
1999 represented 14 percent of our net revenues. For the fiscal year ended
June 28, 1998, sales to Sequent Computer Systems represented 12 percent of net
revenues and IBM represented 11 percent of net revenues. Sales to our top five
customers accounted for 54 percent of net revenues for the fiscal year ended
June 27, 1999 and for 41 percent of net revenues for the fiscal year ended
June 28, 1998. Although we have attempted to expand our base of customers, our
revenues in the future may nonetheless be similarly derived from a limited
number of customers.

The failure of one or more of our significant customers to timely make
payments could adversely affect our business.

  We are also subject to credit risk associated with the concentration of our
accounts receivable from our customers. If we were to lose one of our current
significant customers or did not receive their payments due to us, we could
experience a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations
and financial condition.

The loss of one or more of our OEM or distributor customers could adversely
affect our business.

  We rely almost exclusively on OEMs and distributors for our sales. For the
fiscal year ended June 27, 1999, we derived approximately 74 percent of our
net revenues from OEMs and 24 percent from distributors. In fiscal 1998, we
derived approximately 71 percent of our net revenues from OEMs and 25 percent
from distributors. We cannot be certain that we will retain our current OEM
and distributor customers or that we will be able to recruit additional or
replacement customers. As is common in an emerging technology industry, our
agreements with OEMs and distributors are typically non-exclusive and often
may be terminated by either party without cause. Indeed, many of our OEM and
distributor customers carry or utilize competing product lines. If we were to
suddenly lose one or more important OEM or distributor customers to a
competitor, our business, results of operations and financial condition could
be materially adversely affected.

                                       9
<PAGE>

Some of our OEM customers could become competitors.

  Some of our OEM customers could develop products internally that would
replace our products. The resulting reduction in sales of our products to our
OEM customers could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of
operations and financial condition.

Our industry is subject to rapid technological change, and we must keep pace
with the changes to successfully compete.

  The markets for our products are characterized by rapidly changing
technology, evolving industry standards and the frequent introduction of new
products and enhancements. Our future success depends in a large part on our
ability to enhance our existing products and to introduce new products on a
timely basis to meet changes in customer preferences and evolving industry
standards. We cannot be certain that we will be successful in developing,
manufacturing and marketing new products or product enhancements that respond
to such changes in a timely manner and achieve market acceptance. We also
cannot be certain that we will be able to develop the underlying core
technologies necessary to create new products and enhancements, or that we
will be able to license the core technologies from third parties.

  A key element of our business strategy is to develop multiple ASICs in order
to increase system performance and reduce manufacturing costs, thereby
enhancing the price/performance of our fibre channel products. We cannot be
certain that we will be successful at developing and incorporating ASICs
effectively and in a timely manner. Additionally, changes in technology and
consumer preference could potentially render our current products
uncompetitive or obsolete. If we are unable, for technological or other
reasons, to develop new products or enhance existing products in a timely
manner in response to technological and market changes, our business, results
of operations and financial condition would be materially adversely affected.

The failure of our OEM customers to keep up with rapid technological change
could adversely affect our business.

  Our revenues depend significantly upon the ability and willingness of our
OEM customers to develop and promote products on a timely basis that
incorporate our technology. The ability and willingness of OEM customers to
develop and promote such products is based upon a number of factors, such as:

  . The timely development by us and our OEM customers of new products with
    new functionality, increased speed and enhanced performance at acceptable
    prices;

  . The development costs facing our OEM customers;

  . The compatibility of new products with both existing and emerging
    industry standards;

  . Technological advances;

  . Intellectual property issues; and

  . Competition in general.

  We cannot be certain of the ability or willingness of our OEM customers to
continue developing, marketing and selling products that incorporate our
technology. Our business is dependent on our relationships with our OEM and
distributor customers, so the inability or unwillingness of any of our
significant customers to develop or promote products which use our technology
would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations
and financial condition.

A significant percentage of our revenues are from product lines which are
being phased out.

  We have shifted the focus of our business to fibre channel technology.
However, our revenues still depend significantly on sales of our traditional
networking products. These traditional networking products accounted

                                      10
<PAGE>

for 44 percent of our net revenues for the fiscal year ended June 27, 1999. If
the maturation of these products were to occur faster than we anticipate, our
business, results of operations and financial condition would be materially
adversely affected.

Our markets are highly competitive.

  The markets for our products are highly competitive and are characterized by
rapid technological advances, price erosion, frequent new product
introductions and evolving industry standards. Our current and potential
competition consists of major domestic and international companies, many of
which have substantially greater financial, technical, marketing and
distribution resources than we have. We expect that an increasing number of
companies will enter the markets for our products, particularly the new and
evolving fibre channel market. Furthermore, larger companies in other related
industries may develop or acquire technologies and apply their significant
resources, such as distribution channels and brand recognition, to acquire
significant market share. Emerging companies attempting to obtain a share of
the existing markets act as potential competition as well. Our competitors
continue to introduce products with improved price/performance
characteristics, and we will have to do the same to remain competitive.
Increased competition could result in significant price competition, reduced
revenues, lower profit margins or loss of market share, any of which would
have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and
financial condition. We cannot be certain that we will be able to compete
successfully against either current or potential competitors in the future.

  In the fibre channel market, we compete primarily against Gadzoox, Hewlett-
Packard, Interphase, JNI, LSI Logic, QLogic, Vixel and several smaller
companies to a lesser extent. In the printer server market, we compete
directly against a number of smaller companies and indirectly against Hewlett-
Packard, Intel and Lexmark, the two largest printer vendors, both of which
primarily use their own internally-developed printer servers. In the network
access market, we compete against numerous networking companies who offer
network access solutions.

  As is common in an emerging technology industry with non-exclusive
development arrangements, many of our OEM customers arrange second source
agreements to meet their requirements. Furthermore, in the future our OEM
customers may develop products that compete with ours or purchase from our
competitors and may terminate their relationships with us as a result.

A decrease in the average unit selling prices of our fibre channel products
could adversely affect our business.

  As the market for fibre channel products matures, it is likely that we will
experience downward pressure on the average unit selling prices of our fibre
channel products. To the extent that average unit selling prices of our fibre
channel products decrease without a corresponding decrease in the costs of
such products, our gross margins and financial performance could be materially
adversely affected.

Delays in product development could adversely affect our business.

  We have experienced delays in product development in the past and may
experience similar delays in the future. Given the short product life cycles
in the markets for our products, any delay or unanticipated difficulty
associated with new product introductions or product enhancements could have a
material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial
condition. Prior delays have resulted from numerous factors, such as:

  . Changing OEM product specifications;

  . Difficulties in hiring and retaining necessary personnel;

  . Difficulties in reallocating engineering resources and other resource
    limitations;

  . Difficulties with independent contractors;

                                      11
<PAGE>

  . Changing market or competitive product requirements;

  . Unanticipated engineering complexity;

  . Undetected errors or failures in software and hardware; and

  . Delays in the acceptance or shipment of products by OEM customers.

Our joint development activities may result in products that are not
commercially successful or that are not available in a timely fashion.

  We have engaged in joint development projects with third parties in the past
and we expect to continue doing so in the future. Joint development creates
several risks for us, including the loss of control over development of
aspects of the jointly-developed products and over the timing of product
availability. Accordingly, we face the risk that joint development activities
will result in products that are not commercially successful or that are not
available in a timely fashion.

The loss of third-party suppliers or our contract manufacturer could adversely
affect our business.

  We rely on third-party suppliers for components which are used in our
products, and we have experienced delays or difficulty in securing components
in the past. Key components that we use in our products may only be available
from single sources with which we do not have long-term contracts. In
particular, Intel is currently our sole supplier for microprocessors used in
our fibre channel products. IBM and Hewlett-Packard are currently our sole
suppliers for components that enable our fibre channel products to connect to
networks. Motorola is currently our sole supplier of memory devices
incorporated into our fibre channel products. In addition, we rely on LSI
Logic, Chip Express and VLSI to manufacture ASICs for our products. The
components we use for our fibre channel products are based on an emerging
technology and may not be available with the performance characteristics or in
the quantities that we require. Our future inability to supply products due to
a lack of components or our inability to redesign products to accept
alternatives in a timely manner would materially adversely affect our
business, results of operations and financial condition.

  Because we transitioned the production of our products to a contract
manufacturer, K*TEC Electronics, a division of Kent Electronics Corporation,
we plan to maintain only a minimal supply of product components. We now rely
on K*TEC Electronics to complete the majority of the component purchases for
our products. Consequently, we cannot be certain that the necessary components
will be available to meet our future requirements at favorable prices, if at
all. Moreover, because we rely on K*TEC Electronics to manufacture, store and
ship our products, if K*TEC Electronics is unable or unwilling to complete
production runs for us in the future, or experiences any significant delays in
completing production runs or shipping product, the manufacturing and sale of
our products would be temporarily suspended. An interruption in supply of our
products and the cost of qualifying and shifting production to an alternative
manufacturing facility would have a material adverse effect on our business,
results of operations and financial condition.

A decrease in the demand for high performance computer and storage systems
could adversely affect our business.

  A significant portion of our products are currently used in high-performance
computer and storage systems. Our fibre channel growth has been supported by
increasing demands for sophisticated networking and data storage solutions
which support enterprise computing requirements, including on-line transaction
processing, data mining, data warehousing, multimedia and Internet
applications. Should there be a slowing in the growth of demand for such
systems, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be
materially adversely affected.

                                      12
<PAGE>

The inadequacy of our intellectual property protections could adversely affect
our business.

  We believe that our continued success depends primarily on continuing
innovation, marketing and technical expertise, as well as the quality of
product support and customer relations. At the same time, our success is
partially dependent on the proprietary technology contained in our products.
We currently rely on a combination of patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade
secret laws and contractual provisions to establish and protect our
intellectual property rights in our products. For a more complete description
of our intellectual property, you should read "Business--Intellectual
Property." We cannot be certain that the steps we take to protect our
intellectual property will adequately protect our proprietary rights, that
others will not independently develop or otherwise acquire equivalent or
superior technology or that we can maintain such technology as trade secrets.
In addition, the laws of some of the countries in which our products are or
may be developed, manufactured or sold may not protect our products and
intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the United
States or at all. Our failure to protect our intellectual property rights
could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations
and financial condition.

Third-party claims of infringement of their intellectual property could
adversely affect our business.

  We believe that our products and technology do not infringe on the
intellectual property rights of others or upon intellectual property rights
that may be granted in the future pursuant to pending applications. We also
believe that we will not be required to obtain licenses of technology owned by
other parties. However, we occasionally receive communications from third
parties alleging patent infringement, and there is always the chance that
third parties may assert infringement claims against us. Any such claims, with
or without merit, could result in costly litigation, cause product shipment
delays or require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements. We cannot
be certain that the necessary licenses will be available or that they can be
obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we were to fail to obtain such
royalty or licensing agreements in a timely manner and on reasonable terms,
our business, results of operations and financial condition would be
materially adversely affected.

The loss of key technical personnel could adversely affect our business.

  Our success depends to a significant degree upon the performance and
continued service of engineers involved in the development of our fibre
channel technology and technical support of fibre channel products and
customers. Our future success depends upon our ability to attract, train and
retain such personnel. We will need to increase the number of technical staff
members with experience in high-speed networking applications as we further
develop the fibre channel product line. Competition for such highly skilled
employees in our industry is intense, and we cannot be certain that we will be
successful in recruiting and retaining such personnel. In addition, employees
may leave our company and subsequently compete against us. The loss of these
key technical employees could have a material adverse effect on our business,
results of operations and financial condition.

Our international business activities subject us to risks that could adversely
affect our business.

  During the fiscal year ended June 27, 1999, sales in the United States
accounted for 68 percent of our net revenues, sales in Europe accounted for 27
percent of our net revenues, and sales in the Pacific Rim countries accounted
for 5 percent of our net revenues. During the fiscal year ended June 28, 1998,
sales in the United States accounted for 65 percent of net revenues, sales in
Europe accounted for 26 percent of our net revenues, and sales in the Pacific
Rim countries accounted for 9 percent of our net revenues. We expect that
sales in the United States and Europe will continue to account for the
substantial majority of our revenues for the foreseeable future.

                                      13
<PAGE>

  We encounter risks inherent in international operations. All of our sales
are currently denominated in U.S. dollars. As a result, if the value of the
U.S. dollar increases relative to foreign currencies, our products could
become less competitive in international markets. Our international business
activities could be limited or disrupted by any of the following factors:

  . The imposition of governmental controls and regulatory requirements;

  . The costs and risks of localizing products for foreign countries;

  . Restrictions on the export of technology;

  . Financial and stock market dislocations;

  . Longer accounts receivable payment cycles;

  . Potentially adverse tax consequences;

  . The repatriation of earnings;

  . The burden of complying with a wide variety of foreign laws;

  . Trade restrictions; and

  . Changes in tariffs.

  In addition, the revenues we earn in various countries in which we do
business may be subject to taxation by more than one jurisdiction, thereby
adversely affecting our earnings. These factors could harm future sales of our
products to international customers and have a material adverse effect on our
business, results of operations and financial condition.

Export restrictions may adversely affect our business.

  Our fibre channel products are subject to U.S. Department of Commerce export
control restrictions. Neither we nor our customers may export such products
without obtaining an export license. These U.S. export laws also prohibit the
export of our fibre channel products to a number of countries deemed by the
United States to be hostile. These restrictions may make foreign competitors
facing less stringent controls on their products more competitive in the
global market than we or our fibre channel customers are. The U.S. government
may not approve any pending or future export license requests. In addition,
the list of products and countries for which export approval is required, and
the regulatory policies with respect thereto, could be revised. The sale of
our fibre channel products could be harmed by our failure or the failure of
our customers to obtain the required licenses or by the costs of compliance.

Our business may be harmed by Year 2000 issues.

  Many existing computer systems and applications use two digits rather than
four to define the applicable year. These programs were designed without
considering the impact of the upcoming change in the century. If such programs
are not corrected, many computer systems could fail or create erroneous
results at or beyond the year 2000. We consider a product to be "Year 2000
compliant" if the product's performance and functionality are unaffected by
the processing of dates prior to, during and after the year 2000. Our current
products are Year 2000 compliant. However, products which we previously sold
and which may still be covered under warranties may not be Year 2000
compliant. We are prepared to update these non-compliant products as required
under Company warranties and as required by law for all Year 2000 issues.
However, we cannot be certain that all potential Year 2000 issues have been
identified or that the issues will be successfully resolved to the customers'
satisfaction. Consequently, customers may bring litigation against vendors,
including us. Any such claims, with or without merit, could result in a
material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial
condition.

  We committed resources to identify and correct potential Year 2000 issues,
both in our products and in our review and tests of our internal computer
systems and applications. We have identified and corrected all of the

                                      14
<PAGE>

Year 2000 compliance issues according to vendor specifications. These reviews,
tests, and corrections have not resulted in substantial expenditures to date.
Furthermore, we do not anticipate any material expenditures in the future
related to these issues. We have completed a survey of our suppliers, contract
manufacturer, significant customers, and financial institutions to evaluate
their Year 2000 compliance plans and state of readiness and to determine
whether any Year 2000 issues will impede the ability of such third parties to
continue providing goods and services to us. We have received satisfactory
responses to these surveys and will continue to monitor the Year 2000 plans of
our suppliers and customers through the coming event. We believe that the most
likely worst-case scenarios related to the Year 2000 issue that we may
experience would be either an inability to obtain inventory components from
suppliers or delays in receiving orders or payments from customers due to Year
2000 problems experienced by these third parties. These events, if
experienced, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of
operations, and financial condition. Therefore, as a contingency plan to
ensure our ability to provide products and services to our customers, we will
take the additional precaution of maintaining a finished goods inventory at
calendar year end sufficient to cover shipments for 30 to 45 days, and will
maintain an additional store of key raw materials for the manufacture of our
products. We have also asked key suppliers to increase their inventory levels
of critical materials and components to act as a further safeguard.

  Although our Year 2000 assessment and remediation processes have not
generated any material expenditures to date, and we do not currently foresee
any in the future, the costs related to this issue would continue to evolve if
we identify and address any additional issues. The Company believes it has
fully addressed all areas of this issue, including internal systems, products
and third parties; however, the Company will continue to monitor these areas.
Although we do not believe that the Year 2000 issue will pose any significant
operational problems, there could be delays in our efforts to address the Year
2000 issue or we could fail to fully identify all Year 2000 issues in our
systems, equipment, or processes, or those of third parties which affect us.
Such delays or failures could have a material adverse effect on our business,
results of operations, and financial condition.

We may need additional capital in the future and such additional financing may
not be available.

  We currently anticipate that our available cash resources and financing
available through our credit facility, will be sufficient to meet our expected
working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12
months. However, we cannot assure you that such resources will be sufficient
for anticipated or unanticipated working capital and capital expenditure
requirements. We may need to raise additional funds through public or private
debt or equity financings in order to:

  . Take advantage of unanticipated opportunities, including more rapid
    international expansion or acquisitions of complementary businesses or
    technologies;

  . Develop new products or services; or

  . Respond to unanticipated competitive pressures.

  We may also raise additional funds through public or private debt or equity
financings if such financings become available on favorable terms. We cannot
assure you that any additional financing we may need will be available on
terms favorable to us, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are
not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of
unanticipated opportunities, develop new products or services or otherwise
respond to unanticipated competitive pressures. In any such case, our
business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially
adversely affected.

Potential acquisitions may be more costly or less profitable than anticipated.

  We may pursue acquisitions that could provide new technologies, products or
service offerings. Future acquisitions may involve the use of significant
amounts of cash, potentially dilutive issuances of equity or equity-linked
securities, incurrence of debt, or amortization expenses related to goodwill
and other intangible assets. In addition, acquisitions involve numerous risks,
including:

  . Difficulties in the assimilation of the operations, technologies,
    products and personnel of the acquired company;

                                      15
<PAGE>

  . The diversion of management's attention from other business concerns;

  . Risks of entering markets in which we have no or limited prior
    experience; and

  . The potential loss of key employees of the acquired company.

  We currently have no commitments or agreements with respect to any such
acquisition. In the event that such an acquisition does occur and we are
unable to successfully integrate businesses, products, technologies or
personnel that we acquire, our business, results of operations and financial
condition could be materially adversely affected.

Our stock price is volatile.

  The stock market in general, and the stock prices in technology-based
companies in particular, have experienced extreme volatility that often has
been unrelated to the operating performance of any specific public companies.
The market price of our common stock has fluctuated in the past and is likely
to fluctuate in the future as well. Any of the following factors could have a
significant impact on the market price of our common stock:

  . Quarterly variations in operating results;

  . Announcements of new products by us or our competitors;

  . The gain or loss of significant customers;

  . Changes in analysts' earnings estimates;

  . Pricing pressures;

  . Short-selling of our common stock;

  . General conditions in the computer, storage or communications markets; or

  . Events affecting other companies that investors deem to be comparable to
    us.

  In the past, companies that have experienced volatility in the market price
of their stock have been the object of securities class action litigation. If
we were the object of securities class action litigation, it could result in
substantial costs and a diversion of management's attention and resources.

We do not plan to pay cash dividends on our common stock.

  We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate
paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We intend to retain
future earnings, if any, to finance the growth and expansion of our business
and for general corporate purposes. In addition, the terms of our credit
facility prohibit us from paying dividends on our capital stock.

Our stockholder rights plan, certificate of incorporation and Delaware law
could adversely affect the performance of our stock.

  Our stockholder rights plan and provisions of our certificate of
incorporation and of the Delaware General Corporation Law could make it more
difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if doing so would be
beneficial to our stockholders. The stockholder rights plan and these
provisions of our certificate of incorporation and Delaware law are intended
to encourage potential acquirers to negotiate with us and allow our board of
directors the opportunity to consider alternative proposals in the interest of
maximizing stockholder value. However, such provisions may also discourage
acquisition proposals or delay or prevent a change in control, which could
harm our stock price. You should read Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements contained elsewhere herein, our certificate of incorporation and
Delaware law for more information on the anti-takeover effects of provisions
of our stockholder rights plan.

Item 2. Properties.

  The Company's corporate offices and principal product development facilities
are currently located in an approximately 55,000 square foot leased building
in Costa Mesa, California. The lease expires in August 2001.

  On October 29, 1998, the Company sold its production facility located in two
adjacent buildings in Dorado, Puerto Rico, as part of the Company's transition
to a contract manufacturer.

  The Company leases approximately nine remote offices, primarily for sales,
throughout the world.

  The Company's future facilities requirements will depend upon the Company's
business, but the Company believes additional space, if required, may be
obtained on reasonable terms.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

  The Company is involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the
ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate
disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the
Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

  The Company is not aware of any pending legal proceedings which could have a
material adverse effect on the financial position or operations of the
Company.

  The Company believes that it is in compliance with all city, state, and
federal rules and regulations as pertaining to environmental impact and use.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

  No matters were submitted to a vote of the security holders of the Company
during the fourth quarter of 1999.

of September 7, 1999 was 311.

Dividends

  The Company has never paid cash dividends on its common stock and does not
anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The Company
currently intends to retain its earnings for the development of its business.

  On August 30, 1999, the Company completed a two-for-one stock split,
effected in the form of a stock dividend of one share of Emulex Common Stock
for each share of common stock outstanding, to stockholders of record on
August 16, 1999.

  At a special meeting of stockholders of the Company held on February 24,
1994, the stockholders voted on a single, unified proposal which in part
provided for the distribution to stockholders, on a share-for-share basis, of
all outstanding shares of common stock of QLogic Corporation. On February 28,
1994, subsequent to stockholders approving the aforementioned proposal, the
Company declared a special distribution to the Company's stockholders of all
the shares of QLogic Corporation effective on the record date, February 25,
1994.

                      EMULEX CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Fiscal 1999 versus Fiscal 1998

  Net Revenues. Net revenues for 1999 were $68,485, an increase of $9,000, or
15 percent, from 1998. Net revenues from the Company's fibre channel product
line in 1999 were $38,693, or 56 percent of net revenues, compared to $18,944,
or 32 percent of net revenues, for 1998. This increase in revenue from the
Company's fibre channel product line of $19,749, or 104 percent, is primarily
the result of continued fibre channel market development and increased market
acceptance of the Company's fibre channel products.

  Net revenues generated from the Company's traditional networking products,
which include printer servers and network access products, decreased by
$10,749, or 27 percent, to $29,792 in 1999 versus $40,541 in 1998. This
decrease in net revenues from the Company's traditional networking products
was principally due to ongoing maturation of these products that resulted in
lower average unit selling prices. Consequently, the Company has decreased its
focus on these products.

  As the market for the Company's traditional networking products matures and
as the Company focuses more of its resources on the fibre channel market,
management expects that fibre channel product sales will represent a larger
percentage of revenues and total sales of the Company's traditional networking
products will continue to decrease. Management anticipates that future
revenues from the Company's fibre channel product line will be a function of
continued demand from original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs, which are
currently shipping fibre channel products, launches of new fibre channel-based
systems by the Company's current OEMs, additional design wins with new OEM
customers and increased sales through other distribution channels as the fibre
channel market continues to develop. Although fibre channel represented 56
percent of the Company's net revenues for 1999, fibre channel is an emerging
technology, and there can be no assurance given that the Company's products
will adequately meet the requirements of the market or achieve market
acceptance. Additionally, because the Company's fibre channel products are
part of an integrated system, the Company's success in the fibre channel
market will depend in part upon the development and availability of other
interoperable fibre channel products by third parties. Furthermore, the
Company's fibre channel products are dependent upon components supplied by
third parties. Management cannot assure you that these components will be
available at a competitive price and in the quantities desired or, if
available, will function as needed.

  In 1999, sales to OEMs increased $8,396, or 20 percent, to $50,832 compared
to $42,436 in 1998. Additionally, distribution net revenues improved by
$1,321, or nine percent, to $16,178 in 1999 compared to $14,857 in 1998. These
increases in net revenues from sales to OEMs and through distribution were
partially offset by a decrease in sales to end users of $717, or 33 percent,
to $1,475 in 1999 compared to $2,192 in 1998.

  In 1999, sales to IBM and Compaq accounted for 19 percent and 14 percent,
respectively, of the Company's net revenues, and no other customer accounted
for more than 10 percent of its net revenues during this period. In 1998,
sales to Sequent Computer Systems and IBM accounted for 12 percent and 11
percent, respectively, of the Company's net revenues, and no other customer
accounted for more than 10 percent of its net revenues during this period.
Furthermore, sales to the Company's top five customers accounted for 54
percent of net revenues in 1999 and 41 percent in 1998.

  Domestic net revenues were $46,751 and $38,773 for 1999 and 1998,
representing 68 percent and 65 percent of total net revenues, respectively.
This increase in domestic revenues of $7,978, or 21 percent, is principally
due to the higher level of fibre channel shipments in 1999 compared to 1998.
International net revenues were $21,734 and $20,712 for 1999 and 1998,
respectively. International revenues increased by $1,022, or five percent,
from 1998 to 1999. The Company's shipments of fibre channel products have
continued to be primarily to the domestic market place; however, the Company
has begun to experience a higher level of fibre channel product shipments to
the international market place. International revenues accounted for 32
percent of net revenues in 1999, down from 35 percent in 1998. As the
Company's net revenues from shipments to the

                                      21
<PAGE>

Pacific Rim countries were less than 10 percent of net revenues in 1999 and
1998, the Company does not believe the Asian crisis poses a significant risk
to the Company.

  Gross Profit. Cost of sales includes the cost of production of finished
products, as well as support costs and other expenses related to inventory
management, manufacturing quality and order fulfillment. Gross profit in 1999
was $27,043, an increase of $7,785, or 40 percent, compared to $19,258 in
1998. Gross margin increased to 39 percent in 1999 from 32 percent in 1998. In
conjunction with the planned closure of the Company's Puerto Rico
manufacturing operations and transition to subcontracted manufacturing
(discussed below in Consolidation Charges), during 1998, the Company recorded
$5,314 of inventory charges related to consolidation which consisted of $1,899
of incremental excess and obsolete inventory reserves related to ongoing
product life-cycle transitions and $3,415 for reductions in inventory related
to the streamlining of the Company's product lines. Excluding these
incremental cost of sales charges, gross profit would have been $24,572 and
gross margin would have been 41 percent for 1998. Also in conjunction with the
closure of the Company's Puerto Rico manufacturing operations, in 1999 the
Company recorded additional reductions in inventory related to the
streamlining of its product lines of $1,304. When the initial consolidation
charge was taken, management believed this inventory would be sold at positive
margins. However, as the Company neared the closure of the manufacturing
facility, management determined this inventory was no longer saleable and
these additional reductions in inventory were recorded. Excluding this charge,
gross profit would have been $28,347 and gross margin would have been 41
percent for 1999.

  During 1998, and continuing through 1999, the Company has experienced
declining average unit selling prices and corresponding reductions in the
gross margins of its traditional networking products. Management expects this
trend to continue. Gross margins on the Company's traditional networking
products are lower than gross margins for its fibre channel products.
Management expects that average unit selling prices for the Company's fibre
channel products will also decline over time. The Company has agreed to
contracted price reductions with most of its fibre channel OEM customers.
Typically these reductions are achieved by reaching volume milestones during
the life of the contract. In 1999, some of the Company's OEM customers met
these milestones. It is likely that the Company will continue this practice in
the future. In addition, the Company's gross margins of fibre channel products
may be impacted if there is a significant shift in the mix of its products
from adapters to hubs or from high-end adapters to lower-priced adapters. The
Company's strategy is to maintain overall gross margins where possible,
despite expected future erosion in the average unit selling price, by
continuing to reduce the cost of its fibre channel products through a
combination of volume efficiencies, cost-reduced designs and diversification
of its component-supplier base.

  Engineering and Development. Engineering and development expenses consist
primarily of salaries and related expenses for personnel engaged in the
design, development and technical support of the Company's products. These
expenses include third-party fees paid to consultants, prototype development
expenses and computer services costs related to supporting computer tools used
in the design process. Engineering and development expenses were $11,766 and
$11,270 for 1999 and 1998, representing 17 percent and 19 percent of net
revenues, respectively. Engineering and development expenses increased $496,
or four percent, from 1998 to 1999. Because of the technical nature of the
Company's products, engineering support is a critical part of the Company's
strategy during both the development of its products and the support of its
customers from product design through deployment into the market. Management
expects to continue to make significant investments in the technical support
and enhancement of the Company's current products, as well as the continued
development of new products in the fibre channel market. Engineering and
development expenses can fluctuate from quarter to quarter depending on
several factors, including new product introduction schedules.

  Selling and Marketing. Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of
salaries, commissions and related expenses for personnel engaged in the
marketing and sales of the Company's products, as well as trade shows, product
literature and promotional support costs. Selling and marketing expenses were
$6,953 and $7,589 for 1999 and 1998, representing 10 percent and 13 percent of
net revenues, respectively. Selling and marketing expenses decreased by $636,
or eight percent, from 1998 to 1999. This decrease was a result of the
streamlining

                                      22
<PAGE>

of the Company's products which enabled the Company to reduce sales and
marketing efforts for its traditional networking products.

  General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses consist
primarily of salaries and related expenses for executives, financial
accounting support, human resources, administrative services, professional
fees and other associated corporate expenses. General and administrative
expenses were $4,279 and $4,207 for 1999 and 1998, representing six percent
and seven percent of net revenues, respectively. General and administrative
expenses increased slightly by $72, or two percent, in 1999 compared to 1998.

  Consolidation Charges. During the three month period ended March 29, 1998,
the Company initiated a program to outsource the manufacturing of all of its
product lines to K*TEC Electronics. The Company made this strategic decision
in an attempt to reduce required future capital expenditures and production
costs, as well as to take advantage of K*TEC Electronics' consolidated
purchasing power and materials management capabilities. In conjunction with
this transition to subcontracted manufacturing, the Company closed its Puerto
Rico manufacturing facility and selected sales offices. In addition to the
$5,314 of inventory charges related to consolidation discussed above, the
Company recorded consolidation charges of $7,231 related to these closures in
1998.

  During 1999, the Company completed the sale of the land and buildings at its
former manufacturing facility in Puerto Rico which resulted in a gain of $777.
No impairment had previously been recognized related to the land and
buildings. Also, during 1999, the Company substantially completed this
consolidation plan, including all remaining headcount reductions, and the
Company reduced its accrued consolidation charges by $210 based on
management's review of the adequacy of the remaining consolidation accrual.

  Nonoperating Income. Nonoperating income consists primarily of interest
income, interest expense and foreign exchange translation. The Company's
nonoperating income was $480 and $113 in 1999 and 1998, respectively. Normal
fluctuations in nonoperating income are primarily due to changes in interest
income and expense as a result of varying cash balances. The Company completed
a secondary offering of 4,630,000 shares of its common stock during the
quarter ended June 27, 1999. The Company received proceeds of $132,838, net of
underwriter's discount and expenses. This improvement in the Company's cash
and investment balances late in the fiscal year generated the increased level
of interest income experienced in 1999.

  Income Taxes. The Company's income tax expense for 1999 was $247,
representing a tax provision of approximately 4.5 percent of income before
taxes. The Company's low effective tax rate is primarily due to utilization in
1999 of net operating loss carryforwards which were held net of a substantial
valuation allowance. After these net operating loss carryforwards are
utilized, and the corresponding valuation allowance is eliminated, management
believes the Company will have an effective tax rate of approximately 35
percent assuming current enacted tax rates and current operating structure. In
addition, under current generally accepted accounting principles and in
accordance with the Company's policy, the Company could be required to reduce
some or all of its valuation allowance prior to actual utilization of the net
operating losses, which would result in the recognition of a significant
immediate tax benefit for financial statement purposes and the expected
effective tax rate of approximately 35 percent on an ongoing basis. However,
there can be no assurance that the Company will ultimately generate adequate
taxable income to utilize any or all of its existing net operating loss
carryforwards or if utilized, that the actual effective tax rate on an ongoing
basis would approximate 35 percent. The Company recorded a benefit from income
taxes of $88 in 1998. During 1999, the Company received a favorable response
to the Ruling Request submitted to the Secretary of the Treasury of Puerto
Rico. The liquidation of the Company's subsidiary, Emulex Caribe, during 1998
was structured to qualify for tax-free liquidation treatment under the
provisions of both the U.S. and Puerto Rico Internal Revenue Codes. Through
its response to the Ruling Request, the Secretary of the Treasury of Puerto
Rico has agreed that neither Emulex Corporation nor Emulex Caribe will
recognize a gain or loss as a result of the liquidation. The Company also
received approval of the Closing Agreement submitted to the Secretary of the
Treasury of Puerto Rico. The Secretary agreed to the Company's calculation of
the amount of tollgate tax resulting from the deemed distribution from Emulex
Caribe to the Company as a result of the liquidation.

                                      23
<PAGE>

  The Company is currently undergoing an examination by the California
Franchise Tax Board of the Company's California income tax returns for years
1989, 1990 and 1991. Additionally, Emulex Caribe, the Company's former
subsidiary, is undergoing examination by the Internal Revenue Service of its
1995 tax return. In the opinion of management, these examinations will not
have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial
position, results of operations or liquidity.

Fiscal 1998 versus Fiscal 1997

  Net Revenues. Net revenues for 1998 were $59,485, a decrease of $5,278, or
eight percent, from $64,763 in 1997. This decrease in net revenues was
principally the result of reductions in distribution net revenues of $5,294,
or 26 percent, and decreases in net revenues from sales to end users of $939,
or 30 percent, in 1998 compared to 1997. These decreases were partially offset
by an increase in 1998 in net revenues from sales to OEMs of $955, or two
percent, compared to 1997.

  Net revenues from the Company's fibre channel product line increased by
$7,423, or 64 percent, to $18,944 for 1998 compared to $11,521 in 1997 as OEMs
in this emerging market have begun to take volume shipments. The Company
expects that future revenue from this product line will be a function of
continued demand from OEMs which are currently shipping fibre channel product,
launches of new fibre channel based systems by some of the Company's other
OEMs, achievement of additional design wins and increased distribution sales.

  Net revenues generated from the Company's traditional networking products,
which include printer servers and network access products, decreased by
$12,701, or 24 percent, to $40,541 in 1998 versus the prior fiscal year. This
decrease in traditional networking revenues is primarily the result of lower
printer server distribution sales which the Company believes are principally
due to decreased demand for after-market solutions, as more OEMs are shipping
network-ready printers. In addition, the Company experienced a decrease in net
revenues from its maturing network access products principally as a result of
lower shipments to Reuters, as its current project with Emulex approached end
of life.

  In 1998, sales to Sequent Computer Systems and IBM accounted for 12 and 11
percent, respectively, of the Company's net revenues, and no other customer
accounted for more than 10 percent of its net revenues during this period. In
1997, sales to Reuters and Sequent Computer Systems accounted for 13 percent
and 10 percent, respectively, of the Company's net revenues, and no other
customer accounted for more than 10 percent of its net revenues during this
period. Furthermore, sales to the Company's top five customers accounted for
41 percent of net revenues in 1998 and 44 percent in 1997.

  Domestic revenue increased by $3,340, or nine percent, to $38,773 in 1998
compared to $35,433 in 1997. This increase in domestic revenues is principally
due to the higher level of fibre channel shipments in 1998 which have been
primarily to the domestic market place to date. International revenues
decreased by $8,618, or 29 percent, from $29,330 in 1997 to $20,712 in 1998
principally due to the decreased shipments to Reuters as discussed above.
International revenues accounted for 35 percent of net revenues in 1998, down
from 45 percent in 1997. As the Company's net revenues from shipments to the
Pacific Rim countries were less than 10 percent of net revenues in 1998 and
1997, the Company does not believe the Asian crisis poses a significant risk
to the Company.

  Gross Profit. Cost of sales includes the cost of production of finished
products, as well as support costs and other expenses related to inventory
management, manufacturing quality and order fulfillment. Gross profit
decreased by $5,300, or 22 percent, to $19,258 in 1998 compared to 1997. Gross
margin also decreased from the prior year at 32 percent in 1998 from 38
percent in 1997. In conjunction with the planned closure of the Company's
Puerto Rico manufacturing operations and transition to subcontracted
manufacturing (discussed below in Consolidation Charges), during 1998, the
Company recorded $5,314 of inventory charges related to consolidation,
including $1,899 of incremental excess and obsolete inventory reserves related
to ongoing product life-cycle transitions and $3,415 for reductions in
inventory related to the streamlining of the Company's product lines.
Excluding these inventory charges related to consolidation, gross profit for
1998 would have been $24,572,

                                      24
<PAGE>

an increase of $14 compared to 1997. Gross margin in 1998, excluding these
inventory charges related to consolidation, improved to 41 percent. The
improvement in gross margin is principally due to a product mix that contained
a greater percentage of higher margin products.

  Engineering and Development. Engineering and development expenses consist
primarily of salaries and related expenses for personnel engaged in the
design, development and technical support of the Company's products. These
expenses include third-party fees paid to consultants, prototype development
expenses and computer services costs related to supporting computer tools used
in the design process. Engineering and development expenses were $11,270 and
$10,063 for 1998 and 1997, representing 19 percent and 16 percent of net
revenues, respectively. This increase in engineering and development expenses
of $1,207, or 12 percent, from 1997 to 1998 reflected the Company's increasing
investment in fibre channel development that was partially offset by declining
expenditures related to its traditional networking product development.

  Selling and Marketing. Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of
salaries, commissions and related expenses for personnel engaged in the
marketing and sales of the Company's products, as well as trade shows, product
literature and promotional support costs. Selling and marketing expenses were
$7,589 and $7,637 for 1998 and 1997, representing 13 percent and 12 percent of
net revenues, respectively. Selling and marketing expenses remained relatively
unchanged from 1997 to 1998.

  General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses consist
primarily of salaries and related expenses for executives, financial
accounting support, human resources, administrative services, professional
fees and other associated corporate expenses. General and administrative
expenses were $4,207 and $4,586 for 1998 and 1997, respectively, representing
seven percent of net revenues for both years. This decrease in general and
administrative expenses of $379, or eight percent, resulted from the Company's
ongoing streamlining of its general and administrative activities.

  Consolidation Charges. During the three month period ended March 29, 1998,
the Company initiated a program to outsource the manufacturing of all of its
product lines to K*TEC Electronics, a state-of-the-art contract manufacturer
with advanced manufacturing capabilities which the Company requires for its
new generation fibre channel designs. The Company made this strategic decision
in an attempt to reduce required future capital expenditures and production
costs, as well as to take advantage of K*TEC Electronics' consolidated
purchasing power and materials management capabilities. In conjunction with
this transition to subcontracted manufacturing, the Company planned to close
its Puerto Rico manufacturing facility and selected domestic sales offices. In
addition to the $5,314 of inventory charges related to consolidation discussed
above, the Company has recorded consolidation charges of $7,231 related to
these closures in 1998. These charges include approximately $3,010 for
severance and related costs, $1,022 for impairment of certain property, plant
and equipment, $1,360 for reductions in prepaid royalties and other expenses,
$631 for payroll and related costs for Puerto Rico employees and other
directly-related costs to complete the closure of the facility after
operations had ceased, $325 for legal, tax and accounting advice directly
related to the closure of the Puerto Rico facility, $658 of directly-related
costs incurred primarily at the corporate level to facilitate the closure of
the Puerto Rico facility (travel, labor, and other outside services), and $225
for equipment and offices leases. In addition, the Company planned to sell
other property, plant and equipment in 1999. The Company anticipated a total
worldwide reduction of approximately 130 full-time employees, or 48 percent of
the workforce, and 45 temporary workers in Puerto Rico. The majority of the
headcount reductions were in the manufacturing area; however, selected
reductions were also made in other areas related to the streamlining of
product offerings. During 1999, the Company substantially completed this
consolidation plan.

  During the first quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company initiated a
consolidation of its operations to reduce its ongoing expense base and focus
its activities on the Company's fibre channel and traditional networking
markets, which include printer server and wide area networking products.
Emulex's remote access and host software business, previously headquartered
out of a Bellevue, Washington facility, was relocated to Emulex's headquarters
in Costa Mesa, California. In addition, the Company downsized its Pacific Rim
sales organization and also made selected reductions at its manufacturing
plant in Dorado, Puerto Rico and at it corporate

                                      25
<PAGE>

headquarters. The Company recognized consolidation charges of $1,280 in 1997.
The charges related to this consolidation of operations consisted of
approximately $806 for severance and related charges, $236 for office rent and
related charges, $65 for write-off of fixed assets and $173 of other charges
relating primarily to the transition of product support to Costa Mesa,
California. Total headcount worldwide was reduced by approximately 36
employees. As of June 29, 1997, this consolidation plan was substantially
complete.

  Nonoperating Income. Nonoperating income consists primarily of interest
income, interest expense and foreign exchange translation. The Company's
nonoperating income was $113 and $71 in 1998 and 1997, respectively. Normal
fluctuations in nonoperating income are primarily due to changes in interest
income and expense as a result of varying cash balances. Additionally,
nonoperating income in 1997 included nonrecurring interest income of $238
associated with prior years' tax returns.

  Income Taxes. The Company recorded a tax benefit of $88 in 1998 compared to
a benefit of $506 in 1997. The benefit in 1998 included a $188 tax recovery
from a tax sharing agreement with QLogic Corporation, a former subsidiary of
the Company, compared to a $612 tax recovery, also related to the tax sharing
agreement, in 1997.

Year 2000

  Many existing computer systems and applications use two digits rather than
four to define the applicable year. These programs were designed without
considering the impact of the upcoming change in the century. If such programs
are not corrected, many computer systems could fail or create erroneous
results at or beyond the year 2000. We consider a product to be "Year 2000
compliant" if the product's performance and functionality are unaffected by
the processing of dates prior to, during and after the year 2000. The Company
has considered the impact of Year 2000 issues on our products, computer
systems, and applications. All of our current products are Year 2000
compliant; however, some products previously sold by the Company may not be
Year 2000 compliant. The Company is prepared to update these non-compliant
products as required under Company warranties and as required by law for all
Year 2000 issues. Furthermore, the Company believes that the related financial
exposure for any required updates to non-compliant products is not material.
Additionally, the Company has reviewed and tested its internal computer
systems and applications. The Company has identified and corrected all of the
Year 2000 compliance issues according to vendor specifications. These reviews,
tests, and corrections have not resulted in substantial expenditures to date.
Furthermore, the Company does not anticipate any material expenditures in the
future related to these issues; however, if any additional Year 2000 issues
are identified, the related costs would continue to evolve. The Company has
completed a survey of its suppliers, contract manufacturer, significant
customers, and financial institutions to evaluate their Year 2000 compliance
plans and state of readiness and to determine whether any Year 2000 issues
will impede the ability of such third parties to continue conducting business
with the Company. The Company has received satisfactory responses to these
surveys and will continue to monitor the Year 2000 plans of our suppliers and
customers through the coming event. The Company believes that the most likely
worst-case scenarios related to the Year 2000 issue that it may experience
would be either an inability to obtain inventory components from suppliers or
delays in receiving orders or payments from customers due to Year 2000
problems experienced by these third parties. These events, if experienced,
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of
operations, and financial condition. Therefore, as a contingency plan to
ensure the Company's ability to provide products and services to its
customers, the Company will take the additional precaution of maintaining a
finished goods inventory at calendar year end sufficient to cover shipments
for 30 to 45 days, and will maintain an additional store of key raw materials
for the manufacture of its products. The Company has also asked key suppliers
to increase their inventory levels of critical materials and components to act
as a further safeguard. The Company believes it has fully addressed all areas
of this issue, including internal systems, products and third parties;
however, the Company will continue to monitor these areas.

New Accounting Standards

  In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. ("Statement") 133, "Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." This new statement
requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or
liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those
instruments at fair value. It further provides criteria for derivative
instruments to be designated as fair value, cash flow and foreign currency
hedges, and establishes respective accounting standards for reporting changes
in the fair value of the instruments. This statement, as amended, is effective
for both interim and annual periods for fiscal years beginning after June 15,
2000. The Company does not expect the adoption of Statement 133 to have a
material impact on its results of operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

  The Company's cash and cash equivalents increased by $20,508 during 1999 to
$22,284. Operating activities, which include changes in working capital
balances, provided $1,896 of cash and cash equivalents in 1999 compared to
providing $3,116 of cash and cash equivalents in the prior year. Investing
activities, which included purchases of investments of $115,380, as well as
the acquisition and disposition of property, plant and equipment, used
$114,334 of cash and cash equivalents in the current year compared to using
$1,871 in 1998. Net financing activities, which included net proceeds from a
secondary offering of common stock of $132,838, as well as payments under
capital lease obligations and proceeds from the exercise of employee stock
options, provided $132,946 of cash and cash equivalents during 1999 compared
to providing $47 of cash and cash equivalents in 1998.

  In addition to its cash, cash equivalent and investment balances, the
Company has a line of credit of up to $10,000 with Silicon Valley Bank. The
agreement allows the Company to borrow at the bank's prime rate (7.75 percent
at June 27, 1999) plus one half percent. The Company last utilized the line of
credit in the first quarter of 1998. Furthermore, there were no borrowings
outstanding under this line at June 27, 1999 or June 28, 1998. The line of
credit with Silicon Valley Bank requires the Company to satisfy certain
financial and other covenants and conditions, including prescribed levels of
tangible net worth, profitability and liquidity. In the event the Company
fails to comply with any financial or other covenant in its loan agreement
with Silicon Valley Bank, the line of credit could become unavailable to the
Company. In addition, after borrowings have been made under the line of
credit, a failure to continue to satisfy such covenants would constitute an
event of default, giving rise to the various remedies available to a lender.
As of June 27, 1999, the Company was in compliance with all the covenants of
the line of credit; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will
continue to satisfy the financial and other covenants and conditions of the
line of credit or that the line of credit will continue to be available to the
Company. The Company's line of credit with Silicon Valley Bank, which is
renewed periodically in the normal course of business, is scheduled to expire
in January 2000.

  In the quarter ended June 27, 1999, the Company completed a secondary
offering of 4,630,000 shares of the Company's common stock of a price of
$30.50 per share. The Company received proceeds of $132,838 net of
underwriter's discounts and expenses. As of June 27, 1999, the Company had
investments of $115,380 resulting primarily from the net proceeds of this
offering. The remaining proceeds are included in the Company's cash and cash
equivalents.

  The Company believes that its existing cash and investment balances,
facilities and equipment leases, anticipated cash flows from operating
activities and available borrowings under its line of credit will be
sufficient to support its working capital needs and capital expenditure
requirements for the next twelve months.

Item 7a. Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

  At June 27, 1999, the Company's investment portfolio consisted of fixed
income securities, excluding those classified as cash equivalents, of $115,380
(see Note 2 of the Consolidated Financial Statements). The Company has the
positive intent and ability to hold these securities to maturity. Currently,
the carrying amount of these securities approximates fair market value.
However, the fair market value of these securities is subject to interest rate
risk and would decline in value if market interest rates increased. If market
interest rates were to increase immediately and uniformly by 10 percent from
the levels existing as of June 27, 1999, the decline in the fair value of the
portfolio would not be material to the Company's financial position, results
of operations and cash flows.

                         INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Board of Directors
Emulex Corporation:

  We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Emulex Corporation
and subsidiaries as listed in the accompanying index. In connection with our
audits of the consolidated financial statements, we have also audited the
financial statement schedule as listed in the accompanying index. These
consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and financial statement
schedule based on our audits.

  We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

  In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Emulex
Corporation and subsidiaries as of June 27, 1999 and June 28, 1998 and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the
three-year period ended June 27, 1999, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement
schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial
statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the
information set forth therein.

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

            (dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 Principles of Consolidation

  The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Emulex
Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries
(collectively, the "Company" or "Emulex"). All significant intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 Fiscal Year

  The Company's fiscal year ends on the Sunday nearest June 30. Fiscal years
1999, 1998 and 1997 each comprised 52 weeks.

 Reclassifications

  Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1998 and 1997 consolidated
financial statements to conform to the 1999 presentation.

 Common Stock Split

  On August 30, 1999, the Company completed a two-for-one stock split,
effected in the form of a stock dividend of one share of Emulex Common Stock
for each share of common stock outstanding to stockholders of record on August
16, 1999. All share, per share and related data presented in the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes has been retroactively adjusted to reflect
this stock split. As the par value of the Company's common stock remained at
$0.20 per share, all periods presented reflect a reclass from additional paid-
in capital to common stock.

 Consolidation Charges

  Fiscal 1998 and 1999

  On March 25, 1998, the Company announced plans to outsource the
manufacturing of its product lines to K*TEC Electronics, a division of Kent
Electronics Corporation. The Company made this strategic decision in an
attempt to reduce required future capital expenditures and production costs,
as well as to take advantage of K*TEC Electronics' consolidated purchasing
power and materials management capabilities. This decision resulted in, among
other things, the closing of the Company's Puerto Rico manufacturing
subsidiary, streamlining the Company's product offerings of some of its more
mature, lower volume products (primarily in the Company's network access
products), and closing selected sales offices. In conjunction with this
decision, during fiscal year 1998, the Company recorded consolidation charges
of $7,231 and inventory charges related to consolidation of $5,314 for
incremental inventory reserves related to ongoing product life-cycle
transitions and the streamlining of the Company's product offerings. The
$7,231 of consolidation charges included approximately $3,010 for severance
and related costs, $1,022 for impairment of certain property, plant and
equipment, $1,360 primarily due to reductions in prepaid royalties and other
expenses, $225 for equipment and office leases, $631 for payroll and related
costs for Puerto Rico employees and other directly-related costs to complete
the closure of the facility after operations had ceased, $325 for legal, tax
and accounting advice directly related to the closure of the Puerto Rico
facility and $658 of directly-related costs incurred primarily at the
corporate level to facilitate the closure of the Puerto Rico facility (travel,
labor, and other outside services). The Company anticipated a worldwide
reduction of approximately 130 full-time employees, or 48 percent of the
workforce, and 45 temporary workers in Puerto Rico. The majority of the
headcount reduction were in the manufacturing area; however, selected
reductions were also made in other areas related to the streamlining of
product offerings.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
                June 27, 1999, June 28, 1998 and June 29, 1997
            (dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

  The $1,022 impairment to property, plant and equipment reflected the assets
to be disposed of at fair value less costs to sell, based on a combination of
management judgement and outside appraisal. Included in property, plant and
equipment at March 29, 1998 was $2,347 of assets to be disposed of. At June
28, 1998, the Company had ceased operations at the Puerto Rico facility.
Through that time, these assets continued to be depreciated. At June 28, 1998,
the remaining assets related to the restructuring consisted of land, buildings
and improvements of $1,683, production and test equipment of $588 and
furniture and fixtures of $55. After these assets were taken from use, the
assets were promptly disposed of, except for the production equipment and the
building and land which were held for sale. During the limited time these
assets were held for sale, no depreciation was recognized because their
carrying value was at fair value less costs to sell. The production equipment
was sold in September 1998. The land and buildings were sold in October 1998.

  As of June 28, 1998, actions to complete this consolidation plan were still
in process. The remaining consolidation accrual as of June 28, 1998 of $3,173
consisted of approximately $1,661 for severance and related costs, $155 for
equipment and office leases, $631 for payroll and related costs for Puerto
Rico employees and other directly-related costs to complete the closure of the
facility after operations had ceased, and other costs substantially incurred
by June 28, 1998 including $249 for legal, tax and accounting advice directly
related to the closure of Puerto Rico facility, and $477 for directly-related
costs incurred primarily at the corporate level to facilitate the closure of
the Puerto Rico facility (travel, labor, and other outside services). At June
28, 1998, the Company's work force still included 45 of the 130 employees
discussed above.

  During the quarter ended December 27, 1998, the Company sold the land and
buildings at its former manufacturing facility in Puerto Rico for net proceeds
of $2,447, which resulted in a gain of $777. No impairment had previously been
recognized related to the land and buildings. Additionally, as the Company
essentially completed this consolidation plan including all remaining
headcount reductions, the Company recognized additional inventory charges
related to consolidation of $1,304 related to the streamlining of the
Company's products and a reduction in other accrued consolidation charges of
$210 recorded in operating expenses in 1999. When the initial consolidation
charge was taken, management of the Company believed this inventory would be
sold at positive margins. However, as the Company neared the closure of the
manufacturing facility, it determined this inventory was no longer saleable
and these additional reductions in inventory were recorded. As of June 27,
1999, this consolidation plan was substantially complete, and the remaining
consolidation accrual of $195 is primarily for remaining severance and related
payments to be made over the next four months.

 Fiscal 1997

  During the first quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company initiated a
consolidation of its operations to reduce its ongoing expense base and focus
its activities on the Company's fibre channel and traditional networking
markets, which include printer server and wide area networking products.
Emulex's remote access and host software business, previously headquarted out
of a Bellevue, Washington facility, was relocated to Emulex headquarters in
Costa Mesa, California. In addition, the Company downsized its Pacific Rim
sales organization and also made selected reductions at its manufacturing
plant in Dorado, Puerto Rico and at its corporate headquarters. The Company
recognized consolidation charges of $1,280 in fiscal 1997.

  The charges related to this consolidation of operations consisted of
approximately $806 for severance and related charges, $236 for office rent and
related charges, $65 for write-off of fixed assets and $173 of other charges
relating primarily to the transition of product support to Costa Mesa,
California. Total headcount worldwide was reduced by approximately 36
employees. As of June 29, 1997, this consolidation plan was substantially
complete.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
                June 27, 1999, June 28, 1998 and June 29, 1997
            (dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

 Foreign Currency Translation

  The Company has designated the U.S. dollar as its functional currency.
Accordingly, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies
are remeasured into the U.S. dollar at the exchange rates in effect at the
balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are remeasured into the U.S. dollar at the appropriate historical
exchange rates. Income and expense amounts denominated in foreign currencies
are remeasured into the U.S. dollar at the average exchange rates during the
period, except for expense items related to non-monetary accounts, which are
remeasured at the appropriate historical exchange rates. Net foreign exchange
gains and losses are included in other nonoperating income in the period
incurred (see note 12).

 Cash Equivalents

  All highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months
or less are considered to be cash equivalents.

 Investments

  The Company determines the appropriate balance sheet classification of its
investments in debt securities based on maturity date at the time of purchase
and evaluates the classifications at each balance sheet date. Debt securities
are classified as held to maturity as the Company has the positive intent and
ability to hold the securities to maturity. Held to maturity securities are
stated at amortized cost. The amortized cost of debt securities is adjusted
for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity value.
Such amortization and interest are included in interest income. The Company's
investments in debt securities are diversified among high credit quality
securities in accordance with the Company's investment policy.

 Inventories

  Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or net
realizable value.

 Property, Plant and Equipment

  Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, and depreciation and
amortization are provided on the straight-line method over estimated useful
lives of two to ten years.

 Long-Lived Assets

  The Company applies the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. ("Statement") 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." Under the provisions of
Statement 121, the recoverability of long-lived assets is assessed by
determining whether the carrying value of the asset can be recovered through
projected undiscounted future operating cash flows over its remaining life.
The amount of impairment, if any, is measured based on projected discounted
future operating cash flows. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the
lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

 Intangible Assets

  Capitalized software development costs can consist of costs to purchase
software to be used within the Company's products and costs to develop
software internally. Capitalization of purchased software occurs only

                                      39

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
                June 27, 1999, June 28, 1998 and June 29, 1997
            (dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)
if technological feasibility has been established through completion of
product design, working model and testing. The establishment of technological
feasibility and the ongoing assessment of recoverability of capitalized
software development costs require judgment by management with respect to
certain external factors, including but not limited to, anticipated future
gross revenue, estimated economic life and changes in software and hardware
technologies. Purchased software costs of $300 were capitalized in 1998. No
purchased software costs were capitalized in 1999 or 1997. No internally-
developed software costs were capitalized in 1999, 1998 or 1997. As a result
of an announcement made by a competitor during the quarter ended June 17,
1999, the Company has altered some developmental plans which rendered $125 of
capitalized purchase software costs unusable. Consequently, the Company
recognized impairment of $125 in cost of sales during the quarter ended June
27, 1999. As of June 27, 1999, the unamortized cost of capitalized purchased
software included in other assets was $175. These intangible assets will be
amortized over their estimated useful lives.

  Further, Statement 86, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be
Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed," requires that at each balance sheet date
the unamortized costs of a computer software product be compared to the net
realizable value of that product. The amount by which the unamortized costs
exceed the net realizable value of a product is to be written off.

 Revenue Recognition

  The Company recognizes revenue at the time of shipment. The Company has
agreements with certain of its distributors and Master Value Added Resellers
("VARs") to provide price protection and stock rotation privileges with
respect to inventories which the distributors may have on hand when the
Company's published list prices are reduced and/or when items are slow moving.
These agreements may be terminated upon written notice by either party.
Pursuant to the Company's contractual obligations under these agreements, or
in the event of termination, the Company may be obligated to issue credits to
provide price protection and/or to repurchase a certain portion of a
distributor's or VAR's inventory. The Company records a reserve for estimated
price protection and inventory repurchase when the related revenue is
recognized. The Company provides a warranty of between two and five years on
all products and provides a reserve for warranty costs at the time of shipment
based on actual historic experience.

 Net Income (Loss) per Share

  Effective December 28, 1997, the Company adopted Statement 128, "Earnings
per Share." All prior periods have been restated accordingly (see note 10).
Statement 128 specifies new standards designed to improve the earnings per
share ("EPS") information provided in financial statements by simplifying the
existing computational guidelines, revising the disclosure requirements and
increasing the comparability of EPS data on an international basis. Some of
the changes made to simplify the EPS computations include: (a) eliminating the
presentation of primary EPS and replacing it with basic EPS, with the
principal difference being that the common stock equivalents are not
considered in computing basic EPS, (b) eliminating the modified treasury stock
method and the three percent materiality provision, and (c) revising the
contingent share provisions and the supplemental EPS data requirements.
Statement 128 also makes a number of changes to existing disclosure
requirements. The adoption of Statement 128 did not have a material impact on
the Company's consolidated financial statements.

 Accounting for Stock Options

  Prior to July 1, 1996, the Company accounted for its stock option plan in
accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion
No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and

                                      40

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
                June 27, 1999, June 28, 1998 and June 29, 1997
            (dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)
related interpretations. As such, compensation expense would be recorded on
the date of grant only if the current market price of the underlying stock
exceeded the exercise price. On July 1, 1996, the Company adopted Statement
123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," which permits entities to
recognize as expense over the vesting period the fair value of all stock-based
awards on the date of grant. Alternatively, Statement 123 also allows entities
to continue to apply the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and provide pro
forma net income and pro forma net income per share disclosures for employee
stock option grants made in fiscal 1996 and future years as if the fair-value-
based method defined in Statement 123 had been applied. The Company has
elected to continue to apply the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and provide
the pro forma disclosure provisions of Statement 123 (see note 9).

 Fair Value of Financial Instruments

  The Company applies the provisions of Statement 107, "Disclosures about Fair
Value of Financial Instruments." Statement 107 requires all entities to
disclose the fair value of financial instruments, both assets and liabilities
recognized and not recognized on the balance sheet, for which it is
practicable to estimate fair value. Statement 107 defines fair value of a
financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged
in a current transaction between willing parties. As of June 27, 1999, and
June 28, 1998, management believes the fair value of all financial instruments
approximated carrying value.

 Concentration of Credit Risk

  The Company sells its products to original equipment manufactures and
distributors throughout the world; however, sales in the United States and
Europe currently account for 95 percent of the Company's net revenues, and the
Company expects for the foreseeable future will account for the substantial
majority of the Company's revenues. Sales to customers are denominated in U.S.
dollars. Consequently, the Company believes its foreign currency risk in
minimal. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers'
financial condition and, generally requires no collateral from its customers.
The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts. Historically, the
Company has not experienced significant losses on accounts receivable.

 Use of Estimates

  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make a number of
estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities.
Actual results could differ from these estimates.

 Research and Development

  Research and development costs, including costs related to the development
of new products and process technology, are expensed as incurred.

 Income Taxes

  The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to Statement 109, "Accounting
for Income Taxes." Statement 109 uses the asset and liability method of
accounting for income taxes, which recognizes deferred tax assets and
liabilities for the future tax consequences attributable to differences
between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and
liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable
income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be
recovered or settled. Under Statement 109, the effect on deferred tax assets
and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period
that includes the enactment date.

            (dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

 Comprehensive Income

  As of June 29, 1998, the Company adopted Statement 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income." Statement 130 establishes new rules for reporting and
displaying of comprehensive income and its components; however, the adoption
of Statement 130 had no impact on the Company's consolidated financial
statements as of the Company had no transactions that would be considered
other comprehensive income.

 Segment Information

  In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information." Statement 131 supersedes Statement 14, "Financial Reporting for
Segments of a Business Enterprise," replacing the "industry segment" approach
with the "management" approach. The management approach is based on the method
by which management organizes its operating segments within the enterprise.
Operating segments, as defined by Statement 131, are components of an
enterprise for which separate financial information is available and is
evaluated regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker in deciding how to
allocate resources and in assessing performance. Statement 131 also requires
disclosures about products and services, geographic areas, and major
customers. The Company operates in one operating segment, networking products,
for purposes of Statement 131.

Note 6 Employee Retirement Savings Plan

  The Company has a pretax savings and profit sharing plan under Section
401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code for substantially all domestic employees.
Under the plan, eligible employees are able to contribute up to 15 percent of
their compensation not to exceed the maximum IRS deferral amount. Company
discretionary contributions match up to 3 percent of a participant's
compensation. The Company's contributions under this plan were $287, $270 and
$271 in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

  The Company had a similar plan for all employees in the Company's Puerto
Rico facility under Section 165(e) of the Internal Revenue Code. This plan was
terminated as a part of the Company's closure of its Puerto Rico manufacturing
subsidiary completed during 1999. Under this plan, eligible employees were
able to contribute up to 10 percent of their compensation not to exceed the
maximum IRS deferral amount. Company discretionary contributions matched up to
3 percent of a participant's compensation. The Company's contributions under
this plan were $25, $116 and $86 for 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

Note 7 Line of Credit

  The Company has a $10,000 bank line of credit with Silicon Valley Bank which
expires in January 2000. The agreement allows the Company to borrow at the
bank's prime rate (7.75 percent at June 27, 1999) plus one half percent.
During 1998, but not 1999, the Company utilized this line of credit. However,
there were no borrowings outstanding under this line at June 28, 1998. The
bank line of credit requires the Company to satisfy certain financial and
other covenants and conditions, including prescribed levels of tangible net
worth, profitability and liquidity, and prohibits, among other things, the
payment of cash dividends. At June 27, 1999, the Company was in compliance
with all such covenants.

 Litigation

  The Company is involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the
ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate
disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the
Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Note 9 Stockholders' Equity

 Common Stock Split

  On August 30, 1999, the Company completed a two-for-one stock split,
effected in the form of a stock dividend of one share of Emulex Common Stock
for each share of common stock outstanding to stockholders of record on August
16, 1999. All share, per share and related data presented in the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes has been retroactively adjusted to reflect
this stock split. As the par value of the Company's common stock remained at
$0.20 per share, all periods presented reflect a reclass from additional paid-
in capital to common stock.

 Stock Offering

  In the quarter ended June 27, 1999, the Company completed a secondary
offering of 4,630,000 shares of the Company's common stock at a price of
$30.50 per share. The Company received proceeds of $132,838, net of
underwriter's discount and expenses of $8,377.

 Stock Option Plans

  Under the Company's Employee Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"), the exercise
price of options granted will not be less than the fair market value at the
date of grant. The total number of shares of common stock available for grant
under the Plan is 5,560,000. Unless otherwise provided by the Board of
Directors or a committee of the Board administering the Plan, each option
granted under the Plan becomes exercisable at the rate of 25 percent one year
after the date of grant with an additional 6.25 percent becoming exercisable
each three-month interval thereafter.

  On July 6, 1998, the Company's Board of Directors approved a repricing of
outstanding stock options granted under the Emulex Corporation Employee Stock
Option Plan. Employees were able, at their discretion, to reprice outstanding
options with a current option price per share in excess of $3.00 to an
exercise price of $3.00 per share which was the market value on July 6, 1998.
Stock options totaling 1,085,748 shares were repriced. These shares are
included in the amounts granted and canceled during 1999 in the table below.
The vesting schedule of the options which were repriced remained unchanged;
however, no options which have been repriced may be exercised for a period of
12 months, or until July 6, 1999, regardless of prior vesting. This repricing
specifically excluded all options held by Paul F. Folino, the Company's chief
executive officer. Furthermore, this repricing did not apply to any shares
issued under the Director Plan.

  On October 9, 1997, the Company's Board of Directors adopted the Emulex
Corporation 1997 Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the "Director
Plan") which allows for a maximum of 200,000 shares of common stock. The
Director Plan provides that an option to purchase 30,000 shares of common
stock of the Company will be granted to each non-employee director of the
Company upon the first date that such director becomes eligible to
participate. These options shall be exercisable as to one-third of the shares
on each anniversary of the grant if the director is still a director of the
Company. In addition, on each yearly anniversary

            (dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)
of the date of the initial grant, each eligible director shall automatically
be granted an additional option to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock.
These options shall be exercisable as to one-half of the shares on the six
month anniversary, one quarter on the nine month anniversary and one quarter
on the year anniversary of the grant date. Options granted under the Director
Plan are non-qualified stock options. The exercise price per option granted
will not be less than the fair market value at the date of grant. No option
granted under the Director Plan shall be exercisable after the expiration of
the earlier of (i) ten years following the date the option is granted or (ii)
one year following the date the optionee ceases to be a director of the
Company for any reason. Options to purchase 40,000 shares and 120,000 shares
were granted under the Director Plan in 1999 and 1998, respectively.

  Following is a summary of stock option transactions for 1997, 1998 and 1999:

  The Company applies APB Opinon No. 25 and related Interpretations in
accounting for its stock option plans. Accordingly, no compensation cost has
been recognized for its stock options in the consolidated financial
statements. Had the Company determined compensation cost based on the fair
value at the grant date for its stock options under Statement 123, the
Company's net income (loss) would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts

  Pro forma net income (loss) reflects options granted in 1999, 1998, 1997 and
1996. Therefore, the full impact of calculating compensation cost for stock
options under Statement 123 is not reflected in the pro forma net income
(loss) amounts presented above for all periods presented because compensation
cost is reflected over the options' vesting period of up to four years and
compensation cost for options granted prior to July 3, 1995 is not considered.

  The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of grant using
the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

  The Black-Scholes model, as well as other currently accepted option
valuation models, was developed to estimate the fair value of freely-tradable,
fully-transferable options without vesting restrictions, which significantly
differ from the Company's stock option plans. These models also require highly
subjective assumptions, including future stock price volatility and expected
time until exercise, which greatly affect the calculated fair value on the
grant date.

 Shareholder Rights Plan

  The Company has a Shareholder Rights Plan that provides for Preferred Stock
Purchase Rights ("Rights") that attach to and transfer with each share of
common stock. When the Rights become exercisable, each Right entitles the
holder to purchase from the Company one unit consisting of 1/100 of a share of
Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock for $300 per unit, subject to
adjustment. The Rights become exercisable if (i) a person or group ("Acquiring
Person") has acquired, or obtained the right to acquire, 20 percent or more of
the outstanding shares of common stock, (ii) a person becomes the beneficial
owner of 30 percent or more of the outstanding shares of common stock, (iii)
an Acquiring Person engages in one or more "self-dealing" transactions with
the Company or (iv) an event occurs which results in an Acquiring Person's
ownership interest being increased by more than 1 percent. Upon exercise and
payment of the purchase price for the Rights, the

Rights holder (other than an Acquiring Person) will have the right to receive
Company common stock (or, in certain circumstances, cash, property or other
securities of the Company) equal to two times the purchase price. The Company
is entitled to redeem the Rights at any time prior to the expiration of the
Rights in January 2009, or 10 days following the time that a person has
acquired beneficial ownership of 20 percent or more of the shares of common
stock then outstanding. The Company is entitled to redeem the Rights in whole,

  Based on the Company's historical and anticipated future pre-tax results of
operations, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company
will realize the benefit of the net deferred tax assets existing as of June
27, 1999. Management believes the existing net deductible temporary
differences will reverse during periods in which the Company generates net
taxable income; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will
generate any earnings or any specific level of continuing earnings in future
years. Certain tax planning or other strategies could be implemented, if
necessary, to supplement earnings from operations to fully realize recorded
tax benefits.

  Subsequently recognized tax benefits relating to the valuation allowance for
deferred tax assets as of June 27, 1999 will be allocated as follows:

  During 1999, the Company made a tax payment of $50 related to a tax sharing
agreement with QLogic Corporation, a former subsidiary of the Company. In 1998
and 1997, the Company received an income tax benefit in the amount of $188 and
$612, respectively, related to recoveries under the tax sharing agreement.

  At June 27, 1999, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards for
federal income tax purposes of $34,493 which are available to offset future
federal taxable income through 2014 and $3,334 for state purposes available
through 2004. The Company has business credit carryforwards for federal
purposes of approximately $2,500 which are available to reduce federal income
taxes through 2014. In addition, the Company has alternative minimum tax
credit carryforwards of approximately $1,185 which are available to reduce
future federal regular income taxes over an indefinite period. The Company
also has approximately $1,654 of research and experimentation credit
carryforwards for state purposes available through 2014.

  During fiscal year 1999, the Company received a favorable response to the
Ruling Request submitted to the Secretary of the Treasury of Puerto Rico. The
liquidation of the Company's subsidiary, Emulex Caribe, during 1998 was
structured to qualify for tax-free liquidation treatment under the provisions
of both the U.S. and Puerto Rico Internal Revenue Codes. Through its response
to the Ruling Request, the Secretary of the Treasury of Puerto Rico has agreed
that neither Emulex Corporation nor Emulex Caribe will recognize a gain or
loss as a result of the liquidation.

  The Company also received approval of the Closing Agreement submitted to the
Secretary of the Treasury of Puerto Rico. The Secretary agreed to the
Company's calculation of the amount of tollgate tax resulting from the deemed
distribution from Emulex Caribe to the Company as a result of the liquidation.

  The Company is currently undergoing an examination by the California
Franchise Tax Board of the Company's California income tax returns for years
1989, 1990 and 1991. Additionally, Emulex Caribe, the Company's former
subsidiary, is undergoing examination by the Internal Revenue Service of its
1995 tax return. In the opinion of management, these examinations will not
have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial
position, results of operations or liquidity.

Note 13 Net Income (Loss) per Share

  Effective December 28, 1997, the Company adopted Statement 128, "Earnings
per Share." In accordance with Statement 128, primary net income per share has
been replaced with basic net income per share and fully diluted net income per
share has been replaced with diluted net income per share which includes
potentially dilutive securities such as outstanding stock options. Prior
periods have been restated to conform to Statement 128.

  Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing income (loss)
available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is
computed by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period
increased to include, if dilutive, the number of additional common shares that
would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential common shares had been
issued. The dilutive effect of outstanding stock options is reflected in
diluted net income per share by application of the treasury stock method. The
following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income
(loss) per share:

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
                June 27, 1999, June 28, 1998 and June 29, 1997
            (dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)

  Options to purchase 103,100 shares of common stock outstanding at June 27,
1999, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for
the year then ended. Options to purchase 602,900 shares of common stock
outstanding at June 29, 1997, were not included in the computation of diluted
earnings per share for the year then ended. These options were excluded from
the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options' exercise
price was greater than the average market price of the common shares of $16.10
for the year ended June 27, 1999 and $8.10 for the year ended June 29, 1997,
and therefore the effect would be antidilutive. As the Company recorded a net
loss for the year ended June 28, 1998, all 1,918,082 outstanding stock options
were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share, because the
effect would have been antidilutive.

    shipments. (b) Should the Seller fail to meet the scheduled shipment

    --------------
    thirty days of the invoice date to the address shown on the first page
    hereof. Interest at the maximum interest rate permitted by law may be

    dispute. Buyer represents that all sales to Buyer under this Agreement are
    sales for use in production or resale; therefore no sales, use, excise or
    other taxes are due as a result of such sales.

7.  Returned and Defective/Nonconforming Products.  The components which are
    ----------------------------------------------
    manufactured by third parties for assembly into Products shall be considered
    conforming if they meet or exceed the third party manufacturer's published
    specifications and such specifications are approved by Buyer. Products
    manufactured by Seller to Buyer's specifications shall be considered
    conforming if they meet or exceed Buyer's specifications. Seller shall
    warrant products for 1 year for material defects and two years for
    workmanship, from date of manufacture.

    In the event Buyer in good faith believes that Products are defective or
    nonconforming, Buyer shall give written notice to Seller specifying in
    detail the defect or nonconformity of such Products. If notice of defect or
    nonconformity is given timely as provided in this Section, then upon written
                                                      -------
    authorization by Seller, the Products may be returned by Buyer. In order to
    be eligible for a credit or replacement of such Products, Buyer must return
    the Products to Seller, transportation charges prepaid by Buyer, within
    fifteen days of Seller's authorization of return. Acceptance of returned
    Products or authorization of return of Products shall not be deemed as
    Seller's concession or acknowledgment of defect or nonconformity with
    respect to any Products. In any event, Seller shall not accept returned
    Products without Buyer's written statement fully describing the alleged
    defects or nonconformity. If said Product return is determined to be
    defective by Seller, Buyer will be reimbursed for prepaid transportation
    charges for said shipment.
<PAGE>

    If Seller determines that the Products are nonconforming or defective,
    Seller, with the consent of the Buyer, shall either credit Buyer for the
    cost thereof, rework the Products or otherwise replace the Products. If the
    defect or nonconforming nature of the Product was caused by Buyer or its
    agents, employees or subcontractors ( other than Seller), then Buyer shall
    be liable for the cost of rework or replacement and all associated costs
    therewith including, without limitation, transportation charges and
    inspection fees.

    Claims for shortages must be reported within ten days of receipt of the
    Products by Buyer to Seller in order for an adjustment to be considered by
    Seller.

    technical and other proprietary and sensitive information of each party.
    Both parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep confidential
    any and all information concerning customers, trade secrets, methods,
    processes or procedures and any other confidential, financial and business
    information of the other party (Confidential Information) with the same
    standard of care as it uses for its own Confidential Information. Neither
    party shall disclose Confidential Information to any third party without the
    prior written consent of the other party. Confidential information of either
    party hereto shall not include information which (i) is in the public
    domain, (ii) is previously known or independently developed by the receiving
    party by persons not having access to confidential information, (iii) is
    acquired by the receiving party from any third party having a lawful right
    to disclose such information or (iv) the receiving party is obligated to
    produce under a court or governmental order. The parties acknowledge that a
    breach by either party of this Section 11.0 will give rise to irreparable
                                   ------------
    injury to the other, inadequately compensable in damages. Accordingly, the
    parties hereby consent to the obtaining by the other party of injunctive
    relief against the breach or threatened breach of the undertakings of the
    parties contained in this Section 11.0. The parties further agree that such
                              ------------
    an order so enjoining a party may be issued pending final determination
    thereof, without the requirement to post bond.

3.  Buyer's Indemnity.  Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless
    ------------------
    from and against any and all loss, liability or expense, including
    reasonable attorneys' fees, resulting from or arising in connection with any
    claim or suit by Buyer or any third party (i) alleging infringement or
    dilution of any copyright, trademark, trade name, trade secret, patent or
    other third party proprietary rights, relating to the design, manufacture,
    sale, normal use or normal disposition of any Products built to the
    specifications of Buyer, for Buyer or (ii) alleging loss, damages, bodily
    injury, sickness, disease, or death, or injury to property which is caused
    by the negligence or intentional acts of Buyer, its agents, employees or
    subcontractors, except for Seller, or a defect in Buyer specified materials,
    components or design of the Products or caused by Buyer specified suppliers.
    The Seller shall have the right to participate, upon the request of the
    Buyer, in the defense of any such claim or suit, without relieving Buyer of
    any obligations hereunder.

          delayed by the other party or circumstances beyond its reasonable
          control, including, without limitation, an act of God, war, civil

          The happening of any contingency beyond Seller's reasonable control,
          including delays caused by Buyer specified suppliers, shall not
          constitute cause for cancellation of Buyer's order, but shall extend
          Seller's time to ship goods for a period equal to the duration of such
          contingency.

    13.3  Relationship of Parties.  Seller, in providing Products hereunder, is

          any other provision of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be
          construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision were omitted,
          unless the omission of such provision would deprive one of the parties
          of a material benefit of its bargain hereunder.

    13.11 Waiver.  Any waiver of any kind by a party of a breach of this
          -------
          Agreement must be in writing, shall be effective only to the extent

              K*TEC ELECTRONICS CORPORATION AND EMULEX CORPORATION

                             DATED MARCH 12, 1998

The parties agree that the Agreement dated March 12, 1998, referenced above is
amended as follows:

1.   Section 2.2, Purchase Orders, is deleted and replaced with the following:

     2.2  Purchase Orders.  Buyer agrees to provide a firm P.O. (interchangeably
          ----------------
          an "order" or a "P.O.") for the most current 90 day period ("Order
          Period") against such forecast. Each order will be subject to
          acceptance by Seller and once accepted by Seller shall constitute for
          purposes hereof a firm order to purchase such quantities under the
          pricing process defined in Section 2.5 within the agreed upon delivery
          dates and shall be subject to cancellation charges as set forth in
          Section 8.3(b), and Schedule Changes set forth in Section 2.4.  For
          orders placed during the Order Period, Seller shall automatically
          increase the quantity of Products cited in the orders for fibre
          channel products by 5%, and for non-fibre channel products by 2 1/2%.
          Acceptance by Seller of an order in accordance with this Agreement

2.  The following new Section 2.8, Customer Purchase Orders, is added:

          from Buyer, Seller will accept orders directly from Buyer's customers,

          not to exceed eighteen (18) months from Buyer's notice, unless
          mutually agreed.  During this period, Seller will ship and invoice
          directly to the Customer's.  Such orders will be subject to the terms
          and conditions in effect between Buyer and Seller at the time such
          orders are received by Seller.  If Buyer terminates a Customer's right
          to place orders directly with Seller, Buyer will notify Seller of such
          termination concurrently with Buyer's notice to Customer.  In the
          event that a Customer's rights under this section is terminated and
          Seller is notified of such termination, Seller will ship Products for
          orders accepted from that Customer prior to receipt of the notice, but

          REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE  COMPONENTS
          THEREOF, WHICH SELLER DID NOT MANUFACTURE.  SELLER SPECIFICALLY
          DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN FACT OR BY OPERATION

                           MASTER PURCHASE AGREEMENT

                                    BETWEEN

                         K*TEC ELECTRONICS CORPORATION

                              EMULEX CORPORATION

                  AMENDMENT EFFECTIVE DATE: FEBRUARY 1, 1999


The parties agree that the above referenced Agreement is amended to include the
following as a new Section 14:

14.  Electronic Data Interchange

     14.1  Purpose

           Seller and Buyer hereby agree to establish a system of Electronic
           Data Interchange ("EDI") whereby communication and/or transactions
           between Seller and Buyer can be accomplished through electronic
           means, rather than by writing on paper. All communications and/or
           transactions between the parties effected by means of third party
           public data networks, diskettes transmitted between parties, or other
           electronic means shall be subject to this Amendment. All EDI between
           the parties hereunder shall be transmitted and formatted in
           accordance with the American National Standards Institute Business
           Data Interchange (ANSI X.12) Standard identified by number, version,
           and date.

     14.2  EDI Operations

           14.2.1  Technical operational details necessary to implement the EDI
                   relationship contemplated herein, such as defining
                   transaction standards and sets and selection of third party
                   networks, shall be mutually agreed upon and followed by the
                   parties in good faith using reasonable efforts. Such
                   operational details need not be signed as a supplement to
                   this Amendment. Each party must acquire a user identification
                   number ("User-ID") to transmit and receive EDI transmissions.
                   As soon as is practicable after execution of this Amendment,
                   each party shall notify the other party in writing of its
                   User-ID. Each party shall take commercially reasonable steps
                   to safeguard access to its User-ID, including, without
                   limitation, preventing any employee, representative, or agent
                   from disclosing its User-ID to unauthorized third parties.


<PAGE>

           14.2.2  An EDI transmission shall be deemed received when the network
                   delivers such document to the receiving party's network
                   mailbox. If such delivery occurs on a weekend or holiday,
                   receipt shall be deemed to occur on the next business day.
                   Upon proper receipt of a transmission, the receiving party
                   shall promptly transmit an acknowledgment confirming that
                   such transmission has been received. The acknowledgment shall
                   also be used to notify the sender that the receiver does or
                   does not accept the substance of the received transmission.

     14.3  EDI Transaction Enforceability

           The parties agree that all rights, duties and obligations which would
           accrue upon receipt of data in the form of paper documentation shall
           also accrue upon receipt of the data in electronic form via EDI. A
           transmission containing a User-ID or other company identifier will be
           considered a "writing" or "in writing" and to have been "signed," as
           such terms are used in the California Uniform Commercial Code. Any
           computer printout of such EDI transmission will be considered to be
           an "original" when maintained in the normal course of business and
           will be legally admissible as between the parties to the same extent
           and under the same conditions as other business records maintained in
           documentary form, including, without limitation, with regard to the
           business records exception to the hearsay rule, the best evidence
           rule, or the Statute of Frauds.

     14.4  Third Party Public Data Network Use; Equipment

           Unless otherwise agreed, each Buyer is responsible for establishing
           its own agreements with third party networks ("Network"). Unless
           otherwise agreed, connect time and any other charges of such Network
           shall be paid by the party initiating each communication. Each party
           shall provide and maintain at its own expense the equipment,
           software, services, and testing necessary to effectively and reliably
           transmit and receive transmissions hereunder.

     14.5  Transmission Errors

           Each party shall have in place reasonable controls to assure timely
           handling of EDI transmissions and to promptly contact the sending
           agent for corrective action in the event of a transmission error.

     14.6  Security Duties

           Each party is solely responsible for the selection, implementation,
           and maintenance of appropriate security products, tools, tests, and
           procedures sufficient to meet its requirements for protecting its
           programs and data from improper access, loss, alteration, or
           destruction.

     14.7  Year 2000 Compliance

           14.7.1  "Year 2000 Compliance" requires that each product accurately
                   processes date data (including, but not limited to,
                   calculating, comparing,


<PAGE>

                   sequencing, storing, and rendering) from, into, during, and
                   between the 20th and 21st centuries, including leap year
                   calculations, and will not malfunction or produce any invalid
                   or incorrect results due to dates on or after January 1,
                   2000. Year 2000 Compliance includes, without limitation, date
                   data century recognition, calculations that accommodate same
                   century and multi-century formulas and date values, and date
                   data interface values that correctly reflect the century.

           14.7.2  All EDI transmissions provided hereunder that specify,
                   involve, or include calculations using year dates from or
                   after the year 2000 shall meet the requirements of Year 2000
                   Compliance as defined above, insofar as the equipment owned
                   and controlled by each party is Year 2000 Compliant. Neither
                   party shall be liable to the other in any way for failure to
                   achieve Year 2000 Compliance resulting from non-compliant
                   equipment or software owned or controlled solely by its
                   selected Network. If a party's Network is found not to be
                   Year 2000 Compliant, that party shall take commercially
                   reasonable steps to resolve such non-compliance, including
                   but not limited to selecting a Network that is Year 2000
                   Compliant. During such time, the parties shall work together
                   in good faith to continue doing business under the Agreement
                   using other means of communications as agreed between the
                   parties.

2.   Except as amended above, all terms and conditions of the Agreement remain
     in full force and effect.


IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Amendment to be executed by
their duly authorized representatives.

       This LOAN AGREEMENT dated August 24, 1999, between SILICON VALLEY BANK
("Bank"), whose address is 3003 Tasman Drive, Santa Clara, California 95054 with
a loan production office located at 38 Technology Drive, Suite 150, Irvine,
California  92618 and EMULEX CORPORATION, A DELAWARE CORPORATION and EMULEX
CORPORATION, A CALIFORNIA CORPORATION ("Borrower") provides the terms on which
Bank will lend to Borrower and Borrower will repay Bank. The parties agree as
follows:

1      ACCOUNTING AND OTHER TERMS
       --------------------------

       Accounting terms not defined in this Agreement will be construed
following GAAP. Calculations and determinations must be made following GAAP. The
term "financial statements" includes the notes and schedules. The terms
"including" and "includes" always mean "including (or includes) without
limitation," in this or any Loan Document. This Agreement shall be construed to
impart upon Bank a duty to act reasonably at all times.

2      LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT
       -------------------------

2.1    Credit Extensions.

       Borrower will pay Bank the unpaid principal amount of all Credit
Extensions and interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Credit Extensions.

2.1.1  Revolving Advances.

       (a) Bank will make Advances not exceeding (i) the Committed Revolving
Line, minus (ii) the Cash Management Services Sublimit, minus (iii) the amount
of all outstanding Letters of Credit (including drawn but unreimbursed Letters
of Credit), minus (iv) the ACH Sublimit, minus (v) the outstandings under the
outstanding SCS transactions. Amounts borrowed under this Section may be repaid
and reborrowed during the term of this Agreement.

       (b) To obtain an Advance, Borrower must notify Bank by facsimile or
telephone by 3:00 p.m. Pacific time on the Business Day the Advance is to be
made.  Borrower must promptly confirm the notification by delivering to Bank the
Payment/Advance Form attached as Exhibit A.  Bank will credit Advances to
Borrower's deposit account.  Bank may make Advances under this Agreement based
on instructions from a Responsible Officer or his or her designee or without
instructions if the Advances are necessary to meet Obligations which have become
due.  Bank may rely on any telephone notice given by a person whom Bank believes
is a Responsible Officer or designee. Borrower will indemnify Bank for any loss
Bank suffers due to such reliance.

       (c) The Committed Revolving Line terminates on the Revolving Maturity
Date, when all Advances are immediately payable.

2.1.2  Letters of Credit.

       Bank will issue or have issued Letters of Credit for Borrower's account
not exceeding (i) the Committed Revolving Line minus (ii) the outstanding
principal balance of the Advances minus the Cash Management Sublimit; however,
the face amount of outstanding Letters of Credit (including drawn but
unreimbursed Letters of Credit and any Letter of Credit Reserve) may not exceed
$1,000,000. Each Letter of Credit will have an expiry date of no later than 180
days after the Revolving Maturity Date, but Borrower's reimbursement obligation
will be secured by cash on terms acceptable to Bank at any time after the
Revolving Maturity Date if the term of this Agreement is not extended by Bank.
Borrower agrees to execute any further documentation in connection with the
Letters of Credit as Bank may reasonably request.

2.1.3  Cash Management Services Sublimit.

       Borrower may use up to $50,000 for Bank's Cash Management Services, which
may include merchant services, direct deposit of payroll, business credit card,
and check cashing services identified in various cash management services
agreements related to such services (the "Cash Management Services").  All
amounts Bank pays for any Cash Management Services will be treated as Advances
under the Committed Revolving Line.

2.1.4  ACH Sublimit.

       Borrower may use up to $500,000 for direct deposit of payroll, ACH
services (the "ACH Sublimit"). All amounts Bank pays for any Cash Management
Services will be treated as Advances under the Committed Revolving Line.

2.1.5  Supply Chain Sublimit.

       Borrower may use up to $2,000,000 for commercial transactions with the
Supply Chain Services (SCS) Division of the Bank.  The aggregate of such
transactions will reduce the availability of the Committed Revolving Line and
the Borrowing Base by an equal amount for as long as the SCS transactions remain
outstanding.

2.2    Overadvances.

       If Borrower's Obligations under Section 2.1.1, 2.1.2, 2.1.3, 2.1.4 and
2.1.5 exceed the Committed Revolving Line, Borrower must immediately pay in cash
to Bank the excess.

2.3    Interest Rate, Payments.

       (a) Interest Rate.  Advances accrue interest on the outstanding principal
balance at a per annum rate of 0.5 percentage points above the Prime Rate.
After an Event of Default, Obligations accrue interest at 5 percent above the
rate effective immediately before the Event of Default. The interest rate
increases or decreases when the Prime Rate changes.  Interest is computed on a
360 day year for the actual number of days elapsed.

       (b) Payments.  Interest due on the Committed Revolving Line is payable on
the last day of each month.  Bank may debit any of Borrower's deposit accounts
including Account Number 0600592670 for principal and interest payments owing or
any amounts Borrower owes Bank. Bank will promptly notify Borrower when it
debits Borrower's accounts. These debits are not a set-off. Payments received
after 12:00 noon Pacific time are considered received at the opening of business
on the next Business Day. When a payment is due on a day that is not a Business
Day, the payment is due the next Business Day and additional fees or interest
accrue.

2.4    Fees.

       Borrower will pay:

       (a) Facility Fee.  A fully earned, non-refundable Facility Fee of
$14,062.50 due on the Closing Date; and

       (b) Bank Expenses. All Bank Expenses (including reasonable attorneys'
fees and reasonable expenses) incurred through and after the date of this
Agreement, are payable when due.

7      EVENTS OF DEFAULT
       -----------------

       Any one of the following is an Event of Default:

7.1    Payment Default.

       If Borrower fails to pay any of the Obligations within 3 days after their
due date.  During the 3 day period the failure to cure the default is not an
Event of Default (but no Credit Extension will be made during the cure period);

7.2    Covenant Default.

       If Borrower does not perform any obligation in Section 5 or violates any
covenant in Section 6 or does not perform or observe any other material term,
condition or covenant in this Agreement, any Loan Documents, or in any agreement
between Borrower and Bank and as to any default under a term, condition or
covenant that can be cured, has not cured the default within 10 days after it
occurs, or if the

                                       9
<PAGE>

default cannot be cured within 10 days or cannot be cured after Borrower's
attempts within 10 day period, and the default may be cured within a reasonable
time, then Borrower has an additional period (of not more than 30 days) to
attempt to cure the default. During the additional time, the failure to cure the
default is not an Event of Default (but no Credit Extensions will be made during
the cure period);

7.3    Material Adverse Change.

       If the Bank determines, based upon information available to it and in the
exercise of its reasonable judgment, that there is a reasonable likelihood that
Borrower will fail to comply with one or more of the financial covenants set
forth in Section 5 during the next succeeding financial reporting period.

7.4    Attachment.

       If any material portion of Borrower's assets is attached, seized, levied
on, or comes into possession of a trustee or receiver and the attachment,
seizure or levy is not removed in 10 days, or if Borrower is enjoined,
restrained, or prevented by court order from conducting a material part of its
business or if a judgment or other claim becomes a Lien on a material portion of
Borrower's assets, or if a notice of lien, levy, or assessment is filed against
any of Borrower's assets by any government agency and not paid within 10 days
after Borrower receives notice.  These are not Events of Default if stayed or if
a bond is posted pending contest by Borrower (but no Credit Extensions will be
made during the cure period);

7.5    Insolvency.

       If Borrower becomes insolvent or if Borrower begins an Insolvency
Proceeding or an Insolvency Proceeding is begun against Borrower and not
dismissed or stayed within 30 days (but no Credit Extensions will be made before
any Insolvency Proceeding is dismissed);

7.6    Other Agreements.

       If there is a default in any agreement between Borrower and a third party
that gives the third party the right to accelerate any Indebtedness exceeding
$100,000 or that could cause a Material Adverse Change;

7.7    Judgments.

       If a money judgment(s) in the aggregate of at least $50,000 is rendered
against Borrower and is unsatisfied and unstayed for 10 days (but no Credit
Extensions will be made before the judgment is stayed or satisfied); or

7.8    Misrepresentations.

       If Borrower or any Person acting for Borrower makes any material

8      BANK'S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES
       --------------------------

8.1    Rights and Remedies.

       When an Event of Default occurs and continues Bank may, without notice or
demand, do any or all of the following:

       (a) Declare all Obligations immediately due and payable (but if an Event
of Default described in Section 7.5 occurs all Obligations are immediately due

this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and Bank;

8.2    Remedies Cumulative.

       Bank's rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Loan Documents, and
all other agreements are cumulative.  Bank has all rights and remedies provided
by law, or in equity. Bank's exercise of one right or remedy is not an election,
and Bank's waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. Bank's
delay is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence. No waiver is effective unless
signed by Bank and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose
for which it was given.

8.3    Demand Waiver.

       Borrower waives demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment
and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release,
compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents,
instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees held by Bank on which Borrower is
liable.

9.2    Subrogation and Similar Rights.

       Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, each Borrower irrevocably waives all rights that it may have at law or
in equity (including, without limitation, any law subrogating the Borrower to
the rights of Bank under the Loan Documents) to seek contribution,
indemnification, or any other form of reimbursement from any other Borrower, or
any other Person now or hereafter primarily or secondarily liable for any of the
Obligations, for any payment made by the Borrower with respect to the
Obligations in connection with the Loan Documents or otherwise and all rights
that it might have to benefit from, or to participate in, any security for the
Obligations as a result of any payment made by the Borrower with respect to the
Obligations in connection with the Loan Documents or

                                       11
<PAGE>

otherwise. Any agreement providing for indemnification, reimbursement or any
other arrangement prohibited under this Section 9.2 shall be null and void. If
any payment is made to a Borrower in contravention of this Section 9.2, such
Borrower shall hold such payment in trust for Bank and such payment shall be
promptly delivered to Bank for application to the Obligations, whether matured
or unmatured.

9.3    Waivers of Notice.

       Each Borrower waives notice of acceptance hereof; notice of the
existence, creation or acquisition of any of the Obligations; notice of an Event
of Default; notice of the amount of the Obligations outstanding at any time;
notice of intent to accelerate; notice of acceleration; notice of any adverse
change in the financial condition of any other Borrower or of any other fact
that might increase the Borrower's risk; presentment for payment; demand;
protest and notice thereof as to any instrument; default; and all other notices
and demands to which the Borrower would otherwise be entitled. Each Borrower
waives any defense arising from any defense of any other Borrower, or by reason
of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of any other
Borrower. Bank's failure at any time to require strict performance by any
Borrower of any provision of the Loan Documents shall not waive, alter or
diminish any right of Bank thereafter to demand strict compliance and
performance therewith. Nothing contained herein shall prevent Bank from
foreclosing on the Lien of any deed of trust, mortgage or other security
instrument, or exercising any rights available thereunder, and the exercise of
any such rights shall not constitute a legal or equitable discharge of any
Borrower. Each Borrower also waives any defense arising from any act or omission
of Bank that changes the scope of the Borrower's risks hereunder. Each Borrower
hereby waives any right to assert against Bank any defense (legal or equitable),
setoff, counterclaim, or claims that such Borrower individually may now or
hereafter have against another Borrower or any other Person liable to Borrower
with respect to the Obligations in any manner or whatsoever.

9.4    Subrogation Defenses.

       Each Borrower hereby waives any defense based on impairment or
destruction of its subrogation or other rights against any other Borrower and
waives all benefits which might otherwise be available to it under California
Civil Code Sections 2809, 2810, 2819, 2839, 2845, 2848, 2850, 2899 and 3433 and
California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 580a, 580b, 580d and 726, as those
statutory provisions are now in effect and hereafter amended, and under any
other similar statutes now and hereafter in effect.

9.5    Right to Settle, Release.

       (a) The liability of Borrowers hereunder shall not be diminished by (i)
any agreement, understanding or representation that any of the Obligations is or
was to be guaranteed by another Person or secured by other property, or (ii) any
release or unenforceability, whether partial or total, or rights, if any, which
Borrower may now or hereafter have against any other Person, including another
Borrower, or property with respect to any of the Obligations.

       (b) Without notice to any Borrower and without affecting the liability of
any Borrower hereunder, Bank may (i) compromise, settle, renew, extend the time
for payment, change the manner or terms of payment, discharge the performance
of, decline to enforce, or release all or any of the Obligations with respect to
a Borrower, (ii) grant other indulgences to a Borrower in respect of the
Obligations, (iii) modify in any manner any documents, relating to the
Obligations with respect to a Borrower, (iv) release, surrender or exchange any
deposits or other property securing the Obligations, whether pledged by a
Borrower or any other Person, or (v) compromise, settle renew, or extend the
time for payment, discharge the performance of, decline to enforce, or release
all or any obligations of any guarantor, endorser or other Person who is now or
may hereafter be liable with respect to any of the Obligations.
